[Q] Home WiFi not listed - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

My home WiFi router SSID has stopped being listed on my HD2. It has been working normally for 4 months. I can't think of one particular change I have made to my device that preceded this problem.
I have a Virgin Superhub which doesn't need to be in a "pairing" mode to accept connections. I have soft reset my HD2 and restarted the router without change. My laptop sees the SSID normally.
I am using YUKI's ROM.
Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Try different rom that one seems to have alot of odd problems

once i manualy changed the boadcast channel of my router and my hd2 couldn`t see the router either.

Hard Reset
May be a silly question...but...does the Hard Reset from within WP7 settings pages work OK with magldr?

yes, it will only reset wp7 to factory default. will not erase magldr.

Thanks
G4: I'll try a hard reset first and maybe a Green Mango ROM next.
Hyellow: Thanks for the answer.

Hard reset did it, but now flashed XBMOD-YUKI rom which is ace.

How to *really* hard reset Universal to factory condition

With all this talk about WM5 devices not really resetting everything after a hard reset, and my device being dead and not recovering after a hard reset makes me think, there must be an alternate way to really hard reset a device back to factory condition.
I tried a lot of combinations of presses to no end. The only thing I am suspicious about but did not play with is a red/white round sticker (which looks like it is hiding a button) under the battery (upper left corner).
Anyone know what that is, or is there a way to do a harder reset? Taking the battery out for a few days did not help either.
Because flash memory actually needs erasing rather than just resetting I doubt it is possible to clear it with a simple button press. It may be you can do a normal hard reset and hold down a button to bypass loading data from the flash then format it. But I've no idea really.

Re-flash the ROM?
uuummm some where in this forum i read that if you have wm2005 and go to boot loader mode you get an option over there to clear the cache or memory something like that, and that would give you a clean installation.....
haven't tried it though.....and i doubt i would get such an option in wm2003se, also i have a similar problem i did a complete flash reinstallation of rom to my device and after the installation i opened windows media player (wasnt the first thing i opened, but didnt copy any files)and guess what....i had a song available over there..... which i could actually play and it did....i checked the location of the file and it was somewhere in my device or documents dont quite remember i did a hard reset again and same issue....
after that i have'nt tried anything the rom is same i just deleted the folder manually but i would also like to know how to TOTALLLLLLY ERASE ALL DATA from the device and clean install everything
regards
on the XDA II and WM5 you hold down the buttons to resent stage then i gives you three options. One of these I am sure clears the phone
I hard reset my Universal several times (well I think I did at least)
Press the soft reset plus the two "-" buttons and you will have a white screen asking if you want to put back your HTC back factory default
Unfortunately that standard hard reset, doesn't do it. I am still stuck at reboot, and the radio rom version shows the attempted upgrade version (01) that started the problem in the first place.
i tried some of them according to herein, but some of them were not function.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Technical
there's a little icon called "clear storage" which brings your settings to the factory's default. what's wrong with it?
i'm stuck too in bootloader with my mda pro

This may be too late, but there's no way to do any sort of a reset to revert back to a previous ROM... the only thing you can do is reflash the earlier ROM.

ok ... now the final BIG request ... who can give us an update that works. the patched Maupgradeut_noid is not working with the latest upgrade.
thanks.
To revert back to clean copy of OS (i.e newly installed OS)
Hi,
Just to share with you my experience in reverting my phone to its original OS condition. Before that, just to give you guys some background.
1. Upgraded from PPC2003 to WM5
2. Tried install some patch to enable file transfer (OBEX) in BT
3. Suddenly, the phone screen gone missing. Phone shows No Signal. Cannot receive call.
3a. Did a OS reflash again, but still does not solve the problem.
4. **Panic for a moment **
5. Looked thro Program Files, and seems like some appln i installed were not erased despite doing a hard reset. So, i guess the hard reset doesnt erase some portion of the memory
6. Googled for a solution, but most said do hard reset
7. Went back xda-developers.com site to look for solution
8. Finally found a method. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1164331 to do a format on the memory
Now, my phone is working fine. The phone screen is back and it shows my telco name, and can receive call
Hope this helps.
Rgds,

