wifi - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Is anyone else having problems with a sx-66 and wifi. I have upgraded to all three roms, tried radio rom 1.15 and 1.13 and still no luck. I can see the network and it attempts to connect and then drops. I am trying to connect to a linksys router and I am using wep. I have other PPC's wm5 and wm6 and they all connect no problems. It worked with the 2003se on it. Any ideas would be appreciated. I currently have the xplode rom (fixed version).
greg

I also have a sx66 and i used to have the same problems on different roms. But ever since helmis wm6 rom i have gotten it to work. I am currently using pdaviets rom.
It could just be the rom compatibility.
Im not sure if this is useful but try turning on Wlan first. Then afterwards turn on wifi.

I tried Helmi's rom with no luck, but I think I will reflash it and try again. If I don't follow the procedure that you suggested it will not work at all (wifi won't turn on).
Thanks for the suggestions... I will see if going back to Helmi's works.
greg

hi...
actually i have a helmi's rom.
i had the same problem, but i had discovered that you should turn on the bluetooth first, then turn on the wifi.
be sure you have all programs closed, and if you still haven't do it, softreset the device and try again

wlan manager first after SR
I use Helmi's WM6 rom. Issue was there in WM5 rom too, mostly after soft reset.
Workaround:
after a soft reset I first connect WiFi via WLAN manager (it tries to connect but doesn't). Then I use the COM Manager (I installed the HTC Touch 2.0 from xplode, but previous/other version also OK) and I connect without problem.
Use workaround anytime when WiFi seems non responsive.
Cheers

Ok i will explain something about wifi problems
Our drivers have a lil bugs in wm5-6
Wifi startup procedure in WM6:
1.Turn on the wifi from wireless manager (start=>settings=>connections=>wireless lan)
2.It will turn on and automatically turn off (this is afrer soft reset and you must do it after every soft reset if you want to use wifi on/off trough comm manager. it will stay on only after first usage in a fresh rom)
3.Turn on the wifi trough comm manager
4.It will detect your network(try to connect to it so the newtwork settings to be applyed - encryption, channel, ssid and password) but it will not connect to it
4. turn off wifi and then turn it back on (this time it will detect your network and it will connect)
this procedure works for me every time
i use linksys wrt54gc router with WPA TKIP encryption, tryed this on other routers and AP's also and it work flawlessly

For me, the following 2 steps always work:
1) Turn on 'Wi-Fi' from CommMgr
2) Once inside CommMgr, click (settings;Wireless LAN) and select 'Turn on WLAN'
With these 2 steps, my Wifi ALWAYS turn on (even after soft reset).
Sometimes, step1 by itself turns it on.
I programmed CommMgr to be the bottom-right icon for (Contacts) on screen.
My bottom-left button is programmed for Tomtom6.

check out xplode's HTC WLAN Manager cab
I have just installed xplode's HTC WLAN Manager cab which solved all my WiFi issues. Have a look (and download the file) at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1668110#post1668110
Also post your findings, whether it worked for you etc.
(Is there a way to combine these 2 threads (admin?), they seem a duplication.)
Cheers,

I gave up on Helmi's ROM and thought I would try yours: I wonder if your method might work better on your ROM?? If it doesn't, I assume your solution might!
But I am having problems installing your ROM: I suspect my problem might be blindlingly obvious. Your installation utility sees the BA and correctly identifies my unit and the Helmi OS. I then try to upgrade and with nothing changing on the BA, the computer stops seeing the unit and fails every time with Error 101. Sometimes if I try again it fails with Error 150. Rebooting doesn't seem to help. When it fails, curiously the upgrade utility hangs on the screen and the upgrade panel (with no progress of course) stays transparent in the foreground. I am using Windows XP and the original radio ROM as i cant see how the Radio could affect how the computer sees the BA.
Or is the BA just a buggy unit and should I stick with my Wizard? (I kinda like the thinness and size of the screen on the BA and wonder if VoIP might work better on a 400 MHz unit than a 190 MHz one?). Or has anyone managed to get any of the Wizard WM6 ROMs working on the BA?

licensedtoquill if you want to trash your BA I will take it off your hands.
The Errors you are talking about are old ones, you need to read the Wiki, not what the software says on the screen, I think from memory it says something like, do a normal reset now... ignore that and put the device into Bootloader mode (USB or Serial) then run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe update again.
DO NOT FOLLOW STEP 1 at the following screen. DON'T DO IT!

