Strange Wifi Issue - HTC Rezound

So here's an interesting situation.....let me preface this by saying I know exactly what I'm doing when it comes to flashing things.
I started out running RezRom 1.0, with Ziggy's kernel. I got no problems, no errors. Then I decided to try out Chingy and Newt's ROM Ineffabilis, which comes with the stock kernel. I flashed the new ROM, then the stock kernel, then Ziggy's kernel using Con247's auto installer. When I booted up, I got no Wifi connection. When I went into Wifi settings, it just says error, nothing more. So I went back to the stock kernel, and the Wifi came back.
Then I restored my Nandroid of RezRom, just to see what would happen with Ziggy's kernel there. Reinstalled Ziggy's kernel on RezRom, no problems. Flashed the stock kernel on RezRom, same Wifi error. Bizarre. Back to Zig's kernel, Wifi is back.
Thoughts anyone? Why would the stock kernel not work on one ROM, and Ziggy's not work on the other?

I am going with...
1: When you flashed ziggy's kernel you skipped a step or some small thing happened to cause an improper flash. You may have forgot to flash a file or the wrong one. (you have to flash 2 files, the kernel .zip file and .img file, if you are using a kernel different than what the ROM is designed for) This meant that when you went back to the stock kernel everything was fine.
2: You already had ziggy's kernel running properly in rezROM before making the backup, so restoring the backup and flashing ziggy's kernel meant everything was golden.
3: You forgot a step or flashed the wrong kernel .zip, pretty easy if you are juggling two different kernels and their respective .zip and .img files.
4: Going back to the prior kernel fixed the issue caused by 3.
The whole custom kernel setup for non S=off phones is a pain.

Nvm sorry about that

I know on the thunderbolt, sometimes if you flashed a kernel, it broke wifi. Wiping the wifi settings fixed it. You could do it with a terminal emulator, but we had an app from adrenaline.

You just need to re-flash ziggy's kernel and that should do the trick.

GB Kernel Issues

Okay I've posted about this before, but still can't figure it out...
My issue is this: When I install a GB rom, everything runs fine until my screen goes off.... its even fine if it goes off for a second, but if it sits for more than one second it reboots. A full reboot. I've tried both GB kernels, as well as MR 2 and 2.5. I've also tried using setcpu to set the minimum all the way up to 1.4GHz with no help.
Can someone help me fix this screen off issue? PLEASE?
Seems to have something with the dip in processor speed because when my phone is downloading from the market or signing in to google, or doing anything for that matter... the problem doesnt occur.
I don't really accept that I can't use Gingerbread because of this... there HAS to be a fix.
Thanks yall
What gingerbread roms have you tried? Also, what kernels were you using?

don't have this issue on Synergy 3.0 running the latest ziggy kernel
I've tried every GB rom on here, as well as both kernels
also, Ziggy kernel? You in the right section?
I would try wiping, then installing the setup in my signature, but don't restore any apps at first or sync with Google so they're downloaded automatically. I think that you've got an app and a kernel that's interfering with one another. Try the ROM bone stock before you start restoring apps and see if the problem is there.

when you say both kernels are you referring to the radios? cause mr2 and mr.5 are radios not kernels

I share your pain with this exact problem. I have been doing all types of testing these last two days to see if there is any combination of ROMS and Kernals that would work for me.
I can flash any ROM I want, and the only Kernal that I can successfully use is this one:
Imoseyan GB Stock Kernal
With this Kernal, I can use my phone all I want, let the screen go black, hit the lock screen button and I have never had a reboot.
I have run Thunderstick, BAMF 2.1, BAMF 3.0, Gingertheory, with this kernal and it will run fine.
When I change to any of these Kernals, I get the constant reboots when my screen goes off, just like the OP described.
* Imoseyon Lean Test
* Imoseyon 184mhz
* Imoseyon USBfix
* Imoseyon 2.5.3 test 7
* Nerozehl's dreamkernal 2.3.2
Of course, when flashing any ROMS and Kernal combinations, I would do a complete wipe before doing so. I should also mention that I am using MR2 radio. I can also use MR2.5 with the GB Stock Kernal and it runs fine.
So like the OP, it seems to be something to do with the kernal that my phone does not like and can't figure out. Anything other than the stock kernal, and my phone will constantaly reboot after the screen goes black.
I should also mention that I have used the speektweah.sh in terminal emulator and tried all of the different voltage settings and it had no effect. Also disabled it and tried using SetCPU and no luck either.
I have also tried all of the ROMS without allowing any apps to update by skipping the google account sign in. So basically all of the ROMS were running in their native state, and the outcome would be the same.
FOR THE OP
Try running the stock kernal and let us know if that works for you. You should just be able to flash it in CWM, reboot and you will know right away if it is working correctly.
The real question I need to figure out is this. What is different about the GB Stock Kernal from all the others that would be having this impact on our phones?
I've tried all of this except installing the above kernel. I'll give that a shot, thanks.
As for installing without apps, I've tried that. Tried everything. Lets hope the stock kernel works!
I've been running Das BAMF Gingerstripped with Imo's kernel and never had this issue. It sounds like maybe something is bad with the cpu profiling becoming unstable when screen-off profiles kick in.

