Poor wireless LAN performance - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi there,
I'm experiencing, that the WirelessLAN-Quality is extremely poor.
I'm next to my router and the Touch Diamond offers my ONE green bar and Rx-Rate of 1 to 12 MBit.
Is anything wrong? I already set the battery settings to maximum performance.
Thank you,
Hennes19

NO, it is not normal...
It could have also something to do with your router...
Have you tried you diamond with another router and see if the problem remains? If yes, than I would advise you to update your ROM to the lastest available version.
But first try to hard reset your device WITHOUT THE SIM CARD INSIDE.
HastaSSSS

why without eh sim card?

I don't know why...but one thing I know: sometimes when I reseted with the sim inside, I had some issues afterwards, like icons that didn't show up...other wi-fi problems, etc, etc etc...
I don't if it makes any sense, but since I started reseting and flashing without sim cards of sd cards inside, I've never had a single issue with any of my devices, this Diamond or any of the previous.
I don't have on my device not even 5% of the issues other user write on this forum. I could be because of this...I don't know...
HastaSSSS

will try on my nexr reset, it won't kill me after all

Maybe a "WM beginner question", but how can I hard reset my device?
Is there a shotcut or via Start-Menu?
Thank you very much!

That's interesting. I have the same problem with my Diamond since my last hard reset.
Even when I am close to my WiFi router, the Diamond loses the signal and has to reconnect every minute. Wireless LAN Performance is also very poor. Via HSDPA the weather updates takes a second or so. Via WLAN it takes about 10-15 seconds! Is there another chance to fix this accept for another hard reset?

You can also do it via the Start menu, instead of the 3 button approach:
Start -> Settings -> System -> "Opslag wissen"/Erase Storage? -> 1234

Thank you very much, but unfortunately, I have got the same problem.
My ROM-Version is 1.37.407.2 GER
ROM-Date 06/15/08
Radio: 1.00.25.03
Is there any new software, I can try?
I have the possibility to send it back to amazon. Shall I do this?
I have to add, that the bottom region (around the sim card) gets extremely hot (not the battery)
Thank you

I have exactly the same ROM and Radio Version and my Diamond also gets hot at the bottom, so we probably have got faulty devices.

I will call HTC hotline tomorrow and I will post the result ASAP

ALL diamonds are very hot. However, I noticed that depending on the ROMS some make the device hotter than others. It could also be my senses, since I didn't measure it with any kind of thermometer.
Try a different ROM.There are plenty of choices now. Just download and install them.
You can find them all under the ROM development section.
HastaSSSS

Thank you,
but, can I make a rollback, if nothing else works?
I'm afraid of loosing warranty if I try a different ROM
Do you have an advice for a ROM newer/better than mine
;-)

Make sure the power/battery mix is indeed set to "maximum performance", it reverted back to "maximum battery life" on mine the other day for some reason and wifi is USELESS in that mode, pretty decent with "maximum performance" though although battery life drops like a rock.

i've experienced the same symptoms as mentioned above.
i also got my diamond from german amazon and the firmware is still stock.
setting the wlan power management seems to help, but as said before it drains the battery.
but maybe the problem is somewhere else: i read in some submenu of the phone, that the wlan disconnects itself when it no internet connection is required.

Did you already try going into (menu in touchflo3d) settings -> wireless lan -> powermode -> powermode -> "best performance"?
Don't know if I translated it correctly cause I got a dutch one.
However, this solved it for me. Normally the powermode of wireless lan is set to "best power saving" and well..that causes a weak link between your router and the phone.
You can try changing it, perhaps it helps

Using the stock rom 1.37.45.1 UK and both TLR roms I have an excellent signal to my router using the "Best Battery" setting, even when I'm in the garden and my router is a good distance away. Even my grandfathers router I also get a fantastic signal, even better than my Tytn 2 had.
My router is a Netgear WNR834B V2 and my grandfathers is also a Netgear router but his was provided by sky.
Perhaps people who have bad or good performance may want to list there router in order to give and idea if it's a certain brand that may be causing the problems.

