[Q] wi-fi not working after flashing bamf - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So after flashing both bamf 1.5 and the radio attached to it, my WiFi seems to be malfunctioning. I first installed the radio and then the Rom afterwards. Should I try flashing the radio again? I did a Google search and a couple of forums said that flashing the same radio again would just brick my phone.
What should I do to get WiFi back?

No signal!!

Hello,
i downloaded the mr2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160346&highlight=ota+mr2 i downloaded and installed, after verifying the md5, i dropped the file onto the root sd card and then i rebooted with hboot, which i believe is when the phone is off and i power it on holing down the power and down volume buttons, after the radio was installed i got no signal, how can i fix this problem?
You're unrooted on stock?

You need a ROM that's compatible with that radio.

i got signal now, i went ahead and installed bamf along with the radio, which gave me no signal, the reasoning was because i saw another thread about someone was asking if they should install the radio first, or the ROM first, then later they said they got it to work....well MINES WORKS NOW!!!
Well i had BAMF and it was working fine and all, then it just froze...ok i just rebooted and it was fine, and again it froze and i had to remove batter. So i decided to go back to when i originally rooted the phone, which has the mr2 radio, and since it is what causes me to have no signal. How do i remove the mr2? me taking a wild guess, would i need to flash PG05IMG_mr1_upgrade? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996616
problem is fixed now, i went ahead and flashed PG05IMG_mr1_upgrade from the link and it works fine now, for some reason mr2 does not allow me to get signal at all

[Q] flash rom or radio first?

Quick question. I couldn't find the answer searching. I am upgrading from bamf 1.6.3 to 1.8.6 and will also be upgrading to the mr2 radio. Should I flash the Rom and then the radio? Or vice versa? Thanks.
Flash the ROM first. You won't have service. Then flash the radio from bootloader.
Really, though, it doesn't matter. The thing to avoid is getting into a bootloop where the ROM won't boot completely, but the radio is still named pg05img.zip on the root of your sdcard, so you can't get into recovery and fix the ROM.
As far as I'm aware, the only side effect of having a mismatched radio/ROM combo is that you'll have no service. Can someone verify this?
Ok Thanks guys. I have everything downloaded currently and on the root of my sd card. So going to flash the rom, then rename radio file, and flash the radio.
Ok, I flashed rom then radio and everything looked good. I did a restart after restoring everything with titanium backup and now its stuck on the Thunderbolt screen. What should I do? It's been like this for 15 minutes.

If everything went well before TB, reflash, and don't restore any system apps. Some suggest not using TB to restore data either. Makeva nandroid before restoring anything.

Did you restore system data too? sometimes that can bugger things up. I usually only restore system settings that are in green, if any.
You can always just wipe and reflash the rom.
Ok. I just pulled out the battery and rebooted and all was fine. I did restore system settings that were in green. So I guess that may have been it.

[Q] Experiencing random reboots

After sometime my cell phone is rebooting all times.
If it goes idle and I press the button to wake it, it reboots.
I've used some custom roms including CM7.
After I restored to my original firmware which is Claro Brazil, it keeps rebooting all time .
Anyone know what can I do? I even sent it to motorola and they don't do a thing. All they say is that it don't have any defect .
Thank you
Jayson
Did it start rebooting after you after you restored to the original firmware,
or did you restore to the original firmware to try to fix the reboots?:

I've flashed that build of ICS of dev thread and it seems to be rebooting less times.
How did you flash the rom?
Are you using romracers recovery?
Did you do a full wipe before flashing the rom?
You might make sure you have romracers latest recovery,
and then run this script for a full wipe:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421261&highlight=moto-fastboot+script
and then load a new rom and see if that fixes it.
You can also flash the Kernel and the radio too.

First I installed IHOP_Bell.sbf with sbf_flash to be able to unlock with moto-fastboot. After that did install CWM.
All my roms are installed with CWM with its cache/data and stuff wipe.
How can I know the right kernel and radio for me?
Same for me. I think this is a radio issue, where can we find lastest radio? Do we need to flash it like rom via RR CWM?
Thanks.
I get random reboots all the time. I was thinking it was a problem with wireless or bluetooth... Last time it rebooted was this morning, I docked it before going to bed, and 5 minutes later i hear the double-ding of it mounting internal storage at boot. At the time it wasn't running anything but the dock-widget clock.
I've had it reboot while on the bus listening to music with the phone in my pocket, I've had it reboot while docked and sitting idle, but youtube and flash are the real killers while actually using the phone, for me at least.
I find it reboots less if I leave wireless and bluetooth off, but what is the good in that?
I've had the random reboots probably since I upgraded to gingerbread, but even moreso after Bell 2.3.6 OTA.
I wonder if there is a way to prevent it from rebooting, so we can see what actually causes it to spontaneously reboot.
Im getting random reboots too, but figured it was from the build of CM7 i'm running (23-Nov. Was thinking of doing a full wipe then reload sometime this week. will report my results.
Hi!
Same thing happened to me. What I did was, I flashed to a different radio for it to be fixed. The stock doesn't seem to work on mine and I can't have signal reception.

I'm also getting reboots when I'm not on wifi.... Sometimes takes 15 mins once I'm not on wifi using 2.3.6 bell with latest radio.

