Disable WPA2 in WM 6.1 device - Networking

Hello to everybody. I tried to search this forums, but didn't find the solution.
Is it possible to disable WPA2 wifi authentication in windows mobile 6.1 device? I have issues with connecting to WPA2/AES network (device crashes to black screen). Manual setting to WPA/TKIP does not work, because it is overrided with WPA2/AES.

Some information here on the MSDN website:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa916274.aspx
There doesn't seem to be anything to disable WPA2 though

Thanks for the links. But after long time googling and reading some technical stuff, I am more and more convinced, that it is hardcoded into wifi drivers and it isn't possible to change it .
Better solution should be use of correct-WPA2-working driver, but I am neither programmer, nor experienced cooker to use driver from different type of WPA2-working device with same wifi chip.
EDIT: I found, that it crashes before showing of login dialog (PEAP auth), so that must be problem with WPA2 pre-authenication.

I have WPA2/AES working on my Kaiser with the (almost) stock 5.2.19212 ROM. I did update the WiFi driver in my kitchen though (TNETW1251.dll version 3.55, dated 10/06/2008). I have never had any issues with WPA2 though, even before I upgraded to WM6.1.

I have Vox and it crashes with every ROM, original & custom without difference. Mainboard replacement didn't solve this problem, so that must be software issue. Where did you get that updated TNETW1251.dll? Here I only found patched one for ICS.

I can't remember where I got it from originally - more than likely a post in the Kaiser ROM Development forum. I am not sure its the same driver on the VOX but here it is anyway (just delete the .zip extension).

Too bad, another driver for same wifi chip doesn't work (doesn't load on startup). Maybe because of different chipset. But thanks anyway.

Is it possible to change the MAC ADDR of Hermes?

Hello to all,
Currently McDonalds provided a free wifi for 20mins for each device
Is it possible to change my MAC ADDRRESS of my PPC to enjoy other 20mins?
and I'd search for some old post...
is that the MAC stored in the wifi chip's and there's nothing to do with the registry,
The only possible way is to change the original drivers ?
thankyou
PS. My Hermes is running WM5
There is some discussion regarding changing the MAC address of the Hermes using a custom mode controller for the TIACXWLN driver. Check out this thread here.
Since I haven't found the time to try downgrading to WM5 to test the older driver out, would you be so kind as to help test a theory of mine by installing the custom mode controller to you device to see if you can set a custom MAC address and/or set promiscuous mode? The file can be downloaded for free and is located at the bottom of AlexB's website found here.
Once you download and install the .cab, the program can be found in
"/program files/custom controller/tiacxwln_ctrl.exe"
Enable WIFI in your com manager and execute this program. Let us know if you can successfully set your MAC address or enable promiscuous mode.
Cheers and good luck

HTC Shift WLAN problem
Have you had any problems with your WLAN Marvell sd8686. I can not seem to get mine to work correctly. It seems to have some problem with it. When I go to connect to a network. It does not show any of the 4 networks that should be in range. 1 sits 2 feet away. I have tried everything com manager turn off and on, reinstall device, restart, Format and reinstall Vista. It was working for the first day then I turned it off and back on after that I have had to mess with it like restarting etc. It works sometimes and others it doesnt. I tried to find new drivers but cant seem too. I called HTC europe support but they are closed. Any Help would be great.

just check my stuff, maybe it will help.
its always good to make an Acronis backup of your working shift.
this way you can restore it easily.
Thanks - that's very nice of you to provide those d/l's.
If you, or anyone else is running XP can you confirm the following for me in terms of the WiFi card setup from control panel?
Device Manager-Network adaptors - Marvell sd8686 - advanced
802.11bg Ad Hoc - not present
802.11D Support - disable
-Everything else "Not Present" except
Radio Off - Enable Radio
Does this match whateveryone else has listed under this Advanced tab?
For network I have configured everything to be basic/normal...taken firewall off so there's no blockages there...