OK, I called the HTC hotline ... with no result.
My ROM-Version is the latest for the german model
The temp.problem is a known issue but they still have no workaround.
The WLAN performance is unknown. Simple answer: Just return it to the vendor.
So, I called amazon and they will send me another one. If the problem still remains, the new phone will also go back to amazon and I'll wait for Experia X1 or Touch Pro.
Thank you for your assistance!!

Has anyone experienced this kind of Radio Problem?

Hello,
I've been a BlueAngel (SX66-Cingular Variant) user since a long time. It'd been working great. I re-flashed the original rom several times with the new BA updates/ roms from XDA's Ftp site and they all worked like charm.
ISSUE:
--------
Lately (since a month), I am experiencing some issues with it. It seems to be always searching for Network/ Service, all the time. An ongoing call will get disconnected. And very frequently i'll see a NO SERVICE notification. The NETWORK INDICATOR in the task bar will go to a High Strength and then Searching status. It is usually taking more than 30 mins to search the operator for me to make/ recieve any call. People trying to reach me inform me that my phone is Not Reacheable.
I've reflashed it to different BA ROM combinations but it didn't help.
I dont want to assume that it is a Hardware failure as i didnt do anything which can cause a damage to the instrument.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
What all can i try? What is the BEST SUITED ROM for this Device?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<
>>>>> ONE MORE QUERY :-
My Blueangel Back Cover Shows that this device is PH20B, but the ROM indicates that it is a PH20B1 Device. (This device is actually without a camera) Why do i see a difference here?
>>> USERS in INDIA or NCR Region: Is there any authorised/ recommended place i can get this device serviced?
Any help or suggestion is very much appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
- Harry
My SX66 is now Dead!! Pls. Help!
Desperate to fix this problem, i pulled the battery to power drain the BlueAngel. I even went a step ahead and shorted all the power connectors (which connect to battery) of the device with help of a metal needle. I placed the battery back and now the set is dead!!
I just can't believe this. How can i get this device powered on now??
Thank you all for help in advance!
-Harry
Try to plug into the power supply and see if it work. Let the phone charge for a while if it doesnt power up when u plug in. Try this and see if it work.
As for the "phone keep searching for operator" problem, I have the same problem too. Whenever I go underground and the phone lost signal, it will take forever to recover the signal. What you can do is to go to "Setting"->"Phone"->"Network" tab and select "Find Network" and the signal should recover.. Note to set the "Network selection" to automatic. I had encountered problem when I set it to manual where the phone will show good signal but call cannot come in.
hope this help...

Thanks a million Bioskoh! Your power supply suggestion got this device back to life.
I am still facing the network/ radio issue with this device. I already have Automatic set under the network selection settings. I am facing this issue everywhere... Even where the signal should be very strong. I dont know what else to do . Any other suggestion/s are welcome..
Thank you again! Viva la XDA-developers.

Any other suggestions please....
I have installed Radio 1.13.10 with 1.42 (T-Mob/NL), but this issue still persists. This device has become more slower and lazy in the past few months.
I am still mad at the phone function of this device. Once half of the battery is consumed, It wont even allow me to make/ recieve any call.
Someone on this forum please help. Is there any New ROM update from Siemens (>1.33 Rom) please?
Also friends, how is the stability of WM 2k5 on this device? Would you recommend installing it just to see if it fixes this issue?
One Last Question: What is the BEST ROM combination for this device? Also any customized Ext ROM with all the patches/ fixes included. Links to the location are greatly appreciated.
Thank you all again for your time and help!
-Harry
For WM03 on SX66, you can use the ROM from the SX66 Standardization Project website. Link: http://home.comcast.net/~sx66-blueangel/
As for WM05, I am using the Helmi WM05 AKU3.5 Ver1.4 ROM. It is quite stable. You can go to this website for detail: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Helmi
You will need to have some patience and follow the upgrade procedure to make everything work good. Remember to read/search the forum for answers.
Have fun flashing your ROM!

cryptocoder, a number of us have similar issues, but so far it has been restricted to Orange UK users.
Do you find that when you attempt to make an outgoing call that you get three short beeps at least 50% of the time? And that incoming calls either go to answerphone after a delay, or alternatively they fail with a number out-of-service tone?
Finally, do you have issues sending txt messages soon after a failed call. I get the message "The phone is not ready, please try again in 15 sec".

