I am trying to understand the internals of or get the source code to a part of Comm Manager, the "settings -> Wireless lan -> Menu -> Network cards dialog.
Does anyone have an alternative one, or source code to this thing?
When I press a secure access point that is already configured, then press cancel, I get a "connect" option. Pressing "connect" at this point succeeds, where it does not on power up. Pressing this "connect" does something different and I need to know what.
Source code, APIs, general info, anything would be great, what is happening here that is different than when you power on the device?
This is turning into a desperate situation, if you can solve this you can make some money.

Is there anyway to do this....Some times I turn on my PPC and need to access something and out of no where, the promp comes up and there really is no easy way of cancelling it.....I know I know....why not shut off the Wi-Fi, i rather not go back and forth and back and forth......kinda think about it......We need a new Connection Manager.
Edit.
On what?
On my droid x you can turn off the notification in wireless settings.
In the WiFi section of your phone, click menu, then advanced.
I went to the C.Manager. I can't get it to work right.
This is what it's set to:
Wireless Connection(Disables all wireless connection): ON
In-Flight Internet(Enable Wi-Fi and Direct push): OFF
Phone(Change phone settings): ON
Bluetooth(Turn on Bluetooth): ON
Wi-Fi (Connect to Wi-Fi Network): ON
MS Direct Push(Retrieve Outlook mail as it arrives): OFF
Data Connection(setup data connection): ON
With it like this, if I do a reset on the HD2, when it reboots, I see a Wi-Fi icon at the top. I click the icon, it says "Multiple Connections Detected", I click on the the wi-fi icon, New window opens titled Wi-Fi. Listed says wifi(Turn on wifi):OFF. Next line says Wi-Fi Networks, which has nothing listed.
I never changed of of the wi-fi stuff till today. I did do ONE regedit, for the Wireless N feature, but I changed it back when I got all these problems. And no, I don't know if I had this issues b4 that one edit change. And yes, I did a soft reset after every reg change.
1) I tried clicking the wi-fi on this screen.button pushes down but nothing happens. I press "X" and close the window
2) I launch Comm Manager. I try clicking the Wireless Connections Icon. It' still says ON. BUT Inflight Internet changes to:ON, and Phone changes to:OFF, Bluetooth changes to:OFF, Data-Connection is greyed out.
I press it again. Busy sign comes up, nothing changes.
3) I press Phone. It switches to:ON. And InFlight Internet changes:OFF
4) I press bluetooth, and it turns: ON
5) I press Wi-Fi and still nothing changes(Still:ON)
6) I press Data connection. It switched to: ON
7) I click In-Flight:OFF, changes to ON, and turns off PHONE.
8) I press InFlight again, nothing happens.
9) I press Phone, and it turns on the phone. and turns OFF the In-flight.
So... Wireless Connections:ON and the Wi-Fi:ON. Neither one does anything when I click it. Both is always GREEN ON.
ALSO
Under Settings-menu-all setting.
I click Connections and selected Wi-Fi.
"Turn on Wi-Fi" says: ON
I can click on it, and it says OFF
If I check Comm Manager, Wi-Fi is still ON and so is Wireless Connections.
I do a reset of the HD2
ANd I still get the wi-fi telling me theres a signal.Nothing changed. And when I go into "Turn wifi on", its checked again.
That little attenna I get after soft reset, only started after the regedit. I never had the wi-fi on b4 now. But I checked and that is reset to show 1.
"39. Speed Up Web Page Loading Considerably
The following registry tweak will enable almost instantaneous web page loading in the web browser. It apparently enables wireless N mode but seems to work with cellular data too. Go to:
HKLM/Comm/BCMSDDHD1/Parms
11nModeDisable = Change from 1 to 0"
Can't turn off wifi either
I have exactly the same problem, will be forced to hard reset, I think. Does anyone have any ideas?
So, my phones data connection will turn off and i cant send/recieve any data. When i pull up the top little status bar and try to press the button to turn my data connection on, it goes straight to the settings/setup for data connections. The actual button doesnt switch from off to on. Now, as i was typing this post, my data just came on by itself for a minute. now its off again. why wont my little button work lol
I came here through google looking for a solution as I had the exact same problem.
managed to fudge some result:
Go to Settings -> Wireless Controls
Then at the bottom go to Menu -> Connections -> Select Networks
You should have your internet connection (T-Mobile, O2, etc) selected for both drop down boxes. Click on edit for each one and edit again but don't change any settings just click cancel.
Should be working now
Hello every one,
When I select "data connexion off" it comes automatically back on "on" position from time to time as if a software is forcing the use of it.
Is there a way to force it down?
For your information, I've been struggling for a while with my conexions overall as the flight mode prevent my gps from working so I tend to use the phone in normal mode except that I select data conexion off and I dont enter rhe code pin to prevent any communications! Even though, I still get some extra fee from my provider due to data transfert! I have a french HD2 working with bouygues (french provider) and I have been charged 8 euros despite all my effort to avoid any data transfert!
thanks for your help.
You can use NoData to prevent your phone from accessing data feature of the phone. Look here for the application http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1325870. I think it in post #7

On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Menu > All Settings. Tap Connections > Wi-Fi and then tap the Wireless Networks button. The Configure Wireless Networks screen then opens. Under My ISP Tap Add New (or Menu > Add New) modemconnection, give it the name "Offline" and select mobile connection (GPRS). Then Next give the accespoint "Offline" again, go to Next and done.
Now to go offline select under existing connections under My ISP Offline. To go online again select your phone provider.
With this methode you don't need to install any program
On my wife's and my own Galaxy s4 running FreeGS4 v2.0 ROM - the hotspot works via menu, I have a toggle widget for it that works too. I can connect up with multiple devices to either phone...
But neither phone will allow more than 2 devices to connect at any one time.
I went into the LAN settings to confirm settings are correct - and they are, DHCP is active and allow up to 100 connects - this was default, i tried lower and lower numbers, all the way down to 8, but neither phone will allow more than 2 connections at the same time.
I tried to toggled airplane mode on and off, I've tried rebooting. I've tried manually entering the settings.
I'm starting to worry that it is a flaw in the ROM itself, but a friend of mine who also has the same phone and ROM as I do claims he can connect more than 2. So I'm not sure but I am at hair pulling out stage at this point.
Anyone have any ideas?
edit - search works! I found the solution, and I feel 3% more stupid for somehow missing it earlier

go to settings - hotspot - "press on configure->show advanced options->maximum connections" Thanks
Click on configure hotspot and page down in the pop up menu that appears. Click the box that says show advanced options and then set the maximum connections you want to allow. You can also set 2.4ghz or 5.0ghz in this menu.
