Wifi not toggling on? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having issues with the wifi toggle button on the notification bar?
It works fine to turn wifi off, but keeps erroring out when I try to turn it on. This regardless of whether I turned it off from the bar or via Tasker widget.
I wonder if this is related to the GPS toggle bug.

ROM, Radio, and Kernel?

i used to have this too.. that was with stock ebo1.. then i went to superclean, it disapeared, then superclean 2.9.1 it came back, and with 2.9.2 it appears to be gone again.. weird.

Im on sc 2.9.2 and i have the same issue. I just reboot the phone reboot the phone and it works. Or i just use the main settings to turn it on and off

FWIW I'm on SC2.9.2 (modded), imnuts -50, and EB01 modem... But I think it's something in the basic Froyo framework. The GPS issue is, I believe, across ROMS.

Fixing permissions seems to have corrected it. I'll update my mod post.

I have the same issue, with the debloated/deodexed froyo and the EC10 kernel (and had it prior to EC10).
Are you saying you never see the problem enabling from in the menus? The log output shows it's failing when it attempts to load the driver, so I wouldn't think it would matter how it was toggled?
Very annoying. I started a thread on this as well a few weeks ago:

if you are running DI01, you will be fine.

dj05 gpssetup.apk?
Holy $h!T! This is the real deal GPS fix! I can lock 3 sats indoors, in a basement - never locked indoors before with this phone. Furthermore, I can lock 7 sats just walking outside. Gets initial lock in like 10 seconds from a cold start. Did have to shut off my wifi for some reason before it would turn on GPS at all. And, once GPS is turned on, the toggle in the pulldown for GPS stops working, always shows it as being turned on. Have to enable/disable it thru the settings->Location menu.
But that's a small trade off for how well this works!
My baseband is dio1 so i am downloading now.

Worked for me. Installation was a little scary, got stuck on bootscreen but a battery pull later, it loaded up just fine. Locking onto GPS sats indoors and outdoors very fast. Rebooted a couple of times and it locked on again very well.
GPS icon in the notification bar acts a little weird when trying to turn it off/on, but if you must toggle it, the "Power Control" widget does the trick. I never turn mine off since it doesn't run unless you use an app that utilizes it.
Perfect! Thanks Adrynalyne!!!
Initially looking good! Got a lock fairly quickly indoors. Will restart and test it outside. Thanks!
Edit tested outside after a reboot and lock was instant! This is the best fix by far!
Edit 2: Tested while moving on the road. Lock was slower, but where before GPS Test showed 10 in view and maybe 0-1 in use, the number in use climbed steadily and lock was about 30 seconds
For those of you noting the inability to turn on/off gps through notifications, I believe that is an issue with the latest StupidFast kernel. I run a stock system and my friend runs SuperDark and we both had that issue, after I reverted to an older StupidFast kernel I got my notification GPS control back.
Yup this works! I got a lock within 10 seconds indoors. Thanks for this.

Good call. That's what I was using! Thanks!
hey guys, I wanna try this out but 1 question-
Is this fix pulled from the DJ05 release, or is it a mod of the DI01? How does it work? thanks

[MOD][4.1.2011] Fixed (shortened) touchkey backlights (Powerwashed ED05 8.31.2011)

