[Technology]

What I'm trying to confirmed is whether you have bricked you wifi drivers and from what you are describing tells me indeed you have bricked your wifi, but lets make sure. Ok, what I need you to do is reinstall another ROM on your device and look in the Comm Manager Area for the WLAN Settings and click "WIFI" and tell me what you see! Don't panic the wifi fix is very easy........!

[RamenBooko]

So, what is the wifi fix? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I do have wifi repair software by my main man jockyw2001, that works like a charm............!

[RamenBooko]

I'm on WM6.1. So what exactly are you looking for? Once I click Wi-fi Settings, I am just showing my avail networks.

Is that all you wanted to know?

I know that it works, but as soon as it connects the Wi-fi option is removed from the phone.

Thanks in advance.

[Slaxe]

I have tried all the step, but i still cant get my wifi work... i am so lost since i got it not long ago. any steps care to enlighten?

[naars90]

Flashed my rom to 1.33 a few weeks ago and somehow after that I'm unable to browse the internet on wifi...my phone can see and connect to networks but my browser always says "unable to conenct to internet...please check your browser settings" or something like that...anyway bottom line is...I can't browse if I'm on a wifi connection but I have no problem if I'm on EDGE....I also have the WMWifirouter installed...would that have anything to do with it?

[lovemy65stang]

I'm in the same boat as you! I'm using Ricky's latest ROM (v13), except I don't have an internet plan with t-mobile. If I can't get Wifi browsing soon, i'm going to have to go back to windows 6.0 :confused: That would suck b.c. I really love Ricky's 6.1!!! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

[naars90]

What gets to me is that my wifi used to work...and then I noticed that when I try to view youtube videos using TCPMP with the flash bundle I would got a "unable connect to URL" or something like that...wasn't a problem before...

[rickwyatt]

try upgrading your radio

[naars90]

would also like to flash the newest ROM's but kinda hesitant to do so...not really all that confident that I'm not gonna brick my phone...think I just got lucky the first time...'sides...I don't wanna have to lose my activation codes for opera mobile...which happened the first time and I had to contact opera for a new code...

[naars90]

err....noob here....upgrading radio...ist that the same as flashing a new ROM?

[lovemy65stang]

I thought your v13 rom had the newest radio too? Is there a cab somewhere? What should I be looking for?

[galacius29]

have the same problem.... Upgraded to HTC 1.33 now my explorer doesn't work even though my google maps and all other wifi related things work..

sucks, if there isn't a solution i'm going to have to go back to wm6.0 which i don't want to do...

[littleclown]

Dudes, I have a problem.
I just buy a brand new D-link Wi-Fi Router and installed it in my home.
But when I try to connet to wireless thats happen:
First click to some link: Super connection no problem
Second click: Little slow connection but no problem
3th click: Very very slow connection
4th click: no connection (but Wi-Fi is still connected with full connection status).

When I dissconect and connect again everything goes to start again - fast connection, slower, slower, no connection.
What happen?

I am sure I installed the Wi-Fi correctly, and this model is very very popular.
I have no chanse to check with other wi-fi devices.

If there any third party programs to connect with wi-fi for smartphones I will try it. If there are any connection setting for router or for phone i will try it.
Thank you.

[nutpants]

i have the same problem i am trying rickys vannila "Ive Remade Kavana 080408 Now basic Rom links ready" to see if that solves my problem.
sometimes my 620 connect other times it says it connects and looks connected but i cant surf the web or connect with a ftp i get the same error of something like " cannot find internet connecting check your setting and try again"

nut

[NRGZ28]

Try downgrading your router to 802.11b temporarily and see what happens. Also, try changing the channel. If nothing works, get a different router (if you want it to work with your phone). :) I had a Linksys WRT54G and it wouldnt work with any of my HTC phones (HTC Tytn or my Excalibur). I bought a DLink-625 and it works....

