Wifi not completely working

A little background on my phone:
T-Mobile G1 USA, black
2300mAh battery
Amon_Ra's Recovery
CyanogenMod5 Test 6
Newest Radio
DangerSPL (Hayukos, however it's spelled)
Launcher Pro
Ok, so here's the issue:
A while back my Wifi stopped working completely. I flash my phone a couple times a month, every couple of months. I get bored and look for a good ROM every so often but once I find one I like I stick with it for a few months.
If I can coincide Wifi issues with a ROM, it would have to be KingKlick's 2.1 Espresso, but I'm not positive on that and I can't blame it on one ROM, at least I don't think so. It doesn't work with ANY ROM since around that time when I flashed that ROM (about 3-4 months back).
Since I flashed Super D 1.1x and up it works for about a minute or two and then I get an error saying there's no connection in the browser, Youtube, etc. It's doing this with CM5.0.7 test X.
I've done complete wipes of the phone through Amon_Ra's recovery, Data, Dalvik, EXT, battery, rotate... reflashed fresh ROMs... won't fix it.
I don't see how this could be a ROM issue at all, since it's across different 1.6 and different 2.1 ROMs. I also don't see how it could be a hardware issue since it works for a minute or two then stops.
So could this be a radio issue... or an SPL issue? I don't know exactly what those are, so I couldn't say. Would flashing the radio again fix the issue? Any help or suggestions is appreciated.

Download an application called "wifi fixer" from market. It seems to fix issues like this. Just a chance, though.

Strangely, I started having the same problem a few weeks ago. Wifi only works from a few minutes, to a few seconds. If I stream some music, it may last all night. Next to playing around with apps, I have not re-flashed my G1 at all. I found setting a static IP sometimes helps.
Trying wifi fixer now.

Downloaded it... doesn't work!
It seems to stay connected about another minute or two longer, but that's it. The app itself is really laggy and I keep getting a Not Responding error when trying to pop up the menu to get the logging to work.
When I finally get the menu to pop up I have no clue how to even get logging to work, there's the button for it but I have no clue if red/green is on or off. The pop up "Enable Logging"/"Disable Logging" doesn't really explain it well. I have no clue if it's saying I did enable or disable. And I have no clue where it saves the file.
Thanks for the suggestion though. And I don't know if it's T-Mobile, but my internet in general isn't working right now. 3G shows several bars but it won't load ****... I've had this problem before when T-Mobile was just the issue for a few hours.

Sorry, fixed my issues without any problems when I had them. =[ I don't know why it's so buggy for you, worked like a dream and that was the only reason I suggested it. Sorry to offer false hop. =[ I can't really be of much more assistance.

Intermittent Phone/Data Connection, stock or custom, help, logcat?

Figured I'd ask this one to the community to see WTF is going on with my phone. Just curious if anyone has witnessed or has any clue to what my phone's issue is. This is a bit long, but needed to show this isn't just some setting issue:
Issue:
- Intermittently connects to Network, when working get both phone and data connections
- Connection lasts anywhere from 1-15 min.
- When data and phone connections are lost, they still appear normal/active in status bar, when view "status" in settings, shows my network connected, Rogers, not roaming, Connected to network state, Service State "In Service, blah blah....
- Sometimes, status bar icons show normal, but status in settings actually shows disconnected or connecting, this happens less often then the case above
One weird Incident:
- Was golfing one day, using GPS Golf app, all of a sudden phone shutoff (never happened before). After a panicky 20min. of pulling the battery, and watching the screen, nothing would happen. Finally, it powered on, and booted as normal. My connection issue seemed to come right after this incident occurred.
Attempts to fix software:
- Full wipe on custom ROM - no change
- flash radio(s) - no change
- flash stock ROM - no change (then root, flash custom ROM...no change)
- WTF????
Sent back to HTC for repairs
- My final option was to send my phone back to HTC. 1 week later, I get my phone back, same phone, flashed by HTC, and locked bootloader. Powered on, made a couple of quick calls, 10min later, issue was back. called HTC back, long story short, told I have to send it back again, and there was no problem found on the service report.
This is where I am at right now, does anyone have any ideas, similar experience? I am going to hold off for a couple of days before sending it off again, i am an electronics technologist myself, and find it hard to believe this could be a h/w issue, but I have no more software/partitions to flash that I haven't tried.
If there is anyone knowledgeable enough reading this, I have the logcat files, from what I can understand of it, when the my calls fail, "CallNotifier: DISCONNECT"..."CallNotifier" Cause: ERROR_UNSPECIFIED". There might be more in the log file that I don't understand.

