[Q] Wildfire 'error scanning for networks' - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

FOr some reason this wildfire has no Netowkr connectivity. It'll connect to wifi alright i think, but it wont connect to my provider (giffgaff) Im sure the phone is unlocke,d because under VPN/APN it has the correct options for my sim, and lets me browse the internet oddly enough.
So I installed MiniCM9-3.0.5-20131021-UNOFFICIAL-buzz.zip before on to the Wildfire, hoping it would fix it, but it didnt. I can browse the internet, but i cant make calls, there is no signal bar, just a black triangle...
Any help?
(it is S-Off, but i dont know what else I am ment to provide)

No internet available via Mobile Network ?

Hey Y'all
I spent all day trying to figure out why I have lost my internet on my Desire.
I can browse using my wireless, but if I turn off WIFI, all I get is Webpage not available. (On any page I try)
I have been into the APNs to check the settings & they are all ok.
I am with Orange Uk & have an unlimited Internet package.
The little 3g arrows are flashing?
Also I have 70 meg Phone memory & I get a warning if try to intall a 1meg game, saying "Out of Space Program could not be viewed. Free up some space on your phone and try again".
Any help from the experts would be really appreciated.
Thanks

I had the same problem with the interent, turned the phone off then on, and internet started working again.
Ok further update.
My emails are working?
I just rang orange & they sent me the settings via text & told me to shut of my phone & remove the battery, then boot it up, & as expected, that did NOTHING!
So I have no idea why I can only browse using WIFI.
Mobile is enabled, I'm not in aeroplane mode, or anything daft like that.

What values do you get if you go:
settings/about phone/network
look at signal strength. might give you a clue.
i'm on orange uk and my desire can be tempremental. it's loads better outside of central london. perfect on wifi. if i'm in a pub in town trying to read the news, or on the bus home, sometimes i get next signal at all.
what i try, and this seems to work sometimes, is turning mobile on/off a few times, or even powering down/up.
ps. it's confusing when you make a statement and then put a question mark at the end (your emails are working? what does that mean - are you asking us, or telling us you're not sure, or what?)
I mentioned this in a different thread...
Do you switch off wifi correctly?
I found that when I am connected via wifi and then go out of range my mobile network can't connect to the internet.
I have to turn of wifi manually every time in order to have the mobile network working.
Usually switching to airplane mode and than back again solves this issue.
The important thing is to always switch from wifi to mobile network manually. It's quite annoying but it's not the end of the world.
Thanks for your replies.
I rang Orange again today, usual call centre.
It turned out in the end that I had lost my WAP settings.
The call centre talked me through setting up the WAP APN settings & the Internet came back.
Don't know how I lost them in the first place?

Problem using Portable Hotspot after latest OTA

Hi guys
First thing my desire is unbranded and unrooted.
Ever since applying the last OTA my portable hotspot has stopped working.... I connect to a data network no problem, but when I turn on portable hotspot, I loose the data connection. I can see it trying to get the connection back but it loops for around a minute and then gives up with no errors.
My wifi has been fine since the upgrade.
Has anyone else seen this or have any ideas how to fix it???
Many thanks
David
I'm not sure this is the answer to your problem, but hey maybe it is the answer so someone else's problem
A Wifi device is either a client or a server - not both at the same time.
If you tell the phone to be a Wifi server, and it was connected to a Wifi network then that connection ceases to exist.
Next it will broadcast its own Wifi network for other devices to use. Those devices (and your phone) can then browse the web, send mail etc. using your 2G/3G connection, and they can talk to one another using local ip addresses handed out by the phone.
I hope this cleared things up, if not for you then maybe for someone else
Yup - experiencing an issue whenever I select "Press to turn on".. doesn't seem to do much of anything (beyond the Processing dialogue).. and while I get the Icon in the Notification bar there is no hotspot available. Can't configure it either..
similar specs on the phone... unbranded / unrooted

[Q] Cant connect to mobile network but WIFI works fine?

Edit:Re-reading Im thinking the topic name might be a bit unclear, when i said mobile network i meant mobile internet.
Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could help. My wifi works fine but i cant connect to mobile internet at all.
I have had my phone for quite a while now but havnt really had any need to use the internet while im out and about and have relied on wifi so I cant be sure if my mobile internet actually ever worked or not but when i try to connect i get the messages: turning on..connected...connection failed or the connection just vanishes instantly.
A bit about my phone:
Running RCMixHD 2.0
S-off and rooted
current baseband:32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 but have tried the latest radio with no change.
Network: Orange UK
I have spoken to orange and have set the APN to their recommended settings.
At a loss as to what to try next? any help really appreciated
Paul
Tried a few more radios still with no success...really no idea what else to try here guys, any ideas?
It could be the rom. I've it before where I've had the same radio and tried different roms. Some work, some don't. You could just reflash the rom you have without wiping anything.
I rung Orange when I lost my actual network signal and I had to ring them about 10 times just for someone to say that one of the masts was down in my city. Proper retards they are.
Indeed, orange arnt known for their brilliant customer service. I think 1 in 10 of the staff you speak to actually have a clue.
Anyways thanks for the reply, it was indeed the rom...thought it might have been but wanted to exhaust every other option first. All fixed nowthough, thanks again.

Error- "Data connection not avaiable for voice calls"

Hey folks,
today I got a weird problem on my Z2. After i turned off airplane mode i wasnt able to recieve calls and SMS even tough datas connection worked fine and still does, when trying to call i get this message as in the title "data connection not avaible for voice calls". I'm pretty sure i didn't touch anything related to that lately so i tried with another SIM (same carrier) and i get the same problem. I'm unable to try on another device though but i think it's related to the phone or at least related to the carrier.
If anyone has experienced this already or has an idea about how to fix this please let me know!
Cheers

Do you have Advanced Calling turned on? As I understand it, that requires both a voice connection and data connection. Also, have you tried driving far enough that you would be connected to a different cell tower? It could be an issue of hardware failure at your local cell tower.

Hi, I can't actually find Advanced Calling in settings. Do you know where it is?

On the last couple of versions of Android, it has been in the upper part of the settings page, where the various wireless settings are grouped. If you don't see it, and you have a "more settings" or "..." entry at the bottom of the wireless settings, click on that.
