[Q] Bluetooth Problem with o2 latest firmware KI4 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just updated my o2 i9100 via Kies to latest firmware PDA:KJ1 /PHONE:KI4 /CSC:KJ1 (O2U)
Everything seemed to go ok and phone rebooted
Now when I switch on Bluetooth a message apears telling me there are open available bluetooth devices and then crashes.
Screen goes blank - quick flash of o2 Startup "water" and startup screen then media scanning complete and keeps looping until I can catch it by turning off bluetooth. Then its stable!!!
Newbe needs help please
BTW all was working fine before update

I have the same issue, also noticed that in 'Running Services' there are 2 copies of BLUETOOTH SHARE running, one showing 28.00KB, the other 0.00B, otherwise all other functions running ok.

Does everyone with the latest O2 firmware have this problem? I'd be grateful if anyone else could say if Bluetooth is broken for them too.
Thanks.

Updated yesterday (KJ1) no problems, switch on bluetooth, notification comes up showing available devices.

Downgraded and then let Kies try again.
This time all working!
Not sure what went wrong the first time as both times got exactly the same messages and success at the end.

How did you downgrade ?

I used factory reset.
remember to backup data first

Factory reset resolved Bluetooth issues, thanks

I've been having this problem despite several full wipes. This is happening on the leaked XXLPB (ICS firmware) as well so it doesn't seem to be a software related.
When I enter commands such as *#232337# (Bluetooth Address) or *#232331# (Bluetooth Test Mode), I can't find Bluetooth details (such as Bluetooth MAC address etc.). I'm wondering if I should send the phone for repair.
Would like to hear if this is a known problem and there is a possible fix other than a full wipe.

WiFi is not working

My WiFi is not working when I turn it on. When I turn it on, it just do nothing. I tried to run WLAN Module Test to check the problem using Self Diagnostics, sometimes it can detect the MAC address, means OK, but sometimes it shows error saying "GetAdapterInfo() return FALSE....".
For your info, I already reflash the updated ROM (0426), but it seems not working. Now, I'm using ATOM EXEC ROM (0721).
Can someone please help me before I send my ATOM to repair center?
You sure this isn't after an ActiveSync session? My device often needs a soft reset after a session.
Yeahhh... I'm very very very sure about this! Eventhough I didn't use Activesync, the same problem still happened.
I tried to downgrade the ROM, the WiFi still not working!
I have the same problem as idzilhafis.
Tried to run Self Diagnostic and got the same two answers, sometimes the module is correctly detected and somtimes not.
When the module is detected during the test, also the Access Point name is detected (I have a wifi AP at home), but the connection doesn't work.
When I use Wireless Manager, the module is not alwais detected and sometimes also the wifi button disappears.
Of course I flashed and re-flashed the firmware, using the original manufacturer's latest ROM and the "not for sale" version. Nothing changes.
May be an hardware failure?
I think, I can answer myself.
Yesterday in the evening I did put the Atom in the fridge for a while, because i noticed that using the pda and then increasing its temperature, the module was never recognized.
Using the pda after an hour of fridge (I did put it in a little bag), the wifi module works like a charm. It is ok until it's temperature raise again, then the module hangs.
Such a behaviour is typical of an hardware fault.
I think that this kind of problem is surely not due to a wrong use, and should be covered by warranty. But I don't know where to send it for service (I'm in Italy).
Any idea?
I had tremendous problems with my O2 Atom WIFI which would not connect to my laptop WIFI LAN Network. I asked O2 Technical People & Lot of people on this and other forum but got no perfect response.
Practically trying many options I by chance put back the old ROM upgrade of O2 2006123-45 and tried switching on the WIFI and lo and behold it worked fine.
Then I reload the new ROM 20060426 again and it works fine.
This proves that if you reload the NEW Upgrade ROM more than once it locks the WIFI.
No, it proves that any ROM upgrade can result in strange things, and reflashing either the same ROM or another ROM can fix it. It's well known with stuff like battery use (some users have had their standby time doubled by just reflashing the same ROM).
I sent to o2 expert and he don't know what to do. Tried to change registry, still not working. Tried to reflash, stillnot working. I think hardware problem. Don't worry, I still got warranty!
Hi All, I'm a newbie.
Pls shows me where can I download this oldrom O2 Atom 2006123 (-45)?
Or Who can give it to me through email: [email protected] ?
Help me pls, tks a lot