[nutpants]

i am having a similar problem and my router worked fine untill i updated to 6.1

now i am having LOTS of problems.

i connect an di an surf the first page and after that it just stalls out and i get noting i disconnect and its does the same thing and this is with a fresh rom install on my 621

nutz

maybe it time to go back to 6

radio 4.1.13.51_03.07.90
ril 2.002

[littleclown]

Dudes I make hardware reset to my Router and set everything again, and now works. Little slowly maybe.

The model of the router is D-Link DI-524 old good model with no change TTL function. I see there are settings about performance.
What should I change to boost the speed?

[littleclown]

Im not happy. Click One is perfect. Click two is perfect too, But when i make click three the connection downs to 7-10kb,sec

I don't find 802.11b option. I have 802.11g and mixed mode. Can I do something with the phone? Some fine tune software?

[littleclown]

Hello again. I read that I need to set registry to working with G router, but where in the registry exactly?

[nutpants]

try changing the wifi to best preformance.. after trying a bunch of stuff and this was one of them i got a LOT better connecting after i did that.

hope my wifi is not dying..

God bless you!
This works!
Maybe the shitty/buggy windows setting for power saving makes some conflict with this router.
thanks again!

My WRT54G works fine with my phone, my brother's phone, and the iPhone. The router is set to G mode (instead of 802.11b)

[shady77]

how do i make sure that my htc only connects to internet through wifi? will turning gprs off affect phone use? thanks in advance

[shady77]

hi all, is it possible to make my htc only connect to webbernet via wifi. i dont want no data charges! if i turn gprs off, will it affect phone use? thanks in advance.

[NRGZ28]

Turning GPRS off doesnt affect anything...

[SirKeats]

if you delete all of your gprs profiles there won't be any way for the phoen to connect to gprs since it won't now what settings/info to use in order to do so.

i use wifi only in this way and haven't ever had a problem.

[ccampton]

i believe you can just go to gprs settings and change what provider it connects to or just not select one at all

As far as I know, I've had no problems with Wi-Fi after flashing to 080408. Many others have though. Try to do a search in the threads for it. There have been NUMEROUS discussions on the subject.

I flashed v21 (before v17) and have problem of connecting to wifi then when i leave comm manager disconnects. (sometime it works but most of the time it doesnt. could be my router but was working before with tmo, rogers, kavana's. Other than that this ROM is the best (Like I said could be other problems I will try at public Wifi and see

[gottifour]

Is there a way to prevent this?

Thanks for any help.....d

[satru]

If you have usb and activesync runing the wifi go off automatic.

good luck

[Bupahs]

It depends on what ROM you are running but the basics. Go into your WiFi settings, find Power Mode and uncheck the box for "Auto Turn off wlan if no wlan or user activities after LCD Off"

[gottifour]

Thanks for the quick reply...I'm using rickys rom v 12 I think..When I go into my comm manager and go into wifi settings I dont have a power mode. My comm manager looks different than my old ones. Is that why there is no power mode? Thanks again..d

[Striker317]

You won't see it going through that way

Goto Settings, Connections, More, WLAN and you'll see it there.

[gottifour]

Im sorry for this thread...It seems that it is a setting in this other program that I just started using.WMWifiRouter. It creates a wireless access point and I use it with my internet sharing to tether my phone to my linux ubuntu laptop. Again..Sorry for the unnecessary thread. At least maybe someone will find it useful by using the program I mentioned. It seems to be a cool program and I couldnt get my dash to sync with ubuntu for nothing before this...d

[gottifour]

Thanks..I now see it...The box is indeed unchecked.....d

[indiekiduk]

Yeh HTC made it harder to find in the wm6.1 ROM. Hopefully Microsoft will recognise this feature HTC have been including for a while and add to the WM wireless settings form.

[chinito74]

my wifi works fine when i get wep security but when i get wpa-psk or wpa2-psk it just doesnt connect

[carltmac]

I have a very cheap Trendnet 802.11 or whatever the number is router. Do you guy's think that is the reason for poor signal and sometimes loosing connection?

