My phone lost BT/Wifi after ROM install - Touch HD General

After installing OliSPL, new radio and custom rom (Energy or BlackStone) I lost all wifi connectivity (cant detect any wifi networks, unsecured or secured) and BT can't detect any devices either.
I tried going back to Original HTC Rom with no luck, the problem still remains.
Can anyone please help me figure out what the problem is. If you need any other info please ask as I have no idea what to include here.
Thank you!

if the only problems are wi-fi and bluetooth and those things are not explicitly declared as bugs in your rom (don't bother, they're not), then it is the radio rom, that causes these problems. have you performed at least one or two hard resets after flashing? did you restore any kind of backup afterwards?
have you tried another radio version? what is your current radio?

Radio seems to randomly go out without notification

hi all,
I apologize if this has been brought up before, but I clicked the "corrupted radio" link in the Beginner's thread, and it appears that the thread no longer exists
My Tytn has been acting up lately, it seems to me that the radio is randomly going out; except when the radio isn't working, I have no idea, because everything appears to be normal (the 3G icon is showing, and the Bars are there) until I try to make a call or text someone, then it will say "Operation Failed"
usually disabling and re-enabling the Phone option in the Comm Manager will temporarily fix the problem, but it's only a matter of time before the Radio goes down again.
I've tried flashing my phone with 3 different ROMs, with no luck. I get the same problem every time. So I am kinda worried that it's a hardware issue.
If anyone can provide some help on this matter, i'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
edit: just in case this helps, i'm currently using the ROM version 2.15.502.3
Not sure who your carrier is or your radio version? You may want to flash another radio version and / or a cooked rom. MAKE sure you have hardspl to do the above.
I am now using a shipped WM6 rom for AT&T, version 3.62.502.3
my radio version is 1.54.07.00
still having the same issue
what cooked rom would you recommend?
Hi, here is a recent thread asking that question...post #14 would be good wm6.0 roms (the wm6.1 are still buggy):

Radio Version?
What Radio version are you using?
Rom: m-amine
Radio: 1.59.42.15
try flashing RADIO rom 1.59.42.23 and make a hardrest after each ROM flashing.
whats change when i install a new radio?
and how i can install only the radio?
I generally install the rom with radio inside, how to install only the radio?
Ok i install the radio .23 but nothing bt and wifi doenst work
changing Touch Cruise motherboard
Bonjour,
unfortunately I had the same problem and others like camera weird colors pictures etc.
And after radio roms testing hard reset and so and so, I had to give my telephone to the repair service (under garantee), they changed the motherboard and now it's OK.
I'am affraid your phone has the same problem if the radio rom flashing does not resolve your problem.

Do I have a corrupt radio or bad flash?

I have been running a version of pays build since last feb.
lately a few things stated to get buggy, alarms, notifications and internet connection stability.
It would attempt to connect id see the 3G turn to an H for a few sec and it would go away and never show up again until I did a reset.
I dealt with everything until the internet connection became too unstable.
At 1st I just needed to rest the phone once in a while, to a few times, and then the last draw was when it took over 15 resets to get it to connect to internet.
I have reflashed my phone and the internet connection seems to be doing the same thing again.
So this has me thinking it’s physically a bad radio or the software for the radio is corrupt. Since flashing the phone to most new roms does not change the radio.
My phone is a herm200
The radio I have been using for ever that worked for me is 1.48.00.10
my phone is running PDACornerPro.V27
I have the proxy disabled
Do you flash a stock rom 1st then the other roms, especially BS roms as this may help the unstable issues.
I would suggest doing some research on what radio rom works well in your area as you may need to upgrade BUT I wouldn't start flashing radios to test as they are the cause of most permanent bricks if things go wrong. If you do need to flash a new radio I'd suggest the sd card method, I'm assuming you have Hard SPL V7 installed, and make sure you use a 2Gb or less card formatted FAT32.
I would also suggest doing a check for bad blocks before flashing the radio as it may be that too.
Radio rom flashing is REALLY the last thing you do....
Hope this helps,
Cheers...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so i should flash the official HTC rom or a lite rom with nothing added and then the cooked rom?
bad blocks? how do check for those.
thanks
Do a search for bad blocks 1st, connect to mtty and type in info 8. if you have bad blocks type task 2a.
There may be "bad blocks" as the carrier sometimes brand the phones. These can't be fixed.
Find a Stock rom, most people use AT&T, either find the version that has had the radio removed or remove it yourself with a little surgery using a program called ROM Koch. It allows you to break the ROM into .nb files eg. os.nb, radio.nb...
This means you can then put the ROM back the way you like... I'd suggest to put back everything but the radio and keep the cooked "stock" rom. It is still a stock rom but you don't have the inconvenience, or potential bricking, of your Hermes to worry about. Then install the Rom of your choice...
Don't use a lite rom as they have been cooked and altered.
Cheers...
so far no luck.
i still get spotty connections. if it connects i am good for a while if not i have to reset the phone and hope for the best. it could take many resets.
1st i flashed this
official_AT&T_WM6_striped
then i flashed this
V15_M2D_Plain_3G
I updated the radio
from
HERM_Radinly_1.48.00.10
to
HERM_Radinly_1.56.70.11
I uese this to configure my wap settings
cingular_wap.wpbear_Proxy_Folders.cab
I even swaped my girlfriends sim with my sim to see if it was an accout
or sim problem.
the problem still stays with my phone.
Now i am thinking this could be a hardware problem.
can a 3rd party battery cause odd side effects like this.
Thank you for your help ultramag69.
Alot of your tips helped me get a stable rom flashed to my cell.
I the end i think the cab file i used to configure my att internet setting caused the network problems.
I now manualy configured it and have had a perfect run so far.
i also reflashed every thing starting with a att rom.
I looked at the media net and mms setting and used those after i flashed
V15_M2D_Plain_3G.
setting on the att rom
TCP/IP and Servers
select-> Use server-assigned IP address
setting used on config cab. I think using the ip address caused me the problems.
server ip
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Update phone is acting twitchy again with its internet connection.
Everything is the same as above.
The phone worked great this weekend and now it has yet to keep a stable internet connection.
Now I am really thinking it hardware problem.
Something gets loose or loses tolerance maybe heat or some thing like that causes the module that controls the network connection to fail.
Anyone have any guesses or tests?
Maybe att is messing with my device...