Yes, I had noticed that one!

It's rather funny, isnt it? It is designed to send you round in circles while showing a completely different device so as to say "Told You So!" But I can't imagine any device which would take this instruction to stop upgrading and start all over again in the middle of the upgrade process???
I do seem to have completely cured my WiFi problems (perhaps slightly labouriosly) by following your instructions. But what is Xplode's .cab file for??? In any event, it doesn't install, preferring to give an 'unsuccessful' error message instead. I wonder if it is supposed to be in Xplode's ROM or if it will be incorporated into some ROM in the future?
What mystifies me is why the BA ROMs are so much smaller than the Wizard ones? That so much seemingly has to be left out of them, to be installed later with all the conflicts which seem to ensue when you do this.
In any event, I am not about to junk my BA as I do prefer it to the Wizard at the moment for the screen size alone. You really can press an icon with a finger if necessary where on the Wizard, you invariably get the wrong one pressed.

Hi,
Ive exactly the same problem as you. It keeps trying to connect but without any success. It shows Wi-Fi: Connecting and after that Wi-Fi: Available/Unavailable, but not Connected. Every time it fails, damn !

Wifi cannot be detected

Hi all!
I have an HTC Prophet, which it appears that it cannot detect any Wifi networks at all. I know that it could do so in the past (autodetect etc). After a point of time this was not working but I though that it was simply some mess up with the configuration.
After, however, having gone through a ROM upgrade and still not seeing any Wifi The little icon appears, it seems to search but nothing is found. I wonder what could be wrong? Since the Prophet has taken a few drops I was wondering whether the wifi card (SDIO) or the antenna - if any - has some kind of problem. Is there anyway to check this (e.g. device manager, open-up the prophet etc)?
What else could the source of the problem be?
Thank you very much in advance!
Same problem here... and it has definitly not dropped.....
Same problem here... would be nice to find any solution...
Same problem here with a Prophet G4 with:
IPL: 2.21.0001
SPL: 2.21.0001
Radio ROM: 02.69.21
OS ROM: WM6 PDAVIET 1.1 8mb pool (10.2.0.8)
Tried with different roms, radio roms, etc... So many hard resets after all. No solution. Wifis aren't detected.
Actually with PDAVIET 4.0.0.4 (8mb pool). Nothing changes. Wifi not detecting anything. Sometimes i got "bluetooth hardware error" message...
Make sure the security of your router is set of. Connect your ppc with your router. If you go to your ppc wifi setting you will noticed your Mac Adress. Enter you mac Adress to your router security list. Enable your router security.

Thanks but that's not the problem. My HP6815 detects wireless networks everywhere. (also at home and at work). Both works without mac filtering or such other security measures.
This is so rare and I am going to create a new Thread because It can be impossible that i'm the only person with this problem in the world.

My XDA never have been droped. No hits, nothing. it has only 1 month of life. And doesn't work. So forgot a HW a problem (at least, created by YOU. Another question is a random hw failure)
Also, i'm wondering WHY i have "Wi-Fi" and "Wireless LAN" icons on Settings/Connections, if both shows similar information (in different ordered tabs).
I've tried 5 different GSM rom versions. (from 2.07 to last 2.69) from 2.47/61 (i'm not sure) i 've that two icons. In early versions, only "Wireless LAN".
Has anybody this TWO icons??
Do i have to do something special to make the wifi work?
Why my prophet can enable Bluetooth and wifi at the same time?
For example, after a soft reset, i can enable Wifi. (but doesnt detect nothing, of course). In that point, i CANT enable bluetooth in CommManager. I tap on the icon, but it reverts to disabled.
i'm frustrated
wifi not working
I have the same problem. Yes I too have the same icons, and I have also tried different roms. I have also tried wififofum, but that didn't work either. If anyone have a solution, please be kind and tell us.

