wifi not working. Shows connecting for a second then unavailable. - Touch GSM General

I recently installed skyfire then fring on my touch and after i installed fring my wifi kept getting stuck on connecting and wouldn't progress any further. I uninstalled fring and it worked again but then it started doing it again so i uninstalled skyfire and now it says connecting for a second then goes back to unavailable when connecting to a network i know is there. I also don't think its showing networks in range.

I have still not solved this.
Is there any way i can reset my WIFI settings? or can someone suggest any registry settings that might be stuffed up?

This problem seems to have solved it's self after my battery completely went flat and i took the battery out then put it back in and charged it again. If your having a similar problem, try that.

Wifi and data connection settings not permanent.

This is a very peculiar problem i am facing in my hd2. The wifi connection settings as well as the data connection settings keep on changing automatically. At times after restart they work perfectly fine and stop otherwise automatically especially after a power failure , when the router rests again , the internet cant be connected.
Any help ??
Aloqa
have you recently installed a programme called Aloqa from Marketplace?
I did and this has caused issues with my WIFI and Data connections getting all messed up.

Aha, interesting!
I too am having problems with my HD2 randomly enabling data connection by itself and it's only started happening since I installed the 1.61 rom and/or Aloqa, however I uninstalled Aloqa a couple of days ago and it's still happening... ghosts in the machine! I would hate to have to hard reset especially since I spent hours setting up my phone with icons etc. and I'm otherwise very happy with it. Hope there's a resolution to this issue.

Did you install hTC taskmanager?
There must be a registry hack.
Any solution to configure the GMS/UMTS Data-connection as permanent (useful for Voip)?

GPRS Connection dead after ROM update

Hi guys.
I just tried flashing Duttys Leo Multi-Lang V1.1 ROM.
Actually I decided to sync my contacts before flashing but the GPRS connection wouldn't work then. I didn't think too much into it since I had just used it a couple of hours before without problem, and though it was some soft reset issue or something.
However, I tried flashing to the rom and the procedure went without any trouble. But I can't get my GPRS connection to work anymore. I tried flashing back to stock 1.48 which didn't work either, and after that I flashed back to the original stock 1.43 roms.
No matter what I do I can't get internet and my GPRS to work anymore.
I tried putting my simcard in my old SE P1i and I could connect to the GPRS and surf the net without any issues.
This leaves me to think no other than that something has happened to my beloved HD2.
I now have 1.43 ROM and I uninstalled the HSPL, so I don't think there should be any issues sending it in for repair, but I wanted to check with you guys before. I rather not send it in
Any ideas?
I've had exactly the same problem and just reported it to HTC. My battery almost ran flat yesterday but I didn't pay attention and just assumed that I'd left something running. I soft reset the phone and put it back on the charger for a few hours, took it off and then left it overnight. When I went to use the phone again today the battery was completely dead. I charged it up again and then left it to see how quickly the battery was discharging. I noticed that the phone thought I was in the Punjab but didn't realise that I didn't have an internet connection because the taskbar said I was connected via HSDPA. I ended up doing a hard reset as I assumed the battery problem must be software related.
After the hard reset I noticed that I didn't have an internet connection but assumed that it was an aberration and connected via WiFi to set the phone up again. To cut a long story short, I eventually realised that I could only connect to the internet via WiFi despite the fact that the taskbar still said I had an HSDPA connection. I tried a couple of hard resets and even reflashed the ROM to 1.48 but whatever I do I can't connect to the internet through my phone provider. I can make calls and I can connect via Wifi but I can't connect via HSDPA.
I don't know why this happened really, but after trying this and that it worked out for me.
What I did was, I turned off the 3G and tried to surf through G only.
That worked, then I tried to turn on 3G and surf and it also worked again.
I then tried to do a soft reset and tried to surf and again, it didn't work.
So I turned of 3G and tried to surf on G which worked, and when turning back to 3G I could again surf.
Ofc it would be lame to be forced to turn off 3G and surf 1 time before one can surf on the 3G every time one does a soft reset, but for some wierd reason it works now without the need of turning 3G off.
I hope this can help you a bit and hope you get ur mobile working well soon again!
Thanks umiss. Out of interest, how do you force the phone to only connect via GPRS?
My problem is getting weirder and weirder. It turns out that I can connect to the internet via HSDPA when I'm at work but not when I'm at home or around my home. This is despite the fact that my phone still says that I have a strong HSDPA connection at home.
I also tried popping my SIM card into my old N95 and I have no problems connecting to the internet with that The only thing that's giving me a bit of hope is that my partner's SIM card (she's on the same network as me) struggled to connect to the internet in my phone too so I'm hoping that it's related to a network problem in my area.
I only have G/3G connection so GPRS is the only choice for me to connect to the internet. (Or maybe I mixed 3G and GPRS being the same?)
Anyhow, I connect through my 3G connection.
It's weird why this problem happened, and how it by itself solved (maybe me switching to G instead of 3G helped but I don't really know).
However, regarding your problem.
You say that you don't have any problem connecting to internet (through HSDPA I presume) with your N95? But if you connect with your HD2 it doesn't work.
Furthermore, with your friends SIM it also doesn't work with your HD2.
This obviously sounds like theres an error with the phone rather than the network?
Specially since it worked with your N95. Could you maybe try your friends sim in your N95 to see if it works?
But then again, how weird isn't it that your phone works well at work :S
Did you try forcing your phone to go into GSM to check if internet works?
Please try this and keep me updated, I would really like to know if this somehow helps solving this "problem" :S

