[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ceedeeess84:
Hi Guys.

Im not expecting CyanogenMod nightlies to be bug-free, but it seems everyone else using them is reporting working WIFI.

I have tried all of them, and always get the same error... perhaps (likely) im doing somthing stupid.

The Symptom:

Enable wifi the usual way, tragging the wifi toggle switch to "on",

the text "Turning on wi-fi" appears, tobble switch jumps back to off.

The following appears in logcat.

01-05 19:09:48.273: E/WifiStateMachine(673): Failed to load driver!
01-05 19:09:48.293: E/WifiStateMachine(673): DriverFailedState

The following appears in dmesg.

<4>[ 741.680694] dhdsdio_probe: dhd_bus_start failed

Everything else is working perfectly.

Model - Samsung Galaxy S4 - JFLTECAN United Kingdom - '3' Network.

It looks like I am missing the firmware?

The current plan of action is to download and flash the stock ROM, find the firlware, re-flash a nightly, and ADB push it into the correct place.

Am I barking up the correct tree ?

This prblem appeared exactly when i flashed the first nightly, so im hoping i havent fried the wifi chip during a flash.

Thanks.

Chris.

Yup.. im lost.

With the same dmesg output?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Theis81:
Let me check, I went back to stock when I realized I had no wifi. I will likely flash last night's build today as well, will report back on functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Pixelhouse:
i'm having the same issue, however i'm back on stock android now, so i don't have access to the terminal fix.

so how would i go to fixing this please?

Edit:

ADB method :

disable wifi

adb root

adb shell rm /data/.cid.info

enable wifi

No-adb method :

Download a root-enabled file explorer from Play Store (such as ES File Explorer)

Disable wifi

Remove /data/.cid.info

Enable wifi
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Theis81:
Oddly enough I rebooted into CM just now and both bluetooth and wifi are working, not sure what was up. Sorry I couldn't help here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ceedeeess84:
Wow... That has fixed it !?

The kernel logs about failing to upload firmware seem to have been a massive red-herring.

THANKS!!!

Very Very Odd!

Oh well.. Thanks again!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Robson:
2 questions and if both have been discussed before; apologies for bringing it up again and appreciate it if you can point me to the link...

1) the blue tooth app in my laptop is about to be activated; thus allowing me to do a number of things like sync, try controlling my pc through my xda, etc. when you sync your xda to the laptop; does this cause any ruins with other blue tooth bonded devices? i use jabra and whenever i sync my xda via cradle the bonding with the headset is gone.

2) this one i'm pretty sure was discussed before but can't find the discussion in the forum. is it possible to use the xda2 as a live cam? i use the microsoft remote display to show the screen of my xda on the screen of my laptop. i then activated the camera but all i get is a big black nothing. taking a pic works and is shown on the pc screen; but is there an app or a way to have live feeds? sort of like a webcam / spycam or live camera monitor...

cheers

Im new to rooting. So how do you root the phone if you cant boot into recovery mode??
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] bishopsboy56:
Try universal androot

I dont know too much about this sort of stuff either, but I managed to root my galaxy 5 in a couple of seconds after googling it.

Download universal androot. It rooted my galaxy 5 in a couple of seconds. All I had to do was download the app, install it and then run it

Try googling "root samsung galaxy i5500 universal androot" and click the second link, the one from galaxy5android.blogspot.com

Hope if works! Good luck!

You should be able to find everything with Google if you need to though.

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] XdaNoob98:
This is right. You can't root your G5 with cwm. Odin won't recognize your G5 without root. But when you have rooted it, it should say "device added" or something like that. Then follow the instructions.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] htcslic:
If you are talking about photos still on S3 you need to wipe the internal sd card as well. Factory reset just resets the phone unless you hit the button that says erase everhthing.

I did do that but I will check again. Also I was running app2sd hack so I also wipe sd card.

** NEW BIT!! **

Now there's a free one for Reddit!! - Paid update coming in the next couple of days with some updates to the settings screen and refresh routines to address the bug reports I've had

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mat.socialwallpaper.reddit

I've made a Live Wallpaper that does FB Home style coverflow feeds for Instagram and Tumblr. The little feedback I've had has been pretty positive so thought I would show it off here.

I've tested it on a Nexus 4, Galaxy S3 and Motorola Xoom so far so if you have any problems (or indeed success) with it on any other devices please let me know so I can keep a record for folks.

For Instagram

For Tumblr

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mat.socialwallpaper.tumblr

I'm trying to be pretty active with these so I'd be grateful if you can let me know of any bugs so I can address them for everyone, additionally I'm trying to work out which social network and additional functionality to hit next so if anyone has any ideas let me know and I'll get onto it!

If there already was a giant thread on this I do apologize but I couldn't find it.

Anyway I currently have a Note II but don't use any of the S-Pen features and actually came to dislike the size of the phone. So if there is anyone out there that did make the switch: is it worth selling this Note and buying the S4 outright?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] stevehkim:
There are some people that swear the Note 2 is better. I have both in my home. Used both side by side for days. Just the size of the Note 2 alone makes me gag. I love my S4. No comparison in my OPINION. That's just me. Just the fluidity and functions alone are so much better. The screen is absolutely brilliant. Once custom roms come along it'll be nuff said.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rexxcastle:
I Upgraded to the S4 from the Note 2. The issues i had with the note were that even with its size i still could not use it as an e-reader/tablet like i wanted too, i also did not use the spen nearly as much as it was made for. With that said i had no reason to stay with a larger device. On top of the screen and camera on the S4 i am able to carry it much more comfortable in my pocket because of the lightweight slim frame.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Springy_Minaj:
Thanks guys, the unfortunate thing is I'm on Verizon and I'm probably going to be looking at a couple months before they can crack the bootloader and custom ROMs are actually available.

