I don´t know any app that can do that, but...unless you want to crack other´s network...If you do not remember your wi-fi password, there is always the option to reset the router to default settings and re-configure it again...
Regards.

Yeah that's always an idea but my computer is fine on it as it is sorted that it is always connected. Maybe it'll come to a reset haha. What do you mean by cracking?
Thanks

When you say "network @ home" does that mean your on a wifi router tied to a computer ? If so log into router home page and you should be able to find/change your password.

Need help!

I just recieved my HTC P3300 yesterday
and the thing DOESNT go online
its connected to my home wifi network yet when I use Pocket IE it simply says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings."
WTF?
Can I not use wifi on this smartphone? What am I doing wrong, and please feel free to flame me, I'm new to all this so I really need helpful opinions.
Does No one know how to resolve this issue?

Hi,
If you tried to connect with your router, do you used the same script (WPA, ...) for this? Do you entered the password for your WiFi-network? Please let us know, what you´ve done to get access via WiFi.
There was WPA-PSK encryption on my network at first. Then I removed it, connected to the network again, still gave me the same error.

Pocket IE problem with Wifi (WM6)

I upgraded my ROM to the official Cingular WM6 (got it here). I have a problem with pocket IE on any connection other than GPRS/EDGE/3G.
I cannot browse anything with Pocket IE over wifi/active sync. I tried doing other stuff like checking my email and that works so I know its not the wifi settings on my PC. I also tried to connect my PSP and my NDS and both worked so its not some port problem.
Has anyone encountered this and does anyone know of a solution?
I have a problem with PIE not displaying graphics in full resolution. They are all down sized. view -> desktop no longer shows them at full size.
I'm using vp3gs wm6, with IE cache to card.
Any hints on how to restore graphics to their full size? I'm trying to view my network traffic graphs, and when they are downsized, they become useless. I was running Custel's 1.3 for months without issue.
Thanks!

I found the fix on the WIKI. It had to do with the had coded proxy that they put on the ROM. Deleting 1 key fixed it. If you encounter the same, look under Hermes_Problems of the WIKI.
i am having this same exact problem...off to the wiki!
edit: awesome, seems to be working well so far, thanks for the heads up!
and here is the fix if you don't feel like searching ( and who does? ) and woo 100th post!
Turn off hard coded proxy into IE
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings] The default setting (that uses the proxy) is:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000000 Change it to:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000001 Or simply delete it. It's more of the fact that if it's there and =0 it's used. if it's missing it's not used. But changing it to =1 will also make it disable. This way you can simply change the value back without re-adding the seting back in.
For some reason, the registry entry above will occasionally revert from =1 to =0, causing IE's proxy to be active again. Deleting the registry entry prevents this from happening.

Or...............
y'all could just use the Enable/Restore Proxy icons already provided in the ROM (Programs | Proxy Manager). Guess which registry key they flip...

I gave this a shot cause I realized I had the same issue. It didn't work for me. I don't know how to edit the registry yet. Could you point in the direction to do that. The first time I did it it worked without problems. I did a hard reset and after that it didn't work any more. Any tips.

Well, if you do a hard reset it's going to re-enable the proxy by default. I've never seen the Proxy Manager not work, let's put it that way. That said, if you go installing other settings cabs, etc... all bets are off (at least with my ROM, they are...).
Salute to you all!
Salute to you all.
I had this problem long times ago.
It's solved now.
Thanks.
Disabling Proxy worked for Pocket IE, but...
I'm having trouble trying to get Windows Live to work off WiFi rather than connect via GPRS/UMTS. Has anyone else run into this problem and if so, is there any way to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
-Mike
I re-disabled the proxy. I guess it may be because I am at work right now and the wireless is crapy. I can't get anything other than a local connection on my PC. So I'll let you know later

I am using the official DOPOD WM6 version, and such "proxy manager" does not exist under "programs".

The only way i have found to do this is to go to CommManager and turn off "Phone" and enable WiFi and then sign into Windows Live, and then go back to CommManager and Enable Phone again! it forces it to connect to wifi rather than the choice between wifi and gprs stuff
hope that helps

enter button problems?

This might be an easy fix or just no fix. But here is my problem.
When I try to get my school's Wifi network, internet explorer goes to the schools login page for the information. Fine. The problem is when I enter my username and password to use the Wifi, there is no login button on the webpage. Also, the enter button does not execute the page. So basically I can't use the wifi bc i can't enter the info!!! Is there like another way possibly to make the page go? Am I missing something or is it just a lost cause. Thanks

Did you try another web app, (opera for example)
hello, i got a problem too...
there is no enter button on the keyboard for the rom [MODROM]scamble_v01.2[CM6.1.3]
is that possible?

