[Q] HTC Aria 2.2 - Internet Connection Problems if WiFi and 3G are On

I'm having a problem that I can't seem to find a solution to anywhere.
I have an HTC Aria running 2.2 (I didn't do the OTA update. I flashed it myself) which is giving me connection problems if both WiFi and 3G are active at the same time. It only started happening after I updated from 2.1 to 2.2.
WiFi off, 3G on: I can use the web browser and all my apps that require internet access without a problem
WiFi on (and connected), 3G off (Airplane Mode) Same thing. No problems.
WiFi on (and Connected), 3G on: All of a sudden, I can only access the internet from certain apps. The Facebook app works fine as does the HTC Weather widget and shopkick. However, the web browser just hangs without loading pages, xkcdViewer throws me an error saying it can't connect to the server and the TD Bank app doesn't load.
I've been playing around with different settings and nothing seems to work. I found a temporary solution by going to Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names and resetting those to default, though that only lasted for about 10 minutes before the problem started again.
Also, when I was running on 2.1 the Market would always force the use of my 3G connection even if I was connected to a WiFi network. The only way to bypass this would be to put the phone into Airplane Mode and then turn WiFi back on. Now, on 2.2, the Market forces 3G, but only for a couple of seconds then switches back to WiFi, but I've noticed that sometimes the 3G connection remains active even after closing the Market.
Any suggestions? Was it just a bad flash of the ROM?

I seem to have fixed it.
I turned off my phone, removed the SIM card and booted it up. I connected to my WiFi and used the phone normally for a couple minutes. Then I turned it off again, replaced the SIM card and rebooted.
It seems to be working fine now. Hopefully it stays that way.

[Q] WiFi Disabled

Samsung Galaxy IIS Skyrocket sghi727, ANDROID 2.3.5, Kernel 2.6.35.11, baseband I727uckj2 Build Gingerbread. AT&T network. WiFi worked ok on Home system and allowed phone to connect/transmit/receive data.
Now, it scans and identifies the Home system but gives a WiFi remembered message then a WiFi Disabled message. I can not connect the phone to the home WiFi network. I have ATT DSL with Speedstream 5600 modem and an "N" router. I have "G" appliances connected and running as well at the same time.
The home modem and WiFi system are working well (I'm on a laptop using WiFi now). I have checked the password and it is entered correctly. I have tried to "forget" and re-enter the Home system WiFi info to no avail.
I used the Skyrocket's manage applications to try to stop some of the apps that I wasn't using (Social Hub, for example) but they keep reloading. I went to the apps pages and drag/dropped those I wasn't using...they are still showing up as being in place (and taking up space) but that didn't appear to get rid of them either.
I tried a reboot. No change. Other than ATT's general disagreeableness, and my lack of knowledge on this operating system, what's causing the problem and how can I fix it? If I have a file that isn't loading or an app that isn't loading, how do I replace/repair them? What files & apps MUST run to use the WiFi?
Thank you for your assistance in this matter, I have read all the "WiFi disabled" links that the forum suggested prior to this posting.

Hm, have you tried connecting at any other wireless spots? If you can connect to other wireless routers I would try resetting your router, see if it can connect to an all-default wireless router. If it can't connect to any wireless routers, well, you can either try flashing a different ROM or, since I get the impression you're not into rooting/flashing/messing with your phone, just take it back to the store and make them give you a new one.

I thank you!
I will try that though it was working at work the other day.
If someone has another idea, I'd like to hear that too.
Cordially,
Kev.

WiFi disabled: Solved!
OK, I finally figured it out. I had read all of the WiFi posts on the thread that mentioned WiFi & disabled. One from 2006 was for a different (ancient) phone.
My GF has an old XP desktop PC which is connected to the network via Ethernet cable. For some undetermined reason, when it hooks up to the home network, it locks any new system that is not running out. If they're up and running when it boots up, everything is fine. If they're shut off or the WiFi isn't connected, they're locked out.
The solution is to get rid of the old PC. The 2006 poster said that his phone would not connect to his WiFi if anything else connected at a different speed. Evidently this is a related phenomenon.
(At least I didn't mess the thing up!)

[Q] [Help Required] Wifi Problem, but nothing seems to fix this.

