The issue occurs about 9 times out of 10. My wifi functions properly. Whenever I edit my wireless settings or turn the wifi off, therefore telling the phone to connect back to edge, the phone will lock up completely.
Unlocked HD2 on AT&T, running ChuckyDroid and Bangsters 1.3b
Steps I've taken to replicate the issue:
Turn on wifi or airplane mode (causing Edge to disconnect)
Turn wifi or airplane mode off (causing Edge to attempt a reconnect)
OR
Edit APN/check the 2g only box, causing a disconnect/reconnect of edge
Result:
Complete lockup, no functioning buttons or screen (cant even turn the phone's screen off). The only way to rectify this is by removing the battery.

I had freezing issues with Bangsters PPP build too, and I just switched to mccm SE 1.0 build (stable)
You can try first disabling all data connections on WinMo prior to booting Android like some people have suggested and see if this helps you.

can you link me to that android build? bangsters is the first build I've found with MMS working...
I switched my phone to airplane mode on windows mobile, pre-boot. it seems to have worked, hopefully its not a temporary fix.

A few people have reported this to be working people well for PPP builds. If not try mccm, but remember to change the APN settings to get MMS working.
You need to use a RMNET build (or switch to rmnet support) until PPP hard freeze issues are fixed.

I had the exact same problems with the cell data. You need to use rmnet since ppp builds are far.to unstable for normal use.

Man that really blows. I very much like this build so far, the freezing on data reconnect is very strange. I also experience the drop of data connection from time to time, and the only way to get it to come back on is to reboot (so far as I can tell at this point)
There is something of note I forgot...
At first when I tried shubcraft the cell data was stable most of the.time and didn't cause lockups on reconnects. It was a few days later it suddenly turned and would lockup after only 1 or 2 minutes uptime.
Usually the ppp builds I used where just unstable in general with 2 or 3 lockups a day.
Shubcraft basically had an aneurism.

+1 had the exact same thing happen to me...forced me to switch to the rmnet version
im using shubcraft, it locked up switching from wifi to data, even going from airplane mode back to data. going in and out of apn settings would lock up also. after ive change kernel it seems to disappear. what radio are you guys using. i had unstable data connection on 2.12.50 now im using 2.10.50.26 data is stable for a week now.
give this kernel a shot, might help might not. its from huanyu

I had the exact same problem with darkstone froyo sense!! it is due to unstable PPP drivers. But I liked PPP because of the speed and didn't want to give up on it.
And this build solved my problem. Its built from darkstone froyo sense so its very similar but has some added features and stable PPP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773790
I use the SE 1.0 version. it is rmnet but you can switch it to PPP by changing the startup.txt file. You just need to add a command to the cmdline to start it into PPP.
Some other things you can try are.
Put the phone in Airplane mode in WinMO before booting Android.
use RMNET version. slow but stable.

I Had major issues with the latest builds because of the PPP addon, the data won't work, or start.
After getting tired of running away from the problem using RMNET, I Decided to change my configuration,
This is the setup I Had:
HD2 GSM (Not TMOUS)
Chuky's GTX lite Rom for HD2
2.12 Radio
Andriod Roms whom I Had trouble with:
ShubCRAFT 1.4d
Mattec Leo+Froyo with sense 1.6-1.6b
then I Changed the setup to:
Cruzer Rom, sense 2.13
Radio 2.11 - 20
Andriod build:
Mattec Leo+Froyo with sense 1.6-1.6b
The first time I Booted I Had no connection what so ever, the second time I Got connectiviy but the symbol doesn't show the u/d status, and it still doesn't, but it does work, which is better IMO.
That's all, just wanted to share my solution to this annoying problem which atleast I Couldn't get rid off.
Sadly thou, I Only get a score of 1051 on Quadrant, don't know why, but the phone runs preety much fast, even with Live Wallpapers.
Cya
just want to ask, did the data connection works on all apps and browser?
i'm using 1.6b but found the data only work on browser but not work on others apps, even whether, facebook, market, news
can you works on all? and how about wifi? i tried another zImange or Rom can make the data works all fine but wifi error.
For me... I used Chucky Tabtastic and latest PPP_Root1.6b rom from mattc and it workded straight away.
As you said, the signal icon remains static does not show any activity but the connectivity works well.
I did not go through all the troubles you have
My fix for ppp was similar. I switched from a 2.12 radio to the 2.10 radio in my sign. Things are working MUCH better.

