[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
Hmm very interesting.... but if I had to start looking somewhere I would think that maybe it's a launcher issue and not a ROM issue...

Which launcher is that?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
Totally forgot to mention using Nova Launcher - latest version - free version.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
Yeah I can see how that would be a hassle... well I also use Nova but its the Prime version and I don't see any settings for icon cache...

Too much trouble to ask you to try a different launcher for a day or two to see if it still happens? OR backup your settings from Nova... install a different launcher and reboot. Once rebooted reinstall Nova and restore settings

Another question... are you using the diffential nightlife or full ROM each night?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
I don't usually do back to back daily updates so it is always a full not an incremental update. When I get some time I'll have to try another launcher and see it the problem persists or not.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
Then your problem sounds like it may be in the fact that the full ROM formats the system partition and wipes caches which is getting rid of your work...

Suggest this tomorrow that you download the incremental and apply it rather than the full ROM and see if afterwards things remain the same
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
Definitely worth a shot. But why would only those 9 icons in particular be affected and not all of them?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
I just did the 6/6 incremental update (after fixing the 9 icons in question); the update applied w/o issue but after the reboot the same 9 were back to the little green android. Whether full or incremental I always select the clear caches option in GooManager before flashing a ROM update.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmarchant:
I would guess those programs are having their icons cached differently. Have those apps been 'moved' to the 'sd' card?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
YOU ARE THE MAN! All 9 plus 1 other app (which is not on my desktop) are showing as On SD. I'm going to move them back now and see what happens tomorrow when I flash 6/7. Great find! Thanks dude!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktklein72:
Just "moved" them back, rebooted and everything was restored. Thank you for the suggestions guys - most appreciated!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmarchant:
Glad to help - I have had a similar problem on another tablet when the 'real' sd card gets dismounted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] BrysonJack:
I have a rooted GT-P6210 that was working perfectly fine and last night I updated Busy Box Free from Google Play. Busy Box Free reported an error with the install and shortly after I noticed that my Wi-Fi would no longer connect. It just reports "Error" after trying to connect to Wi-Fi.

I tried re-rooting my device but that didn't fix my Wi-Fi issues. I researched everywhere I could think of to unroot my device but all the threads seem to refer to guides that I don't see and firmware links that no longer work. I managed to find a copy of Odin3-v3.04 (not sure if that is the right version) but I still don't have instructions on how to do it nor do I have the firmware that I need.

I decided I would try going back to factory settings by powering off the device and booting into system recovery. I have done a wipe data/factory reset multiple times but Wi-Fi still doesn't work and I don't even know if that removed the root job I did.

When I plug my device into my PC and run Samsung Kies it reports that I have the latest firmware PDA:LA3 / CSC:LA3 (XAR)

So I am stuck and not sure what to do at this point. I have a pretty useless device that won't connect to Wi-Fi. I don't know if I wait around for ICS and install that if it will fix my problem.

Is there anyone that could help me restore my device to factory settings with actual guides, and provide working links to the firmware I would need?

Thanks for your help,

Bryson

I have an identical problem - albeit with a P6200 supplied by UK mobile network "3"

Busybox tried to update itself from 1.20.0 to 1.20.1 (using "Smart Install")

For whatever reason it failed. From then on, the Wifi wouldn't turn on - the button in the pop-up panel (can't remember what it's called!) going from grey to greyed-out green while trying to connect, and eventually giving up and dropping back to grey again - in control panel the Wifi section then just says "Error".

Also Tethering no longer works... clicking on "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot" gives me "Turning on..." in grey for 15-20 secs and then "Error"

I've not tried a factory wipe/reset or anything yet. Any suggestions?

Many thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Kyazuh:
I have also had this issue with my Galaxy Tab 7 Plus (GT-P6210) since Monday evening.

When I noticed the problem I was going to try and restore a backup. During that process is when I noticed that I no longer had root access.

This morning I had a friend look at my device and he noticed that the 'Auto Update' was active. I thought I had that deactivated but apparently not. I’m wondering if an update was pushed out that destroyed root and as a result messed with the Wifi access. So far I haven’t gone any further than this.

Those of you having a similar issue, have you also lost root access? I wonder if re-rooting if that would solve the problem?

I started having the exact same issue two days ago, I've done countless factory resets and same deal, wifi comes up with error when trying to turn on.

