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.

Thank you... already tried that... I think my problem is different.
Hi
Well, I wanted to know how to use wifi direct to send things to my friend. His phone has wifi direct and my black too, but I don't know how to use. I read that I need an app called wifi cast, and I found this app on smartworld. I installed the app, but I don't know what do I have to do.
Thanks
Short: I don't know, but if you want know something about my experiment
After nearly a year with my black I wanted to try this feature. I could connect a Galaxy S2 with my Black. Then I tried to send a file from the S2. Error. I searched for a possibility to send a file from the black over wifi-direct but, there is no button for that.
I assume that LG wants you to use "Smartshare", but afaik that works only with other LG devices.
Hi Swaddy
Thanks for the answer.
My friend has a galaxy note, and some weeks ago I could connect my black to his note, but I didn't send any pic to his phone. But this week, I tried to connect and I couldn't, don't know why. I guess smartshare doesn't send files, but thanks anyway

for now we can use wifi direct for sending pics videos between two optimus black only using wifi cast, i have two OB @ home so i tested it but when i want to send it to my galaxy s2 or my brother's galaxy note it gets connected through wifi direct but wifi cast doesn't show them so its not possible to transfer with other devices except optimus black
The most useful for me is Copying files between OB and PC using WiFi direct. I have read somewhere that the other device doesn't need to have the WiFi direct hardware feature. Everything can be enabled with software... but How?
I use file manager by rhythm software it has LAN capabilities so i can connect to my PC by IP address.
Trolling in the deep
I am totally loss

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.
Hello,
You guys know the old landline cabled phones ? So I still got one.
My problem is, i don`t know who`s calling me.
Its connected to the same router as my PC and my Z1.
On my PC i have found a program thats called NCID.NET. It shows me who is actually calling me. Everytime someone calls me, it shows the full
number on my pc Well nice, but my pc doesn`t run all the time, so i always miss a few calls
What i thought, my xperia Z1 is always running and connected to WiFi when i`m at home. Why couldn`t it show me, who is calling there?
I`ve been searching for an app like this a long time now but haven`t found nothing.
Maybe someone could point me where to look at, send me a link, or maybe if this kind of app doesn`t exist for android...- create one ?
I have got an Easybox router from Vodafone in germany.
Thanks
Kindest Regards
I doubt many have this problem as most people using smart view have a wifi connection they use to connect their devices to. My display adapter is one that doesn't connect to a network but instead basically creates it's on wifi connection that my phone connects to using WiFi direct. Before the Oreo update it worked flawlessly and still does on my S7 Edge.
Now when I try to connect to it on my Note 8 it's tries to connect and in some instances connects, but then almost immediately disconnects there after. I contacted samsung support and had them remote into it to see if they could get it to work. They told me it was a bug and that they would forward it to the development team, and that a fix should come soon for the bug. Well it's now going on three weeks since then and there has yet to be a update out fixing the issue. I emailed Samsung support reminding them of the issue and they said there was no reported problems related to smart view and that the next update should fix a lot of the bugs that came with the first update.
My hope with this post is that others might have the same issue or a work around, and if not, that maybe Samsung will eventually see it and find a fix for it. My S7 doesn't perform as well as my Note 8 so I'm hoping a solution comes soon.

Where can I find whatever it is that you did to make yours work? Mine works at my friend's house using WiFi and a Chromecast. But WiFi direct to a WiFi video adapter just doesn't work and it makes no sense. Did yours work on nougat?
No mines never worked still don't.
My wife's does out of the box. I have heard so many horror stories. His works his don't. This firmware. That firmware. No one really knows what's wrong with it.
Mine works about half way. I can't never fully connect. Like my tv acknowledges that my phone is trying to connect but my phone never does. My s7 did this too. But my note 5 worked great
Same problem. Galaxy S7 trying to mirror on Samsung Smart TV. Worked fine before Oreo. Now, it says it's connected, then says "Screen Mirroring ended" Help!
I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 and have the exact same problem using the smartview funtion that came with the phone. It will work fine for youtube videos but when I try to stream a video from other apps smartview will disconnect and then freeze my phone untill it restarts itself. Before oreo I had no problems using smartview without wifi. Have you heard of any fixes yet??
Still no workaround? :'(
