ok with l26 v9 and Ryncppr Version V6 wont pick up my homes wifi (ssid is just not there on the wifi screen of my tytn2's settings so i cant connect to it as its not there to click on it). After flashing a few others namely romeos latest and l26 v8 including flashing the correct hard spl(as recommended in rom thread) for all of them my phone finds my wifi again any ideas people? I have tried other wifi managers etc but it still wont be found.
i have also mentioned this in l26's v9 thread and people didn't seem to know i have not said anything to ryncppr as i flashed out of it instantly as i use my wifi all the time at home. this is a very frustrating problem.
And yes i have reset my router and and all that sort of stuff.
I Have all ready tried;
Different radio's
Reflash
Hard reset (after every flash i have ever done)
2 Downloads of l26 v9 from 4shared and rapidshare
2 routers tried
Third party wifi apps
hidden ssid
non hidden ssid
wep disabled
wep enabled
a few channels
sitting next to the router
resetting my router
firmwear update (no further updates)
all router settings were tried on both routers
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok after testing some of the idea given by readers of the thread i have determind this is definatly a rom issue with L26 v9's rom i will test Ryncppr later today or tomorrow. L26 v9 rom will not pick up wifi on channels 12,13,6 and 5 maybe more but after i set my router to 5 my laptop lost the wireless and i had to hook up with a cable to fix. but from other peoples wifi in my street i should be ok on channel 3 aswell. i shall go and post these findings in the l26 thread so people know. i sadly am not a chef etc and have no idea about how to fix this i shall play and see if i can find anything.
this test has been done at hard spl 3.59 (rom recomended) radio 1.58.25.17 and 1.65.24.36 hard reset after flash.
Please inform if you have/find similar results/problem
Did you try different radios?
Ask clearer questions

Man, this post is giving me a headache just 1) trying to understand what the problem is, and 2) trying to understand what you've tried already, and 3) trying to understand why you didn't post this in a specific ROM's thread.
Potential answer #1: ESL. But nope, I look at your country and it's (!) England.
Potential answer #2: You're in an altered state of mind.

Well, look at it this way, he (1) used the correct SPL, (2) tryed [sic] other Wifi managers, (3) reset his router, and (4) all that sort of stuff.
Based on this (especially # 4, because that's a "catch-all") , we can absolutely remove anything that might be specific to his situation or setup (including his phone and/or router). With such conclusive and definitive statements, it can then absolutely only be a problem with every single one of the ROM's he tried.
I know, I know - you might dispute the fact that every single solitary ROM out there the same WiFi bug in it (which hasn't hit me, and probably not you)), but that seems to be the only possibility given (1) to (4). Since every cooked ROM out there must immediately be recooked, the main topic heading is actually well chosen!

Truely confused that my ROM is there since I was using WiFi with it earlier today???

ok well thanks for reading guys the problem is only with my router i can find the house next doors and some 1's from up the street. like i sed i have done all the hard spl stuff. the radio i dont belive to be the issue as the same radio on other roms works fine and after flashing a differnt one i still have the same problem
when i say i have tryed everything i have renamed my ssid on my router hidden un hidden it etc.

Seriously, man. We're just trying to help you, but if we can't understand you with the typos, slang, and lapses in data-points, it becomes too hard, and then it becomes much easier for us to slag you because of the typos in your post.
And believe me, I try not to do that because it's such a cheap shot, but this post raises lack of communication to a new level.
Back to the problem, the new data-points are helpful. If the router seems to be the problem, what kind of router are you using?

