WiFi will not work

Dear All,
I have a PDA2K with ROM Version 1.40.00 WWE and ExtROM 1.40.176 WWE.
When I try to connect to a network using WiFi the PDA2k connects without any porblems to all networks. But when I try to use WiFi to surf the web with IE or use SkyPe the PDA2k always tries to connect using GPRS. Has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Hugh

looks like you have the same problem with mine.
At home i've managed to setting a wireless access point using a WIFI router (Linksys WRT54G), the xda's wifi status is connected with the router (as an accesspoint) but everytime tried to opening a webpage, it keep show the error message "the page cannot be found".
is it possible to utilizing the access point scheme above using my O2 Xda IIs?....
does anybody has sucessfull experience with the scheme i've tried to use above?...please share it with us.....

Has anyone figured out why gprs settings & exchange password are disappearing??

Has anyone figured out why gprs settings & exchange password are disappearing everytime you do a soft reset!!!!!! I flashed to the Dopod new SEA rom from the official HTC 1.23 for Europe. Is there a trick to stop it from disappearing after soft reset or the rom is bogus??

PS: I am writing from the trinity so I apologize if this topic was discussed

its not happening to me!

I am not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but I also seem to have hard-spl 1.07ds and the 3.03 that came with the dopod rom installed in my bootloader. how I know? well if I try to downgrade to the official htc 1.23, I get the 1.07ds in the bootloader and it fails, the I try to reinstall the new dopod wm6 and it works. I have super cided device & I can write to my extended rom. could this be the reason my gprs username and password and my exchange password keep disappearing afTer a soft reset? I made a hard resetusing the two buttons to get it to factory specs & it is still doing it. I have no installed programs.

i don't believe 1.07 is hard-spl, and i don't think you can actually have two spl's on there at the same time. I think one is just being overwritten by the other.

thanks for the clarification. however why in God's name am I losing my connection settings and exchange password everytime I soft reset when I have no programs installed or previously installed cooked roms. I remember the Dopod ANZ version might have had something like this and maybe dopod pulled the rom and promised to put another one in few days. I could be wrong about that.
thanks,
gilbert

I'm also experiencing the same problem and I couldn't find a solution for it.

Have you done a hard-reset after flashing?

Just discovering the flashing thing, so I'm not expert, but as far as I understand 1.07ds is not a hard-spl, but one that is pushed onto the phone by the update utility. To know what "resident" bootloader is on the phone, U need to enter the bootloader mode by pressing power+camera button plus doing a soft-reset.
Furthermore, to avoid installation of another bootloader (like the 3.03), I installed an hard-spl (olipro 1.30) and I put the phone into bootloader mode manually prior to flashing. Otherwise, the udate utility pushes the SPL 1.07ds which does not prevent the installation of the new 3.03 bootloader.
If you have the 3.03 on your device and want to downgrade, have a look at http://trinityguides.info at the Dopod WM6 Guide.
As to the disappearing Exchange password, I do not experience this pb.
Bye

yes, it is happening to me also on SEA version.
to be honest I was not overly impressed with the official SEA version so went back to AX3L's great ROM.
as for why the exchange and GPRS settings get lost, the only thing I seem to see is that it is if I installed or uninstalled some app that needed a reboot. it was not one particular app but I seemed to see the problem after installing / uninstalling themes and the kaiser home plug.
have you done any of these and seen the issue?

My pop3 account was gone after my FIRST flash with WM6 and install of the Kaiser home plugin. But then I did a hard reset, flash WM6 SEA again, and again hard reset. No problems at all anymore... Thats why I stated the hard reset

after hours of playing with the my bloody machine, i seem to have pinpointed the bloody problem. it is the new windows messenger doing all this crap. I am not sure how as I did not go through the codes but when I don't set up windows messenger and merge the contacts with the device, even if i do a thousand soft reset, the connection to the gprs automatically comes on and my exchange syncs no problem. but when you set up messenger with the device, you start getting the same crap of disappearing gprs settings and exchange password!!!

