Hey all,
The forums wouldn't let me post directly into Macro's thread, so I hope this is ok to post here:
Flashed MR5 to my wife's Eris tonight. Everything seemed to be going fine. Flashed MR5, Gapps and Launcher Pro. It started up just fine. When the setup screen came on, I noticed that I didn't have have any 3G or Network service. I've tried checking other threads on this and other forums, but to no avail. If anyone has had a similar issue, or knows how to solve this problem with this Rom, please help me out! I'm usually pretty adept with rooting and flashing droids, but this one caught me pretty off guard. =\
Thanks!
HAH! Never mind! Didn't notice that Mobile Network Settings > System Select was set to Home Only. Set it to Automatic, and Voila! Sorry for the post! But thanks anyways! If someone else has this issue, hopefully this will help them!

I have searched and searched, but can not find what seems to be an applicable fix, so here goes.
Ok here is my best description. Equipment: Rooted vibrant. The plot: Rooted. Ran fine for months. Yesterday purchased Rom Manager premium. Installed one of the premium roms. Can't remember the name of the rom. After install everything worked fine except I kept getting the error, "com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly" so I tried everything I could find related to that problem to fix it, but nothing worked. As a symptom the market, gmail, etc wouldn't work. Anyway I figured I'd just recover the last rom that I backed up and start over. So I did, but now the phone boots, goes to the "draw pattern to unlock screen" and won't recognize the fact that I'm actually drawing the pattern to unlock the screen. The "buttons" on the bottom of the screen recognize my touch (menu, home, search, back) as they darken when touching them.
So there the phone sits on the unlock screen. After a minute or two the screen goes blank, the phone vibrates once, and the unlock screen comes back and won't accept any input.
Is this fix applicable, or would it work in bringing my phone back to me?

I want to make sure as I don't want to further exacerbate the uselessness of my phone. I feel like I've lost a limb with it gone.
Thanks for any help.
Sorry to hear you found the worst gremlin of all. I'll get that from time to time when my phone feels like being stupid. Lucky for me, I can just reboot the phone, and she's back to normal.
As far your situation is concerned, I would probably try to use Odin and flash your phone back to stock so you can build it back up to whatever ROM you're on. This usually happens when you bounce back and forth between a froyo and GB ROM; or a ROM from a different dev that's used a different framework to make all his stuff work.
Jump into the link in my sig, and see if you can find the files you need. Otherwise, shoot me a message so I can link you to the files I use to go back to stock pre-rooted.
Lol, did you try this?

OK. The sticky worked. I admit I panicked, but IT WORKS NOW!! I'm just ecstatic! You guys rule.
I guess I was just gun shy. I bricked the snot out of my my-touch a year ago (still doesn't work).
Anyway, on to hacking.
Thanks again!
Awesome! Glad you got it werkin
Next time just try a simple Google search of the error itself.
*EDIT*
If you still have the mytouch I'd be interested in it. PM me if so
Yeah I tried to google the problem, but I was still stuck. None of the fixes seemed to work. Until google led me here.
I do still have the my touch. Mint condition, minus the fact it doesn't work! I'd like to get it working again if possible. Is there a way to odin the my touch? I tried and tried last year when I bricked it, but I never got it to work again. Is there a my touch forum here somewhere named something other than "my touch"?

hey guys this is my first thread seen as i cannot find any answers. in a nutshell, i have an s3 that is rooted purely to unlock it. im not too fussed as yet to get the fancy capabilitys in full throttle on a rooted device until i solve one problem.. just hear me out. if you need specifics on my phones firmware ect ask away and ill do my best. but all i can say is this..
i have had a galaxy s3 for a week now. the first thing i did was root it as it was locked. as far as i know i did it right, since it did unlock it and add the supersu icon and CWM icon. as for now i dont want to start messing with stuff like that until i know what im doing. and honestly i only just managed to root the thing after failing the first time. so my real problem so far is something i have heard of with no solution. the wifi and lock screen crash. ive sussed out that for every time i leave the house and go to work (that doesnt have wifi) and my wifi is left switched on, my lockscreen just will not let me in my phone with out me taking the battery out and turning the wifi off manually.
i need help. big help. i need to know waht im doing and doing wrong. i need a fix. a custom firmware a custom rom. what ever it is. i would be so greatful not to have this bug. and ill be honest. it took me 2 days to work it out. i work 9 hours a day and taking my battery 10 times and hour.. yeah.. please help me guys id be so appreciative of it.
thanks. danny.
As a last resort you could try a factory reset. You will lose all your data though and have to set things up from scratch.
Before going to that extreme you could enter recovery, then clear cache, then go to advanced settings and clear dalvik cache plus fix permissions. These are cure all solutions but they may help.