USB Connection Sharing Broken

Hey everybody.
Since updating to the OTA 1.25.405 update, USB internet connection sharing seems to be broken. It used to work before the update.
Phone gets registered as a USB 3G modem
Connecting works, getting an IP (192.168.100.100) works.
... but the default gateway (192.168.100.254) is unreachable when using the connection, so actually retrieving data is not possible.
I'm running the stock HTC Rom on a rooted wildfire - see attached file for software details.
Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?
Have you tried on several OS yet ?
It works for me, as we figured out on IRC yesterday, but not 100% sure of my ROM. Systeminfo shows Puzzle ROM but i am sure i used the RUU from shipped-rom then a backup of my data.
Yep, same behaviour on several OS'es. Device registers fine, but default gateway does not respond.

The same problem with USB connection sharing
http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/802404/ - Here I describe exactly the same problem I also have a rooted (unrevoked) wildfire with the original rom with update 1.
What I discovered about it is that the problem does not exist until first restart after a hard reset (factory defaults). I am in the Polish gsm provider Play.

Wildfire problem with USB sharing / tethering solved

THe problem existed in 1.25.405.1 ROM . It does not exist after installing the 1.37.405.1 to which I give link above. It is a later version of original ROM. It includes Polish, Romanian, English and STH cyrylic alphabet.
I installed it from an WinXP machine with drivers from the SD card. I encountered problems trying to do it from Win7 originally.
Greetz!
EDIT: Though I experienced some problems with accessing the app market after flashing 1.37.405.1.
same problem here
the same story, after update to 1.25.405.1 sharing stopped working
funny - among many failed attempts to connect, one time was successful!

Solution Wifi Android 2.2 Schlunds

I have no permissions to publish to HD Mini ROM Development, published the solution here.
I have the solution to put wifi in Android 2.2 of Schlunds, the problem is in the process "htcUPCTLoader.exe" not allowed to continue with the process.
The assignment of IP must be static, do not get the IP automatically
Here I leave kernel with the new install
TESTED ONLY WITH ANDROID 2.2 Schlunds
Sorry for my bad English
hey thanks man
maybe u will find a fix for derefas sd card fix too?
Does not work for me. The zImage and Module are exactly the same files I use.
The Problem ist not the htcUPCTLoader.exe process.
tzacapaca send me his working 2.2. image and it still dont work for me.
The reason must be something else...
Perhaps bootloader or startup.txt?

Or the Windows Mobile rom used?
After trying the Android images, I had a lot of GPS issues under WinMo (not working anymore). At the end it was fixed, but could it be that the WinMo roms can be of influence on Android?

I start to believe is this...i'm gonna use use Stock ROM and i will keep you posted if it will be any changes
nsourm has a dualbootloader in his ROM
Maybe its better to boot Android not from "within" WinMo.
Can someone test that?

In my case the prob was "htcUPCTLoader.exe" it was not allowing deamon to start..so i had to kill it and then run the run.bat file....
Can u try it this way..??..connecting the Mini with pc..running run.bat...after that killing htcUPCTLoader.exe process in task manager..and then running run.bat file again..??.... it might work....if not..then there's no harm done
I dont need to try. The kernel module file (*.ko) in the image is updated. So the problem (at least for me) is not adb push. must be something different.
Codiak, your not alone. I am also not able to turn WiFi on. Do you get Error when you go to the settings to turn it on? It's like its not picking up the WiFi on the mobile.
The only thing I changed was adding in the run.bat
Code:
taskkill / F / IM htcUPCTLoader.exe
On beginning of everything, to finish the process before starting the adb. I haven't touched anything of the files zImage and adb.exe

Its the same behavior as the fixed module was not installed.
If you tab Wifi, it just grays out and do nothing. No error message.
See, im on the standard ROM. And no matter what I try, I get the same.
Ok, so it not seem to be WiMo ROM related. I use a custom one.
So my last idea is the bootloader (haret)...
Okay everybody, I noticed something:
I could patch the bcm4329.ko file, after android booted. Now you have to restart android in order to enable wlan. Often it happend to me, that an error in the android wifi settings showed up. So I went back to windows mobile and checked my wifi setting there.
As I've also encountered the GPS problem, where one had to switch GPS on and off again in android to make it work in windows again I also tried it with wlan. Before I run haret, I switched off wlan in windows. Now android was able to initialize and start wlan.
Also it was not possible for me to enable wifi, if the usb cable was still connected to the phone before the first successful operation of wlan. Afterwards it surprisingly also worked with a connected cable. Since I'm at work now, I can not test wlan itself, as it is only possible to connect via DCHP here. This evening I'll try to do so with a static IP.
By the way, this dynamic vs. static IP thing is a common problem in froyo. You'll find a lot of discussions in the internet for other devices like samsung galaxy and so on.

