[q] wifi help! - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

So i recently bought a used hd2 that was already flashed to the NexusHD gingerbread 2.3 android, everything works great on the phone, the problem is that WIFI is not working at all. it shows scanning and it doesn't display any results, i tried searching for my home network and also the wifi at starbucks and it doesn't show up with any results. when i tried manually entering a network, the wifi just continues to scan but still no results. i don't have a data plan and so far i tried flashing it to different android builds and also back to winmo 6.5 and still has the same problem. i am a noob and so far without wifi i cant sync my contacts or access market =/ please help, thanks

You've flashed other ROM's and you still have the same problem? Thats really weird. Maybe that's the reason they sold it?

[Q] HTC data connection freezing.

Hello all,
Not sure if anyone else is having this problem.
First of all, better to mention what my Aria is running on:
Stock ROM unrooted. Updated to Froyo from HTC via FOTA. I'm not located in the US therefore my phone isn't under AT&T which many here are. My ROM is strictly HTC's Asia's ROM.
Now I don't have much in a way of problems with my phone, its just odd to me that every once in a while (around once every week or so) I need to reboot my phone. This is because for some strange reason, my phone won't connect to the data network (3G) or it shows that it is connected but no data activity (even after I've instructed the phone to sync all information, i.e. weather, emails, etc). I've tried switching on/off the data network connection and also have tried switching between airplane modes on/off (in hopes to reset something) but nothing works.
I'm not sure if this is an inherent problem to the Aria's 2.2 update or if there is something wrong with my carrier, however the problem is ALWAYS FIXED right after a fresh reboot.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Phone information. Set preferred network.
Try switching between the different options.

Thanks for the hint thinkhope. I'll try your suggestion. May I ask what you think the problem may be?
Update: I tried it for a couple of days and I still get the same problem. I tried switching between preferred networks but the problem persists. Quick reboot and once again, fixed.
I also have this same problem, stock/custom ROM no matter which ROM the problem is still there, up to a point that made me wanna smash my phone on the ground. I tried to use my SIM card on my wife's SGS and seems like no such problems faced. Is this a common problem for HTC phones?

[Q] Weird WiFi Issue Using Custom ROM?

So just picked up a MyTouch 4g and so far I love it! Glad I switched from being a Windows Mobile user to a die hard Android now! Anyhow so the first thing I did when I got home was of course root it and found a custom ROM for it. I went and got [ROM][07/04/11] Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid [1.27.0] and finally got it flashed after some tinkering. Thank god I used linux before! So the phone seems to work fine, but today I noticed some annoying issues with it. I upgraded the sd card to 16gb from 8gb and had to reloaded a few of my games, no biggie, everything works now. But the WiFi is starting to piss me off. At work the wifi shouldn't be an issue, it is slow, but works. The phone just seems to keep dropping connection for no reason, then says emergency calls only and then picks back up the WiFi, etc. Does this while WiFi calling is enabled, now when I disable that, the WiFi still has issues like it won't keep a good signal. Hell I am sitting beside the router and still the signal goes up and down. I know the wifi works because I am using it thru my laptop to type this atm (using ubuntu 11.04 of course!) I have done some searching thru out the forums and noticed some others complaining about the same issue. I am asking because didn't know if this was ROM related, or maybe needed a different radio like my HTC tilt 2 used when I had it? Any ideas or maybe point me in the general direction?

Is possible to have this WiFi issue?

Hi!
Well, I have a very weird issue with custom ROMs and WiFi.
The history begins last sunday. I was using GingerDX wich is really great, but I had some problems with it, the most important was not being able to install apps in my SD card.
So, I switched to GingerXperia V22, this is a cool ROM too but I really don't like that my music lags when I turn my screen on. Also, the SE default dialer and Infinity view are bad and slow, but I didn't have the problem with WiFi, until I switched to XGin 6.2
Everything worked OK except for this:

I just realized a terrible and very weird error with this ROM:
I couldn't connect to The WiFi of my mate's office (where Im currently working). But the weirdest thing was the modem worked fine before trying to connect with my Xperia, but after turning the WiFi on, the modem just got busted and didn't work anymore!! So, no internet in the office computers, neither in my iPod, in my mate's smartphone, etc.! It was necessary to turn the modem off and then turning it on, and turning my X8's wifi off to make the modem working properly again.
Weird, huh?
I reflashed, and the error happened again.
So, I flashed back to the ROM I was using before (GingerXperia V22), and now the WiFi is working fine!
Anyone else with that same error or Im the only crazy around here?

