For the past few months, there was no issue with the wifi reception of the phone whatsoever.
But liked for a few days now, I've been experiencing low signals lately.. At home, usually, the connection is excellent. Now, it's just too good to poor.
I don't know what's happening. I've tried reflashing the rom, flashing the kernel, and its still there.. Any insights?

Have you tried the squeeze test? My phone got this problem a month ago, must send it to HTC.
What squeeze test?

Which rom/kernel do you use?

This is a common issue with HOX, I had the same problem, had to send it to be repaired.
Squeeze hard were the front camera is - if the signal gets better, you have to send it in to repair.

OH SNAP. T.T It worked. What should I do? I don't have warranty for my phone..
Check out some youtube videos, I opened mine up and glued some foil down on the wifi copper plate, dont have a wifi problem anymore. If it plays up again ill solder wires from the plate to the pins. You choose

If something's not working (and you're not at fault, which you're obviously not here), that means it's time to call up T-Mobile customer support and exchange your G2.
Thanx

I am having the same problem all of a sudden
Mines functions properly now..all I did was give the speaker a few taps n it started back working

I saw the Teardown photos of the G2 the other day.
After seeing those, it's clear why this happens. The speaker is basically one piece attached to the back plastic panel with simple contacts built into it. The mating contacts are soldered to the mainboard. When they assemble the phone the contacts just press together. So really it can be very susceptible to dust, drops, bumps, or even slight moisture.
I work in a semi dusty environment though, and I haven't had any issues with mine. But with winter here now I'm sure it will see a lot more moisture so I'm crossing my fingers.
Today i dropped my one x on the flor and after that my WiFi reception is weaker,can this be true?
Update: I tryed squeeze test ad WiFi signal goes up 2 bars and then drops I guess that antenna connection is damaged.

There are no visible damage on him, so I will send him back to the HTC repair shop. I will tell them that it was faulty from day one.

Hi,
my HOX fell down this night two times.
This morning i wanted to take a picture, but my Cam doesnt work??
When I want to open the Cam App the Cam Window appears but its black.
The Mirror doesnt work neither.
Is this a Hardware or a Software Issue?
My Phone is flashed

I think if you dropped it and didn't do anything to it software wise its very probably a hardware issue
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Reflash it to make sure it isn't a hardware failure.
If it still won't work then, the hardware is dead

The warranty does not cover excessive physical abuse. Usually whenever you buy anything, accidental damage is not covered, which is why you can buy insurance.
Same thing happened to me after the 4.0.4 update ( black screen no camera or mirror ) , after few restart it's started working again .
Same problem here cam stopped work for unknown reason haven't droped the phone added new software or anythink like that.
Worked one day and next day it doesn't
HTC will tell you to try and clear the cache
Getting pretty good coverage, sometime my signal turns off. Hey developers I'm waiting for ROMS.

Maybe you have problems with the reciver at the behind cover of the phone, have some gold metal parts, it do of reciver.
l have a frien with a Sensation that have that problem, is because the cover of the phone cant contact the reciver module on the board of the phone.
Other is maybe the software, try to restore to stock, my stock rom dont have any problem with signal.
I have problems with my bluetooth headphones. It will connect and I can hear music for about 1 minute then it stops, my phone becomes unresponsive then it will usually reboot but get stuck. I usually have to pull the battery to restart.
I'm curious if there is something that I have flashed in the past to cause this.
The headphones work fine on my wifes 4g touch and my galaxy tablet as well.
I've even unrooted and went back to stock but still no luck.

Make sure all the screws in the back of the phone are very tight. If one is loose you may have a bad antenna connection.
I checked all the screws, they are all tight.

I'm wondering if I were to switch the motherboard out with a phone that has a bad ESN will that affect this phone?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
The ESN follows the board unless you were to do that which we do not talk about on this board...
Hint
Hint.
Interesting, I didnt have that in mind, but may be worth a try. I saw some cheap S2's on ebay with bad ESN's. I'm just interested in getting my bluetooth working. I removed my motherboard last night just to see if I could see anything work visually. I already sent my phone to Samsung but they said it was OOW for having a cracked screen. The wanted to charge $160 to fix it.

You can get used E4GTs all day long for under $100 in good condition on Craigslist where I am. I usually see them running $50-$75, but I paid $30 for the last one I bought.
I would suggest buying a new one, and selling the defective one on eBay for parts. If the shell is in fair condition someone will buy it.
The other option, if you are not under contract, is to consider an upgrade to the s4. I have seen some $0-$50 prices so far this holiday season.
