If this is the "Basic question"

I wont ask ,OK?

now I really want to know how I can solve this problem

This question is about flash ROM or Recovery.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Wi-fi function will be related to your radio version and possibly the kernel that you are running, so please provide details of both.

Also agree that this Question shouldn't have been posted here in Development Section, but, it is now so rather than double post it, lets try to solve the problem, especially as none of us have the ability to move the thread.
[HTC Desire S] andypig04:
Thanks for you helping me solve this question at first

my desire s has s-offed by xtc clip

1.

CoreDroid ROM => kernel is unavailable(but it should be MDJ's UNITY V1)

the kernel of Virtous Unity is MDJ Unity V1 too

(both of them are original kernel un in ROM)

2.

Radio - 20.28b.30.0805U (because I'm Taiwanese)

(3. RUU is - RUU_Saga_FET_TW_1.31.950.2_R_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.14_M_release_180347)

[HTC Desire S] andypig04:
OH MY GOD :(
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
Yuck! that's looks nasty...But before you start to cry.....can you still enter recovery?

If the answer is yes then try to re-download the kernel file and the attempt to re-flash. Otherwise it might be time to go down the RUU path

Question: what HBOOT version do you now have? as I read that you applied 1.47 at some point.
[HTC Desire S] andypig04:
now only WIFI has problem

another things are well!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'm afraid that I don't quite understand what you're trying to say there...could you have another go?

Also answer the questions:

1) can you get into recovery still?

2) what version HBOOT do you have?
[HTC Desire S] andypig04:
thank you all help me to solve this problem

now I found the Virtous 1.27 and flash it

WIFI working

but this is the BUG in Virtous 1.29??
[HTC Desire S] andypig04:
thank you dude

I say I only WIFI cant working

another things are well (no problem)

HBOOT is 0.98.0002 (but my ds s-offed by xtc clip)

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Nikkopt:
I guess "your ROM" still needs some work before you can release it ;)

You are lucky some people here like to help others with less knowledge.

There are tons of threads teaching how to fix a "bricked" phone but instead of searching your problem you preferred making a thread and cry for help. I don't have a problem with that, people are here to help.. I just think you should be more humble.

I have an advice for you, don't take it the wrong way, i'm really trying to help you: don't release more "personal ROMs"

Take care

Hey all xda brothers,

I am looking to upgrade from G1 to this desire S. As this phone comes perfectly with all spec in my budget to buy.

One issues i searched was grip of death for wifi, i wanted to know is there any fix for it like using some case or soft fix.

Please guide

WiZ

Sent From My G1
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
I find "the grip of normality" is the best fix. :-) Seriously, holding it normally and in most scenarios there is no problem. You have to TRY to get it to drop out, and that'll only happen if your wifi signal is already weak.

Most custom roms also have a fix which lowers the threshold at which the phone drops the signal however. I ran the phone on stock rom for 2 months and didn't have one dropped connection. Its an awesome phone.

My only gripe with it is you have to run gpsfix every couple of weeks if you want a GPS lock. A problem with the a-gps chip though so not a HTC sense our android issue. Mildly annoying when you are sat in your car waiting for gps to lock, but at least its fixable, and forgivable considering how good the rest of the phone is.
[HTC Desire S] XZ32:
Aaaah another one coming from G1 ;)

Can def. recommend the DS!

Didn't really have any probs with the wifi issue...
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
Well, i using a TGU case and everything, never had issue with wifi disconnection... thats all i have to say :P
[HTC Desire S] Elcs:
When using my phone normally around my house, the signal stays between maximum strength and -1 bar strength with my normal grips (normal single hand portrait and dual hand landscape view).

