[Q] Internet randomly stops working

Hey guys I just got my HTC Desire (Telus version) today and so far im loving. I setup the 3G to work with my carrier (Fido) and everything works fine and dandy, but the problem is after a while of not using the phone and then unlocking it to go back on the internet doesn't seem to work. The 3G and WiFi are still on but I need to turn them off then back on for it to work. Has anyone had problems with that before?
Cheers

Okay so I pinpointed the problem, supposedly when the screen turns off and the phone goes into Power Save Mode the WiFi loses connection. Does anyone have any ideas about what I can try? I bought the phone and its running android 2.2 and it is running Cyamogenmod-6.0.2-Desire.
Should I downgrade to android 2.1 just to see if it may work? Or maybe a different rom? I'm open to anything right now as I think I may sell the phone cause of this problem.

I don't have this problem with NeoPhyte's AuraxTSense 8.0 rom, I would kindly suggest that you give it a try.

[Q] I need help with CM 6.1 RC1

i installed this about a week or two ago on my phone and everything worked perfectly,i loved it. but now for some reason,my wifi does NOT work. It scans,finds,and connects,but does nothing after that. no web pages load,the market doesnt load,NADA. Anyone got any ideas? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated

Reboot if you havent already, and remove that access point and re-add it. If that doesnt help, reflash ROM

tried all the above,backed up to 6.0 and wifi worked,did a complete re flash of the rom and still nothing =(
btw-i dont know too much about flashing,re-flashing,so everything i do is through Rom Manager,dont know if that makes a difference

I have had issues with cm now and then. When i reflash, i do a wipe. If that doesnt work, i let the phone update when its in bootloader which sets up the enginering version of espresso. I then reflash from there and good as new. If that still doesnt work, redownload rom and flash. Occasionally the file may corrupt on the sd card. That has happened to me.

Try turning on bluetooth first then wifi. I read it in one of the CM threads and it works for me. I had the same problem.

I think this is still the trick for any CM based ROM

Well it is only a release candidate. I had major issues on RC1. I am running build 171 of the nightlies, everything is stable more or less. Wifi will occasionally glitch out, but that's partly my router I think. In any case, rebooting the phone or the router normally fixes it.

[Q] IceColdSandwich 4.0.3 wifi drops

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum, thanks for all the information and nice tutorials.
I rooted my phone from the default and latest HTC sence version to the Ice Cold Sandwich 3.0.0.
I really like the new version, however I notice some wifi drops as I had before a specific HTC update.
Does anybody know a solution for this problem? I can't post in the developer forum due too not enough posts...
Thanks in advance.

The ROM is a port so plenty of things are bound not to work at times. It's a common issue and is easily solved by flashing a more stable ROM.

you could try WiFix Manager from the marked see if that helps you..
i think most of the icecream builds have many bugs yet..
and proberly many with the same problem as you
so if you used the search function under the rom you use
you would proberly see many with the same problem and fix to it

The wifi doesn't "drop", it's just that ICS has different levels of measurement than HTC, so 2 bars on sense may be 1 bar on ICS

Thanks, but i'm really noticing drops and even dead spots like i experienced before.
The HTC update than solved this for me.
When I for example hold my hand fixed above my phone the wifi signal will drop very fast and after some time the connection is even lost.
As I said I also had this problem before with the HTC software, however there has been one update regarding wifi problems and this solved this issue for me.
I don't know whether there is a possibility to see what has been solved in this update and to implement it somehow.
kind regards

That's because you're blocking the antena inside which makes the signal poor. Try not to cover the plastic in the back of the phone all the way.

I got the same problem of dropping wifi connection but I managed to work. I used to run ttorrent even I m not downloading anything.
There's an option "best wifi...." Something in advance wifi menu in sense ROMs, that solves dropping wifi connection.

That's a Sense only option. AOSP doesn't have that but has a different set of setups which can enable better wifi performance. There is also an application called WiFix which fixes some known issues about wifi.

That WiFix doesn't help me for constant connection, I am running ttorrent on background.

