Wifi Issues - HTC Desire S

Uh hi.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one with this problem. But my wifi on my android is painfully weak.
All my other devices don't suffer from this, however.
When my ipod touch or laptop is connected to the same wifi, they almost have full bars. But my desire s with andromadus has one or no bars. Same place. And its not the rom because I have had many other roms.
Id like to know if this is just me? I'm guessing this might be the radio issue. I'm using the latest one I flashed through bootloader.

Superuser FCs randomly

I am using the rooted stock Rom that was discontinued. I haven had any issues with it till now.
I noticed he created it with an older SU then what was in the market. I tried upgrading though the market but was getting an error the it was not signed correctly.
Now I have flashed the correct one from here on XDA. Now randomly I get a FC on com.noshufou.Android.su and it just happens. Can't reproduce it by trying it just happens when it wants to.
Is there a fix for this?

Flash a different rom using cwm. Android revolution is great!

When FC's happen intermittently and randomly, wiping your cache and flashing is the way to go. I've had the same problem but they usually always followed flashing something or trying to install/uninstall something on a non-stock rom. That always fixed problems for me. I agree with above post. Revolution Rom is great
I will try that when I get back to the house on Friday.
BTW this phone really rocks. Much better then the Cappy I just sold.

My inspire has wifi problems

Ok I have had my inspire for about a week now and yes it's rooted. I have been having problems with my wifi saying unable to scan for networks. Go into advanced settings and mac address is unavailable. And when wifi doesn't work I am also not able to use tethering. Sometimes everything works fine and sometimes it doesn't work for hours. Suggestions would be appreciated

Have you flashed anythingI, or are still on stock kernel.. or have you ever flashed a kernel?
I have flashed 4 different roms and get the same issue every time. I am new to the android world so I have not flashed any kernels by themselves.

Problems in call

Hello everybody
I am using ordroid 5.0 Rom in my HTC sensation mobile phone.
I am experiencing a major calling related problem.
Sometimes the other person hardly hear what I speak, sometimes like muted.
Sometimes it would become better if I change position.
But I am able to always hear what the other person says.
We have two mobile phones using same operator in home , but only in my mobile phone I am experiencing this problem, the other one being Samsung focus mobile phone whicih doesn't have this problem.

I'm running OrDorid 5.0 as well. I don't have that problem. Possibly wipe and re-flash the ROM? Could possibly be a mic defect.
Change roms if that big of a problem

Actually i am not blaming the rom at all for this problem.
I am suspecting the radio / firmware or operator to be the culprit.
Can people who don't have such problem in OrDroid post their Firmware / Radio versions ?

happens to be a problem with CM10 i believe
This problem I've nicknamed the dammit dammit sunofabeach problem. It seems to only effect a handful of us when flashing anything other than a sense based Rom. I've searched, poked, prodded, yelled, bribed and done things im truly ashamed of to find a fix to this problem... No dice homie....

Its narrowed down to 2wire routers.. I've tried admin passwords that didn't help.. only other advice I got was to buy another wireless router and connect them via ethernet

I have found it to be far better when the SSID is broadcasted. Also sometimes enabling/disabling WPS quickly helps. or just continually trying to connect and moving around. Sense roms do not have any issues with them.
Worked for me
I had the same issues last night after doing a fresh install of CM10 using [KERNEL][12/31] rohan.kernel.b7 [Linux 3.0.57][GCC 4.7][2.0ghz][S2W][INTELLI][SIO] After a fresh flash of stock kernel the problem went away. I then REFLASHED Rohans kernel and all is well. It seems some of these phones are finikey with kernels, so if one may not work for you it may for the other guy......I am convinced this is a kernel issue, so flash and reflash and let me know the results.
Usually it connects automatically within range, its just when you want it to connect that it refuses. It also kills battery constantly trying to connect. It's a known issue between the router and AOSP roms.

I was having this probelm with my 2wire =/
Now, I don't have it.. For some odd reason. I'm running the newest build for MIUIv4 with Rohans b7. I have yet to have connectivity issues.
Try flashing my MIUIv4 and see what happens?

WiFi on custom roms

Hello noob here, I have installed two different Roms on my at&t HTC one x akop jb 4.1 and cyanogen 10 and both don't play well with my uverse router .WiFi will not connect in either. Is there a ROM that might work. Don't really want to get a new router. Is the viper xl a ROM that might alleviate the problem or should I just stick with the stock ROM? The WiFi works fine in the stock ROM. Thanks so much for any help
Brad

If you have security enabled on the router, try a different type. For instance if WPA, try WPA2. WEP is not recommended, as its weak security, and also I think WEP is known to cause issues with this phone. Also try simply power cycling the router, if you haven't already.
Just an FYI. Cm will change your Mac address. So device specific for router will block the newly flashed cm ROM. Wep2 definitely recommended.

Thanks I decided to try viper xl and I have had no problems with it so far except for widget stopped working. No problem at all with WiFi working I don't think I did anything different on the installation. I am loving Viper xl.

I've heard Sense based ROMs' WiFis work just overall better than CM. I'm on the latest CM10 nightly and wifi has been shaky for me and a few others.
