I am trying connecting to my home wireless network. It finds the network but unable to connect to it. Any help please? Has anyone managed to get it connected to any Wifi? I ahve already set the power management to "best performace...no succes.......
(My laptop and O2 stealth does get connected to the same network and it an open wifi connection)...........PLZ Help.....

There is no wifi problem on the Diamond. it works fine for on every ROM I have used.
It sounds like you haven't set the access key in your Diamond.

Would be kind enough to elaborate......Mine is open WIFI router, there is no need for any pass keys......my other phone O2 stealth perfectly connects while HTC diamond doesn't.........
Please do have a problem and that the reason there are so many view on this thread in just 30 minutes....
thanking you in advance for your help........

i've never known any problems, have u flashed a cooked ROM or changed the Radio?
if so, i would try going back to stock and see if it works then, if not, send it back as faulty.

I'm not aware of any 'known issue' with the WiFi on the Diamond either, certainly mine and my girlfriend's both work fine in this respect. If you've never successfully connected to any wireless network then you've got a hardware issue; send your phone back to be repaired and stop wasting time looking for a software solution would be my advice.

wifi,,,
Glad that a lot of users doesn't had problem with the wifi, but it's an iminent malfunction, and looks to be a hardware problems...
I had change my rom and radios a lot, and the issues are the same:
Opened the comm manager or the settings-connection-wifi, turn on the wifi, and it's turn off again...
In my case, often worked properly after soft reset, and i often connect with 3g or gprs, but...it's a suck!!!

Step by step......connecting to wifi....

Would you please step by step elaborate ....connecting to an open wifi network......will be really greatful........

if your diamond is not connecting to your router there is some posibilities. Are you at home or work, at work on the AP you can have security setings and MAC filtering. At home if you have not implement security and mac filtering you can be to far of your router, You must be between -60 and -80 Db max and at -80 it is easyer with a MIMO router, etc...

Got the same problem as you
this is how i fixed mine.
1) I download a radio rom thing and install it
2) restart the device and the wifi is working perfectly.
No problems at all!

Got the same problem as you
I download a radio rom and install it but still turn off again

[Q] No Wi-Fi

Bought my Galaxy yesterday and it works fine but on one point. Yesterday I was able to find the home network of my friend in his house. I could connect to the internet with that as well as through 3g. But later at my place it does not work with any home network. When I try Settings, Wireless and network, Wi-Fi settings and Wi-Fi, the phone turns on Wi-Fi and scans for some seconds and the leaves a message that says "Unable to scan networks".
Maybe I have switched on or off something accidentally as I am a new user on this phone? Anyone for help?

turn off the phone
then turn it back on
in another words, reboot your phone, seems like it got stuck in some WiFi bug

It does not seem to help. I even took out the battery. Still unable to to scan

you can try this
*2767*3855# WARNING! FACTORY DATA WIPE AND RESET as soon as you enter the last # use it only if you want to clean wipe your phone

I really don't want that as long as I also cannot backup the video in it. Have not got the Kies program to recognize the phone yet.
Maybe there is another way to set the scan possibility?

you don't need kies
see the last secret code?

It defaults to User space. I do not yet have any extra Micro SD card. Is it that what means with User space?

Tried that last command and do have at least one file of each in the folders, but the phone answers for each of them that the files are not ready? What else is there to be done?

Had same problem, tried factory reset... didn't solve it. any ideas? it can't get an ip address and it used to work

probably the next best thing is to use Odin to reflash the modem file to the phone
or a full flash to the latest firmware

Same problem appeared on my SGS. Boy this sucks. The wifi became "hard" to connect sometimes. Or I could connect but had no internet access. Then I disconnect and connect several times to have net access.
One hour ago the wifi died. I turn it on it says "Unable to search for networks" and shuts itself off.
WTF. I have to reflash!!!! Not good. Also I don't know what caused this. I'm on JM2 with One Click Lag fix 2.1

one thing is for sure, the STOCK rom has no problem with that
so it is either a Router thing, or a firmware specific problem

JM2 isn't a final release firmware. Realistically, if you want everything (well, other than GPS) to "just work", stick to official firmware.

Well, I for one, have only the the official firmware and it is the latest one what I have learned. Still the phone behaves as in my original post after just a couple of hours. Is this and other peoples beautiful Samsung Galaxy model not tested enough by Samsung? Has anyone more information than we have?

I agree thats Help me. or you can try upload update.zip (file to make root) on your device and flash that can help too.

