[Q] Wifi Error

Sorry if this has already been posted.
My phone is rooted on stock rom.
It started freezing up and wouldnt send text messages. GO sms locked me out. I had to take the battery out and restart several times. Now i cant connect to any wifi. In wifi settings it just says error. Any ideas what could be wrong?

your best bet is probably to flash back to stock OS...i dunno if there is a one click for inspire
or you could flash a rom :]...this was probably a weird glitch that would go away with a simple full flash

Why not start with doing a factory reset?

I think he already did that, but if that doesn't work, try restoring your entire phone to stock...idk if there is a one click Odin for inspire like there is for Galaxy S models

Thats what I was thinking about doing. Will try that this weekend when I have time. Thanks!

There's a guide stickied to this section that believe has the link to the RUU, which is what you might try, though I think going the RUU route will unroot you.

Full wipe reflash should do it.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App

yep I would try wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe delvik cache and a clean install of the rom

Flashed CoreDroid didnt fix the problem

would flashing a new radio fix the problem?

Did you have any luck with this? Im having the same issue and debating whether or not I should flash back to stock to see if this resolves the issue. I have flashed countless ROMs since root with no luck.

My phone is doing the same thing. Not sure when it started doing it since I don't use wifi often. I wanted to check for updates and the HTC one requires WIFI be on, thats how I found out.
My phone is completely stock, with only Apps installed. Factory reset made it say something about connecting for 10 seconds or so before saying error, and now once again it just says error every time i try to enable it.

Data and text issues on all roms after ICS!

After flashing hellfire ICS I wasnt able to recieve any texts. I then flashed Hellfire cm7 and still same issue, also tried eaglesblood. I then tried getril, it wasnt matching but updating it didnt do anything. Now I just flashed 2.3.3 and text is working but I have no data. With every flash I wiped everything and used g2x scrubber. Also I tried using different APN...What can I do to fix this?

So, you reverted to a non 4.0.3 rom and the issue still persist, like a GB 2.3.7 rom?

yea
Yea, last night I flashed a eaglesblood over 2.3.3, this time manualy wiping and not using scrubber..and it worked, I was able to use data and recieve texts. But now it just stopped working and I am unable to recieve texts again. I have fixed permissions, cleared caches, and tried all the RIL in getril. Why would it randomly stop working??? this is so annoying
..BTW i restored only a few apps with titanium and did not restore any of the data, just apps.

Maybe try flashing a new baseband and then going into your apn list and restoring default apns.
Could possibly be a sim card problem or sim card reader hardware issue... dont wanna jump to the worst possible scenario tho..

I have the jul 15 baseband, isnt that the latest? Idk if it would be hardware since everything was good before I flashed ics .

When you flash, are you wiping data, cache, dalvik cache, and system before flashing?

Yea, I wipe data,cache, dalvik, then format system, then flash rom which is on root of sd card.
Is there anything else I can delete/format when installing a rom? What data is being retained that I have this issue with every rom?
update: Just flashed bionix 2.3.3 rom with stock kernel and everything is working, its like it works only when it wants to..ill try a cm7 rom again later.

you aren't the first to report the same exact thing... I'm waiting for jboxer or another dev to say something... it might have something to do with T-Mobile or your SIM... have you tried entering your number manually... have you tried without data connected or on wifi?

Didn't hear the mention of g2x scrubber always a good thing...

Something I would do would be to...
Download Rom/Gapps
Unzip to make sure it's complete and uncorrupted DL
CWM Recovery
Wipe Data/Cache/System/Davlik/BattStats
G2xScrubber (In case)
Install Rom
Install Gapps
Wipe Cache/Davlik/BattStats
Fix Permissions
Boot let it sit quick..
Hard Reboot (Power + Volume Up)
Edit: For some ICS Roms sometimes you have to enable data or toggle it on/off for it to work.

