Wifi problems

Alright, this is my first post and I just recently got a Touch Diamond (my first 'smart' phone)...
I'm running into a problem that seems multiple people have been reporting - and that is Wi-Fi. Since the model that I got already came with the latest ROM installed (the one released mid July), I don't have anything to compare it to.
What's happening is that sometimes the phone will recognize my wifi connections, sometimes it won't. Even when I am able to successfully connect, it is only for a brief moment and then disconnects. Since I'm with T-Mobile and do not have a data plan, my main way of communicating will be through Wi-Fi. I'd REALLY like to know if there's anyone out there that might have any ideas...
I also tried updating the phone with the latest cooked SwiftBL ROM to see if maybe one of the modifications could fix it, but I still see the same problem. It's not my wifi because I've tried several other (non-secure) wireless connections and see the exact same problem with all of them. I saw on this forum who suggested to change the power settings of the Wi-Fi device, but that did nothing .
I'm at a loss....could it be a bug with the latest official ROM release?

AndChat (IRC) not connecting

Hello,
I've been having a problem with AndChat not connecting to IRC.
It will only connect over Wifi, not 3g/edge. I am on T-Mobile and Cyanogenmod latest. More detailed specs are in my sig.
I have tried wiping, reflashing the defanged base and reflashing Cyanogenmod, and reverting my hosts file from AdFree. But I still can't connect.
I have another backup phone that connects to IRC flawlessly with the same simcard, so I know it must be a problem with my phone.
Any ideas on what my problem might be and how I might fix it?

Did the connectivity tester apk I linked you to in the email help?

I downloaded and installed it, but it just sits there trying to connect as well.
I am trying to connect to irc.freenode.org:6667, but I have tried also irc.osx86.hu:6667 and it still does not connect.
It's like just my phone has this problem.
Edit: I tried again this afternoon, I could connect successfully with the tool to irc.freenode.net:6667 and to irc.osx86.hu:6667. But my AndChat still does not connect to either.

This is a pretty crazy problem. It affects more then 1 app with seemingly no cause or pattern. I'm baffled as to what could be causing it :|

Do you think it could be my radio or something?
A while ago I tried an add-on to increase edge and 3g speeds, too, but now it's integrated into CyanogenMod if I remember correctly. So that shouldn't be the cause. Plus, I've wiped and tried new installations of CM since then and still get the problem.

If it was the radio, I think there would be more issues in general. Have you tried different ports on freenode? They use ports 6665, 6666, 6667, 7000(SSL Only), 7070 (SSL Only), 8000, 8001 and 8002 according to their website.

For some reason it magically started working after I got out from work today and tried it. A fellow IRC user (who has also had the same connectivity issues) and I have both had problems but it started working randomly today. Maybe T-Mobile fixed something with the connections? I don't know.
Thank you so much for your help though, it wasn't a problem with your app but you were still very nice and willing to try and fix the problem!

Nexus one Wi-Fi is corrupted...

Hi everyone,
I was driving from Wash DC to Montreal about 3 weeks ago. Once I got to Syracuse NY my N1 just froze. I took off the battery and then it wouldn't boot. ( I was running frf50 + froyo radio since the first day it was leaked). I thought maybe a routine wipe would fix it. It didn't work. I was out of options and had to wait until I get to montreal to use a laptop and see whatsup. Once in Montreal I downloaded a Rordriguez Froyo and the phone booted up. Now the problem started. Wifi doesn't work. Whenever I turn it on it says unable to scan for networks and then another error pops up saying " Sorry! Activity wifi settings (in application settings) is not responding." I tried a million different roms and radios and the problem persists... Yesterday I flashed another froyo rom and wifi worked and actually connected to my home WLAN. Then suddenly it stopped working again... Can anybody help me? this is so frustrating, especially since I have only 2 bars of EDGE in my basement. I think it might be the Wifi driver that is causing all this. If somebody can link me with the Wifi driver I might be able to fix this problem...
Thanks!
PS: All radio related stuff work ( bluetooth, 3G...)

if you flashed a lot of roms....and it didnt work, chances are its a hardware issue, not a wifi driver issue as thats reinstalled with all roms

