Help! I am currently running GeeWiz 2.6 but after 1-2 reboots my option, home and search button all stop working.
My back button still works and it hasn't been just in GeeWiz that I have experienced this issue, I have had this problem in both TSM and Superclean (which are basically the same but still).
This is weird but if anyone knows help!
Update 02/22/12 : The problem has gotten worse now all my buttons except for the back button don't work on 2.3 gingerbread stock that is flashed in Odin! I will flash 2.1 and 2.2 to see if anything works.
I had this same issue when I first bought my Fascinate. Is your phone in airplane mode? If it is, try disabling it and restarting. That should fix your problem.
I always have my phone in airplane mode seeing as it isn't even activated with verizon, I use alot of Voip so I shut of 3G to save some battery. It seems to have fixed my issue on stock, im going to ty this out with CM9 and see if it works but so far thanks dude!
No problem. As long as you remember to switch off Airplane mode before, or shortly after, rebooting, you should be okay. It's related to the Activation Screen, so this problem should go away entirely if/when you activate your phone.

For the 2nd time w/ axura i have lost data connection. I flashed this rom on friday and lost my connection on saturday, reflashed saturday then lost again on today. I've reflashed for the last time. I tried turning on/off airplane mode, changing network modes, rebooting. Nothing seems to work except reflashing. I really hate this because I love this rom, but if happens again I'm going to have to try a different another rom. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening? Has anyone else had this problem?
yes this has happen to me twice as well. Do you happen to have the wifi calling app installed?
I don't think so. Is that something that I would have to add. I didn't add anything extra or change the kernel. Are you only getting a day out of it before you lose the data? I can connect to wifi when I want.
Here is what happen to me. I was using Eugene's unofficial Odin froyo and everything was well except for the browser was laggy all the time. I decided to flash master's rom because it supported wifi calling and at home with wifi everything worked well, but when i left my house yesterday for work I could not get data or voice. The bars and the 3g icon were there but did not work. I flashed the rom again on the way to work and everything was good. Today we left to do some stuff and the same thing happen, I tried to go to into flight mode but it would not go back normal. In addition I installed the wifi calling app that lets you make calls over wifi and there is an option for preffered connection method, I had it set to wifi only instead of wifi and 3g. I changed that option and from there everything was working as it should. I also noticed that its set to Gsm instead of auto Gsm/wcdma and it wont let me change it. I don't know if that has to do with anything. So I am back at home right now and i don't get any service so i cant test to see if it has anything to do with wifi to 3g transfer.
I am really bummed because i like this rom alot, it has all the bells and whistles and its great on battery.
If this continues I think I am gonna odin back to stock then start over. It might also have something to do with my titanium back up.
Maybe it's a Georgia thing. lol. When I lose it the task bar only shows the bars, nothing else ( no 3g or edge). I'm with you though this is a great rom. If it happens again I may go back to stock and wait for the official froyo. Not really sure what else to do.
Is it okay to install the JI2 or JI6 modems on a Froyo ROM? If so, you could give it a try. Fortunately, people have created flashable .zip's for both.
This happened to me also. I lost my data and voice connection. Checked and saw that airplane mode was on and no matter how much I unchecked it, it still stayed on airplane mode. I reboot my phone, and reboot and reboot the **** out of it and now its been working just fine for more than a day now.
I don't know if it is ok to install those on a rom. My knowledge on that kind of stuff is very limited to say the least. This is my first rom. If anyone knows about this, your help would be greatly appreciated.

JI2 and JI6 are 2.2 capable.
http://www.teamwhiskey.com/home/downloads
Check the download section. Also I can't confirm but from what I remember the JI2 + JI6 both have the bug where switching radio modes (edge / 3g) will force you to do the flight mode reset.
I also had this issue because it always happens when I stream music while driving.
About not being able to get out of airplane mode. I don't know if it was just because I was tired, but every time I used the reboot feature instead of powering down, it would never get out of airplane mode. So, when I looked carefully, reboot, airplane mode, and another option was greyed out while power down wasn't. I found it strange, but whatever. I fully powered down and then turned it on. Airplane was now off.
I was on Axura 2.0.4 and because of this issue, I switched back to Obsidian. It could possibly be the modem, but at the time I didn't check it. Just report it to Master and hopefully the bug can be found.
Since upgrading to the EB01 Froyo leak (debinged/deodexed) I have wifi issues where every 3 or 4 times I attempt to enable it, it will fail, and show "Error" under the Wi-Fi settings (where it ususally says in blue text "Turn on Wi-Fi", "Connecting..." "Connected to <network>", etc). I finally got the log message associated with it, and was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to address this?
From what I gather insmod is the kernel's mechanism for (in this case) loading the wifi driver, so this would be an issue with the kernel? So now what?
E/WifiHW ( 2467): return of insmod (args:firmware_path=/system/etc/wifi/bcm4329_sta.bin nvram_path=/system/etc/wifi/nvram_net.txt dhd_watchdog_ms=10 dhd_poll=1) : ret = -1, Invalid argument
At first I thought a reboot was necessary to get it to attempt to reload the driver, but I've since found clearing level 2 ram in the task manager does the trick. Still a big PIA though.
Thanks for any help.

