Problem with Wifi and GPS after switching back to WM - HD Mini General

Hi everybody,
I used Schlunds SD Version of Photonic. Everything works fine. But after a reboot to WM I found out that my phone identifies itself with android-decb55ff... Also GPS can't get a signal.
So I restarted the Phone to Android to be sure I have turned on GPS and Wifi. I also tried to get a gps position without success.
So back in WM I couldn't notice any differences (DHCP with android-xxx, GPS without signal).
Than I tried several NAND Versions (Photonic, Phonerty, MUIU) ending all with the same result
Is there a way to reset the gps to factory settings like a sirf chipset?
How can I change the wifi name?

Hi, sorry for late answer,
what is famous about this SD version is when you turn off GPS it will turn in WM also, or use the Google's one SDCARD version..

O2 Xda Stealth, Wifi card not detected.

Hi guys,
Inherited a Stealth few weeks back but i realised that the Wireless option (to turn it on and off) doesnt work, nothing happens when i try to turn on my wifi, so i did a hard reset, but after the hard reset, it doesnt even detect or show up my wireless options. Any ideas guys?
What ROM are you using ??? I had a similar problem with my stealth for over 6 months after upgrading ROM....I tried every thing including careful changes in registry ....the problem was only solved after downgrading to the original ROM more than once ....I still get minor problems when WIFI wouldnot load but works after repeated soft reset ....I suggest you try to soft reset few times an see if this solves the problem....best of lucks....
hi man,
Thanks for replying.
I am using WWE_RM061208. Everytime i restart the phone it says, "Unrecognized card in slot" i am assuming this is the wifi card? any ideas? which version rom should i be using? It asks me to enter the device driver/name or something. thanks.
The unknown card is the wifi card....I used to get this notification daily for over 6 months when the wifi was not working .....Try soft-reset few times and if the notification disappears then wifi should work.....Is your ROM Original or cooked???? have you upgraded the ROM at all??
HI man,
Yes i have upgraded the ROM from www.mwg.com but it doesnt really do much, some of the settings still are around. Any suggestion which ROM should i use? What ROM are u using man? I tried soft reseting a few times but it doesnt work, it still comes up.
The ROM from mwg is original and I used it for downgrade from wm6 (YUC)..... is the wifi working when you hard reset the device ????....I used yuc wm6 but because of wifi problem there, I downgraded from mwg and then upgraded again to yuc wm6 from here

Hello All,
Since a fortnight, am observing strange problems within Network (clogs) and Virus Attacks on my Internet Cable based connection. This is a 256 Kbps line.
Problem I can see is:
a) A script or attacked is launched from a remote server/machine. It's domain address is 222360.com. Attacks happened from union.222360.com, s.222360.com and now with v.222360.com.
b) Once the scripts is launched (.js script), it gets hooked within my browser (Firefox 2.0.0.11).
c) Then, my internet activity will be disrupted severely for some time!! (can't open any page). I am using "Adblock Plus" within Firebox to block this script off.
d) Is there is no script, an attacked is launched on the open HTTP ports or on Yahoo Messenger.
e) Ultimately, an attack is made in form or Trojan or Exploit to gain access or to steal information from my system.
I can see the following logs from the NAV 2007 firewall.
I have similar problems with my stealth..
But worse...
My wireless manager only shows Bluetooth and Phone..

I had a similar problem with wifi for over one year . I had to down and upgrade my stealth 3 or 4 times and finally worked alone after repeat soft reset ...another problem is that you may see wifi icon but doesnot work on pressing it...try removing the battery for 6 to 12 hours and restart again...now at this time I did soft reset for my stealth and the wifi didnot load but iam sure it will work after few hours or tomorrow
First of all thank God,because sending this guy(Yuc) to us..you gave a new life for our O2Xda Stealth,like a candle shining in the dark..Trilions thanks to you.
Actually i would like to ask somebody's help about ZiIME.CAB.. i deleted phoneime.dll but still can't delete zisip_Opt.dll.. it said "Cannot delete file ZiSip_Opt:the file may be in read-only memory,on a write-protected disk,or currently in use by another applications"
is there another way to delete this file?
Secondly how to kill "cprog.exe" in Task Manager?
Another silly question is can somebody upgrade O2XdaStealth GPRS Cellular Data Link to 3G or 3.5G..or is there any Booster for Internet connection?
the 02 xda stealth camera. it was its quality built-in GPS receiver, CK3300 adds navigation functions to the benefits of the CK3100 kit. It enables the driver to access wirelessely NMEA-0183 standard GPS data via Bluetooth . Those Data can be used with all Smartphones or PDAs. The GPS output may also be utilised with the Route 66 navigation software for Symbian mobile phones, allowing not just house-number precision navigation but also up-to-date traffic information.
After almost 9 years from this post, my stealth is still alive

