Ever since going from MyFroyo RC4 to RC5 & RC6 (and even the Cyanogen RC01, I have had problems with my wifi.
I am posting here to see if anyone else is experiencing these problems, and to find out what changed between RC4 and RC5.
I have no cell service at my house, so when I flash a new ROM, I need to leave the house and go to an area where I get service before I can connect to the Google Servers to set up my device. When on Wifi, I also have problems downloading Google items in the market (such as Google Search Bar) and can't even use Google.com to search for anything. It times out. I can, however, use other websites and download other items (once I've set up my device remotely).
If I am setting this up over Edge or 3G, there are never any problems.
If I re-flash back to MyFroyo RC4, I can use my wifi with no problem to do everything I need.
I really love the updates since RC4 - but am worried that I'll be left in the dust since all the builds since RC4 have had this issue for me. :-/
I'm in the same boat and experience the same WiFi issues.

I've never had a single Wifi issue, although I never really tested on RC1 too much. I'm currently running Eugene's newest CM6, have you tried that one yet?

supposed to be a cyanogenmod issue though i havent experienced it myself (i also have horrible service 1-2 bars edge max) using wifi everything loads up fast and everything downloads just fine! but if i were you i would try the nightlies they are supposed to have fixed the problem by now if im not mistaken
I've experienced a lot of this too. Marker downloads were pretty much not happening for me, no matter what - Wifi or Data. On data, it would download but never install. On Wifi no images in the market would load and no download would activate. I also couldn't use Google.com or sign into Gmail via the browser or other Google services. I did a lot of searching and heard it could be Google.
What I did to fix it... I did some nandroids, I did some wipes and updates and complete formats, etc. What I finally think I had was a problem in my packages.xml file where so many programs were mismatched due to Froyo's ability to use apps2fat32. I think at some point some nandroiding I had done,etc screwed up my package assignments and then I just fresh installed and DO NOT BACK DATA/SETTINGS UP WITH GOOGLE! haha, I honestly think that had a lot to do with it also...Go into your Privacy and turn auto restore off, turn backup data off, then reset your device with a wipe of it all and such, boot up and don't select backup with Google. I've had no more issues really.

I've actually tried the new nightly's and still have the same problems. I've also tried completely wiping it and starting from scratch- and made sure not to back up w/ GOOGLE servers- but to no avail.
I wonder if anyone on here can figure out what changed between MyFroyo RC4 and RC5 that could cause this - seems something is blocking the Google Synch. I've also experienced the problems mentioned above regarding the market items not downloading, no images, etc. Just seems weird that it worked completely fine before RC5, which came out around the same time as the Cyanogen 6 Slide RC1
From my personal experience I'd have to say that wifi is slightly bugged. Drops randomly and occassionally won't detect my network when other Android devices will (any encryption, which is for suckers anyway )
At least I know I'm not the only one w/ this problem. I couldn't find a cyanogen defect for this issue.
Same here. I have no wifi. My g1 connects just fine and my hd2 but on the slide its a no go. Ive tried everything but eventually just gave up. Im using Eugenes Ota update. Im not sure if its just the slide in general but my wifi doesn't work period. It'll connect but if i load up youtube or try the web I get a no connection error. Its very peculiar. Incredibly peculiar.
I am having the same issue. I noticed people talked about it with CM6 rc1 but not everyone was having the issue and the subject died off. Ive tried reloading, wiping everything, htcclay's new version but nothing seems to help. The wifi is just strange will work for a page or two than fail to load or loads half way. Also tried on several different networks. Does anyone know if the driver is the same in eugenes as in these later ones?
After wiping and keeping a good eye on everything, the issue I have with Wifi and the browser is that sometimes it just hangs about 75% page load and doesn't really change unless I leave the phone go for a bit and wait for it to load.
Downloaded Opera Mini (only browser I could find that doesn't use the native browser). With Opera, I've actually hadn't had any loading issues or anything weird like that happen. So many a possible partial-bypass is using another browser? It helped me, just thought I'd share.

Same bugginess happening here, too. Iffy, at best. Other than that and of course the non-necessary FN and CAPS light, this is the only issue, anymore, that I can see.