[Q] Wi-Fi Connection Issue?

Okay, so this is a really weird issue that I found out with my HTC Tilt2 while it was running Android, and I have a feeling it might have something to do with the WEP code (Even though I've tried it 20+ times...)
Anyways, whenever I try to connect to my home network on Android, it always goes through the same process of *Connecting...* *Sending...* *Connecting...* *Disconnected*, as if it just pings the router to check for a connection, then disables itself. Whenever I try it anywhere else however, I do not get this issue. I haven't found another location with another WEP key to try and see if its just that part of it that is unstable, but it's just a thesis. It's either that or my network, which, at this point, I wouldn't doubt if it was.
So... Anyone else getting or had this issue and solved it? Of connecting to a Wi-Fi network with a WEP key and getting *Connecting...* *Sending...* *Connecting...* *Disconnected*?
Edit: I did a bit more research and discovered that WEP is the only thing that doesn't work. Anybody got a reason other than it just doesn't work? Maybe something to do with the kernel or...?
WEP is an extremely insecure (unsecure?) protocol. Even if XDAndroid did support it, why would you want to use it? WPA/WPA2 are much, MUCH more secure and harder to crack than WEP is - with simple packet injection software, any 13 year old script kiddie can pop open your wifi.
I guess it is better than no security whatsoever if you are concerned about AP pirates, but not much. Every device in the last 5 years I'd say should support WPA/WPA2. So don't worry about WEP not being supported, it's horrid!
I think it is a kernel issue, but I don't see that being a priority for the devs to fix.

I looked into that a bit and just decided to upgrade my WEP to a WPA connection. Don't think my parents or brother we're too happy about me doing it, but from what you've said, it should be a lot better for both me and them.

Ha, well they only have to type in the new passcode once, assuming they save it!

Yep, and now I kind of understand why WPA is better than WEP. If you can figure out the paraphrase code behind it, then it's all easy to decode and translate and get someone's WEP code. Plus, it's a open encryption (which I think you already stated)
The more you know XD
WiFi connection issue
I AM CURRENTLY RUNNING MY TOUCH PRO 2 WITH HTC Rhod.2.1.Sense.061610 WITH KERNEL FROM AUG 30 2010, ALL I DID WAS FROM HTC Rhod.2.1.Sense.061610 CHANGE THE KERNEL AND ZIMAGE AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE WORKING ALRIGHT FOR ATLEAST FOR 1 DAYS BUT ONLY PROBLEM THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH THIS BUILD IS THE BATTERY DRANNING OUT SO FAST CAN'T EVEN GET 4 HRS OUT OF IT......BUT WIFI, SOUND, IN CALL AUDIO EVERYTHING IS WORKING EXPECT AS ALL WE KNOW THAT BT , CAMERA AND CAMCORDER IS NOT WORKING .......HAPPY TESTING ......FEEDBACK WELCOME
@ QuentinX5
I have the exact same issue as you i just got android running on my TP2 and get the connect disconnect issue, i was just wondering if you could shed any light on how to switch my network from WEP to WPA, cheers

It's on your router. You change the security setting on your wireless settings from WEP to WPA. Then any PC/device that connects to your router wirelessly will have to type in the code again.
Could you elaborate more by "it's on your router" do you mean going to the actual model numbers router and connection to it? or can it be done through internet configuration on the computer

You have a wireless router correct? There's a configuration page on that router where you secure it with a password - is this not familiar to you? Router's don't ship with wifi secured, you have to put the password on the router...
There's a configuration page you need to go to figure it out. You can put your make/model router in portforward.com to see the steps to get into your particular router.
Thank you for the help, i have now changed the password and switch from WEP

[Q] wifi problem

i have a wifi issue on my dhd, i accidentally tap the "forget" button on one of my wireless network.. can i reverse this action? i mean is there a method which i can use to discover that lost network? i tried to enter it manually, but no success.. somebody help me pls.
Go in range of your "lost" network... Select the "lost" network from WiFi list menu... Enter passcode... Profit!
sir how can i find the "lost network" theres no option like that, my phone is desire hd.. can u be more specific, tnx
You take it seriously? I mean he just made a joke.
What he meant is just retype your password. There's no way you could recover the lost password unless you wrote it somewhere else.
8penned from my blazing fast DHD

Indeed, you need to go to Wireless and Network/ WiFi settings and chose your network and re-enter your password.
Apologies for being sarcastic, but I think I was in a good mood yesterday lol.
Cheers
but the problem is i cannot locate the network anymore ... and i remember that it has no password
That indicates to me that it is not your wifi, and that you probably shouldnt have access to it.
If you still chose to connect to a wifi that isn't your's, let me remind you that it is illegal - and from that point of view i don't think we can help you...