For a month or so I've been having wifi problems with my phone.
It's one you often see discussed:
either A)
wifi scans, picks up presence of network [with excellent signal strength] then, on click, doesn't try to connect just changes to say out of range.
Alternatively B), it simply doesn't see the network at all despite me being 2 feet from the router.
This happens with my home router [we have two, neither work] and with what seems like every other router too.
I am currently running the 6.1.1 version of ARHD [with android 4.0.3].
I can provide any information that might help, I'm not at all bad with this sort of stuff normally, although not collosally experienced with android.
Thank you for your time.
PS. Steps already tried to fix problem:
Power cycling router, installing different ROMs,scripted wifi fix for 6.1.1, changing wifi channels, switching router to just b and/or g, wifi fixer app, removing authentication, using different router, changed radio, changed kernel, and possibly more.
Please any advice would be fantastic, I struggle to use this phone without wifi.

Try the wifi with your sim in a differnet phone - when that works choose a different rom make sure you go back to a stock RUU before the new rom

I've never been able to connect to a wifi network on my sensation. I've tried it with the stock 2.3.4 ROM, and with all of the ARHD ROMS.
I can see wifi networks, and enter the network password, but it'll never connect.
So I'd be interested in any solution for this problem also.

Have you tried on different routers? I can only assume the routers channel is set to one that the device won't work on? Have you changed your router settings before
Sorry my bad only read half,

OK what is your devices mac address showing up as? Maybe it's the same as another device on your network?
Have you done a full wipe of your device?
Does your bluetooth work? (same antenna as wifi)
Has it ever worked?
Have you tried disabling all your routers security?

[Q] Captivate - EMail sometimes auto downloads, sometimes not

The problem I am having is that my email sometimes downloads automatically but sometimes it doesn't. If I notice it hasn't downloaded, I do a manual request to check email which sometimes goes and gets the email right away, but sometimes even that manual process only results in email showing up 20 minutes later. I am using social hub for my email as it seems to be the only program that brings in both pop and exchange email, plus it manages text messages as well.
This happens anywhere regardless of being connected to wifi or not. I have a data plan and this happens in my home area as well as when I am travelling. In my mobile network settings I have both "use packet data" and "Data roaming" enabled.
Has anyone run into this? The odd thing is that it sometimes works so it doesn't seem to be a setting issue.
This is a Rogers phone that I unlocked and played with various replacement ROMs, but then loaded the rogers 2.3 ROM using instructions from this site.

There is another problem - my wifi doesn't always connect automatically to saved wifi sites. That issue might be related, but since it is a different issue, I have started another thread for it. here

WiFi & LTE Connection Issues

Hello all!
My wife is running a T-Mobile Note 10+ and having major issues with the WiFi and mobile cell service. She constantly runs into her apps like Netflix and Plex saying she has no connection. She's complained of the WiFi being bad and having to disconnect from it, and then she can use LTE to watch shows, and then sometimes LTE stops working and connecting to WiFi fixes it.
Here's the thing. I finally was able to see it when it was having a fit on the WiFi. Going into the connection settings showed it was connected to our 5GHz WiFi at 7Mbps connection speed. Nothing was loading. This was on a 1300Mbps link. I disconnected from the WiFi and reconnected to it, without moving the phone's location, and voila! It reconnected at 300 something Mbps and everything started working. I believe it may be doing the same with LTE as it cuts out randomly and constantly. I saw it myself while we were driving somewhere and she couldn't load websites. My phone (OnePlus 7 Pro) is on T-Mobile as well and I have NEVER run into these issues. We are on the same provider / plan.
Her phone is fully updated and isn't rooted. I haven't touched it as a tech nerd so it's running as a total consumer as far as settings go (haven't played with APN or wireless radio or anything).
Has anyone else experienced these issues? Does anyone have any ideas to fix this?

Did you try a different wlan access point? Actually i am on the Note 10 with Exynos. Wlan and LTE are working nice for me.
Perhaps your problem is meanwhile solved through an update.

I have the same problem, mainly in LTe but sometimes also in Wifi
ANyone found a workaround ?

i've been having this issue constantly since the march security update. Didn't notice it before but it'll disconnect from my wifi, still recognise it but wont reconnect unless i restart my phone

Same here. Brazil SM-N975F.