[DONE] Fix for "Preparing Sim Card..." Error for CleanROM

Hey,
Starting this thread up as a place to figure out the "Preparing Sim Card" problem.
Essentially, if you flash CleanROM 4.1 with CWM, you'll probably get this error. There were plethora of fixes out there, such as:
1. Clearing all cache (fastboot/recovery)
2. Clearing all data/force stopping problem apps (people/dialer/messaging)
3. RUUing back to stock
4. Flashing a new radio
5. Removing/Changing SIM cards
6. Trying dialer trick:
.....a. Go to Dialer (if you can't access it, clear the data in it first)
.....b. dial *#*#4636#*#*
.....c. Turn off the radio
.....d. Turn on the radio, and right as the toast appears, choose something from the drop down menu.
.....e. Run a ping test to make sure everything's alright.
7. Used TWRP to clear system/flash new ROM
8. Tried another ROM with GSM Patch
CURRENT STATUS: WORKING!!!! =D
The answer to all your problems issss........
Well, it's multi-step
1. Make sure to flash back via RUU (preferably 1.82 since 1.85 was a b**** for me to re-root T_T)
2. Make sure to unlock your bootloader again
3. Install back CWM (I know...wtf?!) <<THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT (believe it or not)
4. Go back and flash CleanMOD 3.1 or something (just anything below 4.1 should do the trick) [if just installing CleanMOD doesn't work, install the GSM Patch too!]
5. NOW install TWRP
6. Install CleanMOD 4.1
7. SUCCESS!!!
Also, thanks to tehdef, who also tried this method:
Here is what I did to break my phone.
I had the following MODS.
-AOKP 6.1
-CWM
Decided I wanted to test something on CleanROM 4.1
- Flashed CR4.1 in CWM
Got stuck in Boot Cycle and CWM would not load
1. Locked Bootloader
2. Installed 1.85 Evita RUU
3. Unlocked Bootloader
4. Installed TWRP
5. Flashed AOKP 6.1
At this point, I still had an issue. Instead of receiving the "Preparing SIM" Message, I had absolutely zero signal, and I could not "SAVE" an APN.
6. Rebooted to Bootloader
7. Reset to Factory while in AOKP
8. TWRP Loads
9. Reboot to System
My phone now has signal and full contacts and I can make calls and send Texts and MMS with no additional modifications. Please note that with AOKP Superuser comes installed and works just fine, so for whatever reason I did not have to root my device.
NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE CLEANROM 3.1 IN ORDER TO GET BACK TO A WORKING STATE!!! Just any rom supporting the unofficial CWM should do. =] (at least I think so, but I'll confirm when someone get's back to me =D)
Thanks goes out to...
Scott for his awesome ROMs and his life lessons
kleeman7 for toughing it out and helping me through the entire thing
tehdef for helping me test out several of my theories
shackman716 for suggesting the idea that worked (it was so crazy it actually worked! XD)
and thanks goes out to anyone I forgot to mention. XD
Now, back to more ROM flashing

scrosler specifically states not to use CWM to flash his ROM. Have you tried TWRP?

We are well past that point, redpoint. We've already flashed, and now things aren't working correctly.
In my specific case, XDA Mobile didn't Bold/Red the text to use TWRP instead of CWM, so when I flashed and attempted to boot, I got stuck in a boot cycle. I went back to try to get into recovery, and it wouldn't even go there. So I re-locked, and flashed the 1.85 RUU.
Now I'm getting the same 'Preparing' issue only when I attempt to open up Phone, Contacts, Messaging, all on the stock RUU while being Locked.
I can't even attempt to re-flash the Stock RUU because I'm getting Error 170 on the RUU installer.
This majorly sucks.

Error 170 is a usb communication error and is fixable. Turn off HTC sync. Check for it in running processes. If you still get the error reboot to the bootloader make sure the phone says fastboot usb in red then start the ruu.

The OP never stated any of that, and it doesn't seem that he is stuck in the same way you are. So I was asking if he tried to flash TWRP, and then reflash the ROM. Which is not listed as one of his "possible fixes".

I had the same error. I believe I was able to reproduce it by adding my Google Play Account then adding my gmail account (with the same email address) using Activesync. Right after adding my gmail account I would get an application crash (cant recall which one) the phone would reboot and go into a reboot cycle when "Preparing Sim Card". To avoid the issue I did the following:
1. Wipe System, Wipe Data
2. Flash CleanROM 4.1 DE
3. Wipe Cache
4. Install Mods
5. Boot up, add Google Account from the setup wizard
6. Turn on Auto-Sync from Wizard
7. Go into Settings > Accounts > Uncheck sync Email,Contacts, Calendar
8. Clear Data for Email, Contacts, Calendar apps.
9. Add gmail via Activesync w/ Email/Contact/Calendar sync

Well, I tried emailing and stuff, and it seems anything regarding data seems to be alright. It just seems to be the issue with phone/sms data now. I believe it's something software related as it still reads my sim just fine, and it recognizes when it gets a call. Just when I get a call, it repeatedly FCs. I might give it a try though, so thanks!

Sorry, I had to go out for lunch, so I didn't really go into much detail. I have tried using TWRP and is still using that atm, and also tried flashing a rom with GSM Patch, which I'll edit the OP to match. Both of these did not work and I'm going to try and pull a logcat or something. Will update when I get it

Just got mine to flash. I noticed though that for whatever reason my current 1.85 had an _r2 at the end, and the one I'm flashing does not. Curious if ATT network is rejecting due to the RUU version.
Guess we will find out when it's done.
Edit: Nope, nada... Same issue.
Curious though why none of my contacts sync. seems like this is a contacts issue for me.

i feel like the dialer and the contacts are linked together. if we can solve one, we can probably solve both. I looked in my catlog and they stated that they couldnt find a particular file/db in the /data/data folder. ill look into this and see what happens

Did either of you try flashing a different rom like xi40, or sick sense, and do a system, cache, dalvik, factory reset, wipe from twrp before you flash a rom, and see how that goes

I'll be trying it in a bit so i'll update back when i test it out
...actually, tehdef, did you ever unlock your bootloader with the one-click without HTCDEV unlock at any point in time? This might help me out cause this might also be the problem. Thanks!

