Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me out. I checked the forums although I cannot find an answer.
Been trying to switch roms and get this issue with every rom, that my phone won't find the baseband. So I crash the server and it works, but I get the error phone stopped working unexpectedly. So I found that this problem only occurs when my sd card is inserted. If I remove it the rom picks up signal.and no crashes.
So I tried a different card, same issue, I format the card, same issue, etc...
Is there any fix? any help would be much appreciated
Thank you.

Try a clean flash and install. Reflash the latest FW, root and install XRecovery. Then make sure you do a full wipe, wipe cache, dalvik and battery stats before installing the ROM. That usually gets rid of all those odd little bugs. You can also unmount your SD card without physically removing it but hopefully the clean install will clear up your troubles.

Ok, I got that before going straight to a Froyo custom rom, try a EWJET 2.1 custom ROM first and see if you still have that problem. I did that and didnt have problem moving up but I went back again to 2.1 for other reasons.

Thank you for responding. I gave that a shot, well i tried in two methods.. i downloaded for xrecovery a clean rooted, xrecovery installed of the stock rom.. then followed the steps and got the same issue.. so i thought to do a full factory wipe using sony's tool, went back to stock rom, rooted, xrecovery installed, etc.. flashed the rom, same issue.. i tried this with several roms and cannot seem to bypass this error.. it almost seems like its just me due to limited info in the forums...
i guess i'll keep trying, thank you for your help.

I gave this a try, downloaded the latest EWJET 2.1, everything worked fine on that rom, no crashes, etc.. so i tried flashing several roms thereafter, without success..
could it have anything to do with being on a locked bootloader?

Hello -
I was wondering if someone could give me a hand for a second. I'm running an x10a, Firmware 2.-update1, Baseband 2.1.54, Build # 2.1.A.0.435, rooted, xrecovery, etc, etc
I carefully read all the instructions to many of the Roms out there, and checked to makes sure I am on the correct baseband, etc, now when I flash to any rom, it installs, boots, etc, but every single rom I have tried always gives me the error Phone Stopped Working Unexpectedly and keeps popping up every three seconds or so, it only stops when I enable air-plane mode.
I tried the Dev Tools > Crash System Server, etc, but it doesn't seem to solve the issue as many forum postings suggest..
would anyone have an idea how to solve this issue?
Did you make sure to do a full wipe and wipe cache, dalvik and battery stats before flashing the ROMs?

Maybe one. Thing can help you out is flashtool try flashing the stock Rogers rom whit flashtool and afterwards flash custom roms just to make sure if its not the phone that is faulty.

Yes I had done this each time. I also read in the posts that you are supposed to wipe the cache "after" the rom is installed, I tried all the methods and not having luck..
Also do I need to flash to a stock rogers rom? the phone originally is unlocked internationally...
Dont wipe cache after install. If you havent done anything with it yet you dont have anything cached. Reflash a ROM without wiping the cache afterwards and see what happens. If that doesnt work reflash the latest global generic FW, reroot, reinstall XRec and try another flash. There is no reason that you would need to flash a Rogers FW except if you were bringing the phone in on warranty.

How did you flash and what baseband are you running? I did a factory reset, flashed stock recovery, flashed stock 354 rom, flashed streakmod recovery, flashed 1.9.1, then did a Dell factory reset. Sounds worse than it really is. I haven't experienced your problem (nor other problems posted by other users) and can only assume that flashing over a fresh stock rom install in some way helps.
Did a cursory test of wifi tethering and it seems to work fine.
Paired my old iphone 3g and browsed a bit and no hitches.
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Installing streakdroid leaves all data in place so reinstalling is only half of it

Im pretty sure did the same thing more or less.. i forgot to mention that it used to work until i tried to create a password for users to connect, upon trying to change or enable a wep code, the activity crashed and since then, it gave me errors everytime i try to enable tethering...