Major!! Wifi Will Not Turn On!!

I've tried it all!! The wifi will not turn on at all. In the settings tab and under connection, the comm manager wifi switch pressed will cause the wait cursor to come up, but after the process it wont turn to on. Can anyone please help me.
how do u know its not on? cant detect wifi?
Is the Wifi antenna icon comes up on the top menu ?

Not Sure What you mean.
1. Go to comm manager
2. Hit WiFI and the wait icon starts (should be a quick spin and its on, but the icon goes on for a while).
3. Switch instead of turning green animates back to off.
I have not loaded anything other then SKtools that could change the registry or system in anyway (no other tweaks except Schapp's)
I looked all over this forum and found tricks for other HTC phones, tried one or two, but they are made for other phones. I looked over the GPS and in Google Earth disabled it. I have also done a hard reset. I also get a device.exe error.
Please somebody help us. My diamond's wi-fi doesn't work. I try a lot of tfink. I try a lot of time hard reset. And several times upgrade diffrent roms. Now i use 1.37.401 europa rom. But my diamond's wi-fi still not work.

Mines the same. Done a soft reset - nothing. Done a hard reset and all seems fine for the mo.
Got my phone from orange.
hard reset u mean erase all and start like new?
with this hard reset.. the same problem... any other option??
No Wify

I have the same problem with german htc touch diamond and several roms.
I think the hardware has an error. Bull**** !!!
Has anyone an other idea?
I had this issue with my S710, if you turned the wifi on it would flip to on for a second before going back to off - only happened if I has it hooked up to a pc via usb. Not sure if its the same with the diamond?
I couldn't enable Wifi properly on my last phone despite hard and soft resets. After trying lots of times, I gave up and sent the phone back to Orange. I currently have a Diamond Touch that has no problems enabling, but can't connect to my router using WPA2.
I think I have the solution for wifi / wlan problems on diamond
Over one week i try to start my wifi (100 hardresets, 5 new ROMs) and then i believe it is an hardware error.
Under ...\connection\wifi\ was not the tab "wireless", only the tab "networkcards"
My last try was the solution:
1. In my HTC Kaiser is the same wifi-hardware
2. I export the registrykey "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511" from the kaiser to a .reg-file
3. I delete this registrykey on the diamond and import the .reg-file from the kaiser
4. Before I can start wifi i make about 5 softresets and try to start
5. But the start was only successful when I make first a connection to the pc with ActiveSync and then a softreset
This is my solution, please answer me when it works for you too
One problem is still there: after an usb connection wifi will not turn on. I must make a softreset but thats no problem for me.
Its the same what "huwwatkins" describe at #13 with the S710
Here is my regfile from kaiser

I have heard of this... The wifi does not go on but the bluetooth does. I was told it was a bad chip.
same here, called retailer today. told me HTC is working on a fix. will be available in about two weeks. let ya know
Same problem here..
I have the same problem. Tried everything - no luck. Thinking of turning it in for repair - should I flash the original SPL/ROM for warranty reasons or can they tell it's been flashed anyway ?
wifi working fine on mine
i have no problems at all

