hi guys, go easy on me its my first post
love the website the guides have helped me to successfully downgrade, s-off and flash custom roms to my dhd
I searched for the answer to this question but couldnt find anything. Is there any plan for custom rom developers to fix the 2.3.3 rom wifi compatability problems with speedtouch modems, as this is the only reason i cant use 2.3.3 based roms? (a lot of people have this problem with the stock rom but it is also in leedroids new one, android rev. etc) Would like to ask this in the android dev section but i need 10 posts for that.
Thanks for the help you lot have already given me, and i love the video!

Hi, welcome and congrats on your first post.
What specifically is the problem with the wifi? Is it specific to a type of authorisation (WEP, WPA/2) issue or something else?
thanks
this is a link to a detailed description of this exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1063103.html
i really dont expect anyone to go through the hassle of reading this, so summarized it says that ever since the gingerbread 2.3.3 update the phone is capable of connecting to all modems, but cannot transfer data on certain ones (such as the speedtouch modems)
I found a good post on this in a german forum a couple of weeks ago but i cant find it now, (i'll keep looking) but it said the problem was that some modems transmit with n and some with b or something like that. and that the only answer was to wait (ages) for a stock rom update (2.3.4?) as 2.3.3 isn't compatible with these types of modems
i would have expected this had been solved in the custom roms though
this is a qoute from the link below
"It turns out the Be Box router which Be supplied, which is a THOMSON ST585v6, is not compatible but also other versions of THOMSON routers as well."
ptth://vvv.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc-desire-hd-troubleshooting/wifi-issue-with-gingerbread-update/ (change the ptth to http and vvv to www) i cant post outside links
Ok, just read through that thread. What model of Speedtouch router are you using?
One workaround is to use a static IP. Have you tried this? I can help you set this up if required.
HTC seem to blame this issue on Google, as an Android issue. Not sure about that as any ROM that uses Gingerbread would exhibit the same problem, which isn't the case.
modem is a Thompson Speedtouch ST585 v6
Thanks but i have already tried and the modem only works with dynamic IPs (tried to solve it with a static IP for ages with my dad but it didnt work xD)
This qoute from dioky on page 4 of the link below states (i'm pretty certain) the problem: (i clicked the thanks button for this answer)
"Hi there,
I have the same WiFi problems as all of you.
Furthermore I can confirm that changing ROM (ARHD or Leedroid) won't help, if you stay with Gingerbread versions, that is.
I found out that:
* Data won't flow (although connected fine) to SpeedTouch WiFi access point (b/g).
* Data won't flow (although connected fine) through D-Link DAP1360 .
* BUT: does flow (and connected fine off course) through Belkin G Plus MIMO access point (g)!
I have rechecked it by reflashing back to ARHD 3.7 returning to ARHD 5.1.7 and ARHD 5.1.4 and LeeDroiD 3.0.3.
Which in all, makes me conclude that there definitely is something on the software side concerning compatibility!
For now, I will return to ARHD 3.7 Android 2.2.1 until solution is found.
Regards,"

Does anybody know if the Rom devs.plan to solve this (or even know about this problem)?
any ideas peeps?? this is a major problem for me
You want to try giving a static IP another shot?
i'm pretty sure it wont work as i tried to solve the prob like this but whatever i did i couldnt get it to work. but i'll give it another shot. another idea would maybe be updating the modem drivers if there is such a thing?
What is your routers current firmware version? And is that a branded router?
i really have no idea. i'm a total noob with routers
can you tell me an easy way how i could find out?
Sure, are you using your PC to access the web at the minute?
If you install TeamViewer I could show you.
?????? What is that ?
Its a piece of software that will allow me to remotely control a computer.
I can confirm that I have this problem with 2.3.3 and my Thomson/SpeedTouch 585v6 (FW 6.1.4.3) too.
It seems to connect WiFi fine, even assigns an IP but nothing actually works.
Solution for Wifi problem 2.3.3
Hello!
I have the same problem on my DHD with 2.3.3
Before there is an permanent fix for this You could manually configure the IP adress in the phones Wifi and it works great.
You can not use the DHCP in the phone.

I should have mentioned that I actually have a HTC Desire (not HD). But the ROM is a 2.3.3. It actually assigns the IP via DHCP just fine.
I have already tried manually assigning the IP address (and other fields) but still no luck.
There are those who can connect with a manual IP and a few, even after assigning it manually, still can not connect.
i tried using a static IP but it doesnt work..tried for days now
sounds like i am one of the few it doesnt work for after assigning manually...
i am a total noob but i was wondering if it would be possible for a custom rom dev to take the wifi drivers from froyo and use them in a gingerbread based rom??
UPDATE
I called up my ISP requesting a newer firmware for the 585v6 router (although I know it is no longer supported). Anyway, without any hassle at all, they gave me the newer: TG585 v7 router with firmware 8.2.23.0 (pre-installed).
This connects without any problems to my 2.3.3 ROM (RCMix 2.0).
Hey,
After fresh install of FXP 128 my wifi worked for few hours, but later it refuses to connect to any wifi, because the "signal is too low" or something.. how to fix this?
Actually try getting close to your modem/router first and connecting again or if its still unable to connect reboot your phone

Already did that, didn't help.
Then CM9 probably has an issue with wifi, i guess you'll have to wait until an new RC comes out
Try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28442213&postcount=2998
Delete /data/misc/dhcp/dhcp_list
I have no files in dhcp/
Another wifi problem
I was also having trouble getting wifi to work using JJ hybrid mix 3.1 + Arcknight kernel 3,3 and 3,4, had to use stock kernel
The solution from JJ'to reboot after installing he's kernel didn't work for me.
I've had cyanogenmod 7.2 installed prior JJ.
I've wanted to post this error to JJ's thread under development, but I don't have enough posts made.