Unfortunately the Android.acore process has stopped when I tried to sync my Gmail contacts after clearing everything.

I'm having the exact same issues. I've usually been able to figure out all my own screw ups but just not this time. I too flashed cleanrom 4.1 using cwm because i failed at reading the directions. Got stuck at recovery and was able to install a 1.85 ruu and them proceeded to put twrp on it and flash cleanrom 4.1. Everything seemed fine but then i noticed that my xfinity email would open and and then quickly close. Didn't think much of it, but then i realized that also the phone and contacts do the same thing. I've tried everything but holy water to get this fixed including trying other roms, fixing permissions in recovery, clearing phone and contacts data, deleting db.journal file, and shaking the phone really hard....
Any ideas?

Something is corrupt.
I want to put AOKP back on the phone, because I honestly think it's Sense related.

lol at the shaking your phone really hard XD
Anyways, I have a theory:
there are two ways we COULD possibly fix this:
1. obtain a rom that has root. Get root explorer or somehow get into /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/ and delete .db-journal if its in there. Do this in conjunction with clearing out the data of all the affected apps and their sister apps (i.e. Contacts, Contacts Storage, Contacts Sync) and force stopping all of them. Can't test this cause bootloader refuses to unlock atm)
2.lock the bootloader, RUU to 1.82 (NOTE: NOT 1.85!) and try to unlock using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734558. REMEMBER take out your SIM card! but maybe this might help not 100% sure if this is what caused it for me, so it's best to consider it too. Can't test this right now because I am stuck without a BL unlock and i can't get root on this firmware
*EDIT* ahahhahahah i lied. no sim card needed, so why would it rely on mobile data? ahh im such a silly person alright here goes!
i'll let you know when i get out of my pickle, but it might be a while. That, or i might just get pissed off enough to just go to the store and look like an idiot cause i really do feel like one right now and I need to get the phone working T_T
Keep checking back!

Cant call, but can text

It's very strange. I can send/recieve text just fine, i can even use data. Just when I call, I can't hear anything at all even when volume it at its highest. People recieve the calls, but can't hear me. Some thing when people call me. Any I ideas?

Need more information....stock ...rooted....on custom rom if so which one? some have calling issues.

Considering that every ROM in the development section has calling working, I'd say try deleting cache and dalvik and if that doesn't work then re flash.

I have the same problem and it's gone unsolved. I've done absolutely everything yet it still happens. The only thing that seems to help is if you power down the phone completely, reboot, open web browser, open gapps, then try and make a call. Because if you try to make a call first thing after a rebbot, nothing, ever. This is the only method I've found that can get me the phone.apk to actually connect a call. There are days I want to smash this phone into a million pieces.

What are your flashing procedures? Are you wiping EVERYTHING multiple times and/or performing superwipe multiple times,depending on which recovery you are using?

im fairly certain im wiping everything multiple times.
im using this recovery
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-speedy
So maybe im flashing wrong but i rooted the phone. downgraded to 2.2 to s-off. then flashed the radio, wipe wipe wipe. flash rom.
also tried wipe wipe wipe. flashed the radio then flashed the rom.

Hm, did you check the md5sum on the radio you flashed?

i did. when i upped the radio. i tried under 2.2 and my data was working fine. so i tried that then flashed the new rom then i lose data.

This happened to me when I switched my account to an Epic 4G I was working on; when I switched it back to the Evo Shift, I couldn't get data.
I can't say this will or won't help you, or that it's even the right way to go about things. I activated another phone we had lying around, through sprint.com. And then I reactivated the shift again and went through all the steps, put the ##code in etc., and when it rebooted, it was working. And it will still have whatever ROM you installed on it (duh). Sounds like a mess but it worked for me.
I think ## 786 # does a hard reset if I'm not mistaken. You could also try that first to avoid the hassle of what I did.

Now that you mention which recovery, make sure you go into the mounts & storage menu and 'format' pretty much everything but 'sdcard' multiple times each. I know alot of people take the term 'wipe' and assume we mean just the 'wipe data/factory reset' and 'wipe cache' options that are displayed on the main menu, just want to make sure.
If you are already doing that then disregard.

oh yeah. anything that said wipe. i wiped. except the sd.

I had am issue like this when I switched ROMs from Sense to AOSP at one point. Ended up having to nandroid back to Sense and update PRL and profile. Have you tried going back to a Sense ROM, updating those then reflashing the CM10 ROM?