I can confirm that this one worked for me too. Synergy 3.0 running Ziggy's Kernal and everything works well.
Anyone know where to grab just the Kernal? Can't seem to find the latest download.
I should also add, that when I do flash the Stock GB kernal so that my ROM will be stable.... my camera freezes everytime I try to take a picture. Happens in every ROM I mentioned above. However, it works fine before I flash the stock kernal.
running "stock kernel" it looks to be fixed. Looks like I tried this before as I already had the file but.... works now for some reason
Thanks.
Will report back if it ****s up

[Q] Flashing and Reflashing Kernels

I recently flashed KGB 12/2 with SC3 0.5 not realizing that 12/2 had issues. Anyway when KGB 12/12 got released I flashed that. It resolved all the slowdown problems.
This is the first kernel I have ever flashed. I just flashed the 12/12 kernel over the 12/2 kernel. Then I started to have internal memory issues. i.e. market apps wouldn't update due to low space on device.
I thought I found a solution after searching a while and thought it was because I flashed 12/12 over 12/2 without disabling lagfix. I then disabled lagfix, cleared both caches and then flashed 12/12.
Since I was unable to find a Q&A directly related to kernel flashing I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
What is the best way to flash the new kernel over an existing kernerl? Specifically regarding KGB kernels. I just used CWM but I feel like I should have used ODIN. Before I do anything further to mess this phone up I wanted to throw this out here.
Thanks in advance.
Kernel flashing is the same as flashing anyother zip. Wipe cache and dalvik then install zip from sd. If you are still having issues odin back to stock and start over. There also is a kernel cleaning script you can try before odining, but your best bet is to start over imo.
Ok...I installed the new kernel just like I would install any patch. I saw the kernel clearing script on a forum for another version of this device, but I'm assuming it will work. I'll give that a shot first. After all if it screws me up I'll be going back to stock anyway.
Thanks.
i switch kernels all the time but i do use a cleaning script every now and then just to be on the safe side. starting over would hurt a thing either.

[Q] Wifi Broken

I just got my Rezound and got it perm rooted and tried unsucessfully to make wifi tethering work.
I then tried to install CWM and all seemed fine but Wifi stopped working.
When I enabled Wifi I would get scanning then error.
I hard reset it and now I simply got an error.
I am not using a custom Kernal unless CWM installed one (I kind of doubt it)
Please help.
Bump
Please help
My WiFi is also broken. I'm perm root with Ziggy's kernel (Vigor GB Kernel) and Ching'ys rom (Ineffabilis v1.0). In Ziggy's thread it states that the WiFi error is due to the rom, not the kernel. Chingy's thread states that the WiFi error is due to the kernel not the rom. there are people using stock kernel and Chingy's rom with working WiFi.There are people using Ziggy's kernel on stock rom with WiFi working.Ii have tried wiping and re flashing. Still nothing. Anyone help would be great!!

If you have an Error under your wifi in settings, that means that you need to reflash the kernel. You will generally need to reflash the kernel AFTER the rom to get the wifi to work.
I have heard that its related to the Kernal not the Rom in all my readings. Unfortunately that does nothing for me since I havent changed the kernal or the rom all I have done install CWM and tried to get Wifi Tethering working. It broke sometime when I did those two things.
Have you gone back to stock on the Kernal? I have heard all over the place that people are having boot loops and wifi errors with Ziggy's Kernal. If you continue to have problems I would try the Kernal. I have never heard that a ROM has broken Wifi.

Wifi Error - fixed -- any explanation?

