[Q] wifi on froyo anroid

hi.
mi phone hd2 anroid have problem with connecting to my home wifi.
it find my wifi comming ut secured with wpa/wpa2 but cannot connect.
i used many anroid roms like evo 4g 1.6 froyostone 3.3 /3.1.changed rom on wm.
my wm can connect to wifi without problem but when i boot to anroid it cant connect.

Did you pushed the modules to /system/lib/modules? Do it with root explorer.
The WiFi module is named bcm4329. You should get it with every single kernel you download.
If yes, try to update the firmware of your WiFi module.

I'm really asking myself how you got android to work finally
Read this

hehe i just ran the hspl3 and radio and put the anroid map into sd an ran.
it was easy but I do not understand the rest.
i have just problem with wifi rest of apps work

If you would read what I posted you would know what your problem is.

Make sure you disable wifi in WinMo before booting Android - did the trick for me when Wifi suddenly stopped working...

I have installed boot explorer and press / system / lib / modules.
installed bcm4329.ko firmwar fw_bcm4329_apsta.
turned off wifi on wm.
but i have same problem wifi can not connect
anyone have ideas what to do?
why I could connect wifi before and not now anymore? : S
plz help i love anroid

Market working on the vega 1.8 firmware

No need to install modaco R6 as it is not fully compatible with the latest vega firmware 1.8. Just follow these simple instructions and it will be working without any add-ons at all. CWM people will probably have to do it via the recovery.
Just download the attachment with the vega, go to settings, software tool, software update and point it to where you got the downloaded file. The vega will reboot and you will have a full working market. It will be the old version the first time you launch it but it will update itself. After that just install maps, youtube and everything else google. The only thing I'm having trouble installing is the official twitter app.
Hope that helps you guys at XDADEV

Thanks for this.
I have edited it and added the smalltaskbar, works great. Cheers

hi guys, i'm having issues trying to install market. i have tried this file and the one from o_g. with no luck. i can dl find and execute the file. when i comes to reboot i get the android out of the box symbol (which i'm assuming is bad ?)and have to power down the vega to get it to boot again, without market ? any ideas ? i have little knowledge of android (phone related only) and am a bit stumped.

You're welcome. There are some apps I have difficulty in finding in the market. I think it's due to the market trying to aquire location. I cannot install the official twitter app either. Trying to find solutions.

No, you don't necessarily need it but it doesn't hurt if you do. It has to be done via recovery if you do though, different process. What firmware have you got?

The android out of the box symbol is fine thats when it is flashing the files. there should be a progress bar that turns orange, after that happens the device should reboot its self. The only requirement is you are running stock v1.08.

I have noticed launcher pro does not show in the market had to install manually. i have tried changing the market files, but that does not work, so it might be as you say down to location, or i think it could be to do with are device name on the market, maybe advent does not want us to have those apps. I cant remember where the device name is. I will have to look further.

Thanks o_g, there is no progress bar? And if i leave the vega notfhing happens. Running stock 1.08. I'm wonering if i have been sent a second or a return. The battery was fully charged out of the box and the screen polythene had most definately been removed and replaced. Need to do some more reading methinks

Thanks for the assistance guys, my memory card was the culprit. I had swapped it for a bigger one, and not copied the contents. Sorted now tho now to get flash working properly

If I did this to my vega on the 25th January when it was delivered. what symptoms might present?
It seems to be working well bar "horizontal line gfx glitches" occasionally on the screen.

It works ok, you need to delete some of the apk's out of files/system/app. things like car home can be deleted and other little things. Like that it will not run out of space when you install it and it will not give you errors. This is just another option, that's all. Some more goodies will come along from modaco and xdadev like the new R7 rom addon that were made specifically for the 1.08 firmware.

thanks man, i just changed the 0 to a 1 at the end and it worked, then market updated the second time i opened it.
been trying to do this for over 2 wks

Dead or alive...?? 8-D

Hi!
After playing w/Floyo 2.2.1 and sd mounting(which does not work properly to me)
ive notice root explorer indicates no root access. Ive installed busybox installer and fetched 1.18 after which...:
-no xrecovery access at boot
-locked home screen but trying to unlock it says: Launcher...unexpectedly stopped etc etc..., DSP manager etc etc - neverending loop.
Any chance to bring the brick back to life ??
Please help !

i had this problem as well when i first started.
download PC Companion , click Support Zone, Software Update, Repair phone and follow the instructions.
it will delete all your data(of cos not sd card) and bring it back to android 2.1 default hope this helps.

