TYTN II WiFI would not activate

Friends,
I've been proud of my TYTN II for the last thre months that I've owned it... until recently though.
Last week, my WiFi connection stopped getting activated/swichted on. Howsoever, I may try, it would not get activated, leave alone discover the network.
I tried re-flashing it, soft-resetting, hard-resetting, I mean practically everything I could, but to no avail.
Has anyone faced this problem before, and found a solution to the same. Would appreciate if you could share the same with me. I really do not want to take it for servicing, as I fear it would take me easily a week to get it back if I take it to the Workshop.
Thanks in advance,
Atul

Let me ask a couple of questions.
Can you turn wifi on or do you get an error?
If wifi turns on does it see any access points?
have you flashed your rom on your phone?
have you tried another access point for wifi?
do you have any wifi applications installed like wififofum?

Hi Chumley,
thanks for the prompt response...
I do not get any error, not even any message hen I try to activate the WiFi. Just that the rainbow circle keeps rotating (hour-glass equivalent of indows), and then shows the WiFi is still inactive (small x near the WiFi icon).
I tried re-flashig with the latest ROM available on the HTC website, but to no avail.
Trying another access point does not help either, neither would it, I guess, since its not a problem of signal strength, as much as it seems to be of the Wireless on the Kaiser not getting activated.
No 3rd party applications installed either, after the last re-flashing, still no luck.
Anything from the above, that rings a bell?

If it does it after a flash I would think you have a defective wireless adapater. Sorry.

Guess it should not be a problem as mine is still under warranty... just abt. 3 months old. But my only worry is, as I mentioned in the original post, the time it would tk. to get it fixed by the Service Centre, or if at all it is a correctible problem... I think time to ask for a favour from a friend... a standby mobile while I await mine back

If you let it go free and it comes back, then it's yours forever.

Hello, same problem here:
two days ago my wifi connection stopped suddenly and cannot activate it from the comm manager. When I click in the WIFI Icon, rainbow circle keeps rotating and PDA perfomance goes down.
any ideas :?

Hueznar,
I've already given mine for repair at Service Centre two days back, and am still awaiting it back.
Shall let you know how it goes once I get it back

WiFi would not activate: Motherboard concked off
My PDA motherboard conked off... and it wud take 3 weeks to get it back with a new motherboard !!

Oh My God !!

@ Iatul
Are you sure this is the only reason & solution, for I have an IDENTICAL matter of the problem, but I never thought something was wrong with the HardWare..., damn I love HTC
I know I saw this thread too late (and finally) but if you please could respond with any news?
thanx

I'm not sure what is wrong with my Wifi...need help
I don't know why...really.
The comm manager stays on good, but when I try an access point it starts with the Connecting... then after a few seconds it stops and goes Unavailable.
My router works good with my bros and sis MAC books.
So I have no idea why.
Can anyone help?

ssid? is this in the router menu?

So.. I tried what you said and didn't worked.
I think it has to be something set in the edit options...
Could you help me?

yeah ssid is the id for the wireless network
i'm not sure why it worked for me... should'nt have made a difference.
have you tried different wireless channels on the router?
increase the power output?
sorry man i don't really know enough about it but happy to try.. pm me if i can answer your question i will

looks like this guy had a similar problem... have you tried what he did?

Wifi access point problem
I had a problem where suddenly after months of use with my home wifi router, it suddenly would not connect with the router anymore. Would show that it was trying to connect, and then would suddenly not connect and try another router on the list.
I tried reseting and everything. Tried re-entering the password for my router as I thought that was the problem. finally the only fix i found to work was to actually delete the access point from the phone... then reset and then let it find it all over again from scratch. And miraculously that time it worked.
I know this is not exactly your problem, but hope it helps.

By changing it to channel 1 in my router, it kinda worked..
It says Available now. Nothing else... The connect option it still there button left.
That's my update.
just in case letting you know that I disabled all MEdia net and ISP GPRS so I won't get charged because I'm not paying for my onlince services or any mobile plan with internet.
My brother told me that all WIFI connects directly to internet and it won't matter if I don't have a plan for mobile.
Correct me here, if im wrong.
Thanks.

Can't make or receive calls

I just bought this phone off of a kid at school and I can't make or receive calls, so does anyone know how to fix this. Or what I would need to search because I couldn't find anything

first off dont do "that" you get in trouble real quick with so many dup-threads
if you know anything about flashing the radio, connect the phone to your computer and update the radio, read the wiki it should help
and btw this should work, let me know, i'm excited

My Att Tilt, seems to have problems with keeping the signal, Ej, im at my room, perfect signal, then suddenly, the signal goes away and never come back, till I push the reset button on the phone. The phone was windows 6.0, then I upgrade to a newer windows 6.0 , and then upgrade it to windows 6.1, but still the same problems
I download those upgrades at the HTC webpage, cause the ATT guy told me to do it...
Anything i can do?

If your phone attaches to a 3G signal and then none at all you need to warranty exchange it for a new one if possible. I spent months trying to find a fix for that and nothing ever worked on the 2 tilts that had the problem.

Disabling data connection from service provider TROUBLES

Hey guys I am sorry if this has been covered before but I can't find it. I have an unlocked euro diamond but I'm using rogers as my service provider. I have wifi at home but when im away from home I don't want the diamond to connect to rogers data connection at all but from time to time it says its on. How do I make it so that I can use the data connection when I want to manually but at the same time automatically not connect to data from rogers?

Do a search for 'no data' it will allow you to control your data connections

do a search on this forum? Nothing really comes up with what I need.