Mods, I'd have liked to have posted this as a reply to Andybones' thread, but I'm under 10 posts, so please move as needed.
So, I got my Rezound from eBay and figured I'd root it and update it.
Went through the HTC Unlock Bootloader process.
Setup Perm Root
Installed Amon Ra Recovery 3.1.3
Allowed OTA to take place to get to 2.01.605.11.
Went into Amon Ra and had it install superuser and su.
Figured it was an eBay phone and should be wiped clean, so from bootloader did a Factory Reset
After it rebooted a few times, phone came up and "Wifi Error". Everything else working perfectly- 3g, 4g, voice, bluetooth... just no WiFi. Unable to stop or start it in settings GUI.
Hunted online for "WiFi Error" and Rezound and found a few posts asking about clearing cache and dalvik; another few were referencing Kernel and/or module installs.
Cleared cache and dalvik to no avail.
Searched for 2.01.605.11 Kernel and found Andybones post. Installed the Kernel and Wifi was working with everything else again.
So the question-- now that it is fixed and working-- what the heck happened to have broken my WiFi for that duration? Was it when I did the Factory Reset that I somehow screwed up my Wifi Kernel Module? If so, how? Did Factory Reset install some older module or Kernel? Or, was there something broken in my OTA? I saw mention of one other person whose WiFi was broken after OTA to 2.01.605.11-- he also resolved by using the Andybones post to install the Kernel.
Unfortunately, after seeing that the WiFi wasn't working, I didn't think to check what Settings showed for my Kernel, or to try checking mass storage for file dates or versions-- I know those could probably have helped in ascertaining what occurred.
Anybody else experience WiFi broken after OTA?
Thanks in advance!
After I got the OTA I restored my Ineffabilis GB nand and didn't have working wifi even though I flashed the original 1.x stock kernel with it. I didn't get it working until I flashed the dsb kernel, which I had been running when I made my nand. I suspect that is because installing that kernel is more than just flashing the boot.img, there's an install using other folders that happens before the boot.img flash so I guess it is altering something else.
(I didn't try flashing the modules for the new kernel since I wasn't trying to use the new kernel, at that point I was wondering why I couldn't get wifi with the same kernels others were getting it on the same ROM.)
However, even when I did a clean flash of Ineffabilis I had the same problem of not having wifi even with the stock rooted kernel posted with that ROM. I would think at that point I would not have had any traces of the dsb kernel but that was the only thing that got me wifi so I have to assume that had something to do with it.
I would think you would have had wifi working on stock OTA since you should have had the 2.x kernel and everything else.
So it would seem that both of us had broken wifi in instances when it would seem we should have had working wifi, albeit for possible different reasons. I too would like to know why. I like fixes but I prefer to know why they work and what is being fixed.
Are you willing to factory reset again? I'm thinking of going back to stock OTA again and starting over with my ROM and seeing about switching kernels. One of my concerns in my situation is am I going to be able to switch from the dsb kernel if that's the only one that got my wifi working now? Others had wifi working with other 1.x kernel using the same ROM so I know the others work, just not on my phone atm.

dsb's kernel installs wifi modules, so since u made the nand using that kernel, that is why u got an error, until u added original stock 1x kernel wifi modules ud get an error.. or flash dsb's kernel like u did.
also when u did a fresh install of ineffibiliss is does install wifi kernel modules, but no a kernel. so you would of still had dsb's kernel even after doing a full fresh instal of inefibiliss. flashing the stock 1x kernel would fix wifi as it has the stock 1x wifi modules.
this is why when people updated to the OTA, and had the new kernel and then did a nand, or a fresh install of ineffibiliss they had wifi error, they needed the new OTA wifi modules.

But the only way I could get wifi back was flashing dsb. That's why I'm wondering about what that extra stuff is in the dsb package. After going stock I flashed the original stock rooted kernel that was posted with the ROM before and after flashing Ineffabilis again and still no wifi. But others who did those same steps did have wifi. This makes me concerned about being able to switch from dsb. I want to go back to stock anyway and start fresh since my status bar is crashing and uninstalling the apps I installed right before that started hasn't fixed it. So I'll experiment some more.
Trust me, I get what you're saying and it makes sense, unfortunately that hasn't been the case which is what all my previous posts were about.
Also the OP was completely stock and didn't have wifi and that doesn't fit the equation either.

i had this problem a few times...the last two times i think it was because i had wifi tether on then stupidly i turned on verizon tether app and so wifi and verizon mobile hotspot/wifi tether stopped working and kept giving an error message...i had to flash a version of incredikernel i had laying on my card and everything worked fine..kind of wierd but whatever lol and once i believed it just happened out of nowhere so i just reflashed everything..that time wiping and flashing the rom all over again worked but all other times i needed to flash a kernel. i believe i was running clean rom all those times and once happened on ICS i think..running the latest clean rom 1.6.5 and havent had those issues yet( knock on wood)

That's what I'd have thought, too. I am/was completely stock and my update was OTA. Didn't touch any 3rd party kernels or ROMs. I want to make sure phone works as intended before considering messing with other ROMs/Kernels.
EDIT: Found this older thread which is very similar -- mods can probably close mine or migrate the posts over to the older one since my query resembles what SquireSCA experienced.