I am trying to install the G Harmony ROM with BL 1.2[http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007455]. The install of the ROM itself is very smooth. After flashing the ROM, I tried to flash the G-apps using the file provided in the OP. The install went on smoothly. On reboot, however, I don't see any Google apps in the system anywhere. Indeed, even Titanium Backup, which was working well before I flashed the G apps, tells me I am not rooted. I tried wiping data,cache,dalvik and fixing permissions, but same result every time. I even tried flashing the CM7 G-apps, but same results. Any ideas, anyone ?
I am in the identical situation with BL1.1 or 1.2. about to try Cyanogen just to see if it's my tablet or not.
Just tried the latest cyanogen mod 7.0.3 and latest gapps. No Gapps or market from that ROM either. Dunno what we are doing wrong. Do we have to wipe our Internal SD's? I used gapps-gb-20110613-signed from cyanogen...and still no apps/market.
I also just tried wiping my SD card (internal), and formatting system. Had to nvflash back to stock. Atttempted G-harmony again. Same results. No apps will install from GoogleApps-GRJ22. It's really strange, the install appears to go fine from clockwork, then there is just nothing there.
Here is what I did to get gapps.
install rom, run it once.
innstall gapps, run it, and the screen will ask for gmail account and password
after failing to connect, its going to ask if you wanna connect by wfi..
done deal.

@hungrymr2 - that is what is not happening. After flashing the ROM, I am flashing the G-apps. I would normally expect to see the google set up screen on reboot, but there is nothing - no set up screen, no G-apps.
Interesting, i think it happened to me before. I had to reinstall the rom or a different one.

Went back to CM7 for now.
Looks like the matter has come to the attention of the dev. Hopefully there will be a resolution soon.
Make sure you clear dalvik code and cache. Might be a good idea to format the internal sd as well. Just good practice to clear everything each time you install a new rom.
Okay, I have gotten so blasted close with getting a custom rom on this phone. I can get them installed now and they are wonderful I tried gummy and aokp but for the life of me I can not get data to work I can not make or recieve phone calls. I am in roaming all the time too. I have gone through all settings and scoured the forum and I can not find an answer anywhere. Am I missing something totally obvious here? Does anyone maybe have any suggestion? Thank you guys for your help. It's just frustrating that I am so close.

What is the status of your Photon currently? Assuming it is rooted and unlocked, running what rom? Please provide info on what rom you are on now, which one you flashed from, and what process you used to get where you are. The more info provided the easier it will be to help.
Well lets see, currently I am back on stock, but here is what I did. I rooted, unlocked, installed CWM 5.0.2.7 I also flashed jokers recoveryv3 ( I follow QB's videos) So then I installed the gummy rom using this process. Format system, format data, format cache, wipe cache then dalvik cache. flash rom, flash rom again ( now I did not reboot into recovery after I flashed the rom the first time) I just went straight to install rom again. flash gapps, fix permissions. Reboot up and good loving it all. Waited 15 min then rebooted again. That's it. So I am at a loss. Thanks for help if you need any other info please let me know.
Oh I am on 2.3.4 with 198_7 also
In your system settings did you have "home only" or "automatic" selected for your roaming settings? For a lot of these roms, "automatic" is forced roam. And then if you didn't have roaming data enabled, that would explain why you were constantly roaming with no data.

Thanks so much .
I did have automatic checked but I did have roaming data enabled also. I flipped it around too with home only. I am truly beginning to think my phone is just plain "off " who knows. It's a shame though, I mean not that stock is bad on this phone but the custom roms are so much better imo. This is the first phone I have ever had a problem with. I have been flashing phones for years. Think I started with a HTC Mogul. That was a solid phone LOL
Does CM7 work for you? If it does then I reckon flashing that and setting it up, then instead of doing a full wipe keep your data and flash CM9 based rom over it, fix permissions and take it from there.
I have not tried CM7 but I can, sure can't hurt to try at this point. Thanks, I will give that a try tomorrow.
Have you tried *#*#4636#*#*? Sometimes flashing changes the radio in that menu. Be careful though, changing something can really Bork your phone. It should be on cdma prl I think

