This is a common Froyo problem - a reboot usually solves it

I try rebooting, but that don't work. I try reflashing, but when I turn it on my wifi work only for 5 min.

Can anyone help me, please

What version of foliomod you are using?
Did you try to connect to other networks?
Ive also experiencing such problems, but turning off wifi, restart and
turning on after restart usually solved this.
You may try this, but I'm not sure it will solve your problem.
Install Clockworkmod
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923722)
Go to the Clockworkmod recovery (same way as toshiba).
In clockwork do:
Factory reset
Cache cleaning
Dalvik cache cleaning
Install clean stock rom, factory reset, install foliomod, factory reset
setup folio and check the wifi.

1.I use FolioMod1.4 and also I try with FolioNotion1.2, but no luck.
2.When I turn on wifi it scan. After 5 sec. it say"Unable to scan network" and automaticlly turn off(you have this in first post).
3.Thank you very very much for your help, but Dexter's server is down and I can't download stock rom, FolioMod1.4. or older version. Secondly, Clockwork Mod recavery can't install stock rom.
4.I try to delete and rename to *.bak /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf(see this on other forum) and reboot. After reboot system make same file.
5.But thank's for your help. If you have another idea can you post it here.

Hello,
You've wrote that: Clockwork can't install stock rom,
but what do you mean?
Did you install Clockwork but you dosen't have
stockrom or you were just unable to install Clockwork recovery?
Regarding Dexter webpage, yes it is off, but if you will search
a little bit, you will find out that there is a mirror that
host most of files from dexter webpage.
http://mirror.ddevnet.net/tegra/folio100/folio100
There you have:
Foliostock.zip
FolioModv14.zip

My only tip is that you need to clean all cache and
user data, especially if you've been using other roms, which
probably left something there.
IMO the best way to do this is to use Clockwork.
If you already have clockwork in update.zip file (link to thread is in
my previous post), put it to your SD card, run Toshiba recovery
as you would with Foliomod, and choose to recovery from SD card.
Now you should have Clockwork, but in order to use it, you need
to rebot and go to Toshiba recovery once again, select to
update from file (again like in Foliomod), but then you
should see Clockwork instead of selected update.zip install.
In Clockwork you use volume up/down and home screen button on
the right as enter, or back screen button on the right as go back.
In Clockwork do the following as Ive wrote before:
Factory reset
Cache cleaning
Dalvik cache cleaning
Later you can install stock rom and folimod anyway you like it.

headblow

1.If I understand, when I install Clocwork Mod I will have 2 recaveries?
2.When I flash stock rom, I can't install customs roms.

Yes but you can go back anytime to Toshiba recovery only.
Regards,
headblow

OK, I install ClockMod recavery and do factory reset. After that I clean cache and Dalvik cache but problem is still here. I try to flash FolioStock with original and ClockMod recavery. I get installation aborted without reason.

I have the same problem, wifi - error.
I tried all the stock firmware - no result, I did factory reset before and after update.
I've tried everything.
My Toshiba has 8 Gb memory.
Please HELP - who have another stock rom? Stock Rom by Dexter Im installed - no result.
Or tell me what should I do?
Thanks to all very much.

i have this problem too
I found the description and the settings and files that are responsible for ar6003
in my opinion, this chip is in folio 100
but I'm not a programmer can someone make a patch that will make WiFi work

Thanks for the pdf. Have been struggeling a while to compile the drivers from scratch. Atm I have imported them into the kernel to compile as a module. But it somehow does not insmod correctly (well, it does insmod, but it seems that it doesn't load the firmware files). Perhaps this pdf has some answers for me.

Can't install CM based ROM's

So...I can't install either of the two CM based ROM's I've downloaded. However, on the first try, I installed VEGan, and then tonight TNT Lite, with no issues. Any CM ROM I try to install just sits on the loading screen, regardless of how long I wait. Is there something special that needs to be done to install them, different than what I do for other ROM's? (Clear data/cache, flash the ROM, clear data/cache again, reboot.)