Yeah, tempted to give it a shot after doing an Amon Ra backup to see if it was the factory reset that did me in. I can head back to the Andybones kernel thread to recover again if needed. Probably not going to test it right away though. Still settling in with the phone.
One variable that I didn't consider-- when I did my OTA-- I did not re-lock the bootloader prior. Any possibility of correlation?
I would say that's very possible. I didn't relock the first time so I redid the update using con247's Stock OTA ROM with his update file.
I have a nand of my phone from right after I did my OTA without relocking. When I get around to doing my fresh installs I will restore that and check it to see if I have the same issue. I'll probably do it when I get back home later tonight. I'll post back afterwards to let you know.
So I just restored my nand from when I went back to stock recovery, ROM and kernel (all 1.x) and then accepted OTA. wifi was broken until I flashed the new 2.x stock kernel. That was from when I got the OTA without relocking the phone. I meant to check what the kernel said before I flashed the 2.x stock one but forgot. Argh... now I want to go back to Ineff and do this again to check it.
EDIT: Well, I went back to my stock OTA nand again and the kernel shows as dsb. So I can't replicate what I did earlier since I had flashed the stock kernel before getting the OTA and I guess the nand doesn't back up/restore the kernel.
I don't know what condition wifi was in when I made the nand since I didn't know to check and I just made that as a safety copy and went back to Ineffabilis right away.
I did flash the stock 2.x kernel to get wifi working on stock OTA, then restored my Ineffabilis nand and again, the only way to get my wifi back was to flash the dsb kernel. The stock rooted kernel that came with Ineffabilis didn't do it. Gonna go post on the dsb forum and see what they say. Also, tomorrow I'm going to run the RUU and factory reset and try to get this thing totally clean and see if I can use a different kernel than dsb. Ineff was just updated to 2.x so perhaps flashing the new ROM will break the chains.

Soooo... I was reading some of the ICS threads and getting really curious about installing. Saw a post by someone mentioning they're on baseband 0.95.00.1118r. Went to check mine, and I'm on 0.95.00.1017_2r . Checked the Verizon site and OTA 2.01.605.11 provides 0.95.00.1118r . Did some more digging to figure out how I got left behind using the official OTA and came upon this post:
Baseband does not update without a re-lock first.
EDIT: found plan of attack via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467329 and will give it a shot this evening.

Off-topic: Any alternatives to using Filefactory or Dev-host to download the RUU? Has anyone done a sniff during the OTAs to see what URL is used to download the RUU? Does VZW restrict what IPs/MACs can download the updates? Or do they use a proprietary protocol? Or are the updates strictly via their CDMA/LTE, without WiFi?

Flashing faux kernel status 7 error

Hi, been trying to flash the faux kernel on my girlfriends amaze. No matter what I do, it comes back with an error. I am s-offed and unlocked and using 4ext. Tried the flash img gui app and that returned an error of missing a file. I have redownloaded over and over, as well as tried different versions of the kernel, all with the same error. This all started because her phone kept rebooting my router and thought it might be tied to the ics wifi problem. Anyone have any ideas? I was able to flash android revolution, but viper would not boot. With revolution, it still reboots my router, but it is still using the htc kernel, so would like to try a different one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: Saw something that was mentioned in a thread while doing another search: a "First time Kernel for Amaze", but the link didn't work. Do I need to do this first or what?
Well, got everything working. What I had to do was flash an insecure kernel, then I could flash other kernels. Unfortunately, the wifi problem is still there. As soon as I turn on wifi on the phone, my router reboots. Haven't been able to find any info on this. Anyone have any ideas on this issue? Currently using latest viper rom with faux kernel 31. Also, anyone recommend maybe a different rom that might fix the issue? Any others with sense 4 and Bluetooth working? Thanks.
New Kernel?
Been trying to flash the faux kernel myself with the status 7 assertion boot image error. What kernel did you flash first? And did you have to reboot and go back into recovery to flash the faux kernel?
Thanks!