Thank you in advance for your time.

[outerdepth]

Yes, I do. Buy a better router. Even the nicer ones are pretty cheap these days.

[dakiro]

you could try a tp-link, they are rock-solid and not too expensive, no matter what you do - no d-link, or at least no cheap d-link

[carltmac]

are there and router's you guy's reccomend that work especially good with the Dash?

[gab0]

i do have a dlink dir-300 and it works pretty good with the dash. i have set wep protection to my network and i have no problems at all with it.

[satru]

I am using netgear wpn824 v2 and used wgt624 v3 without any problem, both with wep actived, i buyed in tigerdirect.com

connect to 54 mb, max for this router and can see video online from youtube etc.

dash-wm6.1

[ronald11]

does any one know how to give the dash static ip ? address

[skaroger867]

why do you want the dash to have a static ip?

[ronald11]

why do you want the dash to have a static ip?

Cuz i use static ip addres here at work with wpa2 and wep at home with static ip addres not dhcp, some times wireless zero services fails to connect when use dhcp in xp.

That is why we use static ip address

//////////\\\\\\\\

but i found a way thanks

[littleclown]

If you have problems with router, maybe you have settings problems - play with your router fine tune settings, about connection, but after all in your dash: Start-->Settings-->Connections-->WLAN Settings-->Power Mode and set "Best performance". Try with this settings. I have the same problem and this resolve it!

good luck.

[sunycheeba416]

I keep my wifi on 24/7. When I reboot my phone I have to manually go in an turn on the wifi- it already knows what my preferred network is and just connects. So all I really need is a way to turn it on after reboot. Is there a way to do this, maybe even thru the registry?

[NRGZ28]

This might be of interest...

http://ae.inc.ru/aewft.php

[SirKeats]

it doesn't stay on? i could have sworn that if it was on when the phone turned off... it would turn on when the phone turned back on.

[NRGZ28]

Mine behaves the same way... But if he says it doesnt, maybe his doesnt.. who knows! lol

[gixxum]

if i reboot my phone with the wifi connected, i have to reconnect the wifi upon boot. was that way with the stock tmobile 6 rom, htc 6 rom and every 6.1 rom i have ever tried

[Bupahs]

Here ya go. WiFi always on after reboot:

(abbreviated as HKLM)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms

In that folder, there will be a D-word value registry key, called "HTCPreloadWifi". You will need to edit this value, or if it is not there you will need to create it. Set it to 1 to preload WiFi on reboot or 0 to disable preload on WiFi on reboot

You will need to do a softreset after the above reg edit.

Another "solution" is to put a shortcut in your startup folder to WiFiInit.

[sunycheeba416]

Thanks Bupahs that was it!! Only thing is that HTCPreloadWifi was already set to 1.. it was the key above it called HTCResumeWifiAfterReset that did it.

[outerdepth]

Gotta change that reg entry fo sho!

Works like a charm!

Thanks Bupahs that was it!! Only thing is that HTCPreloadWifi was already set to 1.. it was the key above it called HTCResumeWifiAfterReset that did it.

[louie101086]

before when i had windows 6 i had no data plan and could not even use my wifi but when i updated my dash to 6.1 wifi works and i am now able to browse internet but i wanted to know if i will get charged for this

[futureshock]

this depends on wich wifi access point you are!!!

[louie101086]

i am using my own wireless access point but i was scared because before they told me that in order to use wifi i needed a data plan

[lukybandit]

Yes, It's free because you are using your own "access point". Data (GPRS) and Wi-Fi are completely different and for GPRS you pay through your provider for an "always on" connection wherever you are whereas if you use your own WiFi, your fine but there are some hot spots (Wi-Fi) you need to pay for.

Hope that helps.