Yes, I would..but PC Companion or Update Service/Engine state they cannot fetch any software (due to internet access problem), ive turned off router and windows 7 firewall and still nothing..

it has to be a version of busybox.
when install xrecovery, there is one u should always keep.
maybe when trying JiT, it need a new busybox,
but after that, put back xrecovery-busybox to system/bin.
it should work. (got same problem twice btw)

I have only one solution for you: reflash.. works always XDD
If you cant use the SE update service or PcCompanion, use flashtool from b1nary.. flash it any firmware, at least one that you could install xrecovery to restore or search for updates on SEUS..

Thanks guys!

[Q] VegaComb BETA 1.5.2 - no download from market

Hi,
I've installed on my POV mobii Tegra (aka Advent Vega) the VegaComb BETA 1.5.2.
Well, I know it's Beta and I've searched this forum but I can't find a similar post where someone has problems with the official android market. I can open the market and search, but when I try to download something I still get an error message, that the dowload failed. Any idea?
Thanks for your help in advance!

IIRC,i solved this by going into Settings and the Accounts & Sync option then remove your googlemail/gmail account.Once done then re-add the account and sync.

Sadly mine is now doing this as well. Cant get into my apps part when selecting to install. Tried removing gmail account and re adding it but no change.
Guess a reflash is coming up, dont want to move away from 3.0 though

Mine was doing this also but looks like it was an issue with the market. Works fine now.

I can't write a comment on any developer boards, so I'll do it here. For me, when I plug the Vega into the computer and try to connect the USB storage, I actually have to check 'turn off USB storage' rather than 'turn on'. This confused me at first but will hopefully be fixed in an update.
My WiFi doesn't connect unless I'm a maximum of 2/3m from my modem! Any ideas why? Help much appreciated.

WiFi error - "Unable to scan for networks" - multiple NAND roms

Hey all,
I'm usually pretty good at figuring these types of things out, but unfortunately I haven't been able to figure this one out yet.
Wifi works fine in WinMo 6.5 and WinPhone 7. I haven't tried SD version of Android, but I'd rather not go that route as I want to be able to use a fully functioning NAND version of Android.
I have done Task29/wipe data/cache/dalvik cache on many occasions, repartitioned, reinstalled WinMo 6.5 and then started over with MAGLDR (latest version), replaced wifi module libraries, but nothing has proven to work. Everything else is perfect, though.
Somebody has to have experienced this before? I couldn't find much in terms of a solution by searching.
Thanks!

What HD2 Radio version are you using?
What Android ROM are you using?
Have you made sure that it is a MAGLDR version you are trying to install, not the cLK version?
Why would you need to replace the WiFi module librarys as your ROM should work without error after installation?
A bit more info and we should be able to sort this one out!

Hey. Thanks for joining!
- Radio 2.15.50.14 and one of the older ones which was installed when I picked up this phone
- Roms:
NDT MIUI Froyo V6.2 currently.
Tried [CWR] BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA_GINGER 2.3.4-Sense.s V29 (12.Jun), CMYLXGO's Stock Desire HD(2) NAND ROM v1.1.17 and a few others i can't remember. All MAG versions.
I tried replacing the libs, because i've read that as part of a fix for related wifi problems from earlier this year.
Thanks!

You have the most common Radio 2.15.50.14 so that isn't the problem.
The fix is mainly for cLK versions so it could use the PPP interface but if you are using MAGLDR then that isn't needed - this alone could be your problem, I reccomend not installing this patch any more?!
I play with roms a lot and normally my errors are due to using a kernel which the rom wasn't developed for - or more recently, frequent drops to the internet.
When my drops happened, I had done nothing different but it seems that a change in CM7 source now addressed my routers security settings differently - I have no idea when it was added and I was lucky enough to find a firmware update for my router which solved the problem.
Out of interest, when you click on wifi, does it say error or does it try to connect and randomly drop? Error would indicate a kernel/radio/hardware problem and dropping or not connecting would possibly indicate router problem.
Possibly, one of the best places to start is the security settings of your router, disable all security and see if it will connect... if it does then apply security - I use WPA2 PSK TKIP and it now works for me!
NDT MIUI Froyo V6.2 & CMYLXGO's Stock Desire HD are quite old (In terms of development), BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA_GINGER 2.3.4-Sense.s V29 is new and updated frequently so i'm unsure why all would have the same problem?!?!.
You could also try my rom located in my signature "HardDroid2" as I have extensively tested this and have no problems (Not trying to punt my rom at all!).
If changing your router settings or no other roms work then it is beyond me as there are only a few combinations af possible hardware/software faults!
Hope this helps