Bootloader is already cracked. We're all patiently waiting for you Verizon guys so all of us can get some custom roms.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] theraker007:
I switched from the note 2. The only reason i really did it was because someone offered me $400 for my note 2. I had an upgrade so I pocketed $200. Other than that.. I don't think the upgrade is really significant. Especially when the note 2 gets most of the S4 functions.

.For me in Pakistan M250K UB23 give me loud volume during calls but edge dsnt work on this modem.i also tried xxlp1 people say it gives best signals but for me problem of low voice during calls remained so i choosed to remain on m250k ub23.you can try those and some other which i mentioned and which are reviewed on this webpage.i think for me m250k ub23 works well bcoz my i9100 is korean version and not the international or european version.

I bet I'm not the only one that finds the Menupop sound VERY annoying, specially in a crowded area. You need to do something on the XDA and you click the start button (CLICK!) and the crowd goes silent for a sec and turns to you, wondering wth is going on.

So, anyway of turning this sound off? renaming or deleting MenuPop.wav doesn't work. For some odd reason Microsoft has made this sound "an integral part of the pocket pc operating system".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Robson:
you can disable this by pressing "settings" -> "sounds and notifications" -> then uncheck the box of "events" from the enable sounds for"...right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Calavaro:
What else does this turn off? It seems to turn off a lot of sounds, and not only the click and pop sounds.

Thanks though. :)

from what i remember it turns of the menu sounds, the clicking sounds when you press an app and other related items. it doesn't turn off the alarms, sms notifications, calendar / task notices, etc.

Well strange thing happened. Received my SIM card replacement and when inserted in to the phone it asked me if want to install latest settings and services, so I hit yes and phone restarted and all my widgets were gone.

I usually don't push apps but I have been searching for this one for months and finally found it. Its so *unique* and I'm so impressed I feel that you all should know about it. Its called Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect and is a market available XDA member created KB HID driver and HID profile in combination with root that implements and event-driven (re)connection function.

What all this does is obviously connect your keyboard but what is *unique* about this app is IT RECONNECTS YOUR KEYBOARD AUTOMATICALLY JUST BY TOUCHING ANY KEY AFTER A TIMEOUT...EVERY TIME. I have tried at least 10 different BT KB apps none of which do this. Everytime my keyboard use to disconnect after a timeout I would either have to toggle BT or enter BT settings and manually force a reconnect. Since I've installed this app I haven't had to do either of these and actually haven't even opened BT settings. Whatever shortcomings the OS has in not typically being able to automatically facilitate reconnecting your keyboard when you type something this brilliant dev has engineered the *magic* driver which circumvents the OS and solves the problem. The cumulative time and hassle this saves a user is more than noteworthy. This app is on my top 10 list.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] sPEADy:
Thanks for your quick reply. I have checked USB Debugging, Debugging over network is unchecked, Apps over USB checking is unchecked.

It should be right or maybe I am wrong.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] sPEADy:
With the Following Process it worked out how to install the unsigned apps.

Here are a couple of different options to try.

For both options you will need to put the gallery apk into the same directory as your sdk install. (if you don't know what this is try to pull a file from your device and see where it ends up. Mine is /AndroidSDK/tools because I installed the SDK in the /AndroidSDK directory on my PC)

with all of the commands to type below ignore the single quotes (')

*Install from PC*

1) connect your phone and make sure adb can detect it.

- Launch command prompt

- Navigate to your sdk directory

- type 'adb devices' - you should now see your device listed.

2) Go back to the command prompt and type 'adb install [apk name.apk]

3) You should now see a success message, if you it fails try my other option below.

*

Manually place APK into /system/app*

1) connect your phone and make sure adb can detect it.

- Launch command prompt

- Navigate to your sdk directory

- type 'adb devices' - you should now see your device listed.

2) push gallery apk to your sd card.

-type 'adb push [apk name.apk] /sdcard/[apk name.apk]

3) Launch a second command prompt

-type 'adb shell'

-type 'su'

-type 'mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system'

4) go back to first command prompt

-type 'adb shell'

-type 'su'

-type 'cd /system/app'

-type 'cp /sdcard/[apk name.apk] [apk name.apk]'

-command prompt will show 'cp /sdcard/[apk name.apk] [apk name.apk]'

-type 'exit' (this will get you out of su)

-type 'exit' again (this should get you out of adb shell)

-type 'exit' again (this should close the command prompt)

5) go back to first command prompt

-type 'exit' (this will get you out of su)

-type 'exit' again (this should get you out of adb shell)

-type 'adb reboot' (this will reboot your phone)

-type 'exit' again (this should close the command prompt)

You may not need to do this in 2 command prompts, but for some reason I've had issue using just one before.

one of these should work.

Thanks to ezun for so detailed post.
