Wifi not working after root

Ok so I have successfully rooted my htc inspire 4g...I got the sound working somehow, and I do not really know how. I think I installed this rom, but I do not really know if I did or not. Well anyways I got the sound to work again on my phone after rooting, but the wifi is not working. It connects to the network (or so it seems), but then it does not work online or anything. I went to check my wifi client list on my computer, and it is showing up, but it is not working on the phone. PLEASE HELP!!!

Try a different Rom and see if it fixes it or reinstall the Rom and wipe everything.

I know it sounds very simple, but just try and rebooting the phone if you haven't already, also turn on WiFi and data then turn on airplane mode and then turn off airplane and shut off data...might work
If not I agree with ^^^^ just clear everything and flash a new ROM.

try re flashing rom. make sure you do a full wipe( cache, data, system) before reflashing. if that doesnt work try a different rom. they are not all created equal

Yeh,do a full wipe using clockworkmod (on recovery) and reflash the rom.

I just changed the SSID (network name) login in to the router setup and boom !! problem solved!!
Try This before you go for comlicated things! wont going to hurt!!

I apologize that this question isn't exactly the same thing. But it is related, sorta. I have rooted my phone and has been working great. have tried several roms. that's a lot of fun too, btw.. but, i wanted to download a game and after i downloaded it, said that i couldn't play it because the phone is rooted. Is there a way around that? Or, do i just need to forget about the game? Thanks for the help.

Try to fake unroot with OTA Rootkeeper. It's in the Google Play Store.

That's crap that a game developer would deny you access to a game because your rooted. It's none of their business what we do with our phones. I would uninstall and never look back because of principal, and voice my frustration in a review.

Accidently deleted kindle app

It was a specific version that I cant find on the amazon appstore.
It recognized my kindle, well being on the android marketplace i updated it and didnt have a backup.
Does anyone have the stock apk for Amazon Kindle App? (before rooting)

No need. I did the same a few days ago. Just go to your Settings and and go to your apps. You have the option to uninstall the update for Kindle but not the app itself. Once you ininstall the update all is well again.

Rooting, doesn't change the app.
See PM.

You should be able to just use the latest one from the market without any issues.

this is inacurrate, if u update from android market it doesnt detect your device as a kindle fire, in the kindle app, or it didnt detect mine as a fire and it said that "Maximum PC" can only be downloaded by Kindle Fire.
Nobody else may have seen this and I haven't read my PM, rooting my device DIDNT change the app, but rooting it, installing android market, and updating the app changed it, when I got the error of it not detecting my fire I deleted the APP thinking kindle would have a copy of it still, and it removed it.
to fix this I just went to amazons software update page, downloaded 6.2***.bin and put it in my kindle update folder and manually reloaded the rom. Worked like a charm.
Ill see PM and respond accordingly.

check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348782&highlight=system+dump It is something like kindleforotter.apk. copy that to /system/app and chmod to 755 or rw-r--r-- if you use root explorer. I had to do the same thing a few weeks ago.

I updated from android market and it's working fine, no problems what-so-ever.

I also did the update from google market and it works. I like it better I can now launch my books from go launcher. No more looking at the stock launcher at all.

Glad to see it's working for you guys, maybe I just had a hickup. I panicked and deleted it and redownloaded the whole app tho too, and thats when I realized it didnt work. Regardless It's running now. Thanks everyone for input.

I know exactly what you're asking, and it boggles me that no one could do you the simple favor of going to /system/app and uploading their version of kindle... Instead offering pointless advice to use the market version, which you clearly pointed out had a limitation you didn't want. I also deleted the original version that came with my kindle or I would have uploaded it for you. I still don't have a copy and would greatly appreciate it if you could do me the favor of uploading it now that you've restored it on your kindle? Thanks in advance!

I too thought it was pretty apparent that's what he was asking for. The market version is substantially different from the default system app.

sorry to hear that, what was the error message ?
maybe because of the 6.2.2..
you can try to extract the required apk from the update bin i think , or post a new thread in the dev section someone with 6.2.2 could help

It took forever but I did just that and now it's perfect. I immediately put it in my system folder and tibu. I'm so glad that night mare is over. If anyone needs it please msg me and ill send a link.

[Q] Phones that dont have markets ?

Hello guys i have a big question
for phones that dont have markets like huawei u8850 vision (it has a chinese market) is there anyway to have google play on it ??? by root or anything ???

Hi,
You can always use aptoide client.

I would assume you could use a similar method as the kindle fire does by masking as another device. Then install market with correct permissions.

Much chinese (cheap phones) don't get a google play license, it makes the phone cheaper. The owners make a own market-wannebe version. You can try install gapps, or just buy a real phone

Flash CM and then gapps. You gonna have your Play Store and most likely a better OS!

Look for a custom ROM for your phone, or maybe just CWM.
That way you'll be able to flash a newer version of gapps that will have a proper play store.
Best of luck!

HTC Inspire 4G Help

Hi guys, I am an iphone user and Just started to use Android so dont know much about it. I have couple of problems please help me to solve them.
1. I Installed Android ICS 4.0.4 after rooting Inspire 4g and its working now but whenever i run few app it reboots. I tried to run Temple RUN 3-4 times but my phone reboots. Please help me to find the way.
2.- Now its not rooted. Would you please help me to know how to root now this Inspire 4G with ICS 4.0.4.
Regards

1. Which ROM?
2. How did it get unrooted?

I Installed this Rom and i have done nothing after that i dont know how to unroot or whatever.
update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed.zip
would you please let me know what to do? It reboots and dosent look stable for me.
Regards

That's because that is not the latest version. Where did you get it? It is actually really old. The latest version is on this phone's development forum. Usually I would tell you to read more and search for the link, but I'm feeling nice today. So I'll give you the link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460820. And I'll give you a friendly warning: around here and around most Android hacking forums, we expect even new users to read and research a lot for themselves instead of flashing things willy-nilly. Look to the link in my signature for some new user help. And remember to full wipe.
Also, I4G users can flash Desire HD ROMs. So you can try that forum out too. It's more active than this one.