I believe you have ClockworkMod 0.8 recovery, since you were able to flash Vegan Rom.
In general, before you flash the different rom
1. Back up your current rom
2. wipe data (factory reset)
3. wipe cache
4. flash the rom
5, flash gapps
6. reboot
Hope this helps
There have also been some reports of G-Tablets coming out of the box with incorrect partitions.
Using NVFlash has cured those issues. You should then be able to flash CM7 Roms through CWM like everyone else.
I repartitioned with 2048/0, shouldn't that rule out any partitioning problems?
I'm trying it again right now with flashing the rom then gapps.zip, waiting for it to boot...or just stay on the boot screen.
Format system and data, then follow those steps again. I ran in to similar issues when I hadn't formatted.
Also, do the three wipes again after installing the ROM and gapps.
Holy crap! I see the CM boot screen now! Thanks for the help guys. Now, do I still need to do the market fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245)? It looks like from their changelogs that the latest version of Flash is cooked into the ROM so I shouldn't have to do that part from the guide, but I'm wondering about the market.
Well, the market seems to have everything, including an app (power control plus) that none of the other rom's let me see, so I seem to be good to go! Thanks again guys!
Thanks for the suggestion - and I'll readily admit I'm WAY out of my comfort zone with Android.
When I format the /system /data do I have to mount first?
What order do the steps run in? Do I partition and then format /system /data?
cannot install cm based roms
I was trying to reset from factory rest but failed when my gtablet stucked and apparently did something wrong along the way. Now when I turn it on, I get the 3 birds screen, followed by G-Tabdevs screen, then dead. I do have clockwork mod installed on it.
1 when I clicked factory rest, it just return to the manue and said cannot find the file.
2 when I did a back up, it went through boot image,recovery image,system and then taskbar stopped in the half at settings.apk and then dead.
3 when I tried to followed this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
to use the external tf card to flash, Gtablet doesnot recogonize the external card, while I can read all the files in gtablet. I can copya single small file but cannot paste a recovery and update.zip on gtablet. Each time I copied a file from gtablet, then it is dead. I have to return on by pressing power and volume+.
4 I tried adb to push update.zip to gatblet,also failed. I feel my gtablet can only allows me to read it and refuse me to do anything on it.
Any ways to reboot my gatblet brick?
Please help! I've been reading forums all weeks trying to figure out how to fix it and am not having any luck!
Appreciate any suggestions

[How-To] Get Cm7 by Jerpelea working without any known issues = no WLOD)

Cause of I read it from many users, that they get WLODs anymore on the newest Cm7 release from J and I haven't problems, I'll share a list with steps to install it, with that it worked for me perfectly.
If you have a working Recovery you can start directly with step 6
1. Flash with Flashtool a stock firmware
2. Boot up into stock
3. Activate usb debugging
4. Root it (connect phone with activated debugging mode and press in flashtoll root)
5. Install FreeXperiaRecovery (connect phone again, click "ask root permissions" and then click on xrecovery button)
6. Download the Cm7 rom form here, and the two files from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073859
7. Copying all files needed for flashing the rom on your sdcard: Cm7 rom and the Screen off fix
8. Reboot and check if you can enter Recovery
9. If not, start at the point where you install it via Flashtool
10. If yes, take out the battery and wait ~15-30 sec.
11. Now put your battery in again and flash the .ftf bundle from the thread i linked above
12. If it flashed succesfully reboot and enter Recovery. Make ALL available wipes (full wipe, wipe cache, wipe system, wipe battery stats, wipe dalvik cache. I think that are all, right?) Now DON'T reboot before you made the next step, cause you have to start from zero if you reboot before making the next step
13. Flash the Cm7 rom
14. Flash the screen off fix
15. Reboot and wait until you get into the rom.
Note:
I know that J provides a own Baseband package, but i use this .ftf bundle, where I mixed the 435 Firmware parts with the amss.sin of the bb.52 bundle available in the bbcollection thread and I haven't any problems with this and on that way, you haven't to flash always the normal and the modded bb if you switch between roms.

Hi there. I am curious to try this. How is your battery life. Also, which version are you running, the previous "b" or "c". Reason i ask is because on your signature, it says "7.0.3-X10-J020b"
Thanks
where can i download FreeXperiaRecovery?? I will tray this!

I have runned this way J020b, I would try the c, but I can't! It's bad, but my phone is at the se service point for repairing it. But if I get it back, I'll install directly the latest Cm7 version again.

If you download Flashtool 0.2.9.1 there is FreeXperiaRecovery included. Look into the list, there wrote to click on the xrecovery button for installing FreeXperiaRecovery. The files are included in flashtool.
@ 9Lukas5
Hey, just for clarification - I thought it was never a good idea to use the option
"format system" in the "partion tools" sub menu of xrecovery?
Doing this will erase everything - including xrecovery itself [self destruct] and therefore the user would not have any option except complete reflash if anything were to go wrong with the subsequent install.... ?
Correct me if I am wrong.
Edit: if this is what you meant by "wipe system" in OP !