[Q] COS-Bravo-ICS - problem reconnecting with 2G or 3G after Wifi connection

Hi,
I'm using the COS-Bravo - ICS [21-May-2012] on my phone. Since the first version I flashed I've been having the same problem, but as the ROM is under development, I thought the problem would get fixed in some update. It still hasn't so I'm reporting it.
When loosing a WIFI connection, the phone must switch to a 2G or 3G network. This doesn't happen. Mostly the WIFI icon disappears as it disconnects and the signalstatus doesn't change (no Edge, Gprs or Hdspa is added). When I go to Airplane mode and back or when I switch between 2G/3G, the connection is repaired and the data-connection works again.
I've also noticed this problem with other ICS roms (Sanvold and BCM)
Does anybody have a clue what this could be?

Radio
What radio version do you have?
Its recommended to have the latest radio.
You can find the latest radio here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687464

Of course the latest radio. ;-)

I have the same issue. When turning wifi off, my Desire doesn´t get a mobile connection though it´s showing, that i would be connected.
Switching to 3g and back doesn´t work for me.

Same problem here with Sandvolds ICS
I have this problem nearly 2 years now on every rom (stock eclair, froyo and cm7) and on every radio version, so I guess it is hardware depended.
Correct me if i am wrong.
What I do is switching to airplane mode and back, so i have to enter my PIN again.
Maybe there is a soltution, cause this is really drving me nuts
Thx

With the newest version (01-06-2012) the problem seems to be solved (for me). Perhaps you should give it a try.

I´ve been glad to hasty. It still does not work. Neither does it to switch between 2g and 3g. But the airplane-"hack" does work for me too.

I have same problem with COS ROM. Mobile internet connection after using telephone as wifi modem do'nt working successfully.... i need reboot phone, airplane mode not solving this problem..

Hi!
Same problem here (HTC Desire Bravo, GSM, Cos-Bravo 1st June, latest radio).
This "bug" is present in every ICS Rom and as well in some GB Roms I tried. So far, the RSK ROM Sense 3.5 with amaze cam doesn't have this issue.
I hope someone will get to it. I'm more than ready to donate if someone will be able to solve this out with next build.
Thanks.

To judge from my own experience - I'm still seeing this problem six months later - it has not been fixed yet. Or does it only affect a subset of Desires?
I'm experiencing it using a GB ROM - Mildwild 4.7, though it was there in 4.6 as well. I can only assume it is in the ROMs, as I get it on two different handsets, a PVT3 running radio-5.17.05.23 and a PVT1 rrunning radio-5.11.05.27.

Remove the skipbrokendatacall entry in build.prop file. This will not completely resolve the problem but will make it very much manageable.

Check your APN Settings and try to set APN-Type to default only.

[Q] HTC One X Internation + CyanogenMod 10.1 Wifi Issues

Hello All, I am facing an issue whereby my WiFi reception is nearly hopeless after I updated to CM10.1. Anybody got a fix for this?

Hi,
i am facing the same issue. My Wifi is nearly down to no connection althoug I am only 2meters away from my router. I tried installing a new Baseband-version (Endeavoru_Radio_5.1204.162.29) but still no change.
I have CyanogenMod 10.1 with Android 4.2.2 on my HTC One X.
Any suggestions would be great!
Thanks
JamFX1

Same Issue
I have exactly the same problem as the 2 of you. Have either of you manages to sort this out ?

I'm also having WiFi problems with my HTC One X (running CM10.2). I can connect to a network and after a minute or so the connection is dropped... Other forums suggest it's an HTC issue but since I'm running CM10.2 I suspect it's something else. Any pointers are appreciated.

Its not an HTC issue im sure of it. Too many people have this problem only with the Cyanogenmod. The stock rom has no issues. I tested. Im on the latest RC version and it also has that problem. Get more than 3 meters away from the router and BAM. no signal

Well I have swapped roms to test. The stock rom works perfect with regard to wifi. Not a huge deal for me, but would be nice to get this working.