WIFI issues

Hi Everyone,
I have a strange issue,
My wifi works, but today it won't recognize my work wifi even though it was connected to it on Friday.
I've tried everything I can think of to solve this issue, but the problem is only at work.
I just tried a free spot down the street and it connected to it no problem but it refuses to even acknowledge the fact that I have wifi at work...my laptop and and iphone are both connected, just the Nexus...
I've read os "similar" things happening to other people, but I would love to solve and know more about this if anyone has any info.
Thanks,
Lou
EDIT
I played around some more, and solved the problem.
I went to settings - wireless and networs - wifi settings - then the menu button, and went to advanced settings.
From here I went to regulatory domain and forced 14 channels and it seems to work now.
Hope this helps someone

Seems like they removed that option in the patch.
Cant find it anymore and my WiFi is not really working as it should any longer.. I get a connection speed of only 5mbps sitting very close to my AP. :-/
since update, my wifi is very fidgity. loses my house wifi all the time now. seems like every time the phone goes to sleep. my router is the schizz, so it shouldn't be because of lack of signal.

[Q] Wifi tethering stops working after a few minutes

Just got my Arc yesterday and noticed a really wired problem. I turned on Wifi tethering and connected from my MBP, after a few minutes of normal usage internet stops working. Although Wifi still shows connected on my Mac but sites will never load.
I keep getting "WPA Key" incorrect error if I try to reconnect before I restart Wifi tethering on my Arc. Thing is this only happens when WPA is on, if I choose no security it works completely fine without any issues.
I also tried connecting from my Nexus One and the same thing happened after a few minutes, so it shouldn't be some sort of conflict between Arc and my MBP.
Everything else on my Arc works perfectly, I already tried a hard reset but it didn't help. Does anyone know what else could I try before sending my phone back to SE?
anyone?
Hey did you find a solution? Or has anyone got any suggestions, I have the exact same problem. I can connect to the phone for about 2 minutes then it suddenly stops working. I then cannot reconnect properly untill everything is reset. I tried using it without security after finding this post and it works for me as well - I don't want to have it open though, im in halls of residence so people will try using it. Im on three mobile, I wondered if it is a possible problem with their branded software. (USB tethering works perfectly)
I also cannot connect to the update service through the phone, it fails everytime but there is nothing wrong with the 3g connection etc, and only the update service has problems. I know this is not important, but it could be a sign that something is wrong so it is annoying me a little
Thanks

[Q] Xoom reseting after connecting Wifi network

I have a Xoom MZ601 from Hong Kong, running Tiamat-Xoom-Rom-2.2.2.Moray
It was working OK until a few days ago. System boots up ok. I can open programs and settings. However, as soon as it hooks to a wifi network, it reset itself.
I've tried pulling the SIM card and micro SD in and out.
I've played around the frequency (Tiamat settings)
I've tried uninstalling all programs I installed in the last few days.
... and still no luck.
Any idea anyone?
Did you try wiping in recovery and starting over?
Sorry to thanks too late, I was overseas.
Thanks for the advise. I've tried that and still the same problem.
Somehow, it happens when the tablet loses the Wifi signal. It reset itself. After it re-start, it keeps reseting itself when connecting to my home network.
I managed to make it work by going to setting quickly and disabling the wifi.
The only way to make the wifi to work again is turning off my wireless modem, then let the tablet boot up and fail to connect to any wifi. I will then turn on my modem, "et voila" it works again.
Very Strange glitch.
Any one have similar issue?
I don't know if my issue is related to the Wifi or not, but mine has been randomly rebooting constantly! I can't pin-point exactly a cause, however, I've tried to factory reset it many times to no avail...
I'm thinking now it could be the modem.
I'm using the Dynalink RTA1046VW. I'll try playing with it.
