Congrats!

Do you still have root? Or were you able to re-root?

Edit... I look in the root section. Probably should have done that first

Do you have a antivirus enabled? Disable it and redownload the one click root.

I got this update today, and ever since then, my wifi shows that it's getting a signal, but doesn't work at all.

I'm not rooted, and I just got this phone less than a month ago. Is there any way to rollback system updates?

Try performing a factory reset, yes you can roll back update with Odin.

Madroxide · May 9th, 2012, 05:21 PM

Download busy box from the market.

powerkane · May 9th, 2012, 05:37 PM

yah i dont understand that i should have root because titanium works and it needs root access but we dont its like half root

Madroxide · May 9th, 2012, 05:46 PM

re downloading busybox worked and boostzone is gone....thanks

Scottie2400 · May 9th, 2012, 07:10 PM

Madroxide · May 9th, 2012, 07:12 PM

Not with any great frequency. 3G data works, but as soon as I try to use the wifi, I've got nothing. It says it's connected, but I don't get the green wifi symbol and nothing can connect. Occasionally (like twice out of the whole day I've been trying) it works. I'm pretty peeved at the the moment.

....Good... Not for you DJ... but at least I'm not going completely crazy... hopefully something is done about this or someone comes up with something... I'll keep looking for answers to this problem too.

sjvirchow · May 9th, 2012, 09:25 PM

I just manually updated my phone and it works fine.

powerkane · May 9th, 2012, 09:57 PM

this is propb the third time i updated a phone... do you know what sucks when you update it erases everything i just realized that and if you are not root and didnt back up everything your kinda fked i mean samsung pesters u till u update and for what ? all your apps and data gone lol im glad im rooted lol

Yeah calling boost for info about a wifi problem is not going to help you... Call boost for things like poor service or warranty replacement. Wifi is a hardware or software issue and most likely samsung's issue. Then again it might just be because alot of us updated on an altered phone.

Edit: actually it seems the majority of you with wifi issues have not had rooted phones...

djshiva · May 10th, 2012, 09:07 AM

So does anyone know who exactly I could contact about this? Samsung or Android? I have no idea. I need to give a bug report, darn it!!

I posted here: Issue 30721 - android - May update causing wifi issues on Transform Ultra - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting

SOmeone else said to post here: SAMSUNG Developers
but not as sure about that one.

janathan · May 15th, 2012, 09:33 PM

i have read about wifi problem, tethering problem and few others after the 2.3.6 update. so my question is...should i even bother to update?
is there any real improvement in this update that anyone has noticed?
i read the log....it did mention improvement in battery management....is that for real? any other reason to update?

thanks in advance

Dupiche · October 3rd, 2012, 10:33 AM

after I updated my android phone my root access permision has been denied since, and I have not find a fix yet, so I woldn't suggest anyone to update android if rooted. It seems that the problem is in the file path system/xbin/su. idk
