Wifi HTC Touch Dual

Any updates yet?

Sorry to bug you all, I realize your all probably very busy, but this thread seems to have come to a stop.

We all know wifi is there, and there are some of the best hackers/crackers out there working on getting it activated.. All without any real success (no disrespect intended, Getting it working for even a short time is impressive to those who have done it)

My question is, Is it time to count our loses?, Forget about the wifi situation on the HTC Touch Dual & Move onto something that does have wifi?

Or is this still a work in progress with determined people still working on a fix?

Terry

(I hope your reading this HTC.. We're not happy.. This could cost you a lot of customers)

Also, to the post above which stated there is no antenna for the wifi.. Even if this was the case, and the wifi was there and the antenna simply wasn't.. Wouldn't the device still detect the network if it was practically sitting on top of the router?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] NetrunnerAT:
no ... we try in the moment to decompile the spl and radio. then we can better read the code.

HTC Touch Dual Rom Updates

Has anyone yet tried the ROM Updates on the HTC Website?

http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=44&cat=2

When i type in my serial number, it tells me the updates are not suitable for my phone (Australian model)

Maybe someone else would have more luck

The Windows Mobile 6.1 Rom Update states

" * Connectivity: Internet Explorer enhanced browsing, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection setup simplification, etc."

maybe there's hope yet.

HTC Touch Dual Rom Updates

upon further research, I've discovered that the updates I mentioned above are only available to those who purchased their HTC Touch Dual directly from HTC, and are therefor using unlocked/unbranded versions of the phone :(. Does anyone here have such a phone?, Are they able to try the updates, see if they give us the much needed WiFi option, and then upload the updates to a different server for us all to use?.:cool:

Terry.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] BelaGuez:
I have an HTC Branded/Unlocked (well I assume its unlocked as its not sold in this country and I didn't have to do anything to get it to work with my SIM) but I assume its original origin was somewhere in Asia (possibly India) and the ROM update is only out in European countries.

The WWE won't run on mine, says INVALID VENDOR ID. And all the Country Specific Support pages on HTC's website say my serial number is invalid.

I did get the phone second hand however, on the HTC splash page when it boots up it shows in red text the Radio, ROM etc versions. Is this normal or an indication that its been messed with in the past?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] giambrone:
Latest HTC Updates

Sorry to spoil everyone's fun with the new updates, but the description from HTC is copied and pasted straight from the Windows Mobile 6.1 description (can't remember where from) It was said somewhere else on here.

Also it would have to patch the radio roms etc etc, which I'm pretty sure is different from your regular OS ROM...

However I really really want to be able to get wifi on my Niki...

Keep up the good work guys and gals...

Look this picture. (Qualcomm MSM7200)

There is no Wi-Fi and GPS (Only GPSone)

GPS (And probably Wi-fi) located in RGR6500 cpu, and i don't see any reason why HTC will put this cpu in Nike
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] carinapilar:
Up!!I need this!!My HTC is a Brazilian Model (this exists?!)...And the ROM'S upgrade dosnt work!

** Sorry for my bad english
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] NetrunnerAT:
You havent any clue what is inside the Niki ... this is a Chipset diagram ... only Chipset!! Wifi is inside the Blue Tooth IC, connected too the SIDO Bus on Radio CPU.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] xxxneoxxx:
They should shoot the guy who posted the description and FAILED to interpret something as basic as a general product description right.

Now this thread will turn into a place where idiots who don't even know English will believe that the 6.1 update is some kind of magical upgrade that will turn on wifi and gps. oh, and it might even turn your phone into a pure gold bar.. And a jacuzzi.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] carinapilar:
LoL!

"turn your phone into a pure gold bar", sound's good!

But I wanna only wifi, thanks! ¬¬

hope there will be a wifi for this soon... as I know HTC touch dual is much higher priced than that of HTC touch... but why on earth did they have no wifi and the plain touch has one....

Hope this can be a reality soon a touch duo with wifi ... Good luck guys

whew! i'm finally done reading this thread. started from page 1 he he he! I just got HTC Touch Dual (not brand new) I was quite disapointed it doesn't have wi fi in it (though I know it's my fault for not checking before buying §;) )

I think my unit is from singapore (SingTel)

I hope that you guys can find a way to make it work

*lurk mode enabled
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Section9:
Same here, running latest Singtel ROM, Asia

I am not sure which is which, is it that all HTC Touch Dual 6.1 ROMS are all generic, as in the wlansettings.exe and the other 'wifi' files are included. Perhaps, it's easier to just dump everything in into the upgrade?

This Wlansettings file is create by HTC in year 2007. Now, why would they put this file (s) into the ROM upgrade?

Coz it's an easier job? :P

sorry...i was wrong
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Darizle:
Hi Guys

Newbie here, I've read all the threads so far and obviously, nobody is gonna crack the HTC Touch Dual wi-fi functionality for a looong time :rolleyes:....so I guess the best solution is to get the Wi-Fi Micro sd flash card. I think its out already.

