I know, but I'm talking about a custom ROM that I am creating.
Wifi never works upon multiple hard resets/wipes.

No, I wasn't.

Screen periodicaly blinks ON and OFF
GT-I5800 FROYO.XXJPA
After additional factory data reset (it was made with keyboard code, because hard reset buttons combination does not wok) and first clean connection to Google account without any additional installs to phone, it began to blink every 2 seconds. Google account was changed to different one.
On locked mode phone's screen lights ON and OFF non stop every 2 seconds and like asks to unlock. It lights several seconds.
On unlocked mode after screen time out period, screen goes off, but after second of time switches lighting on again and does not lock again.
I seems that phone tries to lock, but can't do that for some reason.
It drains battery very fast way.
On first booting of phone after factory reset, I did not noticed such blinking.
I've noticed, that phone screen started to blink after the first contact was entered to address book and after WiFi and 3G data transfer connected.
I've tried to switch off WiFi and 3G/GPRS data transfer - did not help after that. Screen blinks. So it seems it is not Google account problem.
Maybe contacts? Or phone service download something in background from network? Incredible.
Before factory reset and phone user (and Google account) change my phone with this firmware version FROYO.XXJPA has no such problem. JPA is a little buggy, but it worked. Currently screen blinks and I have no idea where is the problem. It does not look like it could hardware problem.
One additional notice: phone stills has battery problem. It shows that battery dries out, phone switches off. It to switch it on again, battery indicator shows at least 50% again.
Last step what I could try - flash another firmware version and format SD card.
Thank You.

Does anyone know what is the maximum data transfer speed of the Galaxy 3 memory card reader? Is it worth to purchase a faster memory card than Class 4?

I am having a usb problem. When I connect the phone, the phone acts like it is connected to a charger, I can even change usb settings (including development) while connected without it telling me that it cant be changed while usb is connected. Windows recognizes it under devices and printers under the unspecified segment and says its and unkown composite device, kies starts trying to connect. I'm a little puzzled. I tried the basics. Rebooting, different ports, different computers (even though i dont see how that could help).
I'm using rooted jpf + lagfix 2 and modified jpb kernel
I'll probably just reflash if nobody has any idea

well I know what you said works, however that was not the issue with my phone. the thing is my phone was acting like it was connected to a charger, not usb. soo there were no such notifications, no signs on the phone that it was connected to usb. That was my problem, not not knowning how to use my phone.

lol, something was wrong with my phone, that is why i asked, lmao. what you said happens when everything is working correctly, and lol, I know charging happens, however that is all that happened, like I said it acted as though it was hooked up to a charger, not usb. Which obviously means charging + no usb stuff. I said that I could change usb(including debugging) settings while connected, which you shouldn't be able to do while connected to usb. You just misunderstood the problem I had

Have you tried the suggestion at least?
Look for the original ROM of your device and find a WINDOWS XP computer and try to reflash with those 2 as suggested from above.
i want Try Mamaich Method but dont recognize the usb port.
Do you know?
Thanks

I don't think it would work. The Mamaich method is for a different problem. Yours clearly is due to Windows Vista incompatibility. I had read a couple of this type of thread in the past and the only solution was already given to you.
do you know where is the original rom?

I have a qtek9000
Before I tried my 1st upgrade I download the official ROM just in case.
I thought I had it but I can't find it. I have one copy on the PC at work, but I will only return there next Wednesday, so no big help.
I remember see a post were a member informed that he had an ftp with all the ROMS. Maybe some one remember the address. If I get, it i will post it.
Cheers.

i was trying to upgrade rom downloaded from o2 for my xda 2i i have same problem as previous guy i have tried to load from windows xp machine but get connection error 101 my screen is blank apart from usb and v1.01 can anyone help?
sounds to me like it might be as simple as a dead battery.
1. what happens when you try to charge it with the wall charger?
2. have you tried switching batteries?
3. you still haven't said what you were doing with the device before this happend
4. this is totally unrelated to WM6 Forum, you shouldn't have posted this here
when you put your universal on usb with a pc on xp there is a detection? or not and are you sur that there isn t any write on the screen .

