Just had system update notifier, so I installed it (am now on build no: 1.21.405.2 CL174215) and am unable to start wi-fi or bluetooth?
Could it be anything to do with this being an orange handset that I have de-branded?
Same problem after update, but bluetooths works, but get messege unable to start WIFI
anyideas ?
I've got this issue too. Debranded T-Mobile device.
hi everyone !
same problem for me, french Desire Orange unbranded ...
only WiFi does not work. Bluetooth seems ok.
hi all, I think we all are in the same boat, it appeared that only debranded phones are affected. mine debranded T-Mobile as well. damn, I was so happy when I saw an OTA update at the first time. who could expect it will kill my wi-fi. however, I've seen guys on another forum that the problem is solved if you reload the full ROM from the beginning, even 1.21 works great. I've just downloaded one from this thread, going to install now and see. the problem is that you have to back up everything because it will kill all data on your phone. personally I'm not going to backup as there's not much to loose there for me and I wish to have a very clean install. cheers!
Same problem here with french Orange de-branded and not rooted ....
I'm going to try a radio upgrade, it could handle the problem, but it seems that newest radios sim lock Orange phones
Same problem with my debranded T-Mobile Desire. Can't flash the original RUU I found here in this forum. My desire starts and hangs at the black screen showing the HTC Logo but did not continue flashing the rom. By unplugging the USB Cable the bootloader appears and show 0.75. I thought it must show 0.80 ? Any ideas how to flash the rom that brings back my WLAN?
For anyone experiencing Wi-Fi problems, check out this thread:

I helped another member to get his Wi-Fi connection working after he had upgraded to the latest modified Kernel version by Richard Trip.
Note: Your phone will need to be rooted to apply the kernel flash zip file in recovery mode.
Best Regards,
Mas.
well I'm back up and running but only after buying an unlock code from htccode (Thanks Sudarshan)
Couldn't see a way round it as I'm not rooted but I suppose, although the handset is branded, it's now unlocked and running htc software instead of that sodding orange messed up stuff!
OK I solved the problem with the broken WiFi Connection.
I replaced the ROM with one posted here in this forum.
I just flashed it and after the reboot, i have had the new ROM with a working WiFi Connection.
There is a strange thing that I revognized during the procedure. The ROM with the broken WiFi Link showed me a bootloader version of 0.75, after the flash I got 0.80.
I would be interested if some users have the 0.75 bootloader too even after the update.
Hope I could help some of you guys still having the problem.

Flash one of the kernels (boot.img) and bcm439.ko. Richard Trip is the only one that has them packaged, so download his and flash via recovery. make sure your wifi is off first.

Have now updated using the GoldCard methed, now the WiFi working Fine, but now have another problem, the Phone is now saying please enter "Sim Network Unlock PIN"
HELP !!!!
You've to unlock your phone. Go to "htcsimunlock.com", enter your phone modell and your IMEI No. You'll get the requested unlock code but you've to pay for.
Made the same procedure yesterday and it worked fine without unlocking the device. Maybe it's because it won't be nessessary in germany, I don't know.

Hi
Did you need to pay Orange to get the unlock code? I'm in the same position you were in. Unbranded HTC Desire from Orange.
Thanks
Hi all !
I have bought a branded HTC Desire HD and I wanted to :
- unlock SIM
- change rom with unbranded one
I have used "[TOOL][VIDEO] One click Radio S-OFF, SimUnlock (Easy Root Guide)" and setup an unbranded ROM
But now I can't register on any network (according to the SIM I have inserted) but when it's start it asks me my PIN.
Another thing is when I do manual network search I can find network, but never the good one according to my sim.
I have tried to update the radio and change the ROM (Cyanogen included) but nothing works. I have tried 3 sims with differents providers and none can catch the good network.
Does anyone has an idea to solve my problem ?
Thanks !!!
I have the network unlock code for my ROOTED Orange HTC Desire which says it is accepted when entered. Once the phone has booted on the non-Orange sim it doesn't receive a signal from the network and an error is reported when I try and search for available networks. Each time I reboot the phone I have to re-enter the Network Unlock code again.
The SIM card being used is active as I have proved it on another SIM free phone.
I am running Redux-2 2.31 ROM with the original Radio.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Does anybody know how to overcome the problem?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, and firstly, thanks to any and all who offer their knowledge to assist my conundrum.
I recently purchased a Bell Canada version of the SG Note 2 (i317), I am on Telus so I attempted to Unlock the phone. I looked online and found people were having success unlocking these phones for free using the *#197327640# method, (whereby you go into the service mode, turn off the PERSHO_256 and then INITIALLIZ).
I tried this method and the phone then seemed to work with my telus sim, but only for voice, not data. When I put in a Bell SIM from a friend, both voice and data worked fine - which tells me its not a hardware (radio) issue. I also tried using another friends Telus SIM and had the same results as mine - which tells me it's not a SIM error. Also, all the settings in the mobile network area appeared to be correctly set up.
So, my next step was to try and reflash the phone to the stock Bell ROM and then just buy an Unlock code. I downloaded the stock ROM (2 different ones actually) and used Odin 3.07 to reload the ROM. I've tried it several times now, with both Bell ROMs and each time it says it's been successful, but the phone remains in the same, partially unlocked state.
It seems as though by using the PERSHO_256 method I have permanently, PARTIALLY unlocked the phone. I can't seem to re-lock it by installing the stock Bell ROM, and since it's unlocked, I can't get the foreign SIM error to come up to enable me to put in my purchased unlock code.
If anyone has any insights, it would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

did you check and/or setup the apn? it may be just the apn is not set correctly or you have to manually input hte apn
sounds like just APN needs setting...
APN?
How would I check/setup the APN? Is this to allow me to do a full reflash to a stock ROM or to access data with the phone in it's current state?
left ownsho
So I went into ACCES POINT NAMES and checked the sp.telus.net box, no change. Did a restart. No change Any ideas?
Wooooo Hooooo!!!
So, it's working now!!! I dug a little deeper and found the correct APN settings for TELUS. NOW IT F*@^&#*&@ING WORKS!
Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction!!!
Hi all. I have purchased a second hand 10 locked to Telstra and have tried everything humanly possible to get it to accept a Vodafone sim. It is currently running the 1.95.841.3 firmware (Telstra stock) and is driving me bat **** crazy.
I have even given in and paid Telstra $25 to unlock it. The only drama is when inserting the Vodafone sim upon rebooting it doesn't offer up the option to enter the sim unlock code.
I have sporadic connectivity with no data connection, and trouble registering on the Vodafone network.
I have unlocked the bootloader, it's s-off and I have successfully changed it to wwe and unlocked us variants, tried the latest viper and eventually resolved to flashing back to stock rom.
Every thing I have tried still has the same issue. Mobile data is disconnected because service is unavailable.
Do I have to flash a different radio, firmware or just give in and switch to Telstra?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
