Cheers djvw!

I've looked through this manually and have listed all of your registry changes with what is already done in the latest T-Mobile ROM.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMask=1 (Already done on the latest Vario ROM)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8

Menu animation is disabled by amending the following keys:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu]

"AniType"=dword:00000000

a 1K cache is created by:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS]

"CacheSize"=dword:00000400

"EnableCache"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\f sreplxfilt]

"ReplStoreCacheSize"=dword:00000400

Capslock indicator is enabled by the following:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd]

"EnableIndicator"=dword:00000001

Does this hack lock the Wizard into G only mode? After applying this hack I can no longer connect to a 'b' rated router.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rnuqui:
Isn't it most G devices can only connect to G routers? Routers are usually the ones with the B/G choice built-in. Since this is still a hack, and until it's made part of the OS, I think you have to enable and disable B and G manually. :wink:

It works fine with my "b" only access point - also works fine with my belkin pre n in mixed "b"/"g" mode. I am experiencing sporadic difficulties with connecting with another netgear access point in mixed "b"/"g" mode - but I am not sure whether this is a problem with the Wizard, the wifi utility I am running or the netgear ap....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rnuqui:
If it works with B, and it also works with B/G, then it must be connecting only in B mode. Why don't you try configuring your router to accept only G, then see if it will still connect?

djvw you are my hero. I have had my Wizard (O2 XDA Mini S) for nearly a month and have been pulling my hair out trying to get it to connect to my home router at all (b or g). Your .cab worked like a charm. I am getting 1000 kbs download per dslreports, not sure if this is g or b but dont really care as it is 5-6x as fast as what I was getting with EDGE. I will try switching my router to g only to see if it works. Thanks again.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] knowsleyroader:
Not sure the browsing is any quicker as such for actual webpages although the speed results might be as they dont have to display webpages at the same time.

However I seem to be getting a delay now when I first try to load a webpage after not being connected to wireless for a while it stays on connecting for about 10 seconds or so before going to opening and the page begining to show. Cant say I noticed that happening before.

Out of interest what are the settings changed for the G wireless mode so I can put them back and test with and without.

For testing in B mode, either set your router to b-only, or delete the key

you are correct - when I set my access points to "g" only mode the wizard will not connect. however, i am very happy that I can connect to access points which wouldn't previously let me connect at all - a real step forward.

Hi all

I was desperate to get my universal (xda exec) connected to my wireless network so installed the DJVW_HTC_Wizard_Optimizer_2_1_.0.cab file, soft resetted and it now conencts to my wireless g network where as before I could see the network but it would never connect so it is good on that front but....

Obviously I should have just edited the registry on my universal somewhere to get g working as that CapNotify.exe part is now giving me an error after restarting :-( - I get:

The file 'CapNotify' cannot be opened. Either is is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file"

Any ideas how I can lose this but keep my new g wireless ability?

Cheers in advance!

cannot connect

I have had my Vario for a few weeks now but i use my MDA III a lot more as the screen is much bigger.

Anyway i have always been able to use my Wifi on my wizard since the day i got it, but last night when i applied this cab file it wouldn't let me browse the web using my wifi connection. i have a good ip address from my router and the signal is good but i still get no activity, it says that the page cannot be downloaded because the connection has been dropped, at the same time if i use my blueangel on wifi it works, as well as my pc's. i have deleted the reg key for the 'G' setting and soft reset the wizard a few times but still nothing, is there anything i am doing wrong or is there anything else i can do?

i have seen a couple of posts here of a few guys saying that they had the same issue, but somehow resolved it........how???

i appriciate any help i can get on this, thanks

If you read the specs carefully you'll see that supporting 802.11g is different of supporting 54mbps data transfers, the 802.11g on the wizard is limmited to 11mbps, BUT that's not allways bad because 802.11g supports OFDM which has better noise tollerance at a lower power consuption... But at lower rates, 9 and 6mbps only. At 11mbps, 5.5, 2 and 1 mbps you're using 802.11b..

