Hi, last night my wifi seemed to cut off while using my tablet. I tried to cut it back on and it got stuck in the "trying to connect to wifi" stage. I cant press the button and it wont turn back on. I was running Chromi X 4.6.6 at the time. Today, I flashed 4.6.8, hoping it would reset and fix the problem, but the problem still is there. I am really nervous I broke my wifi chip or something. Here is a screenshot of what is happening. I hope someone can help me.
Thank you.

Is the WiFi icon greyed out in the bottom right? If so try removing your Google account from settings and the readd it. I think Google have been having some DNS issues recently.

I removed my Google account and tried to re add it. I get to the part where I need to be connected to wifi and I get this. Something seems to be horribly wrong.

Just do a factory wipe. As long as you don't do a full data wipe you will keep your nandroids if they are on internal.

BTW you don't need to wipe when restoring as it does that for you automatically.

**** me. Restored back to 4.6.4. Wifi is still broken. Gets to the the "Turning Wi-Fi- on..." screen and never turns on. I am freaking out.
Do you think doing this will work? And if so, how do I start a terminal session?
I've had the Bluetooth not turning on issue four times on my TF101 - the first two times a hard reset (no data loss) fixed it - have you tried this, as opposed to a restart? - and the next two times I just waited and eventually BT turned on. I've never encountered this with WiFI (yet).
In case anyone else encounters this, on a rooted tablet the following might also help:
Open a terminal session and -
su - <enter>
cd /system/bin <enter>
stop bluetoothd <enter>
start bluetoothd -n <enter>
This will force stop and then restart the Bluetooth daemon. I haven't yet worked out (mainly because I haven't need to) what the equivlent process is for WiFi.

I got that problem before. I believed that this was what I did if you want to try it out:
1. Wipe both Caches and data
2. Restart your system
3. Shut it off again
4. Go to recovery and select the Android for a cold boot
5. Restart it again and it work for me
I don't know why I had to go through that sequences but I seem to work for me, good luck.

2. When you boot into recovery, there are 3 icons, the middle icon is the android that I am talking about

Everytime I restart to recovery, it loads TWRP. I see a little android icon as it is booting, but its not like I can click on him. When I wiped using TWRP, it did a factory reset. I restarted to system, but the damn wifi is still not working. I am so frustrated.
Thank you for your help. I am going to eat and drink a beer and try again later.

Hehe, I have been there so many times before. You can use the volume up to select and volume down to confirm. Any way, did you tweak your device before the problem? Did you use D2SD? Maybe you explain a little more details what you did so that people have better understanding of your problem. The worse case is you have to flash the rom again .

OK. I was running Chromi-X 4.6.6 ODEX at the time it happened. I used to use a micro sd card but it was acting weird and I took it out. I have been using only the internal SD for the last ~3 months. I use _that/ stock modded kernel variant based from ASUS Stock that comes with the ChromiX mod. I run Apex launcher. Android version 4.2.1.
Using TWRP 2.5 on 10.6.1.14.4 via goomanager.
So far I have tried:
- Flashing ChromiX 4.6.8
- Recovering an old nandroid backup (4.6.4)
- Clearing cache and data via TWRP and restarting with cold boot

If you don't mind, you can try a clean install.
1. Boot back into twrp and select wipe, use format option instead of wipe
2. Install cromi x, prefer 3.6.5
3. After the installation is completed, restart your tablet and leave it there for a few minutes
4. Make sure that you must SHUT IT OFF COMPLETELY for a few seconds and turn it back on
Hope it will solve your problem, good luck.

Regarding #2. Where would I find a download of chromix 3.6.5?
Holy ****.
I just rebooted into TWRP before formating, and then rebooting back to system to save my pictures, and all of a sudden the WiFi is working again. Going to flash the latest Chromi X and see what happens

