Develop Bugs

[WIFI] Browsing works, market etc doesn't

Hello everyone,
My phone is doing good so far, i have some of the known bugs, but i'm very satisfied!!
But.... when i'm connected with wifi at home or at my gf's home (different locations, different hardware) I can use my browser but I can't use Market, Zedge etc. I'm a system administrator, so I already checked everything network-related that could cause the problem(Encryption, channel, toggle between g/n, ports). My HD2 doesnt have any problems.
Is there something changed on the HOX in how it handles a wifi connection?
Like to hear your ideas and suggestions!!

Mine is currently connected via wifi, and was also connected using the Mobile Network, and have had no market/email/browsing issues on any of those. Have you done any modifications on it? Are there any port lockdowns on those wifi signals you've been using?

The phone is still out-of-the-box. I only installed whatsapp and a few apps but nothing big.
I tried it with no security at all, port 5228 UDP/TCP are open, tried a different router.. no luck so far!

No such problems here.

I have the same problem with all Android devices. Enable the Data and connect to Market once (Accept the terms and conditions). Once Market authenticates then it should work with WiFi. I have spend hours trying to find out the cause but no luck. I tried to DMZ the router to make sure there is no Port being blocked. In case you find out let me know how you fixed it.

just make sure the date and time is ok

Posted the following in another thread but thought it would be worth posting in here:
Might sound strange, but try rebooting the router. I was having problems with my One X, almost the same issue as you. My HTC Sensation would be fine and my Galaxy S and my laptop also fine, but my One X would have terrible WiFi performance, even tried deleting the wifi settings and re-connecting, and also a factory reset, to no avail. At this point i was ready to take it back as I thought it was faulty.
As a last desperate attempt i rebooted the router (unplugged it for 10 seconds then plugged it back in), and my One X has been perfect ever since. Doesn't quite make sense why one device but not others would have a problem, but worked for me anyway!

I've actually had a similar issue, in that TuneIn kept refusing to stream, even after restarting the phone. Power-cycling the router fixed it, although other devices on the same network were having no problems.

Ok, Im starting to think this phone is killing my WiFi network.. having ip issues with all my laptops now everything is set to static now so lets wait and see..

Problems with wifi or apps?

Hi. i currently use Pulse RSS reader and notice how its very very slow retrieving updates and adding new rss feeds when using my wifi.
when i use my 3g connection via T mobile, its fine?
Chrome browser seems fine on wifi, so does gmail, But i notice that even facebook and tweetcaster is very very slow using it via wifi.
Any suggestions?.
I tried tweaking my netgear router by reserving a local IP for my device and still diddnt work. im with"BeThere" internet.
The signal strength is max bars according to the device and my internet connection on my pc's are fast and acting normal. i am using a netgear DG834GT router.
Thanks in advance

I have problems to with market and zegde tot example!! On 3G its fine, tried all i could do; differernt encryption, router, switched between WPA and WPA2..

glad im not the only one! the signal stays solid 9/10 ie i hardly lose wifi signal but the internet wifi speed is shockingly unreliable and slow! on my htc desire, ipod touch and ps vita, they all connect and use my wifi fine

this might fix my issue. seems like its my router. odd as prety much all of my other wifi devices work.

i have tried wifi at work, in my parents house and a mates house and it was fine and stable

It happens after unlocking the device and it's similar to this issue:

The wifi can totally stop or just being very very slow after resuming the device

ahh i see ok cool.

Try rebooting your router. I had the exact same issue, the One X would be shockingly bad on WiFi even though other phones and laptops would be fine on the exact same network. I tried resetting the phone but still nothing, was beginning to think the phone was faulty. Ended up rebooting the router (unplugging it for 10 seconds and then plugging it back in) and bizarrely sorted the issue out immediately. Its been 5 days now and my WiFi is still working 100% perfectly. Not sure why only the One X could get affected by this, but seems to be a common issue judging by this forum.