Yes i ment this.............maybe you're right, cause it will be formatted by installing the rom, too.........hm..will correct op.
Edit: I made it that way always, and had never problems, so i haven't thought about it.
no its COMPLETELY fine to format system AS LONG AS, you flash the rom RIGHT AFTER (DO NOT REBOOT THE PHONE BEFORE FLASHING ROM AS RECOVERY WILL HAVE BEEN ERASED).
When you format system, and install the rom, the rom has recovery built into it as well and it installs the recovery to your system partition when you flash the rom.
So as long as you dont reboot after format system and install the rom first, your fine.
Hello 9lukas5,
I thought I might mention that I've finally managed to fix my wlod but by installing setcpu on the earlier version of J's rom I was using, and setting it up to on boot run the processor at the usual 998 speed. Then I flashed the update.zip (from j's latest release, just formats the system) which didn't remove setcpu so the cpu was running at 998, this stopped all the random reboots and wlods.
I tried for a couple of weeks to use an update, trying so many different ways of stopping my phone being unusable as soon as I flashed the updates due to wlods.
Just though I'd mention it in this thread as it was on topic. Not everyones fix I'm sure, but helped me.
Cheers for all your support and help with installing the roms.

K - Right on, ty. Just so it's out there and people know ;-)
I believe the majority of WLODs are to due with the CPU constantly running at full speed.
I was getting a lot of WLODs with FreeXperia Kernel-10 on my ROM until I manually set the CPU governor to on demand.
Just go into Cyanogen Settings and change the CPU governor to on demand (it probably already is set to on demand, so change it to something else and then change it back to on demand).
After that my CPU was running at more than the max frequency and I haven't had many WLOD's (think I've had one since, a major improvement).
Erm not to be funny but their are no WLOD due to the changes J has made in his new version, regardless of how I flash it, no WLOD anymore... It has nothing to do with the way you flash the rom that caused this...
Hi guys,
I have follow ALL step from the step 1.
The phone boot, ask for the PIN code, then the page to change the language and then WLOD...
Do you think it come from the CPU frequency ?
I can't found the BTS kernel for this ROM.
Thank you for your help.
hmm....I shared it cause I hadn't any problems of WLODs yet on Cm7 since J019
Hello all,
the main trouble I had causing wlod, was definitely the clock speed. When I flashed the rom (about twenty times, different ways) I would not get enough time to configure any cpu settings, or any other settings, before my phone crashed and it would just start to bootloop with wlod.
I had to install setcpu on an older version of j's rom which didn't have overclock. Checked the box to apply settings on boot. So that when I flashed j's latest rom which is just the update of the system, all my apps were there (didn't bother wiping cache, data, etc) setcpu was still running on boot to keep the cpu set to 998.
Haven't had a single problem since, apart from low battery phone crash.
I tried so many different ways to flash before trying this, hope this helps someone.

Any body make a stock kernel image to flash to check sleep state vrs miniloader issue?????????
Worked a treat!! Thank you!

GOD I feel like a noob! Optimus V, CWM, and rom issues

I rooted my device using Gingerbreak.
I have 2.2.2 installed out of the box. I installed CWM. I installed busybox.
Busybox failed. I tried all the versions that it contains.
I checked root status, and RootCheckBasic says I'm rooted.
I installed Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. It will not reboot to CWM.
It only reboots to the standard Android recovery.
I'm trying to install Bumblebee ROM 2.4.
Here are some things I am having issues understanding with it...
Backup current apps and their data with Titanium Backup (available in the Market). Is this required? The phone is new. I have nothing to back up.
Do a nandroid backup in recovery before doing anything else below.
And the nandroid backup is done with CWM? Again CWM won't reboot, only the standard Android recovery boots.
Required if installing BB 2.x for the first time: Wipe. Wipe it all. Data, cache, system, dalvik-cache, sd-ext if you've got it (might need to look under Advanced or Mounts in recovery to do the last two, and while you're there format /system). I assume you wipe it all with CWM while in recovery?
If upgrading from BB 2.3, wipe cache (and only cache) in recovery.
Does not apply to me
If not upgrading from 2.3, install Wiper zip (see below), just to be extra sure that all is wiped. Don't reboot yet. Installing wiper.zip is done by sideloading using adb commands?
Install ROM zip (see below).
I assume this too is done by copying the zip to the external SD, then selecting update from SD card in recovery... right?
Please someone shed some light on this for me.
In standard Android recovery it says e3. I know on my Captivate I had to use Odin to install GB loaders to get it to work.
THANKS!​
Flashwork mod recovery? Never heard of it.
Try downloading rom manager from the market and use that.
Everything else should be simple

