Wi-fi scan problem - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can no longer connect to wifi.
I turn it on and it scans for like half a second, returning no results, only sometimes it finds a few low-signal secure adress, only to disappear a few seconds later. If i try to connect to an open network it's stuck on "connecting" and then it disappears from the list again! It won't even show the remembered ones.
I tried flashing a different kernel, another rom, even trying the wifi on the stock froyo, but still same issues.
Anyone who could help me solve this issue?

Download wifi manager from android market. See if that works

Same issue sadly, can't find any network.

You have already tried other ROMs and kernels, but I think you have to flash another radio....
You got to search which radio version works the best with the ROM you use

I have the same problem. The guys from HTC Romania told me to sent the phone to the warranty, but the phone is rooted. I`m waiting for an unroot .
HTC Sense works for you?

Flashed all 3 radios specified in this thread:

Still nothing.
And yes HTC sense works.

Device Reboot when using WiFi or Mobile Interent

Please help. I just got used HTC Incredible.
It is S-OFF, Hboot-0.92, Radion 2.15.00.07.28 and Android 2.2
It is only work when no WiFI and not Mobile Internet.
If I turn on Mobile Interent I have up to minutes to use Interent and then device going in rebootin and white screen. Removing battery sometimes help and device starts loading but then will rebooting again.
Will changing ROM helps?
As I saw a lot of people has similar problems in USA.... may be I got bad device(
You received your DInc with S-OFF? Sounds like someone sent it in and the refurb department didn't do its job in checking the phone and reloading it... then sent it to you.
You could always flash the stock ROM back onto and see what it does.
http :// dougpiston . com/?page_id=108
is where you can get the Stock ROM from. You will need to place it on you SD card and name it PB31IMG.zip
Boot up into your HBOOT and proceed with the update
Thanks! It was on original Rom when I got it but with S-OFF! and was rebooting when try to use WiFi or Mob. Internet.
Now I'm on cyanogenmod 7 and then same problem.
Do I need play with radio version? Will it may help?
If you go back stock it will unroot you..... if you give me some more info I might be able to help..... like when you flashed cm7 did you do a full wipe and what recovery do you have
Plus did you get it from Verizon or Craigslist or something
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
Yes, I did full wipe.
Now I'm under CM7 and seems it working now more stable. So I can use interent via WiFI near 10-15 minutes. Under Mobile connection near 5-10minutes. If I do just quick connection on 30-60 second it not rebooting at all.
I got the phone from a person who, I think, take it from ebay. It has verizon sign on it.
When I got it was with original lates ROM.
I'm starting think that it is overheating. May be I can low processor speed?
Updated. Also I've installed prog called 'neocore' which does 3d benchmark testing. I need to run just 2-3 times this test and my device starts rebooting.
I had a similar problem when using custom kernels with HAVS or smartass governors on them. Do you have Set CPU or any other program that controls your processing speed/voltage? If so, try disabling them and see if you still have the problem. Some phones do not react well to under/overclocking.
im not sure what kernel comes with cm7 but some dincs dont like multitouch kernels.... and they will kick you off apps and sometimes reboot so i would try switching kernels first.. try one that is close to stock
Just back to stock ROM. And what I see, that if I disable Mobile Internet it works stable. Just turn on Mobile Internet and it starts rebooting. Stock rom has a lot of apps which connect to the internet. Even with disabled auto-update I still see how on booting 3g icons areas and arrows up-down are blinking.
As I see after connection to the mobile internet my device starts rebooting. And only one think helps - remove battery and wait several minutes, which allows boot in successfully. And then if turn off mobile access it will work well (((
Thats odd that ur phone does that. Did u try and change the radio?
Seems that is last what I can try. Or will need to sell it on parts for cheap (.
As I know radio 2.15.00.07.28 is very stable. Which one you recomend to use?
And how to be sure that it will work well with my Current ROM?
Can I install older radio? like 2.07.00.07.16? or even older?
Thanks for help!

i have an idea man maybe you should run an RUU to unroot you and format everything back to the way it was from the factory.... if that dont help it has to be a hardware issue.... let me know and ill help you through it
Thank for helping. Just not sure that unroot may have difference. But will try at last.
What I had found last days. I had changed radio to some version.
On 2.15.00.09.01 was very fast rebooting after try use internet.
On 2.07.00.07.16 was working a bit longer, but not so much.
And 2.05.00.06.11 - the best one! Plus I switched to Stock rom with Android 2.2 and whole day without rebooting.
Only one reboot was when do charging of the device.
The only problem I've under 2.05.00.06.11 that Interent working only via 1x speed. It always tries to connect via 3G, but no luck and switch to 1x.
What do u think now?
Again, thanks for help!

[Q][SOLVED] Is my wifi broken? "Error" when turning on

I was Insertcoin 1.0.8 S-off RA recovery
I occasionally got "Error" when turning wifi on from a widget now it will not turn on at all. I've tried multiple ROMs and Radios to no avail all I can think of that coincided with it failing was installing and using "Wireless tether for root users" from the market.
Z-device test has a big green tick against the wifi box but the anylitics screen doesn't display a signal.
I have now gone to the latest RUU (WWE-HTC, Hboot 0.93, s-on, new radio) the problem is unchanged.
UPDATE:
My phone is friggin nuts - after two weeks of this it has miraculously started to work!!!
'Wireless Tether' app log used to report an error with "bcm4329_apsta.ko module (fw_bcm4329_apsta.bin from /etc/firmware)...
Other people are having this error too any clever bods got ideas how to solve it? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Matt
Does the app have access to modify your wifi settings?
Is there a setting turning your wifi off, ie is your phone trying to tether permanently?
Or, try uninstalling the app or reverting to last nandroid?