I have found with my experience that these issues are caused from the sdcard and how it is formatted and partitioned. You can backup your sdcard and reformat it and/or partition it if you want. reverendkjr has some good tutorials on youtube you can watch for help starting with this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvU1CptOe14&feature=related or go to his profile here and he has them listed I think
I agree, probably an sdcard issue. Do you have any partitions? Are they set up correctly, ie fat, then ext then swap? Try taking the card out and booting up. Does it work? If so, then would almost point directly to sdcard problem. Answer and try that and we'll go from there. Need more info.
I tried remove the sdcard then reboot but it still does not work

thanks dude, it worked
So i recently downgraded my evo shift from 2.3.3 to 2.2 and booted the cyanogenmod 7 rom to it. everything worked pretty well so i installed a bunch of root apps. I installed juice defender and as of yesterday the wifi and 3g havent been quite working to par. the wifi always has a weak signal and the 3g barley works. it mostly stays on 1x and if it happens to go to 3g it is a weak 3g signal. i have tried restarting my phone and would try a radio update but my bootloader for some reason doesnt even recognize any img files i put on the sd card (i used ruu to flash the downgrade). any help would be appriciated
Well first, get rid of juice defender.. Unless you never use your phone, your draining more battery. Also I've had experience with it causing an issue with my data. Second, the lack of signal tends to be something that happens on AOSP and the crappy sprint network. Uninstall juice defender, clean up your dalvik cache and see how things work. Also install the V8 kernel of kernel manager
Sent from my Shifty Speedy using the XDA Premium App
ok thanks i will uninstall juice defender. how to i clean my cashe though?
Edit: ok...so i updated to v8 and now my phone is stuck on the HTC logo........
edit x2: ok so restored using clockwork.... still having trouble though

Dalvik cache is cleared in recovery under advanced. As far as getting stuck on the HTC logo, try booting back into recovery, wipe dalvik and cache, then flash the kernel again. If it still won't boot then wipe Dalvik/cache and flash a different kernel.. Or reflash CM7 over what you already have.
To Boot into Recovery. Power down ( shut off ) the phone, hold the volume button down, and then press the power button. Let it do it's thing. Then with the volume button move the highlighted section till it's on Recovery. Press the power button. Again using the volume btton move the highlighted secion till it's on Clear Cache. Press the power button. Do the same thing again on the next menu. Let it do it's thing. When it says done the highlighted section should be on reboot. Press the power button and reboot.
EDIT: oh well to late.
ok i flashed the cm7 kernal and cleared the cashe. still nothing. my signal still goes in and out. data is still not working. could i need a radio update? i have android version 2.3.3 with baseband 1.07.00.1129

Format your SD card to fat32, that should help with the img not being recognized. Formatting clears your SD card so make a backup first.
Usually when you flash a fresh ROM it's best to wipe a few times to make sure everything is cleared out. Not sure if that is the issue her or not.

Hi all,
I have a Samsung SII (T989) that's running rooted ICS 4.1.2 (tmobile)
and I enabled whole disk encryption that has been working fine for several months.
.
For some reasons, it did not accept my password to unlock now and it kept
asking me for password. It said after 20 tries it will erase so I entered after 20 times
and now it counts down saying that I have -10 tries and every time I entered a wrong
password, it just got to -1 more.
Is there a way to bypass this or how do I wipe it out back to stock? there is no option
to restore it back to stock?
yes, this is my phone and I am so frustrated. You all can see that I have been on this board for a long while.
I appreciate all your help.

You can boot in recovery (stock or custom, doesn't matter) and do a data / cache wipe. Or simply factory reset the phone.
If you still face problems, you can flash back to stock rom from odin.

You remember how you booted into recovery while rooting using the button combo?
Just boot into recovery mode and you will see options like apply update from sdcard
wipe data/reset phone
wipe cache etc.
Select wipe data/reset phone using volume up/down for scrolling througj options and home button for ok/select.
You will be asked for confirmation. Select yes and then reboot from the options you will get once it is done. Your device will be usable as it is. But you will loose all your data like contacts messages apps etc. You won't loose anything from sdcard though.
And just use the thanks button herafter for saying thanks.

Hi all,
can I get some help again...
I finally was able to get back to it.
The question now is:
- I cannot scroll any screen. I'm using Nova but I couldn't use my finger to scroll up and down?
It seems to be fine but I just couldn't scroll any screen.
- I couldn't pull down the status bar.
Basically, I could run any app that's on the screen, but I couldn't scroll
If this of any help: when I unlock the screen by pushing the numbers, I had to do every key twice
for it to register. For ex, to unlock the screen, before, I push '123', now I have to push '112233'
then ok twice for it to unlock. Everything is double.
Please help. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Never mind. Found that the setting->accessibility->explore by touch' was turned on for some reason and this made it unresponsive.
Turning it off made everything back to normal.
I was on Cromi-x 4.7 and everything was smooth.i decided to move on and test the new beta 5.
when i flashed everything was normal and i was on haunds kernel 3.2
it suddenly restartet and got stuck on the asus logo.
i tried everything!changing kernel.changed the rom and even went back to the stock rom and none of them worked for me
and now its stuck on asus logo and its in a restart loop....
i'm really disappointed:/
is it a hardbrick or what??
what should i do???
p.s:i have access to my twrp 2.5 recovery..
Can you hold down power and volume down and get to the bootlloader menu? The one with the RCK menu?

