Hey guys! New here, but I have had my maxx(xt912) for a while. I got into rooting and using ROMs about 6 months ago so I'm no expert with this stuff.
Well to the point! I'm currently using a CyanogenMod ROM 10.1.3 and it works great! But I've been wanting to upgrade to a new version. Problem is.. Ever since CM 10.2 came out, every time I flash a new version on anything my WiFi quits functioning correctly.. At first I thought it was a bug. But then CM 11 came out running kitkat so of course I flashed it immediately(with correct gapps) and same problem. WiFi doesn't work right. So I'm like wth right. Not knowing what else to do, I just decided to install a new ROM as a test subject. I installed slimkat 1.8 beta with its gapps and same deal. WiFi turns on, may or may not connect and when it does it doesn't take long to disconnect then just go into a cycle of connecting and disconnecting killing battery. In my current location with no WiFi my phone is rendered useless.. After googling around I read that there should be a "nvs_map.bin" file in my PDS/WiFi/ folder. Well there isn't. So I'm thinking that's my problem with the WiFi not functioning right.
What do you guys think? Thanks for any help

I've been having the same problem since the beginning but nobody has really been able to figure out what's wrong. I turn on WiFi and then after a couple seconds I see an error that says "Unable to scan for networks.", and then WiFi shuts down.
^Same problem here. Wifi not working.
If you guys won't tell us what version you are using and if you got the batterie fix installed etc, then we won't be able to help you. So be more specific so we can help.

I installed this version of android, but also get the message:
Unable to search for networks
If you use the batterie fix you need to install the zimage AND the module. Some people (including me ) seem to forget that.
Tried it already, but still doesn't work.
"Unable to scan for networks."
well..
well what i ment was that my WIFI wont work... i got the latest version of this tread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627997 build on 1 July-2010..with launcher pro.
This is my error that says "Unable to scan for networks.", and then WiFi shuts down...

Same here been have this problem from ever since i've try android, rhod 210 cant get wifi to work for the life of me.
Someone please halp.
I dont think there is a way to get wifi and battery working at the same time in GSM phones...but I could be wrong, can someone confirm?
For what its worth, I had the same problem with wifi not working. But I didn't have my sim card in yet. not having the sim card was my problem. if that's your problem you might get connected to wifi after trying my option which made everything work smoothly.
Anyone having any luck yet with this?

the newest rootfs fixes this.
i got the new build 16/6
well i got the new build 16/6 and still no WIFI working... do i have to update before i run the xandroid?
New user here, I'm also having the exact same issue.
Phone: HTC TIlt 2 (gsm)
windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
CE OS 5.2.21849(Build: 21849.5.0.63)
CPU: Qualcomm 7201A
Rom Version: 1.59.502.3(67150)WWE
Radio Version: 4.48.25.20
-every time wifi is enabled it displays the scanning icon for a few seconds and than pops up a message saying unable to scan for networks. The message will repeat two or three more times and than wifi shuts off.​
I've tried the all of the 6/16 builds (2.0.1 Eclair, 2.1 AOSP, Sense etc.) as well as the 6/06 and several of the older builds Even the 3/01 builds when wifi was first working. In fact I also tried adding the device's MAC to the startup.txt with those builds, and the current ones. I've tried battery fix free builds, so I dont think that is the issue.
I ran both a .cab install with the Project Android launcher, and the manual install booting with haret.exe.
I updated to the latest rootfs, zimage, and initrd. And I deleted my data.img after every update
I'm still using the stock rom and radio. Although I have seen other users with the same specs who have working wifi. I'd like to avoid flashing a new rom and radio to the phone if possible, but I suppose it will be my next step if i can't find any other fix.
Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? Did i miss something stupid?
Hello people, I have a rather peculiar issue with my SII
I have had this issue for some time now and really doesnt bother me that much, its just annoying. And its just now that I have bothered writing a post about it.
If Ive run out of battery, I plug my phone into the charger, turn it on while its charging, I get no service, not prompted to input PIN and get the Uknown IMEI\baseband version. But if I let it charge a couple of minutes, unplug the charger and turn it on, everything works fine. Whats going on here?
I think this problem occured after installing one of bmarko's MIUI roms. I have since full wiped and restored stock rom. Upgraded two new official samsung roms as they have been released, currently running XWKI8 unrooted completely stock and the issue still persist.
I have searched around and there are similar cases out there but not really any clear solutions. Theres even a post over at cyanogenmods forum site, but no replies.
As said earlier its not really a big issue for me, not expecting a immediate solution but I would really like to understand the problem if someone has the information since I dont have the technical competence to understand it myself. I obviously havent corrupted or lost anything in my efs folder since its working without the charger, or? Could there be remains of a bug from another rom still in the system causing this?
Any replies would be appreciated, thanks.
Same Problem
Hey FlipTrick,
I got exactly the same problem. Dont remember how it happened exactly, but do remember I didn't do anything exotic. Can't display my IMEI, unknown baseband version and no prompt for my PIN.
I Tried several things:
- Reflashed the advised codeworx kernel using odin.
- ReInstalled CM 7.1 and tried nightly version.
- Reflashed different RADIO ROMS from XDA (goo.gl/TjoaM)
Nothing worked. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Or know what I could try next?
Greetings,
Xianduras
I had this problem once when I used a jig to reset the flash counter. Given the modem (and the IMEI) wasn't showing up in the phone details, I reflashed the modem which fixed it.
Occasionally after a reboot my modem/IMEI details take around 20-30 seconds to appear, but they've never not turned up/left me without service apart from that one occasion.
problem gone?!
Problem seems to be gone, noticed it after flashing Hydrog3n rom. Cant say if thats the solution though, havent tested it for awhile and i've flashed alot of roms
Hi
I have tried many ICS roms and they seem to have wireless problems.
at times it takes time for them to connect or at times they are not able to connect. sometime there is no error message but at times i get authentication error (btw authentication credentials are correct). Is something wrong with ICS. Si anyone else have these problems. Is there any fix for it. i have tried many ics roms with different combination of kernels, mostly its the same issue.
i always have to revert back to GB rom and wireless is fine.connects instantly
any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Hi,
Same here. But I can't decide if it is because of juice defender or ICS. In GB worked ok even with Juice defender.

I've had the same problem. Tried many different ICS roms over the last 2 weeks or so.
The last one I tried - HyDrOG3N-ICS was horrible...
Wireless would not connect at all, even though I was standing right next to the router.
After reading through the forums etc I decided to start from scratch.
I reloaded stock Samsung rom with odin, hard reset the phone, formatted my external sdcard and deleted everything on the int sdcard.
I then loaded latest siyah GB kernel.
After this, I install HyDrOG3N-ICS 23.03
Installed GApps
Rebooted and waited 20 minutes (read it somewhere on the forums)
Rebooted and changed to SiyahKernel v3.0beta6 kernel
And finally installed DXLP7 modem.
I then reloaded all my apps from Market (Not apps restored from backups)
After all this, everything seems to work very well... Wireless is connected and working well.
I do have a problem with mobile data disconnecting every now and then, but it returns after a minute or so - might even be a problem with my provider.
I dont know which one of these steps was actually required - but this sorted it out for me.
It's almost like I had 'leftover' bits and pieces of all the different roms I tried... If it makes sense?
I dont know enough to confirm if this was the case - perhaps its not possible.
Perhaps it was just a happy shot that it all worked for me.
If you have a couple of hours spare - give it a bash...
Cheers