It do not enter boot loader with light + power + reset and show no signs of life.
The light is off.when i push reset button flash the red light.
When connected to USB, PC reports "USB device not recognised"
I want a original rom for qtek9000 for test.
Anybody have this rom?
When I bricked my XDA Exec by means of hung program during the upgrade, I had: no reaction to normal Reset, no entry to Bootloader - basically a brick.
I did LeftSoftKey + RightSoftKey + Reset to do a *hard* reset (everything was lost anyway), and after that I could see "Serial... v1.01" Bootloader notification. When you connected that to a computer, it changed to "USB... v1.01" prompt.
So I just took JWright's image, and re-flashed it.
Guess what? It detected I had no image/extRom/RadioRom whatsoever then offered to re-flash them. I knew I'm OK when Radio upgrade progress indicator started to move.
It took me to get to another machine first, however. My Vista machine totally screwed up things, whereas my home XP managed to do the job.
Sitting on JWright's 2.02.02 now - very thoroughly made ROM, love Voice Command integrated with it instead of crappy Cyberon's software.

[Q] PC does not regconize my captivate !

Hi everyone,
My friend brought me a SS captivate at&t, it gotting bootloop AND PC DOES NOT RECOGNIZE EVERYTHING ABOUT it, recovery mode not work. i tried everything but no result, different oem usb cables, different pc with different os, it just charged the phone, nothing else. (not because of driver, my cappy works fine with these pc). I sent it to a few repair center, they used the Riff box (something like that) to flash direct to phone's mainboard but couldnt save it. Now it still hanging in at&t logo and just only charging when connecting to pc
Many thanks to any ideas can make it revive. Im in Vietnam with no at&t store here. Sorry about my bad english. Please help me!

HTC Sensation wont connect to PC (only charge)

Hey, i have had my sensation about 2 months, now when i connect it to a pc it dosnt ask what connection type to choose, it only charges, in the menu it is set to ask me about connection type, while connected to pc there is now no icon in the notification area (used to say 'charge only' or 'disk drive') even when rebooted into 4ext recovery and mounted/toggle usb connection, it dosnt connect as a disk drive like it has always done in the past, it only charges, i have tried 3 different pc's and 3 different micro usb cables, also have tried updating the firmware to 3.24 and installed ICS with the same result, i think its a hardware issue? last time it worked was 3 days ago connected via usb to a jvc headunit listening to my music files.
Weird problem!
Maybe you could try with a different SD card to eliminate the possibility of it being an SD card problem?
If it still doesn't work with another SD Card it may well be a hardware problem.

Well I had the same problem with the custom ROM I use.
Installing it clean with a full wipe solved it.
It is definitely NOT the pc, laptop or SD-card.
Are you on a custom ROM?
- Yes then install clean with full wipe. (make a nandroid backup!!!) and install all apps new.
- No then do a total reset (reset to factory settings) and do all the install stuff new. After that you can also install with RUU your ROM designated for your device.
You will see your USB connection will show up!!
same here
i have exactly the same problem as described in op.
will try flashing a new rom then also; first have to buy a flashcard reader then to get my new rom ON the sd card....
or do you think a nandroid restore would fix the problem? will try that first.
Will report back
The nandroid might restore the problem.I'd try it first.if not , then do the full wipe reinstall as said above .if at the time of the nandroid back up it was working is a good possibility it will fix the issue. Hope this helps!

I am having the same problem ..... Dont feel like wiping and going stock.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA
Couple of tips that might fix your problem.
If you're running aokp make sure you disable fast charge.
Turn on mtp in USB computer connection settings. I have trouble accessing the options from most custom roms, so a little work around is to install either apex or nova, long press add to home screen - shortcuts - activities - scroll down to Settings - USB computer connection(com.android.settings.usbsettings) . Tap it and you should get a shortcut. Select mtp.
Ultimately, the thing that fixed my same issue was getting a different USB cable lol. You can also try different ports on your computer.
Good luck, hope you can find a solution to your problem! If all else fails, you can try using airdroid for transfer over Wi-Fi
Anyone find a fix on this , mine has started doing this yesterday :crying:
Tried 3 different cables , different usb ports , different sd card , formatting sdcards in 4xt recovery , reflashing firmware.... also htc sync re installed for drivers (htc sync does not see the phone), adb re installed (adb does not see the phone??)
dont think its the rom as adb cannot see the phone in fastboot
anyone any other ideas , tried ninjasalad suggestion on enabling mtp also ??
I think you're fine. I had this problem after flashing ARHD 6.6.X, OrdDriod series, and PkMn series. What I did was the following:
Went into settings. Connect to PC. Unchecked the "ask me" , Restart phone. Then checked "ask me" again. Lastly, restarted phone again.
After doing that a couple times, it worked for me. Maybe you can try that.
This happened to me as well. I think it's a hardware problem

check these
make sure you have enabled usb debugging mode from settings
install htc drivers
install htc sync(i am not sure if it is necessary)
use 2.0 usb ports
use the original usb cable if you aren't using it yet
wont work, screen broken

I can't do that because to enable usb debugging mode you have to use the phone and the phone's screen is completely broken and there's no way to even get into it using the touch screen.