My solution that works so far
Hi
Actually there ar three threads currently regarding this WiFi issue. I post my reply here.
- The one here
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590604&page=2
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590884
I tried for days everything that was proposed in the three threads. Nothing really helped. The issue remained. In my repeater, the One X shows no IP number, but it must have one. The problem description is same as described in the three threads.
My solution after days of trying (forget everything about changing your routers config which has been working perfect over the past. It won't help in long terms):
I gave the One X an own repeater where it has to connect to (I've excluded it from the router and repeater one). Since then, everything works fine. It probably could also be an own router. Of course this is considered as a workaround, and I do not accept it if there will be no update in the future, or replacement of the unit if it is a hardware issue.
Question:
I guess this describes the problem and solution perfectly.
http://mhotspot.com/blog/themsk-fix-obtaining-ip-address-android-wifi-problem-2/
However, how can I give the One X an own IP? I really can't find a menupoint to do that! And saying the router to give the One X always the same IP number is not enough. This alone doesn't help.
Does anyone know where to give the One X an own IP number? If this is not possible we might have an unsolvable problem.

You can give the One X its own IP by going to
Settings>Wi-Fi>(choose your SSID)>(disconnect if you already connected)>click on the SSID again>'show advanced options'>(scroll down(touch around any of the text and move your finger up, if that makes sense)) IP Settings>click on DHCP>select static>(scroll down, same way as before)>enter the IP address etc etc
Hope that helps if you haven't already figured it out. I can always post you some screenshots if you need it?

for me it seems to be an issue with my router as every router i have used known to man(work, friends, wifi cloud) all work flawlessly.
i do have it set to static dhcp for my phone and it seem to be a bit more stable but tends to lose bandwidth fast

You could try changing the channel width on your router from 40MHz to 20MHz.
I had the exact same problem on my one x when connecting to my tp-link router at home, and changing the channel width has solved the problem completely for me.
Hope this helps

Wifi dropouts

Is anyone else having sporadic issues with wifi on the One X?
I have two One X's, both running T-mob rom 1.26.110.5.
Wifi will work fine for some hours, then problems start. I usually notice this when returning to the browser - where the progress bar sticks at about 10% and goes no further in downloading a page.
This can happen to either of my One X's. At the same time, my other One X and both of my HTC Desires will continue to operate perfectly on Wifi. This situation can continue for quite some time, and usually I have to cycle the wifi power on the offending phone, whereupon that phone will connect fine again.
The good connection has lasted anywhere between 2 minutes to several hours.
This is intensely frustrating. When I got both phones home new the other day, I set one phone up first, and later in the evening first experienced this wifi problem. Thinking the phone had a fault, I continued and set up the second phone. But that also exhibited the same fault.
Note that all the time this is happening, I have 2 laptops, 3 other phones (included the other One X), and a media streamer, all connecting just fine to my same wifi access point. I doubt the access point is at fault - it has worked for years with the other equipment without issue.
Only the two One X's have intermittent problems connecting to it, and then not both at the same time.
So does anyone else experience this?

same problem here, the solution until an update, is to take out the pasword from router, leave the wifi network without password

Are you serious? WiFi without password is an absolutely NoGo. I contacted today hTc with this problem. They said they know this problem, many users have reported it. They said to me I should let exchange my phone by my provider. That was not the the answer that I wanted to hear, but I hope they can fix it with a patch and it's not an hardware issue. But if you say deactivating the wifi password can temporaly fix this problem, it should be possible to fix it with an software patch.

I was having wifi problems as well and had lots of other devices which connected just fine. I reset the router and it seems to be going well...
Couldn't try it on another router to see if the router was the problem or it was the phone.
Otherwise love my new one x!!! YAYYY!

Got the same Problem. I just signed the device a fixed ip in the Router config and have no Problem since...
Maybe u should try some like that.

