I'd like to thank both of you for your replies. I do believe what you say. I've seen how unpopular some of the actions moderators have taken regarding GPL have become, but I do believe the right actions have been taken.

Some of you may disagree with what I've said. That's fine, but don't voice it here in this thread. Talk to these guys directly via PM. The primary purpose of this OP is to share thoughts on the GPL and to foment debate and, hopefully, the changing of a few minds on the issue. Too many members of this community have failed to understand the GPL, how it shapes this community, and what our obligations are regarding it.

Moderators really shouldn't have to police this thing like they do. Many of us are here because we believe the "open source way" is the better way to develop software than any other method. That's why we believe Android is inherently better. It should logically follow that this community would support GPL and Apache compliant work and developemnt, and likewise, shun developers and software that's non-compliant. I'm here to change the minds of those who don't believe that should be the case. If that's you, this is the place for you to say your piece and debate.

Hello,

As soon as I tap the wi-fi icon, it turns to an "error" state.

I ve seen some threads here, but could not be sure about the resolution. To give idea let me sum it up. My device has been brought from US and I am in europe. İt is alreasy ship s-off.

android version : 2.3.4

software number : android revolution HD 3.6.0. by mike1986

and this topic

basilcallly tells to apply a signed ROM . But can you please advise which ROM would solve my wi-fi issue. and how to apply that?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] imblfmstr:
I also had similar issue when I flashed the original recovery to remove the rooting and clock work mod...

Now if u have the original recovery installed...flash the OTA updates through it and if you don't have the OTA you need to flash the original ROM

After the flashing ur wifi will work normal
[HTC Sensation] hasan.acar:
hello,

actually I am so new to the stuf. I havent applied any updates to the device, but I guesss it has been s-off ed and applied a different ROM before it has been sold to my friend in USA. Now, which exact ROM would you suggest me to flash and actually where I can find it and read the how to ?.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] stfu:
after stock and root i was on Revolution 3.6.1 and now i am using S3N5EaY v 1.4.0 -> agree .. its very smooth - fast and looks great. but still the most important thing is : battery life.. so before i had to charge 2 times a day on hard-use.

theres no need anymore at the moment ;-)

try out by yaself..
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
Ello m8,

It appears your in the same boat as me, i have the wifi error too, it doesn't even turn on to be able to see networks, let alone connect to them so it's quite horrible.

What i've done:

Flashed pretty much every rom i possibly could. (old ones, new ones, no effect)

Changed the recovery to 4ext (which works great but didn't help)

Changed kernels (a lot)

Changed Radios and RIL files (a lot)

Flashed an official RUU (no effect at all)

Went back to S-ON as described in the tutorial on the main xda sensation guide, then S-OFF'd again.

I'm now back on P3D v 8 and it's running lovely but alas, still no wifi.

I've changed the back cover (the yellow connectors at the top have something to do with the wifi) Don't mess around with these as you may break something, changing the case had no effect, apparently the wifi still connects without the back cover on the phone.

I am literally at my wits end with this and i got my phone for free from my work and i was only supposed to have had it for a while (4 months) so if i say it's broke, they may take it back and i've lost the phone completely, if that wasn't the case then i would have sent it back after i'd tried everything software wise i could think of.

I'm not saying that you are in the same situation exactly but if you are then it looks bleak and i would say anything next to removing the wifi chip and replacing it would mean the wifi will never work, plus tutorials for replacing the wifi on a sensation are scarce to say the least (torque screwdrivers at the ready)

If i get it working i'll let you know how, please do the same if you get any joy.

Oh i almost forgot, another thread on another site they mention using an app called wefi, i didn't have any luck but you might.

Good luck matey :) Hope you have more than i did. :(
[HTC Sensation] bk_25:
Hi,

I am having the same issue.

Have been running android revolution HD 3.6.5. by mike1986 and previous versions of it (2, 3) and no issues with the WiFi, as one day it just started (yesterday to be precise). I did not install anything or played with settings that could mess with the wi-fi. One day ago was working ok and the next not.

Tried the Wefi app but it did not help either.

feeling hopeless...
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
Looks like this error is more common than it would first have appeared, read my post a few up for what i've tried, i even feel like dropping it if it's something inside so as to knock it back into place, but i haven't yet :) Lol that's desperation.

I've got an appointment with HTC soon and i'm getting it changed, if anyone gets this sorted then let me know as i'd rather keep my phone.
[HTC Sensation] bk_25:
Hi,

I also tried all you tried and no results.

Changed the case with a friends phone but did not help either.

After a lot of reading through the forums did a logcat to see what the hack the phone is saying about this error and it seems it cannot load the driver.

If it helps smb to go deeper can post it.

Gave a thought or two about knocking it against the wall or throw it from the window but after-all, i think i can live for some time without wifi, my GPRS speed is not bad and maybe soon will be having 3G and during work time can use internet pass-through.