[Q] Input Issues and Data Connection Drops

Hey there.
I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 Active on the AT&T network. Recently, I've been plagued by a number of troubles.
Bit of background:
For a while, I had the most bizarre issue: the screen thought I was touching it when I wasn't, near the bottom-middle of the screen, and would attempt to open/click on anything in that area. Often turning the screen on and off would help, for a little while. I was reaching my wits' end, because that would obviously be very frustrating to someone who uses their phone frequently throughout the day.
I thought maybe it had been new software I had installed, so I did a factory reset. Problem remained. I factory reset with NO backups. Problem remained. I updated to 4.4.2 via OTA. Problem remained...
And then mysteriously went away on its own.
I've been working in tech for a decade now, mainly in PC and server architecture, so I know better than to look a gift horse in the mouth - but I also know better than to think a problem that "mysteriously" goes away is gone for good. So the first part of my question: does anyone know what could have possibly been causing this?
I'm not super phone-savvy. I've rooted and flashed a few phones in the past couple years, but I'm by no means developer-level.
---------------------
Which brings me to my next problem... around the time that this issue went away, another one cropped up. Randomly, my phone will stop sending/receiving texts/calls, and the data connection will not function. This will continue until I turn on airplane mode and turn it off--at that point I receive all my missed texts, and it works again... sometimes for 5 minutes, sometimes for nearly 2 days. It's really frustrating. I've tried factory resets, I've tried restoring default APNs... but I'm at my wit's end with this. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

I should add that, with my last issue, it still shows a data connection in the notification bar - but there is none, or at least, no activity on it. It doesn't simply act as if it's in airplane mode and go "wah no data network" as soon as I try using it--it just simply hangs for ~30 seconds, then times out. Messages don't get received, webpages don't load, calls don't get placed, etc.

[Q] Freeze when dialing

Hello all,
i spent quite some time researching my issue and found out that there is a bunch o people with this problem. The downside is, none of the recomended fixes seem to work.
Description: I recently got a S4 active i9295 with stock rom. Everything clean, nothing custom on it(i belive). For a couple of hours it worked like a charm, then, when i want to call someone, the transition from contacts to dialing screen lags a bit and then it goes into dialing and thats about it. Nothing else happens from there on. I loose signal and it keeps showing that it dials (i let it like this for about 15 minutes and nothing happend). I cannot end the call, it remains stuck in "dialing" mode, i can use all the other functions though. After a restart it works again. Same goes for sending SMS. The icon spins and spins but never sends the SMS, only after a reboot. Also when someone calls me, they get a "no answer" signal and my phone just looks ok, like normal standby but when i want to call back, it freezes at dialing.
I tried 3-4 different stock 4.4.2 roms, hard reset, wipe/clear cache, safe mode... It works fine for 15-20 calls/2-3 hours and then it does it again. After that point it only gets worse and it happens more frequently.
Any ideas on what could cause this or how to permanently fix it? Unfortunately, returning the phone is not really an option.
Thanks to all, best regards.

[Q] Radio shuts off for ten seconds after every call

I'm running 4.3 rooted on ML2, stock ROM. Within the last week I started experiencing a strange problem - after every single phone call made or received, I lose all network connection for about ten seconds. I get the circle with the line through it. Going into settings shows actual connection drop, not just the icon. Then, the connection reappears. I've made no modifications since rooting it in April, nor do I recall removing or freezing any apps any time recently. Powering down and/or removing the battery has done nothing to help.
Any ideas what would cause this? I can't find any threads here, or through a google search, discussing this problem. Any help is appreciated.
Update - same problems when running in safe mode.

Well, this seems to have been a local network problem, as the issue has magically disappeared. Nothing exciting to report.

Remove SIM card and clean?

Yep - did every trick in the book. Even reflashed via Odin to be sure I didn't have a corrupted radio file. It just started working again. I"ve seen the same problem reported in other parts of the country, apparently the result of something AT&T was doing to the network.
