[Q] Defy not connecting to wifi network :(

Hi,
After upgrading to CM7 i was not able to connect to my Wi-Fi Network.after going through some threads i found that some people do face the problem so i again upgraded to WajkIUI 1.7.15 But sadly i am still not able to connect to my home network even after removing all security from the network it just shows network remembered and on pressing on connect is just shows scanning ... can any 1 help please.
Thanks In advance

This may sound like a no brainer but if you haven't already, reboot your router and see if it helps. Or perhaps switch to either B, G, or N rather than running your router in mixed mode. Seems like most peoples WiFi problems with cm7 are router related

Just did that but no help i guess i need to downgrade to Stock 2.2

Do you have a Titanium Backup of your system?
If so, reload your wifi configuration. I had problems with wifi too not finding any networks, and restoring it fixed things.
Compass.

even i had same problem but this method fix my problem .... here is the solution ...
The problem is that the defy is getting an IP address from your router and holding on to it. If a new device comes onto the network it will try to reassign you an IP but the defy will not allow, still wanting the old IP address.
The Fix is to create a static IP address. Go into settings .....wireles nd network ...wifi settings.....click menu and then advanced and click use static IP address....now look up your dns server, gateway and netmask and set the corresponding fields in your defy settings.
I hope this helps becuase I was banigng my head over the table for 3 days trying to fix this.
Oh and u have to turn static off when you use your wifi at another location....

[Q] Weird wifi issue

Hi everyone,
I'm enjoying my One X since last Thursday. I did have one problem, though : my wifi wasn't working at home. What happened is that the phone correctly connected at the network, but then it would "kill" the wifi.
I mean, neither of my laptop computer nor my old Desire (which were both connected before the One X) worked on wifi after I connected the One X, which by the way didn't work either.
Considering this issue I wen't to the carphone warehouse to have another phone.
I didn't go home straight, I got to try other wifi network, which worked perfectly.
But, at home, I'm still having the same issue !
Can anyone help me please ?

so none of your hardware is now connecting to your Wifi?
If so, I would suggest a hard reset of your Hub/router. If there is a reset button hold it in for 20-30 seconds, if not, unplug for 30 seconds.
If it's just your One X not connecting try going through settings to ensure its setup correctly.

Had the same issue with my sgs and avm fritzbox 7390. The only thing that helped was a complete factory reset of the fritzbox.

Try using a static ip, make sure it is unique.

There is a setting under wifi advanced to stop the wifi from sleeping when phone is off or kill it if the signal drops or if your phone is idle. I modified those and it works perfectly. Default setting is to kill it.
Nothing is wrong with your wifi. It's just the way you've got it setup.

Actually, my laptop and Desire are connected to the Wifi ; they can't connect only after i set my One X on the Wifi. It's like the phone is destroying the wifi network.

I didn't find those settings. In wifi advanced I only found an setting that disconnect the phone when signal is low.
I should mention that whenever the One X is set on wifi, it works for like a minute. Then all of my devices can't access the internet. Desire and One X are showing that they are connected, but no access to play store, browser... Computer is showing an error message "limited access". And my TV (which I get with my internet box) is freezing.
What I don't understand is that I tried on two friends' network, everything worked perfectly. Only at home As Cxpher said, I guess it must be my wifi that isn't set up correctly. But what can I do next, except hard reset and static ip ?
EDIT : I tried to connect the One X without having any other device connected. It worked, but as soon as I launched the Play Store, I lost the connection and had to reboot my box. Apparently the Play Store is messing everything up. Weither I have hardware connected or not, it never works (again, only at home).

Up.
Anyway, not being able to use my own wifi is a bit annoying

Same exact issue. Phone going back tomorrow.
WiFi fine for 2 years.
New one x WiFi dropping and having to reset router after 2 mins connected as all WiFi dies.
Seriously fcukd off!

Which router do you have? Is there any logging-function available in the router software/firmware?

Standard netgear.
It's been fine with s2 and hasn't needed to be reset for a over a year....until yesterday!.
Not overly tech, would a log facility help?

A log would help to see what is going on with the router when the phone connects. The fritzbox showed an authentication error when my sgs connected and killed the wifi for all devices in the network. Just googled your problem. Netgear and htc devices seem to have problems very often when connecting. You should try to get the newest fw for the netgear. Maybe that solves the problem.

Thanks for your help. Latest firmware is installed tho.
Bizzar issue!
Shame as its a nice phone too

I have a classic french box (called Bbox). For the record that actually is my second phone. I had the same issue with the first one, so I went directly to ask another one.

So has exchange phone resolved the issue?

Sorry I explained it wrong. I meant I already had the problem when I first bought the phone, so I went to get another one. I had the issue on both One X.

Well i have got a netgear router and have no problems at all must be something to do with you router or it setting i would do full reset and see if that helps

hi guys!
i had the same problem with my router ( netgear DGN 1000), i solved by updating the router firmware to latest manually! no more wifi drops now!
i hope this information can help all users with this issue!

