Wifi will not enable

Hello,
i recently installed the htc custom rom (1.25.405) on my device. after install all was great, but after some time i began having trouble enabling the wifi from comm manager. whenever i press the wifi tab in the comm manger wifi keeps staying off. i had the same problem on my wizard and there the solution was enabling the wifi preload from the registry (HKLM->Comm->TNETWLN1->Parms). these string dont exist on the cruise.
does anyone know of a fix to this problem or how to enable the wifi preload on the cruise ?

Try your luck at HKLM\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms
Olioaglio

hey Olioaglio,
thanks for your replay. tried looking there already.
usually there were two strings needed changing:
HTCPreloadStatus-->dword, decimal 1 (standard 0)
PreloadWifi-->dword, decimal 1 (standard 0)
cant seem to find the equivalent inside \TNETW12511\parms.

Soulution found:
HKLM\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms\HTCPowermode=1

Seems like i spoke too soon. the wifi problem was resolved for a while and then came back.
i flashed the black widow skinny v.2.5 rom and again the wifi worked for a while until it stopped enabling (when i press the wifi button in the comm manager it will turn on and immediatly off). i tried flashing the bepe 0.65 rom and even the latest radio rom (1.58.25.14) but nothing helps.
does anybody have an idea ?????

Hi, I have the same problem; wifi is always disabled.
I tried to modify the key:
HKLM\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms\HTCPowermode=1
and it seems to work ... but after only 10 minutes, I tried, it is still disabled.
When I click on Comm.Manager to able Wifi, it load a few seconds and after it is still off.
ROM is 1.24.408.1 ITA, original.
Radio is 1.58.21.23, original.
Thanks

Yep, I had the very same problem from the beginning until I installed Bepe's Rom v.64. Then I installed Goodlink for work and that ruined it again.
Sounds to me like some software conflicts somewhere that need to get fixed...
Anyway, you can try Bepe's latest ROM. Just don't install that piece of rubbish called Goodlink.

Well it seems that it is indeed a program conflict, i have tried to disable each process running until i found the culprit, it was the Pocket controller loader, after disabling it wifi would disable without any problems, lets see how lost this will last...

would installling WMWifiRouter stuff up the wifi. I have a stock polaris and havent upgraded the rom. Wifi was working fine, even after I installed WMWifiRouter. Then after about a couple of weeks, wifi just would not come on at all. But strangely, then i tried to fire up the WMWifiRouter, it would go up to a point past saying "WLAN on" and then stop at "Waiting for ICS".
In the end, I had to hard reset but have been afraid to re install WMWifiRouter. I was using a .92 version i think but now it's payware and I havent got the new one either.
Jackinabox - how do I disable the processes like you did?
thanks

Hey arul,
you can download schap'sTaskmanger here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1700898
or here for Taskmgr v.2.7 (not the latest there is version 2.9 somehwere out ther but i cant seem to find the link, but this one will do the trick) :
http://rapidshare.com/files/12973974/TaskMgrv2.7_WM2005_upxed.zip.html

thanks jackinabox. will give it a try.

Hello all,
does anyone solved the WiFi problem?

it seems to be a program conflict try to find the program that causes it by enabling the running program processes on your pda.

hmm thanks promissed new ROM update from HTC is really needed

Have you paring your Cruise with your laptop via BT?? do that first, and you have/can surf with your phone so the connection settings are allright??. If you have this 2 done right all you do is open Internet Sharing->Bluetooth PAN-> connect and go to BTnetwork on your laptop klic connect and you are in the net. I use my Cruise as a modem and its works just perfect!! I use a BT Dongle, have no BT built in my laptop
Look here http://www.wifizard.com/tutorialsXP/generic_bluetooth_pan/index.htm
hope this help
What are you doing with the Windows Update?? you never find anything. totaly useless.

Thank you, Bodisson, for publishing your /autoupdate data. Unfortunately it is not enough to make "working" Windows Update.

As far as i know there aren't any update packages... so even if WU works it won't do anything...

WIFI problem need help!

Balur said:
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.

Orange SPV E650 + WIndows Mobile 6.5 (or any rom!) internet problems

Hi there,
I am having some very annoying problems with my phone and getting it to connect to the internet. I have the Orange branded SPV E650 and have flashed it with the new Windows Mobile 6.5 beta rom. Strangely (as with other roms aswell so Im not saying its a problem with them rom!) I cannot access the internet on it. I have tried going to the Orange website and getting the GPRS connection settings sent and they saved fine and I can see them but IE still wont connect with the following error: "Failed to connect to the internet. Data coverage may be unavailable". So after those settings didn't work I deleted them and tried using the Connection Setup application which retrieved settings based on my Orange network provider and being based in UK. That also inputs settings on to my phone but also IE still fails to connect. By doing it that way it sets up a proxy in connections but unsure if that helps, as whether i keep it and try to connect or delete it I still can't connect! I have signal so thats not the problem and also Orange say everythings ok at their end. Also in comms manager with the Data connections I cannot turn it on, a "G" icon on the signal icon in task bar flashes on and off, toggles between them like its trying to connect but does nothing eventually.
Im really stuck and tried different roms but experience the same!
Any ideas guys? Would love to receive some of the great knowledge found here!
Many thanks!
Craig

Hi!

when i too faced the same problem, i tried this... u can also try, it might work for you too.
in the internet explorer, goto tools, options select connect to internet, instead of auto!

