My wifi icon is greyed out meaning I can't turn in on? Any else got this problem?
Is your device connected with a pc in activesync mode?
Wi-fi cannot be used if you're syncing your device.
Legend, cheers. Thought i disabled it, but the cable was still in.
Thanks again mate.

Hey all,
My touch has just turned off wifi, i go to the connections manager and it is blacked out so i cant even turn it back on....any thoughts?!!? Help please!!
Are you connected to your PC via USB? That might be the reason....
Thanks - I am a grade one idiot!!!
I can't turn on the Wifi...
I recharged the HD while it was on and tried to use the wifi. Probably shouldn't of but it seemed a good idea at the time The wifi won't turn on.
I just get the spinning windows wheel and then nothing.
I tired a soft reset and a hard reset nothing.
Any ideas?

Seems like it is a problem with other HTC's too...
I wonder if this is an issue related to ActiveSync. Anyhow, when connected to a PC, WiFi won't work, otherwise no problems ...
hello all
i have a problem with my touch hd. it is an unbranded not locked device from sunrise swiztzerland.
i flashed the rom to this one here:
RUU_BlackStone_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.0_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
now in my communications manager the wifi is greyed out.
i can still get wifi running over the settings (bottom right). any idea what is wrong ?
thanks
Wifi option is gray, when a phone is connected to a pc with usb cable, try to disconnect it.
thx. i got the prob. somehow activesync is not stopping properly when disconnected, so the devce seems to think its still connected...
Any ideas why it would disconnect? I'm sure it didn't prior to me updating to the latest ROM. As soon as I disconnect again from my PC the WiFi automatically reconnects. Any help or advice is appreciated.

Sorry, I thought I could help, but Activesync seems to cut of wireless for me too.
I just solved that problems 2 mins ago
I disabled IntelProset wireless software and enabled wireless Zero Configuration in the services... For me it was a software conflict. Hope that helps.
Thanks for your help Xeon. But for some strange reason as of today my WiFi connection is no longer dropping when it is connected to my PC now. I've not changed anything on either my phone or my PC so I'm none the wiser. Sorry I can't help anyone else in this situation. Hopefully Xeons answer will help others.
Erm... isn't there a "Allow wireless connection on device when connected to desktop" checkbox under PC's Activesync/File/Connection settings? Is it checked?

When I go to settings, wireless controls, my wifi shows as on and wont turn off when I hit the slider icon, when I go into the wifi settings its shows it is off?
Neither controls work.
any ideas?
Is the usb cable plugged in? Wifi on/off is greyed out when usb connected
thanks for the reply,
No mate nothing is connected?
When I try to turn on wifi it turns itself off immediately. I'm pretty darn sure the hardware is there, they just made some change to prevent turning on wifi.
Any ideas how to get it back on?
Your ideas are appreciated. Specs attached.
This was actually solved with a USB wifi dongle. Amazingly the android device recognized it immediately
