That's what I would try doing but I've tried so I think its a bad wifi file in the zip....

Have you read any of what I said? Its not a "bad" wifi file but a mismatched one. As the system modules (wifi) are located in the kernel, when you have a mismatched kernel wifi will fail to function properly for some people. Our phones are very forward compatible but fail to be very backwards compatible as slight changes are made to the source with each version. Especially the kernel with 2.2.2

How does that have to do with anything? Your saying if you upgrade to 2.2.2 stock and root, install recovery and flash a rom wifi wont work with this?
Oh wait nvm....
Just saw ur post saying he needs to put in 2.2.2 kernel...

If you think about it 2.2.2 was developed to be an update to existing phones to fix the random reboot issues that were occurring and at the same time they were shipping out new phones with it stock. So there would be no issue updating to 2.2.2 As it was meant to be a flashable update for existing phones anyhow.

Yea but all they changed in the 2.2.2 kernel was network stuff........well maybe that's why wifi doesn't work with a 2.2.1 kernel with a 2.2.2 rom and I'm sure if we changed the wifi file(s) it will work fine
 
sammyz said:
If you're on this rom then ur not running any of that xD you're just running the Titan rom, what's more important is what recovery you're using not ROM you came from...

im not on titan anymore when i found that the wifi didnt work i switched back to cyanogen 7.1 and im using CWM recovery

It wasn't just network stuff as the whole purpose was to fix random reboots
You will either have to revert to a stock 2.2.2 kernel or compile a new kernel if you'd like to OC. You can't really kang a kernel like ROMs lol.

Actually you can use bobzhome's kernel with just about any CM7 ROM, that's what I do for my port ROMS...
 
So, I've been following this, sort of, now for the last few days. What's this about wifi not working? I flashed it and it works just fine for me. My phone was a stock 2.2. I've had roms on my phone that are based on 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 and 2.3.x. Wifi has worked just fine for me on all these roms. Now I have had a 2.2.1 ROM and a version of bobzhome's gingerbread that wouldn't boot (I'm assuming it's because of the video driver and the touch screen).

Actually that version (2-2-12) BobZhomes CM7 I had the same problem, but he made that one again and put in in the posts, not on OP, and that one worked.....it was the kernel

That's the kernel I use for all my port ROMS and I don't like his new one because it has the metropcs logo in it....

Working on this. Flashing the r.O.C.K kernel after flashing Titan seems to fix all the issues. Annoying but I will have to get to the bottom of it. Anyone familiar with modifying the kernel please contact me.
 
hey I'm pretty noob at this but is there a way to get ice on the LG optimus M? also can anyone give me that blue lock screen and the widget on the original post?

Dont hijack the thread bro. Ask that on the all things root section and not here ;) Anyways goto the Market and download MiiLocker. They have tons of unlock screens. Although I would uninstall WidgetLocker before you install MiiLocker otherwise you could run into complications. If you have any other questions you can private message me for info.

If flashing rockKernel afterwards works then it sounds like you gotta put that kernel into your ROM.....

I'll help you later today after school

That kernel IS in the ROM. That's what I do not understand with the wifi complication.

I did a nandroid backup and took the BOOT.IMG out and SWAPPED it with Titan. I dont know what else I missed. :confused:

why dont you just take the kernel from anyrom r.o.c.k and swap it with the one in titan rom and just release it as that. And if u cant do that just make a new thread with instructions on how to install titan rom and then flash the r.o.c.k kernel.
