[Q] Wifi won't turn on, Xperia X10 mini PRO - General Questions and Answers

Hello, the problem i'm having is that whenever I try to turn wifi on, the slide instantly goes back to off and hangs saying "Connecting" but it never does. My phone is an u20i Xperia X10 mini PRO, The rom i'm using is U20i_JBMP-Release2 + gapps-jb-Slim, and the kernel is U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06; I tried this rom before with .29 kernels but the rom ran too slow and made my phone crash, then I tried Kernel U20_2.6.32.60-nAa-02 and the wifi worked fine, but the physical keyboard of my phone was all messed up, then I tested every kernel from U20_2.6.32.60-nAa-02 up to U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06 to see which one worked better, but the only one that had wifi working for me was U20_2.6.32.60-nAa-02, and all kernels except U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06 had problems with the physical keyboard, so I decided to use kernel U20_2.6.32.61-nAa-06.
I've searched through the internet but I cannot seem to find any solution. I wiped data/Factory reset, cache partition, dalvik cache; I formated cache, data, system, sdcard, sd-ext and repartitioned the sd via cwm, then I reinstalled everything but I nothing has worked for me.
I hope you guys can help me, thanks in advance.

You should download your phones Wifi modules and install via CWM, I think that may work.

[Q] HELP China Phone wont boot :(

Well it all started when I downloaded Boot Animations ★ root. I tried to install a bootanimation and it said failed. Thinking nothing happened , I had to restart my phone. Now my phone bootloops with an android bootanimation. I tried factory reset and that didnt work. I tried adb sideload and it would just say installation aborted. I have the system backed up on my laptop. Help... please?
Well.. Power +Up Button =recovery but Power+down button= testing (its in chinese)... how do I get to bootloader?
Go to android recovery,
Format system, wipe cache, go to advanced, wipe Dalvik cache, reboot.
If that doesn't help, try slamming your phone through a piece of China brick, see if it helps.

LMAO Well.. The only way to get my phone back working is through Preloader but it connects and disconnects. I tried different cords and computers but nothing worked. It's really a big mistake I did. I should have installed a custom recovery and did a backup right after I rooted my phone.. Anyways.. I'm getting a different phone soon.
Chinaphone wont boot
Thanks to xda for all the help and I hope you can help me with this problem. My Chinaphone won't start, it gets to the android boot animation and sound but then nothing. The led comes on from the time the battery is inserted which is unusual.
I have the phone for about one year now, model:M-9125 (imitation of htc hd7) with dual Sim+TV and everything else that come with Android 2.3.4 gingerbread. The phones is rooted (with the MT6573 driver- and i use link2sd so everything except un-updated system apps are on the second partition. I have modified the rom with link2sd removing unwanted system apps like email, flashlight, music, browser and replaced them gmail/outlook, tinyflashlight, winamp, opera mini respectively. Tinyflashlight and opera were made system apps. I also use the go launcher which I made a system app after which I was left with only 1.5 mb of rom, (ram about 300 mb and both sd card partitions have over a gb free) but the phone worked fine. Then a few days ago the phone wont start. I thought the battery was dead but it could not charge. I tried both batteries (came with two, one of which was already drained) and they would not charge. So a friend took them to charge with a universal claiming that I Let the batteries drain out completely that's why. However I have the batteries I think they are charged cause at least now the led comes as soon as the battery pins contact those of the phone. The phone turns on, boot animation, sounds but then nothing. So I just wanted to know if its the batteries or if its the phone given that I have over-customized it. And how do I fix it.Cannot afford a new phone right now.
I know I am a noob and read your rules but I still really wants sure where to post this. feel free to move it if necessarily. thank you.

[Q] Unbrick

Hello, i am android newbie, but i use my 5801 for a few months. But with help of this forum i make from my stock phone pretty good machine for me. Everything was perfect, i instal cwm,root, kernel g3 2.4 oc,setcpu, bassbeats,... A still no problems. But two days back i tried to instal BLN via SGS kernel flasher within android. During flashing kernel it was o.k. but at the end phone freeze a take did not reboot. Just screen stay for 10 min same. So i decided to hold power button and turn off phone. After that all the user apps were gone. So i decided to recovery via cwm from backup. after that phone started , still no user apps, only system apps and no possibility to install anything cause task manager in phone showed 0kb data , like rom was not mounted or i dont know... I started panic and wipe everything boot, cache, sd,data ... just all. And reflash kernel 2.4 back to stock
After done that it was totally in ....hole. Phone could boot to recovery but, could not start android. Just logo "samsung" is still on the screen. I tried to instal firmware( samsung 5800 xwjpi with files sbl.bin and boot.bin through odin but still same...Only boot animation is changed now...And still is just shining "samsung" logo. Is there any chance to repare that? I think i should install bootloader but i am not sure how. Or is it automatically doing by flashing rom? Pls help if u can. Many thanks.

I think it's kernel related problem. Try to flash CM7 or Kyrillos 10 or use PuruKisadHybrid
It is possible that was only temporary problem as looks , freezing has never repeat again . But after your advices i tried flash cm7 i now use cm7 kyrillos 10.6. Just testing , only well known gaming issues yet. But now i know flashing is so easy :victory:

G3/Apollo after custom rom it resets itself

Hi guys newby here and certainly newby on the android custom firmware user.
So i recently acquired a G3 (free) that was (and still is) in a bad shape. Can't use the side volume buttons as they were ripped off the motherboar
Also the stock firmware was a locked (by password).
So i decided to upgrade firmware to a custom rom. Tried the M12 rom but in the recovery could not do wipe (due to volume buttons) and although it worked, everytime i turn phone off then on i have to enter all the preferences from afresh.
Flashed a kernel with touch recovery (v5.0.2.8) and this helped a lot and i am now able to do wipe/reset wipe cache but after that an error comes with E: can't mount cache... can't mount etc etc etc and when it gets to do wipe dalvick cache it does not give me even the option to do that!
Any help? thank you in advance.