HTC Diamond WiFi issue, help needed

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can resolve/give suggestion for my problem.
Basically i have experience problems connecting via Wi-Fi i.e the after activating wi-fi the phone will scan for available networks and give you the list. I then try to connect to my router (bt home hub which is actually speed touch) it does connect and stays connected for some time then suddenly the connection is dropped and under wifi it says that my access point is unavailable. If i turn wifi off/on again and scan for networks it comes up with "No visible Networks detected" even though there are like 5 access points in my house and i can connect to any of them using my laptop and old nokia e60. If i wait a while it will connect again but will not keep the connection. I have tried at home, work and some public places-every time is the same story.
Things i tried:
Soft reset/hard reset (many times)
Tried disabling phone radio in case3g chip interrupts
I tried with secure networks, open networks, different types of authentication/encryption, different router (more than 10) and every its the same story. I also tried several ROMS and ALL RADIO's available with the same result.
I am currently on Duttys_Diamv2.3 WWE RADIO 1.00.25.08, its a clean flash, nothing else is installed. I also have SPL-1.40Olinex installed (not sure if that could have an impact) The phone is vodafone branded btw (i had the same issue with vodafone rom which is why i decided to try other roms). I wonder if anyone has any thoughts/suggestions and would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
The same situation happened to my Diamond. I took it to the local dealer for HTC and after several days, I am told that the main board will need replacement. I am still waiting for it to be repaired as the parts had to be braught in from another country. I was also saud if the phone was less than a month old (which it is not) they would have replaced it with a new phone.
Good luck repairing yours and keep us updated.

Thanks Omar, I was kinda thinking that it may be hardware issue, but I don't anymore, I am trying something else actually as we speak. The only thing I haven't tried before is another hard SPL and I think that's the problem, I installed another version hspl1.34 and it seems more stable now and wifi keep connection, also with another hspl version (it was hspl 1.24) RAM under devise info>hardware showed 128, now it is 192. I will test in intensively and post my results here in case nay one else have the same issue. Hopefully I will not have to send it away for repair. Thanks for your info anyways.
In risk of sounding lame ...
Have ya tried 'Start' / 'Settings' / 'System' 'Wireless LAN'
Under Wireless LAN click 3'rd tab (strømtilstand in Danish - could be power-settings)
On that tab - pull the marker way to the left in order not to minimize the power consumption when tryng to hookup with the WiFi.
I had massive problems to get my local WiFi working at home - until I did this trick.
Best luck, Kindly

Yes i have thats the first thin you do anyways . I am now more than sure that the issue was with HSPL version 1.34, as soon as i got rid of it (installed hspl 1.24) all is fine.
With my phone, i tired all Hard SPL versions and even went back to stock SPL & Rom 1.37 & 1.93 and it still didn't fix the WIFI issue. it will work for 5-15 minutes then it will not work.
Anyway, I got a replacement phone as apparently they couldn't fix it.

...I have the same problems with you
However, I think the problem may caused by different ROM versions.
My hTC version Diamond initially flashed a Chinese version ROM, and the WiFi connects well, while I changed to Dutty's most updated ROM, this problem comes and I cannot figure out why untill now.
Some friends also suggested to go to the Power Management and change WiFi to "Best Performance", I tried and failed again.
WiFi can open and connect to Routers located in library of my university, nevertheless it cannot open any pages.
I'm also waiting for any person that can solve the problem and then help us figure out why....
thanks in advance!
I got the same problem as most of the people have. and i think "Fail to turn on wifi" is a very common among guyz who got HTC TD.
I dont know what should be done, i almost tried every thing. actually my phone was locked to 3 mobile Sweden and i unlocked it but my wifi was'nt working before unlocking too but i did'nt gave attention to it. Now i noticed it.. is that any one know how to lock it again soo that i can send my mobile for repairs or, any one know what should i do.
I would recommend upgrading your radio and your rom.
Ive been rocking the setup in my sig for some weeks now and its been flawless, stable and fast.
which rom and radio you are using. can you please help me in this matter.
and i think its not a hardware problem because its showing that hardware is connected to my device as its shown in the screen shoot
Hi,
Im using AlphaZero V7 NLD,
Im have 1 wifi point in my house, downstairs.
even when im on the attic i have 80% signal strengt.
My router is a draytek 2820G router.
Wifi for me is very good. .. correctly, AZTOR V7 NLD is very good for me.
im on t-mobile network.
Radio Radio v1.00.25.05 , Radio v1.00.25.08, Radio v1.00.25.16, where all good,
now testing Radio v1.08.25.20, HDSPA signal is bit weaker atm.
my best radia atm i think, v1.00.25.08.
im betting, that the starter of this toppic, who has 5 access points in his house all have the same SSID. This is not the way.
Or make 1 big AP aera, bij connecting the AP's to each other.
of try to set every AP its own SSID, and its own Channel.