[Q] Wifi hotspot and usb tethering problem on GB

Hi, I finally decided to post my question after many hours searching trough google and xda.
Two weeks ago like many of you I uptdated my x10 to pre-rooted 2.3.3 stock Rom. At this moment I successfully tested wifi hotspot and usb tethering built in fonctions.
But Recently I tried to use it again but any time I checked the option, Android activate it for a second, an then says me "error" under the option name. Usb tehter can't be reactived at all and wifi hotspot can be checked but always uncheck himslef with the error subtitle.
Anyone facing this issue or know where it can come from ? And maybe the fix of course ^^.
Hope I made my self clear because actually I'm french.

I use Baracle to solve the issue with wifi tethering
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.szym.barnacle&feature=search_result
Yeah this is the solution I used to adopte when was on 2.1. And it was the best until the update.
But as far as what I tested when built-in tether worked it's clearly better. Not just an Ah-hod network but a real hotspot. Basically it's easier for other devices to connect and remember the password without configuring everything especially on windows.
And the usb option was even better, nothing to configure, no password, battery charging during tethering.
Anyway thank for the advice, until I get the solution I'll probably continue to use this app.
When you say "solve the problem with wifi tethering", do you mean you have the same one ?

Please, no one else, am I the only one facing the issue ? Even on an other device maybe ?
Finally I used SEUS to repare and root it like azazu said. Everything is back. Didn't find any other solution

I have the same problem and it never has been working from the start ! but USB tethering has no problem. The only way to fix it is to re-flash ?
Well I guess this is the best until someone more expert than us find a solution. I made a reparation with SEUS (sony ericsson update service) and then restore all back with Titanium Backup. Remember to save your contacts and sms before (cause Titanium doesn't). It only took one hours to get it all back just like before (root, bravia, Xloud, fps uncap...)
Hotspot error UNSOLVED 2012-02-01
Here's what I've done so far. I've suffered from this issue on two different Samsung Galaxy TAB's 7" (1 generation), two different Samsung Galaxy S2, two different HTC Desire HD, one ZTE Blade.
This issue is NOT caused by:
*Manufacture of phone
*Internet Service Provider (ISP)
*Operator
*Bluetooth ON/OFF
*root ON/OFF
*Stock Kernel
*Mod Kernel
*Stock Rom
*Mod Rom
*Stock Modem
*Mod Modem
*Android version: 2.3+ has this issue. (I've experienced a different issue on 4.0+; the Hotspot is up running although no device can connect to it.)
The only solution I've found is:
(From Clockwork Recovery):
Wipe Data(system reset)
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Format Cache
Format Data
Format System
-Install a Rom (try a different one from what you are using right now).
Reboot
RESULT:
Hotspot working fine....for a while..
When it stops working; you'll have to do the steps above again. Install a different ROM, now you probably can return to your previously ROM which had this issue first. It will probably work. If it doesn't, switch ROM till you find one that works. Sometimes, total randomly; you will be able to use ROMS which this issue has been present earlier.
Yet, this is NOT a permanent solution. You will, no exceptions, experience this issue, on whatever ROM, modem, kernel, stock, not stock, phone, whatever, whatever you choose.
Here's one scenario which I couldn't figure out:
Galaxy TAB 7" 1st generation.
Android 2.3.4
*HOTSPOT ERROR*
WIPE/FORMAT
RE-Flashed Same Rom
*HOTSPOT WORKING*
1 hour later
*HOTSPOT ERROR*
WIPE/FORMAT
RE-Flashed Same Rom
*HOTSPOT WORKING*
5-10 minutes later
*HOTSPOT ERROR*
WIPE/FORMAT
RE-Flashed Same Rom
*HOTSPOT ERROR*
?????
I've also noticed that USB tethering is affected by this issue aswell.
If you have it working, congratulations! Use it while it lasts, nothing stays forever.