WiFi - Software or Hardware

I have been seeking help in the following thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=301497) on how get my WiFi Working on my T-Mobile MDA with little success. If you read the tread you will find the following:
Wifi Router:
WRT56G Linksys, set in b/g mode and WPA-PSK secured
Other Wifi Devices
Acer Laptop - connects no problem.
iPaq 6315 - (T-Mob) Connects no problem.
Both devices easily connect to other routers and networks without problems.
My MDA
SID unlocked
CID Recently Unlocked
Latest T-Mob ROM
RegKeys - dot11SupportedRateMask (1) and ... RateMaskG (8) are believed to be accurate and viewed through SKTools Registry Explorer.
BlueTooth and IR can communicate with Laptop and iPaq.
About the Wifi
When I go to COMM Manager and click the wifi button, it shows the windows loading icon in the middle of the screen... it rotates for about 20 seconds then disappears and goes back to the wifi off status display. If I go to Wifi settings it does not let me enter any information into the settings.
I have also tried the djvw_htc_wizard_optimizer.cab which was supposed to fix the RegKeys set in the T-Mob shipped Wizard Settings, but that did not work either.
So I am looking for a few answers and some direction.
Firstly - What software, ROM, cabs, etc can I try to make the wifi work (provide links if available).
Secondly - What other registry Keys might be affecting the functionality of the wifi?
Third - If nothing else works, what kind of tests or repairs can be done to fix the hardware responsible for the wifi?
I know it has wifi access. The mfg specs say so, the forums and other resources say so, but nothing I have done or found has fixed the problem...
thanks for the help.

If you have reinstalled the official TMobile ROM on your phone and you still have this issue, then you appear to have a hardware issue with your MDA (just as I indicated in my last post to you in the other thread). If its under warranty, then call T-Mobile and tell them the WiFi doesn't work. They will probably have you try things, and then send you a new replacement device and then you'll be good to go.
And yes, these devices do have WiFi (I use WiFi on my 8125 all the time) and I know it works on the MDA out of the box (a friend of mine has one that is completely stock and he uses WiFi on it). So this issue is definetly with your phone (either a bad rom flash (which I doubt, but its possible) or its hardware (most likely it appears now after discussions in the other thread)).
Good luck...
To get your device to connect to the router is one matter - do you use AES or TKIP? Stock WM5 doesn't do AES.
Now, if the WiFi light turns on, have you tried using WiFiFoFum? If it doesn't, you might want to have a look at the power management states in the registry. I followed a bit of your thread but never read it through so I'm not sure what you have tried.
Power Management Settings??? Elaborate on this please...
Also router is TKIP.
Wizard is second hand, I live in Belize and thus warranty is probably invalid. So unfortunately, that will not work.
What are the chances of a ROM flash not working for just the WIFI.
Thanks for the help...

Wifi won't turn on.

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

I don't have Universal, But did you test an official rom or a cooked rom ?! because some of the cooked roms don't have the right wifi driver
I don't think its the driver, since 3 different ROMs, and no one else has complained about such thingcs in any of those ROM's, also it does work sometimes but thats maybe 1 in 20 reboots.

we need a solution plz
hello people, fist time poster here. had my uni for about a month now. very useful device, I was loving using the wifi until 10 mins ago when the whole device turned off randomly whilst browsing through wifi. plugged it in to charge, when starting up I get a couple of errors saying certain things won't start. now wifi doesn't start and I get the same problems as others on here. do we have a solution to this?? also, can I actually turn this device off? I've tried holding the power button on for 20+ seconds and had no joy.

You mean "really" off, like as no battery would be inside?
Nope, you can't
You can switch the active pda part off and set it to silent, but this wouldn't prevent the device from switching back on on phonecalls. Even if you turn off the radio stack it still would power the display's backlight on and show a notifier if a reminder was set up.
Really turning it off is only possible by removing the battery. Yes, it is a windows mobile device.
Concerning your problems after the crash you should be fine by coldbooting after recharging the battery. The latter one often causes some troubles with the Uni.

