[QUOTE="Arv90, post: 1524767, member: 41568"] i loved the phone and appreciate the work motorola ppl have done Thought of sharing the trouble i went through, with my photon and almost gave me a shock when i couldn't turn on my wifi. After i updated my photon whenever i turned on wifi it showed error under the wifi tab in settings. tried lot of aftershock methods of rebooting the phone many a times.removed the battery and it worked for some time but it returned to the same state again.screwed my fingernails removing the battery 4-5 times.as i think photon users know how hard it is removing the back cover of the phone. Wifi worked only in flight mode finally went through a number of pages of a thread on the motorola support site and finally found the solution.It seems many ppl had the same issue. [B]Have an error with WiFi after update[/B] [url]https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/56567?start=135&tstart=0[/url] some crap [B]sprintOaDm[/B] process was blocking the wifi.as if sprint never wanted ppl to use the phone outside their network. So without rooting the phone, to remove the sprint processes, the other way to slove the problem is: Put the phone on flight mode and reboot the phone. turn on the wifi. and using some task manager or any other app kill or stop the [B]sprintOaDm[/B] process Wifi now works fine. However whenever i reboot the phone the process starts again and back to same problem Bought the phone three weeks backs so don't want to root the phone so soon.So finding an app to kill or auto end the process on reboot. Moral of the story:update the phone at your risk. [/QUOTE]