[indiekiduk]

i am using my own wireless access point but i was scared because before they told me that in order to use wifi i needed a data plan

They must have assumed you didn't have your own wifi access point at home for some reason. The T-Mobile etc. Wifi access points in airports and hotels do need a data plan which is what they meant, but it can be a one off payment aswell, only business users who are in airports daily would pay monthly for wifi hotspot access. However, if you had a GPRS data plan you would unlikely ever go and find a wifi hotspot. The main use of them is people who have laptops which the majority of only have WiFi cards internally, not GPRS. When the next generation of laptops all of 3G cards internally and the 3G iphone comes out, we will likely see very cheap unlimited 3G data plans and I think that will spark the decline of WiFi hotspots ran by cellular operators.

[lubs]

When using Wifi and surfing with Opera Mini, incoming calls seem to make my phone freeze shortly and then turn off. I'm running Kavana's 0408 rom. Anyone else experience this?

[satru]

do you have the :eek: phone overclocked?

[jdoggraz]

Ummm well see if upgrading to the rom below helps out. I have the latest 6.1 of Rickys rom which is version 23... try that and see if it will work...

My WIFI on Kavana v23 WM6.1 works fine but I have noticed that frequently the Comm Manager will not load and I have to reboot or access the WIFI or connection settings another way.

Also settings in Active Sync can be configured to remove the WIFI option from Comm Manager if you are connected.

2 cents!

thanks for the help guys ..i tried both of u guys help but same thing...its liek what he said above.... the wifi works its just that most times the drivers dotn load on startup...even tho the wifi.int is in the start-up folder..and you need to keep rebooting (its like ur forcing it to load)...but other times it loads perfectly..it just not consistant...


...but thanks anyways ...ill search around the net some more...:(

if u see a "lock" icon/symbol on the 3 internet that shows up then it means that the wifi acess is not open but is secured by a pass...the only way to acess it is to ask them wat is the pass loolo

hi, i just bought a t-mobile branded (mda mail) htc s620

i have added rikkys rom 14 and i have no option anywhere for wlan.

i have another htc s620 which is with the BT broadband package, and that wlan/wifi options are present, although the wireless doesnt work for more than 30 seconds. - thats another story.

but on this t-mobile unit, the comm manager only lists bluetooth and phone.

its as if there is a faulty or missing wifi device - or did certain models not have the wifi?

i have reset and reset and reloaded etc, same thing always. do i need to find a driver cab for it possibly, if so where would i search, as google yields nothing.

thanks for any pointers. :)

ps. its unlocked, but i dont have a working sim in it during all of this, could that be the issue?

[Mikey]

i have added rikkys rom 14 and i have no option anywhere for wlan.

did you check in settings -> connections -> more

[Quaddy]

hi,

indeed i did :(

thats where i configure my other 'working' one with ssids and settings etc

but its knowhere on this t-mobile one. - its has all the same options there, GPRS PC TO usb etc but no wi-fi or wlan equivalent.

[Mikey]

i know it has it cause i went thru all his updates and he made them.
Although i finally decided on his Vanilla Version. :)
Stripped of most of the programs, i dont use or need.
Maybe it was a bad flash. might be a hassle but you MIGHT have to reflash.

[Quaddy]

yeah no worries, a reflash is not a problem at all, as i said, i have already done that (my bad, i said reloaded = reflashed)

i will try a different rom altogether though to see if that helps.

tah!

[mar11974]

hi, i just bought a t-mobile branded (mda mail) htc s620

MDA MAIL is not the S620, it is the S621 and does not have WiFi.

[Quaddy]

:eek:

aaaahhh ok - i c

tut tut - the ebay seller was a bit naughty, he stated it was s620.

ok, i have got an s621.

thanks for that golden nugget of info. seriously. that has stopped me trying to make it have wifi :p (would have been hard)

you live n learn!

