Hey everyone,
for some reason my both my GPRS and 3G connections have stopped working since recently. I can't access the internet at all, not really sure about wi-fi connections, since I don't have on to try out. I'm not sure when it happened, I think somewhere saturday or sunday cause I've been flashing some different roms then. I'm now back on R2 Rhodium by uDK on which the internet worked perfectly before.
Any ideas?
Mines been going on and off randomly too, fixed by a softreset. Only thing is i haven't changed from the original ROM. Sorry i cant help but just sharing my exp.
Update to another firmware, or just wait for an update on your current update. Or try shuting down all running programs, and try to soft Reset. Cant help you past that. Good luck
My phone can't connect to my router even though everything is set up correctly and the SSID is on visible. It always says "Not in range. Remembered." ~~
However it can detect my neighbours router ?_? I had this problem on both versions experimental and stable but i can connect normally with any other rom. I really dont want to switch to another rom =/
Here some more infos:
Haykuros "DaNgEr" SPL
Cyanogen recovery 1.4
Cyanogen Rom 4.1.11.1
Running the same rom as you, but not the same spl. Hard spl is installed on mine. No issues what so ever with WiFi. I've never had WiFi issues with Cyanogen's, even with 4.0.4.
Yours is the exception I'd guess, not the rule.
I don't believe the ROM is the source of your problem.
Moved as not development.
As i said it detects Wi-Fi on any other rom also on my original nand backup. ~~
The 3G connection seems weeker too and i constantly get "connection lost please retry" msgs.
FWIW, when I run the same ROM and same SPL as you I don't have any WIFI problems (dlink router). I would try re-installing everything.
Re-Installed everything a couple of times but it still wont work ~~ Guess i have to wait for the next barebone stable lol.

Try MENU... SETTINGS...WIRELESS CONTROLS.......WI-FI SETTINGS....MENU....ADVANCED.....REGULATORY DOMAIN....
Try each setting to see if this helps. I had similar trouble and set to 14 it worked fine.
Good luck
YOU SIR ARE MY HERO!
Thank you very much Didn't knew that wi-fi had advanced settings tytytyty.
I had the exact same issue and just tried extending the regulatory domains...wouldn't have thought it would have made a difference or have any effect but it worked and found my router instantly. No idea why my router wasn't showing up in the first place but there ya go!
My wifi connects just fine, but the web only seems to work for Opera Mini, Facebook etc... but it won't work with Dolphin Browser, or downloads in the market place. The default browser works occasionally.
I can browse the marketplace, but when trying to download, it just says "Downloading..." then "Download Paused".
Everything worked on the stock ROM, and everything works fine when I'm using Cellular data. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Hi,
Ever since i upgraded to Xperia Radio 1.16, i've been experiencing a major issue with My Location function on multiple roms...it does not seem to update...does anyone have a solution for this or any troubleshooting ideas?
I tried the following:
- reflashed the old 1.14 and reflashed different roms...PROBLEM EXISTED
- reflashed the default spl and did a sony rom update to default rom, then reflashed spl and reflashed different roms...PROBLEM EXISTED.
- tried using googlemaps on each rom and then used My Location...PROBLEM EXISTED
- tried enabling/disabling My Location....PROBLEM EXISTED
- tried enabling aGPS/disabling aGPS....PROBLEM EXISTED
- tried combination both 1.16 + 1.14 rilphone....PROBLEM EXISTED
- tried adding my home town in my location and tried updating, it updates only the towns i put and not the My Location one....which i think is using data to update and my location uses either gps or agps....PROBLEM EXISTED
I think its either i fried something in the firmware where the aGPS is located...or since i flashed the radio without unlocking the xperia it might have corrupted it ?? Do we need to unlock the xperia before updating the radio?
Any one with ideas, please?
Thanks.
state which ROMs your having the problem with, i don't believe you have to unlock your phone. and if all your other "phone" functions work then i don't think the radio is your problem. also do you hard reset after each ROM flash? try that too. is this only over Data connection or is it via wi-fi too etc.
Sorry,
I've tried the following roms, with a hard reset even sometimes i did it twice.
