Hello People,
I have a question,
I'm having big time problems losing my WIFI connection, after like 15 minutes.
It still says that i have a connection and that's correct, only no Internet connection. the only thing I have to do then is disable WIFI en enable, and then it's fine for 15 minutes (sometimes more, sometimes less).
I flashed original Roms and Cooked Roms, but the problem persists.
If I update the radio, will it also help to improve wifi? or is it for signal fot network improvement only?
Btw.: does somebody have the same problem as me with there Artemis?
It sounds like you have a hardware fault. An upgrade of the Radio will not improve WiFi reception. An upgrade of the Radio should improve the clarity of your calls and also the batery life.

Is there anything I can do? the strange thing is, it will happen always after 10-15 minutes. Sure this is a hardware problem? And also what I find strange is that nobody has this issue with a Artemis, (couldn't find anything). If it was a hardware problem, isn't it so that there must be more users with this problem?

it might be a hardware fault caused by something u did (dropped etc). You should be able to get it fixed for free by the company u bought it from, if its under a year old.
I have exactly same problem since upgrading to official o2 wm6 rom - connection to home router drops after about 10 minutes, but wifi light still flashes on orbit /cannot switch comm manager off without soft restting orbit. Tried hard reset to orbit /restoring default router settings, still same.
I have experienced that problem with my HP RX 3715 and Imate Jam also with FS Loox N560.
WiFi Connection drops after about 15 to 30 minutes.
When I changed my wireless router, the problem disappeared.
I use Belkin 802.11B/G
Using a router ?
I would have a go at updating the firmware on your router, it solved my wireless problems (laptop dropping)
Need help drop me a message

Thanks very much for the reply's, also MN8.
I already have the latest firmware on my router.
I will buy another router to see if the problem disappear.
Thanks..
I had that same anoying problem on linksys access point in office. In home im using edimax, its lose connection too but not that often. I have HTC Artemis. Can someone help me?
btw. 3 laptops use linksys ap in office w/o any problem. Also I dont have any problem with my edimax ap on few laptops. Its only on my HTC Artemis.
I have the same problem.
As you said updating ppc rom or updating the latest router software didn't solve the problem.
What i do is turn off the ppc then turn on again after 2-3 seconds the wifi is working again.
If there is a real solution please share with us....

Hi all,
I have a big problem with my Prophet and its WIFI, I didn't manage to connect to anything.
First, I had the Orange French rom.
When i tried to connect to my hotspot with WPA protection, although the prophet could see the hotspot, try to connect to it, connection seemed to stay blocked... status was "connected to network" but no IP given (DHCP is activated on my hotpot).
Then I read that WPA wasn't well supported by WM5 so i put a WEP encryption on my hotspot. This time the prophet connect and an IP address appeared in wifi sttings, but connection reseted all the time... connected, not connected, connected again, not connected...
impossible to stabilise the connection.
I tried on another hotspot without encryption, and same thing, connection reseting again and again...
Now I've just tried with the last dopod rom which I've found right here, but no change, the wifi connection is impossible.
I'm kinda lost, dunno what's going wrong with something that should work without any problems...
Does someone ever seen something like this?
Could it be a material failure?
Thanks a lot for your help!!! :wink:
Cedrick
It was a hardware disfunction, replaced today with another prophet which works fine
New Prophet Revision out ?
Hello,
I Just got my XDA Neo (o2Germany) 2 days ago and because i´ve read about the Dopod Rom beeing faster, i upgraded immediatly.
The Problem now is the bad Wireless performance, i never get a good connection - Still if i am right next to the Router/Accesspoint...
Did i understand you right that this is a Hardware failure ?
Can I correct this with a different Rom ?
The Problem is that i cannot give it back to o2 now, because of the Dopod Rom - Maybe i have to try the Downgrade Method presented yesterday...
Can you give some more information about Wlan performance ??
THX !!
Hi,
First of all, did you try the wireless connection with your first original rom?
And what do you mean by "never get a good connection", could you explain that point? does the prophet connect and disconnect?
You must know that wifi performance are kinda poor on this device from what I heard and what I saw... you'll never get something like your laptop for example.
But I'll do some test at home and see how it's going now that I can really connect (I never could before, so I never really tried :wink
Anyway, in my case it was clearly hardware as I have the problem on my Orange rom, then I had the same problem with the Dopod one.
Now I just received a new prophet, and it worked fine on the first try with the Orange rom...
I'd like to try with the Dopod again but until they find a way to downgrade, i won't take the irsk... or maybe yes, i dunno
First of all: Thank you for answering so quick !!!
Yes i can connect, and i can also Use Opera, Internet Explorer and so on...
But i think it is really slow, i never got the connection far away from "poor" ...
Even the original o2 Xda neo rom was not better...
I will have to try some different Roms when downgrading will be made possible i think.
you said your o2 rom wasn't better? is that right?
it is slow for me too (right now i'm on my prophet over wifi)... but i don't think the rom would make a big difference, i mean, the dopod us supposed to be the fastest...
I think the device itself have a poor wifi...
could you confirm that your o2 rom was as poor as the dopod or did i get it wrong?
maybe you could also test your connection speed too.
If you tell me how i can test the Connection, i can do for sure !
I did not "really" test the o2-rom, i started the XDA and after Windows was ready, i saw it is quite slow in the menue - wireless was detected and i connected but signal quality was exactly the same bad thing i have now.
Edit: TXRATE is "Auto", after 2 Minutes or so it drops to 2Mbps
408 Kb/s is what I get when I run a basic speed test.
that ain't bad... and I t ink pocket IE is quite slow too...
We are not on a PC after all, the proc speed also affect the connection speed.
I think that it's already nice to have wifi on a little device like this
I`ll do a DSL-Speedtest, i think this is what you did, too ?
EDIT:
Downloading is very fast can you give me a clue wehre i can exactly see the speed?
exactly
Mhm, after a new Hardreset a interruped the *.cab file installs with the first reboot - The System is much faster now. The Wireless Quality is not better but i can Download and Phone via Skype without any Problems and interruptions.I Think my System had an overload, now it is fast and it works.
I will test the wireless range tomorrow...
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.

