Can't turn on Wireless

Hi All:
So i running mUn_aRTM_10.2.0.8_WWE, happy overall with the rom, wireless seem to have worked early on, it's been a few weeks since i last tried and all of the sudden last night attemp to turn on the wireless interface in the wizard and doesn't work. Tried soft-reset, click comm manager wireless icon a few times, and the turn on wireless shortcut on the today page. Out of luck!
Has anyone ever run into this? Not sure if it's software or tweak that caused this.
Thanks,
-LD.

More than likely its a tweak or software conflict. I believe in other threads people have had issues with one of the Spb tools that caused WiFi to stop on WM6 roms. I'm sure other things probably can do similar.

Just give it a try:
Have you tried:
HKLM\Comm\Tnetwln1\Parms\HTCPreloadstatus --> 1
HKLM\Comm\Tnetwln1\Parms\HTCPreloadwifi -->1
For me it helped. Espescially for remapping hardwarebutton with 3rd party Apps. Without the setting I could never choose Wifi to put on hardwarebutton.
And check if "wifiinit.ink" is in windows\startup folder.

bluetooth shortcut - How-to

I'd like to make a shortcut to bluetooth, can a lnk/shortcut be created to the bluetooth on/off menu?
it sucks having to go to connnetion manager, then bluetooth, then mode tab.
trying to put a shortcut on my tray rather than having to go thru 3 steps each time i wanted to turn bluetooth on/off. i know how to put stuff in the tray, just wonder if it's possible to create a shortcut to the bluetooth on/off menu?

Have you tried Btio?
I think it's what you need

yeah i came across that, but i was just curious if i can make a shortcut to bluetooth without installing additional application. i would of thought there would of been a bluetooth shortcut in \Windows\

well i figured out how to do it.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/ppc_tcuts2.asp
here's how i did it:
Open notepad and type:
23#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,23,1
Save file as bluetooth.lnk and copy it to your phone. ( i copied it to \Windows\) and put the bluetooth.lnk in my tray which now opens bluetooth>connection tab (on/off).
there are many possible commands/parameters that can be passed to clpmain:
Contrast=0
Password=1
Owner information=2
Power=3
Memory=4
About=5
Backlight=6
Screen=7
Input=8
Sound&Reminder=9
Remove Program=10
Menus=11
Buttons=12
Today=13
Beam=15
Clock=16
Network Adapter=17
Regional Settings=18
Connections=19
Bluetooth=23
if you read the link i posted to MSDN it explains how to use the parameters. only thing i have to figure out is how to change the generic windows icon to the bluetooth icon... working on that now.

well now i know why i went to school
figured it out without installing additional software.. so now i have a bluetooth icon in my systray that takes me directly to bluetooth on/off page.
cheers.

did you figure how to get the image for the shortcut? Another question, this option that you found, does it take you directly to the wireless screen, or swith the bluetooth on and off?

TomTom 7 "Flight Mode"

I replaced my Sable with an iPhone this summer, but I've still been using the Sable as a turn by turn GPS solution with TomTom Navigator 6.
Since I wasn't using it as a phone, I had the phone (as well as wifi and bluetooth) turned off, and it was working fine.
However, I just installed TomTom Navigator 7, and if the phone is off, TomTom says it's in "Flight Mode" and won't get a lock.
If I enable the phone, TomTom works fine. The SIM card in the phone is deactivated and will not successfully connect to the network. TomTom behaves this way whether I have:
1) an active SIM card
2) a deactivated SIM card
3) no SIM card
Does anyone know of any way to get TomTom to work while the phone radio is disabled? I really don't want the extra power drain.
Thanks

youll need a data connection or wi-fi for tom tom to work

No. It works fine with no SIM card, the WIFI radio disabled, and the Bluetooth radio disabled. But the cellular radio has to be enabled.
I want it to work with the radios all disabled, as it did with TomTom Navigator 6.

hrmm, all i can think of is maybe a cooked rom that functions as a pda instead of a phone, tomtom 6 wouldn't work on my orbit if i turned the phone function off.
i'm not sure but maybe theres a registry key stating its in flightmode, as i've noticed when u turn all the radio's off flightmode is on, and programs read it as flightmode, maybe theres a 1 to change to a 0 someware..worth a look if you have the time

I found some interesting values in HKLM\System\State\Phone. They change when I enable/disable the phone, so I'll try them out.
Do you know of a way to save a copy of the registry, and then compare two copies to see what's different?
Thanks

Nevermind. I got a program that could export and compare two states of the registry, so I saved one copy with the phone radio off, and one with it on, and compared.
There were a few differences. I turned the radio off, and set all the registry values to what it would normally have in the "on" state.
TomTom still said it was in flight mode.
My home screen basically said that the phone was on, but no SIM was inserted. However, normally if the phone is on, and you tap the phone, it turns off. When I did it, the status flickered, but it went back to on, and then TomTom worked.
There's more to TomTom's detection than just looking at the registry.
Any other ideas? :S

does the ttnavigator.bif file get created on startup everytime? as in there under features it says 'PhoneFeatures', i highly doubt it would work but may be worth removing it...
if you disable the radio after launching tomtom does it switch to flightmode? (just tried it switches to flightmode )
i'm interested in this as my sister wants my old orbit as a satnav, and won't be using the phone functions

found this link, i'm not sure if this turns off the phone or not, but its worth a shot

I had to make the file read only for it to not get overwritten, but it still didn't work.