I had the same problem until I flashed the EC10 kernel, hasn't happened since.

So, if I'm not mistaken I can just install the non-voodoo zip w/ Red CWM directly over EB01 with no wiping/cache clearing, etc, and be up and running with no data or configuration loss? Sounds like a pretty quick and easy way to fix my issue.
I haven't been following the EC10 thread, but I just took a look and looks like the static issue when the screen comes on during a call is fixed as well, the only other issue I've had.
Guess I may have to give it a shot! How long have you been using it?

I've been using it for a couple days and have to say that it combined with SuperClean 2.9 has made my phone super smooth. I haven't found a single glitch so far.
Took the plunge and updated to EC10 last night. I've had only a brief time to play around with it, but so far so good with the wifi. Thanks for the help!
Could just be my mind playing tricks on me, but I could swear in general everything is more responsive as well... Not only loading apps, but when I brought up navigation this morning I've never once seen it lock on and start driving directions this fast.
Nevermind... Same problem still with EC10. Got my hopes up there for a minute.
I got the same problem with SC 2.9.2v and had with any other SC Froyo build. I'm using JuiceDefender so WiFi is turned on/off lot of times (every 15 minutes on schedule or when screen is unlocked). Usually once or twice a day I find that there is an error with WiFi and the only way to fix it is to wait couple of minutes and try turning it on manually or switch to airplane mode on/off.
I also use JuiceDefender w/ Wifi. If it doesn't occur less often with EC10 (too soon to tell still), I'll have to disable the wifi controls in JD so it's toggled on/off far less frequently.
Glad to see I'm not the only one seeing it. I bet the JD users will just notice it more since we are loading the wifi driver all the time.

And thanks for the airplane mode tip- I'll have to try that. I was clearing level 2 ram in task manager to do it. AM would be slightly more convenient.
jt1134's source build EC10 didn't help, still having same problem with WiFi. My log is showing the same thing.
At least the new kernel fixed the static issue. One thing at a time, right? I hope that this means there will be ED01 kernel drop
Actually, maybe April Fool's day is a bad choice...
What radio are you using? EB01?
Yes, I did the full Froyo update to EB01 over the stock 2.1 Verizon eclair, then installed the EC10 specifically for this issue. That's all I've done. Oh, went back into CWM after seeing the problem for a few days to clear the Dalvik cache. That's all I've done to date...
OK so it's not radio related but kernel/rom then. I'm on EA28 radio cause I had problems with missed calls with EB01.
Solutions? Bump?
Sorry for reviving this thread, but I have what I think is the same problem (on EB01).
My wifi always works after a reboot, but then if I turn it off and try and turn it back on, it gives me an error message until I either
A) reboot the phone
or
B) repeatedly turn it on and off again (usually takes 3 or 4 times to work again)
Anyone else having this specific problem or know how to fix it?

I was able to get rid if the problem by using Auto Killer Memory Optimizer. It turned out to be a memory issue. Use one of the preset profiles, like aggressive, and see how you do. I was having the problem several times a day and it never came back.
Or, upgrade to PWGB, which takes care if the problem too and doesn't require messing with memory mgmt settings...
Hi! I had Das Bamf 1.8 installed with the latest Froyo CDMA/LTE combo radio.
I was downloading an update to Google+ when all of a sudden the screen froze. I decided to pull the battery out and restart; surprisingly, 4G hasn't worked since then.
I went into the network settings to find one change that I've never seen before (at least I think): "Ciphering ON". I repeatedly tried to press Toggle Ciphering but it refused to go off.
With this, I thought that reinstallling the radio combo will somehow fix it; it didn't. I then decided to install the new Ginger radio (MR2.5) along with Bamf GingerREMIX 2.1; this didn't solve the problem as well.
Am I screwed in this case? Could it possibly be that the service is down temporarily in my area? I've googled around but there doesn't seem to be much documentation regarding to Ciphering...
Thanks!
Hey all!
Just started this thread to explain something about SOD and phone SHUT DOWNS by itself.
I was NEVER BEFORE have these problems, like SOD or SHUT DOWN phone by itself, till now. I sure that it was related to one WIFI program, what I downloaded yesterday(Unlock With Wifi). Today I activated the app and I have phone SHUT DOWN by itself, like 3 times in hour. If I disabled the app, I solved the problem(for now I already UNINSTALLED that app).
Now I sure, that our SOD and S.DOWN problem not hardware problem, but SOFTWARE related problem.
I want to say you all, who have SOD or S.D...., look what app you have installed(what can use wifi) or in phone settings and try several times to configure your wifi(one of most: dont but your wifi to sleep, when screen is OFF), untill you solve you problem.
If you too know some examples, from you experience, then share with us here!
THX for reading!
Hope it will HELP someone.
CHEERS!
I'll try if turning off wifi will help. It should if this is wifi related problem.