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?

I have searched a lot on this forum and have not found any solution to the wifi problem on HTC diamond....I am sure there are experts in this forum who have worked around their way and I would request them to post their comments as to how they have got their WIFI talking on HTC Diamond...........
I am trying connecting to my home wireless network. It finds the network but unable to connect to it. Any help please? Has anyone managed to get it connected to any Wifi? I ahve already set the power management to "best performace...no succes.......
(My laptop and O2 stealth does get connected to the same network and it an open wifi connection)...........PLZ Help.....
There is no wifi problem on the Diamond. it works fine for on every ROM I have used.
It sounds like you haven't set the access key in your Diamond.

Please do have a problem and that the reason there are so many view on this thread in just 30 minutes....
thanking you in advance for your help........
i've never known any problems, have u flashed a cooked ROM or changed the Radio?
if so, i would try going back to stock and see if it works then, if not, send it back as faulty.
I'm not aware of any 'known issue' with the WiFi on the Diamond either, certainly mine and my girlfriend's both work fine in this respect. If you've never successfully connected to any wireless network then you've got a hardware issue; send your phone back to be repaired and stop wasting time looking for a software solution would be my advice.
wifi,,,
Glad that a lot of users doesn't had problem with the wifi, but it's an iminent malfunction, and looks to be a hardware problems...
I had change my rom and radios a lot, and the issues are the same:
Opened the comm manager or the settings-connection-wifi, turn on the wifi, and it's turn off again...
In my case, often worked properly after soft reset, and i often connect with 3g or gprs, but...it's a suck!!!
Step by step......connecting to wifi....

if your diamond is not connecting to your router there is some posibilities. Are you at home or work, at work on the AP you can have security setings and MAC filtering. At home if you have not implement security and mac filtering you can be to far of your router, You must be between -60 and -80 Db max and at -80 it is easyer with a MIMO router, etc...
Got the same problem as you
this is how i fixed mine.
1) I download a radio rom thing and install it
2) restart the device and the wifi is working perfectly.
No problems at all!
Got the same problem as you
I download a radio rom and install it but still turn off again

i have problem with wifi too.phone cant see wifi network even whan i stand right next to router.one time phone found network, but only poor signal and i wasnt be able to connect. wifi goes well on another mobiles like SE X10 and samsung JET. i changed several roms but problem stays.. i dont know what to do..thx
Htc hd wifi problems
I just guess it´s some kind of incompatibility with certain WIFI APs.
I tried several other now:
Netgear 834 - complete catastroph
T-KOM 500WV - runs immediately
So I think it´s the best to change the router.
The device:
Speedport 500V is at least the one that does the job in my network.
Fritz (2 types I don´t know exactly but little older though), Netgear (834), Sparklan - these did NOT WORK
Speedport W500V- just basic setting (WEP 128Bit, ASCII) immediatlety connected to the HTC. Tested with WFI-MONSTER.
I think I´ll get a hold of some of these, they are pretty cheap (20 €) here now.
Hope it helped a little

Hi Guys,
I had the same problem the entire week last week. I tried upgrading the radio, downgrading the radio, several different roms, until I finally realized what the cause was.
Wifi would work right after the first hard reset after flashing a new rom or radio, but I noticed that it wouldn't connect to any of my wifi routers after installing all my apps and restoring configurations.
I noticed that after enabling "WPA authentication" on Advanced Configuration, wifi would stop working. Leaving it disabled would let it work normally. I don't understand why, but there you go. I haven't had a problem with any router since.
Hope this helps.
I still don't know,my HTC HD2 have serious problem or i just need some software or fixes:
1.When i'm conected on WiFi and i browse the web od do something other on internet after 15-20 minutes i lose my conection and then i must turn on/off WiFi to recconect and then i'm on line again.( i was at 1.43 ROM now i have 1.48 ROM still have same problem )
2.Also i don't know how to set my WiFi enable when phone is at standby mode.I have some program BsB Tweaks.. but nothing happens when i enable that.Example i talk at skype for some minutes and then i see my screen is off and my connection is down too then i must press wake up button and to wait for reconnect .HELP