Wifi problems

I bought a second-hand G1(no data plan) since I wanted to play with my phone. It ran 1.6 DMD64 stock with the newest radio; and it had WiFi problems.I did some research before purchasing and knew it could be flashed; so I tried flashing it to a modern ROM to see if that would solve the problems. After figuring out it was an American phone(I live in Holland) I managed to root it and flash CM6RC2. I now sometimes have a lot of reception; sometimes not. I tried installing WiFiReEnabler and WifiFixer; WifiFixer made connections overall a bit more stable; but half of the time I still don't have WiFi. I also tried to use my laptop's WiFi for my phone via USB; followed the instructions but failed. My phone managed to get semi-bricked 3 times in that period(stuck at G1 screen), and I tried flashing another ROM too; so I flashed CM 4 times. I'm using a Belkin N1 wireless router; switched channels, security and looked at my keyphrase.
The problems I have with WiFi:
- Not finding my router even though being quite close to it; happened only with 2 of the 5 times I flashed
- Finding my router but not connecting; happened 3 of the 5 times I flashed
- Saying that it's connected but not allowing me to browse; happened all times but WifiFixer occassionally fixes this
I'm still running CM6RC2 with Amon Ra recovery 1.7 on an American phone; my router is a Belkin N1 with firmware version 3.01.04 and hardware F5D8631-4 v3 with WPA-TKIP, broadcast SSID on, channel 4.
Is there a way that allows me to get stable internet on my phone without a data plan?

This could be either a hardware or software issue, not quite sure. Your options are listed below
1. Root and flash to a different more updated rom
2. Flash the newest radio(not sure if it effects wifi signal strength, forgot)
3. Open up the G1 and see if any connectors are loose.
Option 3 is probably out of the question, option 1 and 2 can be done by looknig into the rom bible(sticky) in the G1 dev thread, this will give you threads with new roms, how to install them etc, as well as flashing the new radio(if you have not yet done that)

I already flashed the newest radio, since I tried to install CM6 and in that guide I was instructed to flash the newest radio. I also obviously have installed CM6RC2 which is the newest version of CM.
I did read somewhere that more people had WiFi issues with CM6RC2 or deratives; I'll try running an older version of CM.
Edit: Doesn't work; at least I can't browse when I'm connected. Doing a nandroid restore right now; I'm intending to use Froyo.
In the case that doesn't work, how hard and dangerous would it be to open up my casing and look for those wires? It's second-hand, so warranty would likely not be a problem.
Thanks for answering anyway.

Is it possible that your router is using a different band?
I don't know about Holland, but sometimes different countries allow different wireless bands.
Try changing the channel on your router to something like channel 7 or 11, something varied from the norm.

Well. I found a solution. Connecting my old sitecom wl-167 which has no wireless N support seems to give me no problems.
(Holland has different channels then America, but my G1 was surprisingly already configured for Europe)
Thanks for your help anyway!
P.S. My XDA does seem to have some problems. "No route to host" when trying to post.
Edit: It appears it isn't 100% fixed; WiFi-fixer still solves it right now but it might not be the solution.
Edit 2: Well, WiFi-Fixer is able to fix my problems all of the time for now; but ocasionally I have WiFi for 10 seconds then 10 seconds no WiFi, et cetera.
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
Edit 3: It isn't threatening to my WiFi anymore. Thanks everyone who tried to help me.

Note 5 nougat Bluetooth issues

Hello everyone,
So I've been having some troubles with Bluetooth on two devices running nougat, and I haven't really found any good resolutions.
I've been practicing app development lately and was originally Bluetoothing the apk to my phones to test out (email or cord has been the obvious solution but I get obsessive and wanted to figure out why bt would not work). Weird thing is it was working fine for a couple attempts then it would not work. Laptop is an msi apache, it will connect and transfer to other devices running marshmallow and cyanogenmod no problem. But my s6 and note 5 on nougat will not work. It will attempt to send, time out and say device disconnected AND THEN I'll get the prompt on my phone asking to accept the file, but of course it's already disconnected.
Tried clearing cache, resetting network connections, disabling Wi-Fi, re pairing devices on the phones.
On my laptop I changed the device type from 128bit encryption to 40-58 or what ever it was.
Repaired, restarted, tried changing support services to a local service login type, reinstalled the bt driver... I'm assuming it's the phone but just wanted to list a couple things I tried.
Any ideas or just an android 7.0 issue?
Thanks.
Edit- first post and I put it in the wrong section, sorry about that! Should be in qa

What rom are you using? Try another perhaps, I've had lots of issues with Bluetooth over the years due to buggy roms.

Just installed latest firmware (ERC1) on my Note 5 SM-N920T and bt don't work plz help. Just came off a wipe ESF lost IMEI LOST ALL carrier signal no sim card detected. Finally got it back and no bluetooh.