Already installed Is the phone supposed to boot in Airplane mode enabled for the first boot?
Ok, unfortunately the same issue with WiFi. What happens when i turn wifi on is it takes about 15 seconds for the check to appear in the box, then it stays on for about 15 more seconds with no networks showing, then it turns off automatically. The same thing with every rom I've tried, unless I start messing with libs or conf files at which point I get "error" or it doesn't turn on at all.
Thanks!

Ummmm... NOPE!
I think your problem is with your radio rom. I would reccomend starting from scratch!
This is what I do and it works fine for me:
Prep SD Card: Format FAT32 and also create a 1GB Ext3 Partition (For apps2SD if needed)
Copy the rom update.zip to FAT32 partition of SD Card & Insert into phone.
Run HSPL3_PKG.exe and install HSPL 2.08
Flash Radio_Leo_2.15.50.14
Run Task 29 - wipe phone
Install MAGLDR 1.1.3
start device (Hold down power button until menu list appears) choose USB Flasher
Install Recovery 150MB System/5MB Cache (ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.0.0)
Start MAGLDR (Hold down power button until menu list appears) Select "AD Recovery"
Boot ClockworkMod and install update.zip from SD Card.
I'm not trying to teach you how to suck eggs... but maybe there is a little step you may of missed?!?!?

I would reccomend re-downloading the files, especially the radio rom as I have a feeling it may be corrupted - don't know why it would work on WP7 though??
Use the HSPL3_PKG.exe to install HSLP 2.08 as it is regarded as the best.
I use Loader 2.10 KSubedi (MAGLDR 1.1.3 Debranded) just for asthetic reasons.
We will get there!!! lol

Same deal, unfortunately. I've noticed that the mac address is "unavailable" at all times, including the 10 secs the wifi is actually on (according to the switch)

Did you re-download the radio from here?: http://www.multiupload.com/QP0IWGY42F
I don't understand why your wifi works under wm6.5 (which installs during flashing rom) & WP7 (which runs the same way as android nand) but not under android... I would of classed it as a corrupted file and im completely at a loss!!!!
It can't be a hardware fault and there isn't any differences in earlier/later versions of the HD2's wifi module!!!
OK, I admit it.... I'm stumped!

If you install the latest rom and then task 29, you still have the radio version which installed with the rom as task 29 doesn't touch that section!
I remember a couple of years ago when I changed the wifi module on a PSP that it no longer held a mac address when using original Sony firmware... has your device been in for repair?
Just a thought really, i'm grabbing at straws since it really doesn't make sense to me!

I'm not sure about its history as I bought it used. Tomorrow is another day with more opportunities to resolve this issue.

Nothing changed by me installing a stock T-mobile WinMo 6.5 then going through the process of converting to NAND android. I found out that I'm not able to save a manual Wi-Fi network entry. Maybe this is a clue for the problem?
Thanks!

Well looking into the kernel, it seems that it will create a custom MAC address for each device to get past the 00:11:22:33:44:55 issue (I don't know what variables it would use to create this but possibly imei???)
There are no really adjustable settings in wpa_supplicant.conf which would help (As far as I can see)
Since you aren't showing a MAC address, it would indicate a problem with your hardware (as no other device has this problem) But why Windows roms would still work is beyond me and the only change in hardware revisions over the life of the HD2 has been to the lcd screen and not the radio hardware.
I have searched and tried to find more information on this but i'm unable to find a conclusive answer or solution
Here is a thought: Download the files which I use from here: http://www.andbuddy.com/files/FOBBu1308083933.html

I'm suspecting that the actual wifi related hardware is damaged somewhere, maybe the coaxial cable, at least in my phone.