i also have the same problem. it detects a wifi (my router at home Aztech brand), then trying to connect to it, and then it always showed the wifi as "unavailable". i put my phone 2 mm distance from the antenna of my router it also won't connect. i have change dozens of roms, win 6.1, 6.5, 6.5.1, different cook, MTTY, all with no success.
i've looked for internet and google for answers, i seen quite a lot of forum has described this issue, but with no solution. most of the ppl suggest in various forums to pull the wireless slider to "Best Performance", ofcourse i have done that, but is just the same result.
i'm still trying searching for a solution for this, i hope is not a hardware issue because my warranty has already ended. i'm currently using Gen Y R4.1B rom

Ok consider now wifi will work by re-flashing the spl.
But what is the relation between spl (os/winmo loader) with wifi?
another dang unsolved diamond wifi?
bravo.
same problem with wifi on diamond2
With Original stock WM6.1 i was unable to connect at all, after flashed official WM6.5 upgrade everything worked fine. However i decided to put cooked rom because of battery life and perfomance issues. Dutty HG6 for Topaz seems to be with glitchy radio, it works sometimes, very rare, and i'm still not up to the pattern when does it happen and why.

With Original stock WM6.1 i was unable to connect at all, after flashed official WM6.5 upgrade everything worked fine. However i decided to put cooked rom because of battery life and perfomance issues. Dutty HG6 for Topaz seems to be with glitchy radio, it works sometimes, very rare, and i'm still not up to the pattern when does it happen and why. Pretty sure it's not a hardware problem - so everybody relax, we will find the solution.

GSM not working but 3G works

Hey. Today is not my day
My phone wont work with GSM anymore, it works well with 3G but when it tries to connect to a GSM network it just dies :/ i have no clue what it could be. It was working well yesterday, i have tried to do a hard reset but still wont work. any ideas? Thanks.
Sorry for bad english!
by the way, there is a strange sound in the speaker when it tries to connect to a GSM network.
and it doesnt die if i have it on charge.
has you have set the telefonsettings to gsm network or to automatic?
My phone also needs the manual setting to GSM.

On automatic it sets on 3G becurse i got 3G here, and if it losts the 3G connection and tries to connect to GSM it dies. ( thats how i found out about this problem on the way too school this morning. )
in my network i observe problems with connects to GSM: Sometime i lost the GSM connection/signal, where my Wizard has a safty connection.
It can be a standard Problem with the current Radio ROM
I think about change the radio ROM. pse look to Diamond ROM development to find a instruktion. the ".25.05" should be the best Radio Rom with a better energy performence and better Signals. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407956
BUT i have not change in this time, while i test my Battery performance after a reducing of background software/applications.

die completly = shut down/swith of the Diamond?
This i not have obervate.
If you follow the instructions, the Radio update is out of problems. If you will get the old radio version, so you can get it back with the original provider update of ROM.
for german Vodafone there is a download by vodafone.de under "technischer Support". i think the most providers has a update download. Look to your provider, if there be a ROM update.

I'll have too check it out, im from .SE so i'll need to find a radio that works here then?

before you look for a new Radio, make a reset or a hard reset. My be, that it "repair" your problem.
By my WIZARD i has update the Radio.
I think, that the radio ROMs for the Diamond are also standards (how by the WIZARD) without differences.
Radio ROMs look to:

Thanks alot!
OK, i hope you get a better Signal after changing the Radio version.
so as i have read, is version 05 the optimal version with stable signal and lower battery consumption.
pse read self the linked threads to find your optimal Radio ROM.

