Need help with Samsung i780 WiFi

Hi there every one...
I got my phone just couple days ago, and I'm really satisfied with every thing , Bluetooth, GPS, Speed, etc...
but I got very interesting problem with the WiFi..
It detects networks, but can't connect to them.. also I can't connect to my home Wirless network,
When I try to connect to any WiFi network, it tries to connect and then it marks the connection with red "x" with comment that the network is unavailable
when I tried to make an adhoc connection with my Laptop, it says that it is connected, and could ping my phone..
tried later to connect to my WiFi network after I disabled all kinds of protections and encryptions and after I enabled the protections again... no good
please help, because WiFi is extremely important feature that I need...
ROM: PDA = PHONE = i780DXHD1
I didn't flash the device, nor touched the ROM...
any help will be very very appreciated
thanx in advance

common guys...
no body experienced such problem?????
please I need your help...

Well... could a 3D party WiFi manager force it to connect ??
if it could... can you please recommend me one?

You havent said much as to exactly whats happening vs what you've tried. Have you tried connecting to your home network with encryption off?If it connects with security switched off, then try connecting with wep on,then switch to wpa.

Well.. I did every thing you said and nothing happened... even after a hard reset...
also what I've noticed is I can't ping my phone on each connection... =(
sometimes it connects and can be pinged....and sometimes not which drove me crazy already =(
do you have any ideas???

Same here, no solution.

how do you think??

a solution
Hi guys... Actually i faced this problem several days ago. I think this is a bug but im not sure since im not expert in this. My i780 can connect to some networks and can't for some. Here is a trick:
In the network device tab, edit the setting of your Samsung wifi card
Change to Use specific IP address:
IP 192.168.0.1
and that's all for now, leave other settings default
Now you can connect to the network but cannot use it. And somehow when you disconnect the connection, the Wifi in your Wireless Connection might disappear. Try to reset the phone and the Wifi is back.
Change the settings back to Use server-assigned IP and you can use the Wifi now. It really works. And now my i780 can connect to any network, lucky me
Ahh, forgot abt this... You can refer to this topic as well. Hope this help

HTC WIFI Problem resolution..........

I have searched a lot on this forum and have not found any solution to the wifi problem on HTC diamond....I am sure there are experts in this forum who have worked around their way and I would request them to post their comments as to how they have got their WIFI talking on HTC Diamond...........
I am trying connecting to my home wireless network. It finds the network but unable to connect to it. Any help please? Has anyone managed to get it connected to any Wifi? I ahve already set the power management to "best performace...no succes.......
(My laptop and O2 stealth does get connected to the same network and it an open wifi connection)...........PLZ Help.....

There is no wifi problem on the Diamond. it works fine for on every ROM I have used.
It sounds like you haven't set the access key in your Diamond.

Would be kind enough to elaborate......Mine is open WIFI router, there is no need for any pass keys......my other phone O2 stealth perfectly connects while HTC diamond doesn't.........
Please do have a problem and that the reason there are so many view on this thread in just 30 minutes....
thanking you in advance for your help........

i've never known any problems, have u flashed a cooked ROM or changed the Radio?
if so, i would try going back to stock and see if it works then, if not, send it back as faulty.

I'm not aware of any 'known issue' with the WiFi on the Diamond either, certainly mine and my girlfriend's both work fine in this respect. If you've never successfully connected to any wireless network then you've got a hardware issue; send your phone back to be repaired and stop wasting time looking for a software solution would be my advice.

wifi,,,
Glad that a lot of users doesn't had problem with the wifi, but it's an iminent malfunction, and looks to be a hardware problems...
I had change my rom and radios a lot, and the issues are the same:
Opened the comm manager or the settings-connection-wifi, turn on the wifi, and it's turn off again...
In my case, often worked properly after soft reset, and i often connect with 3g or gprs, but...it's a suck!!!

Step by step......connecting to wifi....

Would you please step by step elaborate ....connecting to an open wifi network......will be really greatful........

if your diamond is not connecting to your router there is some posibilities. Are you at home or work, at work on the AP you can have security setings and MAC filtering. At home if you have not implement security and mac filtering you can be to far of your router, You must be between -60 and -80 Db max and at -80 it is easyer with a MIMO router, etc...

Got the same problem as you
this is how i fixed mine.
1) I download a radio rom thing and install it
2) restart the device and the wifi is working perfectly.
No problems at all!

Got the same problem as you
I download a radio rom and install it but still turn off again

Broken Wifi? And Skype not working?

