i been switching roms like CRAZY to find a stable one. i like the CM6 vanilla, Fresh 2.4.0, and NFX-Hero 2.2.1. those are my fav ive tested so far, ive tested several others as well.
I'm using RA-Heroc-v.1.5.2 Recovery mode. i have tried the clockwork recovery(that CM6 gives me) but its too buggy for me and annoying to use with so many unorganized things.
no matter what rom i use or either of those 2 recovery modes I've used. everything always force closes on the 2nd day of use. if anyone can give me tips of what i should do or what im doing wrong.
try this

Hmm. Sorry I can't help. I've had similar problems but starting fresh usually fixes them.

i noticed a few diffrent ways to root the phone. would this one be why im having so many issues.
http://www.machackpc.com/featured/how-to-root-your-cdma-htc-hero-running-android-2-1-windows/
you might ruu your phone back to .5 and then from your phone go to unrevoked.com or do a search in market for 1-click root. Read HERE about it. IDK if thats why, but have you tried fix apk UID mismatches. I think its found under Other in amonRA recovery.
i will try those ideas tomorrow. thank you. i heard of the 1-click root. but i heard its a virus and could possible ruin your phone, i could be wrong but its just a something i saw.

I think that the exploit it uses can also be used by malicious apps ice it is used to root. Don't think its a virus though

No matter what ROM/Kernel I flash to i loose my WIFI access. When I go into settings/Wifi it just says ERROR. Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
With CM7.0.3.1, I have been using bcblends tinyrcu (available through kernel manager) and leave min/max as is (806max/245min) make sure you wipe cache/dalvik before installing the kernel...
Hope this works for you.

SD card should be mounted. It's only unmounted when I plug my phone to the computer to transfer files and such...
Same thing happens to me with kernels. Sometimes Wimax too. I'm using mik shift, works fine with stock kernel.

I have a regular evo with this same problem, tried 3 dif kernals, and upteen romflashes.... still have wifi error in settings
still no progress on this, i still have this problem... super gay
I too am getting an "Error" when trying to turn wifi, Logcat says " Wifi Driver missing" have tried rebooting, and flashing another rom. any help?
Well it's probably been said before, but here goes When you flash a new Rom make sure you do a FULL wipe. It's seems trivial, but not doing this can and usually does cause all kinds off issues. Also, you should check your WiFi settings, and make sure they're correct.
Full wipe has been done and what wifi settings are you talking about? phone settings can't be accessed because the phone can't turn wifi "on". is it possible to extract the wifi driver from another shift? i have another one at my disposal. BTW wifi was working a day ago no problem. i havn't flashed a new ROM in months and was on a stock rooted rom.
Have you tried to ruu back to stock to see if you have the same issue? Or nandroid back to a version where it worked?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
yea ruu'd back to froyo, re-rooted and reinstalled updated radios, and am back to gb. any idea where the wifi drivers would be? thanks for the replies.
Have you just tried it from a stock froyo rom? RUU back to 2.2 and just try it from there. It should reflash all the proper radios. Maybe the wifi chip is defective in the phone too. It happened at work to a co-workers playbook.

+1 on that. Also if it was working then not. Something else might be up, are other devices able to connect to that WiFi spot with no issues? It is possible to extract the wifi driver from another SHift. But if you just RUU back to stock it should work. If not somethingelse is definately wrong. To get to the settings: Menu-Settings-Wireless & Networks-Wi-Fi settings-menu-Avanced.
yea went ruu'd back to stock, no dice. wifi just says "error" after "turning on", must be an internal problem. other devices work fine on this point. what would be the steps to extracting the driver from another shift, i have one ready to go.
If you RUU'd back to stock, and it's a still no good. Then you might want to consider getting a replacement if WiFi is really important to you. Especially if you know for sure that other devices can connect, and you cannot on a stock Rom. But you do risk getting an updated Shift. Not a risk worth taking in my eyes. Did you make sure and check all the settings?
Yea all the settings are good, it definitely seems to be an internal problem at this point. I'm weighing the options right now and came close to ruu'ing to gb to see if it solved the problem, but I just couldn't give up root.
only 2 things come to mind on what caused this, i attempted to update to the newest ota htc update over the stock rom, ( i know stupid, got the android + !) and i installed an app to transfer files over wifi.
Wifi isn't too important but I hate the feeling of not having my phone %100.
Same problem here. I just got a wifi-error running the latest shift-deck. The phone was brand new with a bad esn (planning to flash to a different carrier) and was first turned on 8/2/11. so basically 2 weeks turned on. This just happened 2 days ago. Cleared everything and flashed again. Don't know how to RUU or what it is. Anyone want to explain?
Ruu basically puts the phone back as if it were just out of the box. There is a thread somewhere here with the file. Just make sure you get the froyo version, otherwise you won't be able to root.

I'm currently using the newest Weapon G2X ROM on my phone...
Like many of you, this ROM is working just fine, but I get the itch to try something new.
I've tried to flash the new EaglesBlood release (1.9), and I've also tried the latest CM7 and MIUI.
I'm DEFINITELY NOT a pro at flashing ROMs, but I've done enough successful flashes to know how to do it correctly. In all of the above mentioned ROMS, my phone will freeze up on the boot screen, or I will get booted, but not even be able to sync a google account or reload apps... My phone will lock up and I'll have to battery pull.
In another thread this morning, I saw a user mention that the REFURBISHED handsets sometimes have problems with some ROMs and OC'd kernals...
Is anyone else having this problem? This kind of makes sense for me.

That should not be the case. The only difference in a refurbished handset is the model number. Other than that, and the fact is is previously used but everything reflashed to stock by LG or TMO, the ROMs should work the same as a DW model phone.