I got it from google. and would you please let me know what to do? Can you give me the link of latest rom of ICS 4.0.4 link which will work on Inspire 4G and how can i root this 4G now? because i cant install your rom without Rooting.
Thanks

Well, you haven't answered the question of how it got unrooted. Not knowing how that happened, I don't know which of several solutions will work. For the rest read my edited post above. And look generally to the I4G and DHD Development forums for ROMs. Don't randomly flash stuff from Google. You run a pretty high risk of bricking your phone.

Hi bro, Thanks alot for your time, i am downloading this aospX-1.0.0-MR1-DHD.zip rom right now. and I just checked my iphone and i can see the recovery mode after rebooting my phone. but when i install root check app and it says your phone is not rooted. so any Idea what to do?

Er, your iPhone? Do you mean your DHD? You probably got your Superuser app deleted somehow from your current ROM, I don't know how, but once the ROM is flashed Superuser should be back, since the ROM will have it. Make sure you full wipe first, which means wiping or reformatting system, data, and cache (the exact method differs depending on your recovery). This will erase any data you have.
Also, did you use AAHK S-Off or HTCDEV bootloader unlock? The flashing method differs. And by the way, calling either option "root" is a misnomer. AAHK S-Off lets you flash anything to your phone. HTCDEV bootloader unlock lets you flash certain custom ROMs. They basically unlock hardware. Root is software. It usually comes with a ROM, though you could push the relevant Superuser.apk and su binary from your computer with adb if you really wanted to do so. You just can't flash a ROM (and usually people are looking to flash rooted ROMs) unless you have unlocked hardware with AAHK or HTCDEV. Look at the link in my signature, which has a very good guide on post #7, for more detailed information that you should probably know before you go mess with your device any further.

Yah Sir, my Inspire 4G had 2.3.3 as you know that and i did use AAHK to unlock bootloader before flashing 4.0.4. and as i said earlier i am using it now but rebooting. I do understand my questions frustrate you because i am noob.
What i am trying to ask you now that the link you have given me the latest rom one, Can i flash this one straight away after downloading because i have used AAHK before installing 4.0.4?
Regards

It should be rooted. Do you have an app called Superuser or SuperSU? And yes, you can install paid apps on any ROM, rooted or not.

yes bro, I can see the app called Superuser in Inspire 4G now. So its mean i can install paid apps for free now?

...Um, no. Paid apps are still paid. That doesn't change with root. And XDA does not condone pirating. I meant that you could install paid apps in a rooted ROM just like you can on stock.

When you jailbreak an iPhone, you can get paid apps for free..that's probably what he meant or was curious to know

Well, he can pirate apps on Android all he wants regardless of whether he's rooted or not. Whether he should is a whole other question.

Well, I am agreed with MissB. Rooting the phone goes far beyond hacking 5 bucks apps. If the only reason is that he wants to pirate apps, then he is in the wrong place.
Besides, he needs to read a bit more before messing or infect with a virus his phone. Most of the apps have a lite version that is as good as the paid one with a little restraint on the features.

I reinstalled cm-7.2.0-ace.zip because ICS was a bit laggy and wasnt working fast. So i downloaded cm-7.2.0-ace.zip this rom and installed but I dont have Martket or google play icon in this rom. would you please let me know how to download and from where i can get it.

I'm going to say, probably not.
I don't think any one has been able to build an old outdated Rom for a Nexus Device.
Never mind, why would you want that? It's so old.
And if it is possible, it'll probably be a lot of work.

Well i want to duplicate some apps and it worked with my old HTC One with Android 4.2.2. Unfortunately it doesn´t work with my OPO with 4.4.2 or 4.4.4...
Maybe i´m doing something wrong but i do the same steps for cloning apps....

Maybe you could try ColorOS which is based on Android 4.3

I will try that. Thank you for the tip...
EDIT: doesn´t work with 4.3....
Is there a way to clone apps with 4.4.4 ???

What apps are these that you speak of? If they're HTC apps, then you cannot use them because they require the HTC Framework which is closed source. You're better off just looking for alternative apps that serves the same purpose as those apps.

well its a game and i am sure that an HTC is not required for this... im using the apktool to decompile and then i change the package name and recompile it and sign it... but it doesnt work

Contact the game developer and have it work.
If you're running ART, disable it. What game?
And I'm sure all the effort of getting 4.4.2 without the guarantee of a game to work is not worth it.

I don't think that the game developer agrees to cloning the app. ART is disabled but still doesn't work.
Furthermore i am telling you that it worked with a HTC One.
I'm gonna find a HTC One and try it again.
The Game is Lords&Knights, maybe you can try it too and look if it works for you.

I'm on 4.4.4 and it works fine. Why are you trying to clone it?
If you want to move a saved game from device to device then use titanium backup.

I want to play with more than two accounts and i dont want to logout/login all the time. My problem is, that i can clone it and start the app but i can't login. The app just crashes the whole time.

Oh so you want one app twice on your device correct?
