In the Axim X51v's WLAN utility, under the "Settings" button, you can see the "List of Available Networks" whenever the Wifi is on, you can see all the networks whose settings have been saved, as well as the currently available ones. My question is this: Is it possible to set the "Search" or "Scan" function, so that the device will ONLY attempt to connect to those networks that are actually available, instead of going down the entire list, and attempting to connect to networks that are currently unavailable?
Still curious...

.. So every time I reboot it wants to take me to the connection settings (I've already set up my GPRS/3G and it works fine), and the phone always thinks I'm roaming.
Also, according to my providers webpage (It's Simyo in Spain) they keep sending me config SMS's but they don't seem to be received.
Can anyone help? Thanks
By the way I have Googled this and found lots of references to the connection wizard but I can't find it. If I go to settings -> connections -> connections, then I just get "Simyo" with 'add connection' and 'manage connections' below it, and a similar set of links for 'my work connection'
Never mind, I found the connection setup, it just wasn't showing in the settings menu of Bell UI.
Sorry, I'll mark this solved now.
[edit: Oh I can't change the thread title...]
when connecting some wifi, I need to set specific proxy to make it work. how to change that with HTC ONE S? didn't find it. and I even download two apps named "proxy settings", seemd both of them points out that is supposed embedded in 3.x android.
but I can't find it.
In the Wi-Fi list, press and hold your specific wireless network until the option 'Modify network' pops-up.
Scroll down until you reach the 'Show advanced options' at the bottom, and activate the checkmark. The funny thing about this option is, that with the checkmark on, the options list suddenly becomes larger, showing also the Proxy settings, IP and DNS. Took me three attempts before I finally noticed the change, when I was searching for the DNS options on HTC Sense.
I've tried every 3.6 rom out there on my evo3d, with full wipes, and on none of them can I find where to find/login to wireless networks. I can connect to them fine during the phone setup process, but I can't find the settings to connect to new ones later. I feel like I must be missing something stupid.
What headings do you have in the Settings menu? There should be a "Wireless & Networks" heading, with an item called "WiFi" (next to it will be the "ON" "OFF" switch).
Assuming you have all of that, press the switch to turn on WiFi if it's turned off. Then press on the word "WiFi" (not the switch). This should bring up your list of available networks.
Hello everyone,
So a few weeks ago my phone just wouldn't start. It would get to the point where you see the samsung logo on the screen and it would turn back off. I took it to the store I bought it from and they fixed it by formatting the phone back to the factory default operating system.
Since then, the phone has worked fine but my internet just doesn't work.
Any ideas? I'd rather fix it myself than have to deal with those people again.
Thanks
Ensure correct wifi config & try static IP address
I assume by internet you mean wifi connectivity. Have you setup your connectivity properly? you can also try setting up a static IP adress (go t wireless in settings, pres and hold the wifi name and from the popup menu select "modify network config" and select the check box for "show advanced config" there you can select static). You can search on net about setting static IP address on android as well.

I don't mean wi-fi. I'm referring to my carriers internet service that's within my contact.
Hi,
If you were like me, you were frustrated when you switched to CM12 and didn't receive any notifications/text/calls while on WiFi. This was a huge deal breaker for me. I do more on messages/emails/notifications than phone calls, so I was extremely upset not to receive texts in real time!
1) You shut off wifi and all of a sudden you'd receive a flood of messages.
2) You tried flashing all the modems and nightlies to get updated firmware and modems
3) You gave up and just went back to Kitkat.
Now there is a FIX!
And it has nothing to do with flashing any zips or changing firmware/modems!
It's all about the "Preferred network type"
1) You can find this in "Mobile network settings" change from 2G/3G/LTE to 2G/3G when on wifi and change it back when you are off wifi. Now doing this manually can be a pain in the ***, this is why we have the second option of automatically doing it with:
2) "Profiles"
Create 2 profiles (e.g. Home & Default)
Be connected to your wifi.
Setup Home (my own home wifi) "Triggers which will activate this profile" and click on "Wi-Fi" and then click on your network name and have it "on connect", hit back.
Scroll down to "Wireless & networks" and change "Preferred network type" to 2G/3G.
Done with First profile
Setup Default (when off of wifi's) "triggers which will activate this profile" and click on "Wi-Fi" and click on the network name you're currently connected to, and have it "on disconnect, hit back.
Scroll down to "Wireless & networks" and change "Preferred network type" to 2G/3G/LTE.
Summary: This will switch your profile when connected to wifi to use 2G/3G only, as you have your wifi to use the internet. This will allow calls/texts/notifications to go through 2G/3G. When you're off of wifi, it'll switch to the Default profile which uses LTE.
What I do:
1) My Default profile has multiple disconnections, my home wifi, work wifi, bluetooth to the car when disconnected will switch my profile to Default.
2) I have a Work Profile, Home Profile, Car Profile which on wifi/bluetooth connect, will change into their profiles. Work and Home are connected to wifi, so I changed the "Preferred network type" to 2G/3G. Car and Default profiles will change "Preferred network type to" 2G/3G/LTE.
Hope this helps you guys with the no text/calls/notification issues while on wifi!
Probably not intended by CM, a little fix around for now until they solve this one with some coding.
If it works, please thank! =)

Another solution that is more permanent is to flash the modem from CM 11s and the Proximity sensor fix. I also had this issue and have not had it since.
Enjoy!