Hi guys,
I had the same problem with my SPV E650 ( aka HTC VOX ) . The problem is related to the WIFI adapter who keeps its IP number although not in use. You have to release manually the IP , or , better , go to : Start , Settings, Connections , select GPRS but do not click on it ! , ratter go menu ( bottom right ) , Advanced ( the only option ) , and there on Internet connection go to Orange Internet instead of Automatic, and voila ! ( or at least for me it worked fine ! )
Liciniu
P.S. please keep me posted. Thanks ,

Hi all,
I have the exact same problem. The phone, SPV E650 (HTC S710), orange branded, reflashed to WM6.5, tried more versions, but i can't get it to connect to the internet. No one found any solutions?

I have the same problem but even with the wifi, is
Explorer from MSN as I fix that?
Mine is a S710

ok, I found the solution in my case. the operator had to start the internet service for my number. weirdly, I had it activated some time ago...

hi guys, i no longe have a vox, now got a Touch Pro 2 (and loving it!) but the problem was that despite my request for internet with my service provider, they hadn't actually activated it, so all my attempts to solve a 'problem with my phone' were pointless lol. good luck guys!

I've exchanged my Vox to TP2 too. which Rom do you use on it?

I use The Cell Series V6 (eagerly awaiting V7 soon to be released!). It is perfect for me, it is fast and responsive, no problems with any feature like bluetooth/wifi not working and it has far better graphics than any other rom I have tried. If you haven't tried it i would suggest you do!
How about u?

Win Mob 6.5
I suggest an upgrade to winmo 6.5. It’s a great OS and works brilliantly on the Touch 2 Pro. The Honeycomb menu makes browsing so convenient. The windows Market Place is packed with Many applications that will interest you!

[Q] WIFI/ICS problem with Wp7.8 HD7

My HD7 is not identifying any WIFI network and ICS shows "Internet Sharing isn't currently available"
This problem is there with wp7.8 only, its not there in previous versions...
Please help me! :crying:

If doing a hard reset doesn't fix that, then reflash the rom...
what rom are you using?

I've tried all 7.8 ROMS..
Not even a single 7.8 ROM fixes this problem..
In Earlier versions, WIFI and ICS are working properly..
Only in 7.8 ROMS, its not working

Sorry but...
That's B.S.
I'm using Dynamics V2.0 and I used ICS, and no problem with it, the same with Deepshining ROMs, they work.
Remember that the ICS option uses password security unless you don't want that.

I realise that language may be totally acceptable where you come from but to many, telling them that they are speaking "BS" might come across as being quite offensive.
there is clearly a problem otherwise the OP wouldn't have posted the question, So its not "BS" but the answer may be simple or even a misunderstanding, talk it through with them, perhaps you may provide an answer, perhaps its a device specific problem.
Just a wee word of advice, that's all!
happy new year my friends!

Dear Friends,
I'm still having this issue.. Please help me!!

I had a similar problem on my Nokia Lumia 710 after flashing a custom ROM (I don't remember which, maybe Rataplan?) but I solved it by downloading the Nokia Network Setup app from the Marketplace, which automatically setup my APN for data. I think HTC has a similar one called HTC Connection Manager, so I would try that. Hope that helps!

Dear phantomsniper,
Thanks for reply. But you are talking about Data connection. But my problem is with the WIFI and Internet sharing. My data connection is working fine. Please let me know if you have any workaround for this issue.
Regards,
Karty

That's the strange thing actually. My data connection on the phone worked fine, but the internet connection sharing didn't. After running the Network Setup app, both worked perfectly. I don't know why, but my assumption is that Windows Phones have two sets of APNs. One for regular data and one for internet sharing.
In my case, I think the ROM had the AT&T APN for regular data, but not the one for internet sharing, so the Nokia app fixed that. I've never owned an HTC windows phone, so I can't comment on how they may work. I guess it's worth a try though. I hope this helps, and good luck!

did anyone find a fix for this issue?
idk, I've updated to 7.8 (8862) and used it for more than 1 year, no WiFi or Bluetooth issues
while most users had this problem after they've updated to 7.8 take a look at this discussion with Microsoft Support
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...e/a15a3040-72e9-447f-8aaf-f1326bbf6b4a?page=6
I tried to flash an old stock rom, it worked.! but only for few hours :/
I tried to flash custom 7.8 roms nor NWA or Deepshining fixed it
well I've noticed that if you repeatedly do a hard reset for many times it works! but only for few minutes,, I'm not sure but it seems that WiFi fails again right after phone been locked or goes to standby mode.
pleeeeease, if someone have found a fix for this, or can do a workaround to fix this issue, please share it with us.
