Hey everybody, I've upgraded my HTC Sensation to Android 4.0.3, and It worked well except for Wi-Fi, when I turn it on, my Wi-Fi network appears for 3-5 seconds then it's gone and this message keep showing "Turning Wi-Fi on..."
I tried to reset the phone and the router but it's not working, I also tried factory reset and it didn't work
please if anybody can help me with that, I will really appreciate it.
thank you in advance

Few weeks back htc released small update 15 mb one which supposed to fix wifi and Bluetooth issue.. That fix was included in almost all custom rom's.. So can you check for update again.. You might get the update.. And after the update it fixes your problem

thanks man,
it seems that it's essential to root the device, I didn't try it before and I'm afraid to do something wrong and lose my mobile. if anything like that happened could I go back to a restore point or something like that???
I'm so sorry for any inconvenient, but that's what new people always do

you can backup all your data and apps to your SD Card using one of the programs on the market. I use My Backup Pro. Once that's done, you can follow the steps to root your device. I think its very difficult to lose it because if anything, you can just put the file for your stock ROM on the SD Card, boot into bootloader and flash that or even try running the RUU to flash the original ROM for your device. Hope that helps

Well, I guess so. I have contacted HTC a month and a half ago complaining about this problem, no response even till now lol!
Don't worry the process is very simple. It took me about 20 minutes to use WiFi again

Ok so I have successfully rooted my htc inspire 4g...I got the sound working somehow, and I do not really know how. I think I installed this rom, but I do not really know if I did or not. Well anyways I got the sound to work again on my phone after rooting, but the wifi is not working. It connects to the network (or so it seems), but then it does not work online or anything. I went to check my wifi client list on my computer, and it is showing up, but it is not working on the phone. PLEASE HELP!!!
Try a different Rom and see if it fixes it or reinstall the Rom and wipe everything.

I know it sounds very simple, but just try and rebooting the phone if you haven't already, also turn on WiFi and data then turn on airplane mode and then turn off airplane and shut off data...might work
If not I agree with ^^^^ just clear everything and flash a new ROM.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
try re flashing rom. make sure you do a full wipe( cache, data, system) before reflashing. if that doesnt work try a different rom. they are not all created equal
Yeh,do a full wipe using clockworkmod (on recovery) and reflash the rom.

Try to fake unroot with OTA Rootkeeper. It's in the Google Play Store.

That's crap that a game developer would deny you access to a game because your rooted. It's none of their business what we do with our phones. I would uninstall and never look back because of principal, and voice my frustration in a review.

Typically any Official update will break #SU access and sometimes cause a serious headache in the process.
If you are rooted, do not apply the update. Just wait for a kitchen baked variant to be released.

The ones in the radio thread stickied in the development section are ok to flash. They are setup properly for root. Bluetooth definitely got some attention in this update. Much more stable connection than before, not perfect, but much better and livable.

maybe fixes visual voicemail bug?
For about 6 weeks I've been having issues with the stock visual voicemail app force-closing every time I tried to use it. I tried going into the app's settings area and clearing its data, then re-enabling it in the caller app, all to no avail.
I just installed this update and it looks like my VVM is working again, so I'm hoping this was indeed a known issue and was fixed.
(FTR, I'm not sure that a factory reset before the update wouldn't have fixed the problem, but I didn't feel like re-installing all my apps so I let it go and just used the old-school voicemail number for a while.)
Is there anyway possible for me to get the update because i had s-off and then i wanted to unroot but i used gfree so i had to use gfree and ran into a crap load of problems leaving me right now with s-off and no root permissions . i need to get a new mytouch because this one randomly restarts and i cant send in one with s-off... can anyone help me out?

Is there anything in this radio other than a new radio and new hboot?
I'm s-off via engineering bootloader, NOT gfree. Is it worth the trouble to use gfree so I can ruu and stay s-off, accept the update, then flash clockworkmod recovery via bootloader, then go back to cm7?
That's exactly what I did with the sensation.

Did you put your serial number in the box? I just put in my serial number and it told me that i don't need the fix
Look in the about phone section for your serial number
Even I tried it but I guess as desire s was in automatically update category, it will tell you don't need manual update.

well there could be many solutions, just a lot of them may not help
Is it only quattro causing problems?
Did you do a full wipe before switching to quattro?
Have you tried the wifi fix in the link?
Where to download?
Sounds interesting. How do I actually get that file to test it out? Webpage gives just the hint, that it was pushed already, but no download.

you have probably recieved the update already, this update i think has to do with wifi passwords that can be accesed through third party apps.. i read about this issue somewhere recently, it has something to do with good old htc sense.

this is wifi security fix not a wifi performance fix....
Sometimes when I look at my phone I will see the icon for data usage at the top of the screen. The wifi has been turned on and the mobile network is using up my credit?
This either has something to so with app synching(but I have auto-sync turned off) or some other sneaky setting.
As of right now I have checked the "restrict background data" box so I will see if that solves the problem.
This usually happens after being connected to my laptop wifi but not only then. Has anyone had this problem or found a solution?
Which ROM and firmware are you on bro? This was an issue with ROM's based on old firmwares.The latest InsertCoin, ARHD and Elegancia ROM's don't have this issue.
My XE does this too, I'm on the standard OTA ICS update. I was wondering if it was something to do with using Juicedefender, do you use it?
If you are on stock ICS, then this problem should be solved with the update after upgrading. It's a setting update, about 15mb. I had the same problem after updating to ICS too. I think somebody posted about it earlier.

First u need to root your phone .. Here is the perfect tutorial for you.
Then Just replaced the stock Sense3.6 files with the ones from Sense 4 using Root Explorer.
The attached the files are from Sense 4 rom.
I dont remember from which post i got to know this. But credit goes to the certain developer.
P.S: Backup ur Rom before doing anything. Noone ll be reponsible if anything happens.

Sorry I useless with tech words. The software info say Android 4.0.3, HTC sense 3.6, Software number 3.32.401.5
And for clarity, I don't use any apps really I just use the base ones that came with the phone.
Thanks for the posts. I turned background data on again because the messaging app was and still is giving me trouble where it stays on "loading..." for one contact. Haven't had the original issue occur since I posted but I also haven't used it on my laptop hotspot.
Are you using a stock rom now..??
I've noticed my phone do this as well (see ROM I'm using in the signature), but only after midnight, like it's got some kind of sleep mode so you wouldn't be bothered by notifications in the middle of the night.
I started noticing this when I first tried OrDroid and it stayed that way when I went back to ARHD. Don't think I've seen the phone do that before using OrDroid for the first time (but maybe it did and I just didn't notice it)
