Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo [FIXED]

anyone else having the problem of wifi no longer connecting after updating TO froyo?
edit:
Okay just had coworker enable his nexus as a hotspot and I connected fine.
Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.

Wifi still good for me.

Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
I see a bunch of people reporting alot of bugs in Froyo, i havent seen any bugs yet. My answer to OP is: No.

i can't get wifi to work on any froyo!
it's just obtaining the ip adress but not connecting

i'm having the same problem on my phone. i flashed the stock rom update-nexusone-EPF21B-signed, the the frf 50 rom and everything was working fine for a few hours then suddenly it stopped working. now when i try to turn on my wifi, it just scans then says it's disconnected then starts scanning again.

everything is working fine but i just can't get any wifi! :'(

Okay, glad I'm not the only one. Wonder how we can go back to older wi-fi drivers.

This, I think there's a lot of operator errors going on that are being blamed on FroYo

Hey if you got any ideas on what I did wrong, I'm all ears. All I know is wifi worked fine before switching to Froyo.
(but the new wi fi drivers didn't work on 2.1 either and i had to go back to the old ones)

Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
Mine disconnects after a while of not using the phone. Wifi on profile widget stays on. But in wifi settings it shows not in range which shouldn't happen anywheree in my apartment.
Need to turn off and turn onwifi again to reconnect.

if more than one person is having a problem, i'm certain it's not a user error like one person said it could be (quite an asinine comment if you ask me). it's never an operator error when you turn off your wifi and half an hour later you try to turn it on only to discover it won't turn on.....how the hell is that an operator error?

i didn't have any problems whatsoever. check the md5 hash, make sure your download was fine.
make sure you wipe everything, then reinstall. if you have old data cache'd, and then tried to flash the update, that may very well be the problem.

Yeah, having troubles connecting to 802.1x EAP Wireless Networks, PSK works fine for me at home.
Yes, I wiped, checked MD5 etc..
I'm using Pauls Rooted Froyo zip

i made sure to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/battery and rotation. i do this everytime i switch roms. after 12 hrs of working fine, i just don't understand why it suddenly quit. before i flashed to froyo, i made sure to read up as much as possible to ensure i didn't miss a step. the worst part is, no matter which rom i'm using now, i have no wifi.

one thing i noticed is pre-froyo, when i flashed pershoot's kernels with new WiFi drivers i could not connect at home, but when i used kernels with older drivers, I was fine. That said, maybe it will work with other WiFi access points a la the point made about not working with certain WiFi router types. Will test when I have the opportunity.

Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.

I had problems connecting to my router (a Belkin N1). I set a static IP on the Nexus One and then it works perfectly.
I have tried to connect to my work router and it got a DHCP lease fine and worked fine (only at 54Mbps G speeds).
Perhaps this new radio image has N enabled and something is screwing up with the DHCP lease. I will try to replace my home router with another N router and report back.

I had the same problem with a message saying connecting but not picking up the IP address.
I suspect it was a conflict with the Static WiFi app I was using. I've unloaded this and after restarting and re-saving the static ip details it connected up OK.
For now I'll have to switch between static and dhcp manually I guess....

I came from Desire R19. My wifi doesn't connect as well now, i.e. seems to need a stronger signal from the AP. Last week I was getting 2 bars of wifi for the AP in my office, and now I get 1 or none. I'm getting a bar or two less at home too. I'm guessing some kind of difference in the Radio.

WiFi issue I have seems to be AP manufacturer specific
At home
Pre 2.2 I could connect without problem to my Linksys WRT 600N, no problems, DHCP etc.
Post 2.2 I cannot connect, gets to acquiring address and then craps out and re-scans
At work
Cisco wireless kit, (no idea of type of AP) pre 2.2 connected OK, post 2.2 connects OK
WPA2 security on both setups

Wifi issue after s-off

Hello, I used revone to s-off (which took many, many tries before it would actually work).
Now, the strange part is, my 2.4ghz wifi worked fine before I enabled s-off. Now I can only connect to my 5 ghz wifi.
I could use it but the 5ghz line seems to go down often, this is the routers fault.
When I try to connect to the 2.4ghz wifi it lets me input password, then it just saves it but never connects. If I try to force connect (tap the connection and tap Connect) nothing happens.
Anyone else have this problem?
I will try flashing a sense rom and see if it's the same there... But I'd love to use an aosp rom.
Could a mod be kind and move this to Q&A, Help?

I only bothered typing in my password for the 2.4 Ghtz pact of my wifi. As in, I've not tested the 5 Ghtz band. No issues. Stock 4.22 with S-off.

I've tried both Stock and GPE. In both 2.4ghz work just fine, so it seems to be aokp/PA/cm related. Maybe drivers/libs or something.
Though I guess we'd hear more if it was a common bug.
I've also checked logcat, but nothing in there indicates anything is wrong.
I did check some other threads, but most was that wifi was not working at all or that 5ghz was not working. Nothing about the 2.4ghz band

HTC ONE 5ghz problem.