Worst case scenario, will sell it and get EDGE the new quad-core monster HTC will be releasing next year Q1 or early Q2.
[HTC Sensation] ozy01:
Dude I got the same problem and I did the same procedure so far but same results as well.

I am just wondering if you got any better results for this issue.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Little_Ducky:
Same problem, bad results...

I had the same problem. Both my Bluetooth and WiFi would get stuck on "turning on" but never did, I flashed so many ROMs and Kernels, Tried RUU's from Europe,Asia, and USA and nothing worked. SO I CALLED HTC...thankfully I was still under warranty (It's a 12 month warranty) and shipped my phone away after flashing the latest official T-Mobile RUU, Un-Rooting, and going back to S-ON. It's been a week...I called and they said THE MOTHERBOARD needed to be replaced, which I think is the "default fix" if they can't solve the issue. So hopefully in a week I'll have my phone back...Best of Luck...don't mean to be a Debby Downer but I tried EVERYTHING. Give em a call, it won't hurt to try.

[Xperia Play General] stoneyholme:
hi does anyone out there got gingerbreak working on xperia play 2.3.3

without downgrading ROM. and ota. would love to be able to root without flashing to a previousROM as to scared incase of bricking phone.

help would be appreciated. thanks
[Xperia Play General] solitarymonkey:
The exploit that Gingerbreak roots the phone through was patched in the 2.3.3 update. The only other way is to either use the auto root fastboot method, or flash one of doomlords kernels which is prerooted. But obviously, you will need an unlocked bootloader for that
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
Gingerbreak can still be used granting you downgrade to the very first ROM the Xperia PLAY came with, and that's 2.3 then OTA upgrade to keep it updated.

Why are you afraid? It's so damn easy you can use WotanClient or FlashTool. Besides, you will never have to unlock bootloader since you're not up to flashing ROMs and so i presume...
[Xperia Play General] stoneyholme:
thanks for the reply. shame about gingerbreak not working as that would have been my preferred choice to root.looks like i will have to downgrade ROM at some point. need to get this bloatware off my phone and give me some memory back.

I've flashed roms before on my xperia x10 using flash. which was easy to do and worked

just don't want to brick my brand new fantastically brilliant xperia play.
[Flipout and Charm General] suoko:
I'm now comparing this phone with an i8700 and really cant understand what the problem is with flipout.

Flipout has a 1170mah battery, 720 mhz cpu and a 2.8" display.

I8700 has a 1500mah battery, 1ghz cpu and 4" display.

Flipout lasts half a day, i8700 almost 1 day and a half.
[Flipout and Charm General] suoko:
The only difference is active connections but i'd say they are quite similar as far as connection consumption is concerned.

On flipout i got android default active connection (google sync) + facebook app with no active chat.

On i8700 i have winlive+fb active chats, gmail pulling every 15mins and google sync of cal and contacts.
[Flipout and Charm General] chaos_xie:
My flipout will last for 10-12 hours, with min usage. With the same setting on my LG p50, it will last for 10 days! (yes, it is 10 days)

My flipout must have some hardware or driver issue, because it feels a little bit warm even in standby. This indicate power consumption somewhere. Maybe the phone can not properly get into sleep mode. I don't think this is an individual issue, lots of people have the same issue.

My LG p50 always stays cold when standby.

Here I am Sharing the way to use Clockwork Mod Recovery v5.0.2.0 Using Alternate Keys! (other than volume/power keys)

OFFCOURSE This is not a trick, Infact this facility is present in Clockwork Mod Itself

For Many Users it's a pain to Scroll through using Volume Keys, So This is Rather a Easiest way now to choose the Rom You want to Install, and no need to use volume up and down keys to scroll through..So let's Began!

I Made this Thread only for those who don't know about this yet, So if anyone knows, Please don't Say that this is a old method or something like that :)

1) To Scroll Up, Hit "HOME" Key.

2) To Scroll Down, Hit "MENU" Key.

3) To Go Back (To Previous Menu), Hit "BACK" Key.

4) And To Select (For Example ROM/OPTIONS Etc) Hit "SEARCH" Key.

Hope This Will do a world of good to NOT ALL BUT MOST Users, (LIKE IT DID TO ME :D Because before I know this, I was afraid that one day, I'll loose My volume keys during Clockwork mod Operations :D
[HTC Sensation] jacksparr0w:
Thank you. :)
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
I just figured this out today -_________- Would've been nice if you posted sooner!! :)
[HTC Sensation] Alipk52:
I figured it out yesterday as well, when I accidentialy pressed home key, and it scrolled up :D, so I tested other keys and found them working too :)

I hate it because of the haptic feedback, would like to disable it.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Ok this is a good idea for a thread, it can help spread the word to noobs about using the soft keys to navigate and make selections in Clockwork Mod Recovery. But I feel like this should be said because the OP said the following.

