Hi all,
Recently i've unlocked my HTC Sensation XE and I'm running the Viper Rom 1.35 now.
When at home, my wifi keeps dropping connection and then reconnects again.
Strange thing; when I'm at work, there is nothing wrong with the signal and the phone keeps the connection.
All the other devices at my home don't have any problems with connection to my wifi.
When i'm on stock rom there is no problem with the wifi.
Can someone tell me what is going wrong or how I can solve it?

Ok I'm having a very annoying issue on my Inspire 4G. The phone recognizes my home wifi network and goes in a loop trying to connect and then reconnect. I have several other devices connecting to the wifi flawlessly - (iMac, iPad, Xbox, etc). Does the Inspire just get weak wifi signal strength, or is there something wrong with my phone? I'm considering returning it to get the Atrix. I also know other people have commented saying that they have this issue also. Is there a fix? Thanks

Had this problem. Went into wifi settings and clicked on the access point that it was trying to connect to. It asked me for my credential storage password or something (different than access point password) and after typing that in all has been well ever since.
i got the same problem.. connected to network but it wont let me use internet at all

Check your battery cover and sim card cover. Make sure that they are both installed properly with no gaps.
If you downgraded you phone using attn1 guide thats well known problem. I had same problem i flashed rom coredroid 6.8 and all is fine now.
htc desire hd/inspire
Hi was wondering if there was a wifi fix for the htc desire s with cm7.1? I have seen other fixes available but non for cm7.1. This is an issue as I can't get wifi in some areas in my house but i can get a connection with my laptop. Any help?
I've S-OFF'ed my Sensation XE and have installed ICS as per thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538032
So this is the official ROM I've installed:
OTA_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105-1.73.401.4_P_release_246589q3t6rh79ci68p68k.zip
All flashed OK, but my WiFi is very unreliable.... 3G isn't that reliable either.. seem to have to reboot the phone to get it working every day or so.
I have tried resetting the phone, but still the same.. thinkiing about going back to Gingerbread...
Anyone else having similar issues?
Thanks
I'm not using the official ROM but ARHD which is based on stock.
I haven't had problems with 3G and WiFi (apart from it turning on randomly).
Does your WiFi and 3G turn off and not reconnect?
ive been having mobile data connection problems with pretty much every ics rom ive tried. its confused/frustrated me as no one will will address the issue or offer any possible solutions. only fix ive found is going to phone info and turning radio off then on, also try resetting apns to default.
@cory0821 : Exactly the same issue.. turning data on and off (either wifi radio or enable/disable mobile data) seems to 'usually' fix the issue, other times it just doesn't work until I reboot.
The other issue I have is that if I leave the WiFi on when it's 'sleeping' - it kills that battery. i.e. WiFi consume 30-40% of battery within 10 hrs.
And if I go into the advanced setting to turn off WiFi when sleeping - it makes the above data issue much worse.
I am very happy with ICS on the Sensation XE in terms of smoothness and functionality, apart from I no longer have working data... I think my next question is how to I get back to Gingerbread at it's not really workable at the moment as a Smartphone.
I'm glad it's not just me as HTC might fix it, but surprised that more people are not having the same issue.
WiFi doesn't turn off... it connects to my home WiFi without any issue (and at work), but even though it's connected, none of the apps seem to be able to send or receive data.
I had the same problem with Wi-Fi after flashing ICS. After asking many times in several threads I finally learned that if you are with T-Mobile ICS will not support Wi-Fi. I don't know the technical details, but I was told T-Mobile had to release an official "T-Mobile" ICS before Wi-Fi would work correctly. No one seems to know when the official version will be released.
I am running coredroid v5 ICS and wifi and wifi calling are now working with tmobile. There are some times that wifi calling is not working 100%, but the wifi network for market, e-mails etc. is working great.
I am having a serious Wi-Fi issue with my sensation 4G.
When i turn on Wi-Fi, it shows a list of available networks for about 5 seconds and then all available networks go away and it doesn't show anything! even if i choose to scan it still wont find anything (even though there are networks and it found them for five seconds).
I have tried with and without sim card, and with different radios but still having the same problem! I have sensation 4G (tmobile) and i am running ICS TMO ROM (rooted).
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Or is anyone else having the same problem?
Apparently there is a Wi-Fi fix for this problem.
But it seems that some of the ROMs have this problem solved already. Does anyone know which firmware or what OTAs have solved this problem?!
OK so iusing my limited intelligence, I managed to root and install Kitkat 4.4.4 rom onto phone (cyanogen).
Now even sitting next to the wifi router i get no more than 2 bars or signal(most usually one bar), if I go upstairs I get no signal at all. My old HTC desire Z works fine though, as does my galaxy tab and partners phone.
I tried the old renaming the phone trick to fix the wifi issues but all i get is "failed to rename device"
any ideas guys? I didnt notice wifi issues before updating rom (but i did only have it a day at the time)
thanks in advance

Have you tried connecting to a different network and seeing if you have connectivity issues with others as well?
Thanks