Me too.SEA version

What a total pain! Guess I'll stick with just the radio upgrade for now then.
I was going to suggest that if things seem funky after a ROM flash it is always worth trying a re-flash in case something just went a little awry first time around. But the fact others have found the same issue seems to clearly warn that this is not a one off misfortune.
Many thanks for letting everyone know... and good luck with straightening it out.

different experience
I had lost my Exchange passward and the Cingular GPRS setting info a couple of times, but after my back up today, I lost all the settings to the point that I couldn't even connect to Wi-Fi. I hadn't done a hard reset after my flash, so I am doing that now. I never set up Messenger, so I can't imagine how that could be the problem.

Would that be the same problem as the device password that some others were screaming in other threads about wrong device password?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317841
I would guess that there's a credential database WM uses to store usernames and passwords, just like your desktop windows OS, and it either got corrupted on the memory or failed to write back to the filesystem after resetting the device.
The result would then be lost passwords, including device passwords, gprs, exchange, mails, wifi...

I have the ANZ official ROM and see the following problems (which I reported a while ago)
1) GPRS password occasionally gets blanked.
2) WEP password lost occasionally
3) Windows Live password lost occasionally .
I can't figure out what causes it- I rarely soft reset, preferring to turn off.
The biggest PITA is that my device code changed, which means I cannot use TT traffic until I get a letter from HTC.

Hmm, i'm suffering this problem also. It is mentioned in one of the various topics of the WM6 - Roms but really doný know where anymore. Anyone knows if this is possible to tackle?
Thanx!

It's not the solution I guess.
I use Prophet, but this is only topic of it.
I can't make a new account, it sais 'Name exists'. But it isn't showing up, and can't find it in the registry ...
Any ideas were to remove the old ones?

No problems for a while
I followed some guidance after having the problems, and for a good many weeks it's been fine (maybe over a month).
I set all the passwords (web, WIFI) and BT pairing.
Then I turned the device off with the power buton (NOT soft reset).
SInce then, it has all stuck.

Change modified IIs back to original ROM

Hi,
I've upgraded my XDA IIs a few times now and am currently using WM6 (ROM version 5.60.00 WWE) having followed the instructions on this website. I am beginning to get various errors and crashed on my device so I thought I would revert to the original manufacturers ROM (o2 - WM2003 - UK).
I went to their website and downloaded the ROM but when I tried to load the ROM back onto my device I received an error telling me that the ROM I was loading on to my device was from a different country/region than the one currently on my device and the installation had to stop.
I am assuming that somewhere in the uprading of my device (which I understand was completely at my own risk) the country of origin or location of the device/ROM has changed or has been replaced by one from a different location/region or one that has no defined location or region.
My biggest problem with the WM6 ROM is that my BlueTooth GPS device doesn't seem to work with the TomTom software anymore. TomTom can identify my GPS device but doesn't track any satellite, therefore it's pretty pointless. My Radio version is 1.12.00, all my COM ports are configured correctly as is my Baud rate. My TomTom version is 6.010.
Everything used to work perfectly with the WM2003 ROM and if I can't revert back or solve my problem then I may just bin it. Before that though I will try another BlueTooth GPS device... just incase!
Cheers.

Maybe you can try the latest ROM WM6.5 21189 before you revert back to wm20003. You can find all the stock ROMs in our FTP or you can xplode he got everything.

i had the same problem when going back to wm2003se for storage resizing purposes. as the roms published here are WWE roms, for your first upgrade you need to use Maupgrade_noID.exe and put the device into bootloader mode, for reverting you have to do the same. in my case, the german MDA3 rom aldo declined country error (WWE) and then even "this rom is not designed for your device", since uit identified as blueangels, where german devices are heavily branded and for the official update need to indentify as MDAs.
so just do the same as in upgrading:
1. Bootloader
2. MAupgrade_noID
and you will have no problem. it is just a matter of the carrier protecting their customers from bricking their devices, if they are unexperienced and maybe really picked the wrong device's rom or people from other countries try and steal their branded roms (yeah, like that's ever gonna happen!).
EDIT: I just saw the reason for going back is a bluetooth problem. I will think about it and repost here, maybe that is solvable without going back, because wm6.x is so nice, nobody should use 2003 anymore

Thanks for your replies.
I think I will try the WM6.5 first as you're quite right that WM2003 is not very nice at all!

I want to revert my pc
to Windows 95....
the first i think in... was the compatibility on apps.
It was just a little sarcasm.

