Kaiser WiFI Problems + Unresponsive Touch Screen? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi guys, I am new to this forum.
Problem #1
I recently just traded my Samsung Impression for my brother's AT&T Tilt.
When I got it, I see that when I connect to my WiFI network at home it works fine and says that it successfully connects. However, after about a minute of browsing the internet on WiFI, the connection drops. Windows still says that it is connected to my WiFI network, but when I try to access a webpage, it does not work.
I have done many things: including resets, ROM flashes, Android installation, other browsers..but in the end I still have the same problem!
I don't know if anybody else has this problem, but when I called AT&T they told me my warranty expired a couple days ago :[.
That's problem number 1
Problem #2.
Recently, I have been seeing that whenever I slide out the keyboard, the touch screen does not function, whatsoever. When I slide it back in again, it works fine, but not slid out. I am thinking that there is a loose connection somewhere? I have also performed many resets with no luck. I have even restored to the stock OS and it is still giving me a problem.
If anybody can help, please post!
By the way, currently I am running Ultimate X2-V11 Premium ROM with Windows Mobile Professional 6.5
Thanks!

For problem 1... try:
Settings> System> Advanced settings> Network> and then changing the wifi timeout time or switching it off entirely.
For #2 it does sound like a loose/severed connection. Maybe you can use the disassembly guide in the stickies and have a look for anything loose inside.

BIG WIFI troubles

I purchased my TYTN II a week ago today, but did not get around to moving my sim over from my Trinity until last friday. when i did everything went well, it synced fine and i got all my data over from my Trin. It wasn't until i came to use the wifi that i noticed a problem! I turned on wifi in comm manager and it quickly found my router (British Telecom HomeHub). I launched IE and the HTC default page came up, so i changed it to google. Then i tried to go to one of the pages from my favorites, but all i get is a message saying "THIS PAGE CAN NOT BE FOUND" or it just times out! so i tried typing in the page and got the same result. So i checked the settings/connections/wifi and compared them to the settings on my Trin. Everthing was fine, though the Trin did have a stronger signal than the T II. So then i checked wireless Lan and all of the settings seemed o.k.
So today i called HTC u.k. to explain the problem, and to be honest the guy i spoke to was quite helpfull. they are going to investagate the problem and get back to me, i HOPE!
Has anyone else had this problem? if so could you please let me know asap so i can let HTC know i'm not the only one.
and one other thing, has anyone else had that stupid charger with there phone?
look forward to any replies
So, is the problem that one phone has a better WiFi signal than the other?
i wish
No it's not. it seems that the T II has a problem with the actual wireless radio, as it won't even download my emails through wifi
Either your WiFi radio isn't working, or you have a configuration issue. Config wise it could be any number of issues: proxy, router, security, etc. I mean, it could be a defective phone. but not knowing how proficient you are with networking, and it being a new phone to you, it could be config issue.
maybe
i did check all the conection settings next to my Trin, and all seems fine. there is another post here titled WIFI DOA i think maybe that guy may have a simular issue
Just FYI, my WiFi grabs email and access the NET, it does it all just fine.
I also switch between 2-5 routers per day and it latches onto every router with no intervention rom me.
reset
I've even done a H/R and numerous S/R and still no joy
If you are sure it is setup correctly, send it back for a replacement. I have no troubles with an almost OUT OF THE BOX setup.
I also have a problem with the wifi, sometime its work and other no response.
I can get the IP but I am not able to browse using IE.
when I am still using Eten M700 I naver have this problem, and i use it very often.
I never need to change the wifi setting.
The error message sounds like a proxy configuration issue. It might be that your router is running in a mode that needs you to set up a proxy, or it might be that you have a proxy configured on the PDA which is incorrect.
You can probably get more help here if you paste the exact configuration information from the PDA, and some configuration information from whatever computer you have and that connects correctly to the Internet through the router. Of course do not include the passwords ;-)
I had exactly the same problem with my new last week TyTN II.
I read this fix from another forum and my wifi now connects perfectly, displays any web page and downloads my emails.
Within settings go to connections, then wireless LAN, within W Lan go to power mode and change the settings from best battery to best performance.
All should now be well.

Installed and Uninstalled "WeFI" and now my WiFi won't auto connect.