you're in the wrong forum mate

O2 mini using Dopod wifi card problem

Dear all,
One year ago, I tried to use the Dopod SDIO wifi successfully. But, after a few upgrade of rom and radio rom, I found that it was not function well.
Current status:
1. my O2 mini can detect the card2
2. the signal is quite unstable
3. sometimes it can get the IP address form my wireless router
4. but, I can't browse anywhere with the IP address
Action tried:
1. flash rom and radio rom with different version, different language
2. after flashing rom with version 1.11, or 1.12, I immediately test of my wifi, it can use for 10 sec to few minutes. But the signal seems unstable, and can't browsing any website after discconected.
3. no matter soft reset or hard reset, it can't connect again
4. same sitaution occur with different language of rom
Another strange is, I wonder why I hard reset, soft reset, and after flashing the rom, the password of WPA is still remain in my mini.
Do u guys have any suggestion and is there any software can help me to troubleshoot it?
Thx.

My devices cannot connect to PCs running ActiveSync 4.1.

My o2 neo got stucked on the o2 reset screen.After going through this forum i came to know that few others too had this problem, so i went ahead with flashing of rom (RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_ Ship.exe) as suggested. But i am having a problem connecting my o2 with my PC using activesync 4.1 as well as 4.5 as it is required for the process. I tried all the option for connecting it through activesync, but it failed to connect. can somebody please help me with any kind of setting that is needed to rectifying this problem, I have also tried some windows firewall setting but it also failed to connect to my device to my PC. Pls pls pls pls somebody help
Ok, let me see if I understand you problem correctly:
You reset your Neo, and it won't boot past the O2 splash?
This kind of problem usually results from installing a program that runs on startup or changing some vital registry settings.
Have you tried hard resetting your device to solve this? It's simple: press and hold power + comm manager + camera the press reset. You should get a black screen with white text asking you to confirm clearing the device. All data and programs you installed will be lost and the device will return to the state you got it in.
I am not sure why you think you need to change ROM to get rid of this problem (unless it happens often for no operant reason) but if you still want to go through with it (I hope you understand the risks involved) you will have to hard reset your phone first so it fully boots in to windows before you can connect to ActiveSync.
Thanks for replying Levenum,
I have tried to hard reset it but nothing happens, it won't go past the O2 splash screen. I have ever install any program on it, it just happen that one fine day i found that my device was off and when i pressed the power button it got stuck on the o2 screen and remained there.
I have been using this Prophet for past 3 months but i have never ever connected it to my PC for synchronization, could this be the reason for it not getting connected to the PC with activesync. if so what should i do.
Even when it is in the bootloader & i connect it with the usb cable it shows usb written on down left corner of the screen, but activesync says device not connected.
pls help...
Ok, now I know changing ROM is NOT the solution for you!
Now, sorry for the stupid question, but is your device fully charged?
Let it charge for at least 3 - 4 hours then try again - use a wall adapter not USB from PC. (These things get stuck on splash when they do not have enough power to fully boot)
Assuming that is not the issue, since it is a new device I suggest you use your warranty (I assume its under warranty from O2) because your problem might be hardware. If you try messing with the ROM you will only void any warranty you have and then you might wind up with a very expansive paper weight!
Finlay, unless you can get in to windows you can not connect to ActiveSync. There are ways of changing ROM through bootloader, but they are complicated (and I am not familiar with them well enough to help you). Please read the WiKi.
Once again, I think you should send it in for repair as this might be a hardware issue.