Thx donkey72!
I've been having problems signing in to Google Talk for a while now. It says "Could not connect to server. Will retry shortly" and never connects. It used to work, but for the past couple of weeks I've been having nothing but issues. I have tried reflashing my ROM, and have tried other ROMs and still have the issue.
My market is also pretty much broken, I can't download anything. It just gets hung up on starting download. I know these two problems are related so I'm hoping that if I get to the bottom of my GTalk issue then my market will work again.
Does anybody have any idea what I can do to get this working again?
In case it matters, I am running Fresh 3.2.0.0.
I had this too. I've been turning 3g off (and getting insane battery life, btw), but my google talk takes forever to reconnect. Market is also hanging at downloading.
After leaving my data on for awhile, everything is ok.
I'm also on Fresh 3.2.
Yeah I left my data on all day today and it's still not working :/
I saw these symptoms when my WiFi was enabled. It turned out that GTalk couldn't connect to its servers through my firewall. In my case, it was because the necessary outbound TCP and UDP ports where closed. I found that GTalk needs several outbound ports open to work properly.
In your firewall configuration you may need to:
* Enable UDP connections to anywhere on any port.
* Enable TCP connections to anywhere on port 5222.
* Enable TCP connections to anywhere on port 443.
After I made these changes, I was able to successfully sign into GTalk and download from the market.

I just got a new EVO and am running the commercial rom for a week or so just to see how fast it is out of the box for a while.
Anyways, I have been having a ton of issues with Gtalk doing the same thing, it never signs in via wifi and even then when I disable wifi and just use 3g it hangs and gives the message you mentioned. Sometimes it logs in, it causes problems with market and chrome to phone (c2p) too. Power cycling the 3g radio is not helping.
I got to the root of my problem a few weeks ago. What I found was that if I sign out and then back in to Talk on my PC, it starts working right away on my phone and then the market comes back up. It's a workaround but it does work for me EVERY time.
Same problems here.. I constantly have connection issues. Both through WiFi and 3g
I'm having problems with this too. Any permanent solutions?
I believe its on Google's part.
it is 3g network problem, try with wifi or after airplane mod and has to sign in

I'm referring to the inability to sign in to Google Talk or download Market apps when connected via the Sprint network, as described here:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=815345
To summarize... When connected using Sprint 3G, I often get these problems
- Can't sign in to Google Talk (I get the message "Cannot connect to server, will retry shortly"
- Can't download or update apps (I get stuck on "Starting Download...")
- Other internet features work OK
- Switching to Wifi solves the problem
no problems at all for me
why is this here ?? should be in
Q&A
and no im not
Yeah just started today though?

Not as much problems as you're having posting in the right section.
BOOOOOO-YAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
lol......j/k.....I couldn't help it. To answer your question: No, I haven't. All my rom/kernel/software info is in the sig. I've had an update/download hang on "starting download" before, but I'll just cancel the download and restart it and that usually fixes the hiccup. If not, it's nothing a quick reboot won't fix. Try clearing the data and cache from the market app.
P.S. If switching to WiFi solves the issue, it could be poor reception that is causing the said problems to happen. I get very poor 3G reception in the building I work in, and many things have problems working when I'm not on WiFi.
I have this problem as well. If you do find a solution, let us know! I've had this problem for a while now but could not pinpoint when it began. I know I didn't have this problem on 2.1 though. Definitely not due to weak signal (Chicago).

Were you running 2.1 on the same device?
And, I'm guessing you were rooted both with 2.1 and 2.2, right?

omg.. classic response. job well done sir. i am still laughing.
+1 on the advice too
uninstalling the market update usually solves the problem for good. Ive noticed it on hybrid fr83/91 roms as well
rooted with fresh and kingkernel 10 and have had apps hanging after downloading and wont install/update...
I had those problems for a while a couple days ago. They said it was a network problem. It resolved after about 8 hours.
No problems here. Using 135 nightly.

I was having no problems at all for a while but yesterday market downloads over wifi no longer work for me. Everything downloads fine over 3G just not wifi. Weird. If anybody knows how to fix this I would be eternally grateful.

Go under applications and clear data for vending...sometimes files get crossed. Will fix market problem
I don't have anything called vending in applications
this is a known problem and has been for months....
usually if you uninstall the market updagte the problem goes away for good.
also try a non hybrid rom thats not based on fr83/91
fresh, evervolv, cm, evo nonsense work
I've had this exact problem for a while now. Its incredibly annoying. What usually works for me is stopping both talk and market then clearing the date and doing the same with the HTC_checkin service.
This usually lets me download the app but not always. I haven't tried uninstalling market updates, will that remove any features like the search prediction and such?