You can't set a SIM pin if there's no SIM card.
And I'm not sure about that having any effect at all. Regardless of whether you have the correct pin entered, you can still make emergency calls, which means it's still talking to the cell towers, which means it's still using battery.

disable wifi on tilt

does anyone know how to permanently disable wifi on a at&t tilt 8925, or know where I can find out from. by permanently I mean remove or disable the wifi antena, or some kind of program to edit the connection manager and remove the wifi on off switch.

try to delete this registry with registry editor: (it will ruin your registry setting about wifi, so wifi is permanently disabled, as your request)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETW1251]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETW12511]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
and for the comm manager: make sure you dont have any text written "WLAN" in here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\5]
@="DataDisconnection"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\4]
@="3G"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\3]
@="WLAN" -> remove this, change to something else (ActiveSync, etc)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\2]
@="Bluetooth"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\1]
@="Phone"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\0]
@="FlightMode"
there, you wont have any wifi in comm manager and available wifi,.

which editor should I use, and do u also know how I could delete bubble breaker and solatire

This worked somewhat for my somewhat bricked 8525 with WM6.1 (couldn't get radio working). There wasn't a "TNETW1251" but something similar "TNET..." Only problem was I set it up while WiFi was enabled so now it searches for WiFi and there seems to be no way to disable it.
I will eventually put those Registry items back so I can see what the deal is. Does this work similarly on an HTC Fuze? Whether I can disable WiFi will be a determining factor in whether I will buy the Fuze.

I don' mean to pry and if it is none of my business just say so, but why go to those extremes when you can just " shut it off" in your comm manager.
Two login names Joe? or two separate people coincidently named Joe.

I am a man with little self control, who is relying on the strength of God and His guidance for wiser choices. I love my 8525, but I "done it in," so I'm thinking of upgrading to something newer that has the same features. None of the other phones had the QWERTY board like I wanted. I use a program called Pocket eSword and have a ton of notes and highlighting in it. I may just continue using my 8525 as a PDA and get something simpler, but I also like the idea of an all-in-one. I also like using Word and Excel. Any insight would be appreciated.

Has anybody tested this?

double post sorry

Yes i tried it and it does as it says ,wifi is blocked, i was fed up with my tytn switching wifi on for no reason and draining my battery all the time. Since i removed the wireless reg settings i have no wifi and no power drain. So i am happy. Thanks for the info

maybe he gives it to his employeess and doesnt want them connecting to wifi, or maybe like me the rom just wants to connect to wifi all the time.

Enable Bluetooth DUN on Sprint Touch Pro2!

This took me a while, but I finally figured it out through trial and error. I know there are a few options out there for tethering, but this has always been the preferred way to tether when I was using the Diamond. It's wireless, you can initiate the connection from the PC, and it gives you better battery life than WMWiFiRouter or HTC Wifi Sharing. Best of all, you DO NOT need to initiate a DATA connection on the phone before connecting to your PC! Just fire up the BT DUN connection on your PC, click Dial, then browse the web!
Here's how we do this:
Install DotFred's TaskManager
Click select Menu, Tab Options, Select Tab, Services. Find "CM Guardian", click and hold until menu pop up and select "Set Manual".
Make the following changes on your TP2 with a Registry editor:
1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll"
2. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"
3. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\Wmodem]
Check Profile=0
Connected=0
Multi-NAI=0
WModemDUN=0
4. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\DUNServ er\ControlPanel]
Enabled=1
That's it! Re-pair your TP2 to your PC and BT DUN should be available as one of the services. Create a new DUN profile on your PC, leave username and password blank, and set dial number as #777. Click dial and you should be able to connect... just like old times.

Thank you so much for posting this. I have been ripping my hair out over this. However, I am on Verizon and thus my HTC Touch Pro2 has somewhat different entries in the registry than Sprint does. Does anyone know how to get DUN working with the HTC Touch Pro2 on Verizon? I bought a laptop specifically with Bluetooth just to use my phone as the modem but cannot get it working for my life.
After I did all the registry edits I could that you mentioned (even though all of them were not available since I'm on a different provider) I noticed when I try to dial out for a SPLIT second I will see "Dial Up Networking" listed under Bluetooth services. Windows promptly gives me a dialing error and that service on my phone disappears.
Anyone can give any pointers?