Deb, my photon has never been kind to me with the 'flash twice' method. It always results in no data. Try cm9 again, but this time wipe cache, system, data, and dalvik, install version 3.1 of cm9, boot into it, reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalv, then install the latest cm9 version. Always works for me. Good luck

Morning all, your all are great. Okay so I am ready to start again. I'm at stock right now so I need to get her all set up again. (Yes my phone is a she) Acvice, I am going to try your method first will let you know in a bit.
Looks like joker's site may be down so I need to try and find the 2 cm9 roms
I have this rom saved already on my computer
beta-0.6.9.1-cm-9.0.0-RC0-sunfire-UNOFFICIAL-signed.zip
Wonder if I should try that one or just wait
After I install CWM 5.2.0.7 do I also need to flash joker's v3 recovery?

Glad someone provided you with that 3.1 link. Looking forward to see if it works out for ya.
By the way, you will know it worked if when you boot up in 3.1 you have working data. Flashing the newer version after that will essentially just update everything.
Deb, I take it the flash of 0.3.1 didn't work? Did you have data and then lose it when you flashed 0.6.9.3? What were your exact steps. I just rooted/unlocked and flashed my f-in-law's new photon and it worked just fine. Lemme know what you did and maybe I can help more
sent from my CM7 MoPho
Thanks bullfrog that's nice of you but honestly I'm good now As you know.
I didn't even try to install 0.3.1. I kept thinking about it, seeing I had no luck with 2 others previously so I decided to go the MIUI route and I'm a happy camper with that one. I am a flashaholic for sure, as we all are here. I am thinking though, I am gonna just be happy with where I am at for now. Of course I will most likely decide to give another rom a try at some point.
Of course I am already eyeing a few Samsung Epic touch's on ebay. I hear that one can be a brick just waiting to happen....weeeee I am having way too much fun
I'm glad you made it to MIUI. if you ever want to try cm9 or and of the similar ones (aokp, gummy, paranoid) I would suggest flashing that 0.3.1 first, then updating to the latest cm9, then flashing the variant

Hi!
I'm having some troubles with my DX since one week, tried a lot of manipulation and nothing is working... So I am asking you if you have any idea?
The first problem I had was the wifi that didn't "lock", it switched itself all the time from ON to OFF and opposite. The rom installed was ELEGANCIA and the recovery was TWRP. I thought it was a problem with the Rom. To try solving the problem, and because I'm curious, I installed Sense Revolution R5 and with this came my second problem...
It couldn't boot anymore, I think I did it right, not the first time I do that but we never know. And since then I'm unable to install custom Roms. The only thing that works fine is installing stock recovery, re-locking the phone and reverting back to stock using RUU, doing that the phone boots normally as when he got out of the box. But with custom Roms the phone doesn't want to boot... Where could this problem come from?
And for the wifi there is no change, it is still giving me the same bug... or sometimes I have the "activation" message without anything happening or an "error" message...
I tried disassembling the phone, as it was really dusty in it, I thought it was the problem but nope...
Thanks (sorry for my english mistakes)
Some news: unlocking, rooting and flashing custom recovery work fine.
But I tried flashing a custom kernel, and again it doesn't want to boot...
Nobody has any idea of what else I could attempt?
perhaps you aren't flashing the boot.img first?
thanks for your interest! i've just tried that once more, but nothing changes...
I have noticed though that it won't boot every time I do a system wipe. Wiping cache gives no problem, haven't tried wiping Dalvik Cache yet, and "Factory Reset" gives me a "Failed" message.
(All this using TWRP, who once worked perfectly on my phone)
EDIT: I've juste tried wiping Dalvik Cache and it doesn't give any problem... So maybe is the problem coming from the wiping of the system?
No suggestion? still having those problems... :/
