I upgraded from an offcial t-mobile ROM to a TNT touchflo ROM1433, but da wifi is soooo bad. It has such weak signal, cant even reach my router from my bedroom upstairs. It worked excellent with my t-mobile ROM, now i don't know whats wrong. How can I improve wifi? is da problem with the ROM? I have unlocked t-mobile mda G3 device.
having this problem as well. mine will connect for a while then out of nowhere the network will show as unavailable. worked fine on the oem wm5 rom
if you need a rom with reasonable support for wifi you have to go to the older builts. .318 is the only built so far that connects to all wifi hotspots and enables you to connect even in IPsec networks.

Hi everyone,
I need some help with my phone, my friend upgraded my phone to WM6 for me. After that he left town, so I'm lost on how to fix this. Before the upgrade I had no problems with my Wifi. Now I can't connect to my wireless router, I can connect to my friends but not my own. Its very strange, I wanted to know if anyone else had this problem and if you guys know how to fix this.
It is a wireless G router and I tested in Mix mode and in G only without any luck. Its not my router because my laptop works, encrytion and without encrytion. It works with the usb cable and with edge or GPRS.
Rom 1.1.0.811 WWE
Rom date 8/11/06
Radio 2.19.11
Protocol 4.1.13.09
Thanks in advance
Having same problem almost..i can connect to certain networks, while other networks work only like 1 out of 10 times....seems im going back to wm5 unless this darn wifi issue is solved..any solution anyone ???
There are so many images to find here, but i'm looking for the latest one that can connect to WPA. Can someone tell me wich one i can use.
Went back to wm5, (latest Version),there were just to many problems with the wm6 roms.even my tmc quit working for me with the wm6 roms,back to wm5 everything is working fine again.
no problem with jrightmcps 2.02.00
gonna test that 2.02.00 version. hope that ones worked fine with WPA. will let you know
jrightmcps 2.02.02 works fine connected to WPA.
Not had any problems with the WLAN side, just Bluetooth can be funny sometimes, worked fine for over a month then started stopping at random intervals, icon on start page still showed BT as enabled, but comm manager showed as stopped. Once that happens either a soft reset or going into flight mode fixes it.
flashed to 2.2.0 version but still can't connect to wifi. after looking further i say my router is configurate as WPA TKIP+ AES maybe thats why i can connect. gonna test the settings tonight on my router.
I used to use Darkforce, and I'm pretty sure I connected to a WPA2 router before. (I could be wrong though, that was awhile ago)
ie tried many roms and then i flashed jwrightmcps 2.02.00 for his wonderful wifi connectivity. i use it both with wep lans and wpa (tkip) lans without any problem.

