Is anyone else having issues with getting the transfer tool to work? I've tried several ways to make the transfer tool work between my M7 and M8, but it consistently fails with "Wi-Fi connection failed." message. I can get my stuff another way, but it's annoying as hell that something like this doesn't work. Trying to rule out any potential issues with my wi-fi on the phone.
Totally stock, and just tried again with today's update. No go...
Worked fine for me between my M8 and Jewel. It did fail the first time, though.

turn the connections optimizer off on your m7... it may shutdown your wifi connection if the hotspot have no connection ability

About once every minute I receive a message on my screen saying “ New Connection Setup database found. Do you want to install it?”
I push yes and it downloads about 14% stops and says server error.
My question is what to do with this? How do I disable?
Thanks for the help!!!

I have exactly the same problem. Been driving me nuts Whatever I do, whether I am on HSDPA or WIFI connection, it never gets further than 66% (that's the max I ever obtained) - I've tried at least 20 times and would really like to know if there's a way to get rid of this thing. I tried disabling the auto configuration, but I can confirm (as per above) that this does not work on the Touch HD.
Naturally, HTC refers you to Microsoft. I haven't contacted Microsoft because I thought I'd first find out where this comes from.
Any ideas/tips/solutions!???????????
Thanks!
This thing also bugging me alot...disabling the auto configuration doesn't work...May be some know any tweak for that...
I happened to me. I managed to download the database connecting the phone to a desktop with DSL connection. It installed something (I don't know what) and since then I don't have the messages anymore.

So far there's no working solution for this. Some people have managed to download the database, the phone rebooted itself (keep this in mind, because you'll lose any open and unsaved data) and a new connection rom version now shows up, without any visible impact.
But most of the people just cant download the whole database (me included). Seems to be related to the fact that many people are trying to download at the same time. Maybe try doing it at some wicked hours when the load is lower.

yes, that's true.... I got also the same problem, but fortunately I was wide awake at 5 a.m. and my HD manage to finish complete database download, after which phone auto rebooted and now there is no more message “ New Connection Setup database found. Do you want to install it?”.
after this update I didn't notice any significantly changes ....
Everyone connect the phone to activesync using a pc that has internet connection and then press update on the phone. It will use your pcs internet to download it and it will go successfull.
I tried to download with my HSDPA and my WIFI but no luck. As soon as connected on activesync it started to download and finished 100%
I have successfully flashed my phone with the CyanogenMod-4.2.4 rom, enabled WIFI and can browse the internet.
BUT, when I try to activate my Gmail through the activation wizard with WIFI enabled I get the following error message: “Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.”
I am using a T-Mobile pre-paid account, which means I don't have a data plan, so activation over WIFI is my only option.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Frustrating is more like it. I have spent days search this forum and the web for an answer.
I started out with CyanogenMod-4.2.3 installed and I thought that might have been the problem so last night I flashed 4.2.4 and still have the same problem.
I can browse the internet so I have a hard time believing it is a connection problem. I did come across a post earlier this week where someone was having issues with his WPA2 connection. Later today I will change the connection type and see if that fixes the problem.
If you can think of anything else I might try that would be great.
Thanks for the quick reply.

The problem is probably due to gapps failing
keep trying and maybe it will go through

I finally got it to work and for those who may run across this thread with the same issue here what I did:
I ran across a thread on a different forum that stated the reason I was having the problem was because I skipped the initial activation process when the phone was first turned on. Well with CM4.2.4 and other rooted roms there is an option to skip the initial activation process, which I did.
So I went back and reread the other threads about how to activate your phone over wifi and they all state the same thing, you will need root access, which allows you access to execute debug commands from your PC to control your phone.
So I did a hard reset and re-flashed CM4.2.4. Then after I rebooted my phone I followed the instruction on this thread http://modmygphone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9471 to turn on the wifi. Once the wifi was on I disconnected my phone from my computer and proceeded to activate it, which worked like a charm.
Hi,
I've got a problem and don't know what to do.
My phone is reporting a data connection (and reports that it's connected) but every program accessing the Internet fails with an error message that there is no connection.
Does anyone know whether there is a tool to check for an actual connection or maybe get a log of what exactly the phone is doing?
Any help to solve this would also be appreciated
Yes, the connection has worked before

