Guest sjaakiespeelman Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 sorry, i mean t&l rom, and ys, it gives no proplem for me But i quite like the gingeroonay very much, and don't really understand that kernel stuf.. etc, but still sucks that wifi doesn't work, tried wifi fixer and stuf Is there a way to reinstall wifi settings or reset wifi ..??
Guest sjaakiespeelman Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 What if i flashed TechnoLover's Kernel Edition 1.1 (17.11.2011) .. should that be an option ? can i flash that using recovery 3.0 > flash from zip??

Guest racoq Posted November 27, 2011 Report Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) I had the exact same problem you are experiencing. I manage to find a workaround: Install "script manager" from the Market without the quotes: https://market.andro...s.scriptmanager Open it and tap the menu button > New > New script and give it a name and let it open with "SM editor" After the line #!/system/bin/sh type this: chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant click menu > save now from the list find the file you just created and click and hold pressed over the file until the menu is open. Choose: Open As...> script executable click hover the help button, to see the help about the icons: basically after memorizing what each button does, you have to select "run as root" (the icon is identical to the super user icon if you have your device rooted), and the other option is "run at boot" (the shape of the icon is a mechanical wheel). After that every time you start your android, wifi will work because that script is runned at startup. Be careful not to remove by mistake the file of the script from your SD (you will need to have it their for this to work) Hope it helps! Edited November 28, 2011 by racoq
Guest sjaakiespeelman Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 so it will be like: #!/system/bin/sh adb shell chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant ??
Guest sjaakiespeelman Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 it says adb not found...
Guest racoq Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) sorry my mistake. edit the file and replace the line with: chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant it shoud look like: #!/system/bin/sh chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant don't forget the run as root and run at boot options of the script i've edited the previous post to correct the mistake Edited November 28, 2011 by racoq
Guest sjaakiespeelman Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 You're my hero! GREAT ... THANKS A LOT :D :D sorry my mistake. edit the file and replace the line with: chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant it shoud look like: #!/system/bin/sh chown 1010.1010 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant don't forget the run as root and run at boot options of the script i've edited the previous post to correct the mistake
Guest racoq Posted November 28, 2011 Report Posted November 28, 2011 You're my hero! GREAT ... THANKS A LOT :D :D No problem, i'm glad it worked for you! At least it saved you from the work i had and search i had to do to get it working. Enjoy ;)
Guest darren_ Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 No problem, i'm glad it worked for you! At least it saved you from the work i had and search i had to do to get it working. Enjoy ;) I've also been having problems with frequent disconnects - hopefully this fix will work. Am I correct in thinking that the 'wpa_supplicant' should be 'wpa_supplicant.conf' as the former was not found when I tried to run the script. Thanks, Darren.
