[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.

[Q] [SOLVED]home button not working

Okay so.. I have an answer to my problem.. this is a problem that i had encountered many times in forums while i was looking for my answer.. big thanks to diablo2224 for his help and a thanks goes out to Cranvis for actually replying at all..
Okay so the home button wasn't working at all and it would flash and basically do zero (im sure this fix would help any buttons if this was the case). In the end i didnt have much to lose the home button not working was giving me the 'sheets' so i just tried to flash most things for wifi xoom as i was hoping it would crack a difference but it didnt... i ended up seeing a post from stachre for an update and in it was there he had pointed to stock motorola files.. i grabbed these and preformed all wipes (user data, cache, delvik - i doubt it would do much but i did it anyway).. using fastboot i then flashed the boot.img, the system.img, the userdata.img and finally the recovery.img (can always flash over the CWM anway so not a big deal) and booted it back up... suprise suprise the home button was perfectly functional again (every other update/flash of software would seeming 'update' and not actually flash to that portion of the device thereby leaving my problem and the stock images must have actually hit these sectors) i know my answer is long but just trying to be helpful to anyone else with this type of problem (stock Xoom WiFi MZ604 HWI69 images from Motorola)
as a side note : this was followed by flashing the CWM again and booting into CWM and flashing the 2.1 hammer and then wiping user data and booting into the freshly updated rom stoked!
okay it seems the home button is not working at present. i have wiped all data and cache and dalvik cache a thousand times and tried reflashing, etc still to no avail. does anyone have any more ideas? its painful to push the back button a million times to get anywhere lol

ok, so a few questions.
I am guessing it is rooted so my questions are:
What ROM are you using?
Have you tried other ROMs?
Have you been experiencing this problem since you installed the rom?
have you downloaded anything (APP, Live Wall Paper, a random APK File) before this happened?
Are you using a screen protector on the Xoom?
~If yes to the last question, is there any air bubbles or dirt in that area of the button?
~If no to last question, are you aware of any dirt or scratches in that area?
Have you tried the Home tab in Landscape as well as Portrait mode?
Have you just recently updated to a OTA that was pushed out by either Motorola/Verizon/etc?
There could be many possible reasons as to why this is happening... and I would like to help you (and who ever posts afterwords) to fix this situation. I or someone else on this board will respond as soon as possible to your problem and I hope this post helps to solve the problem

I was fine i cam home from work seen the update so downloaded check the md5 and did all wipes as instructed in the tiamat 2.1 rom.. I had previously installed the kernal for that the day prior and was running great.. I tried reinstalling the previous rom again after a few reflashes of the 2.1 hammer and wiped that see if the button would come back to no avail..

Thank you for the speedy reply to my questions. And I am sorry to say, this is one that is over my head. I would suggest that you go to Tiamat's (Or current ROM's) maker and inquire for their help. I am new to some of this but I thought I should at least ask you the basics and make sure on everything. (Woo A+ Tech Training haha!) But unfortunately, I cannot help you with this problem because I do not know what could be doing this other then maybe a line of code didn't get placed into memory when the device was flashed, or maybe there is a small error in the code itself and only certain devices have this problem (different model number = slightly different change to the chip-sets and code of the device.) There are many things that could be the trouble, and like i said, unfortunately, they are out of my understanding of the device.
I do hope that you are able to get an answer soon to your question and I hope it is a simple answer.
Sorry I could not help any more but I hope others can!
Good Luck

I reported this issue once before when I was using Xoom Zone a month or so ago. I hadn't wiped data, and it was like the home button was there just to look pretty. You could click it, it would highlight, but it was broken. If anything, I can be of service as I have had this issue once before.
I will need more info though. Do you restore data and try to hit the home button, or do you try the home button after a fresh data wipe without restoring data? It's hard for me to explain what I want you to explain, but...

A fresh data wipe mate exactly as the hammer rom thread instructed to do. No restore of data as i wanted to start fresh as i find less problems arise when u try to recover too much data and as the thread specifically called for a wipe i was more than obliging lol

I see. I've never heard of this version of the problem. My problem occurred when updating from the 3.1 Rom to the 3.2 Rom. I only had this problem because I didn't wipe data the first time because after it booted up I thought all was well... until I discovered the home button was broken... lol.
Anyways, even I'm at a loss here for how we can solve your problem. A simple data wipe resolved mine in a heartbeat... but it seems your problem is still persistent even after a clean data wipe install... interesting... can't say that I've ever seen a problem stay in the memory even after a complete data wipe...
The only thing I can suggest is to maybe drop back to a stock Rom, maybe 3.1, then installing Tiamat from that fresh stock Rom with another clean data wipe before and after. That's all I can think of since after a data wipe it's still there. Good luck!

I dropped back to manta still with the issue.. Would a nandroid recovery possibly help fix as it takes precedence over an update cuz thwn someone maybe be able to help

That might help. I can help as much as I can, but...
Try to go full stock first before anything. Do not use Tiamat for right now. Install a completely stock, but rooted 3.1 Rom is what I suggest for you to do so that you can see if it's still giving you troubles on a stock Rom.