Has anyone tryed a speed test to a PC connected in the same lan to check the speeds?

If you are at 54mbps you should see something arround the 2750kbps..

The internet tests don't show anything if you have an internet connection lower that about 22mbps downlink, and the internet tests aren't reliable.

I have the same prob's with my Vario it connect's to my router it get's a IP address and i can see my Vario in the client list of the router.

But it won't let me intenet or send/receive email.

Is there a setting that I'm missing?

I am definitely connecting at g because everything works fine with my router (Belkin pre-n) set to g only. However the dowload speeds (1000 kbps) are much slower than my laptop with a matching pre-n adapter (13000 kbps) which is identical to my PC connected directly to the router. So clearly the g specs on my Wizard are in fact much less than the theoretical maximum. I haven't tested the b speeds because I do not want to delete a reg key and my router does not have a b only mode. I am still happy being able to connect at all and these speeds are perfectly fine for day-to-day browsing. don't do a lot of file transfers to my Wizard. Maybe a future ROM will increase the g speeds.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] djvw:
Everybody who wants to have the WLAN g tweak only take a look at this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=216626#216626

@all who ask "54 Mbit or not?"

The WLAN adpater of the wizard definitely connects with 54 Mbit speed.

BUT: The other peripharals (cpu, memory, etc) are NOT able to handle such high speeds. I tested speeds in both b and g mode and the increasement went from 0 to 50 %, depending on which type of data transfer.

File Transfer from PC to wizard:

About 110 Kbyte/s in both modes.

Speed test over the internet (average):

About 130 Kbyte/s in b mode.

About 200 Kbyte/s in g mode.

DO NOT EXPECT TO ACHIEVE EVEN SIMILAR SPEEDS LIKE A PC/LAPTOP WLAN ADAPTER! NO PPC CAN DO THIS AT THE MOMENT!!!

I've had to hard reset my Vario after getting spurious lockups and quirks, especially with activesync. This may or may not be to do with running the optimiser cab but probably more likely down to playing with a lot of GPS utility programs recently.

Anyway, now that I have a clean machine once more I'd like to manually add the "g" key to the registry on its own. I know there is a new cab file but that seems to have something else still left in it for capsnotify so I want to retain total control over the tweak. What (free) registry editors would people recommend for the Wizard? I don't want to risk screwing anything as the Wizard is a WM5 machine and I know that is proving a challenge for some software..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Koksie:
try phm regedit, freeware. I've attached it to this post. one is a cab file, the other has to be renamed to .msi to work and is a desktop installer.

Re: help

Ditto me - DHCP is failing when I have less than 50% signal- although if I go and stand near enough to the AP to have a good signal then it works and I can walk around and it carries on working. Would you be able to try that and let us know how it goes?

The G works great, I haven't got a router but an adhoc connection with my laptop. I also got the cap notify to work but I would like to know if that cache tweak is only effective when there is a mini SD card? If not, are all of you using it? 4096 didn't work well (no real effect) with my mini S so I stopped using it.

Re: help

Yep, same here with D-Link G604T. Can't connect even if set to b only unless standing close to AP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Archway:
Well, I set this key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8

on my Jasjar and then switched my wireless network from 54G-Auto (allows b) to 54G-Only. With this, the Jasjar can see the network but cannot connect. Setting the network back to 54G-Auto immediately fixes the problem, so as far as I can see the setting dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8 makes no difference!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] djvw:
The cache tweak only effects the internal memory settings of the wizard, so it does not have any influence on sd card usement. 4096 Kb is often reported to be less efficient than the 1024 Kb setting.

Hi Everyone, I am new here and not up to speed with all the jargon etc and am trying to adapt to the O2 xda mini S after having normal phones.

After hours of trying I have finally managed to get my wireless connection to say 'connected' BUT whenever I open internet explorer and try to find a site evey time I get the message 'The page cannot be found,check the name and try again'.