Ipaq 614c wifi missing

Hello all.
I have problem with WIFI.
When I look into SETTINGS/CONNECTIONS/WIRELESS MANAGER, I´m missing WIFI there => Only Bluetooth and Phone is shown.
I try reflash radio (0.89), original ROM, some ROMs from KEYX but nothing happened
After reset to factory settings still nothing.
Could you please help me with this?
Thanks in advance
This should correct the missing WiFi issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3791117&postcount=191
Hi Kiemlo
Unfortunately the key is 1 already
I try change key to 0 but results is wifi missing still
Any idea ?
Thx
what happened to cause it to be missing?
did you flash the phone witha new ROM? install a program recently?
Have yuo tried doing a FULL backup then a hard reset?
Yes I think that wifi just disappear after some ROM flashing.
But I try to flash all ROMs which I have before and WIFI not appear again in no one ROM.
I try hard reset without backup(by the menu factory reset and by voice comm+power+reset) with same result - wifi missing.
Hi,
My current rom removes wifi from the list when its connected to usb or activesync. When I unplug it automatically goes back to the state it was before, either powered off or on_and_connected!
Also, use radio rom 0.89, with 0.88 and 6.5 i had no wifi, it was present in the list but could not see any SSID's.
Cheers,
Balint
Yes I know wifi can´t activate (grey text) when its plugged to USB.
But in my case don´t matter if its plugged or unplugged - WIFI option is missing(not only with grey text)
radio is 0.89 and OS is 6.5 so there is something else broken
Not that this would help much, but I had a similar issue with my 914c while using HP's default OEM 6.1 software. The Wi-Fi used to vanish from the Comm. Manager every so often. For what it's worth, a couple of soft-resets would fix the problem sooner or later (for me, anyway). I'm using Montecristo's 6.5 now and haven't had the problem since.
Yea friend soft resets - I did it thousand-times, even hard resets 1000x not help...

I usually run into the same problem after ROM updates. Switch it off, remove the battery for a minute, insert the battery back in and hard reset fixes it always.

Flash original ROM with downgrading radio to 0.88
Sergious: unfortunately - this wouldn´t help.
even if yes, I can´t stand original ROM
I´m going to try Montecristo ROM
Best regards
Not working WiFi is a radio problem, not ROM. Link that i gave will downgrade your radio to 0.88, then you can flash any rom
PS. Montecristo ROM ?? It is for 914...
oh I miss that so next flashing will be with keyx roms still
I will try some flash and resets by the night ...
what goes around comes around
Hello everyone who can helps with me
I have some more informations.
After flash original HP ROM phone always show message problem with DEVICE.EXE until I disable sending report.
When i flash some KEYX 6,5 ROM this message doesn´t appear but when I look onto task manager DEVICE.EXE is mostly of the time under 90% of CPU.
With this battery is drain too quickly too.
This is may be the bad trick :/
Somebody knows it ?

I had the same problem with 23001 Beta 13.2 WWE, the WiFi was initially disappear from my Wireless Manager, then i change this : my network card connects to - The Internet (default is work), and the WiFi is now again show in Wireless Manager, but can not switch on, so after soft reset it works ok...
Zemun_PFC : thanks you for your advice - its so close to solve my issue.
I did what you say and
1) after soft restart BLUE LED blinking(means some wireless active - BT was off before restart so I suggest WIFI will be working) BUT
2) when i go to SETTINGS/CONNECTIONS/COMM MANNAGER and click on wifi -> waiting icon then nothing happened - STILL only TURN ON - BUT SHOULD BE ON already => so on/off trigger doesnt work
3!!) when I´m in COMM MANAGER and click on SETTINGS in bottom right corner I see WIRELESS LAN - this not happened before!!
4 when I´m click on it it show only BLUETOOTH and PHONE settings :/
You helped me a few with it
I must solve it

some of my roms (older version) had a issue when you use a2dp and turn off bt. Restart then device.exe will take most of the cpu
Keyx : yes you are right - I flash another one from you, now is device.exe issue cleared.