Hey!
Like I sayed, just try different things with WIFI settings. I think turning OFF wifi, will solve the problem, until you turning it back(when you have the problems). We will see, dose it solve the problem, if you turn OFF WIFI.
CHEERS!
You got the nail on spot. I was also in the same impression with SOD. Till now I'm not able to Figure out the app which cause this. But yes this is software issue rather than hardware. I also read else where that the SOD cause because of the lower voltage supplied to processor during sleep with which its not able to get itself up from sleep. Not sure...
I have a app that turns the wifi off when I lock the screen (dont remember which one of my apps!) so I havent experience it for awhile.
Sleep as an droid has a feature that shuts down the sleep tracker at a certain procentage (I chose 20%), instead of shutting the sleep tracker down, it shuts down the whole phone. Both of the times that i got SOD my phone had 20% left of its battery, so it was pretty obvious what caused it.
Sleep bot tracker is a great app if you forget to shut down your wi-fi before going to bed. Make it a habit to track your sleeping time, in the same time ull make it a habit to turn you wifi off. It has a built in function that shuts off the wifi when u start tracking your sleeping time. This app does not bring you and SOD.
What, but the general advise to sod had always been to check wifi always on...

I noticed that this problem is only for those who are using the older firmwares including XXKPH or the ROMs whose base are 2.3.4 KPH.
Haven't encountered this problem in the Samsung July 2011 release of 2.3.3 (KPN). But I guess, this is a good post for those who are still experiencing this.
For now, I'm just happy with KPN (that's why I'm not as active before here in the forums).
Before I flashed to 2.3.4 KPH, my Wifi worked flawlessly.
Now my Wifi reception is extremely limited (I have to be in direct line of sight to the router within 2 meters to be able to get a stable connection)
and
I get those dreaded SoDs (sleep of deaths).
My question:
Is it possible to flash only the modem file of 2.3.3 to try whether that works?
If yes, will my current system be wiped if I only flash the modem file?

If you don't use the video chat in Google Talk, then why not just flash 2.3.3 KPN?
The only new feature in 2.3.4 is the video chat in Google talk. Most bug fixes are now in the July 2011 release of 2.3.3 KPN.
Yes, I'm contemplating to do that.
But as I've spent a bit over a weeks time to set my system up, I would like to know if it's possible to just flash the modem without touching the already working system.
edit: I see KPN is a single file flash, so I won't be able to flash only the modem. Ok, backup and downgrade it is.
I've only experienced SOD once... But I always have wifi off. Just on when I'm going to use it. Afterwards I turn it off and good bye SOD issue

Hey!
Dont know exactly, but I think that you can restore your system settings and other system things, with TITANIUM BACKUP. Backup the ALL SYSTEM DATA in batch menu. Go to TITANIUM BACKUP>Menu>batch. Pick: backup all system data and RUN THE BATCH. After that, flash you ROM(what ever you want) and try to restore all system settings from TITANIUM B.. Ofcourse, what ever happens, I suggesting you do NANDROID BACKUP from CWM recovery, before you start anything. If nothing works(or **** happens), you can RESTORE ALL FROM NANDROID BACKUP.
CHEERS!
Update: I flashed 2.3.3 KPN and did a factory reset.
The SOD problems are gone now,
but
the bad wifi reception still remains. (Connection to router only works within an extremely close range)
If I cannot find a fix for this problem I might try out a froyo firmware.
Did anybody have a similar problem? Would really appreciate some hints.

Hey!
I think its not ROM-s problem. Try look your Router settings and phone settings. I think something is not right in PHONE or ROUTER settings. Not seen this kinde of problem YET, with ANY ROM. Try to look.
One question: dose you not DROP you phone or similar? I seen little problems can happen, even nothing SERIOUS was done(like speaker, wifi and other HARDWARE problems).

Froyo will not help i think. I had all the mentioned problems in Froyo aswell. That's why i flashed to KPH and now KPN for eventually.
From my 3 days experience with Froyo i never experienced SOD.
I don have any sod problems.
BUT,sometimes my phone vibrates 3 times n then goes to Samsung bootlogo,den homescreen comes up n mediascanner starts.. (I ges this is called soft resetting)
Any solutions to get rid of this???
M in stock froyo rom..
Any help ll b appreciated...

Hi! I updated my S4 to the latest firmware. Now m having issue in wifi. It stops downloading apps and speed is slow also. It gets disconnect and connect from wifi its self. No matter how near you are to you wifi source. Any suggestions that what might be the problem?
I assume you did not have a problem on MDK.
I had a similar problem after flashing an ME7 ROM and then back to MDK (can't say I really checked while on the ME7 ROM). I finally removed anything that might be trying to control WiFi (Battery Guru, Llama, etc.) and also turned off Power Save mode. The problem has stayed gone ever since. I haven't had the time to go back and re-enable each of those in sequence to track down exactly which was the problem.
