Try Re-Booting
Try Re-Booting the HTC-Wildfire and then trying your WiFi Settings again, if this does not work you can then try Re-Booting your rooter/hub by removing the AC Plug from the wall for 30 seconds and then Plugging back in and wait 5 minutes then try again to connect otherwise please try a different radio or Re-Flash a different ROM to your HTC Wildfire (Buzz).
Hope I helped

HTC-Wildfire "unable to scan for networks"

I have the "S-off" and i upgraded it to CyanogenMod 7 but still no wi-fi.
Now i have downdraded it to 2.2 and the problem is STILL HERE "unable to scan for networks",
ANYONE PLEASSSSEEEEE HELP, im reading this and other forums for 2 days and havent found the working soultion !

Run an RUU and S-ON, using the guide in my sig. If it still doesn't work, send it to HTC as this is obviously not the ROMs fault.

Very big problem with my Desire and Wifi Connection

Hey guys,
im running a Desire with the newest Leedroid Rom. Everythings working perfect,
except the wifi network connection.
My Problem:
After i updated from branded 2.1 to 2.2 with OVA Update, i cant connect to any
encrypted wifi. I dont get an error or something, it just tries to get a ip adress
and then it says Connecting... and then it starts again from trying to get an
ip-adress and so on and so on...
The only thing thats working is to connect to an open wifi hotspot.
Things i tryed:
- Other Router, other settings, other decryption, other keys,and so on
It has to be a problem in updating process, cause with 2.1 it works and after i
update to 2.2 i cant connect to any wifi anymore.
I really need help cause i think this cant be a hardware problem, cause everything else is working.
Sry for my english, tried my best
nge89
Do a full wipe and flash leedroid again.
I have done full wipes like 100 times, also im always testing new roms,
so i was on modaco,leedroid,cyanogen and installed them many times.
So that cant be the problem
nge89
First how do you do a full wipe?
Second what is a OVA update? is it the same as OTA? And what does the update have to do with your wifi not working on leedorid? Did you OTA update form a rooted 2.1 rom?
Has wifi ever worked on 2.2? What radio are you using?
I do a full wipe with all 4 wipe options, dont know the exactly names.
Yeah sry,with OVA i mean the OTA.
No, i did a OTA Update from a branded unrooted 2.1 Desire to the branded 2.2 Froyo version. And wifi NEVER worked on any 2.2 version.
I just rooted my phone when i was on branded 2.2 version, cause i wanted to
try some of the nice roms.
In this time i never used wifi, only mobile network connection, cause i was long
time not at home and couldnt use any wifi, now im back here and trying to solve
my wifi problem.
Just checking my Radio version and i have 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2, but i dont
know why, thought i had installed a newer
Should i try the 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27?

Yes looks like 2.1 radio, try the newer but do not pull the battery during the update it will reboot twice and don't touch anything during the process. I take no responsibility for what happens and I suggest you do some searching on the radio flashing process. Also don't forget to check the md5 of the download.
Might sound a bit scary but if you follow the procedures and don't do anything stupid it should go well.
i encountered the same problem only i'm on 2.1 after downgrading from 2.2 and rom jumping. did a wipe and even tried to nand restore my original stock rom. is this a radio error?
the phone was working fine. this issue happened to me while i was trying to fix a battery drain problem, i did a dalvik + cache wipe and the battery was fixed but the wifi started doing this. my phone could still be on the 2.2 radio

Would be nice if you would post the radio version
was about to edit my post with the info, you beat me to it
Radio: 5.11.05.27
HBoot: 0.93.0001
Im now also on 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27. Still the same Problem.
That u can imagine how it looks like:
1. Wlan -> power on
2. Select my Wlan Acess Point
3. Type in my Wlan Key
4. Its says Wlan -> " The Connection is now being established"
5. Wlan -> "Authentication with "Wlan Accespoint name" "
6. Wlan -> " Not Connected"
7. Wlan -> "Scan..."
After this steps it repeats from step 4-7 again and again and nothing is happening.
nge89
Also tried with another keyboard, in another thread someone said it worked for him
with another keyboard. But not for me, still the same problem.
nge89
ok i fixed the problem and now Wifi works perfectly!
I downloaded the same version radio and flashed it again from AmonRA recovery and now the Wifi and mobile network work just fine.
I got the radio from this thread and it has the instructions on how to flash the radio.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687464
I just flashed the radio with clockworkmod and with install zip from sdcard. Is that wrong?
You had the same problem like me?
Nge89
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
no its not wrong, thats what i did only with AmonRA. yeah from your description i had the same problem. The wifi would detect my wireless network but would refuse to connect and kept giving me "unsuccessful" errors.
The problem is, that i dont get any error.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Some one any idea?
flashing the radio again didn't fix it?
Did you try to disable any protection (wep, wpa, wpa2) on your router and then connect? Also try to disable dhcp on your router and assign static IP adress to your HTC device. I had problems connecting to wifi but after I assign static IP everything is ok.
Yeah, i can connect with disabled security. With static ip and crypted wifi it
doesnt work, i cant connect.
nge89
Then your problem most probably lies in "shaking" between HTC and router. Did you try with basic 64 bit or 128 bit wep? In many cases shaking troubles occur when one device doesn't support encryption of another. For example I had troubles connecting my windows 7 because of ****ty drivers off my wireless card. I could only use wep. Also can you check that portable wi-fi hotspot in wi-fi hotspots is disabled? And try to add your wireless manually so when you enable wi fi it should connect you automaticly without having you to enter your password.

