[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeptimanpanda:
Hello Again

I have started facing this issue again, when I am installing 4.2.2 ROMs now. The trick you had mentioned of copying the older version wifi files (from the dropbox location you mentioned) and pasting them in /etc/wifi is not helping now.

After pasting the files in wifi folder, and rebooting, when i turn on the Wifi, it stays in 'Turning On' state. It neither allows me to turn Wifi Off or on. Even a reboot is not helping.

Any further suggestions on how to fix this issue is appreciated?

Also, one question, am I the only one who is facing this issue? Why I don't hear from anyone else in the forums about this issue? This is like a permanent issue for me since 4.1.2 upgrade.

Appreciate your help.

Regards

Deeptiman

Hi

Anyone, Any help? I have attached the screenshot to compare the files in the /etc/wifi folder between the version 4.1.1 and 4.2.2.

Hope this helps. I see a number of new files and some files which have changed over the release.

Earlier copying the old wifi files in to the /etc/wifi folder used to fix the problem. now it is not helping.

Appreciate any help.

Regards

Hi All

Any help? Am I the only one having this issue? I checked in some of the other android development forums and I saw a lot of messages, but they were all from last year.. Is there any update on my request?

Or am I putting the issue in a wrong forum / thread?

Appreciate any help to further debug the issue.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeptimanpanda:
Thanks for the reply. Check the suggestion in this thread of copying the wifi folder using a root explorer/efs explorer. It fixed the issue for some of the ROM's and till 4.2.1. But again it resurfaced with 4.2.2 ROM's.

I am also searching in some other forums and threads. Will try to inform, if I find something.

Did you try resetting the router? It helps for some.

AW: [Q] Wifi Not connecting for 4.2.1 ROM's - Galaxy N7100

I know this. This helps. But not in the future 4.2 samsung realeases. So this is just a ugly fix. I will stay at 4.1.2. Und wait for leakt samsung 4.2. Roms with a hopefully fixed wifi module.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeptimanpanda:
I just read in some other forum that the issue is with AOSP and CM based ROMs. To try it out, I installed a AOKP based ROM - Resurrection Remix and the wifi worked fine. But for the record, another AOKP ROM - ROOTBOX had the same wifi issue.

So if anyone is really stuck with this Wifi issue and wants to try the Android 4.2.1/2, you can try the AOKP ROM's for a change.

Hi,

Have you found a fix for the wifi not connecting problem? Unfortunately for me, resetting the router doesn't help.

I'm thinking of exchanging my n7100, but I need to know which version to avoid that has this problem.

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------

I'm surprised this is still a problem with the latest CM 10.1 nightlies (I've tried 2013-04-01).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Televinken:
Same problem here, since the 4,1.2 update. I had high hopes for the upcoming 4.2 update to adress it, but those hopes fall flat to the ground, reading this thread. All that's left to do then, is to return the phone for warranty service. Something I've avoided so far, since I really need my phone on a from day to day basis. I suspect that I won't get it back for 3-4 weeks. A really disturbing option. I'm lost now....

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stubbies:
First time poster, same issue with WiFi on CM 10.1. I can't find a solution to this for the life of me. The phone is 3 days old, so by the sound of it, this is something common to newer N7100 hardware?

Does anyone have a working solution to this WiFi problem?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jileo:
Someone have tried to start with old rom touchwizz and old radio?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clearday:
I posted about this a few weeks ago, but the problem you describe seems to be rare enough that no one believes the WiFi not playing nice with CM exists.

So basically, I had to return the brand new N7100 and purchase a used one that worked with CM. Until enough people complain, I don't think this problem will be addressed (at least it wasn't in my case). Your best bet is to exchange for another one and hope it doesn't have the same issue.

Keep in mind not all newer N7100 are affected.

My friend has a Galaxy Note and he has forgotten the lock screen password. I rooted the phone and also installed CWM and did a backup. He has files on the phone (pictures and sms messages and more) that he wants to save and a total wipe/hard reset is not what he wants to do at this point. Is there anything I can do to this phone to get around this forgotten lock screen password?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DARKCHYLDX101:
Flash latest twrp in PDA slot with Odin..it just replaces recovery. Use the recovery file manager to move files to external SD card. Wipe except external. Reflash ROM. You now have access to phone. Files should be safe on external SD card if you didn't wipe it.

