ROM: MAHDI 9/03

TWRP bacon 7.1
WIFI TETHER------
on my out the box setup i was able to tether with no problems, after rooting/flashing mahdi, im recieving tmobile/metropcs upsell page for tethering data.... never got this on the cm11s stock rom.
any ideas ?
--------------------------
FLASHING-----
When flashing things after the ROM ( scroll mod, kernel, etc ) , those flashes are only dependent on that ROM, so if i flash another ROM it will essentially remove all those flashes ? - with new radio, kernel, etc ? Correct ?

Wifi Tether: try http://d-h.st/Usv
Flash: Yes. Radio is not affected as it isn't changed upon rom update, unless you're flashing CM. They ship their rom with radios in them.
You will need to manually wipe.

As reported by many users upgrading to kernel 2.6.32.28 will kill Skype on your GTAB ( It will be stuck on Sign-in)
Can anyone PLEASE post link where to download the older
2.6.32.9-dirty kernel?
THANKS
Reflash the custom rom you are using. It will give you the kernel you want. Dont wipe data and you wont lose anything. It will replace the custom kernel you installed with the one that came with Vegan rom.
Thanks, I may have to do that.
I wish there was a way just to extract the kernel from the zip file.

I rooted and unlocked my One S[S4] by this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 and it went fine.
Wifi was working fine on stock Rom but when I flashed LeeDroid's Rom and booted the wifi didn't turn on. I just said error.
Then I tried Flashing Viper One S rom and no luck it gave the same error. I tried flashing the kernel and still didn't work.
Anyway I kept on trying different things and got the wifi to turn on but now it shows the connection but doesn't connect to it. It tries two three times and automatically turns off or the phone hangs and restarts.
Please help I need wifi and I can't get it to connect.

HELP!!
Anyone here can help me please. I'm stuck with this problem as I cannot find a direct solution and I have tried eveything I can but cannot get it to connect.
When you flashed it, did you flash the boot.img before, too? Do this!
And, also important: After each change of ROM, always also wipe "System" in Recovery! Maybe some ROMs don't do so automatically. And if you change from ROM A to ROM B, also factory reset your phone.
// you find the boot.img in the zip-file you flash
I would recommend to:
- choose a ROM (Viper?), transfer it to your sd-card
- get into bootloader, flash boot.img which comes in the zip-file
- from bootloader select recovery to boot (best use TWRP)
- go to wipe, choose to wipe system, androidsecure, dalvik- and cache and do a factory reset
- select install in recovery, install new ROM
I am pretty sure, everything will work after this

Yes, I flashed the boot.img before then flashed the ROM from recovery.
I just did a factory reset, did not specifically do the system wipe.
Let me try wiping the system and then flash the ROM. I'll get to you after trying.

Okay
you could flash the official RUU ，the problem will be solved…remember.，when you flash a ROM using recovery，you'd better format SYSTEM，that's important…

I did exactly as you said but wifi doesn't connect. When I enter my wifi password it goes to connecting and quits stating the network out of range even when I'm standing besides the router and then it hangs and reboots.
All other things work fine, i.e bluetooth, mobile network etc.
I flashed the boot.img prior to flashing the ROM in TWRP. Wiped system, android.secure, cache and wiped data/factory reset. No luck.
I've no idea why is this happening. :S

The RUU is a .exe file and I'm on Ubuntu 12.10. I can't run RUU.
I borrowed a friend's laptop which was running on windows 7 but could'nt get the sync manager to sync my phone.
I'm stuck!!!
Strange .. you have neighbours you can ask to connect to their wifi for test?
Is your wifi "b/g" or "n" only?
Will write when I got another idea .. sorry.

Yes, They can let me do that. I'll try that too.
Its b/g/n.
Its so frustrating, can't connect to wifi.
It's a T-Mobile phone with Hboot 1.14.0004 maybe this can help you think of something.
Thanks for your help.

Hey,
searched the Viper thread:
"Hello,
Did you do the 2.35 OTA from T-Mobile? If so then you can't get Wi-Fi working on any other rom then Trickdroid 7.0.0 or Stock 2.35. It all has to do with the way Wi-Fi is handled in 2.35 and hboot 1.14 not letting you downgrade those partitions.
You Could always SuperCID your phone and in stall the 2.31 RUU then install Viper. That has the same hboot so you shouldn't have any problems. I haven't tried this because I dont need to. Hope that helps.
Rsotbiemrptson"
To be sure, best wipe everything as before, then flash trickdroid 7.0.0
//edit: just editing CID is not enough, I guess .. I would modify mmcblk0p23 to 1.00.000.0 (see thread "downgrade/unbrick"), too. If that does not work, downgrade hboot, works fine. I think you are good with linux.

hi. I don't know this because I just got the phone from my cousin last night and he has no idea too. Where could check this if the OTA is done or not?
Okaaay. I tried Trickdroid v8.1.0 and it didn't work. I'm downloadiing the v7.0.0 right now to test it.
He must have dont the 2.30 OTA that's why wifi is not working on any other ROM.
Can you tell me a way other than virtual machine for me to apply the 2.31 RUU on Ubuntu/linux?
Shrink your ext3/4 partition using gparted and install win7
Virtualising and using "pass-through" will not work anyway. The phone switches its mode too often, you would need to "pass-through" it again and again.
You best use a laptop of a friend .. :/
But yes, try 7.0.0
So it worked?