I can force the issue and using a tight double handed grip in portrait view and reduce the signal to one bar but I have been unable to cause my connection to drop.
[HTC Desire S] peterlustig.42:
There's a fix from gtg465x which lets you stay connected to the wifi even when your signal is low. This doesn't solve the "death grid" but it improved wifi a lot for me! source: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1051674
[HTC Desire S] Codeplayer:
As said before, there is a somewhat hidden setting to get the wifi to perform a bit better and at least not dropping the connection. Go to: Settings -> Wireless and setworks-> Wi-Fi settings, press menu, choose Advanced and check the Best Wi-Fi performance checkbox. Note that as it says in the menu itself, it may consume more power. Isn't there too much topics about this in this forum? Please someone put them togethether with a sticky and delete my double posts. Thanks.

Hi

I purchased an Unlocked Motorala atrix last week, it came from Hong Kong. I am using it in australia with a telstra pre paid sim and cannot send or recieve any MMS although the sms seems to work fine. I have tried various apn settings and the data is enabled. Any help would be greatly appreciated :D

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
really?? does anyone know if anyone is currently working on it? is there an eta? do we have to wait for official a501 android3.2 upgrade before someone will release a rom? :( bugger.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
What do you mean? I see atleast Huawei 3G modems working in almost all custom ROMs.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
I have an iconia a501 with a sim card for 3g... it seems all the a500 roms have crippled telephony/apn settings etc. Id rather not get around with a great big bulbous dongle hanging out the side of my a501 waiting to get smashed to bits on a door frame as I'm walking through lol.

We clumsy people need internal 3g. :) Thats precisely why Acer made a501's (which unfortunately only come with android 3.0.1 which only supports keyboard through usb).. was kinda hoping i could upgrade rom for mouse/dongle/controller support through the usb, and maybe overclocking ability to atleast 1.2ghz, and not loose my internal sim card 3g support... guess I'm a little ahead of myself and the xda developers... the curse of being on the bleeding edge of technology i guess.

EDIT: btw i have no problems at all with beta testing etc if anyone is working on one, I am also a fairly accomplished pixel pusher if that person wanted help theming it. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
The topic should be "not a single android 3.1 iconia 501 rom with 3g working?".

We have working 3g modems but the rom is different than yours and so far only one 3.01 rom has feen made for the 501 model.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
That is QUITE a different thing than what one thinks when reading the thread title, you know? And you're asking for an A500 ROM for A501? Get an A501 ROM instead or extract the drivers from A501 ROM and use them on an A500 one. There is no point in including A501 drivers in an A500 ROM because the hardware doesn't exist there at all, you know.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
Apologies, I realized the title confusion after WereCatf replied but call me a noob, i cant figure out how to edit the topic, only the first post contents.

This is unfortunate indeed. Guess I'll just sit back and wait a month or two.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
I mentioned in another thread (sorry shoulda mentioned it here too) that it maybe its possible that someone create a rom update to include said drivers? Anyway, surely it wouldnt be THAT cumbersome to a 500 to have a couple of extra 501 drivers? (ive tried a few 500 roms already and they run absolutely perfectly apart from apn settings, just frustrating to be so close and stopped by a simple driver).
[Acer Iconia A500] dj898:
I solve the issue by using the portable mini wi-fi modem with my 3G broadband SIM that I have lying around. Top up the SIM and unlock the modem for free (bit of google will tell you how to do) now I use it to connect my A500 as well as missu iPad at the same time. ^ ^
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
What you guys are talking about is usb port working anyway, not 3G... I don't know why you think usb when you read 3g.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
good idea, but when I'm carrying around a phone, a tablet, a radio, 2 sets of keys, whatever spare part I need at the time and often a coffee as well... yet another gadget is not at the top of my list of wants... especially when what we're talking about is a something as small as a single driver.
[Acer Iconia A500] Lorthirk:
I think that someone should build a 3.1 rom with the A500 3.1 kernel (or some modified one) built with the 3G driver coming from the A501 3.0 kernel. Unfortunately I'm not able to do so...
[Acer Iconia A500] jkelso:
Hello,

Are you sure about this? I ask this because when I bought mine with HC 3.0.1. it was showing cellular radio in battery usage. I wondered about that and have since found the covered sim port but cannot tell if there is contacts in there. I have been searching these forums looking for anyone who has tried to insert a sim card.

