What ROM are you guys using?

So i finally managed to do hard reset ,
and noticed that the the wifi stops working correct after "Helti home" install
I might be wrong but it works prefect before that

i didin install helmi home but still my wifi doesnt working anymore. does anyone have suggestion?

The default setting for ActiveSync shuts down wifi when you sync. If ActiveSync is still running in the background on your device after you're done, you can't restart wifi.
If a soft reset or manually shutting down activesync solves the problem, change your settings on your PC's copy of activesync (File -> Connection Settings) to allow wireless connections when connected to the desktop.

thanks your solution works for me thank you so much

How can I know what program is trying to access the internet?

Problem: The data arrows are always active on the top of my phone. When I go to the comm. manager and disable wlan, something keeps enabling it and then it immediately turns off again -- this happens over and over. I even have nue's hardware switch enabled and the wifi switch off.
How can I tell what is trying to access the connection?

HD2 WiFi

Hiya, I purchased my HD2 this morning, everything is great the phone is brilliant, there's one tiny problem, I did a soft reset on the phone after using the 802.11n enable thingy (using the regeditor), when I rebooted the phone the WiFi option (under settings on HTC sense) is disabled (like greyed out), I can't turn the wi-fi on, i tried setting the reg back to disable 802.11nm but the option is still disabled. The button was enabled before I made any edits though :s
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

WIFI is disabled when connected to your PC (Activesync).

Haha alrighty, thanks for the quick reply =)
edit: just another 2 queries
How to I find the MAC Address of the HD2, and i'm trying to sync my contact out of office outlook 2007 using Windows Mobile Device Centre, but when i select contact is says Outlook is not setup, how do i fix this? :s

Glad to know. I thought this "feature" was a bug from installing too many tweak apps. I could still enable wifi via:
Start > Settings > All Settings > Connections > Wifi
and ticked the "Turn On Wifi" option. This part of the OS is basic windows mobile UI.

enable WIFI on hd2
i updated my hd2 from 2.13 to 3.14 and lost my wifi capability.
can this be recovered,,,, i already re flashed back to 2.13 and still a disabled (greyed out) wifi on/off button.
Any solutions to this problem?
thanx

[SOLVED] wifi keeps goin to off-with screen mode

yea so recently my nexus wont keep the option to keep wifi on during sleep checked, everytime i pickup the nexus its gone back to "never" keep connected.
also, in the wifi advanced settings theres an options called "direct-wifi" it bring up peer devices,,,, is this a file sharing feature?
edit: ok "facepalm" a reboot seems to have solved the wifi-on prob., but still wondering what wifi-direct is
edit 2: found it Wi-Fi Direct
Android now supports Wi-Fi Direct for peer-to-peer (P2P) connections between Android-powered devices and other device types without a hotspot or Internet connection. The Android framework provides a set of Wi-Fi P2P APIs that allow you to discover and connect to other devices when each device supports Wi-Fi Direct, then communicate over a speedy connection across distances much longer than a Bluetooth connection.

NEW REPLY,
ok now its gone back to resetting to switch wifi off with screen off,
with this option constantly re-enabling itself will i be able to receive notifications while screen off?

FOUND ANSWER.
problem was a app called wifi-unlocker that i had given admin right to, it was for some reason shutting off my wifi with the screen off.....dont know why but uninstalled checked the box rebooted and now no issue

[Q] More than 2 devices connected to hotspot.

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.
