WiFi connection problem - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

Hello,
There is a problem with my Touch Diamond 2 phone and it is about the connection with WiFi. I recently updated the rom to manilla 2.5 because HTC has made a rom update on their site for us as users for free so I decided to update it. But now I have a problem that I haven't had before and that is that if I connect to wifi and enter the passkey it is all right connected, but when I open the opera internet browser or just want to update the weather in the HTC menu it says that it has no connection or I get a red page with some error information like 'Can't connect to server..'. It do show the 2 arrows that means that it has connection. It also has a IP address in the settings but still no connection. If I connect to normal 3G or HSDPA network it has fast internet and works fine (but it costs money of my mobile subscription of course... )
If anyone could help me I would appreciate that much!
btw: I googled already but the posts on forums that I could find are like half so there is no solution brought because people are giving no answer. I hope that you guys could help me out with this
Thanks!

The new roms that i have tried have not had the WIFI Auto On feature. to install this feature ack again install this cab it works just like the old wm6.5 ROMs

This cab allows the WIFI to auto start whenever you open Opera or check e-mail etc.....

How to use P3600 as HSDPA Modem

I want to setup my P3600 (English ROM) as a 3.5G modem for my PC but not successful yet. The Telco service staff has no idea too and pass me a manual for dopod 838 pro. The mentioned programs are not there, nor in my dopod D810 CD.
I can:
- Activesync using USB
- Activesync using bluetooth
Question:
- Should I use the same HTC modem dialer on my PC for XDA?
- Should I use the Start->Program->Internet Sharing?. It allows me to choose bluetooth or USB to PC but both not working too after connect.
Anyone successfully connect their PC via P3600 using HSDPA, pls share the steps. Many thanks.
Eventually, I figure it out myself.
Forget all the HTC modem dialer or wireless modem program as in Xda.
1. Start->Program->Internet Sharing on WM5.0
2. Select the connection type: USB or BT
3. Select "Connect"
4. Then connect the USB and done.
For BT, it would have instruction for you to start PAN now. done.
Woo, it's much easier than the HTC dialer. But now my problem is VPN problem with my telco.
Thanks very much for reporting this info back, it will come in useful when I get my trinity!

just 2¢...
Sadly, because Internet Sharing is actually a NAT server running on your phone, it could prevent you from using 'classic' VPN. You can find more details by googling for 'VPN over NAT'.
for VPN purposes you can always use old good wireless modem mode. it works well.
I don't think it is related to NAT. As long as the VPN ports are opened, it should work. I am using a Wireless router at home and no trouble at all for using VPN under NAT.
Checked with telco. They can enable it for me with extra charge/month. and also the traffic would be charged as expensive GPRS plan. What kind of service!!!
Think twice before subscribing. I used "WonToFee / 1-1-" . The sales that say it can work for VPN may not even know what a TCP port is.
Anyone has use VPN over HSDPA with another telco? e.g. SMOOTH TONE
Hello,
This thread is a bit old, however I think it is related to my problem: I am trying to use Internet Sharing on my P3600 (ROM 1.23.405.2 / Radio ROM 1.38.00.11). Using BT, it works just fine. However, when connected on USB it works fine only for the first time. When I tap "disconnect", the HSDPA connection is stopped, but the status keeps displaying "Connected". There is now way to use Internet Sharing again before a soft reset (Windows XP wouldn't even recognize the P3600 again). Is this a known issue? I have googled a bit, but I haven't found any similar problems.
Thanks!

Hi shefful,
I have had the same problem. I have come across a possible solution while browsing forums. When you need to disconnect press and hold down the red end call button for a few seconds and this disconnects the modem. I haven't tried this yet but it's worth a shot.