How can other people read and understand the post but yourself. The router is fine i have only had the problem with 2 roms the ones listed befor. Every other rom has been fine. The radios have been fine i have 6 laptops running off the router and 2 pc's all fine the only problem is with my phone. My old wizard picks it up fine aswell. As said befor the recomend hard spl's were used, the radio has been changed and the problem is still there. And befor anybody ask's yes i did hard reset after all flash's. This is a rom problem im not stupid i have checked everything on the router twice. i have changed settings on the router and my phone still cannot find it. Leading it to be a rom issue as it was fine with l26 v8 v7 and v6 all of duttys i can go on. and like i have sed befor i have changed the name of the router to names of routers around me and it still cant find it. i honestly do not know how to make this more clear.
This is driving me mad as l26 v9 is my fav rom so far and i have found it very stable and fast but i cannot use it with my wifi.
Please fill me in on the "lapses in data-points" ican list all the hard spl's rom (Already said) and radios if you so need. but i do not belive these to be required.
I don't cook roms or anything like that so I'm not an expert, but since you could find your neighbors router but not yours why don't you post your brand and type of router and see if anyone can find a link.

This is an internet forum. People can't spell and they certainly don't know what "[sic]" means.
I would suggest comparing the values in the following registry key, between the working and non-working ROM's:
[Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms]
There may be a setting in there that is causing the conflict (or the driver revision used, check version/datestamp/filesize of TNETW1251.dll between working/nonworking)
For example, on my HP IPAQ hx4705, if I set HTCPowerMode to 2, on my old wifi router I would get random disconnects etc. - setting to 0 (which uses more power) fixed those problems right up. I no longer have these issues after upgrading my router.

VJ – check your power save mode on the ROMs that work. Read somewhere that it needs to be on best performance to work on some ROMs. Hope this helps.
I am surprised you are blaming the ROMs you flashed for your problem as all the threads for those ROMs do not have anyone flagging wireless as a problem with a flood of others agreeing with them. I myself flash almost all new ROMs posted on the Kaiser ROM Development forum and with an exception of one ROM (which is now fixed) all work with my Wireless at home and at work. Try a different radio as suggested before (take note on people discussing the radio versions in those specific ROM threads) and defiantly try somewhere with a wireless hotspot.
One BIG question: How did you reset your wireless router? I ask because it sounds like it is not releasing new IP addresses. You have flashed new ROMs which will clear the original IP thus requesting a new one from your router.
i have also been having problems with my wifi on the secure network at my house. my hermes connects just fine i have flashed it at least 50 times. but my tilt can only connect to secure wifi on the roms that use the radio 1.64.xxx and lower of course there are not many secure routers for me to test on.

First the usual "appologies" that seem to be "a must" in this forum.
1.) Reason for not posting in the V4 thread is simply because that thread is too large, too full of non-subject replies.
2.) I have read the 2:nd FAQ post, does not even mention the problem with the GPS
3.) I have read the wiki
4.) I have searched the forum (and it does not even find anything because GPS has too few letters)
5.) I have browsed through 50 pages in the V4 thread and did not find an answer (and got tired reading ).
So, my problem:
GPS does not work after I installed the V4 rom. It did work in V3.
I have tried quick GPS, I also started GPS-tool (which did not get a fix either or find any satellites).
The orange blinking LED does not start when using GPS tool (it starts in miomap however).
And googlemaps does not get a fix (or find any satellites) either.
My radio is 12.32 , if that has anything to do with GPS?! I have sim-unlocked the phone. I live in Sweden.
I read a few posts where people seem to have a problem with their GPS after changing radio, even when they revert back to their original radio. During the sim-unlocking process the radio is temporarily changed, maybe that is the source of the problem?

I like it.. you apologised for not following the rules.. then didnt follow them. excellent.
The Dutty V4 thread is the one most likely to be of use.. I know its full of people not posting in the right place.. but adding to that isn't going to help.
As to the problem.. People keep reporting GPS issues with the Radio ROM's... Now It may be me but the radio rom shouldnt have anything to do with the GPS... unless im mistaken its a seperate chip and will have a seperate flash (which you probably cant modify)
What COM port are you trying to use? What are your External GPS settings set too in the control panel?
I got no problems with new threads on new issues. 150+ pages is just useless.
I haven't seen the GPS problem you talk about. Might try re-flashing your radio version, or a different version.
No neither do I.. But this isn't a new issue..
Loads of people are saying they have GPS issues after flashing..
At least a few of them I've seen are actually caused by people not understanding what they are on about (A few of the people seem to be confused by the fact the GPS may be on a different COM port after the flash for example)
the others all seem to follow the logic that changing the radio may help.. so trying that would be a good place to start (flashing back to the radio the device e shipped with for example and seeing if the GPS now works int he new Os with the old radio?)
I've never had a GPS problem.. But have seen all these fixes so many times whilst reading other threads I can regurgitate them, and thats without even searching for this issue.