I'm all out of ideas then... Do you have any idea why I'd have so much trouble loading other ROMs?
Like I mentioned, I'm no pro, but I've Flashed enough ROMs to think that I'm "good" at it.
I'm completely stumped.

Before flashing a new ROM did you do a factory data reset, format the system partition and clear the Dalvik cache? If not you will have problems as you described. You need to wipe the phone clean between flashing different roms. If upgrading to a new version of the same rom you might get away without a wipe. But if you are changing roms the steps I mentioned above are essential or you will often get bootloops or the phone will lock up during boot.

JBoxer, I make SURE to Reset/Wipe/Format/Clean everything EVERYTIME.
That's what I can't get figured out. I've been meticulous about it!
And I still get the frozen bootscreens and the lock ups.
Any other ideas?

the Best I've found if you want gingerbread style is Hellfire phoenix
or if you want ICS style is Hellfire sandwich v1.6 (which is what I am using for a while now)
the only problem that I found is the video camera but other than that everything else works fine on my G2X. they update couple times a month for the last 4 months so they are always trying to make things better for their users. if you have problems they are more than willing to try to help you with it. if you are using with a simple mobile setting it has a funny setup but it work very good (better wifi & phone signals)

My original g2x could handle oc and UV big time, anything the devs put out . My replacement can only handle kernels with stock voltage and oc is unstable anything past 1.1ghz. So to answer your question, may be a coincidence or may just be bad luck on our part. Remember, not every processor is created equal despite being the same phone. I get tempted to get an additional replacement every once in a while but laziness tells me otherwise.

Possibly cleaning and wiping everything soo good that you clean the new rom right off your sd card?? lol. just a thought. ive done that when i 1st started flashing roms. or possibly flashing gapps on roms that dont require you to?
edit: i just realized how old this post is. lol
the reason refurbs night have worse luck is because of all the people who send their phones back because of that, they make up a reason to tell Tmobile and get a nice shiny new one. The old one is reset and passes all the "official" stability tests and gets sent out again.

Hey guys, I'm currently on the ICS leak and SCV7 rom, and my phone just keeps crashing and restarting, I've cleared the cache and dalvik cache multiple times, I don't think it was doing this on 2.3.6. What can I try? I just took this thing out of the box
Couple things you can try:
Factory reset.
Try NOT overclocking.
And try removing the supercharger script.

Thanks for the reply, it was doing it on the leak as well because I had a lot of trouble getting it rooted. It seems that every time it crashes it goes through the boot loop, crashes at a certain part, then boots properly to the lockscreen. The phone feels awesome and fast but extremely unstable. Another problem I'm having, root doesn't seem to be working, "Super user has denied Super user request" nothing can get root, so I can't boot into CWM to try and wipe stuff properly. Maybe I got a dodgy version of the leak or something I'm not sure, I guess I'm lucky I didn't install the OTA and I can go back. Any idea on the root situation?
EDIT: Just did a factory reset in stock recovery, can you tell me how I can go about not overclocking removing the supercharger script? And once it boots, if it boots, I'm going to try and root using the ICS .bat root script and hopefully I can get into a custom recovery.
When installing SCv7 is it normal for it to get stuck on the Preparing SCv7 message and then reboot? I'm not sure if it's installing scripts and restarting the phone or what... Because it did this the first time I installed it, and it's doing it again now after a factory reset. If I can get into CWM I'll try and flash the rom again. Can I flash the other ICS rom after a wipe, or do I need to FXZ back to 2.3.5, OTA to 2.3.6, flash the leak, then install the other rom?
I installed the other rom based on the leak, same problem, tried without my sim card, without my sd card, just keeps crashing, boot looping, and being generally unstable. Atm I'm using Jims FXZ script to go back to GB, I'll update to 2.3.6, keep everything stock and see how the phone goes, I'm really hoping I don't have the same problems on GB, because if I do then it seems like a hardware issue, and I really can't be bothered sending it back. I'll keep updating.
Rdavisct has posted in the SCV7 thread about how to remove those, and yes mate, I think you're on the right track with FXZing back to 2.3.5 and the re-updating to ICS.
Let me know how it goes. I'll keep an eye on this thread. :fingers-crossed:
I need to get the battery charged then I can fxz back to 2.3.5. Hopefully it all works out. Any ideas what would have caused the crashing?

Okay so I am running CM10 stable on i9023. Its been fine for like a month I think with just a couple of reboots. But today I have been getting reboot whenever I turn on bluetooth. Its a very ugly situation where upon boot the phone reboots again as soon as trying to turn on bluetooth. I then clear dalvik cache and cache to make it work again. However it seems like I really am stuck now it just wont boot anymore.
I have tried clearing cache again but it still wants to turn on bluetooth and reboots. Even took out the battery for several minutes but to no avail.
My titanium backup is a bit old so please what should I do here that doesnt require data reset?
Does nandroid backup also restore those apps which were moved to SD card?? Would it even solve the situation here?
Thanks.
Okay I finally got it running again but what do I do about the bluetooth problem now? I am scared even touching bluetooth now but I really need it from time to time. :S
So everything was fine for a few hours then I decided to do a normal reboot and bam I get the bootloop again. Something has seriously got messed up I guess.
Please anyone what would you suggest me?
Do a factory reset from recovery. If that still fails, flash the factory images and see if everything works.

How can you blame CM for that? Or any rom for that matters?
You had multiple reboots, the early ones which might have be caused by something unrelated to the rom, and the later ones something was probably corrupted. If data was being written when it rebooted on you, it's no wonder you'll have problems...

It wasnt the first time CM rebooted on me, stock rom on the other hand was very stable.
And then this whole mess happens.
only had some bugs with newer nightlies.
reflashing the rom w/o factory reset did the job