Hi adamwolfe,
Thanks for your help, unfortunatelly this is not the solution to my problem. The GPRS connection ends (according to the icon on top of the screen), but the status keeps displaying "Connected". The application stops responding and can't be stopped from Settings/Memory/Runnning Programs.
Hi shefful,
Yeah, I have the same problem too. Looks like the program freezes in the Connected status. Even tried terminating Internet Sharing with Start/Settings/.../Memory/Running Programs and relaunching Internet Sharing.
Sometimes I get a popup message saying the remote host has terminated the connection before the program hangs. I think this may be the cause of the problem. Which mobile operator are you on?
Rebooting is the only solution so far. Fortunately the Trinity reboots in 20 seconds - one of the fastest in the PPC market I think.
Hi ayhansan,
For other reasons I needed to hard reset my Trinity and the freezing problem has disappeared. I don't know what had caused this problem, I just hope it won't happen again. If I disconnect the USB cable, the status changes to "disconnected" and I can always reconnect.
same problem here
i am connecting to laptop thru USB
after I disconnect UMTS phone syaing still connected
and want kill Internet Sharing
???
thanks

the wifi problem always unsolved

Like already write, I'm looking to helps ref a singular problem in my ppc branded SB but with sw THC in english - I was buy it in thailand one month ago and until 20 of december everythink was ok, but...
I found that the ROM contain the: HTC TyTN 1.18.255.106 ExtROM WWE
The NETWORK MANAGER show me that the tytn is CONNECT to WIFI access point but in the CONNECTIONS always appear no any presence of WIRELESS SERVICE that I can select to use for browse my server , internet and/or skype call
If I use the usb connection there is connection, same by umts and gprs services
Really I don't unterstand what's happen!
I was already many time doing the hard reset but nothing is change!
What you think about?
May be that there are corrupted files that avoid to install few commands?
Regards Freddie
There are the other part of sw that are install in the device by the manufacturer or seller that are not include inside the rom place?
Thanks in advance for your helpings

go to setting >connections>network cards>
then
you will see a bunch of access points
when you see the one that says available
hold the styles down on it
tap connect
and you should be ok
also check the drop down menu on the bottom of the page
make sure its on both access points and whatever else it says
and also disable the cingular proxy
start>settings>connections>connections>setup proxy server>uncheck the uses proxy server to connect to the internet box
Sorry may be that I was wrong explaine you:
1. in the setting>connections>network cards = no problem my tytn find the access point and after my prompt connect without problem.
2. the problem is in the setting>connections>connections>advanced>select networks>my ISP>edit ... = where there are no tracks of the wireless network available to be select, in way to use the wifi connection that in setting>connections>network cards is ON
I wait your reply thanks
Black Eagle
black eagle,
I think I've undertand your question...
If you have found the WiFi access point and have gotten conected, there is no need to set a conection for that access point;At least, for me that it's not necesary.
When I go to a public place with wifi, or in my home LAN, just let the connections settings to "My ISP" without any changes (no new modem, nothing at all) and thats all, you can surf the net.

my problem solved
hi mablan,
thanx very much, fortunately i searched the forum for wifi and got ur post.
i too had the problem of getting good wifi connectivity over my adsl router witg my prophet( O2 neo) but not able to surf net in PIE. when i selected network as "My ISP" it all gone and now i am able to surf my adsl on neo, without any prblem.
thanx once again.
now only problem arises of autometically shifting/choosing of network for wifi and gprs. i remember it is stated somwhere in forum, i will make a try.
Hello mablan,
thanks for your interesting in my singular problem.
I understand what you mean but is not my case, even if my ppc in the setting>wireless lan>advanced>status result connected to the network, I cannot surf internet.
If I go to setting>networks cards i find my home hotspot that result waiting to connecting but ... always not connected
= in the wireless lan I am connected but in the network cards my connection don't exist - also in the connections>connections there is not the choice to select wireless network, don't exist
Hi BlackEagle, now I undestand your problem.
I'm sorry, I don't know what could be the cause of your problem.
Just a dumb question: Have you try to change the settings of your wireless network? I mean, in settings>connections>networkcards tap the name of the wn you want to use and change the settings of the Network key and 802.1x tabs...
If I found arround someplace something that can help you will let you know
regards and hope you find the answer..I'm sure someone here at the forum will help you

Hi,
.NET CF2 is the microsoft.NET software that can you download from msoft website:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...cb-4362-4b0d-8edd-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en
download it 22,6 mb and with your device connect by usb install it, when you start the installation, it find your device connect and install just the appropriate drivers, not all the sw

Thanks Black Eagle I`ll try that!

so?
i am having the same problem with windows M 6 so looking for solutions. how does it matter if someone else faced the same problem 2 years ago?
Its relevant because MS may not be offering the same software to download. I've noticed that some of the older solutions aren't any good for certain things anymore as the apps no longer work for the OS I'm using or that the app, though easily found a while ago, is no longer supported by certain sites.