But there is one downside to that as well. I don't think it support data Storage (like a normal memory card). and this means you have to remove your memory card to use the wi-fi, and vise versa...where's the fun in that:(

NEways, for the geniuses still working on the crack stuff, Good luck and hope u get a result soon. Cuz if this stuff aint gonna have a wi-fi function, I'm gonna dump my HTC Touch Dual for a Blackberry Storm ;)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] trimakassi:
C'mon guys, cut this out already! This is getting frikkin annoying!! Do a search around and you'll find that the wifi card from terratec or something doesn't work. Please quit bringing this up every time and just buy a phone that has wifi and gps for sure. 'Cos it will NEVER HAPPEN FOR THE NIKE!! HTC Diamonds are on the cheap nowadays...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Billokko:
Yes... wifi project is UFFICIALLY dead... (said by NetrunnerAt)

I'll give it a go tomorrow, It just so happens that for that day I will have a touch & a Dual sat on my desk.

I'm also going to do a full dump of the registry and files of the touch tonight, Not the ROM though.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] index7:
Hi,

Newbie here. I too sent an email, got a reply within a day.

==========================================================

Like thousands of users out in the world, we are waiting for a Touch Dual with WIFI. I got a few questions:

1. Can the current Tocuh Dual be enabled with WIFI?

2. If it cannot, is it because there is no antenna?

3. Will you all be coming out with a new version of touch dual with WIFI?

I think many many people will buy it if you make Touch Dual like the Japan version with WiFi.

Thanks,

Andrew

===============REPLY======================================

Dear Andrew,

Thank you for contacting HTC International.

1. Sorry, can't enabled with WIFI.

2. No, It is default setting.

3. There is No plan currently. We have forwarded you feedback to the R&D center. If there is any update, we will release it at www.asia.htc.com immediately.

Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

We look forward to be of service to you again.

Best Regards,

Gary Guo

Customer Service Executive

HTC Corporation

=========================================================

It's still a bit unclear about the antenna - but it seems like a default setting - more than a hardware issue. However, it's still vague. I'll question them more - but don't blame them if they won't want to reveal. At least they have forwarded to the R&D department. Now - if thousands of us swamp them with mails to have a touch dual with WIFI & GPS ..............
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Chainfire:
Meh looking at the registry you guys posted, I can see the same WiFi device as is in the Kaiser. It is missing all it's registry settings though. Let me wip something for you. (see y'all in 10 minutes)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Chainfire:
Ok, here is a zip file... Throw the DLL in your Windows folder and import both the registries. Soft-reset, see if it does anything for you.

From the two registry files (one for touch, other for dual) I see that some things are missing for the touch, and a lot of things are missing for the dual. It is quite likely that this won't work, but I guess it's worth a try for a daring individual :)

Good luck!
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] who_else:
Anyone able to test? Still haven't got my Dual :-(

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] ori_lavee:
Dear Chainfire

Thanks for your effort

what do you mean by saying "import both the registries"

import from where to where ?

Thanks again
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Chainfire:
The zip file contains a DLL and two REG files, put the REG files on your device and 'run' them, this should import them to your phones registry.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] ori_lavee:
(-:

Thanks Chainfire
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Chainfire:
Note that you put the DLL in the Windows folder of the Touch, not of your PC =p
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] IceHack:

do you think that this "antenna" will be also able to help Dual to gets GPS?!

I get no WiFi option on the Communications screen.

Any tips I missed?

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] madds:
you must install a 9 button com manager just like the kaiser one...

but let me tell you... doesn't work :S

But we must keep in mind that we bought a device without wifi or gps!!!!

it's a great device and i accepted it as it is...

but i must say wifi and gps working would become pretty cool!!!!!
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Hennevey:
Totally normal since the HTC sprint is not the same device, in fact running on a msm7500 and not 7200...

Can any htc dual touch user try this out and bring this thread to something more concrete than people "hoping" ;)

Thanks :D

No luck =(

It tries to turn on WLAN (animated wait icon) for about 3 seconds.

Then the WLAN icon returns to the "off" display.

Worth a shot though!

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] madds:
It enables you to turn 3g ON or OFF
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] J273:
Chainfire...Is there any chance fella you could compare the 2 registrys and see what DLL'S and reg settings are missing for between 2 to see if we can get GPS working?

Thanks alot.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Chainfire:
Well I've been toying with the idea for a small util app that does exactly this (for both ROM files as well as registry) but it will take me a couple of hours to write and I probably won't be home til monday. If you haven't found anything by then, I'll look at it.

well ill need some stuff. a special registry dump and file dump (i will provide special tool) and also important a part02 rom dump of a touch dual (that does not a run a custom rom). the latter can already be arranged by one of you :)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Vorbeth:
If you tell me how to do this I'll happily do it.

I'm running the Vanilla Orange Rom, my main PC OS is Vista if that makes any difference.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cassio:

though i did install some original htc apps and skin to make it more touchy and less orangy

let me know if you need a beta tester...i'm totally up for it

also testing SIM and CID unlock as well (if it exists...not sure)

For a quick howto (does assume some knowledge though), see my post here:

Obviously I have only dumped a Kaiser ROM, but procedure should be pretty much the same.

hi,

tried that, it says "Could not update itsutils.dll to current version, maybe it is inuse? try restarting you device or restart activesync, or maybe your device is application locked." tried the first two, but not sure how to check if my dual is app-locked

that said, it does start with cpoying d:\blah\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll, and i can't open WCE:\ in start->run either...maybe this is the cause of the problem?

i dunno, i'm just guessing with my severely limited wm knowledge :P

thanks!

WCE is not a path you can use... It just means Windows CE device.