I am using a Belkin 54G wireless router which can run up to 125mbps and my desktop pc and laptop both work fine.

I have nearly 100% signal on the phone and as I said it does say that it is connected when I go into network cards,configure wireless networks and my router is there saying connected. The wireless logo at the top of the screen has two arrows which are both static.

Any idea what is wrong, anyone had the same problem, is it just settings somewhere or would this file everyone is on about sort it ???

If anyone is using the same setup could they possibly list their settings to help me check mine or if Iam connected is it something else ??

Thanks

hi iang27, try the following.

goto start menu, settings, click connections tab and tap connections, advanced, select networks, make sure both items set to my work network. works for me but struggled like you initially.

this file on this thread increases the speed the wizard connects to the router at.

sort out above first then worry about the speed later.

hope i've been of help to you.

Hi Laitch71, tried changing all setting to 'Work' but still the same message.

I cannot understand this when it does say it is connected, but cannot find the page, weird.

Did you enable the 802.1x box and what about the smart card or certificate (would not know what this was anyway )?

Also what is the box in Wireless LAN that is called Enroll, it asks for user name, password, server, do you know what this is

Thanks Mate

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] William Yeung:
Just wanna share my thoughts:

The question 'why its locked' can be answered very simply in ODM's point of view.

Look at the line of products:

HTC Wizard, Prophet, Universal

Both Prophet and Universal have G, indeed both are developed similar time as Wizard (Prophet is released later).

In manufacturer point of view, its terribly stupid to install 3 different models WiFi chips nor to write different driver. The simpliest way is of course, to lock it up. That makes different models seems to have different features, so more people would be stup*d enough to buy the more expensive one due to the feature difference. Indeed they are all the same (well except Universal which contains quite a bit difference, but my bet is Prophet and Wizard are nearly 100% identical internally except the keyboard)

Just a heads up to any 8125 owners. It looks to me that my 8125 works with G already. I haven't done anything to make it work with G (regedits) However I just set my linsys in G only mode and tried to connect with an old pcmcia B card and no dice, so then I tried to connect with the 8125 and it connected just fine. I dont know if cingulars EXT ROM changed that or not, but yay!

That's all I got at the moment, if anyone else has an 8125 and it doesnt work on a G only AP then please post back so that we can sort it out.

Well, if its not too much trouble. Do a nice good backup and a hard reset, that will put you back to stock settings. Also like I said, my 8125 already worx on G-only.

HOORAY! My wireless works again :D MY router was playing up on G mode anyway so I had to set it to wireless B. TBH, I don't think the processor in the Wizard is fast enough to process web pages at above 1mbps anyway, so it's irrelavent whether it can recieve the datat at 11 or 54mbps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] uktech:
:D I just got my Vario delivered and was messing about for ages trying to connect it using wireless. I don't know why T-Mobile restricted G access in the 1st place. Just came across this forum! Excellent stuff! The device connects straight away to my Belkin MIMO router and my Linksys WRT54G.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] darkjedi:
u know, i really don't see the need for G support at all, seeing as ALL g routers support B. even the fastest internet right now barely reaches 10Mbit, and as mike freegan said, the processor just isn't powerfull enough to handle anything over 1Mbit. i've love to see if the universal can pull anything faster than 1Mbit over wifi.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] tdodd:
G routers might support B if that's how they're configured but since anyone who only has G devices would be wise to set the router to G only it may make the difference between bring able to connect or not at all. I agree it has nothing to do with speed. But my router has been set to G only for years and I don't want to switch to mixed mode just to let my Vario connect and slow down the network overall, or indeed increase the potential for other B devices to try to hack in.

My friends with G networks have their routers set to G only, sensibly, as well. If I want to check email or surf while round at their place I don't want to be limited by a B only device when we all know it is capable of connecting to a G network if allowed.

Finally, while out and about and needing to "borrow" an unsecured connection I'm sure you'd prefer the flexibility to connect to a G only network as well as a mixed or B only network.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lewcamino:
