I'm usin android 2.3.7 on my htc hd 2 and my wifi is not working properly most of the time it cant search a network and sometimes when discovers a network it shows very poor signal even when i m standing next to my router . i m using wifi on my laptop so there is no problem in my router .
can someone help please????
Have you tried any other ROMs to test that it is not a hardware issue? If so and the WiFi works, have you tried a different kernel?
sounds to me like a loose/broken antenna cable/connection. i think the wifi and bluetooth share the same antenna on the hd2, so test bluetooth also. if you get weak signals on bluetooth as well, it could very well indicate a hardware issue like i suspect...
u can try another rom and make sure the problem
You can try a different ROM, preferably with another kernel to test if it's the ROM, or the phone itself. Maybe you can flash the stock ROM, instead of an android ROM, and start the whole unlocking progress over. Maybe you missed something.

Hey guys. It's been a while but I've ran into a problem with my mytouch today when I tried to turn wifi on for the first time in forever. It just wouldnt connect. It would say aquiring ip address from [network] and then flash to disconnected, then scanning, then acquiring ip address again.
I've tried flashing a different rom, doing a nand restore to my previous rom (which had wifi working), and trying my friend's wifi and none of those worked.
Wifi stopped working after flashing this rom.

I've had issues with WPA2 networks where my phone wouldn't connect at first.
Try removing the network and starting over.
Still a no go.
Could it be a bad kernel that you've been installing?
It may also be a hardware failure (worst case scenario)
Try changing your network security type, or removing it completely.
I forgot to mention that I changed the kernal too. Still not working. I don't think (or I hope) it's not hardware failure. It's still picking up wifi signals and detecting networks. It just doesn't actually connect.
EDIT:
Wow I feel like the biggest noob now. After changing every possible thing I could think of on my phone, I restarted my router and my phone connected right after. That was really strange considering every other wireless device in the house had no trouble connecting but oh well. It works. Can't complain now. Thanks for the help guys
Same with MT3G. Can not connect any wifi now (Just 1 time after Flashing 2.2 ROM).
Don't know how to fix.
Changed 2 Froyo ROM already
same issue
Same problem here after flashing a Hero ROM like 5 months ago. Can't connect to WiFi, but I can still search and attempt to connect to a wifi network, but won't actually connect. I can still WiFi tether, which leads me to believe it's not a hardware issue...

I had the same problem. I think it's being caused by the wifi trying to autoconnect to a remembered AP in range. I just had my phone "Forget" the network I knew it was trying to connect to (my home network) and it worked.

Hi,
Cm7 is quiet weak with wifi. Meaning the signal strentgh in cm7 is less like e.g. on b 0.8.4 maybe flashing another radio helps.

I flash another radio and didn't work. Clear data, cache and dalvik. Nothing. Só i give a trie on nightly #58. Did a clean install and it worked. Went to the coffee shop and detect the wifi and could connect with a good signal. Tomorrow i'm going to my brother's house where i had the same problem. Then i will report if it's ok or not.
Thanks.

I went to the coffee shop and again... i dont see the wifi. Yesterday worked... today cant find again. I love cm7, but like this is not very good. Well, im going to downgrade. I cant find any real solution.

have you tried changing channels on wifi settings-->advanced-->regulatory domain? just a shot though. it worked for me on the nightlies. on latest cm7 stable though, i haven't need to change it...
did you use any other wifi tool than the cm7 internal one? Wifi analyser or similar apps may watch out for more ssid than CM7 itself
maybe the wifi channel is out of range, meaning cannel 11 or higher. Then change the channel settings in android settings