WiFi also dead but on a HTC Artemis
Hi Guys,
I have the same problem but on my HTC Artemis aka XDA Orbit. Only occurred when I was flashing with different ROMS. Even when i flashed original ROM still same thing.
I did read on the forum somewhere that the issue was due to the device not having a valid mac address.
Anyone shed any light on this matter?
There are tools out there for other HTC devices to get Wifi back but not sure if they will work on the uni as they dont work for the artemis.
i was able to get my wif working bygoing into the wireless manager then network cards and had to change it so they all were set to connect to the internet

hi @ all
this tread is a bit "past" but now i got the problem mentioned by balur. 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 on friday!
I solved the problem of Wi-Fi turning off by going to ActiveSync - Connection Settings and enabling "Allow wireless connection on device when connected to the desktop" option.
Wifi Stopped Functioning after flashing Roms
I have had similar wifi problems with my uni,
My uni was working perfectly for a long while when using "Tomal's 7.7" with Radio 1.18 . . . since then I tried testing with "T-Mobile official ROM AKU3.3" where the flash process when without a hitch.
However I had to change roms again since the T-Mobile rom wasn't very good. but i never got as far as testing the wifi
- - - -
I then tried to flash Tomal's 8.5 Beta, I ran into problems, and was stuck at the bootloader, I tried unlocking the uni with mtty, But i had copied and pasted the commands, and it kept on returning errors, after disconnecting and connecting with mtty again i tried typing in the commands and successfully unbricked my uni.
I attempted to flash Tomal's 8.5 Beta again, this time it worked without a hitch, but then I couldn't turn on wifi.
Wifi cannot be turned "on" from the comm manager or from WLAN. It just remains "off".
So I tried flashing back to Tomal 7.7 and wifi still didn't turn on.
Then I tried flashing Tomal 8.5 Beta again and still no wifi.
I've now tried flashing Radio 1.15 and - still no wifi
- - - -
I havn't the foggiest why wifi isn't functioning at all. Have I messed things up when I copied and pasted the commands into mtty?
Or did flashing the T-Mobile rom cause the problem?
No WIFI
Same here. I've tried 2 different upgrades now and the WIFI simply will not turn on. I've tried all the tricks in this thread, still no WIFI. anyone any ideas?

can't turn on WLAN

Hello everybody,
first of all - thank you all: helmi, xplode, all pdaviet guys, and others - you're making magic with BA roms, really thank you.
Please help me, I have an annoying problem: most of the times I try, I can't turn on WLAN. Rarely, somehow I manage to turn it on, but it happens very rarely, and this is driving me crazy.
I don't know whether it is a rom problem, or something else.
I have tried almost all roms available, because i read explode somewhere said that his last rom solved this problem...but nothing.
Something curious: this is the third BA i own, and I saw this problem before, but somehow i could turn WLAN on (I'd press the WLAN icon in comm manager many times, etc.), but on this BA it's just almost impossible to turn WLAN on.
Any ideas, please?
You need to go to the COMM manager, then go to Settings (down the bottom) > WLAN settings.
Then press "Turn on WLAN". If it doesnt come on after that, go back to COMM Manager then press wireless button.
thank you for the advice, but I'm aware of that trick - It does not help.
I used it on other BA's, and it was working, however, on this one it does not (most of the times).
Namely, I would think the WLAN module is simply dead, but then, sometimes, (unfortunately quire rarely) I manage to turn it on with the above procedure - first in comm manager, then settings, "turn wlan on", then comm manager again...
I don't get it, is it the ROM, or just my BA?
i'm using BA_ROM_CE_OS_5.2.19716__Build_19716.1.1.0_PV_DVH__16MB_Ram_16MB_PP as it is the only one that supports the new Wifiv2 driver
Do the search for "dead wlan due to erased eeprom"
Flyboy:
tried, but nothing. reflashed ba with BA_ROM_CE_OS_5.2.19716__Build_19716.1.1.0_PV_DVH__ 16MB, (the version without ram - although I don't understand what's the difference), then cold boot with no yes,yes...), installed wlan v2, but nothing, can't turn wlan on. Thank you anyway...
wit:
hmm...interesting, I assume you meant the hermes subforum topic (Dead wlan due to erased eeprom? *SOLVED*), but it's quite hard to follow, as it is for hermes... Also, posting a question there would not be liked by drummer10630, I mean he's great, helped many people, but for our BA the procedure is not the same, so he couldn't help me...
Anyway thank you all who read this, especially for your much needed help, I appreciate it.
after flash try cold boot with no NO,yes... just format the storage!!!
flyboy, tried that too, but no success.
I think I'll have to give up, I'm depressed.
****.
Bump.
Anyone else had any success stories they can post? I am in the same boat as pooksee1802.
WiFi will turn on, detect the network, go through all the settings but never complete the connection. It will connect maybe once in 20 attempts. It isn't that it simply doesn't work or is definitely broken, its just that it very rarely completes the connection. When it does complete the connection it works fine until the next time you need to connect.
i have the same issue...tried everything...no can do
wifi goes up, find the access point, requesting network key, then it retry connecting till dead by itself
i found a weird thing : whatever I set it to using Open + WEP, after tap "connect", it goes back to WPA-PSK + TKIP thing...
really annoying