I have noticed WiFi drop outs. Have assigned a static ip, testing to see if it makes a difference

Mod or Die

Mine was showing the loop on connecting, authenticating, obtaining ip. That is a common problem in Android (and nowhere else), but I worked around it by connecting to a different router, then re-connecting to my own router. (In addition to all the other rebooting router, rebooting phone, rebooting refrigerator suggestions). Yup, static IP too. Still would get the problem.
Tracked it thru alogcat and can see the exact point of failure, but still cant fix it.
BUT IT GETS WORSE: My phone stopped scanning. It can't find ANY routers.
If you manually enter a hotspot it shows as not in range.

Mine is getting a little better with static ip and improved wifi performance ticked, but the issue is still here.

UPDATE:
Rebooting the phone didn't help. (It would still not scan for routers)
In Power Settings, there is a checkbox called FAST BOOT.
It came from the factory checked.
I unchecked it and now wifi scanning works again.
I still get the connecting, authenticating, obtaining IP Loop, on some routers. Rebooting the router will solve that as a temporary fix.
There is also a setting called Best Wifi Performance, which some suggest keeps the wifi chip from entering a deep sleep mode, making wake up faster. I checked that too.
Still not happy with the wifi problems. (no, its not my router, 7 other android devices connect to it just fine. Laptops and printers also).

Thats exactly what I found out too. Therefore it would be necessary to give the One X a own IP but in its own config. Not only on the router.
Do you know if this cn be done?

[Q] Wifi connections fail after phone is on for a few hours

I've noticed over the past couple of weeks that even though wifi is turned on and my usual networks are remembered, (home, work etc...) my One X will not connect to the wifi after it has been on a while.
When I go into settings, the wifi status cycles through 'Connecting...', 'Disconnected' and 'Scanning...'. Turning the wifi on and off on the phone has no effect.
I'm not exactly sure how long this takes to stop working, but if I restart the device, it resets the problem and I am able to use wifi again. With the quick startup and a fairly large data plan, this isn't a massive deal, but it would still be nice to be able to connect to wifi without having to restart...
Anyone had this problem before/got any ideas as to what's causing it or how to fix it? I've searched for this problem in the One X forums but found nothing, sorry if it's been brought up before...

...I have the same issue on these security protocols
WPA (TKIP)
WPA (AES)
WPA2 (TKIP)
WPA2 (AES)
WPA Mixed
Tried switching bands B, then G, now on Mixed B+G but keeps scanning, aquiring ip (Wireless router broadcasting DHCP) then skips back to scanning looping again and again.
If I reset the password on my router then it will aquire ip and be fine, but if I disconnect wireless on the phone and then try reconnect it just loops as before unless i reset the password on the router again..
Tried upgrading firmware to latest
Switched from channel 1 to 6 (midway)
It only works on the most basic WEP (hex10) setting...which surprises me as my Desire, a 2 year old device, worked just fine on WPA.
SO try WEP?

I don't want to spoil your day but I think you have a faulty unit. The same thing happened to me, with my first One X. After 4 days and nights of painfully trying everything that could fix the problem, I returned the phone and got another one. Worked strait out of the box, no issues whatsoever.
The only ways I could keep the connection was to change the security of the router to WEP, or frequently reset the router.
So if you have the possibility, change the device. Good luck.

Hmm ok thanks... Did you go through HTC or the company you bought the contract from? Just wondering whether HTC's replacement service is better than 'post it back and we'll send you a new one in a week'...

Having read in advance about the issues the One X has, described here on XDA, I decided to wait untill a reputed retailer had in physical stock, and got to see and power on the device. This also allowed a quick and hassle free exchange.
Regarding the WiFi problem, you cannot just go asking around every 30':
"... excuse me, could you please restart your
router? ... Or maybe change the security protocol to WEP?..."
I mean it's fine if you only connect vis WiFi at home where you can customize as much as you can, but what's the point of a mobile device if it's just "somewhat" mobile...:banghead:
So try and see if you can get a refund for your phone and get another from a retail store, check for screen spots, screen flickering, screen flex and of course the WiFi issue.
On the other hand the phone is truly amaizing almost cannot let it down...

[Q] HTC One Wi-Fi Connection Issues - Please help!