Are still able to get email or update weather? If so I suggest uninstalling and then reinstalling your internet browser(s). Have you tried a cleanup utility like ClearTemp or SKTools? That may help.
No, I actually couldn't use anything that was using the data connection. It all failed, stating that there was no data connection.
The only thing that (kind of) "repaired" it was doing a hard reset...
Fortunately, I haven't experienced the problem since
HI there, I have the dreaded 'unable to scan networks' wifi problem- it started after I set up a mobile AP (I didn't turn the AP service off after I'd finished with it- I wonder if that's what caused it?)...
Anyway, I've since learned via this board that I can fix my wifi by 2 methods: 1) performing a reset (would rather not) and 2) editing a line somewhere, root access is required.
I do have a third option- waiting until the 2.2 OTA update comes through, which I understand will require (and perform) a reset anyway.
However, I'm sick of waiting for 2.2.
What I'd like to know is: If I root my phone & fix my Wifi, will I still receive the OTA update?
Anybody?
TIA.
the 2.2 froyo is not OTA
it is OTK (over the kies)
just turn off your phone, then turn it back on, that should reset your WiFi stuck i/o
some times the GPS does that too, just turn off the phone, turn it back on and they work right away.
in contrast to the HTC Windows Mobile phones, the SGS is much much much better, i barely have to do any restart of the phone with Android
with Windows Mobile it was at least 10 reboot a day
Restart doesn't fix it... Tried removing battery, etc. etc.
The 'unable to scan networks' problem is a known issue- at least to this board, If not to samsung.

Im in the same boat as you mate with my Samsung galaxy s, i have tried turning it on and off with alternate battery in and out methods, my wi-fi just wont work now, it turns on, comes up saying "Unable to scan networks" and turns the wifi off.
I have read on many posts about the issue and the best fix appears to be here:
hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8062313
*Sorry its not linked, this is my first post so i assume it wont let me post links until im roughly around the 25th post mark.
The issue i find with using this method is that in order to browse the phone at a root level to get to that file, you need to pay for the App in the android market to do it.
I have rooted my phone already and already applied the lag fix (boy did that change things), but im more contemplating doing the upgrade to 2.2 than buying the app just to fix a wifi issue. Im hoping this gets fixed in 2.2, or at least a more easier solution / fix.
My question is, if i did buy the app to browse the phones file system and i fix the wifi, does it fix it permanently or just until it happens again and i will have to follow the same process again... ?
did you both turn off Bluetooth when using WiFi?
you can't use BT when using WiFi
I've never had to turn off bluetooth to use wifi before...
However: PROBLEM IS NOW FIXED!!
Here's how I did it:
First, bluetooth was off.
Tried to upload a video shot on the phone to youtube. Got message along the lines of 'will only upload video over wifi'
Next message pops up: 'waiting for wifi'
THEN message box saying' signal strength excellent' & asking for my wifi password!
I've been without wifi for 2 weeks, this is brilliant. Give it a go, try uploading a video to youtube.
I reckon it overwrites the bad line, but who knows. Maybe its a bluetooth thing. I don't care, it worked for me.
Spread the news!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App- over wifi!
how would I go about updating, when 2.2 is official, without kies or rooting? I've lost patience with kies!
This was mentioned on another topic already but here it is again:
Heimdall, Odin, Rom Manager Clockwork just to name a few, there are many other ways to go about this even without Kies