Oh, okay, um... are you using the reboot into recovery option in rom manager right after flashing?
After flashing what?
I reboot into recovery through rom manager and get:

reboot system now
apply sdcard: update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
_________________________________________________________
Android System recovery...
Do not pull out the battery!!
After hitting flash clockworkmod recovery, immediately hit reboot recovery
After hitting anything in CWM it did nothing more than reboot into the standard android recovery.
This phone has 2.2.2 on it. Problem? Probably.
I followed instructions at androidcentral and got it to work.
Needed Xionia_CWMA_12518.6_VM
Installed BACKside-IHO-VM670-11222011
using Xionia_CWMA_12518.6_VM_Recovery-signed
Had a little problem today and needed to activate the phone. BUUUUT......
the rom didn't allow activation.
So I installed Bumblebee. No go.
Then I tried [rom] basic stock rom.
Neither of these will let my phone boot. It gets stuck at boot.
Nothing happens.
I can still boot into Xiona_CWMA. But no roms will work.

I can flash roms, but nothing happens (bootloop) or the phone comes on and works with a black screen.
I can call my number and can hear the call, but can't see anything.

I believe that may be due to the newer display in your phone (I'm new to this device so I dont know much yet). From the little bit of information I've gathered, devices manufactured recently have a different display that requires a kernel that supports it. In the iho roms this is included, on others you'll need to flash a kernel right after the rom.
For the stock rom I can upload what I use if you need it. Its basically the one posted here just with the boot.img swapped with one from a nandroid backup I made before switching roms
I think you're spot on with that idea.
I loaded CM7 variant, and it worked.
My question is, how do I get another ROM on it if it has the newer screen?
I loaded different kernels that were supposed to fix it, but no go.

S3 (I9300) stuck at rebooting. Reboots everytime at the recovery menu.

Hello XDA. This is my first post. I made the account for my special problem.
So, let's see.
Yesterday, I installed the Cyanogenmod. Everything fine.
And I also installed the latest version of Gapps (for my android version, of course).
But I have installed bugged version. So I looked into XDA forum, and I found a way to remove it. I mean, to delete cache / factory reset.
I did it. I pressed "Wipe data/factory reset" and also "Wipe cache partition"
The problem is that my phone doesn't start up anymore. I turn it off, it starts, and the single way it goes, is at the ClockworkMod Recovery V6.0.4.6. And that's it, there's no way further.
• I tried to restore, but it doesn't work. Same problem. I always press "reboot system now", and it comes back to recovery menu.
• I tried to install a custom ROM via Odin. The problem is that my PC doesn't 'see' the phone untill it's turned of normally (which, is not possible). So I can't really do anything. I am stuck at the recovery menu.
• I also tried the Odin Mode (Downloading.. Do not turn off target!) and still doesn't work.
I dont know what to do anymore.
Please help me.
Thank you very much
PS: If my post is in the wrong place, tell me and I delete it. Sorry if I did anything wrong.
PPS: I also can't turn it off. It always starts. The only way to keep it closed, is to remove the battery.
Regards, Michael.
Did you try installing the stock rom via Odin when the phone is booted into download mode?
Another thing you could try first: Via Odin, flash TWRP 3.0.0.1 and (if possible) boot it and try doing a factory reset and a dalvik cache wipe followed by reboot.
By the way, if you had been successfull in booting the phone after having installed CM13 using ClockworkMod, you were likely to not have Google Play working, as ClockworkMod in many cases isnt able to sign Google Play and other google servives on the phone (had this problem myself). TWRP 3.0.0.1 is able to do this on the other hand. It is generally a better and more user friendly custom recovery tool.

I think you should try installing TWRP first and do the reset through it. I can send you Odin and TWRP if you want. Just pm me with your email adress. If that doesnt fix it you can try installing the stock rom afterwards. That will factory wipe the boot loader as well when installed. However, to find the correct stock rom I need to know where you are from in order to find the correct stock rom for your region. But lets try TWRP first. PM me.

