Help - Bluetooth and wifi keep turning themselves on

Hi, guys. Hope you can help...
We have two xda execs on o2. The first is fine - no real probs. On the second, wifi and bluetooth keep activating themselves and are a drain on the battery.
I can't seem to turn it off - The turn on wifi and bluetooth boxes are checked in settings even though I unchecked them half an hour ago when I last turned off bluetooth and wi-fi.
Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks

I would gladly swap for my XDA which keeps switching Bluetooth OFF! lol.
Sorry, I couldn't help from posting given that a significant number of XDA users have the complete opposite problem..
Other than that, I can't help you. I assume you're not running any third party software on there to monitor BT / WiFi ?

Not sure which is worse!
I'm not running any monitoring software.

gaspx: didn't you resolve it yet!?

@Vijay, nearly! -- I think ozBT is going to be the saviour for my XDA, but today it was my BT headset which had stopped working(!!);
Actually, come to think of it, ozBT will also switch off BT / Wifi, so you could do worse than downloading that Goldie..
http://oz.sciox.org/ozbt.html
Although i'd be more inclined to look at what software you have installed on your Exec and try and find out which, if any, has BT/WiFi hooks that may be turning them on automagically.
Failing that, Hard Reset the whole thing (after a backup is taken of course..) and see whether the problem is still happening on a fresh device.

O2 Xda Stealth, Wifi card not detected.

Hi guys,
Inherited a Stealth few weeks back but i realised that the Wireless option (to turn it on and off) doesnt work, nothing happens when i try to turn on my wifi, so i did a hard reset, but after the hard reset, it doesnt even detect or show up my wireless options. Any ideas guys?

What ROM are you using ??? I had a similar problem with my stealth for over 6 months after upgrading ROM....I tried every thing including careful changes in registry ....the problem was only solved after downgrading to the original ROM more than once ....I still get minor problems when WIFI wouldnot load but works after repeated soft reset ....I suggest you try to soft reset few times an see if this solves the problem....best of lucks....

hi man,
Thanks for replying.
I am using WWE_RM061208. Everytime i restart the phone it says, "Unrecognized card in slot" i am assuming this is the wifi card? any ideas? which version rom should i be using? It asks me to enter the device driver/name or something. thanks.

The unknown card is the wifi card....I used to get this notification daily for over 6 months when the wifi was not working .....Try soft-reset few times and if the notification disappears then wifi should work.....Is your ROM Original or cooked???? have you upgraded the ROM at all??

HI man,
Yes i have upgraded the ROM from www.mwg.com but it doesnt really do much, some of the settings still are around. Any suggestion which ROM should i use? What ROM are u using man? I tried soft reseting a few times but it doesnt work, it still comes up.

The ROM from mwg is original and I used it for downgrade from wm6 (YUC)..... is the wifi working when you hard reset the device ????....I used yuc wm6 but because of wifi problem there, I downgraded from mwg and then upgraded again to yuc wm6 from here

Hello All,
Since a fortnight, am observing strange problems within Network (clogs) and Virus Attacks on my Internet Cable based connection. This is a 256 Kbps line.
Problem I can see is:
a) A script or attacked is launched from a remote server/machine. It's domain address is 222360.com. Attacks happened from union.222360.com, s.222360.com and now with v.222360.com.
b) Once the scripts is launched (.js script), it gets hooked within my browser (Firefox 2.0.0.11).
c) Then, my internet activity will be disrupted severely for some time!! (can't open any page). I am using "Adblock Plus" within Firebox to block this script off.
d) Is there is no script, an attacked is launched on the open HTTP ports or on Yahoo Messenger.
e) Ultimately, an attack is made in form or Trojan or Exploit to gain access or to steal information from my system.
I can see the following logs from the NAV 2007 firewall.

I have similar problems with my stealth..
But worse...
My wireless manager only shows Bluetooth and Phone..
No more Wi-Fi thing..
It happen when i downgrade it to WM5,i got it from mwg..
When i'm using Yuc's WM6 sometimes the wifi works,sometimes it doesn't..
So i decided to downgrade it..
But now i can't use my wifi anymore..
I've been Downgrade and re-upgrade it like 4 times and that long processes did nothing for me..
Anyone have similar problems?