I need major help!
I am currently on my third HTC One, after two attempts at a solution, and I am still having the same problem. Here it is: I will connect to my Wi-Fi at home, successfully browse a few pages online, press the power button to put it to sleep, press the power button again to turn it back on, then see (in the status bar) the Wi-Fi disconnect then reconnect, try to browse more pages online with no luck because the connection does not work. The only way I can consistently get Wi-Fi to work on this phone is after waking up my phone from sleep I have to turn Wi-Fi off then back on to re-establish the connection.
I've check my settings extensively and changed a few defaults in an attempt to get this to work. Here are my settings currently: "Keep Wi-fi on during sleep" - Always; "Wi-fi Frequency band" - 5 Ghz only; "Wi-Fi optimization" is checked; "Best Wi-Fi perfomance" is checked. My Wi-Fi password was entered correctly and I am currently writing this on a laptop connected to the same home network.
I am at my wit's end. I just want this beautiful phone to work properly. Are there any suggestions as to what might be causing this and how to fix this situation? Or am I doomed to an endless cycle of HTC One exchanges until I find one that works? Please help! Thanks.

very sorry to be hearing this.
just for sh**s and giggles, have you tried un-checking
"Best Wi-Fi perfomance"

Honestly, 3 HTC Ones having the same problem, and such a specific same problem... Sounds like a problem with your router.
I would try totally resetting your router. Not just unplugging it, but resetting it completely and setting it up again.
I had something similar happen to me (phone wouldn't connect to WiFi upon wake-up, I also had to turn WiFi off then back on) with my HTC Evo several years ago, I exchanged the Evo thinking that was the issue but the exchanged Evo did it too. Re-setup my whole network and have never had the problem again.

I will give that a try. I'm thinking the same way. There's no way I can go through 3 phones and have the same problem and be the only one who is having this problem. I will gladly wear my dunce cap if it works. I just want to end this Shakespearean tragedy.
And to answer andybones, yes the default is to have that selection unchecked so I had the problem even with unchecked.

VZW needs to drop an OTA, QUICKer

Go to a Starbucks, friend's house or something and test it out.
The problem has to be with your router. My One has the best WiFi connection of any device in my house except when I can't run hardwire to my desktop. But that has two 3" antennas.

It's the security, if you're running WPA2 it might have problems. Try changing encryption to TKIP.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. What solved the problem for me was that I went to the Verizon store, had the technician help out, and they Googled the problem and saw that a factory reset would solve the issue. I never saw this result when I Googled the solution, but I went along with it. This worked in the store and I was able to connect to the wi-fi hotspot in the store. When I went home the wi-fi connection worked just fine. The reason I didn't do this in the first place is because I did a factory reset on the first two phones I had and the problem persisted. For whatever reason it worked this time.

i bought htc one and it seems i also have this issue ..BUT .. i have an wifi extender and seems it attachs with it very smoothly .. so i think the problem is inside the router it self ..ill try to figure out why .
EDIT : The problem seems to be only exist on the D-Link Routers which i have "Not sure if all router or just mine" .. it gotta be frequency disturbing or something

Same problem for me. here is what ive gone through..
Just got the phone today OUT OF THE BOX
first thing i seriously tried was connecting to my linksys router with a wpa2 algy.
im on a dumb data plan and need to conserve, Anyway wifi was having a hard time connecting so i slapped the thing in airplain mode and tried to to reconnect to the router.
no dice, ok.. hmm did a factory reset twice, you name it i tried it.
taking it in the store for a replacement this week.

No need
I found out the problem is in the router it self .. you see , it connects to some old routers in condition they dont have password ... Im not sure why but i changed my router and with new one and gave it password and everything works fine now.
The problem seems to be in old routers i think.
Edit : my new router is tp-link im not sure about others

This worked for me
WiFi connection issues with HTC M7 can be overcome by renaming your device.
Settings

Triple dots (top rh corner)
WiFi direct
Change name to HTC one
Click ok.