System not responding

[Noob question]
I have a 2 year old Samsung GT-S5282 i just rooted a month ago, by installing CWM 6.0.3.7 and flashing SuperSU 2.07 in it.
I've installed a few root apps that "boosts" the phone's performance.
But a month later i tried rebooting the phone, it passes the boot logo, then it comes across a dialog saying "process system is not responding, do you want to close it?"
I pressed "wait", but then the system crashes and the screen turns off. I tried consecutive battery pulls, wiping cache partition, but no luck, it still crashes on the dialogue screen.
I reckon it's on the kernel, but i'm STILL not sure what is going on.
Can anybody suggest a fix? I really need this phone and i don't want to lose any data.
(I've backed up my personal files, i meant i don't want to lose any internal data that cannot be backed up)
Please.

I have a 2 year old Samsung GT-S5282 i just rooted a month ago, by installing CWM 6.0.3.7 and flashing SuperSU 2.07 in it.
I've installed a few root apps that "boosts" the phone's performance.
But a month later i tried rebooting the phone, it passes the boot logo, then it comes across a dialog saying "process system is not responding, do you want to close it?"
I pressed "wait", but then the system crashes and the screen turns off. I tried consecutive battery pulls, wiping cache partition, but no luck, it still crashes on the dialogue screen.
I reckon it's on the kernel, but i'm STILL not sure what is going on.
Can anybody suggest a fix? I really need this phone and i don't want to lose any data.
(I've backed up my personal files, i meant i don't want to lose any internal data that cannot be backed up)
Please.

I guess you are able to reach recovery mode. If yes, then u should connect it with computer. Try installing a custom rom (i would suggest CM11).

Um thank you so much for the suggestion.
But unfortunately when i try to boot to recovery, the stock recovery opens up, not the CWM i flashed.
I tried to flash a fix for it, but it also didn't work.
But i guess flashing a new ROM will be the last option i have, so....do flashing one delete all my data? And if so, can i restore all internal data if ever i'll back it up? Thank you SO much for replying.

Well, then try three button combo (volume-down + home + power) to boot into bootloader and flash TWRP with odin.
No, your files in internal and external storage are not deleted when you format dalvik,cache,system and data partitions.
Edit: volume-down + home + power (boot to bootloader)
volume-up + home + power (boot to recovery)

Okay thanks.
By the way what version of TWRP would work great? (I have XXANF4 stock kernel btw, i still can't access the main screen of the phone after booting up)
And if i wipe system and data partitions will it delete the settings i have on the phone (ex. WiFi connection history, Bluetooth transfer history etc.)?
Thanks again.

TWRP:- Refer the link i posted earlier.
Yes, all the settings and apps would be deleted.

Dang it.
Wanted to keep it.
But thanks anyway.
I still can't access the phone. It just boots up, shows the lockscreen, then crashes and automatically reboots, then gets stuck in a bootloop.
I wanted to install a custom rom like you said but i cannot copy the rom files to the sdcard (the phone's still inaccessible).
Any more suggestions? Thanks.

Also, when i try to flash the TWRP 3.0.2 you sent, Odin gives me an error that the md5 is invalid.
I still don't know what the hell is going on.

Also, the reboot problem existed since i installed root apps, the system crash existed since i installed a custom launcher. (Nova to be exact). I don't know if that has connection to problem.
Can anybody help?
I can't just format this phone i have internal data and settings that i cannot delete.

Do a factory reset
Go to advance and format system and data
Then flash Stock Deodex Prerooted rom by akshay
Done
It won't delete anything
Flash cwm for star via odin
Then flash twrp via cwm
Remove ur SD card and using a card reader copy ROM file into SD card.
Mount ur SD card
Then flash the rom

I mean, it deletes all the settings right? Like WiFi hotspots and bluetooth transfer history and every app i have on my phone. I just can't wrap my head around the idea that i will delete all of that just because my phone crashes on passing through the boot screen. . .

U couldn't mention what tweaks did u installed to boost the phone and what exactly happened.
So,all I can say is 'do a factory reset'..
Just flash official firmware. The problem was automatically fixed without wiping data.

So i can just normally flash the stock firmware through Odin and Download mode and not wipe data? Is that correct?
