Please Help
I have a brand new SPV M5000 from work. Set up to get email with exchange server for emails diary etc. This works fine. In the Comms Manager wifi will not turn on, to be clear this is not about connecting to a wireless network, wifi will not ven turn on. 3G etc all fine, but wireless will not activate.
Orange seems stumped, previuosly it did work ,according to my IT manager before the sim was activated. Since then no joy. I have hard and soft reset to no avail.
Can any of you throw a light on this?
I have lookd through the other messages on this forum and cant find any mention of it
Thanks in advance.

I have a similar problem on my universal. Any ideas from any one on how to fix it ?
I've been having the same problem. sent it back to O2 they fixed it twice and it is still being gay!
Please please please somebody help me!
My XDA Exec started off fine, and then over time it took more and more attempts to connect to a wifi service. I recently sent it away to have the USB port re-attached, and since then it won't connect at all.
I have upgraded the ROM and it hasn't made any difference.
Does anyone know if there is an aerial for the wifi electronics? Could it be broken? Is this more likely to be a firmware / software issue?
Any clues would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks

I had the same problem with my Wizard, it seemed it was a hardware problem
(sory for my gramatic; English isn't my native language)
Hello
I have NBD 9.1. I installed demo spb Pocket Plus 4.0. After while I removed it. Now I can't turn on wifi connection. No, that I can't connect to my router, but I can't turn on Wifi in CommManager. Erlier I had the same problem with other app, but I simply soft reset Wizard and have Wifi. Now i reset 5 times and no effect
What shall I do? HR isn't good answer
also having this problemd with NBD
I've also experienced this problem with NBD. Can someone point us in the right direction?
re-iterate: WiFi in CommMgr hourglasses (beachballs?), but doesn't start up.

Check the NBD Rom launch thread from where you downloaded the Rom for a probable work around or a cab file installation

I had the problem of the wifi not turning on in comm mgr so I took out the battery and put in the frige a few minutes and put the battery back in and now it works. I have a tmobile mda and am running tnt wm 6.1 pro on it.
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
I have a t-mobile wing. After flashing open touch v3.0 biggy (which I love, thank you ttran) to my device, my wifi will not turn on. I try to select wifi in comm manager and it remains off.
I have searched multiple forums relating to this problem. I have even called t-mobile technical support. Nobody seems to have an answer.
If anyone knows how to solve this problem, I would greatly appreciate some help...
im not sure which comm manager you have but here is what you do for 10 button one
"6. HTC 10-Button Comm Manager.cab – HTC 10 Button Comm Manager
- Step 1: Copy to the phone and run it.
- Step 2: (Fixing WLAN button malfunction, somehow it doesn’t work by default on Wing): **Thanks for beowulf6’s post for this fix.
Change "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \HTC \CommManager \WLAN= "Windows WLanMgr.exe " "DeviceName" = "{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006} TNETW12345"
the end of this long String is the WLAN-Adaptername of the Device.
just change in this Example "TNETW12345" into "TNETWLN1"
-Step 3: (Fixing Wi-Fi setting launch issue) **Thanks for phatman81’s post for this fix.
Change "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\ Default:"
\Windows\WlanMgr.exe --> \Windows\ctlpnl.exe"
Cookiemonster:
Thank you so much for your quick response. I went to edit the registry, but all of my settings were already set to the specifications as described in your instructions. I am lost. My WIFI just won't turn on... I select it, it pauses for a moment, and then never turns on. Are there parameters that i should be setting for the chip itself??

I would either try reflashing, or flash to the original tmobile rom to make sure it's not a hardware problem.
same issue
yu,
i am facing the same problem with my WI-FI caused by wrong installition, i did restore my device to the factory setting but still i t pause for a moment then it wont work, i think this is a hardware failure and i dont think we can fix it, anyway please if anyone know how to fix this problem coz i feel my wing worth nothing without the WI-FI.

Well... Thank you all for your help. I took my phone to a T-Mobile store today and they have concluded that my hardware is damaged and I have to replace my phone. So ,chances are, if you are having this exact issue, then you have damaged your hardware.
I'm having the same problem with my wifi, it'll come-up for 2 secs and then it'll go away as if the hardware is failing to initialize. I'm sure it's the same issue as the corrupt eeprom from re-flashing too much and no1 from this forum has posted any solution. Did you have to pay anything when you got your tmo-wing replaced?

i was having that issue before try goin into network adapters tab frome the network selection screen and set it to the internet and see if it lets u on
that didn't fix it, when I turn wlan on the very first time, it will do a clicking sound for mayb 10 secs, then if I look at SDIO WLAN on the network adapters IP address, it has gargbage where normally it should say "not connected".
I was having the same issue (at least I think anyway). i would go into the comm manager, and select wifi button, and it would highlight green for a sec then nothing. I went in to the registry settings, and changed the default as it said to, but the devicename was already right. i then tried the wifi again and nothing. So I went to start-settings-connections-wireless lan, and turned on the wifi that way. It worked, and now i can select the wifi on or off via the comm manager. Maybe it just needed a jumpstart...
Thank You!
hey, just soft reset ur phone, i had the same problem. i soft reseted (push the little button on the side of the wing) and it will work again!
Hey guys, i have flashed to a few ROMs in the past and my phone would always give me the trouble of no data connection. My tmobile wing is hard spl and running currently on papa's black diamond. whenever i tried to go to the comm manager to activate the data connection, it just wont turn on while other buttons i have no problem turning on such as wlan and bluetooth.
i've also tried launching internet but it just says there's no data connection and ask me to go to settings. i still can make calls but just completely no data connections. i have also soft resetted it several time and no luck. =/
help would be great!
ps. i've looked up several other threads with the same problem, however, theres really nothing under connections except add new so it didnt help much.

I think you have to use the Network Wizard. If it is not in that rom, can install it using the cab, it's should be around this forum.
thanks live! but i'm not sure which network wizard cab file works and which doesnt.. so a friend helped me set it up manually. thanks though!!

What, have you heard that question before?

yes my fone is having the same problem and now i cant flash to a new rom
i flashed for the first time yesterday, and had the same problem. just call tmobile and tell them somehow your data connection information has deleted, and they will run u through what to put in the fields. and don't forget to go to the network wizard, to make sure its on the right network.
Same problem except it WAS working (my gprs/edge) until I added my first wlan entry.. of my apartment's wifi which works. But after I was done using it i turned the wlan off from comm manager and expected to see the big E for edge and instead just see the two arrows with the little x under it. I can no longer connect to gprs/edge. If i open the internet explorer to view a page, it flashes a "G" with the arrows like it's trying to connect forever. At that point it will not even let me make or receive calls until I reboot the ppc. Network wizard won't fix it as I've already tried, twice... no change. My data connection for T-mobile is set up already under "connections tab" but it just doesn't work. My best guess is something has gone wrong in the registry... but as much as I've searched for this kind of problem I find nothing... just stuff how to fix wlan problems. btw, i'm on tmobile. Oh, it won't even activesync if my wlan is off now... I have to enable the wlan and let it connect to my home network... and THEN it will go through activesync without error. This is nuts, I already hard resetted once because of this and now it's the same story. Maybe it's just a prob with the opentouch 6.5 nofrills version that's just basic and let's the users add their own apps.
