I have a annoying problem with the inbuilt Google Talk app on my Desire.
When I turn the screen off Google Talk disconnects from the server and I don't receive any new messages until I turn the screen back on. Google Talk displays a message saying "Lost connection to server. Messages will be sent when online".
I have "always-on mobile data" active in my network settings. Have tried to disable the automatic away status and even resetting the phone to no avail. I have also created a new Google account and that hasn't helped either.
I use my phone on the Aussie 3 network. Can anyone else with Desire on the Aussie 3 network tell me whether or not theirs is doing the same? Also my Desire is the Aussie Telstra branded one.
Just to note the only way I can use Google Talk properly is if I use eBuddy. eBuddy does not disconnect when the screen is off.
Hi danielhtc,
How did you go with solving this problem?
I too have a HTC Desire and use the 3 network in Brisbane. All was working fine with Google Talk up to a few weeks ago when I started noticing that I would just loose connection. Not sure if the problem started immediately after the Froyo update, I wish I paid more attention now.
Using the GTalk Service App from the market I see that I'm loosing connection all the time. At first it appeared to be random, and know it is almost everytime the phone screen locks.
I spent hours trawling the net and still have no answer. I have flushed the cached data for Talk, Factory reset the phone and even tried a new Gmail account with a factory reset of the phone, all to no avail.
I've talked with 3 and they calim they can't do anything to help me figure out what is going on as it not a 3 Australia supplied handset so no guarantees etc..
Strange thing is that it was working fine for months, and then all at a sudden problems... At the moment my money is that 3 has done something to their data network, however it still could be an issue with the phone. Unfortunately until I can try my account with a new Desire I wont know for certain.

hello all, im having this strange behaviour on my htc desire
i connect to my corporate wifi which is 802.1x auth
previously i was on android 2.2 and all worked smooth it automatically connect to the network everytime it was in range (it saved correctly 802.1x user/pass + credential storage in a way i didnt need to readd)
now that i switched to android 2.3.3 im still able to connect, but it is not an automatical thing, i need to reenter my credential storage password every time im in range otherwise im not able to connect; this could be ok if it would happen once a day, but since where i work there are lot of hotspot, sometimes i go out and enter buildings, i need to insert my "credential storage" password a lot of times;
it looks like a known problem, but ssems none had a way to fix it... any advice?
thank you

I have exactly the same problem - did you ever find a fix ?
A phone that needs a user-entered-password everytime it wants to use a WiFi connection is beyond useless
Sorry to post on an old thread, but I am having this exact issue since upgrading to 2.3. Was this ever sorted out?

Nope
I see a lot of threads complaining about this issue, but no solutions.
Is there any way to have the requirement for this password bypassed after a reboot?
Is there any setting, hack or app that will enter it for you automatically?
Failing that, is there any way to stop the phone continuously trying and failing to connect when the password hasn't been entered?
If I go into work having rebooted the previous evening, and forget to put this password in, then I sometimes pull my phone out of my pocket after an hour and find my battery down to 50% due to the constant connection attempts!
I've just disabled the WiFi on mine, and I use the mobile network instead.
As you've found out, if you don't do this then you'll find your battery life vanishes very quickly !
The WiFi is basically useless for 802.1x on the Desire.
backup credetial with titanium backup.... and clean data, after restore...
Hi everyone
Here's the situation. My Mum passed away in December very suddenly. Her Desire Z is really causing us trouble. She had a screen lock pattern set, which we haven't been able to guess.
We have reset her Google passwords (since we didn't know the old ones) but the device has WiFi turned off, and mobile data turned off, so when we try to login to one of her Google accounts to reset the screen lock it says "invalid username and password". For these reason I also can't send an unlock reset from Google device manager. I've obviously tried connecting it via a USB cable just to copy photos or any other files but it won't even do that while it's locked. It just doesn't seem to recognise that a USB cable is connected, unless it's plugged into a charger.
I've googled it at length and tried all sorts of tricks like calling the phone and clicking certain buttons, opening the keyboard at exactly the right moment, and so on. Unfortunately nothing has worked.
I know how to hard reset the device, but is there any way at all to get access to it before I do so?
Thanks so much for any help you can offer.
Hello,
I’ve been having a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S3 since the last update where I am unable to use my Settings. Every time I tried to access something in the Settings, it would display a message that reads ‘Unfortunately, Settings has stopped working.’ I’ve tried a factory reset and it still does not work. I’m now stuck at a Welcome screen and I can see that my data is working again. I don’t know what to do anymore.
I recently plugged in my HTC 10 to my computer to use the HTC Sync app for the first time with this device.
(I had used it previously to sync my HTC One M9).
A message popped up on my phone asking me if I wanted to enable Wireless Sync. Of course, I said "YES!" and was then directed to enter an IP address and port number in the browser on my laptop. However, my phone was on a different WiFi network at the time so I canceled it.
Now, I can't get it to come back up. I even went to the HTC App on my phone and cleared cache and data and disabled/enabled the app, but no joy.
I chatted with HTC support and was told it was a one-time thing. If I canceled it, I would not be prompted again.
I really want this feature, but not bad enough to wipe my phone.
Suggestions? Help?
Thanks!