I can confirm ppp work in radio 2.10.50.28_2 for me in all apps
and it is stable so far (unless you toggle wifi on/off )

yeah.. that's a really big "unless" for me. I don't want to have to yank out the battery and reboot every time I want to use Wifi.
I just wanted to let you guys know that if you have a lot of crashes and/or problems with PPP data, you might try to change your Radio to one of the latest versions.
I'm curently using the energyrom(posted on this forum) and I always used the 2.07.50
Radio rom. With this Radio, I had a lot of problems with the Mattc build and the froyostone build concerning PPP data. I sometimes didn't saw the arrows, the phone froze,bad reception etc...etc...
After playing with the latest Radio, all my problems are gone. The 3G/HSDPA works as it should be. So for the folks who are still using RMNET like I used too, it might be worth changing your Radio to see if it fixes anything.
Hopefully it works for some people, but it doesn't for me.
I've always used 2.12 radio but PPP just does not work at all.
I'm still trying to work out exactly what prevents some people from using PPP.
I also had to use APN backup to configure my APN settings properly. Before that, it would'nt work for me either.
Try 2.10.50_26. Ppp works for me

yeah changing the radio fixed alot of my bigs
+1 for radio 2.10. I tried 2.12 and got freezes with PPP. Going to the radio below and PPP acts just like RMNet. I get the occasional 10-15 second freeze when recovering in WiFi, but I never get that in 3G/H mode.
PPP never work for me, tried all available radios for TMOUS, I don't get service at all.
+1 for 2.10.50.26 never had a problem with PPP, and I've used them all.
I use my ROMs clubbed with 2.10.50.26 as Radio and mattc/shub/hyper all work great PPP/RMNET/Wifi/Bluetooth
I guess it depends on what core files are being used on WM side...i use 2.14 base which came with the same radio as mentioned above and has best compatibility with the core files.
Yesterday, I got 1% hr standby with Push On and Bluetooth headset connected and few SMS....thats very much comparable to WM itself...however, sometimes it suddenly drains and I suspect some bg prog for that ...
Just adding a different approach to the story... Could the carrier have something to do with this??
I don't think the Radio version has anything to do with the hard freezes.. As I've tried every radio version and winmo compatible roms for android builds and still, I would get a hard freeze each and everytime.. It would work for a period of time, but once it disconnects and try to reconnect, it freezes.. Sometimes it would just freeze as soon as you boot Android.. And that only happens when I input the right APN settings for my internet plan.. Or when it starts accepting data's.. So I think it's got something to do with the Carrier, APN and Proxy settings.. Either you have to have the right internet settings for the Android phones/plan, or it would freeze your phone.. Anyway, that's just what I think.. RMNET on the other hand is rock solid! It doesn't matter whether you put a Proxy or not, it would connect just fine without freezing.. Just my observation..
For me only rmnet work, ppp never worked. I am in Switzerland by Sunrise. Is there someone being by Sunrise Switzerland and having ppp working?
I am running hd2 mattc 1.6b.
for those with working PPP, sorry to say, it's only a matter of time for yours to crash...your lucky. There is still an issue with PPP in the latest kernel's. They are working on a fix. Hopefully you will still be lucky and your PPP build is still working when they update the kernel with a fix. For others with the hard freeze's. Your not alone, it's not your fault or radio, it's an error in the kernel. I don't take credit for this info, read the IRC channel and see for yourself. Straight from Letema & gauner1986- the devs who made PPP work in the first place on our HD2's.

Thank you for the info. I was getting crazy.. I had the Matt 1.7 ppp working for 2 days no problem at all. But after 2 days I'm having intermittent hard freeze when I start the apn. ..
I was going to try with a 2.10. Radio.. but after your post I will kelp 2.12 radio and move to rmnet
Thanks for sharing
I'm on 3 in Australia
In my case both PPP and RMNET are working for normal Internet, but I cannot access Plane 3 on PPP, but I can access with RMNET. Anyone has the same issue on 3 in other countries? or perhaps any solution on how to enable Planet 3 on PPP?

Its not your router. Its kernel related. For some reason alot off people are having wifi troubles with newer kernels. I also have dlink and wifi is alwaysjacked up. It was fine with older kernels.

Are you having this problem on cm6 builds, or just sense builds?
If you use search tool u'll find the proper tool that fixes this issue...
Please use search option before posting.
Thanks
Er.. what are ya talking about there is yet to be any fix for the ppp problem - unless i'm mistaken ?
With the newest kernels, and CM6 (hyperdroid ultimate) my data connection freezes INSANELY often. Really sucks.
in my opinion usability was generally better when i first started slapping android onto my HD2 several months ago.. I've gone through so many kernels i can barely remember which ones worked now..
really hoping for some gingerbread action statistico or if WP7 actually runs well i'd give up android for general usability..
I am still looking for a kernel + build combo for a stable ppp connection. the ppp disconnection drives me crazy~

