I have an issue with the Dash (t-mobile). I have open access to the internet with a D-Link router and I cannot connect to the internet. I have checked all the settings and everything seem right. I can connect to the net, but I cannot access any websites.
The error I am getting is "page cannot be found. Check the name and try again"
Is there something I am doing wrong?
I am using Kavana ROM and I have open access to internet.
Are you trying to connect through wireless with IE?
If so make sure the options/connections are set up to use the correct network on your phone.
You may have to reflash. One thing I learned some times data wont work at all and sometimes it works flawlessly after a flash. Thats the first thing I check after a flash is the data, if it does not work reflash until it does. There might be an easier way, but thats just the way I do it.
Hi
i have the "Higgsy_Modded_3.4.2_GB_Froyo_RC2" rom on my defy, everything works perfect....with one exception.....wifi
------------------------------
***ive copied this text form "reinsen" because he had the some problem***
Got some serious wifi issues...
When i switch on wifi and start something traffic-heavy like dl or youtube vid,i dont lose connection to my router but to the internet.cant open a site via browser or anything else. Switchin wifi off and then on again gets me back online only until i start streamin or dling again...with one exception
Most prolly the wifi drivers aren't included in the rom...although there are loads of other roms, you can try those
I know this is stupid but did you reboot your device?
Because thats what happened to me with another rom a reboot is essential.
-Jabar
Did you full wipe as well?
yes, i wiped all and complet
reboot done, without any effects
hmmm, i think i go to try the S.Froyo...
i´ve found the problem.
the defy CAN´T handle router with WMM + 802.11n standart.
Log in to your router an turn off WMM or switch the wifi from 802.11n to 802.11g
last night I was reading online comics and it suddenly not respond so I force it restart and it was worse. My kindle cannot recognize my touching.
It is strange that TWRP still works. Restoring doesn't helps, too.
So I wipe it all(except for sdcard) and install various cm9 and cm7 with corresponding kernels from hashcode with no luck. Cm9 is ok but without wifi. Cm7 just wont respond.
Also I tried using TWRP to go back to pure stock and wifi still not working. So I redo all the root, twrp again.
Finally I fix permissions and install cm7 aka now it's screen recognize my touching but the wifi still cannot be turned on.
Is it possible wifi chip has been broken?
Any one can help me, THANKS!?
hey everyone, do u have any suggestions......
now, as long as I open wifi it goes dead. I don't know what to do. Is it possible that due to heavy use the chip gets break down?
I was wondering what remains the same after I flash roms. Because installing zip has formatted boot, data and system.
I hard off the device when the wifi went wrong. And the application in which led to this situation cannot be reinstalled(install said OK but openning it the screen was black, still responding to button savior).
So maybe the problem lies in the internal storage that is unchangeable. Any one helps!? Or should I contact amazon CS?
Half of the old apk is probably left in data/app

But why the wifi still cannot be turned on? yes, it is when I using the app the wifi connection seems to be unstable, and I pressed the power button for 20 seconds.
Thanks for your reply.
would try to clean up the wifi configuration:
turn wifi off
look for /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
open the file and delete everything except the first two lines, they are:
ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
update_config=1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this is for stock rom - for cm7 it has to be simmilar
turn wifi on again
hope this helps ...

Thanks all the same.
I used root explorer to search for wap_supplicant.conf since it's not in that folder and delete everything except the first two lines. (forget to mention that my wifi just shows turning on and I can't do anything, flash new roms won't help.)
Then I reboot it the result remains same.......
did you try to restart your router ?
because i have this sometimes with the stock rom - wifi tries to connect and can't - all my other devices work fine - i use to reboot to router and the kf is connecting immediately again

I'm sure it has nothing to do with my router. because I live on campus and use school wifi. wifi is in the state of turning on since booting. regardless of flashing new roms.
thanks for your reply.
just closing out all known issues ...
but nearly running out of ideas at this point
maybe something on your sdcard partition ? - i know it sounds crazy but i had a case where the fresh installed rom did not start until he copied the whole sdcard partition to computer as a backup and deleted everything (besides .android_secure and twrp folder)

I can only think of files remain unchangeable when flashing roms or wifi chip burned(hope not).
Anyway idea about the internal files with respect to wifi issues?
BTW, I didn't find the half installed app or any other files in data/app

no - sorry - maybe do a logcat and look for something that gives a hint in the right direction

actually I'm just a noob. I don't know how to do a logcat and how to find the problem.
as you can't download it from the market, attached here is a logcat program
install it and you'll see a lot of debug lines - be shure to make or let make the kf a wifi connection attempt - save the log and attach it as .txt file to the thread - i'll take a look if i can see something to track down your problem
the thing is the wifi is turning on by default. no matter what I do. do u mean use some app which needs wifi?

it seems like the wifi is still turning on so I just open catlog and wait a few seconds and save it.

but there is never a connection attempt - strange ...
now I wonder which files are associated with wifi status in internal storage. some files must have been changed.
im kinda curious if you find a fix. ive been struggling with terrible wifi connection with my kindle. itll turn on, but it constantly turns off then after a while wont connect anymore. just says obtaining wifi then doesnt connect just shows saved wifi connection. im almost to the point of giving it away. not sure if amazon will help me out, and i wouldnt sell it to someone if i know it has wifi connection issues. i try to reset my router and it helps for a little bit, but then goes back to the issues i had

seems like we have different issues. Mine is turning on without any connection or list of available networks. Have you tried reboot, forget all networks or so on?
First off I want to say that the rom (SensuAOSP 2.55) is the bomb... But I am having a few problems and not sure where to turn to. My first problem is the tethering, I can't get it to work. I can turn it on, and my IPAD finds it, the password works and it says it is connected. But no data is passed. It shows it has the IP address etc but nothing.
The phone vibrated at one time, but now it is not. I have gone through all the settings (but 1 I guess since I can't find it) with no luck.
Lastly, I have clicked on the A2SDgui icon and it comes up and states It could not start for one of these reasons 1. Your device is not rooted 2. A2SDGUI scripts could not be found 3.No ext partition found. I know I formated the partition, It says that superuser has permission, just not sure what else to check...
Thank you to any of you for your assistance

Lets talk about the Tethering first... I did the upgrade on this ROM and still did not work (Really didn't think it would). Was wondering if anyone would think I should just update the radio?
I flashed a new ROM, and when I found I didn't like it (phone froze very often) I restored the nandroid backup I had taken. When I booted up again, wifi didn't work. When I press the toggle it turns to on, but gray. Doesn't start to search for wifi networks.
I googled around for a bit and found that I should rename my "wpa_supplicant.conf" in root/data/misc/wifi. I renamed it to "temporary backup" so that I wouldn't lose it, and didn't set a file type so I know the phone shouldn't recognize it as the wpa_supplicant.conf. I was also told that after a reboot would generate a new wpa_supplicant.conf, and yet after 2 reboots I still don't have a new one and wifi still doesn't work.
This makes me suspect that the error happens before it looks for wpa_supplicant.conf, but I don't know how to troubleshoot any longer. I don't know what information is relevant, so I'll post it as a reply and in the main post as fast as you ask.
Thanks beforehand!
