WiFi continuous scanning problem appears to be with WPA authentication. On my router I was using WPA TKIP and a 63 character passphrase. Copying the phrase into the wireless settings wouldn't allow my N1 to connect. I didn't have this problem with EPE54B. I noticed when inputting a shorter phrase, the wifi would actually attempt to connect. I changed the password to something shorter and now the wifi is appearing to stay connected (20 Minutes so far with no drop).
Did your wifi stay connected?

So after you change your wpa key to be shorter, do you see any other networks?

I still see no networks.

My 3g speeds have been atrocious since doing this. The best I have ever got since then has been 1000 download. It is very commonly 400, 300, 200, for a half an hour I even saw a 5! 5!

Wifi works smooth as it always did.

I tried switching to frf85b (I'm on ATT) and I had the exact same result. Slow 3g speeds.

In the #*#*4636*#*# menu, what should this be set to? WCDA preferred, or gsm auto perl? Does that have anything to do with it?

It's just dumb, that switching to Froyo killed my data connectivity.

Was it because I switched to an FRF83, which is on the tmobile network? Does switching to frf85b after that still have some handicap from the conversion?

I can't use the frf83 to frf85b upgrade that was posted as I have a custom recovery image now. Nandroid is cool and all, but I kinda wish I had not read this post. Silly google, making us ATT users think we were going to be left in the cold by, uh, leaving us in the cold.

FRF85 verification failed

I've got an At&T/Rogers N1 (ie EPE54B)

rooted, amon-ra recovery installed

I've been running FRF83 for the past week, and just tried install FRF85B

No matter what I do I keep on getting the "verification failed" error.

Things I've tried include
1. the update from FRF83-->FRF85
2. downgrading back to EPE54, then applying the EPE54-->85 official manual update
3. I've downloaded the "signed-passion-ota-42745.dc39ca1f" which is supposed to work for all versions

no matter what, I keep on getting the "verification failed" message. I can only get up to FRF83

BTW, radio version 4.06.00.12_7
Kernel 2.6.32.9-27227

Any help would be appreciated. I've been trying for almost 2 hours now and going crazy.

Can you link me to the original recovery image? I can't seem to be sure that what I'm using is the correct one.
1. Links the ROM
.gadgetsdna.com/nexus-one-epe54b-android-2-1-leaked/1161/
(add the www in front of address - I can't post the actual link)

Unzip with WinRar - you can't just unzip in windows.

2. Tutorial for flashing phone, including recovery
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850

Good luck.

Let me just make sure.

The ONLY way to update to FRF91 from FRF83 that was originally EPE54B and was updated to FRF83 with this guide is to remove amon-ra's recovery?

Is there another simpler way? One that can help me keep Amon-ra's recovery?

Thanks.

Any chance for an answer here?
If I'm being a total noob let me know...
I've ran some searches in the forum and I've found some solutions that require a wipe, this is something I'm trying to avoid... so... bump?

Thanks.

Crash?

Hi to everyone,

after the rooting procedure by installing the nexus addon, the phone is reboting and standing since 1 hour with a black screen and the "X" with the locker down it:confused:
I tried to make hard reset but nothing to do :(
Any idea?
