I just made a dump of my /persist if you need a copy of it.

Great! Right now I don't need it, but maybe someone who sees this thead will!

It will be great if you upload the files!

Yes please post it here , I think my download speed is a bit slow ... it was awesome before flashing carbon nightly rom OR formating modem / presist folder... this might help ???

This was obtained by doing going into CWM Touch and typing (via adb shell) "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 of=/external_sd/mmcblk0p22.img" so we'll just reverse the process to flash it to a phone

copy the attached image to the rood directory of the phone's external_sd
reboot into CWM
hook up to usb
go to Mounts and Storage and mount the external_sd
open Command Prompt/Terminal
"adb shell"
"su" (might not be necessary...CWM adb shell might be root by default)
"dd if=/external_sd/mmcblk0p22.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22"
reboot phone

I also have a dump of my /modem, but that's a little over 100mb. Try this and if you need my /modem dump as well, let me know.

Hi, as I've tried all the flavors of Custom ROMs offered for ADH, I commented that what happened to me the same format the modem.

I solved back to Stock Rom MR using RSD. The only thing is that I lost ROOT, but that's no problem today there are ways to recover faster.

Try this is the fastest.

orangzeb · Oct 12, 2013

that procedure is a bit complicated . please if you can upload your modem dump and prodecedure , I don't know if my download speed is a bit slow or not... but that will confirm it... Thanks...

upload to zippyshare.....

Need some config files...

Can any of you send me these files? I have the

/** Configuration file name */
#define CONFIG_FILE "/data/hostapd/hostapd.conf"

/** Default configuration file path */
#define DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE_PATH "/persist/qcom/softap/hostapd_default.conf"

/** Accept list file name */
#define ACCEPT_LIST_FILE "/data/hostapd/hostapd.accept"

/** Deny list file name */
#define DENY_LIST_FILE "/data/hostapd/hostapd.deny"

/** Default Ini file */
#define DEFAULT_INI_FILE "/persist/qcom/softap/qcom_cfg_default.ini"

I have this file:

/** Ini file */
#define INI_FILE "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/qcom_cfg.ini"

But listing it anyway as I believe this is part of the configuration files needed for tethering.

U dont kno how much i love u right now lol

mauchito said:
IT WORKED!! IT FREAKING WORKED!!!

Here is what I did:

First of all, download the file that I attached.

You need root access!

Extract it with 7Zip or Winrar.

Use a file manager like Root Explorer (I couldn't make it work with ASTRO)

In the file manager, give it root access.

Copy the unzipped .bin file to your phone.

With the file manager, paste it on "/persist"

If you can't copy it there, you will need to set RW permission to /persist

If there is another file with the same name already, delete it.

Reboot phone.

Enjoy!!!

Thank you for all the people that assisted me in this thread! If you have any questions, feel free to ask! :laugh:

PD: This just works with Android 4.2.2, it didn't worked with 4.3. If I find a solution, I will update!

Mannnn... U dont even kno how much i love you right now lol. :highfive: If you were a woman i would make passionate love to u right now till the next day lol. And i am not gay, am jus superrrrrr excited that this fixed my phone. I been wiping and loading **** from like 3 weeks now tryin to fix it. Up till this day u are still saving lives lol... android lives that is lol

THANKS MUCH AGAIN... I had that file on my computer but jus didnt kno how to get it into persists floder. Was usin Astro but that was working, reading ur post i used Root Explorer, Install Stock Firmware with RSD and restarted. As the phone start i saw "Wifi Networks Available"!!

Trying fo fix an error I accidentally formated /modem in my Atrix HD. Please help me, I don't have phone service right now! What do I do???

SOLVED

When you do have this issue, first of all you need to flash with RSD Lite. Check this thread and follow the steps (Say thanks to the OP): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2231249

When you have phone service active, you will notice that Wi-Fi is not working.

Here is what I did to make it work:

First of all, download the file that I attached.

You need root access!

