I just purchased a desire hd and found out that it had the wifi proximity problem.
The software version of the device is 2.37 something and I have received the latest update. I have tried to have the phone check for software updates but it always says the phone has the latest software.
Can someone please help me and tell me how I can get the update or how I can fix the wifi problem ?
2.50 is the latest update, it fixes wifi issues. Preses The menu button > settings > about phone > software updates. Be patient.

I believe that's the current for unbranded devices. For example I have an inspire (us branded dhd) and our most current is 2.47.502.7.
@op I believe 2.37 is probably the current version. For your carrier, so until they release it your stuck well unless you decide to root and debrand.
What kind of wifi issues are you having. I'm not personally familair with that build so it may or may not be a known issue with your build

yes that might be the case then. I have a t-mobiles set and that might be the reason for the delay. The wifi works but its not strong enough. Places where the signal is weak it doesn't even search the wifi or doesn't connect. Even at my home where the signals are strong it doesn't connect everywhere .... The correct build number is 2.37.110.5 ...
Guess I just have to keep waiting ....
An option would be for you to Root your device and flash a custom ROM - that would sort out your Wifi problem pretty quickly!

Still do not update to sense 3.0 ....
I just want someone to tear out the radio and give me a flashable zip. I'm running android 4.0 so I could care less about the rest of the update.

I'll wait to flash a new radio. I'm sure it will be extracted and uploaded here soon.
I am so tempted to run the new OTA, but I would want quick access to an XTC clip to unlock my bootloader in case anything went as VZW planned.
As in VZW would rather we keep our bootloader locked.
Any one see the Red DInc II avail any more.
Looks like we got the limited edition of the RED Droid Incredible 2.
It's so funny that the Vortex is still going for $79.
That phone must be SPECIAL...
As in VZW tries to pedal cheap junk for more than it's worth.
Yeah, I am hopeful that we get a flashable zip of the radio. Don't forget to check the MD5 sum & have a good flash (when it becomes available).
Look in the thread in the general section. Radio but no md5.

I'm running rooted stock (RMK's rooted ROM from the previous OTA).
is anyone packaging this update as a flashable ROM?
I would if i knew how to do that magic stuff.

cwr will block the ota from installing if you try
The radio installs fine from the posted zip no problems.
I installed the radio just fine as well but I don't see a difference in signal strength. I'm running CM7 and I still see 4 signal bars.

I friends,
Can anyone help me please to find answers for the following questions?
# Is changing (upgrading or downgrading) "baseband only" risky?
# How can I find the matching baseband (Radio/Modem) for a particular ROM I'm running?
# If I want to use specific baseband (let's say XXKL3), how can I find the related ROM to extract baseband? (I see ROMs with PDA/PHONE/CSC numbers. Which one represents Baseband number?)
# Is there any recommened stock ROM with no Wi-Fi issue?

It is not risky if u flash it via Odin follow the proper steps. If something goes wrong, just flash another official STOCK ROM.

This is actually not the matching of ROM but ur region, for example, DXLM2 baseband for Malaysia, while XXLM3 for Europe Region.

First of all, thanks for your explanatory response. Now things are more clear in my mind.
You're right, stock ROMs have no Wi-Fi issue. But as I know (correct me if I'm wrong) particular stock ROM versions are more stable than the others. I'm asking those ones if possible...

I'm having WiFi disconnection issues as I stated in my thread...
My HTC cid no is J_15.
I purchased it in the middle east. ie. United Arab Emirates.
I just got the notification regarding the update for battery efficiency, ie , v4.0.475679.
I tried restarting my phone and then tried the entire process again but it was of no use.
Can someone please suggest a solution for this? I would be glad to have JB running on my mobile.
Thank You

It's working now guys, I first got the 1.25MB update through mobile network and then I got the 358 MB update using internet-pass through connection.
I don't know why the initial update couldn't work with internet pass through.
I'm finally glad it's working and now it's restarting.
Thanks for looking through my post people.

Hallo all,
I have a silly question for anyone has time to lose: I have a LG-F180K, the OptimusG korean version. Why can I only use the rom F180K10H?
I tested several configuration and official roms, mixing my backupped baseband and roms, official OTA. but my phone works ONLY with F180K10H.
For example with the others official LG's rom mobile network doesn't work (I can't make calls!!), wifi works. Restoring the baseband (img) works mobile network but wifi not.
I tested the official upgrade F180K10H->F180K20C/G/I without success.
Ideas?
same here
i had exactly this issue.. did you find any solution? thanks!
For now I'm on ICS. Unfortunately I didn't find the reason, but I think it is the baseband...

up for this thread, same issue here
E980 rooted using freegee, flashed cm11 m3 and the previous nightly, everything works until i put my simcard, after that wifi stops working.
only way to solve is to remove simcard and do factory reset.
flashed cm 10.2 stable and everything works, including WIFI + Sim.
second issue, i have an Optimus G, and it runs KITKAT way smoother, cant explain, but the animations are jittery on E980, while on Optimus G they are smooth.
Guys, help me here, one day old phone here... How do you guys using the ROMs? When it won't work? Hope it's not the phone as cm11 M2 works fine.

Try setting region in settings>wifi>advanced
Also try to install the Jan 21 2014 cm11 rom, since some wifi changes were made starting from Jan 22 2014.
You can also try flashing the custom kernel from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50148452

yes clicking any region will enable wifi, but after reboot, you have to do this again.
changing the kernel fixes it, either use older m2 kernel or any custom kernel.

I am confused as to why other people are not affected by this problem. Its not only with CM11 that this happens, all the newer versions of roms have the same issue. Cyanfox has exactly the same issue that it has to be ticked again after reboot. Slimkat on the other hand remembers once you tick the region. One rom I don't exactly remember which one does not even have the region settings( either Vanir or AICP) so any other kernel has to be flashed.

exactly what i wonders... why not more than handful only complain, i have an E980, perhaps other models does not suffer this.
yes using a older kernel or a custom one fixes the issue, i have used kernel from M2 build and these days using the custom one.
only thing is the custom kernel gives me random reboot here and there.

After a lot of googling I found out that a lot of people have this issue but all of these people are using US version phones in other places than the USA.
The locale in the Sim does not match the one in the Settings Storage (or the MCC-Tables) in the phone and that creates a conflict.
If you remove your sim and then start your phone without it, the wifi works perfectly.
Give it a try.
Still can't seem to find a permanent solution to this.