[Empel1960]

MMMmmm Hi, I'm from Mexico and I got an HTC S621 and it has wi-fi, I don't know if that special version has no wifi.....:rolleyes:

[indiekiduk]

I don't think it matters if it is 620 or 621. The point is it is the T-Mobile branded model and they decided to remove the WiFi chip from it. The reason is to force you to pay for cellular data. Orange do the same thing with some devices in the UK.

[outerdepth]

Hey wassup everybody.

I have 2 questions.

1) When I have my wifi turned on it is constantly making a beep. I have deduced that it it is turning itself on and off when my screen goes black. Every time I press a button and my screen becomes active it accesses the wifi and connects to it, implying to me that it disconnects temporarily when my screen is inactive. That sucks to begin with, if anyone know how to keep this from disconnecting if it is TRULY disconnecting, pleas tell me how. Here's my question: What registry key do I need to kill or disable in order to kill this beeping sound when it disconnects or connects. Maybe it's a finding networks beep. I don't know, but I definitely want to kill this beep for wifi.

2) I am using SmartToolkit. I want to assign a hotkey to something. I know how to assign the key. My problem is say I assign the "alt" key to a program, whenever I use the "alt" key, instead of it functioning, it opens the program assigned to it. How can I remedy my situation?

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help.:cool:

[Willmaster]

can someone make Pics of the Inside of an S620 with wlan?

then i can Compare with my MDA Mail which Part is missing

[lukybandit]

Hey Outerdepth,

1) I get the same beep, so far I haven't come across how to get rid of the beep but if i do, i'll let you know and yeah, i find it pretty annoying and i dont think my wi-fi disconnects but i'll look into that.

2) I just assigned a key and it works fine on mine. Let me try the IE shortcut and see if it works.

EDIT: Ok, I tried the IE Shortcut, Celetasks open and the program i assigned to it opens. Hmm, Sorry I know this isn't of much help. If i bump into something, I'll let u know. Gluck

[outerdepth]

In reference to your 2nd answer:

I can make the hotkey open the program, what I AM SAYING is that when I open notepad or anything that requires I use the alt key, it opens my program assigned to that hot key, instead of the "alt" function working like it is supposed to. I only want the hot key to function when my screen is on the homescreen, and on the homescreen only.

Thanks in advance.:D

Yeah, I ran into the same problem. I used the delete key and now it behaves like a hot key in all situations. no problem but sorry I couldn't help.

Not to jack your thread or anything but On a different note, do you see in technology's thread? he has two screens, one that's crappy quality, another outstanding quality? Any idea how he did that? Codecs, I know - do you know which ones? I don't get his documentation, there's so many players and so many links, it doesn't make sense to me. I tried one and it works but crappy quality. Thanks in advance.

[outerdepth]

I had the same problem. I ended up with the correct one, though.

I'll check it out and see what I have, but if I am correct, just install the FlashVideo.cab and his technology player.cab and all of the codecs you need should be there. Mine works fine. I will check into this further and ask Tech what's up with this.

Also, I have tried my Tzones key and it opens up the Celetask instead. If someone know where I can edit the Tzones key to something else, that would be fine too. Actually that's what I would prefer.

:D:cool::D

[showaco]

For your sound settings, check HKCU\Control Panel\Sound\. There's lots of settings for different system sounds, of course I'm on a blackjack but I think it would probably still be same location. I couldn't tell you about which is wi-fi because I don't have any but I do have 3g.:D

[NRGZ28]

3G sucks anyway !!!! ( saying that as i turn green with envy) lol as far as the hotkeys, they are global in smarttoolkit!

[outerdepth]

Thanks for the heads up. I was unaware that these were global. Guess, I should have looked around at some documentation.:rolleyes:

Wish, I knew that earlier, and I wouldn't have spent all that time looking for a solution. Guess, I'll try to figure out something else. Maybe, I can figure out how to reroute the TZones key on my Dash.:D

For the beeping issue with the WIFI, I had this as well, and its easily fixed. Just go to WIFI Settings, and then to power mode, and there you can check off not to turn off wifi when it goes into powersaving mode. Good luck

can someone make Pics of the Inside of an S620 with wlan?

then i can Compare with my MDA Mail which Part is missing

This should have everything you need.