Hello everyone, and thanks for accepting me.
I bricked my phone.
I installed a cyanogenmod 4.1.2.
Then i wanted to try marmite 8.7 kernel.
All good. But i flashed the marmite for nexus S 4g.. The phone started, but it was very slow, i couldn't do anything on it.
So i turned it off, cheared cache, formatted system, etc..
And then, the bad news. I hadn't installed on my phone the custom rom, only the kernel.
Now i can enter in recovery, but i don't have any image to install and i don't have any recovery images.
What should i do now? How can i acces the usb storage to put an image on it?
Thanks, any help is appreciated!

I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.0
I have an option, "mount USB storage"
But when i enter in it i have 2 options: -unmount and -go back
Above that it says:
USB Mass Storage device
Leaving this menu unmount
your SD card from your PC.
I don't understand, my Pc don't see the phone, it never saw it until i selected that usb debugging in settings.
I see that i am kinda "slow"...
Shame on me! I got it now. When i am in that menu, usb storage is opened.
Great news for me, can anyone tell me what should i do now?
Install a new rom, but what should i do about the kernel? Is it necessary to install a new one or the custom rom comes with it's own kernel?
I'm sorry for my stupid questions, but i'm really noob at this and i couldn't find my answers trough the forum

Any rom has a custom kernel, so if you flash a new rom it will have it's own kernel, so it is ok to flash a rom than gapps specific for that roms version (a rom based on android 4.1 has certain gapps and 4.2 another set, and 4.3 a different set of gapps). The good news is that after you flast a new rom if you decide on another kernel you can flash it afterwards exactly how you flashed the rom...just go to recovery and mount usb then copy the kernel flashible zip and you can flash it

Thank you everyone, my phone is working again, with 4.1.2. I will stay on stock cyanogen kernel, until i learn more about kernels.
I have another problem, my wireless module was always weak, i have poor signal on any router, unless i'm 4 meters away from it. Changing roms didn't solve the problem.
A friend suggested that i should flash another radio module, but i didn't see on forums anyone talking about this problem.
3G/HSDPA is ok, so is 2G network signal.
Anyone had this problem with weak wireless antenna? Should it be a hardware problem?

If you want to flash custom kernel again, just go to recovery flash the custom kernel then wipe cache and wipe dalvik then reboot. DONE.
But I think it's not necessary when using CM cause CM's stock kernel is already awesome. ^_^
Have you tried flashing the latest Nightlies? It's faster and more responsive, well at least for me.

This has already been discussed in countless places, including the fix in the first post of the UrDroid thread, under the big red boldface letters "RECOMMENDED".
Always take a few minutes to search and browse for the answer, and read the ROM thread before posting a question; since its almost certainly already been asked and answered by others.
no need to worry

Thank you for your valuable suggestion.
I have seen that while i was downloading ROM! but i don't know the importance of that.
and i know only how to flash custom ROM. but really don't know how to flash a firmware?
could you tell me how to flash that firmware?
i must need TWRP recovery?
whether i need flash this firmware before flashing ROM? or after?

If using carl1961's file from the UrDroid thread (as I suggested) just flash in recovery. Not sure, but CWM should work. You must be SuperCID and S-off to flash the firmware.
Can be flashed anytime, doesn't effect the ROM itself. But with flashing anything, I always do a nandroid first.

Hello!
Firstly my wi-fi died. (could not connect to the internet, or even get IP adress)[same with bluetooth]
Then I reflashed another ROM, everything went good but day by day again wi-fi is dead.
__________________________
I checked stock rom, and It seems to be ok.
Step by step I :
-flash stock w/ flashtool;
-fastboot kernel w/ flashtool;
-flash phantom/thunderzap with that kernel;
-dirty flash or flash custom rom;
And wi-fi can not even turn on. Why?
So much blue screens occur.
I don't know what to do.
___________________________
P.S. Stock works fine.
edit. Flashed new .ftf and Carbon ROM. Wifi works but LED/flash light/brightness not working.

You need to flash kernel zip again after flashing rom. By kernel zip I mean the zip file that contains boot.img. It contains all the modules that you need for a working wifi.
Also, most roms require a clean flash and not dirty flash. You should check that with the rom though.
Do this:
First flash a custom kernel.
Then flash your rom using the recovery in that kernel.
Then flash the kernel zip(that I told you above). I'm sure your wifi will start working if you follow these steps carefully.
I again suggest a clean install instead a dirty one.
Hope it helps.
Hit thanks if it does.
