Just wondering is there a way to do a backup of my stock showcase before flashing roms as I had problems on last phone with Bluetooth once going to froyo and wanted to try with the new showcase but just in case had problems I could go back also does anyone know why the Bluetooth would disconnect and phone would vibrate and could never reconnect without repairing. Any help is appreciated

I always use Nandroid in CWM. That's has been the best way for me to backup and restore my phone. I'm sure there is other options but that's the one I use. As far as bluetooth. I have noticed in a lot of the ROM threads that some do have issues with bluetooth. Some of the ROMs are not 100% complete and are still a work in progress. Hope this helps.

Why does my wifi connection disconnects and connects a lot? I am on cm7 but I know it's not a rom issue because it was also happening when I was on infused 2.2.3. I'm on the j2 leaked modem, but it also happened when I was on the i3 modem or the i4, I forget which.
I don't believe it's my router, because there's a solid signal when I test it on the laptop and on our roku.
What do you think the problem is and how can I fix it?
Thank you in advance.
Edit: I am coming from the Jordan's j2 rom. It first started happening on the infused rom. Restored back to stock and went onto the infused froyo. Haven't had a problem on that rom. Then j2 came out and flashed that. All was good until last night. Flashed cm7 this morning and made sure I did a full wipe. It's still happening.

Any ideas? Did a full wipe and flashed cm7 again. Back on i3 and still the same. Restored my apps without data through tibu.

I have the same issue. Stock unrooted.

Yeah. It's getting annoying. Lol ill try to go back to stock using gtg's ultimate unbrick. It worked last time I did that.

Okay so what I am noticing is that the wifi on my phone is constantly scanning for connection. and when it finds my wifi, it tries to connect with it, even if it is already connect. so it forces it to disconnect, then connect again.
anybody know how to stop this?
I'm stock and don't have the issue, also have tried Infused/GSInfuse and didn't have the issue, though I didn't stick with either of them for more than a few days before going back to stock. I use mine on wifi at home and work without problems at all.
Hmm yeah I don't know why it's doing it. It didn't do it before. I'm still trying to figure it out.

Maybe try FXR WIFI Fix and Rescue

Cm7 does that that's why I don't run it

It was happening before cm7 so I know it's not a rom issue. Started to happen in infused and carried into the gb leaks. Stopped for a while, and it's happening again.

Update: wow so far my wifi hasn't disconnected on me yet. So I'm guessing it's is something with the system binaries or whatever you want to call it. Before it would keep scanning and force to disconnect and try to connect again with my router. Still testing but so far so good. I would recommend that app to anybody who's having the same problem as I was.

I'm currently running Alien build 5 and I currently do not have access to my data connection. I've used Alien 5 without issue and I recently flashed Faux's OC kernal. I had the data connection for a little while then it disappeared. Wifi works fine but the only way I am able to get my hspa+ or lte working is by reflashing the Alien rom and starting over from scratch. Why do I keep losing my data connection? Any help is truly appreciated! Thanks!

Are you making sure your apn setings are correct? And do u have roaming enabled
problem may be the operator?
in some places the reception is different
or it might be misconfigured apn
How can I be sure my apn is correctly configured? Also I double checked and no roaming isn't inabled.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I noticed I was able to get data back after a fresh reflash then lost it after I restored everything with Titanium backup. I chose to just restore my apps instead of everything and I was able to keep the data connection working. I'm still a little confused as to what was causing this but hopefully this'll help someone else out.

When you stated you did not restore everything, did you previously restore system data? You should never restore system data only apps and their data. Anything else will screw up your ROM
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes I restored system data as well. I assume thats where the problem arose.

Flashed my new G2X this morning, backed up my Stock build, and started playing with ROMs. Each time I installed a ROM, I could not get data. Everytime I restored my stock build, data resumed. This must be an easy fix.
Tried CM7.2 Stable, Hellfire Phoenix, and Eaglesblood.
What did I miss? TIA.
Check your APN. Hit restore default and it'll load them.

Brilliant. Thanks much. Figured it was something easy.
So, I've noticed that after a given reboot, the APN's will disappear. Restore to default does nothing, but if I reboot again they will come back. Is this common?

Never had a problem with APNs going missing myself. I'm on Wind in Canada though so there's the off chance that makes a slight difference. Doubtful though.

Anyways, Ever since I've upgraded to ICS, I've been having serious cell-related network connection problems on my tmobile iemi-unlocked atrix 2, mb865(NOT Wi-Fi connectivity problems.) My signal is constantly going from 5-1 bars (several times a minute) in places where I previously experienced a solid 5 bars with gingerbread and my (also unlocked, on tmobile) iPhone 2g. Also, my carrier logo is disappearing and reappearing many times a minute as well. (Even when I have 5 bars.) Sometimes , I just get a red triangle with a white cross inside of it where the bars should be.
Sometimes, these problems are temporarily fixed when I enter airplane mode for a few seconds, then exit it. But within 15 minutes of exiting, I begin experiencing the same problems. Other times, they aren't fixed through entering/exiting airplane mode , and I have to reboot the device.
My question is, will installing a rom perhaps fix these problems? Since my network was fine on gingerbread, it's obviously not a hardware problem. I'm rooted, of course (but before rooting I experienced these problems as well.)
I obtained the iemi through at&t and not a shady third party unlocking business, if that makes any difference.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Well it can't hurt to try a new rom.... wait it can haha but yes sometime even a factory restore can fix a lot of random issues. My buddy was running stock gingerbread on his phone and it had a messed up usb port. I then put CM7 on it and it worked magically so it is a possibility. I am currently running numa and it fixed my wifi issue where it would randomly turn off. But I think a good old factory restore could maybe fix it,
Try changing network selection from automatic to either 2g or 3g..it worked for me on my searet ota..

Alright! I guess I'll try the restore first. Do you think it'll wipe my unlock? And I have titanium backup, so after I restore I can just restore things from it?

I tried, and selected T-Mobile. It then said 'registering for tmobile'. I backed out though because i got scared i was screwing something up. Am I supposed to see this?

I believe your unlock will be there still. I could be wrong though. And if you have a sdcard it will be unaffected by the factory restore and new ROMs. But its a good idea to back it up every blue moon. And yes you can get your apps and app data back with titanium backup. Make sure it stores to sdcard and the same with ROMs.

I guess. Does the warranty last for a year?
Also, I backed up to titanium, did a factory reset, and restored from titanium. I still have the same problem. Could I possibly freeze some apps (using Gemini app manager) that involve the sim card? Would that avail to anything?

Yes. At least in my country the warranty is for one year. But, if you bought it the phone with the two year contract i think, the warranty should last two years.
And the other thing, i have no idea man. Sorry. I never experienced that, and i don't know what happen there. But, my advice is that you must go to the warranty and try.

I see :0 since I'm not even a customer of at&t, would I still be able to reap the benefits of warranty? And I don't have the receipt or anything (as I said, I got the phone from a trade with a friend.)

Can I install ics leak #1 over my stock ics? And then go back to stock gingerbread, where I didn't have any problems? I've searched and found that a straight downgrade from stock ics to stock gb will brick you, but leak #1 to stock gb is fine :0

No! You will brick your phone. OTA ICS bootloader is not the same as leak #1. Try another FDR but do NOT restore from TB.

So just to be sure of the process:
1)download link under the 9/26 update to root of SD card
2)enter boot menu
3) install it from there? :0
Sorry I'm kinda confused by this rom stuff (I read the noob guide, but still.)