I have a euro diamond on Rogers now aswell
I find this way works to disable data connection
All Setter --> Connections ---> Connections
once you in there see if you have anything rogers related, if yes just delete that set up (you prob let the phone set it up for you when you first start up your phone in Toronto)
as long as you don't set up a connection in that tab. It will never connect to any E and G

is this something I have to plug into like active sync to see or is it in the phone. I cant find anything called allsetter, thanks so much for helping though

it's on the phone.. slider the botton menu to Settings
THen in there bottom left there is a tab that says All Settings. Hit that then once you there.. you will see Personal, System, Connections on the bottom. Tap the Connection Tap, once you there.. you should see an icon that says Connections. Hit that also.
After that it will show all your current set up data transfer network. If you see one there. Delete it then it should be ok.
If you got more problems just continue posting here, I need to head out for a bball game will come back afterwards to help if you still need

Oh actually I see it and i deleted the rogers internet in manage settings its working nice thanks! But when im out of wifi range this means i cant update at all liek weather or anything. So what I just did disabled the E and G connection but my phone radio connection to rogers still works and everything related to data will work with wifi? Thank you so much big bro!

yes correct. now you can only update if you are in a WiFi region. If you are not then you just can't update data but your phone will still work cause that is another separate setting.
Next time if you don't want data connection, remember NOT to allow the phone auto setup internet connection setting (usually after it finishes configuring the phone setting).
Glad i can help!

The thing is that yes you are right, but when my phone comes out of stand by theres a G and then it goes into wifi after 2 seconds. Do you know why? Is it using data?

displaying G or E or H is just letting you know what kind of signal the phone can pick up.. as long as the reception bars icon does not have a G or E or H or 3G beside and has an antenna sort of thing beside the bars then you are ok.
I'm assuming it turns to WiFi right away because you have WiFi on right? Turn WiFi off and tell me if the same thing happens

yes and it makes sense thanks haha im just so new to this smartphone stuff. I want to make it run faster and better with rom updates and stuff but theres so much content i don't know where to begin. I want to do it myself but I don't want to mes it up. I just gotta learn from all of you. Thanks a lot bigbro!

what do you mean by changing view option?

i was just toggling with the view options under menu when your in contacts. It wont let me back in all people or contacts unless I restart phone. All these people were moved over from rogers sim.

not sure about this. But I'm assuming it's a ROM issue.
Are you still using stock ROM? cause when i got this phone the stock ROM was VERY slow and buggy.

yes I am lol i would like to change it but im so newb. When you have time could you help me through it?

Im going to sleep and look at the tutorial/guides tmrw and ill msg u if i need help =p. GN thanks a million

well all the ROM thread under the ROM Development section has all the instruction to how to flash a new ROM. Just REMEMBER to flash a HARD-SPL before you do any ROM updates or else it will brick your phone (dead phone)
My suggestion for ROM would be the dutty one. Been using it for the last 2 months and his ROM are clearly one of the best available out there.
The link for newest dutty ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411707
I'm using his V3.6 FINAL (you can find it on dutty's website) not the V4 on his thread, but the instruction of flashing a new ROM is exactly the same, it has step by step instructions there for you to follow or you can go here for the instructions: http://lievenvw.wordpress.com/2008/09/18/howto-flash-your-htc-diamond-or-htc-touch-pro-with-a-custom-rom/
Hope this helps

Can I Use a Hero Without Activating It?

I have a quick question hopefully somebody can answer.
I want to pick up a used HTC Hero (I found a good deal on one) but don't want to activate it to my cellular account. The only thing I want to do is use it on a Wi-Fi network for software testing. Can the Hero be used without first activating it to my cellular account (I know some phones such as the Pre pretty much require the phone to be activated to an account the first time you start it up from a factory reset)?
Thanks in advance.

Yeah you can use it without activating it. Only thing is it's gonna ask you if you wanna activate it pretty much everytime you reboot it (just click cancel). There's a way around it but I honestly don't remember off hand.

if you figure out a way to use voice and data without activating please let me know ! id like to save $1200 a year.

Thanks Asadullah.

I'm not going to mess with that at all. I just want a fairly modern Wi-Fi only Android device for testing.

Yes you cant definately do this I have ag1 one that I use to f around with and its not activated. If you run a custom rom you will not be asked to provision it and even if you are you can do it over wifi. You can use google voice and gmail to make calls with out ever having a phone connection, of course it will only work if you have a wifi connection.
Just google android setup with no service, alot of people have done this with there old g1's

[Q] Extending Wifi

First of all I'd like to apologize if this question has been answered.
I did do some searching around but didn't quite trust my finds since they we're on different phones/forums/etc.
My question is:
Is there any possible way to use my phone as a Wifi Extender or something similar?
I am trying to find a way to use my phone as a temporary "mimic router" for use on a different device.
My problem is the device I want to connect only accepts WEP, but I don't want to mess with my current router settings just for 1 or 2 devices.
Can my T-Mo Moto X be used as an extender.

Why not just use wireless tether? I think that should be sufficient. also I'm sure you know but making your phone tether or an access point kills the battery. You should just bite the bullet.. upgrade those wifi settings!! lol

I only have this phone for calls, barely got any Data service on it, maybe 500mb. I got a SGH-T989 also looking into making that as a temp "router"

I see. hmmmm.... well a quick google search just showed me some potential solutions for you. maybe give those a read and maybe you'll have your answer
p.s. some android phone can USB tether a wireless network they're connected too when a SIM card is removed or if you place a non working SIM card in.
Hope you get those devices connected! :laugh:
