Hi!

My suggestion is to back up everything and do a hard reset. This will probably fix it. Wifi driver settings are stored in the registry and so fixing them manually can be a bit of a pain. If you're interested, standard wifi settings look something like this:

These can be checked out with one of the many regedit programs around (check out this forum) - I recommend this:

Good luck man ;)

OMG! i followed jockyw2001's procedure and instead of creating a CAB file of my own, I used his because I could create my own. Oh well, I'm cloned. Thanks Technology
[HTC Excalibur] angelgolp:
thanks,

but how do I hard reset it?
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Most Likely Your WiFi Is Bricked

If you got that above message concerning the wifi driver, then most likely your wifi is bricked. To do a hard reset, go to Start> Accessories> Clear Storage and enter "1234", press the yes button. I sent a PM to you already, also you might want to contact jockw2001 the wifi fix man, that's his thing.........!
[HTC Excalibur] angelgolp:
It worked. I hard reseted it and now I hVE WiFi back.

Thanx

Wifi Not Working!!!!

Please help me as the wifi settings in my Tmobile dash, shows "Driver is not loaded"

Tried everything from hard rests to reloading the T-mobile WM6....
[HTC Excalibur] angelgolp:
hello,

I had the same problem.

I just went to the Expert menu, than Clear Storage, and enter 1234 and press YES. I dont know if that works for you but it worked for me.

Help! Wifi Problem - Start and Stop and Start Again

My wifi is acting weird...

It starts fine, and I can connect no problem, but after 30 seconds or so it shuts off and then a couple seconds later starts back up again.

Is this a known problem?

I did use jockeys CID unlock to flash the latest HTC ROM to the phone, but my understanding was that he had fixed the wifi issue.

Any help would be much appreciated.
[HTC Excalibur] grim1234:
Check your power settings on your wifi. I think you symptoms might be features.
[HTC Excalibur] :
thanks grim. i ALMOST said that i checked that already, figureing you were talking about the literal wifi settings. since i had it set to never disconnect with no activity, i figured i was good to go. a quick double check though and i saw the power management option in the wifi settings and sure enough, it was set to power down the wifi 10 seconds after the screen shut off (which is set to 30 seconds).

all fixed now!

thanks again!

WiFi is killing my battery

Hi there,

When I enable WiFi on my S620 I can litteraly see the battery meter going down. When I'm surfing on WiFi for about 10 Minutes or so, the battery is already halfway depleted. Is this normal or is there anything I can do to increase the battery life when using WiFi.

Thanks for your insight.
[HTC Excalibur] angelgolp:
In WLAN options, go to Power Mode, then choose best battery.;)
[HTC Excalibur] rushless:
Hard to find a happy center. Best battery usually results in lost connections unless you are real close to the source for wifi. Best performance drains the battery quickly, but provides a good connection.

WIFI Problem/Solution

Hi all,

I have a T-Mobile branded DASH and I was having issues connecting to my WIFI. Every time I tried to connect, it would spit my WEP key out and ask for it again. I searched this forum (great job, btw) and howardforums but nobody had the right solution. I read info. about issues concerning linksys router WRT54G (which is what I have). I also read about broken wifi hardware. But I was reading available networks, my DASH was simply not connecting with the WEP key. After many hours, I decided to try going to WPA (TKIP). And to my comfort, it worked. I am now connected.

Does anybody know why my DASH would connect via WPA over WEP? Was my WEP settings wrong? I had it on 64bit10hex encrypt and matched the key to the keyindex.

How to use your phone to tether via Wifi (not data)

I don't think this topic have ever been mention.

I know how to tether using data from the phone, I want to tether using Wifi from the Dash. Using the phone as a wireless adapter is another way you can put it.

Anyone know how to do this?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
It's been mentioned SEVERAL times actually. Do a search first. And look for "wifirouter" in the Hacking and Development section.
[HTC Excalibur] Shining Light:
I'm looking to tether using USB-Wifi and not EDGE. WMWifiRouter uses the phone Wifi to transmit to other Wifi, while my PC is connected straight to the phone. What does that have to do with WMWifiRouter??? Two completely different things, this program would be useless to me.

help

Hi, i've been reading this forum for a few months now I personally own a Kaiser and my dad owns a dash, he got the dash with no wi-fi and with WM6, I'm assuming that the previous owner flashed to WM6 and lost WiFi anyhow I found this thread a little bit old, don't really know where to seek help, I've done all this steps i beleive correctly, and from step 11 and on I have no clue.

In step 11 when it says standard USPL what does that mean? should I flash using the jump spl 1.11 or use the one with haret.exe?. I've been doing it with jump spl and sda unlock in the first 2 steps then after the second tri color screen (step 14) says unplug usb remove battery, done that but when i start the phone again its still in tri color screen so i can't do "Standard USPL". Anyways i still run the RUU update then phone reboots normal mode no white nor tri-color scree sad enough when it gets back there is still no wifi... I've done this process about 5 times just making sure i'm not wrong. But still i think I'm missing out something, can anyone help?