[Q] GPS doesn't work anymore

Hello androids,
I'm another n00b trying to kill my phone
I tried to flash some roms from this forum for my Tattoo, with different versions of OS (1.6, 2.1, 2.2). My preferences goes to Pancake 1.0.6; anyway I tried to see if all works and I get stuck with the GPS:
when I turn it on and start a navigator like NDrive or Navigon, they says "No GPS".
If I quit these programs, switch of the GPS from my tattoo and restart one of these programs (of course I tried one by one) they let my switch on the GPS receiver. Then back to the navigator, it tries to reach some satellite without an end. Also, there's no GPS icon in the topbar when the navigator, or another program that uses the GPS receiver, is working.
So I tried to switch back to a backup of my original rom without success. I also tried to flash another rom with 1.6 version like the original one, but without good results.
Can someone help me?
Yeaaah!
I've made a flash with the original rom for the HTC Tattoo and now it works!
Ok, let's retry some custom roms

Good evening,
I have the same problem.
I've switched back to the original rom but nothing work.
The GPS seems on but no application can use it.
Please help us .
Thank you.
I guess this is a very common problem on tattoo.My phone sometimes connects to satelites but sometimes not.I have tryed severals programs like GPS STATUS which show that there are satelites in view , but the programs just don't connect to them.Any solution ?
The Tattoo always needs a lot of time for connecting to satellites. If your inside a building it probably never will. So maybe that's the simple solution. Just go outside where it's got better connection.

My Tattoo needs less then 1 or 2 minute to connect to satellites, but now never. I've tested that the only ROM that is able to connect to satellite is the SP-Froyo AOSP. I've tried lot of ROM, my original nand backup, other 1.6, 1.6 SenseUI, 2.1, 2.2 but nothing to do. The only one is the SP-Froyo AOSP. Anyone can help us with this issue??? Lot of thank in advance.
You may try Ndrive 10 it is the only program that runs smoothly for me and connects to satelites even from my room.

[Q] Radio version VS GPS success/failure.

Im running radio version 2.15.50.14
Ive been running this version since I first switched the phone from winmo to android.
ive been through 2 different builds, countless gps.conf files, including blank.
have tried GPS Status, fastfix, you name it..
not a single sat, not one, ever.. Im running gpstest and all it ever says is 0 in view 0 used..
current build is coredroid 1.4
Ive tried changing everything EXCEPT the radio..
so, my question is, does your HD2's GPS work, and if so what radio are you running?
I know there are bunch of people in the same boat.
1. of all, test gps in Windows mobile. If it isn´t successful then your gps receiver is broken.
I had that problem.

sorry forgot to mention, did that.
between android builds i wiped her completely out and did winmo 6.5 and the gps did work with it.
there are a lot of other people having poor to no GPS with android builds, and I doubt they all have broken recievers
Having issue of initially not getting a GPS lock in Android. I am using GPS Status. If I use GPS Status and go to Tools>Manage A-GPS State and do a restet A-GPS state, it gets a lock within 30 seconds and all apps after the Reset A-GPS State work.
It seems to a be an Android Build issue in that when the GPS is initialized to be used, it is not being reset properly.