I don't know about that issue myself, so if I came across that same problem I'd have to use the search option. Did you try and see if anyone else has had the same problem?
i try to find something but i cant' find that someone else have the same problem.
wow man! reviving a thread from mid-2010! you have every right to revive it because it is your thread and you couldn't find a solution to your first problem.
but i am confused! its been more than 6 months since you reported the problem. how come you haven't tried a newer ROM? v1.43 and v1.48 are very very very old! latest is v3.14, try it and let us know if it fixes your problem. if you have a T-Mobile HD2 or a branded HD2 (vodafone, etc), then choose a latest official ROM appropriately.
good luck!

that was when i open thread now i have 3.14 ROM also i was at 1.72 ROM ...but still the same maybe i need to try with android.iIf i don't find any solution i'll try that
aah ok so you have tried the latest ROMs...so you see how it can help us and save all of our time if you post more information instead of copy/pasting the old version of the question from mid-2010?
here are some more things to try to isolate the cause of the problem:
1. try your device on some OTHER wifi network, e.g. at your friend's house or in a coffee shop, etc. does the wifi hang on ANY wifi network or just the one at your house, for example...?
2. when the wifi dies, leave it DEAD, do not disconnect/reconnect wifi. try to ping your HD2 from your desktop/laptop, assuming all devices and computers that you own are on the same wifi network. tell us what happens.
3. same as step 2, there are some programs for windows mobile that you can run on your HD2 to see your device's IP assignments, etc. such tools can also be used to ping your desktop/laptop from your HD2. i think one program that can do such things is "network browser". tell us what it shows regarding network card information BEFORE your wifi dies as well as AFTER your wifi dies. also tell us if you can ping your desktop/laptop from your HD2 after your wifi appears dead.
4. does it make any improvement if you run your wifi on "best performance" instead of "best battery". note that "best battery" is the default setting which can cause reception issues in case the wifi signal is weak.
5. yes! certainly try android, it should help isolate the problem further to confirm/deny if it is a hardware problem. but you should know that your device's MAC address will be DIFFERENT if you install android (this is because both the SD and NAND versions of android and MAGLDR currently available have no automatic way to read the actual MAC address from your device's firmware). this might cause your router to behave BETTER if the problem lies somewhere in the router's configuration. it might solve the problem for you, but you will have to shift permanently to android just to fix the wifi issue and you might never find out what router setting was affecting windows mobile if the problem really was the router settings. tricky isn't it?

Ok thank you so much man i'll try all of this solution and i'll write again tnx again
Hey
I have the same problem with my HD2. I cant load any pages after 5mins of being connected to WiFi. Disconnecting and connecting again works for the first 5mins but then you need to do it again. Very annoying.
If I changed the battery saving settings in the WiFi options, it seemed like it helped sometimes.
I searched alot on the inet, but I couldn't get it to work properly.
I sent a message to htc.com support and they told me i had to perform a hard reset and upgrade to the newest official rom. I did this but none helped.
Now I've sent it for repair under warranty. I'll let you know if they fixed it when I get it back. I'm not sure if there is any other sollution, but I hope they will fix it for me.
Regarding the previous post about how to isolate the problem I will tell you how my device responded to these situations:

1. try your device on some OTHER wifi network, e.g. at your friend's house or in a coffee shop, etc. does the wifi hang on ANY wifi network or just the one at your house, for example...?

I've tried it at a few of my friends houses, but all gave me the same problem
Can't help you on step 2&3 since I sent my device away for repair

4. does it make any improvement if you run your wifi on "best performance" instead of "best battery". note that "best battery" is the default setting which can cause reception issues in case the wifi signal is weak.

"Best performance" seemed to extend the time on which my WiFi would die. So I think this definetely has something to do with the problem. However I tried alot and nothing really solved it. Tapping 'Renew IP adress' a few times seemed to help too.
I read on the net about battery managing for WiFi on mobile phones in general, and for other devices who could choose the option to block the auto managing the problem was solved. Our HD2 however doesn't have this option.

5. yes! certainly try android, it should help isolate the problem further to confirm/deny if it is a hardware problem. but you should know that your device's MAC address will be DIFFERENT if you install android (this is because both the SD and NAND versions of android and MAGLDR currently available have no automatic way to read the actual MAC address from your device's firmware). this might cause your router to behave BETTER if the problem lies somewhere in the router's configuration. it might solve the problem for you, but you will have to shift permanently to android just to fix the wifi issue and you might never find out what router setting was affecting windows mobile if the problem really was the router settings. tricky isn't it?

I have tried alot of android builds (NAND & SD) but all had the same problem. I didn't spend much time figuring out what I could do about it while in android but by connecting the regular way the problem occured quite fast.