Many Thanks in advance

WiFi static ip setup

Hi guys, have you tried setting up a WiFi connection using a static ip on the kavana wm6.1 rom?

I've seen that under

Settings -> Connections -> WLAN Settings -> Connection Status -> Menu -> IP Address

you can insert your ip, the subnet end the gateway but seems that it doesn't work for me.

After setting up everything I can connect successfully but the ip shown isn't the one I've set.

Any suggestion?

[HTC Excalibur] vwrpm:
I'm using the same version of this rom (without smarttoolkit) and my wifi works just fine. I would guess smarttoolkit may be causing a conflict.

[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
close it with celetask then remove it
[HTC Excalibur] kavana:

If You Have A Excalibur, Then It's Got WLAN Settings?

Go to Start> Comm Manager> Settings> (3)WLAN Settings and click on "WiFi"! I need you to tell me what it says. The reason being, you may not need another radio, but wifi repair software. You asked for help and I was just trying to help you, but first, I need to know what it says, when you click on "WiFi'...............!
[HTC Excalibur] linuxrw:
the thing is when i get to settings there is no option saying WLAN Settings, only (1) Phone, (2) Bluetooth and (3) PRofiles... so i dont kno what to do...
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Click on Settings

Click on Settings and you will see WLAN Settings......! It's in the Comm Manager Area, do you see Settings in the lower right corner...!
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
Now I see Whats Going On

What I'm trying to confirmed is whether you have bricked you wifi drivers and from what you are describing tells me indeed you have bricked your wifi, but lets make sure. Ok, what I need you to do is reinstall another ROM on your device and look in the Comm Manager Area for the WLAN Settings and click "WIFI" and tell me what you see! Don't panic the wifi fix is very easy........!
[HTC Excalibur] RamenBooko:
So, what is the wifi fix? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
WiFi Fix

yes I Can help you, but I need your help first! Go to the Comm Manager area, click on Settings> WLAN Settings> and Click on "WI-FI", tell me what it says, then I will know which way to direct you. I do have wifi repair software by my main man jockyw2001, that works like a charm............!
[HTC Excalibur] RamenBooko:
I'm on WM6.1. So what exactly are you looking for? Once I click Wi-fi Settings, I am just showing my avail networks.

Is that all you wanted to know?

I know that it works, but as soon as it connects the Wi-fi option is removed from the phone.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Excalibur] Technology:
I A few Minutes

I will send you repair software in a few minutes, be patient....!:D

no internet on wifi

Flashed my rom to 1.33 a few weeks ago and somehow after that I'm unable to browse the internet on wifi...my phone can see and connect to networks but my browser always says "unable to conenct to internet...please check your browser settings" or something like that...anyway bottom line is...I can't browse if I'm on a wifi connection but I have no problem if I'm on EDGE....I also have the WMWifirouter installed...would that have anything to do with it?
[HTC Excalibur] lovemy65stang:
No Wifi

I'm in the same boat as you! I'm using Ricky's latest ROM (v13), except I don't have an internet plan with t-mobile. If I can't get Wifi browsing soon, i'm going to have to go back to windows 6.0 :confused: That would suck b.c. I really love Ricky's 6.1!!! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC Excalibur] naars90:
What gets to me is that my wifi used to work...and then I noticed that when I try to view youtube videos using TCPMP with the flash bundle I would got a "unable connect to URL" or something like that...wasn't a problem before...
[HTC Excalibur] rickwyatt:
try upgrading your radio
[HTC Excalibur] naars90:
would also like to flash the newest ROM's but kinda hesitant to do so...not really all that confident that I'm not gonna brick my phone...think I just got lucky the first time...'sides...I don't wanna have to lose my activation codes for opera mobile...which happened the first time and I had to contact opera for a new code...
[HTC Excalibur] naars90:
err....noob here....upgrading radio...ist that the same as flashing a new ROM?
[HTC Excalibur] lovemy65stang:
I thought your v13 rom had the newest radio too? Is there a cab somewhere? What should I be looking for?
[HTC Excalibur] galacius29:
have the same problem.... Upgraded to HTC 1.33 now my explorer doesn't work even though my google maps and all other wifi related things work..

sucks, if there isn't a solution i'm going to have to go back to wm6.0 which i don't want to do...

Strange problem with WiFi

Dudes, I have a problem.

I just buy a brand new D-link Wi-Fi Router and installed it in my home.

But when I try to connet to wireless thats happen:

First click to some link: Super connection no problem

Second click: Little slow connection but no problem

3th click: Very very slow connection

4th click: no connection (but Wi-Fi is still connected with full connection status).

When I dissconect and connect again everything goes to start again - fast connection, slower, slower, no connection.

What happen?

I am sure I installed the Wi-Fi correctly, and this model is very very popular.