Is there a setting turning your wifi off, ie is your phone trying to tether permanently?The App has been uninstalled and a fresh ROM and radio flashed
Or, try uninstalling the app or reverting to last nandroid?The handset has been restored to 'as new 'condition using PP99IMG.zip of HTC WWe latest with Hboot 0.93
Still wifi selection returns "Error"

I have erro this too, but My phone is Nexus one.
when i have up ROM cyanogen 7. uses serveral times wifi. then i can't turn on WIfi. that is WI-FI "error" message. anyone experience share me?
thanks very much!
I have the same problem with a UK Orange Desire. I tried flashing different roms/radios but I had no luck. I have unrooted it and returned it to htc for repair. I think it's a hardware issue. Some aic chip I read somewhere but I'm really not sure.
Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!
I have the exact same error with the HTC Glacier (mytouch4g). I also ran cyanogenmod. It all started with a battery change, then there was a bootloop after that the wifi died. Everything works now except the wifi, besides that I'm not sure whether it is normal since I havent checked it on other phones but I cannot call someone and use mobile internet at the same time (very annoying while trying to load google maps during a phonecall).
Anyways it suddenly worked for a few days then it stopped working again. Anyone else got a suggestion?

Wifi stops working after a restart

Hi, I'm having an odd wifi issue.
I unlocked my OneX, and flashed a rom, wifi was working fine until i restarted the phone, when i try to turn on wifi it says 'turning on wifi' forever.
Wifi never turns on again.
Exept if i flash another rom, then the whole thing happens again.
I have tried many roms, ICS and JB all with the same result.
And reflashing the boot.img didn't help.
Does any one know of a fix or some advice?
Do i have to send my phone back to HTC?
Thanks

Try getril from the market and see if you can find a compatible one for your baseband.
And now i have matching ril and baseband.
And the wifi still wont turn on.
Try reflashing modules for your kernel in cwm.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Haven't yet flashed module, but i was trying wifi direct and that works, so I'm thinking this is most likely not a hardware failure. Am i right?
Now I'm of to figure out how to flash a module.. Hoping i dont Have to send my HOX to HTC to fix this.
.... Woke up this morning and the wifi was on, i haven't done anything. But it works!
Now I'm gonna try a restart to see if it will work afterwards.
Ok, restarted the phone and wifi stopped working.
Then i just to check, restored a backup from super wifi password backup app, then wifi kicked in. So, now i'm going to flash a New JB Rom and not use the app to restore wifi passwords.
Hopefully thats it!
Thanks for the help on this dumb problem.

[Q] Disconnected because service is unavailable

Guys I am using HTC One X and facing a very frustrating problem. My data connection disconnects after every 10-15 minutes. When I go to the settings option it says ""Disconnected because service is unavailable"".. If I tap it to make it switch off and then tap it again to turn it on, it keeps saying the same thing "Disconnected because service is unavailable". The only method to make the data connection work gain is to
a) Switch to airplane mode, and then switch it back again to normal mode, and data connection would connect
b) Change the network connection mode to WCDMA (as its not available in my region, network goes off) and then turn it back to GSM or WCDMA/GSM (and the network comes back again) and data connects automatically....
I am not the only one facing this problem.. Check out these links too.

Even if you go to google and type "HTC ONE X d" it will show the problem in suggestions too. My HTC One X is not rooted. Its running on JB and stock Sense ROM.
Can anyone help me out ??
1) I have checked other threads before creating this new thread because on other threads people are talking about rooting. I dont have a rooted and phone and I wont root it now.
2) I tried factory reset many times. It doesnt help.
3) I tried other SIM cards too. And face the same problem with other SIMs too.
4) I contacted my service provider too. APN are all correct. I dont face any problem with the same SIM and APN in my other handset (HTC Inc S)
That is very strange indeed.
Did you mess around with the kernels, as that seems to be, very often, messing with the radios.
If not then it might as well be factory error... I would recommend that you try flashing a custom rom like ARHD or if you are not on the WWE version, then you can download the newer WWE rom from the ARHD thread as well.
If that doesn't help, well then, you might wanna consider bringing it to a repair shop.

ok.. i installed a custom ROM (AOSP) and the problem disappeared. But i didnt liked the ROM so i came to Sense based ROM (ViperX) and the problem started again. So it seems that there is no problem with the phone itself. It shows this problem when running sense rom. Any help ??
Try ARHD

Help wifi not working

Hello I have searched the forum in hopes of someone having the same problem to no avail. I am on phone no 3 of the Verizon variant of the HTC One. My problem is that on all 3 phones I cannot connect to WiFi at all. It sees the networks it says connecting then stops and tries another 2 times and then says authentication error. I have tried 6 different WiFi networks both secured and unsecured at Starbucks, McDonald's, Burger King, Library etc all with the same result. I want to like the phone very much and for 3 phones in a row to have this issue is a bit much. I am on SW version 1.10.605.10 and not sure if this has to do with it but it says hardware version 0000. I've even contacted HTC and after 30 min on the phone from trying factory reset, booting the phone into safe mode, and everything else no go. On a side note after everything the HTC rep did admit this is a known issue on a "limited" number of devices. Oh and and factory recovery is gone as well we couldnt get it to boot into it, the screen goes black then reboots itself. The phone is on stock 4.2.2 and has never been rooted, thank you in advance

If you can boot into your hboot, you could try to root it and flash a custom ROM to if it fixes it. If not, you could return to stock and send it back...
I had this issue happen earlier today while I was tinkering with the s-off exploit trying to get it to work. I was using the Stock Rooted Odexed rom when I first noticed I couldnt connect to my WiFi network. After installing Newts NOS v1.0.2 HTCOneVZW I have had no problems with connecting to and using my WiFi.