I'm running OMJ's ROM and using WiFi Tether TrevE Mod "Version 3.2-beta-modv5-***Synergized***"
Okay so even with the settings that everyone recommends for the HTCone, and a few modifications, I still cannot get the blasted thing to work.
Settings I've tried:
Profile: Generic ICS/JB(wlan0)
Setup-Method: Auto
Encryption ON (p/w is the correct format AFAIK, about 12 lowercase letters no numbers, similar to the default)
Changed SSID to "HTCone" no spaces
Wifi Driver Reload (1) checked
MSS Clamping checked
Routing Fix checked
With those settings, I can't even get it to broadcast. It says it's running but no devices can find it. It simply isn't there.
If I disable Wifi Driver Reload (1) it begins broadcasting. However, when I attempt to connect, the second device just sits there at "Obtaining IP Address..." for about 90 seconds then retries and gets stuck at "Authenticating" then back. An endless loop never resulting in a connection.
The most frustrating thing about this is that it was JUST working the day before. I didn't touch ANYTHING and it just decided to take a dump.
Addendum: I was looking at the notes in the bottom of the ABOUT screen and I noticed the updates are quite old. Is it possible I have an old version that doesn't work with the HTC One? I got it from QBKING77's website.
Happened to me and don't have an answer. I wiped and didn't restore anything to resolve it. Restoring data broke it again.

I had no luck wiping the phone and re-installing the ROM. It was still FUBAR after the fresh flash of OMJ. What drives me NUTS about that is the fact that it was JUST working not 12hrs before it stopped working.
To give some more information as to the issue, it appears that checking either one (or both) of the Force Driver options causes it to not broadcast at all. If either of those two are checked, the hotspot isn't even visible to any device. If left unchecked, the hotspot becomes visible. However, upon trying to connect to the hotspot, it gets stuck in a loop of "Authenticating..." then "Obtaining IP address" which never results in a connection.
I've tried the options listed in that guide you posted, but to no avail.
So, at this point, I'm wondering if it's just because I'm using an outdated WiFi hotspot app. If anyone has one that's been updated since a little under a year ago, I'd appreciate a link. Thanks!

Not sure which one you are using but I'm using the one right from the Play Store v3.3 beta 2. You can also get it from here. I just went back to SWG 1.18 from a 4.2.2 ROM and reinstalled and all is good. Everything connects just fine using those settings from the link I posted earlier.

In the first post I listed which version I was using. Unfortunately, even the newest version fails to work. I don't get this. Maybe it has something to do with the OMJ ROM and how close to stock it is. Perhaps I should try a different ROM.
This is a far cry from the CM7 ROM I had on my EVO which allowed me to tether perfectly all the time without the hassle. Maybe I'll try CM again on my One.
I'm gonna download & flash OMJ's ROM & see if I can recreate it. You running the latest version right?

Sorry. I downloaded the latest yesterday but was playing around with flex's & hawk's 4.2.2 ports. I'm about to flash in a couple mins and will post my results.
Similar issue here
I'm having issues with wifi tether on my HTC One, as well. I can tell you that if you set the Device-Profile to "Auto," it will create an ad-hoc connection that my Windows 7/Ubuntu Studio desktop will recognize. Ubuntu recognizes it as a regular wifi hotspot, and connects automatically. Windows recognizes it as an ad-hoc connection, and I have to connect manually. My Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 does not see the connection at all, and neither does my LG Blu-Ray player. If I change the profile to Generic ICS/JB (wlan 1), then other devices see the connection, and will even attempt to connect to it, but there is never a successful connection with internet access. If I choose Generic ICS/JB (wlan 0), then nothing sees it as a viable connection. I am running the stock sense ROM, and have done no updates (so I'm still at JB 4.1). I can tell you that wifi tether errors frequently for me, and I have to reboot quite a lot. If I leave my phone broadcasting overnight, then in the morning wifi tether thinks that I don't have root, and gives me the "your phone is in an unknown state" error message; at that point, the only way to stop the wifi is to reboot.
So, I can make it work, for a limited number of devices. I would like to use it as a wifi connection for my tablet and my Blu-Ray player, however. I have searched quite a bit to try to figure this out, and I haven't been able to find a reliable answer. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
I got mine to work. Can surf the web, check email, etc. now the damn thing will not stream video. I am connected to 4g and speed test on my ipad verify it but won't stream. Pisses me off.