The one thing I've hated about DJ05, DL09, and now our Froyo releases is that the timeouts on the capacitive touchkey backlights have gotten longer and longer. In DI01 it was a couple of seconds, in DJ05 it was the length of your screen timeout, and by EB01 and beyond it's now the length of your screen timeout AND reset every time you touch *anything*.
Well, I've finally gotten around to figuring out where the change was (setScreenOffTimeoutsLocked() in PowerManagerService.smali in services.jar) and modding it back. Now, as in DI01, the keys will only light up for a few seconds after you press one. I haven't reverted the recent change of regular screen touches resetting this time after the touchkeys have gone on, though: since the baseline is very short, this isn't a big issue.
Note that the version of services.jar on which this is based is from Super Clean 2.9.2. However, a diff seems to show that the only difference between adrynalyne's services.jar and the stock EB01 is the inclusion, in the former, of the battery notification/data throttling removal mods. So it *should* work with any deodexed EB01-based framework, though I've only tested on the self-customized SC292 I'm running.
The mod does *not* interfere with BLN.
UPDATE 4/28: I've removed the previous EC01/ED01 versions because they were turning on the lights a bit too often (screen press as well as button press). Instead, here are two fixed Edify-script versions for ED01.
Evil Fascination/stock ED01 folks should use shortlight-evil341, which basically just includes the light fix and the sbrissen mods. Community ROM folks should use shortlight-community12, which has a couple of other options unique to that framework.
The new files include a permissions fix, so just install the zip and reboot. (Those installing the original file -- SC292/EB01 and Amend only -- still need to manually mount /data and /dbdata and run the fix permissions script in CWM 2.5 after installation.) First boot will take a while.
UPDATE 5/17: From version 3.5 forward, Evil Fascination folks should use the community zip as well. Evil341 is still good for stock ROM users.
UPDATE 6/13: New version (shortlight-cROM2) uploaded for Community ROM 2.0. Edify only, like the 4/28 version.
UPDATE 8/31: New version for Powerwashed (ED05). Edify only.
To be honest I like it when the keys are lit up. Especially in the dark and you're trying to hit one of those buttons. But I do agree that they shouldn't be on after you lock the screen....

Do your keys really stay lit up after you lock the screen? What rom are you using these days?
I'm running Adyn's latest superclean (2.92) and jt's ec10 kernel (TW_kernel-0327-2) and haven't seen this issue. I'm wondering if there is a bug somewhere that is causing this issue with other people.
I don't have a problem with their time staying on..I do wish they weren't so bright..
Has anyone noticed that the in-call "buzz" is related to the soft-key lights being on? I haven't used a Touchwiz ROM in a while (including Superclean), but this is something I've noticed running other ROMs.
This fix might help with that.
Awesome!! Thanks, I can't stand the long backlight time. This is perfect!

Yep.
It's funny, a bunch of people like the long lights -- and it's their complaints, I think, that made Samsung edit the behavior in later firmwares. But I'm also sure there are a bunch of people who don't, so now there's a choice.
I also think if the lights were as muted as they are on, say, a Captivate, things might be different.
I tried this out. If I wake up my phone the lights stay off but as soon as I press one they never go off until the phone goes to sleep again.

Yea, the lights help locate the buttons in the dark, but they are so bright that they almost overpower the screen. As handy as they are, I'd rather do without them all together personally. But this is a great compromise.

Yikes, you wiped data!
Don't do that, this is a tiny framework change. (I think I'll add that to the OP.)
Not sure what could be off -- I assume the framework didn't change between 2.9.1 and 2.9.2. You used Red clockwork and not Orange, right? Maybe try reflashing...
(Since you're also in the SC thread, note that flashing any ROM will undo this change.)

My mistake, I didn't wipe data, only cache and dalvik (that's what I get for typing in a hurry).
I have Red clockwork, the latest from 3/30. I'll try again after my battery finishes charging.
Bizarrely, the lights seem to revert to "always on after touch" mode while the screen is in power-low super dim mode. Not sure if or how I can do anything about this.

I bet that was why it wasn't working for me. I was only at about 5% battery when I tried this.

A few bugs with Trigger ROM v2.9.2

I've been running the new Trigger 2.9.2 ROM for a couple days now and it's got a few bugs I was wondering if someone could tell the ROM vendor about. (I'm new to XDA and I don't have 10 posts yet so I can't post directly on the thread.)
-The battery often displays the incorrect percentage remaining (if you reboot often on the ROM it will change as much as 30% either going up or down, and will sort of hang at that percentage until you reboot) (this happens in battery widgets, the "about settings" menu, and on the battery icon in the notification).
-There is no voicemail icon
Suggestion for update:
-BLN kernel mod?
P.S. I am NOT trolling here. Trigger is awesome and I am trying to get some advice about some serious problems I am having with the ROM... and yes I have tried wiping the cache/dalvik cache and fixing permissions and disabling and re-enabling voodoo.