In an other thread somebody had advised to deactivate the wifi password in the router. That helped fix the problem at his phone. I will try this too to confirm that. But wifi without password is an absolute NoGo in my opinion.
here the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24811292&postcount=6

I'm bringing this up again because issue is still here ; removing encryption on the wifi network changes nothing. Other thing now, it didn't only happened at home but also at work.
Warranty is now void, this is my second HOX and I had the same problem on both. Anyone has a magic solution ?

same issue
Im having the same wifi issue using a D-Link DIR-615. Wifi is working perfectly with other device but when my One X connect to wifi, it freeze the wifi network for all devices. I Always need to unplug/plug the AC cord to reboot and refresh the wifi network and after it may works for a couple of mins or maybe 1 hour and after I must reboot the router again.
My router firmware is up to date but there is no more support/firmware update for the DIR-615 REV. B since 2008!
I switched to static ip and snag persist so im back in dhcp.
I cleared the router log and will post it next time it will freeze.

[Q] Wifi issue with an repeater

Hello XDA Team and Member,
first I want to thank for the great Forum here and the Members and Developers too.
I have an issue with mit OneX. When I have a connection with my wifi-repeater mit OneX show me potential Wifi-signal 100% but there is no Internet. The Websites or Apps like Facebook do'snt loading. Connection lost is the message of my OneX. Every other Cellphone, Notebook, PC or IPad is working fine with this repeater (Telekom W100).
My OneX working fine when I go one step to the right and the Wifi-signal comes from my router. Don't know why, but with my Desire, my Sensation and my Wildfire S is no problem like that.
Doesnt find anything in XDA-search or google except a threat at german Telekom-forum... doesnt helped yet. Sorry, my english is horrible.
Please help me
Thank you...

Welcome to forum!
This issue can be tricky to solve. It would seem that One X is confused by repeater and thinks it is router.
You could try to manually assign IP adress from within One X, see if that helps?
Settings > Wifi > longpress on network name -> Modify -> scroll down to Advanced Options -> IP (change from DHCP to static).
Then set gateway and dns to what your main router ip. Good luck

HAWKINS, roxcyc
Thanks for your answer.
Try to change to static but nothing happens. Same problem. This repeater is configurate with wps. The strange thing is that there is no changes of IP or anything when the OneX is change the Wifi conection to the repeater but the sides stops to load and don't loading anytime I connected to the repeater. Try to change from wpa to wep and give a shout about the result...

Hi,
There is another thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26915135
With similar symptoms to the issue you are having. I'm having the same. WEP might help but easy to crack from a security point of view. I have the same issue but only with my WiFi AP at home. In other areas it works fine so I have not been able to find what is causing this. You can try and disable the N radio in your repeater and see if that works too as a poster said in another thread...for me this has not worked but worth a try.

Hi,
try to set off the N mode in my router a week a go. Doesn't help. WEP doesn't work either. Don't have a glue why only my oneX have this prob and all other devices working :-( Try some things more and post the result when it's solved.
Edit: Get a 2nd HOX in a few days... Try that if the isseu is standard with all HOX or only with my. Had try to chance the Radio/ Baseband. Set a fix IP. Nothing helped.
....
Got a new HOX and try to connect with wifi over the repeater... nothing changed, same prob like with the other HOX and two different HOX's from friends of mine. HTC sayed: "All HOX's are busted and have to sent to repair! LOLLLLLL What the fu** ! Been with a HTC since round about 10 years and now I think about a draft.
So problem still NOT fixed!

solved?

One X Wifi Problems After 4.2.2 Update

Hello, i know this has been discussed here before, but i wanted to ask for help anyway. My Wifi was working perfectly fine on Android 4.1, but after this update to 4.2.2 its really bad.
I know its software issue, pressing right top corner of my HOX doesnt help at all. I tried factory reset, but it didnt help. I´m running official ROM and no root. The problem is that sometimes when i have full signal strenght, the wifi speed is still horrible (like 0.5mb on 10mb wifi).
Any suggestions what to try? Thanks a lot

I have exactly the same problem. All HTC customer service suggested was factory reset, tried that and no difference. On 4.1 it worked fine on my wifi at home throughout the house, now on 4.2, works ok downstairs but useless upstairs even when it says I have 4 bars of signal. Very one times flaky though and sometimes drops to 1 or none. This is a disaster as I understand there is no way to roll back to 4.1. This is unbelievable!! How can an official update totally break basic functionality with no way back!? Searched all over Internet to find a solution and no luck, even though a fair few people seem ro have this problem. Is not a hardware problem, as OP, squeezing top right makes no difference. Have tried static IP, doesn't help. Desperate for help, can any wise heads on here suggest anything? Thanks!
So wish I had not updated, it worked brilliantly before.

Same situation here after the update... With full signal keep having horrible Wifi speed... :'(

Do you have the same problem 4play975? Seems quite a few people do..! As per OP my phone is not rooted and don't want to root it really.
Any chance anyone can suggest any other solutions to try?
Failing that, some details on what Richmondos fix is would be useful!!

Yeah, I really dont want to root my phone too, because i have warranty for more than 1 year now and I will sell the phone in future, so I dont wanna risk loosing warranty..

I also have similar problem! But it varies, sometimes it's bad and sometimes not??? Phone is stock and locked and don't want to unlock and install custom stuf, until warranty period is over.