PiE not Browsing over 3G

Hi All
Sorry if this is a duplicate thread, I searched but coudln't find anything.
My PiE works fine only under WiFi, but never seems to want to work over my mobile data connection.
My BBConnect, and HTC Home Weather can establish and use the connection no problems, but not with PiE.
Any suggestions on how I can fix this up
Thank you!
...actually pie isn't working at all even over WiFi.
I click on any link, it says connecting then it stops...
i would
1 check the setting in connection advanced to see if it was set to use the right connection to access the internet
2 try another browser then pie (it being the worst browser on the planet could be an issue)
3½ if special network settings for gateway and or dns was set i would remove them or change them to the connect ones

My other programs (BBConnect, HTC Weather) have no problems getting on.
Just PIE (was set for Rogers Internet) I also tried My Blackberry and HTC Home still updates, but not PIE....
I thought I would bump this.
I gave up and did a re-install. Everything was fine for a bit, and its back again.
All I have installed is SyncML Client, VJDevice Lock, Today Agenda, voice command BBConnect.
Its ONLY IE that won't work. I would really appreciate some help with this one!
So it is the blackberry software that is doing it. I think it is forcing you to use that, rather than the regular data connection.
If anyone can help me manage this, I would appreciate it.
Thank you!
I have a similar browser related problem...
Everything works on 3G, GPRS, WiFi, etc... EXCEPT PIE only does not work with WiFi, same symptoms you are receiving. I have to turn off the WiFi to get PIE to work. With WiFi on, email and all other connectivity programs can stilll get data from the web.
There is something here where PIE settings are somehow slightly different than the WiFi connection....
Anyone have any ideas? The fix for me would also fix the same issue for you...
...and a follow up to the issue, if I wanted to change the default browser in WM6 to NetFront of Opera, how would I go about doing that?

Pre installed Opera 9.5 Build 2682 connection problems.

Hi, I am new to this forum and am having a few problems with the Opera browser that comes pre-installed on the Touch HD (9,5 Build 2682).
I have tried searching the forum but can not find any reference to the problem I am having.
Quite often the browser will not load any page. The green progress bar at the bottom starts to move then just sits there and the page is not loaded. (Every other data application will work so its not a data connection problem)
If I soft reset it will browse ok again.
Another problem is that when I connect via wifi, the browser seems to not use the wifi connection. When I search on Google for my ip address it returns a 212 address which belongs to Vodafone (my network). If I then open IE and do the same I get the correct IP of my dsl. I have tried this on a number of wifi points. This problem also shows up when I browse to the BBC iplayer web site as it will display “please connect via wifi” when the wifi is connected.
I have on a few random occasions streamed the iplayer material ok so, I assume it was then connected to the wifi ok, but most of the time it will say “please connect to wifi”
I tried installing the latest Opera from their web site (9.51b2). It shows up in the programs folder as Opera 9.5 Beta. This seemed to work ok on both GPRS and wifi, the first time I run it, but then after running the factory installed version it does the same thing and some times crashes and will no rerun until after a soft reset.
It is possible that having both versions is causing problems but I don’t see any way of removing the pre installed version as it does not show up in the “installed programs” list?
Anybody else get these problems?
Thanks
Regards
Jason
Further to the above, I have found that the only way to get the Opera browser to definately use the wifi is to turn the radio part of the phone off so there is no GPRS data connection.
If I just turn the wifi on the browser almost always ignores it and still connects via the GPRS data connection, then when I turn the wifi off again the browser will then sometimes fail to load any page until a soft reset.
I do not have any of these problems with I.E or Opera Mini but they are no way as good as the full Opera 9.5
Is anybody else having these problems with Opera or is it just me?
(P.S a colleague of mine has just installed the latest Opera version from their website on an old Vario and it did the same thing with wifi connected, ignored it and connected via the GPRS data connection. Does Opera have a big problem here?)
I have no problems with wifi access (it works ok), but I have experienced that Opera hangs while loading over the data connection (regardless G,E,3G and HSDPA, it actually doesn't load anything).
The trick is when it happens to go to the opera menu (the one in the lower right corner with Settings, Downloads, Page info etc...) and choose Exit. You will need to confirm that action. Start Opera again and voila it works. So no soft resets anymore. And it has no connection with the Opera config - I tried default and my settings for numerous things in config and it still hangs.
IE works fine anytime, any connection - so that eliminates windows or data connection problems.
I use WkTask and close Opera by its little x - perhaps sometimes it doesn't close Opera properly after the successful surfing and on the next run opera hangs while loading. I think that before WKtask I didn't experience such problems. I haven't tested it without WKtask once I noticed this hang so I may be wrong about the good old WKtask. Perhaps Opera needs to be closed through its Exit function?
I hope this trick works for you - cheers!
Opera 9.5 versions thread
To easily find all opera 9.5 versions in a single place go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486502
So you can choose the one that fits you
Thanks for the replies. I have sorted this problem now by flashing the rom with Duttys HD v1.9b XTREME.
This rom comes with opera version is 9.5 build 15613 which so far works as it should, uses wifi when its available and GPRS when its not. It also to date has not “got stuck” and failed to load a page (obviously when wifi or gprs is available)
(In fact the whole phone now works better with this rom but there are numerous threads already about this and how to flash!!)
Looks like build 2682 defiantly has a bug to me.