Actually, i had some similiar issues, some months ago... i actually ignored it, because it didn't bother me that much, but then once after restarting all my apps were gone...
so i guess it has something to do with the filesystem, because in g3mod.log there was an error on booting because fsck (the filesystemcheck of android) didn't return a clean filesystem...
i experimented a little and formated cache from recovery, that seemed to do the trick once, but not always...
running e2fsck forced with all yes through adb shell repaired my filesystem and since then i didn't have any problems anymore, but i don't know if that's so good doing with an installed rom, because maybe some systemfiles are ruined after that, who knows?
could you maybe post the exact errors from recovery...
Does your phone boot? How did you manage to get into download mode and recovery without using your volume buttons?

The phone does boot and works as it should now... albeit i can't get any sim card to work with it.Although there is a possibility that this phone is actually blacklisted (reported lost or stolen).
I used odin to flash different kernels, at the moment i am using G3Mod kernels and that supports touch recovery, and i ve also got CM9 as the main operating system. after that i use the reboot in recovery options from phone, thats the only way.
try making a fs.convert file
try making a custom fs. convert file n putting it in ur SD. else try this app g3mod configuration from play store n convert the filesystem as required by ur rom n kernel. U should check the dev page for supported file systems. Even I faced similar problems b4 on kyorarom. But now everything is fine.

[Q] I've tried everything and looked everywhere

Hey everyone, I'm using a GT-P5100 (3G + Wifi) O2 UK rooted tablet and for the last month it has been broken. It started rebooting itself randomly every now and then, and then suddenly it wouldn't even boot up for 15 seconds before it would restart itself again.
I am able to get into safe mode and I can get into the boot options, but when I factory reset it does nothing, I've tried from the boot menu, from safe-mode options and even from the dial up code.
I tried to connect my tablet to my PC as a media device and format it but that didn't work either; I can't connect it as a disk then format it that way because they took out 'mass storage mode' on this firmware.
I then tried to flash a stock ROM in Odin but every time I tried it would fail until I used Odin.v1.3, but guess what, it rebooted itself and my entire tablet is still exactly the same.
(the option was on AP ram in v1.3 not AP nand I don't know if that makes a difference.)
If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it so much. I have been trying for weeks to fix this and I just don't know what to do anymore, I tried on another forum but nobody answered me.
Everyone else gets replies and I get zilch; amazing. I don't know what it is that is preventing my tablet from wiping itself but it refuses to clear the current data no matter what way I try (ROM, factory reset, computer format). If someone could just tell me what that is and what I have to do about it that would be grand.
You mention "rooted " but you don't mention what current rom or past roms that you may have flashed, you could have some sort of rom cluster [email protected]$k going on in your tab but NO one else will ever be able to help because of lack of INFO or history.
Pp.
I standard rooted it from Odin. This is my first ROM I am trying to flash. I just need to know what would prevent a tablet from rebooting itself properly. Factory reset, format and flash is not working so I must assume that rebooting is the issue here.
If you are running stock rooted rom and having issues like this the only way out is reflashing the stock firmware complete (not just a rom) and see if that fixes it before you try any other roms.
If you can get into download mode thats the fix.
Pp.
To flash it completely do I need more than an MD5 file? (I also have the partition file for my model). Another question, if the tablet is having issues with the reboot after a flash, will updating from a microSD with a zip help? Thanks for the advice.

bootloop 4 blink red light every time I restart device

Hi,
I' sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section or duplicate. I searched around and found something similar but les detailed or with rooted configurations.
I have this issue, when I reboot the device, it stucks in bootloop. This happen:
-power on 1 vibration
-sony logo
-android logo
-white screen with animated waves
-stuck animation
-4 times red led blinks then reboot
usually I use this energy saving apps: Greenify, Brevent, ForceDoze
Nova Launcher, not rooted, stock ROM Nougat 7.1 (from Xperia Companion)
and usually I don't stop anything of system apps
other apps are regular apps
The first time it happened I had repaired with Xperia Companion,two reboots, none issues.
Every time the issues happen the system seems buggy or something, like if i press back button it shows me stock launcher instead of Nova, or Sim Network is unresponsive, or some other little things are not so fluid like usually are or are not expected.
Flash stock ROM with flashtool doesn't resolve the issue (stays in bootloop), only full repair with Xperia Companion or a flash with complete wipe
can't execute ADB or Fastboot, in the flash mode (fixed blue led)
my question is: there's a solution to this?My mobo is bricked?there's something I can do without software repair, or reflash it?
around i found someone that says "SE2Tool JTAG flash" resolve this issue, but what I now this tool is used by rapair shops
anyone can help me?
Hi, I have the same problem. I tried to flash stock rom just like you did but without wiping cache and data because I got important files in storage. So I didn't even try to perform a full repair with Xperia Companion since it wipes everything in storage. Did you find the solution? Please share with me your experiences. Thanks.

Just did that. Flashed the stock rom while only wiping cache with the Flashtool. Still no luck. Thanks anyway. Do you have any other suggestion?

first of all, it sound silly, a scheduled time to time incremental backup.
it's more easy to avoid-mitigate this boot loop issue rooting and install a bootloader like twrp. there are a lot of guides here that explain how to.
with recovery you can choose to backup data partitions if stuck on bootloop, on stock you can't do anything.
in your case if the reflash did not work you must do a repair through companion software, loosing all your data. or pay a service shop to recover it, but o don't know if its worth it