That is WPA2 then, can only connect via WPA (WPA-PSK or TKIP).
I've been reading and reading this forum but I seem to be missing some information.
I have modded my Verizon 700wx to WM6.1 and have enabled ICS. ICS is working over Bluetooth to my PC and works brilliantly. Yay Me.
Now, Can someone tell me (or point me in the right direction) how I can turn this phone into a hotspot for WiFi?
I'm thinking I need a WiFi SDIO Card? Will that get me to the next step as this phone does not have WiFi, just EVDO.
OR is there something in this phone where I can bridge the EVDO and turn the phone into a WiFi hotspot without the SDIO card?
I have WMWifiRouter installed, and but it says there are no Wifi Connectors. So I think I need a Wifi SDIO Card?
Suggestions? Thoughts?
700wx does not have a Wifi system built in ... from what you're describing, there may be something available to add on to it though.
The question that I have (and it sounds like you would be really good at helping me with) is how/where did you get ICS working on this phone? I'm trying to link my cellular internet connection to my laptop's bluetooth ...
I'm one of those stupid ppl that bought the g2x way back when it was supposed to work on all sorts of bands and what not. Anyways I didn't keep up with the developing story over the spring/summer, went to the UK right after I got it, and after multiple roms/settings and reading a lot, found out US t-mo g2x baseband version apparently doesnt work on 3 and orange 3g networks here (or at&t in the US if i remember correctly).
Anyways i still need internet on my phone. I use a google voice number and when connected to a wireless router here, I could call anyone in the US via google voice and t-mobile wifi calling. It was pretty great. Plus its what i use to check all my emails, pay my bills, etc etc, so internet on my phone is pretty necessary.
We recently switched to a mobile broadband internet provider (connects to computer via usb dongle, uses a sim card on the 3 network). There is no longer a wireless router here. however, both the mac and win 7 home premium machines we have here work fine for internet sharing for other devices doin an ad-hoc wireless setup.
My problem right now is that I cannot find a ROM/mod/config whatever for the g2x that supports both 1) wifi calling, and 2) adhoc wireless connectivity hack that together would allow me to make/receive US calls from the network here. I've tried to setup different programs on each comp that are supposed to broadcast infrastructure mode, but they havent worked right or didnt work on win 7, etc. Besides, I use adhoc networks a lot and want my phone to have ad hoc connectivity enabled.
For enabling adhoc wireless, I've looked at some of the wpa_supplicant patch types for other phones and over versions of android, but havent found any type of g2x/2.3.3 .zip that works universally or separately. several i haven't tried because i'm not sure how much it could/would mess up the g2x.
I'm currently on Xboarder's 2.3.3 OTA tweaked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158513 . As far as I can tell it currently doesnt support adhoc wireless networks. I don't mind moving to a rom with 2.3.4/5 or whatever so much, although I'd prefer to use something with the recent OTA, since they've been less buggy for me. I was doin the CM7 nightlies (having adhoc enabled) recently but also have serious APN problems with it which I imagine is tied to wifi calling not working for me with cm7.
Any questions or suggestions appreciated - I'm mainly just looking for a solid rom thing that supports 1) gapps, 2) wifi calling, and 3) wireless adhoc connectivity. anything else is superfluous at this point. also a working solution to establishing wireless adhoc connectivity on the g2x regardless of the ROM or not would be a dream (esp. after the OTA 2.3.3 update)...and as far as i could find not available.
Or, if someone has a good lead on getting reverse tethering or the baseband version updated to work in the UK (if possible), I'm all ears, but so far solutions in both of those directions have been difficult/impossible to track down.
There's a thread dedicated to this in the SGS2 forum. Maybe some of what's discussed is transferable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1066102
one of the links provided in that thread included a how-to webpage for the galaxy S . the wpa_supplicant file provided there worked surprisingly (normally the wrong ones bootloop me). that is, replacing mine with that one worked on a g2x running xboarder's 2.3.3 ota for enabling adhoc wireless connectivity (as I am receiving internet connectivity over an adhoc network connection on my g2x).
however, wifi-calling/my account-device/ etc (t-mobile apps) are not working or not connecting, which issue i'll take up in the thread for the rom itself. the t-mobile APN is visible, which seems to be a positive thing.
also, the wpa_supplicant from the CM7 nightlies bootlooped it, although i guess might be expected to since the one i tried was from 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 i believe.
thanks for the help. think i'm one-step closer to re-establishing wifi calling here.
EDIT: wifi calling is working over the macbook pro adhoc network but not the windows 7 machine's network. the scope of the remaining issues seems to lie with windows 7 internet sharing and not the phone/rom. that is to say, the above wpa_supplicant file gives adhoc connectivity/wifi calling with at least one g2x 2.3.3 rom, and perhaps others. the general adhoc connectivity question comes up occasionally for different phones, and for 2.3.3 on the g2x it seems this is one solution.
I've been looking around for a similar thread but I couldn't find anything helpful. My problem is that when I create a WiFi network with my notebook, and share my wired internet connection, I can connect to it, but there's no internet connection available.
My Inspire is using the newest MIUI build with the Radio that is recommended for the MIUI from the Radio thread. Every other WiFi network seems to work (I have some difficulties connecting to my uni's network but that's most probably not related to this, since my home network and every other network works fine). When I connect to this network, I have excellent signal, I get assigned proper network parameters by my own DHCP server and everything seems to work fine except for no internet connection, no pages load, market cannot connect etc. My friend's ZTE Blade works on this network, and my other friend's notebook also does. I tried pinging the device and from about 100 packets, only 1 reached it. I really have no idea what could be wrong. Thanks for the help in advice
Okay, after testing some more I can't connect to my uni's WPA2 secured networks, only the WEP secured networks. When trying to connect to a WPA2 network it says connecting, then the network quickly disappears and says Disabled or Remembered. Really pisses me off I tried also the "Released for Desire HD - 04-28-2011" Radio, no help with this, either.

I would try a different rom. MIUI uses CM based drivers for WiFi and BT. I would check there.
Tried the official CM7.1 ROM, same result, and actually every other WiFi network works, so I don't think it has to do anything with the ROM.

Try a non CM based Rom. They use the same drivers as MIUI is based off of CM. They use open source drivers instead of the ones built by the device manufacturer.
What type of connection does your university use?
