[Q] wifi problem - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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...

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.

Turn off GPRS

Anyone know how to turn the GPRS off so that it never comes on?
What you need is this ......... creates an icon called No Data, with it you can toggle on and off your GPRS, I've been using for a while and it is excellent, stops GPRS connections altogether until you want it...
Activesync it somewhere on your orbit and then click on it within File Explorer
Ah! Stew! Saviour! A million thanks... exactly what I was looking for...
Why?
Hi
Why turn GPS totally off? does it use more battery when your not using it?
MicTh
Hi there MicTh...
I'm with O2 and their data tarrifs are somewhat expensive.
I use wifi a lot so don't need GPRS. There has been the odd occasion where I've lost wifi signal and the phone started connecting with GPRS...
The above program put a stop to this!
SG
Ohhh.. stupid me :O)
I thought u were talkin about turning GPS off.... My bad
thanks i have also been looking for app like this

This can be done easily by:
Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks->(in the first ComboBox) select "My Work Network" and click OK
No GPRS does it much simpler, simply toggling between on and off....GPRS can sometimes connect on demand, the phones demand not yours when receiving messages or when Quick GOS has become outdated, NO GPRS is the simplest solution I've found.......
Thanks - I've installed this - one question
I have disabled Mobile Web and O2 Active
Will I still receive MMS messages ???

No, MMS is sent and received over O2 Active which is WAP.
where do i copy files to
im new to orbit could you tell me where i place the files please
Copy it to you memory card and run the program. It will install itself.
thanks
thanks for your help ive got it sorted
now ive installed it and i click on the nodata icon it shows gprs as deactivated but if im usin wifii it says connecting to gprs is that normal or have i done something wrong.
also if it says connecting to gprs while nodata is installed does it still run up the bill,orbit is all new to me so im still trying to find my way around it im used to normal phone.
Hi,
just a question on this wifi-gprs. Is there a way to include a priority on one of the two?
I would like my phone to connect through wifi is it finds free or known connections, otherwise it should use wifi.
Anybody know of a setting to get this done?
Patrick
I have a Hermes and I can stop my GPRS connection instantly.
Please try this (also on other HTC models)...
When you still have a GPRS connection press and hold down the hangup button for 3 to 6 secs. (the red phone you use the end a phonecall) until the little GPRS icon disappears.
GPRS as a service will stay available.
Hi.
I'm sorry but I am having a noobie moment.
I have transferred the 3 NOGPRS files into My Music (cos I couldn't think of anywhere else to put it) and clicked on the "setup" file which opens revealing lines of code. But that's it, how do I install it? Where do I find the icon?
Sorry, this might seem basic to you but it is very complicated and difficult to understand for me.

u went one step too far.
just extract the NOGPRS.cab to your device,
then take your device and click on the .cab file!

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.

[Q] Anyone care to help a Noob with his Wildfire?

Firstly, Hi, Just got this forum recomended by a friend and it looks great, glad I joined.
secondly, all answer's need to be in plain English cos I am completely new to any for of electronic engineering etc etc.
So, On to my Q.
I brought a Wildfire back in June for £100 as it had been superceded by a new model, it was sold through O2 and was locked. I had it unlocked by a friendly shop for £20.
I returned to Egypt (I teach Scuba in Sharm el Sheikh) and started using the phone, really good, I like it.
Then my network starts selling internet packages (basically for less than £3 a month I can access the net whenever I like as long as I dont kick the arse out of it).
So I registered and paid my cash.........
When I click on the Connect to the Internet button it goes to "Turning On" but does nothing else.
I have asked my mobile network and they say it is a software problem caused by the illegal unlocking.....
HELP!!!
Regards
Stevie H
Hi and welcome. I will try and help the best I can but my knowledge is limited and others may help better if I can't.
I very much doubt this is a software issue but more of an vpn or data settings issue. Now my friend once had pay as you go and couldn't connect to internet due to his vpn or data connection values/settings not being set for his network. It was a long time ago so can't remember exactly what we did but it involved googling his network providers vpn settings and manually putting values into his phone settings. I hope and think this issue is easily solvable for you.

Thanks for the reply, but the settings are all as they should be, I had the guy at Mobinil check em for me and also googled them to check myself and all is good on that front.
I emailed HTC about my problem, complete with model and serial numbers etc - it was them that said the "illegal" unlocking had caused the problem

What exactly do you mean by "click on the Connect to the Internet button"?
It may be that my language on my phone is set to Swedish and it's different from your's, but I don't understand what you mean by that. Are you talking about the checkbox for Settings - Wireless & network - Mobile network?
My experience is that you have a problem with the settings for Mobile networks (roaming, networks, APNs) just like slymobi and Ankurcul already told you. But if you've made sure they are correct it seems strange...
It is really strange bt I don't think so its illegal unlocking problem...