Touch Diamond getting hot - but not battery

I have an cooked ROM since over three months and there where
never any problems with it, but the fast emptiness of the batt, but I have an allways full charged replacement batt and two dockingstations with extra batt loader.
But my device is getting hot the last two days... but not the batt, I think its the CPU inside.
I first uninstalled everthing unnecessery, then made a soft reset and now a hard reset, without installing anything new, but again its getting hot.
What could be the Problem?
Attached the screenshots of the device and ROM Informations.
The Rom I use allways worked fine, till before two days it began to heat the device.
I like my Touch Diamond, I got used to it, it would be a pity buying a nother one, also because I dont have the money for.
Please if you have any suggesttions, help me.
Yours cincerly,
Robert
Try changing your radio.
Good Luck!
Could it be your GPS and/or WiFi is on, and the Diamond is constantly looking for a signal/connection?
Radio / Wifi / BT
Hi,
tanhks for reply!
Everthing off (Wifi / Bluetooth).
Only Phone is on and it conects to 3G when starting Browser.
But also with "EVERTGING" OFF" it heats the device.
Could you please post me how to change radio and to which one,
or a link to a thread ehre this is explaned?
Thank you,
Robert

Radio
Hi,
thnaks for the link!
I installed the new radio with the "geting hot" fix...
Now looking what hapens.
I turned on to charge over USB when connected,
but it seems to discharge in case of beeing connectedto USB..
Funny what???
What could this be?
Yours
Robert
Does not solve the heat problem
I did install the new radio as suggessted,
made a hard reset also,
but device is also getting hot.
Any iDeas what else i could be?
Yours Robert
Which is the part that's heating too much ( Eg. Lower back !! )
Which oart heats...
Backwards down under the battery, where the IM Card is insertet.
Seems to be a defect. On charging the dvice discharges... It seems to to like this.
Yours,
Robert
Addition:
If no SIM is insertet and no USB Cable is connected it doens not heat
Strange:
Usually heating is because of the following reasons -
1. Your GPS/Wifi is on
2. You're running Android
3. You're running too many applications
Check all this first.
If negative then it will be something with the radio.
Keep trying different radios ( although be careful not to flash a 2G radio onto a 3G one )
If this too fails , its something with the chip.
FYI , heating is kinda normal for all the diamonds , mine does heat sometimes but i dont take it as a big issue.
Try different radios . if that doesnt work then its a chip problem. My diamond too heats like crazy but im used to it now.

Not runnig android nor Wifi nor Bluetooth
Removed SimCard to use in a nother Handy to be able to talk to people without shutting down the Smartphone.
The other user which I phone to cannot understand me anymore, seems like the mic is going dead.
Applications is only the HTC Sense running, nothing else....
3G works, I set it to only go to 3G when requested by for eyample a browser.
But also without sim and without USB connection it heats....
The ROM is the original one from XDA....
I tried to download the Orange ROM from HTC Homepage but it does not accept my serialnumber of the Touch Diamond, I tried a million times.
Its courious....
I will sell it and get a Toshiba T01 with 1GHz and WM6.5 I am used to,
Do you have any better suggesstions for an smartphone with 3G (HSDPA), WLAN, Bluetooth, 640x800 resolution and WM 6.x?? I need it to connect to internet with the Intenet connection shing wizard on the HTC Diamond...
Bought my mummy a netbook with integrated SIM-Card Adapter and my old Internet SIM (512 MB free thzen slows down speed). I have now Orange wikth 1 GB free and paying for more, but I dont need it so very much that I come over 300 MB monthly....
Youts,
Robert
I will try some other radios.
What have I to do after a new Radio flash, a complete hardreset?
Whiuch german WM6.5 with HTC Sense can you recommend me, without very much programs. I need Google Maps, opera, ICS and long battery life, thats all..
Yours and thank you,
Robert