I've already did it without success.
Now I'm trying this new Radio:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175750
N_01.100.00R
because I'm pretty sure it is a Radio issue.
I previously had N_01.95.00R wich seems to be an Asian Radio that probably (hopefully) doesn't work properly here.
I will tell you if it will fix the problem.
Hi there,
I also have random reboots on my Atrix.
Till now, I tried to change rom, recovery, reset data factory, use no apps, etc. But it never worked, and the reboots are still happening without any logical explanation.
I'm also thinking about a Radio problem, mine is : N_01.100.00R
I'll try changing it this evening, maybe it will fix things.
I'm trying a new radio too.
It didn't reboot yet.

Just had my second reboot in 5 minutes with N_01.100.00R...
Basically, it happens only in 3G and never in 2G, so I really think this is a radio issue, but I can't find alternatives...

Am I bricked?

I flashed midnight ROM. put the AOSP theme over it. Flashed the newest MAC Kernel, and that's when it started happening.
I decided to factory reset and flash the ROM again, tried to restart. same thing.
restored a backup (after factory restting), no dice.
Wiped boot/data/system, factory resetted, wiped both caches and reflashed midnight ROM. Still nothing.
Tried to flash CM9 (after factory resetting and stuff) and it still won't go past the HTC screen no matter how long I wait.
What's wrong? Am I half bricked?
I'm using the Evo V with S OFF on downgraded HBOOT.
You need to downgrade your radios as well to flash aosp roms. Run an older RUU, which will set you back to stock, flash your recovery and then flash midnight again

So basically, upgrade my HBOOT (since stock is on a upgraded one) again and flash a stock ROM then downgrade again?
I was thinking of doing this, but why did this problem come up in the first place?
I can't do it because I don't have an extra SD card around. If I put the hboot upgrade on my SD card, the bootloader won't start up because it gives you the option to install it or not install and either way, it turns the phone off.
Got it figured out. When I flashed a different kernel, it broke the other kernel or something. I had to flash the ROM's kernel separately. I don't know why.
I'm not sure why, but it did. Anyways, it seems to be working now!

Glad that you got a solution and that you were also detailed in your response. Perhaps someone in the future that sets aside the time to research and read will be able to either get themselves out of a mess - or - possible avoid one. Cheers!

Can't make calls after S-Off.

Everytime I go to make a call or receive a call the phone force closes and then signal drops off. I have flashed new kernals and have done a clean Rom install and problem continues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try reflashing a kernel. Might try stock first, then maybe Elkay's or dsb's writeable.
In case you're doing it a different way, try flashing it this way: flash the boot.img using the Flash Image GUI app. Then flash the corresponding modules for that specific boot.img kernel (can't mix and match) in Recovery.
If that doesn't help the situation, you may need to flash a different radio.
HTH!

Perhaps you accidentally flashed your radio partition? Reflash your radio and you'll probably be good to go. Either that or like someone else said try a different sim card.

If you are getting com.android.phone fcs. then reflash ruu, DL' a rom of choice on your computer and transfer using ADB push (will take a second) . reboot to bootloader. flash boot.img, boot to recovery, flash modules, then flash custom rom. when phone reboots, wait about 45 seconds before running setup. If this process still does not work, please report back. Or PM me or another RC so we can figure it out for you in a quick manner.

Yeah so it was a rom issue then
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
Not a Rom issue, I've had the problem on viper and hatka, both before and after soff and new radio. New kernel, old kernel.
I'm getting ready to try stock 1.15 before I ruu.. will report back.
Edit: Fresh off RUU, with the old radios flashed before the RUU. Still no change. Tried turning phone off, remove sim card, phone on, try to use cell connection (obvious failure), phone off, insert sim card and boot. Still no good. About to try above method using CWM and Digital Dream, as soon as it downloads.
Edit 2: Still no such luck. After digging through system logs, there's quite a few errors pertaining to the radio, IccCard, and RIL. One that particularly caught my eye was an error that there stated Ril_get_icc_status returned an error, and it should never return an error. Unfortunately, I didn't get a capture on the time I saw that, the radio reset which Su to reset which caused catlog to reset. Still have quite a few errors pertaining to SIM problems as well. I am way over my head after this point. I can interpret java, and linux.. but not so much understand when they're mixed together in Android.
http://www.pastebin.ca/2317800 This is logcat capture I got of the radio log. Unknown technology doesn't sound good to me....
http://db.tt/nbYfqEkb A full system log as soon as I could save after the force close. Couple things here and there.
I suppose if I can't get it fixed in a day or two.. off Verizon for a replacement. What's the purpose of a phone if I can't make phone calls on it?

Unless an error loops continually, its okay.
Have you tried to manually select a different network? I'm not quite sure how to do it on a sense rom, but I do know that when I was messing around within my CM10 build and changed to the wrong network type, I lost 4G data in sense. I reflashed CM10, selected a different network and then flashed back and it was working.
Have no fear...
THE MAN IS HERE!!!
OK guys honestly if it's up to me, we should all be scared ****less if we were relying on me. I bought a DNA with this problem to see if I could fix it and so far I've relocked, run the RUU twice (executable 1.15) unlocked and flashed recovery and done clean rom installs, kernels, switched to every network mode imaginable. I took my sim out of my DNA working perfectly so I know the sim is good in a different DNA.
I just flashed the 2.04 radios and I'm going to see what that does. I promise I'm going to give this issue my everything though because I gave a lot for this phone that's otherwise NIB condition and MINT. OK and the radios didn't help