Then you are not hard bricked
Which recovery are you using?
Easiest method is probably go into wipes and do a factory wipe, then reinstall the rom but choose that's or my stock kernel and see if that boots first.

If you format your internal SD, it will solve a lot of unknown problems that I don't know how to fix or a root cause of it.. However, you will loose all your personal data and files. By any chance do you use 64G external SD?

It is why that you can not boot into your system because your system was not mounted.. You can try wipe both caches and power off your device completely for about 15 second. You can power it back on with your power button to see if it works..

No. The recovery is independent from Android, and Android mounts the system partition itself.

No. The recovery is independent from Android, and Android mounts the system partition itself.

Thanks again _that. I always learn from your post. However, this is not a Development forum and sometime if you are too technical, it is more confused than helping someone else.. It is my two cents.. :fingers-crossed:

It is why that you can not boot into your system because your system was not mounted.. You can try wipe both caches and power off your device completely for about 15 second. You can power it back on with your power button to see if it works..

This is XDA Developers. "XDA Developers was founded by developers, for developers."
I don't expect everyone to be a developer, but I expect people here to have some knowledge about using computers that exceeds clicking icons in Windows and being able to open a browser.
As super mod zelendel wrote, "XDA is a place to come to learn and share your knowledge. If you are not here for those reasons then you are here for the wrong ones.". I know you are here for the right reasons.
If something in my postings is too technical, just ask - I am happy to explain anything.

Time to take a breather anyway, I think. Take this opportunity to learn the basics about adb. You can start here:

If you get stuck, just ask.

Usually a data format and reflash of system will fix this type of bootloop. You didn't by any chance flash a new bootloader did you when you were trying to fix it? Have you tried restoring a nandroid at all?
I'm all out of ideas. I've fixed many bootloops now so we should be able to get you up and running but something doesn't quite compute.....
It's happening about once every minute or so. Just wondering if it's happening to anyone else?

Have you tried a reboot or factory reset since upgrading?
Just waiting to see if anyone else is having the same issue before I went through the trouble of a factory reset. No point in doing the reset if it won't fix the problem.

Yes, only when from Nougat. But not between Oreo Betas, and that was a while ago.

Sounds like a factory reset is probably the best option, Thanks!

Spent the last two hours listening to music over Bluetooth. No issues. Oreo Beta 3.
Hello, how to do a factory Reset without loosing all? I have now Oreo Beta 3 but my Essential crashes every day. it will be black and the boot logo comes and stays. Then i must quit the Phone and restart. In Beta 2 there was this issue too. What can i do?

Maybe you should reset the phone and see if it still crashes frequently. If so you should send it for warrant.
Been listening to bluetooth for a while this morning and haven't noticed any issues with B3.

Did you try a standard wipe cache and dalvik after installing B3?

Boot to Recovery. Once you get to the dead Android with a Red "!", hold Power and then press Vol+. You'll get to a Menu, use the Vol buttons to select Wipe Cache. Press Power. Then Select Reboot.
(though while there, i'd use ADB and re-flash B3, and then clear cache).

Okay thank you, I will try it.
I had the same trouble. Anything is working right. I can pair my Bluetooth earbuds. The first minutes are OK, but after the screen goes off there are a couple breaks by the music here and there . Awakening the screen will help.

You can't do this on the essential. They took Wipe Cache out of the recovery. I was very angry when I saw that.

Same here. Why on Earth would anyone go out of their way to do this? ?
BTW there are also apps that claim to wipe cache -Lspeed for example, but I have yet to see proof of it actually doing so. Also twrp doesn't register a cache partition either. How weird. It's probably part of the boot partition like everything else seems to be...
Imagine if the only way to clear cache was to flash boot image. What a load of crap that would be, lol

You can do it in ADB, but I don't always have my laptop handy, and besides running ADB every time I have an issue is a huge PITA... I'm starting to lose confidence in this company.

You're right. My bad. I've found that Google backup does a decent job of restoring your phone's settings and apps. I had to wipe my phone the first few times I tried to sideload.