I'm using an international p6200

PDA: P6200LUBKL1

Phone: P6200LUBKL1

CSC: P6200LUUBKL2

I've search everywhere for that firmware to try and do a re-install with Odin, but I cant find it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] spwyatt:
Update: Just done a full factory reset, and still no Wifi.

Would a full firmware flash sort it? I've found the correct firmware for my UK "3" network P6200 here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1517934

This is for flashing with Heimdall:

... though I've never used Heimdall - or even flashed a ROM TBH - so a bit hesitant to give it a go......
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] spwyatt:
Update 2:

Just flashed with stock firmware and Odin - all back to normal, Wifi working!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] isalas16:
After much searching around I was finally able to find the correct original firmware for my TAB:

P6200LUBKL1

I found it on a Chinese site: (I cant post links yet lol )

With Google translator, I was able to download the file and flash the TAB using Odin3, everything worked perfectly, and Wifi is working fine again!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] jneapan:
I also had this problem after trying to update busybox,only I also had a random SoD issue that had me constantly rebooting my device. The only thing that managed to fix it was to Odin back to stock. I'm reluctant to root it again, but at least the problem is gone...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] leodfs:
If you open the zip that you use to root this device, you will see that it is basically a binary called su and one script that move it to your device and set permissions. If you want to remove the root, you only have to delete this single file,

In some devices is not as easy, what the script do on our update package must be done with exploits, but the result is the same: move su to some folder on PATH, and set permissions.

That is it, there is no chance to be root fault, seems like some problem with busybos. Actually people like to blame root a lot
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] VitaZora:
The same exact thing has happened to me with my P6210. When I put the device to sleep, I usually turn off wifi. This time I forgot and when I woke it up yesterday evening, the BusyBox updater was open. It failed, of course, and now my wifi won't turn on. No MAC or IP address.

EDIT: Used Odin to return to stock. Rerooted (but did not install CWM) and then installed Superuser, updated su binary. Then installed Busybox Installer which then installed Busybox. Stayed away from Busybox, which seems to have been the source of the problem on my device.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] tzacapaca:
my bad..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
Just updated Busybox to version 1.20.1 myself using the smart updater without any issues. Got message it installed correctly and wifi still works even after rebooting.

edit: One difference between me and the op is that I didn't use Google Play to update Busybox I used the apps smart install through the app itself.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] leodfs:
Could someone try to uninstall busybox?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Kyazuh:
I tried to uninstall busy box still no wifi.

In recovery mode I tried to reinstall my previous load from the file I had on my SD Card. Again no luck.

I'm willing to do a wipe on mine and put the original firmware back on. Has anyone done this with P2610? I have been looking through the forums and I have seen a lot for the P2600 but not much for P2610.

Thanks

Do you have root still? I can give you a copy of my /system/bin and /system/xbin. As you are about to flash it new i think it could worth the shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] isalas16:
Yesterday after I flashed with the stock Rom, wifi was working fine, I rooted the tablet again installed busybox again and have not experienced wifi issues as of yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Kyazuh:
leodfs using RootChecker it showed that I did not have root access anymore.

isalas16 did you flash from the SD Card using the recovery mode? Or did you use a desktop program like Odin or Heimdall? Also do you have the name of the stock ROM file that you used?

I'm on the newb side of things here and I want to make sure I'm using the right process and files.

If you dont have root and tried the root proccess again:

1– the process of root return any error?

2– if you tap on a terminal emulator this :

echo $PATH

What is the output?

3– If the root process returns no error and you have any folder on the output of command above before /system/bin that have a su binary, it probably does not have proper permissions. Probably if you try to tap on terminal emulator this:

/system/bin/su

It will ask you for root permissions and will work.

4- I did a copy of my /system/bin folder, if you have any knowing of set permissions and using a terminal pm me. And if you coul get a terminal with su permission from commnand above.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] hokuto34:
1-No error report with root process

2- I shall try that I send feedback (I have no terminal emulator on te tab :( )

When I want to start app wich demand root, that say something that (I translate from french)"App have received super user permission (in french privilège=permission ?)" and just after "your system is not root"

But in superuser all the apk I run are ok ???

For the rest of your answer I must take a little time to install sofware (no wifi, so I have to take them on my galaxy s2, copy on my computer with the external sd card.....)