WiFi Problems since upgrading to 1.56

I know other people are struggling with Wifi. It does not even turn on.
I have tried several roms and different radios but wifi just will not turn on.
It used to when I was using the original SPL but since I upgraded to SPL 1.54 so I could use the newer 1.56 roms, wifi has not worked.
I have also tried HardSPL from Olinex but same thing.
Does anybody know if it is just the older Touch HDs are affected or is it just a random few?
More importantly, doe anybody know a fix for this?
Thank you.
CJ
Moved out of dev!
First you need to find out if you have an issue with your device.
Re install stock SPL, then your stock rom.
Then check your wifi.
I have not read of people having issues with wifi and can not work out why SPL would effect that.
OK. Here is my story. I bought HTC Touch HD from ebay (Orange one). Used USPL to upgrade ROM. Didn't do anything (it was SIM locked, I was using turbosim). It worked perfectly. Can't understand why that happened, but wi-fi stopped working 2 days ago. Simptoms, when you try to turn wi-fi on, it's just going round and nothing. The only unusual thing I did was, I put SIM card from another provider for a couple of minutes.
Steps to solve this problem:
1. Unlocked SIM, CID, Security with olipro's tool . Thanks to Olipro. Now it is SIM, CID, Security unlocked. Wi-fi did't work.
2. Installed HardSpl 1.56Olinex and WM 6.5. Everything was working like it should be (GPS, Bluetooth, GSM, GPRS, Edge and etc). Wi-Fi didn't work.
3. Restored original SPL 1.14 and Orange ROM. Everything is working. Wi-fi doesn't work.
Opened HTC Touch HD service manual. Read from the begging to the end. The below are some extractions from that book:
---------------------------------------------------------
13.Wireless connection (WLAN/BT) not functioning
(1) Make sure the wireless environment is OK before connecting to WLAN.
(2) Make sure the wireless connection setting has properly set.
(3) Make a life connection with Internet or another device.
(4) Try to re-flash the ROM code. ----->
(5) Try with another main board if necessary
(6) Once the defective part has been identified, verify the defective part again whether the symptom could be
duplicated with another unit.
-------------------------------------------------------------
L1. 6. Memory card for ROM code re-flash ( must be encoded by HTC) HTC design
--------------------------------------------------------------
So, "try to reflash the ROM code" is the interesting one. But were to get that memory card for Rom code reflash.
Wi-fi is a real pain for owners of the HTC devices, just search the web. But it looks like, something has just stuck in my device, and I just need some special program or tool to change the status of my wireless card from from "off" to "on", so Windows Mobile could see it. Can anybody help us.
I had a problem when going to 1.56...and had the wrong SPL. Used CrackWhore's guide, and got 1.56 working. Then later found out that Wifi wasn't working and kept defaulting to airplane mode. I went back to CrackWhore's guided and followed it again, and this time the Wifi is fine and after two days it seems everything is working. You might try that as the SPL may be wrong.

htc touch hd problem with wifi

hello guys, I have a HTC Touch HD and I have a problem with wifi networks .. I flashed the 'hardspl 1:56 el' axlor 6.1 as in the guide, but I'm not the most research of networks (not see any network) I tried to put all the radios, but nothing ... not even manually entering the keys wpa or freeing up the network I can not connect ... I tried to restore everything, but the problem persists ... can anyone give me a hand?
i have the same issue !!!!!! any one help please
My wifi connects to networks but the phone doesn`t browse the internet.I`m sure it has something to do with some setings but I don`t know what.Can anyone help?
without further information it is impossible to help you. what kind of network is it, how is it encrypted? what rom/radio rom are you running? is it your private network? do you have the key for it? what are your settings that you suspect of making it not work for you?
It`s a student public network on my faculty.It`s open for everyone to use.And they use it without any "encription" or password.
Bought my phone used.I guess it was all set to work, but I installed some rubish I couldn`t delete...rest of it you can predict.
I returned my phone to factory setings, and since then wifi doesn`t work.Everything else works.
OS 5.2.21855(21855.5.0.85)
manila version 2.5.19211619.0
Radio version 1.09.25.14
Thank you very much in advance!
ok, that is something to work with. your rom is not a shipped one, and from the version number, i can't tell, who cooked it and how old it is. however, it might be a common bug of that rom that wi-fi doesn't work properly. also, your radio is fairly uncommon, most people these days use the latest radio 1.17.29, which can be found on the forum. remember to perform a hard reset after flashing another rom or radio rom. in general, one can assume, that, once you flashed a shipped rom and the latest radio, the software on the phone is as it should be, and if wi-fi doesn't work then, it might actually be physically broken.