this works for me
"Duttys DualTouch v4 RTM Release [ FAQ added in Post 2]" thread on 158 page
Go through the setup again.... If need be try a hard reset then Run GPSTest
Ensure you are using a radio compatible with Dutty's ROM. Try one or all of
these first, then report back what you find if it doesn't come back.
You shouldn't have to duck when you poke your head into the forum. Just be thankful it's not a contact sport yet. Just because you're using one ROM or another avoid attributing the problems/issues with that persons ROM. There are so many things that can create problems and user error is the biggest culpret.
Who can blame you for not putting this under the ROM release thread? It's too broad, likely not applicable, and everyone and his uncle has posted something there.
Cheers.
Ok thanks for the answers. Somehow the GPS just started working again, but I will never know why I started google maps, mio maps, tomtom a few times, and suddenly after 2 days the gps started working I was just about changing rom and radio, but now it seems as if I will stick to V4 a couple of days
thanks!
this version works ok with nearly all apps and cooked apps the only problem is the touchflo, the touch flo works but its not 100%
Guys,
I believe WM6.1 has new network drivers, does anyone know if its possible to use these on WM6?
What advantages would it have or does having new drivers have?
I don't know if it has any benefit but I'm struggling with an issue regarding wifi connectivity and just wondered if it would be worth trying them to see if they resolve the problem.
Not wanting to flash the WM6.1 roms yet I wondered if the could be posted here for me to try them.
Maybe I'll just have to be patient and wait for 6.1 to settle in

Hello,
what kind of issue is that?
I'm having a problem with the http proxy settings that are being deleted all the time.
I've posted on this forum about this and seems that are other people with the same problem.
If this is your problem, don't bother flashing WM6.1 roms. I've tried almost all of them and none solves the problem.
I have the HTTP Proxy settings problem too, and nothing seems to fix it.. horrible if this simplest thing can't be done I can't use WAP, college proxy, or work proxy.. damn

I don't have that problem. Mine is an issue connecting to access points after the phone has been suspended for a while (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366526 if you are interested).
The proxy problem is fixed in 6.1 I have tested it and it does keep the proxy now. Hurraaaaayyy that was one huge problem for me. Still having some issues connecting to the internet. But a few more atempts and I should have some success.

hello,
unfortunately i cannot turn on the bluetooth from comm manager, it turns on and after 1 second is off again.
any solution for this problem?
thanks.
I have had this problem before and unfortunately am having it again. Only solution I have ever found for this is a hard reset and then reinstalling all your apps. If you try to restore from a backup from Sprite Backup, for instance, the problem remains. This would lead me to believe that it's a setting or a registry issue somewhere but I haven't been able to locate exactly what would be causing it and don't know enough about programming in WM to write something to figure it out.
Not a great answer but there it is.