Hi,
since some time, I am experiencing problems with my data connection. I dont really now, why but those persist through changes of AndroidOS, Radio and WM-ROM.
The Facts: HD2 european version, Operator: O2 Germany
The Problem in detail: When I am at home, I want to use my WLAN connection but some times, it doesnt connect to it. I have to manually go into the menu and reset my wlan-connection, so it works. Much more annoying is the fact, that when I am not at home (and WLAN is out of range), the phone often doesnt connect HSPA/3G/GSM/whatever and programms like maps, opera etc just claim to not having a data connection ready, though there are 2 to 4 bars. Only way to solve this -> go to flight mode, thet deactivate flight mode OR deactivate data connection, then reacivate it. Either way its annoing and mails won't be downloaded in this time, too.
My first setups, when I didnt have this problem where with WM OZDroid ROM, 2.12.50.XX Radio and many different Androidbuilts (no working compass / lightsensor etc - you know for sure ) Then I got to MDJ-Roms which I really liked and I never used another since those times. Still no Problems.
Then, by some time, I installed a new MDJ ROM - Mdeejay_FroYo_Sense_v._1.1_Clean_R75. This Rom needet to have PIN-auth disabled in Windows or it hung up in LOOP ( ). Sadly I installed a new WM-ROM and radio at the same time (I know, never change multiple parts at once... ugh!). Those where VBNDroid-Reloaded2-21913-Oct08 and Radio 2.15.50.14.
Since that time, I have this strange connection problem. I allready changed back to an oZDroid version and tried Radio 2.12 and 2.15. As Android ROM, i used MDJ eVo Sense Revolution 1.8 and now Mdeejay_FroYo_Revolution_v._1.6_S3. - Still the same problems.
I allready had the idea to reactivate PIN-auth but this option doesnt exist in my actual WM-OzDroid ROM.
Is there anyone experiencing the same problems or able to give me a hint in this case? I'am really not one of those persons "gimmie a new OS and I kill you if it doesnt work" - I know Android is work-in-progress but with all those superb fixes in past (lightsensor, compass etc) i cannot believe that a basic part like internet connection isnt working properly.
Thanks a lot for helping me out,
cmoe
RMNET
I think you'll find plenty of others who have had the same problem and some have had success with changing builds, kernels etc. There's plenty of stuff out there if you search on it.
I used to have data problems but switched to RMNET rather than PPP. You need to use a build that allows you to change this though and luckily for me, Bangsters 1.5 is such a build. It's not a sense build.
RMNET gets a bad press for it's speed, but to be honest it is perfectly ok for browsing the web. I leave all my downloading and updating till I'm on WiFi at home.
Regards your wifi issue, I have 'power control' widget on my homescreen and just switch WiFi off and on. Much easier than going into settings.

This might sound a bit noobish, but I was wondering if someone can recommend an android ROM which provides a stable data connection with the windows stock ROM WWE 3.14 (Radio 2.15.40) with SPL (not HSPL)
I'm currently using the mdeejay froyo sense (v2.4). The pain for me is that the 3G connection rarely works, even in areas with full bars, and the roamin data connection tends to drop out a fair bit as well despite full bars. I've tried rebooting, and that normally works but it is real pain to have to reboot on so many occasions (not to mention slow). I tried switchin to airplane mode and then switching the mobile network on again, but that doesn't seem to work.
Hi Guys I have a little a problem with all ROM that I tested (cotulla and Prj Clean and one another that I don't remember) and I don't found a way to solve it.
My data connection is unstable... Sometime work very good but in a few minute doesn't work even if the network coverage is high. When doesn't work I seen on display that only the "transmit arrow" below the "H or 3g" blink. Tha connection sometime restore it functionality.
With windows mobile everything work good.
I have:
HSPL 2.08
Radio 2.15.50.14 But I try also with other Radio
Vodafone ITA
Any advice?
thanks, I'm getting crazy

I wouldn't be so quick to say that RMNET is perfect as with me I find that it drops the connection a lot and often will not resolve a connection!
I haven't tried PPP since my last SD build so I can't tell if it's still as bad but it was quite bad back then.

Any advice? This morning I tried MDJ_FroYo_Revolution_v._2.3 data was working for 5 hours and then drop down... and now nothing or very very slow....
I have the same problem too using Hyperdroid and MDJ Gingerbread. It works fine for a day and the next day in the afternoon the data would be lost. I mean no data whatsoever, not data drops like in SD builds. I can't see any G/E/3G/H symbol.

Yeah that's been my experience too. In fact RMNET caused me to have so many screen freezes I had to revert back to PPP as the lesser of two evils. I guess this is the penalty for running Android on a non-native device I never experienced flawless data yet on any bulid be it SD, RAM whatever.

It's the only reason why I'm thinking about moving to a Nexus S - the data drops on this device are just not fun! I love my HD2 though, so I'll not sell it.
This problem has been here since day 1 with Android - but I'm not complaining as i haven't done any work with this, so I'll put up with what I'm given by the devs!