Valkyrie v.5.5 21889 & 21885
EnergyRom Leo & Phoenix both 21889
Touch-IT BL Landscape 21889
I thought it was only with these new versions (21889) and tried a rom (EnergyRom Phoenix 21885 Dec 14th) which i had My Location working before the radio update the first time...it was working fine....but now i am using it on a daily basis and it has this problem, it just wont update...only rarely if i play around with settings and reset the xperia, it might work but 85% time it fails....
All other functions work...
i have not tried it over Wifi...i have 6GB data plan on Rogers Wireless Canada...it use to work with it on this same rom with radio 1.14, which is what i am on now....i never went back to 1.16 after the problem started!
thx for your help....
have you started google maps service for once? my location is part of google service, once you connect gsm to your provider, run google maps, click to agree their terms and condition, you are set.
yeah i did...tried that long time ago because i found it on one of the threads....still doesn't connect...on occasion it mite...but 85% it wont.....how does the My Location pull the information data? or aGPS? or GPS alone....
I'm using TouchX 10.9.1 "Nuts!", which supports the my location service. I'm having no trouble at all with the location service with radio version 1.16.25.48, so I would suggest your problem exists elsewhere.

what i thought is that once you connect to gsm provider, it will give your bts location which this info then fed to google maps service, hence weather info on that location. If you're going somewhere, weather info will be updated based on where your position at that time.
But i might be wrong ...try it - it is important that you click to agree during google map service setup.
yeah....i flashed the ROM then did a hard reset...then waited until the Connection wizard finished....then went to Googlemaps...agreed to all the information...even used gps function to locate me on the map. Then closed it and went to weather tab and hit update....it just updates the default cities and fails on My Location.....
I did not try WM 6.1 Roms just because i dont like it...but if it works on it i might try it later...and let you know...thank you for the information
Not a fan of 6.1? Personally I find 6.5.x to be comparatively unstable (After trying various roms, valkyrie, touch-it BL LS, etc, after recieving multiple crashes and/or reboots per day. MrRusch's TouchX 10.9.1 "Nuts!" is stable beyond any reasonable expectation, it's fast, and it's freakin' sexy.
Exact same problem started occuring for me just after midnight yesterday. Everything was working fine beforehand. I am using 1.16 /1.14 DLL and Valkyrie 5.5 23518
Same problem with 3G, fine with GPRS/EDGE
same problem in Touch X Nuts version with WM 6.1....the rom is very fast though and simple.... Something to note though is that it doesn't even come with Googlemaps pre-installed and the weather update worked and then stopped...after a reset...
issue could be in the cell tower you are connecting to. I have similar issue here - I am in Toronto, when I am at home, my phone initially thinks I am in downtown Montreal (until GPS taxes fix). That does not happen once I step into another cell tower (location works fine everywhere else). This started happening couple of months ago during the night. Similar experience to poster above. I suspect it is due to misconfigured stuff in the cell tower that serves me.
ok..i think its true about this tower problem...its been happening recently as well ever since Rogers started using HSDPA for their data connections in Ontario....i live in Hamilton Ontario....whenever i update using HSDPA i SOMETIMES get MY Location to point to ONTARIO but never to Hamilton..but on trying the above users tip (Switching to EDGE/GPRS) it seems to work 100% of the time with 100% accuracy...it says Hamilton...i just cant use EDGE here because its killing my battery....anyone have a solution to turn off EDGE like you can turn HSDPA off in the tweaks...i tried using the registry hack & tweaking using HD Tweak but neither work.....
Thank you guys for solving this issue...i hope ROGERS fixes their tower issue or we get an update to our phones that can make it work with HSDPA...
THX
I'm gonna suggest something, thats probably been tried.
Run QuickGPS and get the latest satellite info and try to update my location again.
Hi TS. I believe this is a problem that exist in WM6.5.3 ROMs... I tested a few and I was facing the same problem as u. Once I reverted back to older roms... my location we shown properly...
the My Location feature, has NOTHING to do with GPS.
It uses Cell location ID that finds your location based on where you are in proportion to the Mobile phone Tower(s?) your connected to. then this gets fed into Google which gives it a location to search
On some of the newer roms (Valkyrie being amongst them) you have to enable location service as it is not on by default. Just click weather tab and then menu and then enable the service.