Hi, I have a Uk version of the touch cruise and I have the same problem. I just did a hard reset but the problem remains. Turning bluetooth on is impossible. It just try's to turn it on and shuts it off immediately.
Maybe it has something to do with GPRS? I am always connected to the internet. I tried to disconnect but then bluetooth still doesn't work. Can anyone help? Thnx!
No one has a clue?
I had this prob with bluetooth and wifi following the use of wmwifirouter- after hard reset and no wmwifi all goes well...
On a French SFR rom
any other idea?
Same problem... beginning to wish I'd gone all Apple and bought an iPhone. Anyway.... To trun it on, I had to go to Comm Manager>Settings>Bluetooth>Mode>Turn on Bluetooth. That worked despite the Comm Manager still showing Bluetooth as "off".
It only connects 1/2 the time to my headset or handsfree in the car
Otherwise, the phone crashes only once a day! Great! Thanks!
ok, great to see more people having the same problem but i hope that someone has a sollution...
When I try to turn bluetooth on in the communications settings i get a message saying there is a hardware error! :S
Ohw btw, I'm not using any router programs or other and my WIFI works fine.
has anybody of you having this problem tried to change to another rom?
if yes? did this worked?
any news on this?
No news, I don't want to try for a different rom because i don't think it will change anything. It just seems like its a faulty device which is a real shame. I've already contacted the place where i bought it and see if i can get a new one.
I also have problems with my microphone during calls, photo camera does often not work and the touchpad reacts very slowly to my touches. Very annoying!!!!
Yup, am returning mine to HTC aswell. Not even sure I want it back. WiFi stopped working too, and then it stopped receiving text messages, and everyone said they couldn't hear me when I called them. Great
Some of you guys got a bad device, there are thousands out there working properly.
If some of you guys flashed a newer Radio, the one form the test-ROM, then this is your problem.
And some of you guys have a quite gay branded ROM (slow responsiveness of touchpad). The original HTC ROM on the FTP and even more so a cooked ROM would solve alot of your problems. But be aware, flashing without having a backup ready is going to void your warranty if you want to exchange it having a custom/non-original ROM on the device.
What's up Schaggo
I am experiencing the same problem these gentlemen are mentioning and my ROM is not gay or lesbian. It is the original one.
TC is my 7th HTC device and I can see the quality of the ROMs decreasing a lot on every new device. I feel like HTC needs a real competitor to move up its arse quicker.
All I can say is that it really annoys me to hard reset this [email protected] everytime I "accidentally" use a native feature called Flight Mode. By bluetooth seems to fly away and never get back.
Lots of time the GPRS settings have to be reconfigured too. Some people I know have problems with GMail IMAP4 accounts when sending messages after some time. I never had this problem on my Kaiser neither on my Niki.
The lack of a video driver really is an egg on our faces, because I can't believe my ole Qtek 9100 responds quicker than these "all the bells and whistles" Qualcomm 7200 super-duper geared up devices.
So, if you feel like not contributing, please do not mess around.