You can flash one of the overstock kernels and have BLN.

It sounds like the 2 bugs you speak of aren't bugs otherwise they would affect everyone and many more people would be complaining.
The battery percentage is the reason why they give specific instructions on flashing with your battery at 100% as well as wiping battery stats at 100% and going through at least 3 full battery cycles. (Full charge then full discharge)
Voicemail icon is not showing probably because voicemail is not set correctly. Did you odin to JFD before you flashed?
If not it could have some strange hiccups like this because of it. Or if you want to try and fix it yourself go to Settings, Call Settings, Voicemail and make sure your settings are correct.

Freezing or uninstalling Visual Voicemail will cause this.
Thanks guys. I'm pretty sure I odined to stock JFD before I flashed. Also, do you guys know why alarm clocks wouldn't be working correctly? I just found that out. Additionally, the phone no longer has the battery charging icon that shows up on the screen when the phone is off and plugged in.
I would download the rom again, odin to jfd and reflash with the fresh download of 2.9.2

I have this annoying bug in my Trigger 2.9.2. I think someone has the same issue as me in the forum but it seems not solved yet.
The bug is when you make call to USSD code. The notification sound volume will changed back to 30% (Default) no matter how many times you setup the notification volume level in the sound setting. However, SMS notification didn't affected at all.
Don't know whether this only happen to 2.2 ROM but I tested some 2.2.1 ROM it seems no sound came out & the volume level is the same as you set.
Anyone has this issue too?

[Q] Screen won't sleep sometimes (CleanROM 2.9.5)

My screen occasionally will not sleep. It does not even Dim.
I don't have any background apps installed like setcpu, oc etc.
Just straight apps. Calculator, weather bug (with backgroud updates turned off), etc.
It does not happen all the time. Just occassionally.
Sometimes even after a reboot it will just stay on and not sleep.
Some times just hitting the power button to force sleep fixes it. I wake it and then it goes to sleep fine.
I posted this problem in CleanROM thread and Scott (the CleanROM author) said he occasionally sees it to and does not know the cause.
I was curious if this occurred in other ROMs and if anyone might know the cause.
I'm running the Kernel that came with Clean ROM 2.9.5 by mwalt2 (with the DIM buttons and always on until cleared notification LED).
I also tried restoring CleanROM 2.5 and it did it too (I think it uses the same kernel).
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Try reflashing the rom after doing a full wipe, and don't try to restore anything. I would also maybe try out a different kernel and see if that doesn't fix the issue.

I never restore anything after a wipe. Defeats the purpose of a "wipe"
I think it might be the Kernel.
People are to quick to say, I have no idea, so wipe it.
If I had to do that every time someone at work had a computer problem I'd be fired.

[q] ics leak cleanROM 4.0 save power mode?

What does the save power switch do in the quick settings menu?
I tried turning it in but didn't notice a difference.
I'm still using cleanrom 4.0 with the leaked firmware
It basically has default settings to turn off stuff that you probably already have turned off... wifi, GPS, screen to 40%, 4G, etc.. You can go into the power save settings and adjust stuff that you want to happen during the mode, but I already leave that stuff off to begin with.
Mine is still using 4g and GPS is enabled. Also didn't notice any difference with my screen brightness.
I already have wifi disabled.
maybe its not working with my setup

It adjust the sleep policy to shut off everything but data while it sleeps and makes it sleep faster. At least on BAMF it does sure it's the same on clean Rom. Also makes it sleep sooner like 15 mins instead of 30 or something like that
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
I noticed that the newest leak doesn't have the power saver menu in the power settings. I think that was removed this go-around. The quick setting doesn't seem to do anything anymore... pretty sure it's just a holdover from previous tweak menus.
There used to be an icon that would show up in the status bar when you turned it on... kind of a bummer, I thought the feature was great, I used it all the time when I was going to be out for the night. It really helped to slow down drain (and the responsiveness of the phone).