I had a similar problem with wifi for over one year . I had to down and upgrade my stealth 3 or 4 times and finally worked alone after repeat soft reset ...another problem is that you may see wifi icon but doesnot work on pressing it...try removing the battery for 6 to 12 hours and restart again...now at this time I did soft reset for my stealth and the wifi didnot load but iam sure it will work after few hours or tomorrow

First of all thank God,because sending this guy(Yuc) to us..you gave a new life for our O2Xda Stealth,like a candle shining in the dark..Trilions thanks to you.
Actually i would like to ask somebody's help about ZiIME.CAB.. i deleted phoneime.dll but still can't delete zisip_Opt.dll.. it said "Cannot delete file ZiSip_Opt:the file may be in read-only memory,on a write-protected disk,or currently in use by another applications"
is there another way to delete this file?
Secondly how to kill "cprog.exe" in Task Manager?
Another silly question is can somebody upgrade O2XdaStealth GPRS Cellular Data Link to 3G or 3.5G..or is there any Booster for Internet connection?

the 02 xda stealth camera. it was its quality built-in GPS receiver, CK3300 adds navigation functions to the benefits of the CK3100 kit. It enables the driver to access wirelessely NMEA-0183 standard GPS data via Bluetooth . Those Data can be used with all Smartphones or PDAs. The GPS output may also be utilised with the Route 66 navigation software for Symbian mobile phones, allowing not just house-number precision navigation but also up-to-date traffic information.

After almost 9 years from this post, my stealth is still alive

I can not turn on wifi in my htc elf

Hello, i need your help. I can´t turn on wifi in my device. I try with a lot of roms, radios, etc. but it impossible. When i touch de wifi icon the machine think a few seconds and then it stay in grey again. Sorry for my poor english.

I have the same problem here. I own an HTC TOUCH (ELFin) - IPL 2.21.002 / SPL 2.21.0000 and the original ROM from Orange (Spain). I can not tell you when it happened but i tried several ROMS and Radios and what is happening is: I go to Comm Manager, and tap on WLAN icon to turn it on, I see Windows spinning ball and finally I get the grey icon again.
Can somebody help me with this please? I really don´t know what to do

Hi
You write you tried many roms but your SPL shows your device is Cid locked Unless you flashed back you your original orange rom ? Anyway did you use wifi before flashing? did you try Settings/Connections and not only Commanager?

Hi! I had exactly the same problem after sim unlocking the phone.
The wifi could not turn on, no matter what I did.
I tried other radios, other roms, my roms but wifi was not working.
I could not even see the MAC address of the wifi chip.
The field inside the Wifi program was empty.
So I was absolutely sure that the wifi chip was not working anymore.
But one day after about a year of non operating wifi I tried to change my rom.
After some flashing and installing I tried to start the wifi without hope.
And IT WORKED! And the MAC address was visible again!
I don't know how that happened, I don't know how to guide you to fix it,
but don't give up trying!

Here is solution for your problem:

Hi there ! My girlfriend owns T-Mobile MDA Touch that has the same problem as described above: Pressing the grey WiFi icon (Comm Manager) > Thinking for a few secs > Icon stays grey. I spent last 2 days of searching for a solution without success. Even this forum seems too difficult to me. I don't understand to many terms too... I would really appreciate if someone patient helped me. I've already backuped the phone via WMDC (& Outlook) so far. I also tried the hard reset too but it didn't fixed the problem. I would also like to know if her T-Mobile MDA Touch equals HTC Elf ? Green & red button on her device is larger that on the picture of HTC Elf...

