I'm looking to add a WiFi profile automatically to a device after a factory reset, without having to require input from the user going through the initial setup steps. Is there a way to do this via recovery? I've done a bit of Googling and searching the threads, but I appear to either not know the correct syntax, or I'm crazy in considering this... TIA!

Hi!
Device: HTC flyer
My market will stopped working, it has been a week now - I wrote all about clear cache etc. but does not work - so last solution seems to be a factory data reset.
But under the factory data reset - the screen says: "rebooting" they flyer freezes and I can't do anything. After several times trying to turn the device off; it finally says program not responding and I can close the factory reset down. But that does not solve my problem. It must be doing something under the initial rebooting as eg. my notes in "notes" are gone.
The purpose for buying the device was for downloading books and use some of the programmes from market etc. but can't download anything. Updates cannot be downloaded neither.
It stats to download but it's downloading while saying " download unsuccessfull"
Hope someone can help
Try manually going into the bootloader. Hold down and power. Then reset from there
make sure to post questions in General as this is very blatantly the wrong subforum
try the reset as described above you will need to disable fast boot though first...
Hello all,
I'm on three uk and updated to 2.3.5 via Kies yesterday. All fine, a definite improvement to 2.3.4.
But there is a problem, when i go to portable hotspot settings the Network SSID has been reset as 'AndroidAP' and the password is something random.
I can change it, but it doesn't stick. Sometimes it will persist for that 'session' but after i close and exit the hotspot configuration it will get reset back to AndroidAP.
I've noticed a few other people have this problem, it seems to be caused by the permissions getting messed up on the /data/misc/wifi/softap.conf file (as seen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301996).
what i want to know, is there *any* way i can reset the permissions on this file or fix this problem without performing a factory reset or by rooting my phone? the feature still works, but it's really, really, annoying as i use it quite a lot.
is there any way i access this file via the sdk or in debug mode without rooting my phone?
please help!
I have recently purchased a Wikipad 7 tablet and have been using it for a few weeks. I rooted the tablet using KingoRoot and the root was successful. Using a app included with the root called Superuser I deleted some system files I considered safe to do so in order to speed up the tablet and free up some space and the tablet worked fine after doing so. A couple of days later, I decided to perform a factory reset in order to get rid of multiple large files I had downloaded but could not have the effort to find. The reset went as normal until I tried connecting to wifi in the setup wizard. A screen showing 'Connecting to wifi' appears for some time before the message 'Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped.' appears and I'm taken back the first screen where I have to choose my language. I have tried multiple times to connect to wifi successfully but to no avail. I have tried things such as turning off the router in order to bypass the process but the screen that appears after skipping wifi configuration (the one which asks permission to let google access your location) shows the same message after tapping on the left or right arrows located at the bottom to let me proceed through the setup or go back.
I have tried to search the internet for a solution to this problem, but the solutions were unexpectedly complicated for me to get around as I not understand some of the terminology used and the steps to fixing the problem seem to be specifically for one kind of device.
If anybody could have any knowledge on how to solve this problem then help would be greatly appreciated. It would be preferable if the method to fixing this problem would be as simple as possible to perform and understand. If you would like any additional information regarding the tablet in order to help with solving the problem, please to not hesitate to ask as I will provide all I can.
Yet again, any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
Before we get started, I'll list what I've done. I've....
Factory reset the watch, I've reset the watch after it was factory reset. I've disabled and re-enabled Bluetooth on my phone (An HTC One M8) restarted it, re-enabled bluetooth, attempted to connect (Via Android Wear, of course) after everything is reset. I've done this in every imaginable order. I've even tried to connect via phone bluetooth. (not through Android Wear.)
I've also tried to go through all of my apps that might access anything bluetooth related; nothing. I've ALSO ALSO gone through my apps to clear the cache on everything that might be related to it.
I said "Screw it!" and I did a factory reset, which was hard for me to do. Nothing. Same error. Tried all of the above AFTER the factory reset. Nothing.
Then I went back to the beginning and I upgraded my ROM. (Skydragon 6.1 GPe) Nothing.
I did all of the above after re-installing that ROM. Nothing.
I went back to the recovery and wiped the cache/dalvik and just re-installed the ROM. Again, nothing.
Obviously, as we all know, you don't actually type anything in, you just verify the number, so there's no way I could have messed the code up.
Anyway, at this point, I'm out of ideas. If I remember something that I didn't put on here, I'll edit my post.
Anyone have any ideas?

FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING THIS ISSUE: Update your phone's firmware! That's all I had to do to get mine to work.
Can I have a mod close this thread?
Thread closed per OP request.
Hello all,
I recently rooted an old Samsung Stratosphere in an attempt to turn it into a mobile Kali device, and after rooting it using a custom ROM ("root zImage" that I found via googling and a forum post on rootzwiki) and then performing a factory reset, I now have no wifi or BT, and no MAC address. Attempting to connect to my wireless network results in the phone starting wifi, attempting to scan for a few seconds, then returning an error message of "unable to scan" and turning the wireless radio back off. Also, now the phone tries to activate every time I turn it on. I can bypass the activation by enabling soft keys (I googled that also), but how can I disable the auto-activation?
I installed CWM recovery and did a factory reset, no change. I removed the SIM card (I even tried a different one from another one of these phones I had laying around with a broken screen), no change. Why would the MAC address disappear? Isn't the MAC address tied to the actual hardware?
It's a shame that this perfectly good hardware is so difficult to re-purpose to use as something else. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I am willing to learn Android development in order to figure this out, but I'm really not sure where to start, and I expect this will take some time to get to a point where I can develop my own ROMs and apps. I have downloaded the Android Studio; where should I start? Thanks.