I'm sorry for mistake. I used to have some similar funny situation... wifi in my brother's house is protected by WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] and my arc can't connect to him router (authorization problem ?!) . I have the same router and the same protection protocol and in my home wifi works good.
(Sorry for ungrammatical English)
I'm also having a poor signal even when my router is very close to me...I have 2 WiFi routers and from both I get the same issue...I have deleted the files on dhcp folder but doesn't have the dhcp_list folder neither...
I have installed CM9 and previously had SE standard ROM 4.0.4
Any idea what to do?
i am runing FXP130-cm-9-20120720-UNOFFICIAL-anzu on my LT18i, but ever since i installed it it wont connect to any wifi network...
it says its acquiring ip adress about 20 times and then says it abandoned the network cause of poor internet connection even though im standing next to the router... and it does that no matter which wifi i try to connect...
anyone knows maybe how to solve this problem pls...?

I honestly cant remember, but i wrote in the 1st reply which kernel version i got... how can i find out if thats the right version?
Sent from my Arc S using xda app-developers app
ive just read that the cyanogenmod 9 which im using already has its own kernel built in it, so im guessing it has the right one for it, but i cant use my wifi...
any suggestions?
just delete dhcp list and reboot phone
use root browser lite from google market, navigate to root: /data/misc/, delete dhcp folder, reboot phone.
omg, tnx so much for the info!!!
worked like a charm!
finally i got wifi back!
i'm going to borrow this thread, i have wifi problem too, yesterday i got connected to cable network, so now my router setting are on automatic dhcp-for cable, before was pppoe and that worked great, now on that dhcp can't get wifi to work, i can find my network and connect to it, but it's no internet. on the same rom and everything i got wifi working no problem, so the only problem here is that dhcp.
edit: my sister is having the same problem on samsung s8500 running bada and before network change he can connect to wifi with no problem, not it's the same as for me.
any ideas?

You should install the WiFi modules, that can be downloaded from same place as the ROM itself.
Sent from LT18i with custom firmware by myself.
Hello everyone,
I currently have an issue with my arc S (LT18i) where 3G doesn't work anymore on any Sony stock ROM. I am aware that my carrier supports the needed basebands, and I am in an area where my service has 3G with full signals. I have tried the following:
I have switched ROMs from ICS and Gingerbread & tried reflashing, but still 3G doesn't work. I have no problems with 2G however.
Changing kernels didn't help too. I normally use LuPuS, but the problem still remains.
I first thought it was a hardware issue, but then I switched to CyanogenMOD and MIUI, 3G works on both ROMs. So it's not a hardware issue.
I still do not know what the problem is. Can anyone help me out? This problem occured just after I flashed LuPuS kernel, and then returning back to stock kernel. Ever since then 3G doesn't work.
Hope I get a solution. Help is appreciated. Thanks!
Did you flash the correct baseband for the ROM? Each Android version works with a different baseband.

Never had problems with using various basebands on various ROMs. 64 worked fine on ICS, 77 worked fine on GB. No issues for me.

I used what comes in the .FTF itself. I even tried flashing with Sony's official flash tool for unlocked bootloaders. I'll try manually flashing basebands and switch them out to see whether that works.

Gotta check then.
Had you checked in what mode are you?
2G, 2G/3G Prefered, 3G only
Had you configured the APN Settings? In my phone it doesnt donwload anything from 3G/2G until i register the network.
Or perhaps you didnt do all the wipes and some remanent file is causing the problem.

Residual files seems to be the problem. I have the correct APNs and correct mode. I should try clearing with fastboot.

Flash a new kernel and do clean install, wipe everything and flash a ROM.

Wiping everything off and flashing a new kernel and again wiping and going back to stock ROM worked.

Personally, I would flash in this order:
- latest LOS 14.1
- firmware
- gapps
Then wipe cache and reboot.
I assume you're also using the latest twrp?

my problem was a little bit different but it might help you. my wife and i are using mi5s 4/128gb. and we bought them from same website. we couldnt be avle to connect the same wifi in our house. i tried many different custom rom or stock rom but it didn `t solve it. i guess the person who sell the devices , put the same mac adresses to both device. so i figured out the problem with changing the mac adress. Now our devices are connecting any wifi hotspot without a single problem. :good:

My modem files erased when I did root my phone. Modem files need to write again. This is only solution . I will try to write modem files. After that I let you know.
TWRP backup so important, this case. Modem and other files must be protect with back up.

My modem files crushed. This files wrote again and phone back normally.
Back up files need to be archived before flash rom.
I learned my lesson , you guys be careful