Hello to all
I have the same wi-fi problem on my HTC One X since I made the update.
Is there any way to solve this?I hope so, because Wi-Fi signal is very bad, and I use it a lot of time.
I have CWM recovery installed,bootloader unlocked, and s-on, recently I have rooted my phone,
but at this moment is not.
I dont care installing new kernel, radio,etc........I just want to solve this problem :crying:
Tanks to all

I have a problem with my wifi too since the Andriod 4.2.2 and Sense 5 update, but it seems to be a bit different from yours. The speedtest.net app and the ping & DNS app give the same results as my PC that is hard wired to the router, so speed and ping seem to be fine.
But I get errors like Connection Problem Authentication via the proxy server was unsuccessful - but I don't use a proxy server. In the HOX wifi settings for that router the Proxy settings are Manual, Proxy hostname 127.0.0.1 and proxy port 3128. Are these correct for when there is no proxy? If switch from Manual to None and go back in then it has gone back to those settings.
Another error is Connection Problem this page contains too many server redirects. But the page displays fine if I switch to mobile data.
Or I get Connection Problem there was a network error. Again it works fine on mobile data.
Then there are some webpages that give a 404 page cannot be found error. Again it works fine on mobile data.
Some of these problems are repeatable on the same webpages across different routers in different buildings.
Sometimes when connecting to a router the HOX connects and the loses the connection and then reconnects up to 10 times before settling on the connection.
Like you I would rather not root etc if possible.

So, noone know a solution for users without root? I found out that on some wifi (in school), it works quite fine even on worse signal. But before update, it was ok on every wifi..

Hi
i have the same problem with my wlan connection. Nearly 100kb/s.
I had tested my internet download speed on my computer and takes interesting information:
my internet connection is 70MBit, this means i can download with nearly 8,2 MB/s.
If my HOX is not connected to the router, the whole downloadspeed is available on the computer. But if the HOX is connected, the downloadspeed is only 1 MB/s.
After disconnecting and rebooting the router, the internet connection is as well as before.
Does anyone makes the experiences?
regards
Daniel

I don't have the speed problems, Speedtest.net app gives the same results on my HOX as my PC.
One of my wifi problems is to do with the Wi-fi connecting to a weak signal instead of the stronger one - I have worked around this by installing WiFi Fixer App which works well at switching to the stronger signal.
Also there are some websites that give errors like Server Error too Many Redirects (for example http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ does that for me) or 404 Error - Page Cannot be Found (http://fahrbot.co.uk/) or are sometimes slow to load - I have found that these issues don't happen with the Opera Mini app, so why does the stock browser give these problems when on wifi, but not on mobile data?
Another one is that if I click a link in a webpage (or type in a URL) that takes me to a webpage that has a mobile version as well as the desktop version I get a strange URL that doesn't work. For example on mobile data typing in www.abmobileapps.com takes me to the mobile version of the website, but on wifi the URL automatically changes to http://www.abmobileapps.comhttp/www.abmobileapps.com/ and the page cannot be found. Again it works in mini Opera on wifi.

WIFI FIX
if you use rooted device, use lyapota mods and flash modpack http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2114584 (contin wififix and other).
for me works great :highfive: (my router has openwrt)

I found out that on some other wifis speed works just fine. I have router D-Link DIR-600 with stronger antenna than it was stock. I use WPA2 security and Dynamic IP.
Is there anything what I should try to fix it? Thanks for any suggestions.

Here are some advices how to fix the WiFi issues - router dependent (need access to the router setup):
1. Make sure that you are not using channel 11-13
2. Disable "WMM Support" in router Wireless -> Advanced Settings. Note: this will force G-only speed (54Mb)
3. You you want to keep the N speed, put your phone in the highest possible QoS priority without disabling the "WMM Support"
Hope this helps

after flashing lyopotas mod pack my hox'S wifi seems to work again like it's supposed
maybe it helps

After update,
i can't use my home wifi (Innacomm),using other wifi okay.
conneted but can't surf internet (error 404) but can only use opera mini (very very very slow).
Using other device no problem with the wifi..anyone can help me? TQ :crying:

The problems I am having with proxy and 404 errors are all caused by the Web Protection feature in Kaspersky Internet Security for Android since the OTA to Android 4.2.2 (it worked fine previously). I have installed the latest KIS 11.1.4.141 from the Kaspersky website (because Google Play says it is up to date at version 11.1.3) but the problem still occurs. So I have turned off Web Protection in KIS and all my issues have been cleared up.

Sense 5 wifi n-mode and wifi fix

Hi all
I believe the HOX has a wireless n compatible receiver..well I'm Viper ROM that has the wifi fix and I was checking the possibility of connecting to the wifi with just n-mode enabled in it...As soon as I switch to wireless-n, the phone's wifi disconnects and cannot connect again to the modem...All my other devices connect well even in this mode...So the question really is does the wifi fix really fix anything? It doesn't matter which ROM I'm on...I have to check with the pure stock ROM to see if the wifi works then...
Watch this space...in the meantime, pls let me know your comments on the above