Unfortunately there wasn't any precise error message. As you said it only was greyed out with "Fehler" (error) written below the wlan switch. It's strange that there still isn't any solution working for everyone.
For me, no "Fehler" came up. Just grayed out. Same behavior like I never applied the patched module. But i can see the patched .ko file in the phone
I´m using tzacapaca patched ext2 file that works for him...

[Q] Guys Need Help

Hello
I know I will be repeating, but i have read many things and they just do not get into my thick head
so let me start
i bought a Samsung Focus from ebay.in (cell-force.in)
i got the phone. it had initial software (i think pre nodo) installed. i connected it to Zune to my PC, it took some time but it installed the latest release, i.e. 7720
now, when i further explored i found that it is not possible to install apps other than marketplace, also the great well known wifi bug
now I need your help
could someone please help me, what should I do to solve this
I want my device to be able to install any application I want
I want to connect to wifi (if solution for that ssid but available after rooting/unlocking/jailbreaking my focus)
Also, if I do jailbreaking, and when any update is available, would I be able to update normally using Zune?
I read about chevron, but I think they do not support 7.5 (7720) yet
So pleaser held me
By the way, I have WinXP in my laptop, not Win7
Waiting for your help friends

you can if you have unlock (developer or Chevron) and access to the XAP files. as for the wifi bug, I'm not sure what you mean
now I need your help

possible, some you have to buy
I want to connect to wifi (if solution for that ssid but available after rooting/unlocking/jailbreaking my focus)
this should work regardless of where you are in the world. if you can't connect to a wifi then your phone's hardware might have an issue.
Also, if I do jailbreaking, and when any update is available, would I be able to update normally using Zune?
yes
I read about chevron, but I think they do not support 7.5 (7720) yet
no, it only supports OS ver. 7004/7008. You will need to downgrade to 7004 from a rom here, unlock with chevron and install several tools to keep the unlock.

Now, the long bits. I sent this to someone else, but posting it here so others can read. I'll build a newb how-to shortly.
First, you need to be on 7004/7008 OS version (check in settings/about).
If your version is greater than that (739x, 7720) then you need to downgrade to 700x
If your rom is greater than that then read my mini-guide here
Now, you need to unlock, so read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857127
It has a video tutorial, so it should be easy.
Once unlocked, immediately install Samsung Tools from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=924497 and run them.
Make sure "prevent relock" is checked (actually everything should be checked) and reset.
Then, install WP7 Root Tools from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1265321
Now, you should be able to sideload.
When you've done all these, you could update to 739x (NoDo) but not all the way to Mango (7720) since you need to do some more steps, which you can also read here (includes all steps):

thanks Sir
you are really very helpful
one last query, can i use winxp for all this. i have read people have trouble using winxp
if not, i will have to update to win7, which is not so easy
You're welcome, good luck!
Yes, you can use XP SP3.
just wanted to share this
i succesfully created apphub account with my university email id
and now i have interop unlocked, and can install 3rd party apps
but still cant connect to wifi (any wifi), even if broadcasting ssid is active, but i cant still connect to wifi
it is hard for me to believe that there is any hardware fault
well lets see, if MS fixes more bugs/adds features in the Nov 7 announcement
fingers crossed

Glad to hear you're sorted, at least for most bits.
I sincerely doubt on Nov 7 they will announce anything else than generation 2 phones and some software. But we'll see.
For your WiFi issue I suggest you try this: install Connectify on a laptop with Windows 7 and share the wireless connection (or a PC with a wireless dongle but with Windows 7). If that doesn't work, your phone has a hardware fault. I know for sure this works with any WP7 phone I've tried.