[Q] 4.0.3 and Bluetooth disconnecting

Hi all,
I use a GPS Receiver (qStarz 818XT) and Trackmaster App with my Galaxy S2 whilst doing trackdays.
Previously running 2.3.3, 2.3.4 & 2.3.5 the system worked perfectly.
Having upgraded to 4.0.3 (XWLP7 stock) I found that as soon as the phone locked itself (screen off) the software stopped logging/receiving. If I keep the screen on all is fine. Now unfortunately on a motorcycle trackday my phone gets locked and put in my pocket.
Having reverted back to 2.3.5 (XWKJ1) the App / GPS Receiver works perfectly, as intended with the screen locked, continuing to log data.
Is this a known Bluetooth problem with 4.0.3 dropping out? Any solutions?
Many thanks all.

It is not a known bug ... for me.
Maybe you should try some of the newer ICS ROMs, such as XWLPD or XWLPF.
Official Firmware thread is here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Try to wipe cache partition (and Dalvik cache) after flashing ICS.
If that does not help, you may have to do a factory reset.
So, please make a backup before !
Good luck !
Hi,
You can try my app "Bluetooth Keepalive" from the market, it automatically prevents android standby when being connected via bluetooth.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy SIII (GT-I9300) International Crashing And Rebooting

Hi, I'm having a curious problem with my S3 and I've been unable to solve it. I watched the "noob" video and tried searching these forums as well as a google search with various combinations of the wording for my problem. Nothing matching my issue turned up, I hope I didn't miss anything.
I recently bought a S3 second hand (yes, i know, i should have known better). It was rooted and running some kind of custom ROM when I first turned it on, but I was willing to deal with it until I double checked the procedure for getting it back to stock and starting again myself (nothing against the original rooting and flashing, just like to know exactly what I'm running).
When I purchased the phone I obviously checked that all of the main things worked - calling, texts, mobile data, wi-fi etc. I get home and connect to my home wi-fi and start checking things out and setting stuff up. The phone randomly rebooted. I carry on after the reboot and about 10 mins later, another restart.
To cut a long story short, there is something wrong with the wi-fi. If I turn off wi-fi in the settings menu and reboot, everything works great. No crashes, no reboots. If however I enable the wi-fi about 50% of the time it will crash while wi-fi is activating. The other 50% of the time, it will crash as it goes into the screen lock (either via timeout or pressing the button).
I've re-flashed to it's stock version of Android (using the 'Samsung GS3 Toolkit and Odin), same problem. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance
You can try updating the modem and RIL to the right version for your country, search in general forum. If it still reboots then try with another wifi source - I've seen some routers cause problems on client machines.
If you do a factory reset when you flash the modem, plus you have the latest stock ROM on board, then any remaining problems are probably hardware.
Test it fully after the factory reset, before you add any apps etc.

After much experimentation and flashing of various files to my phone I have further narrowed the problem. I've still not solved it, but getting closer I feel.
After a clean ROM flash it works like a charm regardless of how much i use the wifi etc. It's only after the first reboot that the trouble starts. It will begin randomly restarting. If I perform a factory reset from recovery mode, it works again, but starts resetting again after a reboot.
Any ideas?

Problems switching on Wifi on Galaxy S5 LTE (SM-G901F Android 6.0.1) Original ROM

Hello,
since a couple of days I experience a problem with my WIFI. The phone is neither rooted nor does it use a custom ROM.
When trying to switch on WIFI it turns into light green, then green and then it changes back to gray immediately. Same behavior can be seen when trying to switch WIFI on via settings.
This behavior appeared all of a sudden, I dont think that I changed something or installed a new app that could have caused that error. Maybe there was an update of an already installed app...
I then installed a terminal emulator and tried to start wifi via command line with
Code:
svc wifi enable
. That command immediately causes a message:
Code:
reset_reason_init
Killed
Wifi module seems to work. I've done
Code:
ifconfig
and it comes up with a usual result except it does not have an counters > 0
I've also tried another app called "Wifi Analyzer". That app seemed have no problems with wifi since it shows a huge number of networks around (but of course does not connect to them)
So, from my point of view there is an issue with Android that wont let me start WIFI. I think it is not a problem with hardware.
I really need my WIFI. I also tried do do a factory reset. But that doesnt help either....
Any ideas on how to fix that issue?
Regards
Olaf
Go to Sammobile. Com and download the firmware you are on currently on check this by booting to recovery mode or check in settings menu about
Once you have it downloaded flash it in odin to your s5 then everything will hopefully be working this is a small chance of lost data so backup any important data before you flash the firmware in odin
If you have any questions just ask
sent from my nexus 4 I also own a voyager tablet and an I-phone 4s