I think i've found the solution! Im using build 15613 so i don't know if this will work for the version that comes pre-installed. If it doesn't it's not hard to find build 15613.
In the TouchFLO interface:
Home / Settings / Communications / Settings / Wireless LAN / Power Mode tab / move slider to far left ( Best Performance )
I've tested it a few time and now opera uses wifi whenever it's available.
wifi works on some browser not with others
Hi All , I have a similar problem but mine is that when I use Opera browser it would use my wifi connection but if I use.. say Iris or Skyfire it uses my 3g data connection even though the wifi is still on. this is frustrating as data connection is expensive for me and I usually the wifi hotspots to do my surfing when I'm outdoors
any advice on how I can configure all browser to use wifi when available and only use data connection when its not available ... pls point me in the right direction on this, Im using stock ROM for HTC HD.
Cheers

NO update from Wi-Fi ?!?! (Meteo - Stock Actions)

Hi guys,
in the building where I work, the signal doesn't reach inside, but I do have the possibility to connect the HD2 to the internet using Wi-Fi.
I can go on any web page using any browser, but my HD2 won't never update the Meteo or the Stock Action screen unless I get a 3G connection, which by way costs me heaps of money.
I would like to know if there is any way to sincronyze the Data Services also with the Wi-Fi connection.
Thanks,
Alberto.
mmmm strange... it seems to work for me fine... let me check my settings

Alberto,
I can reproduce the problem. With the phone off and Wi-Fi enabled, no update is received for stock and weather.
ccristal
My HD2 updates only using the phone line (instead of the free Wi-Fi), and as in my work place my operator doesn't reach directly, I wasted a day worth of salary in less than a week!
Any help on HOW TO FORCE the HD2 to USE FIRST Wi-Fi connection, or ONLY Wi-Fi connection to update will be really appreciated!
Been looking and still couldn't find any clue.
Same problem here and by the way, try turning off the phone connection and downloading an email attachment using wifi only, download speeds are REALLY slow - I suspect it is still using the cellular connection even though the phone says it is off
i'm not sure if this is the same problem as you, but my phone always updated using data connection instead of wi-fi, you had to turn off the automatic updates for weather, email etc. But sometimes it wont update my weather using wi-fi it just says unable?
..got the same problem, cant update the weather with the wifi only..i disabled the automatically update and then turned on the wifi but still nothing..
No problems here updating weather or stocks by wifi...
Hi, can you hare your setting with us?

Your meteo update settings for ie., and also your operator name and connection settings
Hey..i found an alternative way to update the weather in my city through wifi and it finally works!
Go to weather app and just add your city as a new location..after that go to your home screen and tap on the world clock where you 'll see: ''my location'' and your city recently added..just tap it to your city and thats it.
That works for me.
Thanks!
Let me try this and I'll tell you if it works also for me.
Hi there.
You should check on the "Configure Wireless Network" page if the combo " Connects to:" is set to "The internet" instead of some other network