Hello Everyone.
I'm new to the forum and this is my first post, although have been reading and applying a lot of knowledge you guys have! the forum is great!
Anyway, I have an unlocked HTC TyTN II, everything worked fine and I overall very satisfied with the device...
I made a foolish thing! I installed the "Wefi" utility and after playing with it for a little while, I didn't like the thing.. so, I decided to uninstall it.. however, now I find that my kaiser cannot longer connect automatically to my wireless networks after resume.. Now I only get the notification that it has found available wireless networks and, even though I chose not to show the message anymore, it does it every time, and when it does not, the phone doesn't connect to my WiFi.. so I need to do it manually... which is very annoying..
I already restored original registry keys under HLM\Comm\TNETW12511\Parms with no luck so far...
What can I do?... I'm still on the original WM 6.0, have not loaded any ROM changes yet..
Your help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Fix for auto connect problem after removing WeFi
My name is Galia Finkelstein and I work at the support desk at WeFi. This doesn't happen anymore on the new version that's been released so for the older version we have a version fix for the problem with the automatic connection, just run this file and you should be good to go http://wefi.com/static/RestoreZCAutoConnect.exe
If I can assist with anything else please drop me a line at [email protected].
WeFi post-uninstall problems
Hi!
I am sufferring from the same problems as "obadillo" - see above.
I downloaded and installed the latest version of WeFi, but after a couple of days of use, I found that I didn't like it, and it also took up too much of my valuable "today" screen space.
After uninstalling, I found that firstly, all my previous wi-fi settings had been lost (WEP keys for my home network, my work network etc etc), and secondly, even after re-enterring these details, my device (HTC Touch UK Version - Orange UK) - (running WM6 Pro) refused to auto-connect when I switch the WiFi on.
After reading the reply from Galia (directly above my post), I downloaded and ran the executable, but found that it made no difference.
Any ideas anyone? I did email Wefi's support email address, but as yet have received no reply.
Thanks in advance!
I have also tried this fix with no success (running WM5). I have also sent an email to wefi support. No response. I would recommend you stay away from this software.
We-Fi Latest Version
I have found a (kind of) solution! I have installed the latest version of We-Fi (downloaded from their website), and then DEselected it in my Today programs. So even though its not in use, its wifi parameters still overrule the PPCs local params. This seems to allow me to switch on and off WiFi WITHOUT using the WeFi software, and it now autoconnects, even with the several wireless networks I have stored, whenever I switch WiFi on, it may take a few seconds to connect, but it now does every time.
Not the greatest "solution", but at least the problem is partially solved.
But as the good man above says, unless you're VERY sure you want to install WeFi, do not install, because you will lose ALL preexisiting WiFi connections and settings etc..
Have a good one!

Hello again, XDA devs!
I also had the problem and I'm struggling with Amir, some guy from the WeFi staff, to get the problem solved or at least recognized.
I left a complete description on my blog with links to people having problems. Here's the article (without links):
Before you consider installing WeFi on your Windows Mobile device, you might want to read this cautiously and save yourself some problems.
If you have not yet tried it, you're not missing much. Although promising, the app takes over your device. It controls your today screen, messes up your wi-fi parameters and some rarer stability issues were also reported.
First, the app needs .Net CF v.2.0, something that takes space and puts more useless crap on your device. Then the app doesn't just find networks and connect to them. Instead it overrides your wi-fi parameters and inserts its own code, thus the uninstallation problems. WeFi also takes a lot of your today screen's estate for basically nothing. How much screen space? Take a look.
Upon uninstalling it, many noticed their devices stopped automatically connecting to wireless networks, among other, rarer problems. The only known fix to the problem is to hard-reset your device and to stay the **** away from this app. We also saw a link to a .exe file somewhere but no one left feedback about it so we assume it's just as good as WeFi. You might also reinstall it, hide it and use it to take care of the wi-fi stuff or go in Settings>Connections>Wi-Fi everytime to select a network to connect to.
The developers were quick to comment about the problem and said they are working on it (see the first comment to this post). However their product page doesn't mention the problem yet and people still get caught. I left them feedback about *some* of the concerned device, assuming it's not all of them, hoping for a change. Feel free to do the same and put some pressure on these guys too.
You might also read one of those threads and see for yourself.

I'm trying to get the warning to reach all the download spots, if you guys feel like helping. This is just unacceptable, let's do something about it!
Haim head of WeFi Windows Mobile development team here
Hello all,
First, let me assure you all that we are doing our best to solve any user problem as quickly as possible.
Out of the thousands of mobile users we have, there are really only a few users who complained about this problem.
We released a fix that you can find in: http://www.wefi.com/download/client/RestoreZCAutoConnect.exe
which after executing and doing soft reset should solve the problem.
As our support team explained to “primemaps” via e-mails (sent in 08/07) this fix only works if you uninstall WeFi first.
What you are all describing is that ZeroConfig stopped auto connecting.
By avoiding the manipulation of ZeroConfig default timeouts in our next version (which should be released in about 2 weeks from now), this should not happen anymore.
If this does not help you or you have encountered any other problem – please send me an email to [email protected] and I promise a fast response,
it would help if you mentioned your WeFi version, Device model and ActiveSync version.
I hope you would all choose to install our next version and enjoy the many benefits it can bring you.

