Hi all.
I'm running xboxexpert's 4.2.1 ROM with the UI MOD and clockworkmod recoverty 6.0.3.2. I keep wifi off generally for battery unless I need it. One day turning it on it gets stuck with the "Turning wi-fi on..." text but nothing happening.
I had wifi fixer installed to see logging at one point and it's help pointed to a possible know issue where this happens and said flashing is the only fix. OK fine I'll flash. Nope, same thing.
I've tried some of the other ROMS in the hisense forum but they've all failed. aosp's throw a warning that there's no file_contexts**, it fails to umount cache. Once it gets passed symlinking and metadata the applyparsedperms throws an error: operation not supported so the install is aborted. Do I need to load a different/newer recovery mod for these?
I've also tried the stock ROM and have the same issue w/wifi getting stuck when turning on.
Every time before I flash I'm formatting everything clockwork lets me: cache, data, system, modem, sdcard, dalvik. Each time I get it to boot, wifi is stuck.
I'm a bit of an android noob so speak in small sentences please.
Thanks.

Tried to post there. Site wouldn't let me due to low post count.
I also haven't found a thread that has helped me yet so I figured start one so I could get my hand held through fixing this or figuring out my wifi is busted at this point.

My tablet had a similar problem and I gave up on it, I even sent it in for warranty worked for a couple of months then it went dead... well not exactly, it works perfectly at my work's wifi, other than that it's gone. Heck I even replaced the wifi antenna and not even with the hot spot underneath it it connects to it. That was almost a year and a half ago, since then it just sits there waiting to be thrown out the window...

I just flashed to the newest G Harmony and GAPPS, but now my WiFi only shows "error" I did get an error as follows when installing in CWM:
E: Can't symlink /system/bin/sh
E:Failure ar line 3:
symlink ash SYSTEM:bin/sh
Installation aborted.
But when I rebooted every thing was more than fine, it was quick and smooooooth. But my wifi won't come on, and it keeps telling me it is safe to remove my SD Card. Do I need to flash a kernel, am I missing a thread somewhere? I've flashed my D1 enough times it screams when I try to enter recovery, and never had an error like this.
Thanks in advance,
Jason
I would try any number of kernals out there starting with some from pershoot or clemsym (sp). I always wipe delvik cache before installing a kernal, hope it helps

Thanks, the 3rd /system format did it, I think. Still having problems with a lockup when turning on USB storage (only when the external SD card is installed, though), but that's another thread.
Thanks for the help, it's nice to see support.
Hi, I'm so happy to find this forum. I've been an Android fan since I bought my G1 when it first came out. I bought my G2 the day it launched. So of course when shopping for a tablet, I had to buy Android. CompUSA sold out of G Tablets in Houston so I drove to Dallas to buy mine and I got the next to last one. I'm not a developer, I write IT documentation, so I don't normally reinstall OS stuff. But this tablet was too great a deal to pass up. I knew I'd have to get out of my comfort zone a little bit and do some installs, so I'm really thankful for this forum.
I followed the directions on the sticky thread Install ClockworkMod, a ROM, Flash Player, and the Market Fix. I can't post on that thread because I'm a noob, so I'm posting my question here.
Part One Install ClockworkMod v08 went just fine.
Part Two Install a ROM (I installed what I believe to be the latest build of Vegan) went just fine.
Part Three Install Flash and fix Android Market is where I ran into trouble. When I was installing Part One and Part Two today, I had my G2 tethering Wifi to the G Tablet. When I got to Part Three, I was on my home Wifi. Or trying to be.
For some reason, the G Tablet will not stay connected to my home Wifi now. The wireless will look for available networks, see my neighbors network, see my network, connect to my network and then immediately disconnect.
How do I get the G Tablet to stay on my home Wifi?
During the time it has taken to type this email on my laptop, a new issue has developed with the G Tablet. It won't let me "unlock" it. Just like my phone has a slider unlock bar after being "asleep". Except, when I try to touch and drag the slider bar to unlock mode, it will only slide about an inch.
I will appreciate any help or advice you can provide.
Have you tried rebooting it. It can solve some problems. Along with using "Fix Permissions" in Clockwork Recovery, and in Rom Manager.
Are you talking about the Vegan Gingerbread ROM? If so, I had the same problem. I could connect to my phone's wifi but not my home wifi. Kept doing the same loop. scanning, connecting, disconnected (about 3 times) then it would disable the tablet from connecting itself to my home wifi.
I reinstalled Vegan 5.1 and 5.1.1 Camera, wifi, and my beloved SlingPlayer Mobile all work again.

Thanks for your reply, jasonwuzthere. I have rebooted it. I'm certainly willing to try "fix permissions" in Clockwork Recovery. Can you tell me the steps?

Wait, that might be it. I installed vegan 5.1 but not vegan 5.1.1
I was going to do that one after I finished the unlock for market. I forgot all about 5.1.1 till you mentioned it. Thanks, superchaos!

I installed the 5.1.1 update and the wifi works!
I finished the step 3 market update and I have what appears to be full market but I cannot find WordPress and Evernote.

i've just flashed the openOptimus build 2.202.1 and installed gtalk through open script. when i tried to open it an error message came " the application talk has stopped unexpectedly."
everytime i try to access it the same error message is coming.
what could be the problem?
please reply asap
Gotta remember openoptimus 2 is still on its first release, bring this to the attention of caiox, see if this is a known issue or just a fluke. Maybe, factory reset.

yes i did factory reset but no luck. Another problem i am facing is the random reboots. phone hangs and then it restarts.
found another bug. when i turn off the screen wifi gets disconnected. i've also set the sleep policy to "never" but still it gets disconnected.
i cant post this in dev section as my post count is less.
ahh messenger notifications are also no working. i've to turn on the sreen and then notifications come. this happens both on wifi and data.
anyways i am going back to andy's rom. it was far stable one.