Now with the up coming new version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, the soft keys will be gone and you will have virtual keys at the bottom of the screen for the home, back, menu, and search buttons like you do in Honeycomb with the exception of the search button that is. So you will have no choice but to use the external volume up and down rocker and the power button to select. Also tablets do not have any hard or soft keys so you have to use the volume rocker and the power button to select. Matter of fact Clockwork Mod Recovery on a tablet has a extra option in each menu at the bottom. it is a back option because you have no hard or soft keys to go back with. So if you ask me the soft keys may be easier, but it will not be a option for long.
[HTC Sensation] Alipk52:
This is why I wanted to share, coz lots of people still unaware about it, however, sadly, I don't have enough knowledge about tablets, currently I have used devices with said keys only :), I think I've posted this on sensation forum, which offcourse has keys, and you're right, I'll mention this in op as well, coz indeed honeycomb/tablets are future, agree with you mate :),thanx a lot for providing me additional knowledge about it, I highly appreciate it :)
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
hi O2X crew. i'm considering buying this phone but upon reading a few forums this phone is pretty unreliable to start with. i've noticed there had been a major software update by LG. so does it mean now the phone people can buy from the stores are a lot better than before?
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
there has been no major update. you are better off with something thats not from lg.... i would recommend a nexus, maybe wait on the new one

the hardware (at least in most cases) is not the problem, the problem is the utterly bad software and support from lg.

[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
If u haven't buy it, don't. If u bought it, go for cyanogenmod rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
no i haven't bought it yet. isn't the v10d a big update?
[LG Optimus 2x] droweed:
no its not, though it fixes bugs present on initial release

I'd advice you to just forget o2x, and wait a while for the nexus release, you'll add a few bucks, and you'll get a rock solid phone + with awesome support, unlike the o2x(still has no official gb update)
[LG Optimus 2x] ThePigletWhisperer:
OMG ppl...

Am I the only satisfied owner?

Dont know whats the fuzz about.

I got the 2x for 300 euros and am more than satisfied.

With Cyanogenmod its stable, super fast and good battery life.

Ok stock rom might not be the best rom out there but whatever device i would gotten, i would install cyanogenmod either way. So....

I recommend it if you are under a bit of a tight budget. If not go for SGSII
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
lorismarcos: when did u get your o2x?

so with the update, does the phone still reboot, freeze, bad battery life, etc etc etc?

i'm considering o2x cuz its the best phone right now for fido in which i can redeem my fido dollars on. i wish fido has a better lineup.
[LG Optimus 2x] maumaumiow:

[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
LG Optimus 2X!!!!! its a lost cause, just do your best to stay way from it or any other LG phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] Soulj4h:
I concur with other people's opinions that the software part really needs improving from LGs end. However, as far as the hardware is concerned you get your bang for your buck. It plays well with other dual core phones so with a custom ROM you can really exploit the capabilities of the phone. Even on the stock ROM (Which I am using at the moment) the phone is running fine, no randon BSODs for me at the moment, and battery life pretty good, actually last a few more more than a day. So, I'd say it's a good phone but LG has reduced the quality of it by not releasing updated software for it.
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
when did u get yours Soul?
[LG Optimus 2x] orlox:
The problem with optimus 2x is in 3 parts

1st it was delivered with a really BAD software (random reboots etc)

2nd They promised gb update at may-june (whick never happened till today they postpone it all the time)

3rd they dont release their propriaty software so no stable aosp roms wet

2.2 IS stable now but if you try 2.3 youll see a speed and battery and api improvment. So eveyone wants 2.3

If lg had said "People I sell this phone but youll get 2.3 in a year noone would qq now.

If lg opened their sources unrooted people would qq now

As things are now all are qqing.

My advice is get this phone. The price / value is very high. That if you can live with 2.2 froyo which doesnt have any problems nowdays but still its not 2.3 gingerbread.

psI was one of the first people that got optimus 2x (snif 500€) and I had numerous of problems with 10b version but it was ok with 10a. after 10d with 725 baseband it was buggless
[LG Optimus 2x] Dac0908:
Nope, there are more of us :cool:

Never had any problems, really. And our phone is getting better and better, there is no doubt about it. Even if LG sucks - our developers did wonders out of beta leaks :)
[LG Optimus 2x] rottenpenguin:
Also beware of the BSOD problem, that hasn't been yet fixed, even in the leaked GB ROMs (it's probably a hardware issue). It occures every 3-4 days and the only way to unblock the phone is to take out the battery.

Do NOT buy this phone until you're sure LG sorted this bug out!
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
buy it, its a god phone i never had a problem and i gad it the day it come out
[LG Optimus 2x] fumantsu:
I have o2x for me and my wife.

My boss bought o2x 2 weeks before me (they stole it though).