OK, got an update on my bluetooth problem...
WM6.5 installed no problem, looks good and seems to be a bit quicker and smoother. Also, it gives more information in the bluetooth connections list than WM6 did as to what the status is of my bluetooth devices.
My device lists my bluetooth GPS as "paired" but "not connected". When I try to connect I get an error saying "Your device did not connect with BN909GR. The connection failed or the passcode is incorrect."
It looks more and more like it's my bluetooth GPS receiver which is knackered.

Have you tried pairing the GPS with another device? I assume it should pair with any device, ie another phone etc?

Hi,
Yes, I can pair my bluetooth receiver with ordinary mobile phones. I cannot test its functionality though as neither of the phones I have available to pair it with have any soft ware which uses the GPS receiver.
I haven't yet got hold of another Bluetooth GPS receiver to try with my BA...

Please Help !!!

I have just recently got an G4 xda exec, fully unlocked and i have upgraded to TML 8.7.1 and i have also got a 3 sim, but when i put my 3 sim card in the device it says that it is an orange sim
I have tried with my other sim card and that is perfect but it is not a 3g sim so i really want 3g to work
Any Ideas ???

Have you run the Connection Setup? I can't remember if TML871 has built one in his ROM or if it's auto-run. Either way, if you run it again, you should be able to select 3sim instead of orange.

Trying that now, it did have that setting, and i have not tried that one before
EDIT: I have tried to do that, it still says orange and when i go into the connection setup it says error with the database

I have had another look at it and it shows that i am on roming signal, but when i was on wm5 it showed UTMS when i put the sim in, so if it is just my signal or not i do not know
but thanks for the help anyway

ALls I can think is to try a different ROM, and see if it's a problem with Tomal's ROM. It would switch to roaming if it can't find your network and goes through another one (eg Orange). Are you still using the same Radio that you did with WM5? Perhaps you should try another Radio - people seem to like 1.15.

Or... find a .CAB with your network settings and just install by hand. I had some problems with settings provided in various ROMs, so always carry Voda NZ .CAB on my SD. Just in case

i have tried using different settings, so i am now trying a different 6.1 ROM to see if it is a problem with this rom
Thanks for everyone's help

I Have been able to fix the problem, i have used the AllmostOfficial 1.2 Professional rom and I went into the phone options and then network and manually selected 3 off the list in preferred networks and added it onto the list and now it works
Thanks for everyone's help and support as well as the good availability of the site.

wifi is not working after changing radio

I've beeing using the 1.00.25.00 radio in my device and everything was working, but I liked the fact that the blackstone radio 1.17.25.09 could possibly handle gps and wifi faster. So I downloaded it from here and installed it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572555
First I had to security unlock my diamond, it already had hardspl and them, I've installed the radio. Sadly, the radio didn't worked. The device begun to restart automatically just after showing the windows mobile starting logo (just after the Touch Diamond black screen with red versions numbers in the corner). I tried some other versions of that radio, some other radios, but no one worked (the same issue). So I've put back the 1.00.25.00 and it started windows mobile again.
But now the wifi is not working properly. It can find and connect to newtorks without problems, but can't download any internet data. I have tried about 5 different wifi routers in different places. Those used to work before the radio changes. I also tried hard reset, mtty, other radios, other roms, other hardspl, signed, unsigned and the same behavior, wifi connects, but no internet at all (tested with opera and weather).
If I turn wifi off I can download weather normally with edge data connection.
Anyone can help me?
(I not sure it this is the right place to write about it)

Is there any mtty commands for the radio too?
Maybe formating the radio rom and installing it again could help, who knows...

I have also tried to remove security unlock (just like was before) and put back the same hard spl (version 1.37). The wifi still not working
I really need some help, can't live without wifi (just kidding).

Well, the wifi seems to be partially working, I've tried HTC Debug Tools and used NetworkTestPPC.exe, it's a ping tool. It could pings LAN addresses normally (192.168...), but couldn't ping internet IPs, just like google's 64.233.163.104, always returns timeout (err=11010).
It's seems to be some software problem, but I didn't changed anything after hard reseting in anytime. Just did like I always used to do, installed the rom and tried to use wifi.

I've also tested LAN using total commander and it worked through wifi. But still no internet. I can figure out what could it be.