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone have had issues with the phone not showing any wifi 5ghz bands?
My phone is not showing or connecting to these networks and am just wondering why? I've tryed changing the auto to 5 no luck, I've wiped the device, rebooting and have tryied chaing the channels with no luck.
My device is running ARHD22 which is 4.3 and my router is a cisco EA4500. Annoying thing is that the iPhones and laptops are picking it up. I've even changed the SID for this band to check if I could see it but the phone will only show and connect to the 2.4ghz band.
Thanks

HTC One Dual-SIM 5Ghz WiFi Problems
Hello,
I'm having the same issue - brand new HTC One Dual SIM running Android 4.2.2.
Will display and connect to all 2.4Ghz networks perfectly, but anything 5Ghz it won't even detect, or connect if I add them manually to the saved settings list - tried it with all the 8 APs at work and my two Ubiquiti UniFi APs (Pro & Outdoor 5G) at home and no luck.
Being a work phone they've said we've got to send it back to the supplier rather than to HTC, but this is the second phone I've had with exactly the same problem.
Called up HTC and after about an hour of troubleshooting everything involved until they believed me, they said there wasn't anything they could think of - but it's a little weird for two to have the same problem right out of the box!
Apart from hard reset, wipe cache partition and safe mode - anything else anyone can suggest could fix it?
Regards,
iamacarpetlicker

Sorry, yes ARHD 53 isn't compatible with dual-SIM. But my Single SIM even on stock unrooted could easily pick up 5GHz bands

Please edit your post!!
ARHD 53.0 is not compatible with Dual-SIM HTC One M7

Just an update on the issue if anyone is having the same problems.
We had our 4th Dual SIM handset delivered today (from a completely different supplier and production batch) which still had the same issue, unable to locate 5Ghz networks and unable to even attempt to connect to them.
We also noticed during debugging that if you switch to 5Ghz only in the menu and go back, it'll be unable to find any networks, but if you then turn the WiFi off and on again, it'll then show you a random selection of 2.4Ghz networks, even though the radio should be in 5Ghz only mode.
Because these are company owned devices to be used as work phones, we can't use custom ROMs.
I've been on the phone with HTC a lot today and after finding the support desk were no help, the comany I work for got me in touch with the Corporate Sales Manager over there and we had a conference call with their tech team.
They said it appears to be a software fault affecting all handsets of this model, but are unable to confirm if it is with all 5Ghz access points (we've only tested with Ubiquiti and Apple APs) as they seem to think it works for them in the lab.
We are getting shipped two debug handsets on Monday, one running 4.2.2 they have tested in their lab and one with the latest official 4.4 ROM that they said is due for release next week, to test before release to see if it resolves the issue.
Will post the results hopefully on Tuesday.

i know this is probably not the case, but just in case: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/2014/02/how-to-fix-wi-fi-htc-one.html
try with 5 characters or less.

Thanks for the reply nkk71.
Doing that along with renaming the Bluetooth too then rebooting the device was one of their debugging steps on the phone earlier, but still no joy .. Appreciate the suggestion though!

how about changing channel number?

Yes they suggested it could be something to do with the channel, but so far we've tested:
Indoor at work (Ubiquiti UniFi Pro): 140
Indoor at home (Ubiquiti UniFi Pro): 136
Outdoor at home (Ubiquiti UniFi Outdoor 5G): 128
Test Network at Home (Apple AirPort Extreme): 100
Which according to goo.gl/azMC91 are all in Band B of the 5Ghz spectrum and require DFS compliance.
But the strange thing being, my personal HTC One X connects to all the networks perfectly fine - and in the case of the work APs, we've got ~40 other devices connected on 5Ghz as we use it exclusively, half of those being Android phones, so I guess if it doesn't support those channels, that's kind of a bug in itself?

How about non-dual-sim HTCs?
PS: i'm just throwing ideas out.... nothing concrete !! (otherwise i would have said so)

That's ok, help greatly appreciated.
Like I said, my One X works great on those networks - as for a more similar matched HTC One (non-dual-sim), I know our Directors all had them when they first came out and they definitely worked as we've been using 5Ghz exclusively on those APs for some time now and I'd have had a lot of ear ache if they didn't, but I haven't seen them using them in a long time and they could possibly have been pre-release handsets given as gifts if that could make any difference, so couldn't confirm for the latest firmware updates / model revisions.. I'll have to see if our returns department has one I can borrow on Monday to test and confirm.
I'm hoping it is just a software thing and the 4.4 ROM they're shipping us to test next week will fix, as I read a few posts that the HTC One did originally have a few problems with 5Ghz when that was on 4.2.2, fixed by an upgrade to 4.3 which obviously never made it to the Dual SIM.. It was a little hard to tell from the post descriptions if the problem was indeed the same or not.