HTC Desire can't connect to mobile operator.

Hi guys, I have rooted my htc desire and flashed with it with Oxygen.
However I have a problem - my phone will not connect to my mobile operator?
When I select "about phone > status > signal strength" that shows -93db and 10asu - So does that mean there is signal?
The desire was branded and locked to Orange. At first I thought it was a simlock issue, but I have a unlock code. Every time I restart the device it asks me to input the code, however it still does not allow me to connect to my operator (O2 uk).
After going through a few threads I am stumped so I am seeking advice! I have tried different radio versions to no avail, different ROMs also so can anyone offer some suggestions as to the solution please?
Anyhelp would greatly be appreciated, thanks!

1. Reset/restore your APN
settings - wireless & network - mobile networks - access points
You should see your provider and a check box. Press the menu button, select reset to standard and wait till it's done (or add manually).
The path was translated from german, so please look for the appropriate setting on your phone.
2. If your sd card doesn't mount or usb doesn't connect, search for usb brick fix here in the forum.
3. If 1 or 2 doesn't help, wipe everything (not your sd card!) and reflash your rom. After rebooting flash again the latest radio.
thanks for the responses, I have tried resetting apn but that did not work for me. I have however managed to solve this problem by restoring stock RUU and unrooting. I then reflashed oxygen and all is working fine.
My radio version is running on 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09 currently, however I will update this to the latest version 5 radio and see if my connection or simlock occurs. Do you guys think that a radio update is necessary or that I should keep the one that I have now?
Thanks
any chance you could post how you restored stock ruu

Wi-fi scan problem

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
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
Still nothing.
And yes HTC sense works.

Cyanogenmod 7 cannot connect via mobile data

I am having issue in connecting mobile data, although I have the "data enabled" option ticked, but there is no mobile data icon appears on the status bar.
I googled and tried lots of apn setting for my carrier however none of them can solve my problem. I have done the "search automatically" method under network operators. Also, I have tried flash newer cyanogenmod nightly and other radio version over my original cyagenmod rom, but none of these help.
Please advice on how could I get my mobile data working again.
Mobile data issue
I am facing the same issue . Any one knows wat could resolve this??
which radio version r u having????
Hope I can help you
Quoted from CM7's official thread for HTC wildfire (Buzz):
If you have any issues with GPS, 3G or any other network issues, try flashing the following radio firmware. NB, it's not possible to flash this zip from ClockworkMod 3, so if you have this version installed, use ROM Manager to flash it instead.

I deactivated my 3G subscription. Deleted the APN. Activated 3G subscription. Recreated the APN and voila I am connecting via 3G. I hope this would help others facing this issue as well.

Hi,
I have tried all three radio versions, flashed all 3 of them several times for the last 3-4 days but I am still not able to enable the functions of GPS & Mobile Data (Internet) on my rooted HTC Wildfire. Currently I am running Cyanogenmod 7.1.0.1.
I am really going crazy over this. In google maps, location is found only while using wi-fi. With GPS location is not found although the GPS icon comes in status bar. Mobile internet doesnt work at all.
Please help.

As a last resort (this will do a clean wipe of all data) -
Run an RUU for your phone
- Downloaded from android forums.
- Connect phone to PC and run RUU
- This downgrads phone OS to eclair (android 2.1)
- Let it do the bizniss
- Re-root with unrevoked 3
- Re-Flash CM7 and gApps

[Q] How to fix my not working WiFi ( Video showing a problem )

Hello, I'm new here to this and to the flashing stuff and rest.
I wanted to do some change to my buzz so I just flashed my 2.2.1 to 2.3.7 (CyanogenMod-7.1.0.1).
Everything was fine, flashed Gapps also.
The only thing is my wi-fi isn't working.
It can't even connect. It's like refreshing by 3 secs and doing that in a circle.
Link to video: youtube : watch?v=iFqWoqaX0fU
/// What I Did:
- Reflashed CyanogenMod twice.
- Reflashed my radio (the newest version anyway).
- Flashed 19.25 radio with CWM 2.5.0.7 still nothing.
/// Specs:
- Android 2.3.7
- CyanogenMod-7.1.0.1
- Radio 3.35.19.25
- HBOOt 6.01.1002
- S-OFF
Did everything today and WiFi was working in the morning perfectly (on 2.2.1)
If you know a solution write it down step by step, im new to this.
Recheck your wifi password.. Authenticating is failing by the looks of it.
WiFI password
Nope, wifi password is good.
It even seems to like even refusing to scanning if u can see.
All I can see is that it scans your wifi and you enter the password which it fails to authenticate. It tries a couple of times and then disables it. If the password is correct, it should atleast try getting an ip.
Try using static ip and see if it helps..
WiFI
The password is not bad checked like 10 times. Static IP doesnt help neither.
And If u look scanning and everything also fails. It scanns and disconnects and fails ...
And I said that that morning WiFi was working perfectly on 2.2.1
Have you tried removing the password? (Just to test if it really is the password)
WiFi
Yes I Did.
try the latest cyanogenmod stable, 7.2.0
CM
There is no 7.2 stable...
There is.
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=buzz
7.2 version
Installed 7.2 version
formatted system wiped data / cache and factory reset
still the same thing happens
Try using someone else's wifi and see if that works..
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA
try with different radio, for my wildfire work only (Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10)
Radios
Tried the 3 versions of radio. Still didnt help.