WPA2 on pda2k with WM6

Hi All,
Currently using a iMate pda2k (Blue Angel) with the first-released Helmi Windows Mobile 6 Professional ROM installed. I've really got two problems, but one that is annoying me more, and that is that I can't connect to my home wireless network because I have got WPA2-Personal security enabled. I found on another forum post that I need to update the AKU, but i'm pretty sure I did that when I first installed the ROM. My other problem is that I can't turn the GSM radio off (phone). But i'm more in need for a solution to the WPA2 problem. Should I upgrade to a newer ROM, because i'm thinking of updating to Windows Mobile 6.1 or is there another solution (please no 'go back to Windows Mobile 2003!).
Thanks in Advance,
Timbo.

The BA WLAN driver does not support WPA2, some users report that they ca connect to WPA2 protected networks but these cases are rare
You may try a combination of WPA/WPA2 with TKIP encription (not AES) if the router will let you. I just returned a new Belkin N router back just because my BA wont connect to the wifi, even with WPA/WPA2 mixed mode.
Hello,
If it helps you, I have a Zyxel HW660-D1 and using wpa/tkip I can connect with my BA, but only with xplode WM6.1 roms and helmi old rom (that with wifidriver v2), with other WM6.1 roms (Dvha79_ddt or Hoangdat_vista from PDAViet) I can't connect to my wireless.
Our beloved BA isn't compatible with WPA2 - AES encryption, I think it's because of wireless chipset limitation.
PDA2K WM6 Professional issues
I am badly in need of help guys out there !!! Please get off this hook !!!
I have exactly the same problem you are having, I have been trying to work on all these issues for about 4 days until now. I can not get connected to my home wireless lan neither do I can restore my phone contacts. I even tried to go for an upgrade to another WM which is 6.1 and 6.5, but with no use cause every time I try to upgrade my PDA2K device disconnects and nothing happens except for "error 101 connection" that keeps appearing everytime I try to upgrade.
Help me out guys pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez
I am not sure how many times i have said this, BA + WPA2 = No GO, use WPA-PSK TKIP instead BA does not support WPA2, there are very rare situations that the access point can connect it in compatiblity mode like WPA, but it depends on the model ot the AP, Router, Modem or whatever device you use

I think you are mixing 3 problems here which should be addressed separately.
Posible Solutions:
#1:Read Xplodes post right after yours
#2:Clarify if you can or can not. "If Cannot" Restoring contacts saved on your phone requires the use of Active Sync. It also requires MS Outlook on your PC. You can sync via USB or Via Blue Tooth. Does your phone sync with your pc?
#3:Error 101 during flashing of new ROM = you have not connected your phone to the PC or its not in Serial Mode. You must follow step by step procedures on BlueAngel Wiki.
error 101 is present when the device is not in bootloader mode prior to upgrade, with wm2003 this was possible because thre was command to put the device in bootloader mode trough activesync, but in newer os it does not work
