Phone switching to Airplane mode, to and fro. Is it a Bug? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hello Guys,
Recently i upgraded my phone CM10 with great help from mihahn and PREDATOR95.. But now i am facing a very peculiar problem.Everything was running smooth, but today my phone acted rather strange. It switches to Flight mode and then turning off Flight Mode, to and fro.. It is doing all by itself. So basically i am left without a signal on my cellphone. Is it a bug? Please help
I would appreciate if anyone can guide me in the right way
Thanks

It's a bug, but i guess only on your device. I've never heard of someone others with the same problem.
Try flashing another custom ROM or flash Stock Firmware, that would fix the prob..
To install new updates just install the same way you have flashed your current update. If you don't wanna lose your data then don't do factory reset, just wipe cache and dalvik

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...

[Q] MIUI bootloop!

I can't take it anymore! Almost every week, I have a marathon of FCs and then when I try to reboot my phone I get a loop. The only way I can fix it is by wiping everything. I don't mind doing that every so often, but every week is just too often. It's so annoying! Does anyone know how to almost permanently fix this!?
I am using MIUI rom and I have a Samsung Galaxy Vibrant. I just updated to 1.11.25 through recovery, but still has a bootloop.
Thank you for your time!
(EDIT: Well I'm going to wipe everything again, because I want to use my phone, hahaha but still, I would love any feedback to help me rarely have to wipe my data again! Thank you!)
are you flashing manually?

Hmmm... You've tried my guide right?
Manually flashing mentions "mounts and storage' its important, follow all op's but I believe Format storage may be your issue.

[Q] Screen Flickering after software update.

My device is a local re-branded and enhanced Xolo a500s/it's like a karbon a5 a think. After successfully updated my device via OTA and after my device rebooted. My screen started to flicker randomly. My phone is not rooted and im still using the official stock rom. I found a temporarily solution by doing a Factory Reset, the flickering would be gone but it will come back after my phone screen goes off and on. Anyway to fix this?
I suspect that the new lockscreen bloatware system app that comes with the update causes this, but hey I only suspect it and i'm new to the android community. I can't disable it(googled already, and the only way to freeze/remove it is to root.) I can't root my device for something like a hunch. I'm waiting for a software update that would fix my device's touchscreen collide bug.
Appreciate all of your thoughts.
Try to start your phone in Safe Mode or try to start in Recovery (if your phone has available) and do a Factory Reset

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it. I was able to disable the bloatware new systapp lock the came with it and it didn't solve the problem. I will try your method. Again thank you very much. I will check in later to post the result, hopefully this fixes it all
*edit
I successfully managed to boot in safe mode, the flickering has stopped but it return right after the screen goes back from sleep. Then I do a factory reset then after that the phone starts up and the result is still the same.
I will try the recovery mode though.
*edit
okay, i've managed to enter recovery menu. the one where you use the volume buttons to move. Is it really safe to select Wipe Data/Factory Reset there? Is that what you're prompting me to do in your post?

The results are still the same... your method do work yes. The flickering is gone after rebooting but as soon as you know press the power button and screen goes off then press the power button again and the screen turns on again from standby, the flickering returns.
Before doing some OTA updates my device is like v7 or v8 and now it's v9.1
and I didn't have any screen flickering problems before updating to v9.1 so I can safely assure that it's not in the hardware. It really just happened right after updating my device.
Another question, will installing a custom rom fix this software bug? But I really don't want to install those yet at the moment.
Any, Thank you very much. I really really really really appreciate it all man. I'm really at loss now. This is my first android phone that's why.

First of all try factory data reset.Secondly if it doesn't work try a custom rom(if you really want to)and check if the bug has gone.If it doesn't then there is something fault with your device

So the only is custom rom/original stock rom before update(which is impossible because I haven't backed up one before updating)
is the only solution eh.
The reason that I held back from installing a custom rom is because I'm waiting for the touchscreen bug fix for my device iva OTA. Will I still able to get it after installing a custom rom?
Again many thanks. Is there a way to give you a thanks on every posts?

If there is a way to restore back to your stock version or find a way to get back to stock version then yes .
If you had a Sony Device then you could restore it with SEUS.Now with a Xolo I really dont know.Ask to the specific device forum

Thanks a lot man. I've flashed a stock rom and my device got fixed from screen flickering. Really looks like a firmware bug. So I've just downgraded.
Again thanks a million

[Q] Kyocera Brigadier camera problem

Hi all, have another two Kyocera brigadier come to me with camera problem. One is rooted and another one is unrooted.
But they have the same error when using camera "unable to launch camera application". Tried google camera and its said "cannot connect to camera"
All phones have this problem suddenly.
Anyone have the same problems? All I can think is reflash the firmware but there's no oem rom for this handheld.
Thanks
Wipe cache and see, if doesn't work then perform a wipe data
Did that already. But the problem still persists.