I had this problem and it is down to the method you use time root.
If you use the toolkit method it will cause this problem
but if you use CF-root to unlock your s3 you will have no problems at all.
You can find CF-root with a simple search hope this helps

Thanks guys I'll give these a go when I'm able to after work. I have infact done a factory reset that didn't undo the root. I'll post back on either success (hopefully) or if my problem persists. I really appreciate your advice.
Thanks in advance. Danny.
Good luck.
As your problem appears to be caused by leaving WiFi on you might try this app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801284
I've been using it since early beta release. It can switch WiFi off when your screen is off. Obviously it will not cure your problem but it might be a work around.

hey guys. i gave them both a try. i cleared my caches. i even fully unrooted my phone. did a reset. and installed the root the CF-root package.
but still. im having the same problem. i really am new to this. and i just dont know what to do. all i need the root for is to keep my phone unlocked. i dont care for any fancy thing you can do once rooted. i think im just going to wait till a new software comes out that can be rooted.
hopefully it will have fixed the bug or something. really appreciate the advice you guys have given me. thank you a lot.
i guess until then ill have to remember to turn my wifi off before i go out :/
thanks. danny.
Unroot by flashing your original or a stock rom and test is the only way forward .

Hi, I was running BAMF Sense 5.0 ROM and suddenly wifi stopped working. It just gets stuck at "Turning on Wifi".
I am S-Off and I've tried flashing another kernel but no luck.
Anyone know what's wrong?
Oddly enough this just happened to me earlier today. WiFi wouldn't connect to my home network, but could see all available networks in my area. I tried turning WiFi off and on again, bit would get stuck at "turning on" without actually turning on. My laptop was able to connect just fine.
The problem seemed to fix itself by rebooting my router. Hasn't happened since.

Hi, thanks for your reply.
That's not the problem for me. It literally just won't turn on no matter what I do. No restart works, resetting router, flashing kernel. It's really frustrating.

I've not been able to fix it. I since moved onto Lumia 1520, but still want to get my Droid working again. Was thinking maybe buying replacement parts and self-fixing. But looking online, HTC Ones look pretty cheap these days, so may just buy one of those instead. If I'm to repair it myself, I'm not entirely sure where the Wifi is.
Was thinking just buying this, but it is kinda pricey...

I installed official CM11 and everything is working great now.
Hello,
I'm looking for some help with my son's sgh-i757m phone. I'll try layout my history on the phone and question in some hopefully easy layout.
What I did
at my son's request, I changed the stock rom on my son's sgh-i757m (Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE) for him. He wanted to be able to install apps and customize his phone as he wished. i installed the paranoid android rom for him successfully.
Problem
Once installed he began losing cell phone network connection. This progressively got worse and now it barely works.
My troubleshooting
I tried installing other custom rom's to see if this would resolve the problem. Nothing seems to work. The present rom I have which is Dadoes. This one seems to work the best BUT i only get signal within 1 block of the cell phone tower. (oh ya... i live in a small town where we only have two cell towers in the valley here.)
I tried researching terminal commands to boost the radio signal but I haven't found anything for the sgh-i757m.
I've also done the *#*#4636#*#* trick... nothing... i've installed network boosters but those don't do anything.
What Haven't I done
I haven't tried to install a different radio rom... (maybe I did, but in my research there isn't an explanation if this is different from the OS rom).
I haven't tested whether it is a hardware issue as I don't know how
What I am asking
Can I get help regarding radio roms; is this different from OS rom's? if it is different... where do I find them and more information on this?
Can I get help on steps to test my hardware to see if this is the issue?
Any pointers if I am missing anything?
Thank you... oh and this is my first post.
I'm out of lurking and posting now.
Respectfully,

HI buddy , welcome to our section .
Now your problem, did you tried to reflash the stock ROM back after you saw that your phone is having problems to see if the problem is solving?
I did took a search on this forum and I found this thread :

Fixed - sgh-i757m connection problem
Well... thank you for your reply. I didn't have a backup of my son's original rom but my daughter just broke her phone and it was exactly the same. So, I thought I would back her's up then put it on my son's. What she did was break her screen. So, I thought I could swap screens or parts to make this work. I was able to take my daughters apart and was able to take my son's apart. In taking apart my son's phone, I found that the attenae cable wasn't attached to it's connector. So I plugged that in then tested and voila! It works!! pheew!! Was getting worried that I was losing my mind (maybe I did?).
Thank you for your help. I did do the custom roots and roms. Now my son can choose which one he wants!
Respects,

Hi folks,
Short version:
My rooted HTC One Max running ViperMax switches from 3G to 4G every 30 seconds or so even not touching the phone. Video of it here:

Long version with extensive history on the AndroidForums:

Thanks in advance!

Man I seemed to have stumped two forums! Grrr.
One consolation, with everyone off the 3G "highway" congestion isn't anywhere near as bad as years ago and I rarely buffer anything anymore on 3G.
Ah well. One more year until I qualify for a new phone, think they'll come out with a new version of this great phone?
Try a stock rom and see?
I don't think it's the ROM, I mentioned on the other forum (which I went into with more detail than here, link in my OP) that this problem occurred before my bootloop problem which caused me to do a factory reset. I was running stock back then. The problem still persisted, I thought it may have been a sprint problem. I was hoping this ViperMax ROM might fix my radio problem, but no dice.
Thanks for the reply!
p.s. I notice in your phone history you went from a Max to a One M8. Did you have a problem going to a smaller screen? I'm afraid I'm spoiled with this one.

Well you may want to take out your sim card and just insert it back. A re-seat as some people say or may wanna get a new sim. may want to factory reset with stock recovery. lots of options to try.
and it was very hard to go to m8. But the speed of the m8 makes up for the smaller screen size. But I still miss the large screen.