Hi
I have weird problem, I can connect to my home network (WPA2) and it works fine. When i want to connect to open wifi, I connect, however browser doesn't work, market etc. Other not secured wifis work. I know that the not working on HD2 wifi is working on my iPod. Do you have any reason why is that? My rom is imilkas sense.
refrrrresh!
which imilkas sense rom? he has many available
what router is it? b/g/n ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963521
This rom, however it didn't work as well with all sense 3.0 roms. I don't know what router it is, because it's school router and i have no ability to check it.
buuuuuuuuuuuump!
anybody can help?
try a differnet rom
Refresh, changed ROM few times, still doesn't work, now i use Rafdroid, before I used some sense 3.0 ROM however even before it didn't work. Once I found wifi i was looking for but after phone restart it disppeared. Do you know what may cause that/how to fix it?
No ideas, anyone?
Is the wifi working with the windows mobile stock rom ???
I had only once with a rom a wifi problem, after installing another kernel is was over.
Most likely that you need to go to a specific address to get a cookie.
I don't know if it worked on WM because just as i bought it, I changed to android. Now it works on Cyanogen however i still don't know how to make it work on any Sense rom
Hello, I have an EU HD2 running Hyperdoid 2.1.0, but I've had this problem no matter which rom I tried and I'm at my wits' end trying to solve it.
When I connect to WPA wifi routers, the connection starts out fine, but after a short while my connection to the router seems to get cut off. The delay before this happens could be seconds or it could be 1 or two minutes and seems to depend on the amount of data passing over the interface - when I view a streaming video for example, I get disconnected almost immediately, when I browse pages with few graphics it lasts a bit more. I tried this with 3 or 4 different routers with identical results.
Notwithstanding that no data is getting through, the phone still indicates that I am connected to the wifi router and when I ping the router it gives me a "no route to host". WEP and open networks work fine, so I had to change my home network to WEP, but I'm not conforable with it due to security concerns. I also have problems connecting to public wifi ap's because they are usually secured by WPA.
I suspect that this is related to the wpa_supplicant supplied with tytung's kernel, but I really have no way of knowing what's going on and I haven't been able to find anything in the logs.
Can anybody give me a hand with this? Solving this problem would make the hd2 the perfect phone for me.
please post this in the Q&A section NOT the dev section
i do not suffer from these issues and my router is wpa2 secured

The problem in this world is... FLAMING coming from people that are kinda stupid to help.. no offense as i haven't mentioned any of you.. I just can't understand, none of those flamers are mods/devs.. maybe i can say trolls since its a hobby..
Well i might help, i remember such a question before and i think i know the solution of WIFI connection disappearance.. there's an application (which you can find it in market) that survive's or something your WiFi connection.. i'll try searching it and if i find it.. i'll post the link..
Good luck with those flamers =)

Thanks white-energy. I use wifi fixer when I need to connect to a wpa network, but it's a less than satisfactory solution because it doesn't stop the connection from dropping - it just reconnects automatically. That means that I can browse almost normally, but streaming video or downloading is still almost impossible.
If you know of better software I would be very much obliged.

While I agree that this the wrong forum, should be moved to the right forum et all, here is my $0.02
Have you tried Tytung's NexusHD2 build (not just the kernel)? try 2.8 or 2.9, in my experience his implementation is the most reliable. So reliable that I use the Wifi/BT drivers and related files in my CM7 nightly build. And it works like a charm.
If you are having troubles even in his ROM, something else is wrong. Top of my head, try a different radio. I toggle between 2.12 and 2.15, both with varying degrees of reliability.

Hi ph03n!x,
Thanks for the tips. I haven't tried NexusHD2 because I like the cm7 mods. But I will presently, just to make sure. I'll also try switching radios.
Well.. i guess i have found it... here
It looks like it has some special things.

Give NexusHD2 a shot just to find the Wifi stability.
You can try the latest of the CM7 nightlies released by Arif Ali, along with Tytung's kernel (available in his thread).
I can upload my custom CM7 build based on Arif Ali's CM7 nightlies with Tytung's Kernel and Wifi/ BT drivers and related files somewhere, but am a cLK user. And of course I will have to remove my paid apps from it before sharing

Hi white-energy. I gave it a test drive but no luck. This software seems to be intended to maintain wifi while the Device is sleeping, but this problem I have occurs while the device is being used. Thanks anyway for your help!

I'm about to switch the radio. Let you know what happens .

Ok, so I tried switching radio to .12 - no joy. I also tried Tytung's NexusHD2, but it does exactly the same thing.
I don't know what else to try. If there weren't other people with this problem, I would suspect that my phone is defective, but would that make sense given that open networks and wep networks work fine??
Hi every body,,,
my tilapia wireless wont' find any wireless network, it's ON , but it's searching and nothing will be find,
I tried almost every rom, and it's not working,
pls Help
Did you try with a custom kernel?
The WiFi aerial is built into the rear cover. There are reports of signal problems due to either the back cover not being pressed on fully or the spring connector tabs breaking or being pushed in too far to make a connection with the aerial.