Thanks very much

edit

2 - report $PATH

3 - is ok for super user, no report error

For the moment I only find a simple terminal (without yes or no root permission ?), but in super user I have now this 12:15 pTerminal Créé (Created in english)

Well what can I do or have to do ?

the /system/bin have 154 files, this is the one you spoke about I think ?

I try to install Better Terminal Pro 2.21

result :

in green little text

"sh applet not found"

"export PATH=data/local/bin: $PATH"

error message Shell failed to launch, Do you want to exit, enter safe mode, or attemp to re-download the shell?

I tried re-download : same thing

I tried safe mode : same thing

Alright my GT-P6210 is back in business. This is what I did to get mine back up.

I powered off my Tab and turned it back on in recovery mode (holding the power and up volume until the Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus 7.0 name was displayed then let go of the power while still holding the power up).

Next from the front menu I (1) 'Wipe cache partition' (2) 'Wipe data/factory reset' (reset of the custom rom that I'm running)

Then I selected 'Backup and restore' > 'Restore'

This took a few minutes.

Once complete I selected 'Reboot system now'

It loaded right up and Wifi was back and RootChecker confirms that I have root. I will have to reload many of my apps and settings. I don't mind since my Tab is working again. I hope this can help anyone else that is having the same issue.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] leodfs:
If you have other android device try to install android terminal emulator (jack palevick) from playstore. You could then copy the apk from /data/app to your tab and install it.

1 - the result of

echo $PATH

Is something like this:

/data/local/bin:/sbin:/vendor/bin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin

2-if when you type /system/bin/su on terminal and the front command symbol $ change to #, you got a terminal with superuser permission. Only with that you can replace the bin folder.

3- shell not found was a terrible signal, hope the busybox didnt f# up your system that baddly, can anyone confirm the folder busybox installed itself in those cases?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] hokuto34:
Nothing like that in 1 nor in 2

with pTerminal (the only one who works) I had for 2- "sh: applet not found"

bad news for me :( so root is lost

For restore my wifi I shall try the post of Kyazuh, where do you found "backup and restore", I have a stock rom

Hi, everybody,

I'm in exactly the same situation.

I have a Amazon wifi version, product code GTP6210MYGR.

I installed root.zip, then su and busybox from market.

as I updated busybox on this tablet before and everything worked fine, I didn't think it would break anything.

I lost root, tried several factory resets, re-root, tried some different stock ROMs, without success.

shame on me, I didn't backed up my entire system, so I don't have my stock ROM to recover.

did anybody see on the web this ROM?

product code: GTP6210MYGR

Kernel version: 2.6.36-P6210UELA3-CL616928

compilation: HTJ85B.UELA3 P6210UELA3

any help will be extremely welcome.

The problem is with the Stericson busybox installer v1.2.0

It was the upgrade to busybox 1.2.0 that did this. To be clear, it is the Stericson installer in his 1.2.0 version. Versions after 1.2.0 are fixed. The problem occured when that versions installer incorrectly overwrote simlinks to applets. The only way to fix this is to re-flash with a stock rom. You will need to reroot after that and if you had removed bloatware, it is going to be back after the flash so you will need to remove the bloatware again.

update.zip

I've emailed directly the creator of busybox and he said that there is a way to restore wifi without a total wipe of the system. he said to boot the device to recovery and re-flash with update.zip and then my wifi would be restored without any loss of data.

I've been asking him though where can I find this update.zip file. If this is specific to a firmware version or something. But he hasn't gotten back to me on this yet. Would anybody know about this and where I can fetch this? I really don't want to wipe my device clean. Though I've tried to attempt that earlier but Odin doesn't seem to detect my device despite following the instructions to install Kies. Kies, on the other hand, doesn't even detect my device. Unsupported device as the pop up would say. So this seems to be my final option.

Hello all!

Ive noticed rather unusual thing. For example - when i get around 50% of battery left i can reboot the device and get about 80%:D but of coz its dropping faster then normal charged %.

Iam on mugen 1950 mah and have done wiping battery stats and done the calibration.

ROM - HyperNonSence 1.5 with faux 006u kernel.

Any suggestions?

Thanks all in advance!
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
Yeah this has happened with every Android phone and every battery I've had.

Don't think there is anything you can do about it to be honest. You could reboot it again and sometimes the indicator will fall closer to where it was before.

Or you can use it i.e. play a game or browse the web and usually it will fall to a more accurate level.

Alternatively, just plug it back in and wait till it charges to 100%, unplug and then reboot. If it is still green then it's likely charged fully.