I tried that from the other thread and gained a bootloop.. Maybe stock 3.1 recovery and not just an update more to the point where would i find such? I only used otas as i was just speeding process to get to 3.2 to start flashing customs

I dunno man, I'm usually one who has great helpful answers, but... uh, this one stumps me. Like I said, I've never seen a problem that still persisted after a data wipe. It's almost as if it is much deeper than a data wipe, but more like something has locked itself into your Xoom's memory and won't leave without forcing it out manually... something must be messing with your system files or something like that. Possibly something left over from the OTA updates of some sort maybe. Very strange...
I would pass this by Team Tiamat. Sorry I can't help this time. Good luck!

So you want someone to have a completely data wiped nandroid backup of the latest Tiamat Rom so that you can use that? That should work, especially if the backup has everything working perfectly. By having the ability to use nandroid backups you have nothing to lose since it can be restored very easily.

im not picky i would like a nandroid of any rom really mate... as long as the home button was working... so basically from a wifi US xoom (if compatibility was an issue) and the rest was okay yeh that would be great... i dont know anyone else with one here in AUS so someone here would have to help me out
p.s i have already tried the one from the dev thread of the stock 3.2 but that is bogus and doesnt really work for anyone and it didnt for me

I have a 3G Xoom, but I can make a data wiped clean nandroid backup for the latest Tiamat Rom, which I am running since Tiamat supports 3G and Wifi models alike. I can do that after work tomorrow if you would like me to...
Or you could find someone who has the Wifi model and do that.

Cool! I knew it was something with the system files. Case closed.

Flash ROMs without wiping data?

In the ARHD forum a while back someone advocated the strategy of never wiping data when switching between ROMs. He said he had never wiped data, and if he ever ran into problems with an app on a new ROM he just manually cleared that app's data and everything was fine.
He boasted essentially never having to reconfigure anything on his phone, and that he has successfully retained every app, setting, and text message that he's always had every time he has flashed a new ROM.
Is it possible that this is true?

I doubt it,
I didn't wipe once and ran into so much errors that I ended up re flashing whole rom..
Honestly it doesn't take much more then 30-35 min to setup a new rom specially if you buy the titanium backup app they even have a free version of it which also works great.

well on the ARHD thread it says a wipe is optional when coming from previous versions, but personally i've only flashed it once so i can't say something about it.. however, when i do upgrade from rom's i have just flashed over it (if im switching to different rom i do a wipe) and haven't had problems, unless it says a wipe is recommended when upgrading then i just do a full wipe, and then restore the data from previous backups within 4EXT, this restores all my apps and settings i had previously.. its worked for me so far

I had once do that because i forgot to wipe the data. I forgot the rom's name but i experienced no error then i switched to Smartdroid rom

Yeah but what's the point, there are many apps out there that can back up your data to restore afterwards.

I almost lost my phone!
I flashed a custom rom in my htc.... it was a total loss.. i don't know what happened..but as soon as i locked it....it never came back.... proximity sensor flashed red light all the time.....finally, had to open the back cover to make it work and boot into recovery....

[Q] "android.process.acore was finished" HELP!

big problem for me because i cant use my phone anymore. alyways when i boot it the notification above appears and i am not able to type in my pin.. touchscreen does not respond to any actions, not even in recovery. thats why i tried to flash a non-touch recovery and reflash my current rom -> result: did not work
what can i do now?

I had this before on a different phone, wiping data fixed it I believe.

I googled this issue and yes it said wipe data factory reset will stop the problem. If you do a google search you can read about android acore process.hope this helps some. Best wishes and I do hope this solves your issue.

does not work

Try googling this because they have different online fixes you need to read about. One even said to backup contacts then erase contracts and resync contacts again. Is best you read the fixes for yourself and decide which fix is more applicable to your situation. Best of luck. I hope you get it solved soon ! Good news is there are several sites dedicated to this subject. Hope this helps out. Best wishes

Hi,
This happened to me once.
I wiped the phone (Format all partitions except sd card)
Then reflashed the ROM.
I hope you made frequent backups of TB etc.
If you have one,try to restore a nandroid backup first.

Kk... make backup with GoBackup ur data.. download latest frimware it 3.33 may b, place on SD card root,go to bootloader,flash frimware,then reinstall ROM with full wipe.. all done,restore ur backup..

[Q] broke phone in a special way

i have a rom working on the phone (cm10.0.0) have no clue whats going on with phone.
basicly the issue is when i start the phone it says sdcard safe to remove if i try to mount the media storage it quickly jumps and then says the same thing i need any help possible at this point willing to try anything. does anyone know of a solution
(phone is htc one s (s4)

Backup everything and do a factory reset. Also wipe all caches. Then reflash the ROM and GAPPS. If the problem still exists you could try another ROM. CM10.2 is very stable so I would upgrade to it.