You also could mount phone to PC through recovery and transfer files to PC. Then just wipe everything and reflash ROM. Then move files back. Easy way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
I was able to get around my PIN lock by doing this (I'm on stock odexed ICS):

1. Dirty flashed JellyBam ROM. It didn't boot all the way (no surprise) so I powered down and rebooted into CWM.

2. Then I dirty flashed BSX. It booted w/o prompting for my PIN. My phone was still setup with all my apps and launcher how I left it and my pics and stuff were still there.

For the record I am not suggestion this "method" over anyone else's. Just trying to help.

I need one or two testers that are willing to test a few select ROMs I'm building. I want to bring the primoU up to date with CM10.1 and 4.2.1+.

So i tried to flash Erigyts custom/stock rom with root (ZCKPA, 2.3.6) from XXKPF (2.3.5). I didnt find root for the rom, so i thought i could flash a pre-rooted rom. Odin failed, and i soft bricked the device. Im unable to boot into download mode. With my galaxy s i would take out the battery and leave it a while, and then boot into download mode and flash with odin. But i cant take out the players battery. It's like glued with the motherboard?:confused:

So i thought i could let the battery die and then charge it a bit and boot into download mode. But every time i plug in the charger/computer cable, it boots up to the softbrick screen. Ive tried very many combos, but cant figure out how to boot it into download mode. My computer/odin doesn't recognize the device.

i have no access to a jig at all.

And the phone does charge(i think).

HEEEELPPPPP!!!!!!!!

update: Ok so i figured out how to disconnect the battery. I did but it dont want to boot into download mode. It still goes to softbrick screen when i connect it to a charger/computer.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SublimingSun:
Hi, guys,

I've been having the problem mentioned in the subject line lately. Onavo Count is notifying me several times per day that the mobile tracker is hogging my data, and it really does (I've a separate app from Vodafone that allows me to monitor that and it checks out).

I've switched off the remote access features from Samsung, it still does it.

I can't disable the app as I am currently on stock JB (latest 4.1.2).

Galaxy S3 GT - I9300, stock, carrier is Vodafone.

Any help with this is hugely appreciated, as my data cap is 500Mb/month and the mobile tracker is eating up something like 20-30Mb/daily sometimes.

One last thing : I'd get the same notification on CM 10.1 nightly, but switched back to stock as I it had several bugs (and I want to stay on stock until stable 10. 1 is out). Figured moving to stock would also take care of this issue, it didn't.

Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrRedPants:
This is my first Samsung phone - had an HTC incredible, then a motorola bionic. I'm a veteran regarding flashing, rooting, etc - but, as many of you know, each device has it's own nomenclature and quirks - so, I'm getting my feet wet. I familiarized myself but had a couple more questions.

I followed this thread first:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1974114

Decided to install latest leaked image - then rooted and unlocked and flashed TWRP. No issues, works great. This had me on VRBMA2.

I got squirrley for a new experience - only took me maybe 24 hours - so, decided to flash a ROM or two. Stuck with stock ROMs based off VRBLK3, CleanROM and Synergy. Both flashed fine, no big issues. I did note however that baseband still read VRBMA2. Because I've had the Bionic for so long with it's *$*%*$* locked bootloader, the idea of flashing custom kernel's and radios is foreign to me. I PRESUME, the baseband is the radio, but I don't know. I realized it was probably ideal to have the VRBLK3 baseband, but, since it was still JB, figured SHOULD be ok. Which it was in general, but, I wasn't sure - so I went back to stock via openyoureyes thread above.

So

1. Can someone clarify the importance of matching the baseband with what the ROM is based off of? How does this relate to non-stock ROMs? i.e. AOSP, AOKP, CM. I'm 99 % sure I've read that the ROM does not modify the baseband or the kernel.

(( 2. openyoureyes files do not modify data (I presume he means data folder with system apps). If I wanted to go back to square one - I presume the image files that he has 'hidden' and warns about using are the original image files to flash via ODIN if I want stock stock. (analagous to an SBF or FXZ file in a motorola device. He just has such serious warnings I wanted to be sure.

** Answered question 2 myself via here -- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1762709 section 5 *** ))

Thanks in advance. I love this phone and am having fun learning another device.