Keep Connection Alive - Ozone

Hi everyone,
I ordered my Ozone the day it became available on VZW's site, and xda-dev has been the only place that I've been able to find any truly helpful info. This is my first smartphone, and the community here has been invaluable. Thank you all.
I have a couple of issues that I haven't been able to figure out yet. The one from the title - I use two apps; Pandora and WMtorrent, that time out - no matter what I've tried- when I start them and put the phone down. Especially frustrating in Pandora... I can only sing along with the first two minutes of any song now - very embarrassing at parties.
I am making an assumption about the source of the Pandora problem, I know it isn't supported on the Ozone. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
I've hunted around in the registry, but I haven't found anything to tweak connection settings yet. Any advice appreciated.
Also, if anyone knows how to set the phone to always use wifi when available, that would help too. I set Start> settings> connections >advanced to either automatic or wifi, and as soon as I get out of range it defaults to VZW as the preferred connection.
Lastly, the HTC ref name for my phone is 'Cedar'. Any difference worth noting? I'm looking forward to the cooked ROMs that are being developed for the Maple.
Thanks again for a great community.

When you into COMM Mgr to turn Wifi On, turn Data Connection off at the same time.
Reverse process when you turn Wifi Off.

I'm having an identical problem with Pandora except I find even if I'm surfing the web or making button presses within Pandora, the song still times out after about 2 minutes. That happens with each and very song but it will eventually switch to the next song if I let it sit. I'm on the Sprint HTC Snap.

With the HTC Dash 3G (T-Mobile version of the Snap) there is a couple registry edits you can do to keep the connection open.. perhaps there is something close for the other versions. Here are the reg keys foe the Dash 3G:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\
{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\
Connections\*your connection name*\AlwaysOn = 1
There will be two *your connection name* to look for one is Data the other Internet (Internet is usually assigned to WiFi connections or 3G)

Yup, that worked for me! I bet it'll kill battery life though. This must be a problem specific to pandora since none of my other streaming radio/youtube apps lose collection. Still... Many Thanks!

I tried this reg edit but it still cuts out. One time one song played all the way through, never before or after that though. I'm using a 3vo rom on the HTC OZONE for Verizon (CEDAR) any thoughts? I think I'll update to the latest rom by 3vo tomorrow.

I tried changing my power settings but it didn't seem to help, maybe I just need a clean start, time for an updated rom! Thanks for the help though!

I'm now running the latest rom from HTC tried the registry edit, rebooted my phone, and still my pandora cuts out after about 2 minutes. Any suggestions on what my power management settings or any other settings should be to make this work?
Thanks.

[Q] Bluetooth problem, cannot search!

Hi All,
I'm facing a problem with my Omnia 7 (T-Mobile unlocked). Whenever i turn on bluetooth nothing happens. it is unable to find my headset.
Going into diagnosis app then *#232333# "BT Search Test" it shows "Search Fail!!!"
I have tried several ROMs from several carriers and even non-branded ones but still the same. It was working before but suddenly stopped!
Any ideas?

I have a bug too with bluetooth and Mango. no problem on Nodo.
The solution :
Enable bluetooth in settings
Restart your phone with bluetooth enable
Go to bluetooth settings
Search works after restart, you will be able to see the third party bluetooth devices
I'm not sure devices will auto connect next time. Need to check.

After updating with I8700XXKI3 firmware bluetooth is working fine now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301477

Having the same problem since updating to Mango on my Omnia 7. Was fine before.
I found that it works if i switch WiFi on at the same time.

Did flashing the ROM fix it for you?
My phones already been replaced with a refurbished one. This worked fine for a few days but seems to have gone again. I received a couple of Samsung updates for my phone this morning which took my phone up to;
OS: 7.10.7720.68
F/W: 2424.11.9.2
Radio: 2424.11.9.1
Bootloader: 5.9.0.6

I've updated the firmware BUT still no luck
Hello, no joy even after updating to the firmware here http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2011...are-with-internet-sharing-available-i8700ki4/. For your information, I'm trying to connect the Nokia BH-503.

strange i just tried it now and succesfully paired to my head set
but it works just for music, if i play a video it plays from the external (back) speaker, weird!!!!

This issue is starting to annoy me.
Are there any other things that I can try before going to a Samsung repair shop?

Today I noticed the same problem Tried flashing to several 7004 firmwares but no joy. When I turn on bluetooth its only searching and not finding any device. Diagnosis states "search fail". Is this a hardware issue? What else should I try?
Please help

............

Turn the wifi off, and then try to pair and connect.
Worked instantly for me and nokian bh-111 after i did it.