Hi all I got the US HD2 when it first came out and since then I have been very happy with it. But just now for some reason it won't connect to my home wifi anymore. It worked this morning but then like an hour ago it just won't work. I did a hard reset and the problem still exists. Any chance that this is caused by maybe a overheat or anything like that? Or maybe it's time for me to go back to the store and get another one?
Also I tried so hard to get Skype for Windows Mobile working on it but no luck. I searched online and saw people saying it is working but for some reason it just won't connect at all. I managed to get to the login screen, type in the info and then click sign in. Then it just stayed at the Skype logging in screen with the rotating blue circle. After a minute or 2 an error pops up saying there is error connecting please check data connection. I tried to do this with wifi, 3g, and ActiveSync and they all got the same result. So anyone got any idea about why? I really need to have Skype working on my phone as I need to have a foreign number.
Thank you all

the other day I was trying to connect to wifi after trying to use the 'share internet' tethering option...and it just kept loading over and over (the wifi sign) and it would not connect....
I flashed it back to stock and then flashed it to the latest energy rom now it seems fine..but I have not tried the tethering option yet, maybe that has something to do with it... not sure..

I figured out the WiFi problem. It turns out that I turned turned the encryption of my router from tkip to aes by accident and the HD2 doesn't work on aes. But I am still having trouble connecting to Skype... Anyone got amy luck? Or perhaps can somebody who managed to get Skype working help me out a bit?

Here's my WiFi issue...
My HD2 shows that it is connected but there is no data flow. I have a Linksys WRT610n router which is PW secure. I also have a HTC S743 that connects with no issues. I'm having a WTF red alert here... any help would draw 2 quarts of blood from me for payment, which you could sell for crack money. Anyone?

Yeah I got it.. I slipped the sim card out and then reinsert it, I noticed it went in just a tad deeper, it did the trick. WiFi is now working. The world can continue to spin. Carry on...

[Q] HTC HD Mini Wifi issue

Hi,
Since past couple of days my HTC HD Mini handset is not detecting the wifi network. I tried placing it very near to router but still I could not see any available network.
I also tried to add network manually and giving the security key. But still it does not show the network and says <network id> unavailable.
As far as I remember I have not done changes in settings.
Can anyone help me to identify and resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
- Abhijeet

I think it must be a hardware failure. To ensure get a hardreset. If the problem continues, no doubt.
Good luck!!

Did you try another wifi router? If yes, it migth be h/w issue. otherwise, should be setup issue.

HTC HD Mini Wifi Issue
Thanks everyone for your kind reply.
To my surprise, now my phone has started detecting the wifi network. For some odd reason it was not detecting any of the wifi network.
I really don't know how it started working now but I will use your tips in case I face similar problem in future.
Thanks,
- Abhijeet

try some 3rd party software, e.g. WIFI Monster.

[Q] Eduroam and vegacomb

Hee guys,
Does somebody know how to get Wifi over eduroam (PEAP/Masc.V2) using vegacomb?
I really don't know anything about servers/ports/certificates..
All I can say: It sees the wi-fi, and got 5 stripes.. When I connect using PEAP/MascV2 ([email protected], no anonymous, and password), the 5 stripes disappears and it is endlessly trying to connect.
Cheers,
Duvee.

Hi,
I have the same problem, but am able to provide some more information.
1. I'm unsure if the phase2 authentication (MSCHAPV2) is saved correctly. When i edit the connection again, it is set to "None", but i when i edited the connection with wifi advanced configuration editor (app), it wás set to MSCHAPV2.
2. My Android 2.3.4 EVO 3d connects without any problems.
3. It gets stuck in a loop of scanning, connecting, disconnected. So the problem should be in authentication.
I've read a couple of threads outside of XDA, but none of their solutions work..
-Mo

yes, I've read them too, but indeed; no answer.
newbie's idea's didn't work as well. So I hope there will be an update with eduroam support?
will there be new updates, or is vegacomb a finished product?

There will be updates, but i don't know how soon..

I have found something.. will try it tomorrow at school and let you know if it worked..
you said the problem could be authentication.. and when I connect my htc hero to eduroam it asks for a password to safe referenties or something like that, but that doesnt appear on vegacomb..
I have installed the certificatie, and have set a referentie password.. and can choose for that certificate with eduroam.. so I have high hopes actually..

Hey, another user who needs EAP wifi right over here LOL
just let know if anyone fixs it. I will surely do it...

ok, no luck trying to use a downloaded certificate.
the connection is immediately down.
I don't know what to try now..

any updates?

I have the same problem :s any updates? Maybe another rom where it works?