My problem is that I'm able to go in NVFlash mode and do the G2X_V21E_00_NVFlash or the One-Click-G2x-recovery but when I try the S/W Upgrade mode, the G2x screen show me the S/W Update image but no devices are found in Windows XP.
I tried with different cables and different PC (even MAC) but no sign of any device connected.
Of course the drivers are installed, if I connect the phone when Android boot up all the devices (modem, serial port, USB...) are properly found.
I probably have an half bricked USB port (I just replaced the hardware connector board, so HW is not the issue) since when the phone is running Android I'm not able to charge it.
To re-enable the charge I go in the hidden menu (1809#*999#) and switch Port Settings> from AP USB to AP UART
I really think is a BaseBand problem (I'm stuck with MAR 27 2011) but without S/W Update working I'm not able to update it!
Someone have suggestions?
Thanks.

battery isn't charging, USB doesn't work

hello guys,
i have 2 Problems with my galaxy R.
My mobilephone doesn't load the battery when i plug in the charger. If i shut down the phone and connect the charger, the phone goes on and the empty battery symbol is drawn an the screen and the refresh logo of the battery is shown. But after 1-2 second's the screen is black and the phone turn off, this repeats the whole time.
When i turn on the phone, it starts without problems, when i plug in the charger it does nothing. I tryed to plug in the charger during the night, and the pho73ne loadet from 59% to 73%.
I have the Galaxy R with 3 Branding (Firmware, which was installed, when i get my galaxy R), but i have rooted the phone and have clockworkMod 4.xxx.
Now, i wanted to flash the firmware again (for warranty, to delete root and clockworkmod), but i cannot connect my phone to the pc. When i plug in the usc cable, my notebook don't recognize my phone and the phone does nothing.
My question now is, how can i remove root and clockworkmod, so that i can give the phone to the shop for warranty?
I hope you have ideas for me, and sorry for my bad english, i'm from Austria
now i made a video...

Thank you too :good: your are a great help for me , but are this files the right ones for the XWLA4 Firmware (2.3.6, 3 Austria) ?
these files will work with all the ROMs
Sent from my GT-I9103 using XDA
Hey buddy! This is what exactly happened with me! This is a physical damage. So there's nothing you can do by flashing other ROMs or stock ROMs or so....
Check out my thread here:-

I've explained everything about my case and how I was able to revert back to my country's stock ROM, unroot the phone and revert back to stock recovery.
Then I gave my phone for repair to SSC and they told me that it's a physical damage. They changed the whole charging port of my phone. Took 3-4 days though. Depends on availability of that part.
And since my phone was in warranty and SSC guys are dumb, I got it done for FREE!!

Hi buddy, I appreciate that you haven't started a new thread. Could you tell me which language you know ? I am asking because then I could understand your issue clearly.
If you would have searched a bit you would have surely got the answer in the FAQ's post (in the newbie guide thread), check this out:
Q. My device is not being detected on being connected to my PC but I can charge it via the wall / normal charger ! What to do?
First of all check if you have the latest Samsung Kies software installed as it also installs the latest Samsung USB drivers along with it which are required to connect your device to the PC. If they are installed & still your PC doesn't detect the device then you probably have corrupted drivers. To resolve this follow these steps: Uninstall Samsung Kies / Samsung USB drivers currently installed => Restart your PC => Reinstall Samsung Kies / Samsung USB drivers.
Q. I can't charge my device & my device is not being detected after connecting to my PC & Odin is not detecting my device ! What to do?
(The solution is valid only if you are experiencing all of the above conditions simultaneously)
Checkout this thread which could help you: => [Partial Fix] Galaxy R not getting detected on PC nor charging via a charger. ​
Hope this helps.