Can't work with it and can't work without it
With my HTC TyTN II I had similar problems as others have described, or maybe even worse: I could no longer work to any wireless networks. It would disconnect in less than one second every time.
I did a hard reset and that didn't work!
I also tried the "fix" the WeFi representative suggested but that didn't help at all either.
What finally helped me was Namwollem's solution: Install WeFi again and removed it from the Today screen (but kept it installed).
I can't help wonder if WeFi changes something in the ROM since a hard reset didn't even fix it.
One of these days I will have to install the ROM all over and see if it makes a difference, but I wish I could avoid that!
I hope others won't be stupid like me and install this #$%[email protected]#&$ software!
Nothing helps for my Diamond to restore Wifi signal
I have Htc diamond with newest Rom downloaded from htc.com.
My problem is that since i installed aplication WEFI(older version) and uninstalled it, i cannot see ANY available wifi networks.. I tried alot of things. I tried soft reset, hard reset, i installed WEFI (newest version) , in moments wifi works and shows available networks and i can connect, but after it doesnt work again.. I would say it shows networks only ocasionally(even if im always surrounded by at least 10 hotspots). I installed newest Rom again, i installed old official ROM, i always put mamximum performance instead of battery, and still i have no results/cannot see ANY available networks). I have a feeling like i really have a hardware problem with wifi now..But again i think whatever it is its caused by this aplication WEFI. Does anylone have any ideas? i saw some Rafael radio ROM , maybe i can try to install that?
Thanks
AArrrggghh!
This god-awful program rears its ugly head again! I have solved the problem totally now by getting a new handset!! Now I have my Touch HD (Blackstone), one thing I WILL NOT do is install this garbage!! A quick search thru the forums here will reveal a small and very useful program which will with one click switch-on WiFi (and auto connect to the signal it finds if stored in your preferred networks) and with another click will switch WiFi off! Its called AKWifiToggle, and while no where near as fancy as WeFi, IT WORKS and DOESN'T MUCK UP YOUR PHONE!!!

[Q] Can't turn on WiFi on my Diamond

Hey all,
I was bring back a Diamond from death, it was stuck at Smart Mobility Screen.
Now its alive, i have tried over 5 different ROM's 6.1, and 6.5 too, but whenever i try to turn on WiFi either BlueTooth, its just start thinking, then remain off.
Nothing happens.
Is this a ROM Bug or what?
Where can i find an original HTC ROM for it, which should be working fine?
Thanks in advance.

with WiFi OnDemand HTC by Krocher will allow the phone to activate and connect to the WLAN first and use it instead of connecting directly to the GPRS/3G. In cases when there is no Wi defined / known - Fi is found, the phone will connect to GPRS/3G. There ` s no need to disable your Wi - Fi, then it will turn off after a while the device is suspended.
Same problem over here.
A couple of days ago, I tried connecting to my home network, the way I always do, only to see the Wi-Fi icon on the top bar show up for only a few seconds, and then disappear (I was connected to the same network an hour earlier, and everything worked flawlessly). A few attempts later, it even stopped showing the icon. In addition to that, I lost the (Windows default) network list tab (Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi > Wireless Networks opens the network adapter list ('Configure Network Adapters')). After that, I tried soft resetting, hard resetting, then changing ROMs (MTTY step included), to no avail. Last night, miraculously, it started working. Now it's dead, again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT #1: This video sums it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_jQc1JRGQI
EDIT #2: A couple of possible culprits:
1) Loose antenna/cable as in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846650
2) Erased EEPROM; possible solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597195 (in my case, I doubt it's this one, as everything was fine both last night and this morning)
I can not turn it on at all.
Can't get it turned on ever.
When i click "ON" the icon starts spinning the wifi remain off.
I did updated the ROM,and Radio too, tried over 10 versions, and no success.
I will also get an error message sometimes "We're Sorry, device.exe stopped working" or so..
So my problem is not that.
same problem
any ideas ?