Hi
I've tried many custom rom and the PB continue. "PB with the hardware oh BT".
Hard reset doent change anything.
my initial rom (SFR France) was working
custom rom (blackwidow + Bepe 058) are buging...
nedd some help !
Thanks alot for that input feaps. I guess I have to clarify a little bit.
My answer was supposed to be pointing in different directions. The first and general information I tried to contribute was, that it is not a common Polaris problem to have a broken Bluetooth unit. Which doesn't help at all to ppl affected, but it should tell them, that they probably got a bad device and should exchange it first before blameing htc in general and shouting for an iPhone.
It only was partially directed at specific persons. At madinga for example: did you try hardresetting your device? It could be a corruption in your system which causes all those problems. I doubt it though, if you suffer the loss of so many functions at the same time I suspect the mainboard to be broken. But nonetheless, hardreset it, see if its working, BEFORE you put your backup back on the device again since that could restore the corruption. If it doesnt work, exchange your unit, I hope you'll get a working one back.
My second line was directed at all people which have overwritten their original Radio with the 1.58.25.14 originating from the HTC Test ROM which can be found on the ftp server. The Bluetooth part of that Radio is flawed and leads to the problems described in this thread. I quite nicely pointed that out and told people where to have a look before shouting around. I do know that because I tried it myself and couldnt get my Bluetooth devices working. Once I flashed the original Radio back, my BT problems were gone.
And my third line - in which I may chose the wrong words, 'gay' for example - holds information targeted at people with for example the branded french SFR ROM or the original HTC french ROM. The SFR ROM is just horribly branded and if you go through the threads here you'll find people complaining about problems which then turn out to be related to the ROM. The french HTC ROM is flawed as well, it has severe problems with the volume control. I don't exactly remember what it was, but it's a flawed ROM, thats for sure. The German o2 ROM isnt flawless either, I know that because I originally had that ROM. Once I flashed my orbit 2 with the original HTC WWE ROM, I found it to be working alot better and smoother than with the o2 ROM originally provided. And this is where my last line comes into play: if you suffer problems related to your currently flashed ROM, they could be diminished by flashing an alternative ROM. But if your device is broken, and I personally and strongly believe that everybody fooling around in this forum should be intelligent enough and able to determine the sense of my words, eg. if he/she suffers a ROM problem or if the device just simply is dead and take appropriate actions.
And now to your contribution feaps. I feel personally attacked by your words. Thats why I defended my words in all the paragraphs above. Trust me, I've had enough mobile devices of all sorts to know what it means to get a not working once. Its frustrating and makes you want to throw it out of the window. And being able to see the quality decrease over time is just another drop on a hot stone. I agree. But be honest, if your BT unit works and stopps working once you engage a software based function, the problem is software related, dont you think? As for the GPRS settings, I cant tell. Since I use a free ROM which has the wizard built in (o2 removed it from their ROM) I didnt switch my SIM and the configuration worked, automatically and every single time. And I do use IMAP as well on my personal E-Mail account. Until now I didnt run across any problems, so I cant give you any feedback on that either.
So rethink again if I mess around or not or if I actually try to contribute and help the freshmen, coming into this forum and flashing whatever they find and breaking their devices. And recommending to flash the original HTC ROM, which should be/is the base for everything floating around, breaking your devices, is a serious input to everybody.
Edit: I forgot to add, pointed at nooms, there are cooked ROMs out there which stupidly have the new, flawed Radio baked in. Which Radio are you on? Try Start > Settings > Tab System > Device Information > Tab Version. Are you inadvertedly still on Radio 1.58.25.14 or back to (original) 1.58.21.23?
Hi everyone,
I agree with Schaggo completely. Most of the time problems have something to do with the software on the device. But I a not a tweaker like most of you guys, i've just bought my first (and hopefully not last) HTC phone. If i have problems of some kind, all i can do is reset the thing. A hard reset if necessary. I've done that many times. I can't change the software that comes standard and i don't think i should be the one who has to do that. Shouldnt HTC be doing that??
Anyway, Bluetooth keeps saying it has an hardware error. My radio version is a standard 1.58.21.23 but isnt finding any radiostations here in holland. Is it also broken? (sorry, i know, its a bit off topic)
You're right

Well put. Sorry for being rude, but I keep seeing people offending others day after day in this forum that used to be high level; but that doesn't mean I should act the same way.
I totally misread you and please accept my apologies.
My ROM is: 1.25.405.1 WWE
ROM Date: 12/11/07
Radio Version: 1.58.21.23
Protocol Version: 25.65.30.04H
One thing I could notice is that HTC has a flaw in the Flush HKCU to Permanent Memory While Shutting Down. Some keys are not written.
One example is the MagiCall (an app I use) registration key. The software maker had to write a flush app for doing that. Another example is the Start>Settings>System>Error reporting. No matter what you chose, after a power cycle or a soft reset, it always go back to "Disable...".
I have, also, already tested the device after the hard reset with no extra apps on it. Same lame behavior on BT...
So, SW QA levels are really dropping fast on new HTC models. That is pretty bad.
But anyway, I have an open case with HTC and if I find something contributive I will toch base with this thread.
Once again, sorry for being rude.
Best,
-Feaps

Then I guess you most probably got a bad unit. I guess the only solution at this time is an exchange.
The Radio-Firmware doesnt control the FM Radio btw The Radio-Firmware controls connections to the providers network, Wireless LAN and Bluetooth. But the FM Radio seems to be really bad in the Polaris, a lot of ppl I know complain about it.