I was having the problem with Fresh too. I just installed the new stock deodexed 3.30.651.2 ROM, and I'm STILL experiencing the issue. Very annoying!
a friend and i are having the same problem except she never has a problem connecting to gchat. but when shes not signed in it she's not able to download apps from the market place.
me on the other hand there are times when i cant sign on gtalk at all, i'd either have to restart the phone or switch to wifi like the op said. oh and i'm also unable to download apps when i'm not signed in gchat.
this gets especially annoying when i'm in a middle of a conversation in gchat and i lose connection and cant log back on! and i hate using 3rd party messengers since there arent any good ones out! but trillian is starting to creep up on me.
oh i'm also rooted with fresh
I have a few issues with my 4g connection. I officialy get 4g where I live. When I connect to the 4g network I can't seem to view certain webpages with the stock browser. The page will load but will not load completely. Sometimes it the loading bar gets stuck at around 75% and the page never loads. I've tried stopping and reloading the page, but still doesn't load properly.
If I connect to a WiFi connection, any page will load with out a hiccup on the stock browser.
If I am on 4g and try to use another browser, the only one that works is opera mobile....
Does anyone else have the same issue or maybe know how to fix this ?
Have you tried factory reset? It is odd that the page would do that with the 4G radio

I get the same issue I just keep reloading till it comes up noticed I does it with sites that take s while on my pc also might want to check of they have mobile site should help
Sent from my Evo at the edge of hell
I notice sometimes this site does just what you described on my Evo over 4G.
I usually get the titlebar and then a white screen and the bar stays around 75% as well.
I think it's just flaky 4G network issues because most days it works fine and nothing changes on my end. Since my home is in a strong 4G area I notice the signal drops out completely some days, and is stronger other days so I think they must be messing with this system still.

That's what I thought at first but when I'm on WiFi I have no issues loading pages. It's really only when I browse the web that I have issues with. I can do other things on WiFi without a problem like browse on tapatalk or download files from the web or the market place with no issues.....
Also, opera browser is the only browser that works. The rest do not load pages properly.
I had the same issue, pages would not load on 4g only on 3g or wifi. I did a factory reset and same proplem. I had a custom rom so I decided to unroot and install the stock rom (pc361img) to take it back to sprint and bang it work after this. I then did the root again and havent tried another rom since then but pages load up properly now on 4g.

Thanks !!! It looks like this fixed my problem. I unrootedand went back to stock. 4g seems to work fine with the stock web browser. Then I rooted and running Sprint lovers Rom and so far so good.
Same has been happening to me for about a week now. I use Myrns as well.
Bump up, any idea?
Well, I ended up reverting back to Myrn's RLS2. Didn't have to unroot, but did have to do a wipe of everything. Tried going back to RLS3 and that doesn't fix it for me.
I don't live in a 4G area but was in 1 today while I was waiting for someone. So I decided to search online for a certain process that is always running on my phone that I though was killing the battery. Using Dolphin HD it opened google.com no problem then started acting weird. It took a while to be able to enter a search but it eventually allowed it and the results showed up quickly. No matter what one I selected, it would do what everyone else described. The last link I tried happened to be to this website and it seemed to get stuck like all the others and then I tapped the screen a few times and the full page appeared. I am also running myn latest beta. Weird.

Have you tried to un root and go back to the stock rom and see if 4g works fine?
Ok this is starting to happen again. I went from sprint lovers rom to myns newest release.
I'm gonna try to go back to Sprint lovers and see if that fixes it...if it doesnt I'll try to un-root then root again...

You probably don't have to un-root and root again, imo see if this relates to a fix on your problem.

That's not it, my rsa keys are fine. I can connect to 4g and download data without an issue, its just webpages that do not load properly while on 4g.
Anyway, I didn't unroot, I just flashed Sprint lovers Rom and now pages load fine on 4g..... maybe there is something wrong with myns Rom or something I installed...
My 4G issues have gotten worse....I can now connect to 4g, obtain ip address and actually connect to the 4g network....but I cant download anything. No data is transmitted or received....I cant load a webpage or download something from the market or even run a speed test....it wont transfer data while on 4G....3G and Wifi work fine.....just not 4G...
I checked my RSA keys and they are fine...I tried to delete my tree.xml and that didint help.
I tried to flash a different rom....didnt work.....
I tried to un-root and go back to stock...that didnt work either.....so my next step tomorrow is to take it to a sprint store and see what they can do (i do have insurance...) but before I do this, does anyone have any other suggestions?
I think I solved one of my two 4g issues.
The first issue I had was not being able to load web pages on any browser but opera mobile while on 4g. The second issue is 4g just stopped working. I can connect to the 4g network I just can't transfer any data.
I'm positive the first issue is caused by the app adfree. Once I reverted my host file and uninstalled adfree, webpages load fine in the stock browser.
I'm not sure about the second issue.... I got a refurbished evo and 4g works fine with this one......
I hope this info helps someone.
So I got my replacement phone from Verizon after my last one reset and got stuck at Verizon splash screen, and it had the newest update already installed on it. I noticed that my browser stops loading webpages and the phone has to be restarted in order to get the browser to load again. Has anyone else seen this problem or should I be concerned? I have full 4g on my signal. I try to switch to wifi and sometimes it will refresh and other times it won't
I don't have the update but the stock browser seems to lock up quite a bit. Usually force stop it and all is good when I reopen it.