LOL. Thanks for figuring out that I'm not nuts. I was alternatively getting locations in downtown Toronto or downtown Montreal for no rhyme or reason. Good to know that Ancaster is still near Hamilton and not in Quebec.
I am using Valkyrie ROM, and I have the same problem: cannot update my location in this ROM via GPRS or 3G, but I can still suft Web smoothly via 3g or GPRS and update location via Wifi.
Can anyone solve this problem?
Hi all,
I've had SGS for over 8 months now on O2 Contract, UK. Currently running on Darkys Rom. Everything was great until yesterday morning the mobile internet has suddenly stopped working!
I've tried everything; Re-setting the correct APN manually, Switch on/off, Taking battery out. Called O2 & and tried to reset with their assistant but none of it worked. The network seems to be up and running fine on their side.
The symtoms are; I do have the 3G icon on the bar (Displaying 'H'), since I usually get a good strong signal in my area. The problem is, when I start the browser, the google.co.uk webpage works ok-ish. But for any other sites, doesn't work. Can't access email or facebook or anyother internet related apps. All connections fail.
I have other O2-Simcard. And when I try to use internet on my SGS, the same problem occurs. (Websites load less than half and everything stops) The sim cards work fine in my other phone.
Could this be a hardware problem?
I didn't drop or anything, I've been taking a real good care
Somebody please, please help!, Please.
You say Google works therefore internet works .Errors are possibly elsewhere in settings .
Worth doing a factory reset after backing up data to see if that clears the problem .
As its yet another Darky rom problem i suggest asking Darky if above fails .
Hardware probably not blame the rom or settings first .
You will have to remove the rom if you need to make a warranty claim .
jje
I agree with JJ, this sounds like a ROM/Settings problem. If you can get Google, then your hardware is fine. An Antenna failure is usually all or nothing.
Maybe check in Settings/Wireless and Network/Wireless Network Settings/Network Mode and make sure it is still in Auto mode, or switch to 3G only?
As a last resort, flash to a stock rom and see if the problem goes away.
Thanks, guys! JJEgan & rschenck.
Network mode has always been Auto mode & I tried all options but no luck..
The thing is, the 3g internet has always worked fine with Darky Rom. It's just that this happned all of sudden.
I guess I'll try factory reset first, if it doesn't work, I'll then flash to stock rom.. Glad to hear it probably won't be the antenna failure.
I'll keep posted after I try!
Hi guys, I'm still at work so haven't had a chance to do anything.
But magically! I've just put my other (PAYG) O2 simcard and the internet now works! However, still not as good as before. (Slightly laggy)
I was using Darkys 9.3 when the internet stopped working properly, so I upgraded to 9.5 hoping that it would fix the problem, but no help.
Since that it's working now. It seems internet connections is slower than when I had 9.3. Well, at least it works now. (Kind of)
My WiFi keeps disconnecting every now and then randomly and I have tried many things and still no luck.
I have:
N.O.P.E kernel 2.6 on 750MHz OC
MiniCM10 V8 clean flash
Here is what happens, After I connect to the router the phone pings correctly immediately after I start using internet (with any app) the connection drops after a few seconds.
The weird part that I have screenshoted with WiFi analyzer:
One screenshot is before I connect to the SLR-DSL2 and the other one is after I have connected to the router. Second one shows no signal change which is not normal of course.
And the third screen shot shows ping responses from my phone, before and after connection.
I have tried Wifi Keep Alive but it just *sometimes* reconnects the broken connection. (Option 3 & 4)

Sorry to say this but I have tried it with no luck. Maybe you've prejudged because I didn't mention it!
Well after a few days of struggle and testing different ROMs and Kernels, I managed to fix the WiFi issue by restoring the Stock HTC Rom then factory reset and installing Prometheus Sense4 Kernel.
The issue was really annoying and nothing could fix it. I tried MiniCM on Nope and Prometheus with no luck. Even RevolutionMod roms on android 4 had the issue.
Anyway with my phone config is almost stable and WiFi rocks as it should be . But the UI (HTC) is not fluent as it was on Cm10