[outerdepth]

I've searched all over my Dash for what you are talking about, but I cannot find it. When I go to my wi-fi settings, there is no power mode choice. Maybe you're running a different ROM than me.

If you have any more ideas, please let me know.:cool:

Hey outerdepth,

Go to Settings > Connections > WLAN Settings > Power Mode >

Auto

Best Battery

I think you leave it to Auto but Uncheck Auto turn off WLAN...

Gluck !

[tlogix]

MDA MAIL is not the S620, it is the S621 and does not have WiFi.
I guess it's depend on the operators because I have a Rogers S621 with Wifi enabled.

[DMC78]

I have mine set to "auto" and then the box is checked, and my time setting is 5 minutes. I havn't had an issue with the connection dropping.

In windows mobile 6.1 I had to go further into that registry directory you listed, into the "params" folder. In there there was a HTCResumeWIFIafterreboot (or something to that effect) and it worked to get wifi loaded as soon as i turn on the device. That's all I changed.

[GJSmith3rd]

There are pictures of the inside in the Service Manual. Link removed - no longer valid There may be a link in the Wiki too, i'm not sure.

Yeah the British version of the HTC S620 has wifi disabled on it, the NAM version has wifi.

Hello, long time lurker, first time poster.

I searched for this and I cannot find the answer, so I will ask if you do not mind. :)

I have now received the unlock code for my phone from T-mobile, no clue how to use it yet, :D but I do know that even though I no longer have service with them the WIFI still works great with my home internet WIFI connection. I have no carrier service whatsoever on this phone, it still has the T-Mobile original SIM card inside.

The mobile version of SKYPE works on my phone for messaging purposes through the WIFI connection, and SKYPE actually sells WIFI mobile phones now, so the next thing I am going to try is to use skype credits to try to make a call. If that does not work, I will try GIZMO? If it is an OS problem and neither work, does anyone have any modification suggestions to make it work?

Also, I have seen from many of the instructional posts here that a new SIM card has to be installed to "unlock" the device with the unlock code, which I have? What I want to do is get rid of all of the T-Mobile branding screens and menus and be able to install the software of my choosing. :confused:

[gixxum]

from what i understand, the dash cant be used as a voip phone. someone please correct me if im wrong...i also think i read you cant even use it as a voip phone using tmobiles hotspot@home service.

as for the sim. just throw in a friends/families sim thats on a different network and it will ask you for that code.

the only way to get rid of all the tmobile branding is to switch to a non tmobile rom..htc,rogers, kavana, rickwyatt etc... sim unlocking the phone will not get rid of all the tmobile branding. all sim unlock does is let you use that phone on networks other than tmobile

[Bupahs]

This might help you out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950

[gabby]

Now I understand why I wasn't finding anything here on the forums on this, I was not searching for VOIP :o I was searching for dash wifi phone.

I guess voip is the same as skype? I love the way this phone has no carrier service but I can do anything I want with the wifi on it, like surf the net, message in skype, etc. right now, everything except make calls.

So the key now is to find a sim card, an HTC one? There are no other carriers in my area except for verizon and they do not accomodate the dash phone. Finding a new card to put in should be easy enough.

I have been reading the link on voip and the ROM changes, thank you very much.

Well Once Again Ricky's Rom LOL!... Upgraded to his rom and my wifi connection is slow as hell. my signal is strong but when i go browseing its slow as hell any ideas? or anyone having the same issue?:cool:

one minor annoyance is that i have to enable wifi manually via the comm manager after a restart or shutdown.

shouldnt it auto start, its like it doesnt remember from the previous session it was enabled and working fine! :confused:

can i put a shortcut in the startup folder or similar?

thanks for any info.