I don't have a Service called "CM Guardian". I have a custom ROM, would that make a difference?

Yes, some Rom chefs may have eliminated this service. I know MightyMike left it in his Rom, but I have not tested others on the TP2.
KD8FRE

Would this service be in WM6.5? If I download MightyMike's ROM would it be in there or is it only in WM6.1?

Thanks for this.

MightyMike's Rom does indeed have CMGaurdian. I cannot speak for other TP2 Roms, but his does.
KD8FRE

Can anyone give any pointers on getting this to work on the Verizon version of the phone? Been searching high and low!

There is no "CMGaurdian" on my phone. I did a full search for it and it's nowhere to be found. I have the stock Windows Mobile 6.5 rom. But it looks like without being able to set that as manual, I have to change the registry everytime I end up having to restart my phone. But even when I do that, it still goes back to phone as modem after a few minutes instead of staying on Sprint.

Awesome!
Thanks for the info. The connection sharing wasn't working for me anyway.
Just an FYI, you can optionally edit the registery to set the CMGuardian to Manual.
Open a reg editor and navigate to [HKLM\Services\CMGuardian]
Locate the Index key and change the value from 2 (default) to 1.

So anyone on Sprint TP2 with 6.5 stock rom actually got Wmodem to work? I've spent about 24 hr trying just about everything with no luck so far.
I made all the above reg changes, have WModem v02 installed on my TP2. Activate the wmodem prog, connect to computer with usb cable. When i try to connect on my computer, it stucked on verifying user name and pass. There is some sort of data connection going on on the phone itself, but the computer connected to the phone couldn't seem to go pass that "verifying user name and pass"
Much appreciated any help or comment. Thanks

Just wanted to add that I found this thread useful, got the registry entries and made a cab for it. This is for Sprint only! Download, install, and go, no need for registry editing!

Problem tethering via Bluetooth DUN to pspgo
Ok, I am pulling MY hair out on my ATT tilt 2. I am trying to use my fone as a bluetooth modem for my pspgo.
It seems that my Tilt 2 receives the data from the pspgo, but its not sending any data to the pspgo, when I test the connection the tilt2 receives about 9-16 bytes, but it says sent: 0 bytes.
I have energyROM july 16 2010 WWE winmo 6.5
Manilla 2.5.20161332.0
Build: 23563.5.5.0
I have seen vids of people doing this on the Raphael (FUZE) and other phones
I keep getting this connection error on my psp: (8030000B) I have tried so many dial #'s, changing settings, PDAnet,
I think the problem has something to do with:
it being WinMo 6.5 or
The custom ROM has disabled something in the Bluetooth or
Since the ROM is custom, the psp wont recognize this for some reason because just like the WIFI router; the carrier doesn't know I'm tethering. or
I have the wrong Dial-up # or
Authentication settings or Initialization command is wrong or
I need to use a Proxy network
Some other reason ( The ROMS BT stack) whatever that is lol
Does anyone have this or similar problem? Or know whats happening here?
Any help would be awesome!
Thank you

Worked Perfectly
After making the changes you suggested, this worked perfectly on my TP2. It's so funny, after I initially got my TP2 and tried it, I instantly gave up. Now that I'm a month away from going to a new carrier, and most likely a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, I got really interested in getting this working. It was a breeze using the Resco Explorer Demo with included Registry Editor.

TP2 Stock WM6.5
Doesnt work for me. I dont have CMGuardian.
I went ahead and edited the registry anyway and still didnt work even after rebooting.
I'm hoping someone can help figure this out... Trying to tether with my new Xoom!

Thanks a lot defcon6, I was looking for this some time ago, but no look, but know, looking for some other thing i found it, thanks again

Same here, stock 6.5 rom and no CMGuardian. Did you ever figure this out?

Never mind, I did run the cab from pengc99 and it worked fine. After soft reset of the phone, it never got out of the "modem negotiating" state but running the cab again fixed it. Now if I just could find the equivalent to CMGuradian I would be all set but this is at least working.

Bluetooth setting to ALWAYS ON?
Thanks to this thread and the pengc99 file, I successfully (quite some time ago) paired my TP2 via the bluetooth to a Nexus 7 tablet as well as an android phone, but each time I turn on the phone, I have to go through the following steps:
1. Select Communication Manager
2. Turn ON the Data Connection
2. Click on Bluetooth
3. Select one of my paired devices, such as the Nexus 7 by clicking the large "+" icon
4. Select Bluetooth Networking
5. Select the "Share Internet Connection" option
6. Click Continue on the bottom
I tried various registry edit searches here and on google, but cant' find any way to lessen these steps or preferably have the Bluetooth sharing set to ON at all times. If anyone knows how to simplify this process, please post the stops or file that will help us all.
Thanks in advance
