so i just updated to the latest RUU on htc site running bone stock. when i insert my SIM card and setup my APN settings, my phone looses the ability to connect and see 5GHz wifi signals. the only way to restore it is to do a factory reset or another ruu. anyone know anything about this? it seems as if anything that changes the radio settings kills 5ghz wifi compatibility.
whats strange is that if i connect to my wifi first (5GHz network) then add my APN, then insert my SIM card, it works perfectly until phone is either rebooted or i turn off wifi then turn it back on. Then it wont connect or see the 5ghz networks.
Any ideas?

Just rooted my Desire using instructions from Modaco, but have the following issue :
I have no data connection. No matter what I try it always tells me 'unable to connect, you need a network connection in order to..... etc. Wifi is off at present (not one around at work) and all the settings are to Vodafone as they should be. Can make/receive calls without issue. It's a fully unlocked phone so no idea why it's suddenly not able to connect data wise. This is the case whether I try to setup Exchange, browse the web or open Facebook etc.
Any ideas please anyone? I've checked all settings, rebooted etc but to no avail.
Someone, somewhere said that in some cases (don't remember which) APNs presets are missing after rooting. Check your APN setting.
1. Make sure your APN settings are 100 correct.
2. Go to Menu--Settings-->Wireless and networks-->Mobile Networks-->Network Mode--Switch to GPRS and then Back to Auto
Worked for me.

GOod call, it was the APN settings. Added one as below and all connected straight away :
Name : Vodafone
APN : Internet
Username : web
Password : web

Are you using a Branded or UnBranded Desire??
see this thread for more info

But at a guess you might need a GoldCard and then Flash it with a new ROM/Radio settings
Hi,
Since a couple of days my Desire won't register on the GSM network. The sim is working fine if I put it in another phone, so that's not an issue.
The message I get when trying to manually choose my network is "Your simcard does not allow a connection to this network"?!
After some browsing on the web it seems that this happens sometimes but I cannot find a way to get it resolved. One of the tricks should be to manually toggle the network mode to GSM only or WCDMA only. The strange thing is that when I try that the phone instantly swithes back to GSM/WCDMA auto. To manually change network mode is not possible. Is this an indicator that something is wrong?
I have tried to re-flash the rom, installing the latest radio, toggeling flight mode on/off, etc.
What else can I do get it resolved?
Currently running my rooted Desire with:
LeeDroid 3.0.7
Radio 5.17.05.23
Appreciate the support!
Thx!

I think you should try the offical RUU .. than you can make out if it is a hardware problem or software.. make sure to prepare all thing while your phone is in working state, before flashing offical RUU make sure u have usb debbuging enabled, adb driver working. and a goldcard..
Today I updated my ROM from LeeDroid v2.5 to v3.0.8.2. I wiped my phone first. After this I rebooted, then rebooted again into recovery and installed the recommended radio (32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08). Then I restored my apps+dat with Titanium back up and rebooted again.
It soon became apparent that whilst mobile internet was working fine, WIFI wasn't. While my phone will connect to the router it won't connect to the internet. If I enter the local IP of my router I can browse the settings fine. I tried "forgetting" the network and re-entering security code but this still didn't work.
I restored my v2.5 nandroid backup and the internet worked fine, the radio is still 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08.
So I did a fresh install of the v3.0.8.2 ROM and tried connecting to WIFI again and again the same problem.
So my question is, is this an inherent problem with the ROM, and if so why does no one else seem to have this problem, or is it a setting issue?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Also I tried changing the WIFI channel as suggested in another WIFI thread, and this didn't change anything. Except the WIFI channel obviously.
And I tried a static IP address and that didn't work either.

You try turning off router and putting back on again? I sometime's get that in my network.
Yes I tried turning my router off for a couple of minutes then switching it back on. Didn't change anything.

Did you sort it?
I think you need to wait before the router give your router assign an ip for your phone, btw, some router donot fit all phone model
Yes thanks I managed to sort it today by following this thread
Apparently the fault is inherent to Android 2.3.3 and seems to present itself mainly with Thompson routers. It was a static IP I needed, I'd not entered the details properly the first time.
Thanks for the replies!

Thats good
My phone started turning on and off its 3g connection. Wifi works solid.
I'm on a good signal area. It's not like the 3g is on and I can't connect in anything.
The problem is that the phone turns on and off. It doesnt fix the 3g connection.
Also, Checkin service it's draining the battery a lot.
Looks like a software problem with Google Play Services and its Connection checking service.
Anybody have seen this problem?
thanks in advance.
Starting to worry right now. Did a factory reset on a flashed V10j KDZ and it didn't change.
TWRPed a 20A Lollipop rooted ZIP and it didn't change. Right now I'm trying to go back stock using LG PC Suite.
I can't understand why this can be a hardware problem because 3G actually works but it keeps constantly getting on/off in ~10 seconds intervals.
Looks like a bad system file that is messing with it.
EDIT: Also, the phone can't search for mobile networks anymore. I just tell it to do a manual search and it can't find anything.
What would this be? Modem file broke? WTH.

I have random disconnects/drops too, Although my 3G/LTE icon never actually goes away, just the signal.
Personally I would suspect your modem as #1 suspect.
Factory reset rarely fixes much, I would try re-flashing the phone.
If KDZ flash doesn't fix it maybe try a tot & dll flash using LG Flash Tools with modified megalock.
It definitely looks like a modem issue BUT it can be a your os. I had issues where my modem wouldn't flash from a stock flash on my S4, But manually flashing my modem would SOMETIMES work, I would have to flash the modem a few times usually before it would actually flash.
I had problems before but it was caused by network. Did you tried with different SIM card from other network?
I have the same problem and couldn´t fix yet... Didn´t try to use another SIM card to check if is a network trouble, but it´s driving me crazy to be without connection and a huge battery draining...
Any other ideas?

Just try with other network SIM. I had same problem long time back with Nokia n96, Motorola defy and some other phones. Some of time it helped to set phone only to use 2g network. That was happening the most of time when i used VIP network in Serbia.
Setting only 2g signal helped sometimes but after changing SIM card, problem was solved.
This problem happen to me without reason and after some time i tried same network again, there was no problems.
Probably a different SIM will correct the problem, because after a lot of trial and error changes I realized that the current Network APN (you can reach going on Mobile Networks inside Connections and Networks [translation] in the Settings) was faulty. I deleted the APNs and made a restore. (Delete and Restore are the only options inside Network APNs).
I imagine that changing SIM cards from another carrier will reconfigure the APNs and probably fix the problem.
I´ve tried a different SIM card and didn´t found any troubles, but when I put mine, the problem come back again... So it´s a problem with my carrier. I´ve deleted the APN settings, restart, restore, restart again and didn´t solve. I´ll call them to check if they are experiencing any network issues.
Hi, I am on Stock 4.4.3, unrooted,
I have been using it for some days after flashing factory image,, working fine, I moved from One Country to another, and its not showing me any available wifi network, even I saved one wifi network manually but still its not connecting to it,
any ideas what could be the problem? or how it could be restored, I am thinking of a factory reset again, but just curious what happened here, and what if it repeats even after factory reset,
Check in the advanced wifi settings the frequency band. Is it on automatic?