My recommendations for you is better pick another phone.

Reasons:

My wife runs on stock rom 2.2.2

For facebook, phone, sms camera and some silly games is just fine with the stock rom and good phone for its money.

On the other hand my phone runs on custom rom (topogigis) because the battery, customization, stability isnt what i like on the phone and i want more than a few apps like my wife. Stock 2.2 was a nightmare for me. Reboots, bad reaction and generally not stable for my taste.

My boss had 5 times reinstall stock rom etc because he had issues with the phone. He said at last installation that the phone runned smoothly although BSOD was a daily bases (at least once a day).

Conclusion:

If u want a phone with stock roms and never care about anything else look for another phone. LG support sucks, just forget stock rom.

If u want a phone with good hardware and low money but u want to custom everything then buy one but get in mind that u might have to learn how to cook roms because many developers might quit developing on this phone and buy another phone, considering LG support.
[LG Optimus 2x] krumcake:
Haters gonna hate

Wow, there are so many haters in this thread, lol

I love my 2x. It is the best phone I ever had.

I didn't have any problems with the original stock rom (except for the fact that it was a little sluggish). After the last LG update (10d), everything is nice and smooth.

I am on a gingerbread leak (topogigi) because I am a nerd, but I found the 10d fast and stable.

Also, lol at having to learn how to cook roms to use the phone. I think developer support for our phone is awesome and nothing makes me think that it's going to be changing any time soon.
[LG Optimus 2x] mags014:
Everything is working for me on my O2X here. No SODs or random restarts or any problem. Still running on stock rom V10e 2.2.2. Still trying to think if I'll go with CM or Topogigi or hope for a GB update.

Well, its your call. LG is really hit or miss with the O2X. If you want to be sure about your purchase, go with the other phones, but if your tight on budget, this is definitely a bang for the buck.

I know there are a lot of haters out there but as for me, I'm extremely happy with my O2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] ThePigletWhisperer:
I installed the newst cyanogenmod, which is 2.3.7 and now i get 2-3 days battery life which is unbelievable for a dual core phone. It's incredebly fast, like ... OMG : P and i think one of the best for gaming, if not the best because of its value for money.

Ok bottom line this is what i think...

If you are one of those ppl that buy a phone, and they dont wanna spent time on it to customize it etc, and use the device with stock futures, stay away. But if you are a sort of a techno geek, that likes to mess around and customize your phone, go right ahead and buy it.

Oh somebody asked when i bought my phone, dont remember who : )

I bought my device in August.
[LG Optimus 2x] raf2k:
I totally agree with other users. Don't buy this crap.
[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
I only hate LG for the poor software support, I am not experiencing any bugs on my one. I bought the O2X in June, but if you want better software support I wouldn't recommend to buy this.
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
it's like 50/50 now damn haha.. i dont mind messing with the phone a bit just to make to work right. tweaks, updates, rooting... i just dont think i will cook my own roms.

question: does everyone that did the cyanogenmod (2.3.7) get good battery life, fast and phone doesnt crash (BSOD, reboots)?
[LG Optimus 2x] pl3nty:
I've had this phone since June. I knew it had issues when I bought it but figured it would encourage me to experiment with custom roms etc, which I may not have had the motivation to do otherwise (I'm an embedded software engineer by trade so these things interest me).

Had some strange issues with the stock rom, like missing text messages but I don't think it ever froze on me.

Jumped across to Cyanogen Mod after a few days of the stock rom and have had very few issues since then.

Call quality is a bit flakey (mostly on receiving end of the call), especially with newer basebands (the baseband is the radio module separate from the "ROM" itself) and I've also experienced a few BSODs during phone calls, but overall I'm happy with this phone.

I don't think there's such a thing as a perfect phone, and as far as hardware and aesthetics go this phone really shines, the screen in particular is lovely. I've had nothing but complements about my O2X and comparing it to my workmate's HTC DesireHD is like comparing the original iPhone with the iPhone 4 - the O2X is just that much nicer.

So if you're feeling adventurous go for the O2X, else you're probably better off with something that "just works" out of the box. Heard of the iPhone? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] ludeguy:
never had an I-product in my life yet. probably never will :) just think they are all overpriced. I will keep researching on the Cyanogen Mod.
[LG Optimus 2x] rasmusx:
I have to agree with most users here. It is a good phone with decent hardware but a lot of software problems. But with customs roms it's much better. Been running latest CyanogenMod nightlies and phone is stable. No random crashes or anything like that.
[LG Optimus 2x] ThePigletWhisperer:
Its really weird that some have problems with stock and some dont. Even with stock i didnt get once any bsod's. My only problem with stock was that it was froyo. So i install CM7 to get gingerbread. Thats it. Oh and once a week i had to do a simple reboot because it was getting a tad slow. Then again i only had stock for like 2 weeks. : )