**** eh, well answer some questions like mad in the general section. Or even PM the guy, I'm sure he wouldn't mind bro
@OP: I suggest
- wipe /data
- wipe /cache
- wipe dalvik-cache
- format system
- reinstall from scratch and do NOT restore any of the apps/data junk you had via TB or any other application
After that, you will not have a FUBARed phone any more.
I have same problem.
I already restored via openscript, its said successfull, but when I open, its said the application talk has stopped unexpectedly..
When I installed as usual, its said: Application Not Installed.
I have a Transformer Prime and I decided to flash CM9. I installed CWM via Rom Manager. This was my first time flashing with my prime but I have flashed many times with my droid 1 so I'm not completely new to this. Wiped data, flashed CM9 and then flashed google apps on top of that. This created a bootloop for whatever reason which I fixed using adb. (First time ever using adb). CM9 booted up fine but when it goes to ask for my account info during first bootup, the wifi wont turn on. It says "Turning wifi on" but never does anything. Let it sit for half an hour and nothing. Decided to skip that thinking it might work when everything is booted up. Suffice to say, doesn't work. Says MAC address unavailable. Bluetooth wont turn on either. Can't browse files at all due to no file manager app. Rom manager is installed but says CWM is no longer installed. Can boot into fastboot only but not CWM. Can't reinstall CM9 or stock ROM due to no CWM. Anyone know how I can fix this? I would just like to get the wifi on or get back to stock if that is necessary. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Correction, am now able to enter CWM, going to wipe and reflash.
EDIT2: Solved the issue. Figures, after 5 hours of trying to figure it out and then posting, I fix the issue in 10 minutes. Sorry for the post.
Glad you made it.
Thank you for getting through this either alone or through search. Also, thank you for sharing how you solved it. Can i also thank you again for editing the title of the thread to include a [SOLVED] tag?
Shortly after Team DRH's last update for their ICS 1.2 I installed it no problem and it ran for a few weeks. Then I left the tablet alone for a week or so and when I turn it on now the wifi is not working, it just says "turning on wifi" but never actually does. I've followed the reflash instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23147934&postcount=4 and I can re-install ICS endlessly. But even after following those instructions, and even after RayWaldos NVFlash for dummies, it still always says "turning on wifi" but doesn't.
When, during the above flashing, I let the stock tapntap boot, wifi works no problem. It's only when i install a ROM that it stops working. I even tried installing Gtabcombover and it gave me the same "turning on wifi" problem.
I did try searrching the forums, but I see no mention of this anywhere.
Thanks.
If I can be more to the point: does anyone know of a way to completely reflash stock everything? I thought I was doing that, but obviously not enough.
Or do I need to crack open my case and push that Dirty Little reset button?

I was able to use the DHR NUFLASH.. It worked real well for me.. download the right file (bootloader 1.1 or 1.2) to your pc, for your g-tab.hook up your USB cable Turn on your tab wile holding your volume (-) key , the logo will come on and then go black. Then go to the nuflash- win file, you downloaded to your pc and run.. The instructions are on the DHR site are vary good I read them a few times before I tried. Its worked great for me.. I'm a noob. Lets just say its just about makes the gtab un-brickable...

Well the good news is that after reading your post I went straight to the DRH website and lo and behold they had just posted Beta 1.3 that morning. I redownloaded their Full Stock CWM 5504 NVFLASh file even though I already had it, and the Beta 1.3.
I flashed the stock file and let it boot just like they said but the setup process began a FC loop and would not complete. I simply rebooted and the setup was able to complete. The I installed the Beta 1.3 with no Gapps and it worked like a charm. Wifi was working and everything, except there was no Market. So I did a wipe/FR and installed again this time with Gapps and everything is back, wifi, market, all good. And I have noticed that it all seems to work a ton faster and smoother.
I think I've messed up again. Whenever I try to turn my wifi on, it gets stuck at the "turning on" status and then crashes after a couple of minutes. I have no error messages. It just closes after some time. The last thing I remember I did regarding wifi was to recover a stored password using Wifi Password Recovery App. Then this happened.
My phone is rooted and I have cwm. I've tried basic troubleshooting like power cycling, deleting wpa supplicant file (found in a post somewhere), tried turning wifi on using allsahare play, untweaking internet, but they just didn't work.
I'm ready to flash a stock ROM. But I'm just curious if you have any other suggestions before I do it because I've read some posts saying that reflashing didn't work as well.
Please help XDA Developers!
I guess no one has the solution yet. But I have discovered something, and I hope this would help. I found the file, init.qcom.wifi.sh, using root browser. I executed it and I got a script output stating an error. WI-FI chip ID is not specified. I have attached screenshots so you may as well check them out. Also, I noticed the files under date\misc\wifi are all 0.00 B which i think means they are empty. Please help experts.

Try reverting back to stock temporarely with Odin, this happens in my Note 3 and used to do the same in my S2, but only with the proximity sensor. The idea is the same, replace all settings to stock and flash whatever you want after (boot the stock though and test wifi just in case).
Why this works i have no idea, but it saved my arse loads of times. I can guess some internal devices might have flags configured which could be chip based rather then ROM/emmc related, but that is only my supposition.