No problem dude! There is no need for such an excessive appology. We are in a Forum and people have different oppinions and I think its totally acceptable to shout at each other. I just wanted to express that I'm not in accord regarding your judgement of my post. But thanks a lot, I seriously really appreciate it!
Yes, your device seems pretty standard to me and the scenario you described logically made me think of a software error. But this seems very unlikely now. I'm out of ideas for the moment then, I guess you have to return or exchange it too.
You are perfectly right about the dropping SW QA though. You can notice the registry glitch in other areas as well: backlight timer always reset to 30 sec, and there are more settings all over the place which don't get saved properly.
Again, no problem, everybody lets be cool
Bluetooth doesn't turn on
I have the same problem. Did anyone find a solution?
Also camera fails to initialize, touch pad is sometimes very slow for initial reaction. I have NO added programs beyond manafacturer originals and have tried a number of hard resets. Doesn't help.

Hey guys, I've been having a problem with the wifi on my universal for awhile, it just won't turn on, antenna stays off, no scanning, it's just off.
Going into the Wireless lan settings in the control panel "Wireless LAN OFF" is displayed, click "Turn on WLAN" it thinks for a few moments then returns to off with nothing changed.
Does anyone know if this is fixable? It doesn't appera to be a software issue, as it has continued on 3 diffreent ROMs... so i'm not sure how to proceed

hi @ all
this tread is a bit "past" but now i got the problem mentioned by balur.
i actually use maxstegis rom(5.2), but i also tried it with te shipped one from t-mobile.
i used google and the forum search, but i was not able to find a solution. i hope smb. can help me, because i need the wifi tomorrow!
1) Perhaps some of these ROMs are based on others that have the same problem.
solution: choose another ROM. Tomal8.2, minhanhtran, nncuong are ROMs that I vouch for that work on my maching with no WIFI problems
2) Perhaps your radio is not good
solution: try flashing another radio. I use 1.18, but many say 1.15 is the most stable. I have had problems with neither - but it may be worth reflashing your radio to make sure it is ok and stable.
Personally, I think if your original t-mobile ROM doesn't work, then you have problems with phone hardware. First I'd check other things can connect to you WLAN, to make sure it's definately the phone that's not good - or perhaps try and connect to a friends WLAN.

how can connect to a friends wlan? Quote(Balur): "returns to off with nothing changed." i cant even turn it on!
but thanks for your help!!!
I've the same problem with Tomal's 8.2. An other rooms I've tried.
The only thing I did was to change my 2Gb SD to a 4Gb HDSD
I experienced automatical turning off WiFi on Tomal 8.2 when i installed some tweaks - one to edit system settings and speed up Uni, second to disallow applications turn on GPRS - only manual turn on.
I'm not sure which of them was causing it .... don't you have something like that installed?
I'll try to find exact names of them when I'll have a while ...
Yes I had the XCPU Scalar. But now, even if I install an Original Shipped ROM, I can't turn on the wifi. I think that something is swiched off permanently, but I don't know what nor how.
Hi to all, I'm new to this forum and to Smartphone devices and I just got an HTC Fuze this week and I still cant get the Wifi to work trough a wep encripted router, I already tried with 3 diffrerent routers and still get an odd "incorrect key" message everytime I try (Im sure the key is correct because I connect my laptop there) and I already discarded a hardware issue (but you are the expert) because I disabled one of these routers wep encription and leaved it unprotected, therefore I could get a connection.
I already searched for an upgrade or something inside the Htc site and windows update and nothing..
Can anyone of you guys help me out? maybe point me in the right direction? or at least give me some advice?
I searched the threads in this forum and didnt find any problem like mine ,so I started this one.
Thanks in advance
Edit:
Question-- If the problem its software related, could it be possible to be fixed by flashing it with a custom ROM ?
If the answer is yes, what Rom its recomended for a smarthphone newbie (a noobproof ROM lets say), because my phone is very importanto to my work..
IdeAS? suggestions?
2nd Edit:
Plz someone at least tell me if my problem can be solved by installing a custom rom =S... or say you dont know I feel ignorated =(