Regards
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
Yes. We have a few posts that include teardowns, schematics and people that opened the port. You name it we had it. The module and drivers are missing and the radio is just something that's present in 3.0.1. Most custom roms have it disabled now.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
You really haven't searched either very hard, or at all. If you had, you'd have found the dozen or so threads detailing all this.

But feel free to not believe us and stick your SIM in there. Have fun taking your tab apart to get it out again. :p
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Sticking the SIM in there doesn't really do much good for him though as you can clearly see in the take-apart pictures that there's several complete chips, capacitors and resistors missing and those exist only in the A501.. And sure, you COULD solder the missing parts there, but first you'd have to find them all somewhere, then manage to solder everything in place without shorts and without burning any adjacent components..
[Acer Iconia A500] jkelso:
That's helpful FFM. No need to point me to any of those dozen or so threads either. Yes the forums are very easy to search :) I have been going through the A500 for hours but not enough to ask for help apparently.

Thanks Werecatf and bpivk,

I did see one teardown thread but it was for the battery. It just showed the backside of where the slot would be. It was just a thought because the radio was draining the battery before the update.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Yeah, it's not really the radio though, it's the driver that continuously tries to access the radio even though it doesn't exist. Acer didn't apparently do enough Q/A, it should have been really easy to notice the extra drain on the battery.
[Acer Iconia A500] poita18:
Which phone do you have? Why not attach a decent data plan (if you haven't got one already) and tether the phone to your tablet?

Make use of your phone and use it as your wifi modem

Thus eliminating the need for an extra device AND an extra data plan for your tablet.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
My phone (htc desire) has a sim with telstra (which gives me 500mb data per month).. I have a whole other sim with optus for my tablet (4gb per month).. you seem to be suggesting that I discard my optus sim and make do with 500mb data a month... seriously it can't be THAT hard to make a simple addon for a rom which adds internal 3g support for a501...

And @ werecats original post: Yes I am aware that a500 devs wouldn't include it in an a500 rom because the hardware isn't there.. but these a500 devs would do well to have an ounce of compassion for their a501 brethren.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
You're making the assumption that these devs actually HAVE an appropriate A501 ROM, with drivers etc, that they can use.

And comments like that aren't exactly going to endear you to those A500 devs either.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
Well yes you're right. I have an a501.. I'm willing to provide any files that may help etc.. but now I think about it, my limited oldskool linux knowledge seems to remember something about drivers needing to be compiled into the kernal with linux... does that mean we can get the a501 drivers by decompiling a stock a501 rom kernal? Can someone at least shed some light on how possible / impossible it would be? I've seen updates around for other roms and devices which introduce support for new hardware, I'm guessing thats usually some kind of kernal reflash... lets get the ball rolling here, surely more than 2% of us wanted the 3g version. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
I suggest you contact someone like RichardTrip, who makes an excellent almost-stock custom kernel for the A500. He might be willing to create an A501 version. You've got better chance of PMing the devs directly than making random forum posts about it.
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
Oh awesome, thanks very much for ur advice.... grr no thanks button in xda app.
[Acer Iconia A500] Porto412:
Hi,

I also have the A501 and in need of a custom rom which has a working 3G driver.

I use the A500 Virtouos Xoom ROM which has 3G options in the networking setup but it don't recognize the 3G slot/card in the Iconia, so it's of no use.

Doesn't matter because I use WiFi and for on the road a MiFi hotspot I carry with me, but a working 3G slot is preferable.

Where are the drivers for the 3G located on the tablet?
[Acer Iconia A500] mistahd33:
I will hopefully be helping someone create a kernal update for use with a500 roms on a501's which will get the 3d simcard working... oc/uv feature will apparently not be available, but im guessing that will come further down the track after the android 3.2 update is officially released for a501's... so just hang in there, itll be better than nothing. :)