T-Mo HD7 WiFi Not Working

So, I bought an used HTC HD7, to use with T-Mobile USA's Prepaid service. The previous owner was rough on the device, and never updated it. I ran all the updates to Mango, and was happy to have a WP7 device again.
About a week later, I was in a Tim Hortons, and tried to connect to their WiFi. My phone's WiFi had a mini freakout (as did my CR-48, but I just swtiched that to VZW 3G), and didn't think much of it. Since then, my WiFi has been ****.
When I go to the Settings app, and turn on WiFi, the slider turns itself on and off a few times, and sometimes sees networks, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it just reboots. If it sees the networks, I can connect for maybe two minutes, and then WiFi just shuts off.
I know this isn't a problem with my router. I've double checked, reset the bands, configured a 2.4GHz G band just for the device, no luck. No other device has a problem with the home WiFi, and the problems continue on other networks.
I reset the device through Settings > About. I reset the device by holding the volume buttons on startup, and hitting volume down to reset there. I restored the original software, and WiFi seemed to work just fine. I reinstalled Mango, same result. I restored the device, and used a second computer to upgrade to Mango. Same result. I wiped and installed the Touch-IT ROM (V3), and the WiFi won't even turn on. I'm going to Task 29, and install the stock ROM through the EXE found in the HD7 shipped ROMs section, to see if that works.
I tried looking in dialer codes, but I couldn't find any that worked with the HD7, to try and find a WiFi restore in there. Any thoughts?
(And yes, I've contacted HTC, but I'm not the original owner, and he gave it a reasonable amount of cosmetic damage, and my past experiences with sending electronics in for warranty, has been abysmal to say the least. Their only suggestion was to call and see if it still had a warranty. Considering the phone hasn't been out for a year, I'm a little disapointed that there's a question there...)

Hi there, I have the exact same situation, I tried everything, master resets, downgrades of spls and custom roms, and different radios. All didnt work. I asked the same question and no one replied, may mean there is no known solution. I also scoured the web for a whole week, reading almost everything about this issue and trying whatever was suggested to no avail. Now I am selling my HD7 with "the wifi and bluetooth doesnt work".
thanks for the reply and sorry to hear your phone is in the same boat as mine.
Mine seems to be getting worse, slowly affecting other functions of the phone. ive lost count of the hard resets i've done now. somethimes settings wont open, apps dont always open. got to pull the battery to shut the phone off as the screen dulls down if i leave it but it doesnt time off. and the power button sometimes works and sometimes don't.
think unless someone turns up with a magic nswer soon, i'll need to order new phone too. shame coz i really like the hd7
I am having the same problem. Wifi worked fine since I bought the phone on 11/2010, but stopped working last night. When I went to power the phone off, I had to remove the battery because it was stuck on the "Goodbye" screen (the first time this has happened).
Same problem, what can we do?

Exactly the same problem. I've flashed and reflashed, tried all radios from 5.51, 5.52, 5.69 to 5.71.
After a reset the wifi works once or twice then doesn't work anymore :crying:
Must be the module within the phone. I see the middle housing has two connectors for WiFi and GPS, perhaps the WiFi connector doesn't work but it looks like this little thing is only an antenna, not a module.
The part I meen is a "sticker" that's on the same piece of plastic as the kickstand.
Should i replace the entire inner part or would the antenna be enough?
Help: WiFi/Bluetooth Problem
Hi, I suggest you change the title to 'WiFi/Bluetooth Problem' as I also have the same problem. It does not detect either of the two WiFi protocols (WPA2 & WEP) as I tried both with my router (laptops and androids get them both perfect).
Bluetooth on the other hand, does not pair with ANY device. Brings 'Tap to pair' prompt', then the Error 'Not Supported'. I'm running Dynamics v2.0 - Newer WP7.8 custom ROM, but this was the same even with factory ROM.
So are there any developments regarding the problems here? I still got it, no Wi-Fi, no BT...
I have a problem with my WiFi too. everything was ok since I had my HD7 two years ago, and I started to flash many custom roms a year ago with no problems at all. but one month ago my WiFi stopped working without any obvious reason, my phone was connected to wifi and I put it on the table then I picked it up.... no WiFi at all and no internet sharing also. I can turn on or off the green switch of the wifi but only just for fun! and the Wifi icon which usually pops down from the top of my phone will never appear.
I tried to flash new or old roms, many many hard resets with no luck. Also opened my phone to check if there is a hardwear problem but seems not.
Now I'm using cellular for the internet untill I can buy a new phone and break this one.
Ik must be built in or so. Every flash I do, two reboots later, Wi-Fi breaks.
They just want us to get new phones :/
EDIT
I've also installed two different, brand new, SD-card (1 class 2 and 1 class 10) but this gives the same problem.
On a side note, the class 10 is way, way faster
/EDIT
Same here
The WiFi just stopped working out of the blue and nothing i've done has restarted it. It must be something with WP7 because now the wifi icon no longer appears and the Internet sharing option is blank.