Extract it with 7Zip or Winrar.

Use a file manager like Root Explorer (I couldn't make it work with ASTRO)

In the file manager, give it root access.

Copy the unzipped .bin file to your phone.

With the file manager, paste it on "/persist"

If you can't copy it there, you will need to set RW permission to /persist

If there is another file with the same name already, delete it.

Reboot phone.

Enjoy!!!

it worked like a charm thanks alot :good:

Thank you!! I tried flashing back to stock with RSD multiple times and did CWM restores several times. Looks like you saved me a whole lot of troubleshooting.
Note to self: don't format something if you don't know what it is...duh (/persist)

The same happened to me. I felt like a dumb because I had the phone for less than a month when that happened, lol.

Thanks so much! This restored my /persist partition that I mistakenly formated with CWM when I was cleaning everything for an upgrade.

I used slightly different steps. When in recovery with CWM would not let me 'adb shell' into the system.

My step:
With the phone in android OS (not bootloader or recovery)

copy the mmcblk0p22.img image to the rood directory of the phone's external_sd
hook up to usb
"adb shell" (make sure you have root access)
"unmount /persist" (not sure if this is necessary)
"dd if=/external_sd/mmcblk0p22.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22" (I also verified the 'persist' was the /dev/block/mmcblk0p22 before dd'ing)
reboot phone

For me this fixes several things. My wifi now works with WPA2 and 802.1x. I think it will also fix other thing as there is a DRM folder.

Thanks for the help!!!

boot failed

skeevydude said:
For us WiFi not working is usually one of two things: wrong WiFi module or your WiFi chip is broke. /modem doesn't have anything to do with WiFi working or not since its nothing more than the radio the phone uses to connect to cell networks. I'm gonna assume you're fully bootloader unlocked, if not, do that first.

Download Mex Retail and extract it somewhere

Copy our fastboot binaries into the extracted folder

Rename the fastboot to snap-fastboot (so you don't use another fastboot; just to be safe)

Open a terminal/command prompt pointing to the extracted folder

Put the phone in fastboot mode

Do these commands exactly in order

snap-fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

snap-fastboot flash sbl2 sbl2.mbn

snap-fastboot flash sbl3 sbl3.mbn

snap-fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn

snap-fastboot flash tz tz.mbn

snap-fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn

snap-fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

snap-fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

snap-fastboot erase modemst1

snap-fastboot erase modemst2

snap-fastboot flash logo logo.bin

snap-fastboot flash boot boot.img

snap-fastboot flash devtree device_tree.bin

snap-fastboot flash system system.img

snap-fastboot flash cdrom cdrom

snap-fastboot erase tombstones

snap-fastboot erase cache

snap-fastboot erase userdata

Notice how I left the recovery partition out.....make sure you're using the latest CWM Touch...anyways....after all that, boot directly from fastboot to CWM Touch and the just exit. It'll prompt you about not having root (say yes) and then about fixing install-recovery.sh (say yes again). That'll put you back on fully rooted stock. If WiFi doesn't work now then you're phone might need fixing.

I did leave out one thing that could be an issue -- if your last stock rom was ICS based then you might just be having issues with the ICS devtree on a JB rom. For me 4.3 PAC only booted once with it and was seriously wonky when it did work. Doing the above will ensure that you are using the appropriate crap needed for JB stock and 4.2/4.3 custom roms.

Hi! I tried this method after trying RSD Lite. When I try flash boot.img it failed. Show "Preflash validation failed". I used (fastboot oem fb_mode_clear) before flashing the boot. I'm trying ATT Stock ROMs (ICS & JB). The phone is stuck at ATT logo and is not bootloader unlocked.
What can I do?. RSD Lite stop at the same step (boot.img).
Thanks!

Flash a compatible fastboot with your locked bootloader phone.....you can only downgrade or flash non-carrier fastboots with an unlocked phone. Whatever stock you were running before you started this is what you need to flash. Nothing else will work.