i have read many ppl have some issues with wireless on ICS. i was thinking about doing a factory reset , wipe both my internal and external storage.. but seems like quite a big job getting everything back..oh wellif i am really tempted i will go ahead and do it..but will wait for a while for more ICS build to come out.could be a bug in the official roms itself
Hi guys. It is my first time to run cyanogenmod on my phone. I have the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 2 4G and I tried to install the CM 11 of jfbs. I did all the backups and I wiped the data and cache and installed the ROM and Gapps. But I rebooted my device and the Cyanogenmod logo appeared with the spinning arrow and it didn't want to stop spinning (or loading if you want). My phone was stuck on logo and the spinning arrow. I forced the phone to turn off and when I rebooted it I worked but after a little time it went back to the logo and the spinning arrow. I re-installed the ROM and Gapps but like before, the logo and the spinning arrow still there until now and it won't even stop and lead me to the lock screen. PLEASE can somebody tell me if it won't work or what is wrong whit it or if it is matter of time, how long should i wait? PLEASE I need to know what is going on and what to do. :crying:

(as a dev for this phone)
If you could PM me with more details that would be helpful. When i hear that it continues after a reboot(not the first person to have said that) i think its that you are not waiting enough time. That may or may not be the case. I would give it a good 5 min. I have never timed mine but it does seem to me that prior android versions took about 2-3min maybe and for w.e. reason android 4.4(cm-11.0) takes a few more min. Anything over >=10min though id say is too much. In these cases the only things that can really help are logs. Logs are the only way you can show a dev what you are experiencing.
(as a xda member)
Also i would use the device thread not the general android thread, read through the rom thread of the rom you are tryng to install, and a last and final note, I would recommend that anyone that is new to install older more mature roms first. These roms will yield the best experience in most cases. Then once you are familiar you can experiment with other roms/mods etc etc.

Thank you @cars1189 for your answer. I used the device thread to do it but the problem is, I let it spinning for more than 5 hours. I have flashed many roms in my phone since i had it (more than 10 times or more) and i know that it does not take more than 10 mins max to install. But don't worry after that i went back and restored my previous CM 9 rom and right now i'm on the CM 11 build of 1-29-14 of your CM mass thread. It works fine, not at 100% but it doesn't drain my battery like your CM 10.2 build of 1-11-14 and it is almost stable. I will try tonight to use your ADC kernel with the jfbs CM 11 rom that first didn't work for me because I saw in your thread that this kernel may help it to load and install without the spinning issue. So i will give it a shoot. But anyways thanks for your answer and it means a lot to me really. :good:
GOOD
@cars1189 , I'm actually running the 6-18-14 build of CM11 and as far as it goes, i'm not encountering any major issue at the moment. The theme engine is working fine for me and battery life is great for my usage. I use this build as a daily driver, and it does a great job. Calls, texts, data, wifi, Bluetooth and GPS are all working. I had issues before with the amount of RAM available, but now that it has 375MB of RAM, it is more snappy. Just :good: Thank you for your work on our to make our phone still valuable today!! THANKS MAN!!!!!!
So, i have an used xt910 with Carbonrom KK 4.4.4, Safestrap v3.72 and Stock ROM. I have been having problems with the network since two weeks ago. Sometimes it just runs out of network out of the blue (Vodafone), even though my roommate still gets full signal. Sometimes by just restarting it the network would come back. Last saturday i rebooted it but then it would not turn on anymore, entering in a very annoying boot loop. And when i could boot into Recovery, a little surprise: The touchscreen would not work. First i thought it might be a hardware problem, tried dissasembling it and everything but nothing worked. But then out of the blue, around three hours later it started working properly again. Ok so i thought it could be some kind of bug with the rom so i installed CM 11 (the nightly version from the 22.11.). But it was running slowly, compared to Carbonrom. And i did not want to go back to carbon so i installed the Dirty Unicorns rom that i found here. And then today when i started it i saw that i was out of network signal again! So i tried rebooting it but it started with that stupid boot loop. Right now it is working okay, but it is really annoying to always go through this. So i do not think it was a problem with carbonrom (i am newbie with it). Has anyone ever encountered this problem bzw how did you manage to fix it?
Thanks a lot in advance!
(sorry for my english xD)