Yes that is the case with the new roms, however, I believe that if you edit some registry keys you can enable it everytime you turn on your phone. I will look into this for you and get back to you asap okay.

wow - that would be great if you can find any info on this regedit.:)

thanks very much.

p.s its rikkys rom version 14. so its not that new ?

I've been looking all over for an app that lets you print docs, appts, notes, tasks, etc. JetCet and PrintBoy don't work for smart phones, just pocket pc's. I tried ActivePrint.net, but that requires you to install software on a desktop computer, then your phone connects to the computer via wifi to send the print jobs.. So the computer has to be on for the whole printing from the smart phone works. Does anyone know of one that works via wifi without the need for a computer? At this point I don't care if I have to pay for it.

[NRGZ28]

I doubt it. For that to work you'd have to find some software with builtin generic printer drivers that can be installed on the phone itself! Can't say I ever came across that yet... And I've been around...:)

Try to update to the link I have posted below its the new 6.1 and see what happenes once you update. Let me know if it fixes the problem?

[outerdepth]

You might also want to try this:

Go into your wifi settings, and make sure your you sign into your wifi signal with the correct user id and password. These must be set, they don't just automatically find them if there are in fact passwords.

Hope this helps.:cool:

I apologize if this has been answered in this forum earlier. I searched and could not find the answer.

Here is my question. Everytime I reboot the phone, I have to manually switch the WiFi on. Is there something that I can do to make the default state on. That is, the WiFi, by default, switches on when the device is powered up--- exactly like the phone is on by default. Can this be done. Thanks in advance.

You could do a script (using Mortscript) which swtiches on wifi everytime you reboot your phone.....

Try to ask your question here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289197&highlight=mortscript+examples)....

Hi,

Just edit your registry as follows

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\HTCResumeWi FiAfterReset =1

If wifi is on before reboot it will activate when it turns on.....:)

Hi,

how I can flash *.nbh files on dash ?

what sofware I need to use fo this?

thank you!

[xarejayx]

What's up guys?

So today, I was messing around with my phone as usual, and was using the program "Startup Manager" and in the Windows\Startup\ folder there were 2 files.

btdwake.lnk
wifiint.lnk (not sure the exact file name)

anyway, i deleted the wifiint.lnk and rebooted, now i'am unable to turn wifi back on using Comm Manager.


What I need:

If someone can please post the wifiint.lnk found under Windows\Startup as an attachment to this post so i can try to upload it back to my phone and see if wifi will turn on now.


If I go to Comm Manager -> settings -> WLAN Settings -> Connection Status

I see:

Status: Driver is not loaded

So I'am guessing, the file that I deleted, handled the loading of the wifi driver.

[Bupahs]

Creat a new lnk file yourself.

1. Open Text editor on your computer
2. Type in the following information exactly as you see it here

38#"\Windows\WiFiInit.exe"

4. save the newly created file as WiFiInit.lnk and place it on your device in the folder \Windows\StartUp

[xarejayx]

Thank's Bupahs - Wifi is now working again :)

Does the Dash charge when the light is green ? I thought amber meant that it was charging and then it goes green when its 100% ?? I just bought a new battery actually and it stayed amber for about 10 minutes, then went green. Way too fast I suspected, because my original battery did this when it died whenever I used it. Could someone elaborate ?? Thanks

[jdoggraz]

Well it matters how charged the battery was when you plugged it in, if it was like at 90 percent or higher then yah it could happen in a matter of 10 minutes.

Yeah the British version of the HTC S620 has wifi disabled on it, the NAM version has wifi.

I have the O2 branded dash. it says "xda" on the top right corner. I also cannot find any sign of wifi. under WLAN settings it says driver is not loaded. and in comm manager is only has Bluetooth and phone.

Why do you turn the feature off?
in Settings->Power mode.....uncheck the box or set the time period for the "beep" to a longer time.

turning the wifi power save off will not solve the problem.

wifi will stay on unnecessarily and then you drain the battery.