I tried kuyaDROID and the same error happened.
I also did a full wipe... And nothing, the WiFi error remains on those two ROMs. So, Im currently using GingerXperia.
So, the question is: Is this really possible? And, is there any solution?
There may be some bug that's overloading it. Also was it the modem or the router? Cuz if it's wifi I would guess its the router but you said modem? I'd just use a different rom that works.

Guess is the router, where the wired networks are connected, it also gives the wireless signal.
As I said, Im sticking with GingerXperia, wich is not causing the error and Im connecting to WiFi with no problems. But I have personal problems with infinity view, SE's dialer and music lagging.
If is about a overloading bug, how could I fix it?
Im using stock kernel, btw.
To tell you the truth, I'm not actually that smart in this, but by overloading I meant that it might be trying to use too much data or something along that line, did it work fine over 3g?
Sent from my LG-VM670 using XDA App
Yeah, I didn't have any problems with 3G.
Don't really have any idea then, I've had problems with mange one device at a time but not fully crashing. Last advice would be that maybe the router has a limit to the number of connected devices it can have and your phone puts it over, try disconnecting one device then connect your phone

I already tried that, and the problem persists.
But this is a good excuse to read and learn eve more, it is a totally new problem for me hehe.
Thanks anyway, for giving suggestions.
I guess I'd try posting in your phones thread and the rom's also, might get better insight into the problem

To further assist you may I ask some questions;
1. What kernel are you using?
2. Have you tried connecting in other Access Point aside from the previous AP you are connecting with?
3. If using custom kernel did you delete all the modules in system/lib/modules?

1. Im in stock kernel.
2. Nope, I didn't try it. I don't have internet in home, but I'd try in my girl's house.
3. same answer than 1.
Thanks for being interested in this curious case.
If your using stock kernel then you shouldn't have to encounter those issues as most roms esp kuyadroid as you mentioned earlier is made for stock rom. I suggest trying into public wifi access and see if you could be able to connect. You have to have two or more access point to test with as router might have different configs than your girls setup.

No internet on 3G

Im using MikG 3.0 and can only use internet with wifi or 4g. I do get the error message to turn on mobile network (which is checked). What is my next step? Thank all
Never had any trouble like that with MikG try reflashing.
Did you update your Profile and PRL after flashing? Try that, if not, try reflashing the rom. I've never had that problem on any rom.
no internet on3g
Hello Brentkhack, I'm on a desire HD but have had the same issue with 3g as you. It started working for me by simply switching the data toggle off and on again. I know u may have already tried this but after googling for over an hour I'd found nothing else to help me so thought I should post, Hope it works for u too.
Thanks, by turning the mobile data off then on fixed the problems.

put radio 5.51T.09.29a_22.32.50.10U in ROM, flash ROM, after done do hard reset from about screen.
run Connection setup, confirm settings.
go to Settings - Mobile network and add APN data manually (not important for WiFi but for data and MMS)
restart device (soft)
secure wifi and compas
I have the same things concerning the secure wifi. Almost everything works.
Just one thing puzzles me. It is when i use a compas application, it stands still, like it can't find north. It will not rotate. The gps does work. Positioning on a map works. I installed an app called level and this works very fine. No troubles there.
Anyone experiancing the same kind of troubles?
Got a HD2 (T8585) on OS 7.10.8107.79 and radio 5.51T.09.29a_22_32_50_10U
Firmware is 2250.21.51007.401
Phone info says after the last update that it is a htc hd7 t9292.