I have no chanse to check with other wi-fi devices.

If there any third party programs to connect with wi-fi for smartphones I will try it. If there are any connection setting for router or for phone i will try it.

Thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] nutpants:
i have the same problem i am trying rickys vannila "Ive Remade Kavana 080408 Now basic Rom links ready" to see if that solves my problem.

sometimes my 620 connect other times it says it connects and looks connected but i cant surf the web or connect with a ftp i get the same error of something like " cannot find internet connecting check your setting and try again"

[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Try downgrading your router to 802.11b temporarily and see what happens. Also, try changing the channel. If nothing works, get a different router (if you want it to work with your phone). :) I had a Linksys WRT54G and it wouldnt work with any of my HTC phones (HTC Tytn or my Excalibur). I bought a DLink-625 and it works....

i am having a similar problem and my router worked fine untill i updated to 6.1

now i am having LOTS of problems.

The model of the router is D-Link DI-524 old good model with no change TTL function. I see there are settings about performance.

What should I change to boost the speed?
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
Im not happy. Click One is perfect. Click two is perfect too, But when i make click three the connection downs to 7-10kb,sec

I don't find 802.11b option. I have 802.11g and mixed mode. Can I do something with the phone? Some fine tune software?

wifi only

hi all, is it possible to make my htc only connect to webbernet via wifi. i dont want no data charges! if i turn gprs off, will it affect phone use? thanks in advance.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Turning GPRS off doesnt affect anything...
[HTC Excalibur] :
if you delete all of your gprs profiles there won't be any way for the phoen to connect to gprs since it won't now what settings/info to use in order to do so.

i use wifi only in this way and haven't ever had a problem.
[HTC Excalibur] ccampton:
i believe you can just go to gprs settings and change what provider it connects to or just not select one at all

It depends on what ROM you are running but the basics. Go into your WiFi settings, find Power Mode and uncheck the box for "Auto Turn off wlan if no wlan or user activities after LCD Off"
[HTC Excalibur] gottifour:
Thanks for the quick reply...I'm using rickys rom v 12 I think..When I go into my comm manager and go into wifi settings I dont have a power mode. My comm manager looks different than my old ones. Is that why there is no power mode? Thanks again..d

You won't see it going through that way

Goto Settings, Connections, More, WLAN and you'll see it there.
[HTC Excalibur] gottifour:
Im sorry for this thread...It seems that it is a setting in this other program that I just started using.WMWifiRouter. It creates a wireless access point and I use it with my internet sharing to tether my phone to my linux ubuntu laptop. Again..Sorry for the unnecessary thread. At least maybe someone will find it useful by using the program I mentioned. It seems to be a cool program and I couldnt get my dash to sync with ubuntu for nothing before this...d

does any one know how to give the dash static ip ? address
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
why do you want the dash to have a static ip?
[HTC Excalibur] ronald11:
Cuz i use static ip addres here at work with wpa2 and wep at home with static ip addres not dhcp, some times wireless zero services fails to connect when use dhcp in xp.

That is why we use static ip address

//////////\\\\\\\\

but i found a way thanks
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
If you have problems with router, maybe you have settings problems - play with your router fine tune settings, about connection, but after all in your dash: Start-->Settings-->Connections-->WLAN Settings-->Power Mode and set "Best performance". Try with this settings. I have the same problem and this resolve it!

good luck.

How do I make WIFI turn on automatically after reboot?

I keep my wifi on 24/7. When I reboot my phone I have to manually go in an turn on the wifi- it already knows what my preferred network is and just connects. So all I really need is a way to turn it on after reboot. Is there a way to do this, maybe even thru the registry?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
This might be of interest...

http://ae.inc.ru/aewft.php
[HTC Excalibur] :
it doesn't stay on? i could have sworn that if it was on when the phone turned off... it would turn on when the phone turned back on.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Mine behaves the same way... But if he says it doesnt, maybe his doesnt.. who knows! lol
[HTC Excalibur] gixxum:
if i reboot my phone with the wifi connected, i have to reconnect the wifi upon boot. was that way with the stock tmobile 6 rom, htc 6 rom and every 6.1 rom i have ever tried
[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
Here ya go. WiFi always on after reboot:

(abbreviated as HKLM)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms

In that folder, there will be a D-word value registry key, called "HTCPreloadWifi". You will need to edit this value, or if it is not there you will need to create it. Set it to 1 to preload WiFi on reboot or 0 to disable preload on WiFi on reboot

You will need to do a softreset after the above reg edit.

Another "solution" is to put a shortcut in your startup folder to WiFiInit.
[HTC Excalibur] sunycheeba416:
Thanks Bupahs that was it!! Only thing is that HTCPreloadWifi was already set to 1.. it was the key above it called HTCResumeWifiAfterReset that did it.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
Yup, Yup!!

Gotta change that reg entry fo sho!

Works like a charm!