Rooted Z w/custom ROM & radio - GPS problems

Update: sorry, I will read this thread first, seems to be relevant to my problem. As I'm not able to delete my own post, any moderator can delete this as they please...
Hope anyone can help me out...
My nearly 1 year old Desire Z, bought here in Norway, started acting strangely 2-3 months ago when I suddenly realized that none of the navigation software* I sometimes use were able to detect a GPS signal.
At first I thought it was the navi software that was buggy, but after a while I learned that by turning the GPS completely off then on fixed the problem for that "session" (next time I want to use Waze I need to do this over again).
At that time I was using CM7. I thought maybe the problem was within the radio (I assume that "radio" covers both the phone (gsm) radio, the wifi and the gps (plus the fm radio), that they are all part of the same "chip", but I might be wrong).
So what I did was both to move over to Miui, and to upgrade the radio.
So now my Desire Z runs
Miui 1.9.16 and
12.57.60.25U_26.10.04.12_M radio
Unfortunately the problem is still there.
So I have to 1) start Waze, then 2) go to phone settings, personal, my location and turn off "use gps satellites", wait 10 seconds, turn back on, then go back to waze. Using the gps quick setting from the pull down status bar doesn't seem to have the same effect.
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?
Can it be a hardware error?
Also, Miui for some reason has some added GPS settings;
NTP server address (europe.pool.ntp.org)
SUPL server address (supl.google.com)
do these settings have anything to do with my problem (my guess is no)
Thanks,
Christopher

[Q] GPS not working

Hello,
I have bought a HTC HD2 with a broken digitizer from my friend, fixed it by myself and installed tytung JellyBean 1.2 rom. Everything work fine (phone, WiFi, bluetooth), except no program can find any GPS satellites. All program shows that "GPS is on", or "GPS signal detected", but no matter how long I wait it can't get any signal from satellites. At first I thought that GPS antenna coaxial cable might be disconnected, so I dissembled my phone, but didn't find any problems. Then I made some research and tried to modify GPS.config file (to add NTP server), installed "AngelDeath" Instantaneous GPS Fixation v1.2, tried some programs, but nothing helped.
My phone configuration:
HTC HD2 (512)
HSPL: 2.08.
Radio: Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14
Bootloader: MAGLDR v1.13
Recovery: Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.0.2.6
Tytung Android 4.12 NAND rom (with data on sd)
Maybe someone knows how to test if GPS chips is good (want to figure out if it is a software version or hardware)?
Many thanks!
P3tras
P.S. I do not know if GPS worked before. I didn't try it with stock windows mobile soft and the person whom I bought phone from didn't ever use GPS
About the gps issue...
I've been on NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.3a, EvoHD2v10 ICS 4.0.4-full HWA, NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.8,
PARANOIDANDROID HD2 v1.5b, and a few other roms I can't remember...
It seems the gps works great when Wifi or mobile Data is on and can access the internet,
other than that it'll just keep on scanning until it spots a gps satellite.
I have a map app, that downloads the maps of certain countries or cities, but when I turn on gps, it just stay searching for a satellite...
once I turn on wifi and also turn on location services for google (all check on boxes), it takes secons for the gps to pinpoint where I'm at...
Not very good in rural areas where there's very little reception...
it seems miui roms made from langthang or possibly any gingerbread roms works well,
since I had no problems with the gps in miui, rafdroid or coredroid...
I did made a search through google using advanced search and the forums, but only found 4 threads, all but this one only a month old...
Maybe it works for you, get fasterfix from google play, and set it at your current location, then turn on your location services
in the settings, then use your map...
I have a EU HD2 currently running NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.3a, which in my opinion is running great, minus the gps running offline...
Magdlr
data on ext
16gb sandisk SDcard
Update!! Looks like all I needed to do was put a check on wifi and mobile network location under
settings -> location access.
It might download gps data like windows mobile did when it needed to, but this time google doesn't tell
you that, it just does it...
I haven't tested it when I'm outside so I'll test it tomorrow. I'll post the results after.
current rom I'm using: NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.1.2-CM10 V1.3a, with same settings.
Another Update!!
Just got back from a computer hiccup, and yes, GPS does work offline, it took a while for my phone to pick up
a satellite, but only around 2 to 3 minutes on the second try, it seems that it can pick up in seconds with data
help, then it takes a little longer every minute or hour the GPS is used offline...
But that's my assumption on this process based on how it worked on windows mobile...
Also it's the same on my pad but that's another matter... All I can say is get a map software that download maps
into your phone, rather than the app constantly hogging/relying on your data connection, of course if data connection is
an issue, if not, disregard the last bit.