Hello,
We've been having internet troubles so I couldn't post the update on Monday, but good news.
Got in on Monday to a message from HTC - they decided over the weekend that rather than shipping me the debug phones to test, they had released the 4.4 OTA update that morning to everybody with a Dual-SIM handset and to just try updating it.
I asked them if they could test it their end before shipping the handsets out to me, so I can only assume they realised it was a problem - or they were just ready with the update - who am I to speculate.
Installed the update and the 5Ghz WiFi now works perfectly - shows up in the list and connects as expected with speeds that are stunning!
Seeing as all phones still come with 4.2.2 out of the box, you'll either need working 2.4Ghz WiFi to download the update (which was hard for us) or support did send me a link to a Windows based updater program to update the phone via USB. They said I'm not allowed to share, but I guess they'd provide it if you called up and asked for it.

You say your phone connects on the 5GHz network, but have you seen if it's connecting on the 802.11N or the 802.11AC network?
My ONE will connect on the N network on 5GHz, but not the AC network.
I've tried Auto channel selection and manually assigning channels, still no go with the AC network.

WiFi Disconnects & Reconnects after 4.3 update

One phone is on Flex's 4.3 Stock with Goodies. The other is my wife's stock phone with the latest 4.3 update.
After the update, both phones are reconnecting and disconnecting on home WiFi router constantly (every minute) This did not happen before the update. Wireless laptop still connects fine to the router.
Are there phone settings to tinker with regarding this issue? OR do yall think it's a modem issue. It should also be noted that my phone connects just fine to my work's WiFi.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Update/ Bump
Things I have done to my router thus far, and am still experience constant disconnect / reconnect
Set the router to B only
Set the router to G only
Set the router to N only
Changed the channel of the router
removed WEP/WPA Password
Upgraded firmware in this router
reset router
kicked router
Both phones are still having this issue. Do you any of you folks think it could be some conflict in handing out IP Addresses by the router?

ten etessar
I am having the exact same issue. It was happening on the stock ROM after the 4.3 update. Yesterday I rooted and flashed Stock w Goodies, the problem is still there.

Yup happening to me also but I thought it was just my phone not playing nice with the router. Problem persists even on the 5.5 roms

I was having the same problem..so I turneded off roaming and it still happened somewhat...then I reflashed the separate radio and it's much better

What radio specifically did you flash?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

This has happened to me as well. Changing the radio to the newest one helps a little as does changing to Roam Only or No Roaming. Also, placing the phone onto airplane mode and then connecting to wifi alleviates the problem. Unfortunately the most reliable fix I could find was flashing back to 4.1.2.
My theory is that something about how 4.3 handles connectivity in relation to cell service borks connectivity with all other radios on the phone because when I used my Moga with 4.3 it would constantly disconnect when the radio switched between Sprint and Roaming. But I'm not a developer nor do I understand much except for the basics.

Same issue. Only with certain apps though, like Facebook. Pretty sure it's not me because I'm stock unrooted and all my other devices work fine.

Yep, same here I am also experiencing an issue on Badseed's rom where I get a constant popup every 3 minutes or so asking if I want to allow data access for this trip or for all trips. No matter what I select it keeps coming back, even in settings where I select to allow all types of roaming I am still having this issue.... Any ideas?

I already had the latest 4.3 firmware update (soff) and then a couple weeks later I flashed the latest radio found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406330
I also disabled roaming plus I changed the lte/cdma option under data settings to Automatic
So far so good

[Help] Wifi issues when going from one router to another

I'm having wifi issues.. When I use my office wireless and then come home and use my wifi... it shows I'm connected but there is no data is being sent or received. I'll restart the wifi, phone and router - nothing works?
At the office, I have a 4 year old Netgear Wireless-G router (works on B and G).... At home, I have a 1yr old Apple Air Extreme dual band router that works on B, G and N. Nothing else has any issues. I take a laptop several days a week and it connects fine to both the office and home wifi.
It has gotten so bad that I sometimes have to restore from a Nandroid or reflash my ROM just to connect at home.
It's not a ROM issue, I've had this problem on 5 different ROMs (3 Sense and 2 GPE). It's not a firmware issue, I flashed every firmware known to the HTC One in the past 2 months. It's not a Radio issue, I've flashed every radio available too and still have the issue.
Today, on my HTC, I went in to the advanced wireless settings and tried several things and then unchecked every box that was checked and re-checked them and kept restarting the phones wifi each time. It finally started working, but now I'm not sure what step got it working?
It'll probably be fine for a few days, then I'll loose it at home again.... But it's always fine at work?
Any thoughts? Is this Apples way of saying "You should have an iPhone"?

I am seeing approximately same issue over here: while I am mostly using mobile data at work, at home am on my 3rd router in as many years, just replaced an old linksys wrt600n for a netgear r6100. I would occasionally experience your problem, usually on the 5ghz network, would switch to 2.4 and then back to 5. that works all the time. there are so many variables with wi-fi connectivity, it is really difficult to investigate and diagnose. I cannot tell for sure but I think the issue is on our HTC One device side as my old ipad never dropped the 5ghz connection. I, too, tried all radio firmwares to date with same outcome.
one advice that seems to help here, under advanced wifi settings, disable the battery optimization check.
