Matthew Exon (ubuntubugs-mexon) wrote : Wifi networking no longer possible, network indicator broken

Sometime in the last few days my phone lost the ability to connect to wifi networks and the network indicator at the top has stopped working.

Currently between "Bluetooth" and "Sound" I have a gear icon and the caption "indicator-network". When I select it, the rest of the screen is blank. There are no settings available and no way to connect to a wifi network.

On the System Settings app, if I tap on the "Wi-Fi" icon, I can see "Previous networks". But below that the page is just white, there is no way to select a wifi network.

Rebooting the phone doesn't seem to fix the problem.

Given that this is an MX4 and therefore the USB port doesn't work, and there's no SD card slot, there's vanishingly few ways to get data in and out of this phone now. If there's a solution to the problem, it's going to have to involve something other than updating system software.

Current system software is Ubuntu 15.05 (OTA-12).