Hi all! Thank you for your inputs to my problem. I have now got it working. For those who are interested how, I can tell you that I only did a simple Factory Reset command.

problem solved!
I had the same problem.
I was trying to configure a invisible ssid and by distraction I created a normal WPA 2 network, ending up with two networks with the same ssid (when I was turning off the wifi, it wouldn't go off at the first try, weird, )
Solution:
Edit the "/data/wifi/bcm_supp.conf" (with root permission) and eliminate the duplicated network, problem solved! At least in my case (no need for factory reset )

[Q] WIFI not working anymore.

Hi guys.
first my wifi became unreliable, it disconnected, didn´t reconnect sometimes etc...
now, it´s not working anymore at all.
when i go to wi-fi settings it says turning on, then the red arrow appears, then immediately it says turning off. down there comes a message "unable to scan for networks"
i searched the whole forum, but didn´t find a simlar problem.
i reseted it to factory, didn´t help.
it can´t be a router problem, ´cause all the other devices on the wifi work, even my friends myt4G.
any tricks or ideas anyone?
i got this form a friend in the states, bought last december, he ment, in the US they have mostly only 90 days warranty, in germany we got 2 years.. is this true..?
stock rom. 2.3

Try chaning the channel on your Wifi Router. Most of the new routers you can go to routerlogin.net from a computer that is connected to the router and change the settings. I had the same problem and it appeared all of my neighbors were using the same channels i was. I move to a different one and haven't had a problem since. It will not affect the SSID or the password So all of your login it stuff will stay the same. Any WAN connected device just might lose signal for a second or two while the router changes channels.

thx. channel was on auto. changed it to 11 out of 13. didn´t help. also, i have only 3 wifis in my neighbourhood, i can get with my pc. on the htc, it shows only mine + the direct neighbour..
it seems that wasn´t he prob here...
could it be a hardwareprob? anyone any knowhow on american warranty?
the wi-fi button is almost not responding anymore.. when i turn it off, it turns itself on again, when i go into wifi settings, ist keeps truning on and off again in an endless loop....
edit: tethering does also not work anymore. when i click on portable wif hotspot, it says error...
hardwarefailure?

i found these guys who have the same problems.
http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/101/p/11557/49097.aspx#49097
seems to be a gingerbreadissue... perhaps i´ll try downgrading first.

so i downgraded to 2.2.1 and it worked. got to bed, woke up, not working anymore "unable to scan for networks" again

Wifi not working

Creating a new topic, because the other one is tagged as solved, but it doesnt solve my problem however.
So my wifi is not working, it's connecting to any wifi hotspot but not sending data thru that, which ends in failing loading any pages on IE, cannot download any apps from market and so on...
Anyway this is what I tried so far:
1. Flashed to stock rogers (also tried different Tango roms)
2. Did hard reset procedure via hardware keys (Format all Yes)
3. Did hard reset procedure via About menu
4. Did hard reset procedure via Samsung Diagnosis code sequence
5. Logged to my wifi network, everything looks fine at this point.
6. Opened IE and entered google.com:
"We're having trouble connecting to this webpage" (sometimes no error message but white page with scrolling bars appearing on touch)
7. Tried to access my wifi router via IP address (192.168.1.1) - the same results like above
8. Tried to ping my Samsung Fous IP (192.168.1.18) from my PC with success
9. Disabled wifi network security on home wifi router, the Focus still not working
Additionaly tried a method that fix issues with wifi after using latest wp7 tools, but it didnt help at all.
When using my providers APN there is no problem with opening pages on IE etc., but it's not Wifi.... Internet is also working if I have USB cable plugged in, but again it's not wifi.
Cannot use warranty, the phone is from the USA and I'm in Europe... without any warranty service.
What else I can do, maybe there are some diagnosis codes that can actually help with real diagnosis on what happened with wifi on my phone?

Hello again (from the other thread). For completeness, add the following:
- current OS version
- did/not use WindowBreak
- when did the problem start (if you can identify an event and OS version/revision) - or you noticed
There might be a test for wireless in the "diagnosis codes"... Good luck!

After you use the diagnosis fix, it might take some time, mine didn't work immediately but after some time, it detected my home network. But it seems you are able to connect but internet does not work, this is certainly issue with router/DNS settings in your phone, because I have faced these problems in iPhone, it might wrongly mapped to unreachable ip, but never faced this issue in Windows Phone, you might try changing the default gateway/dns settings, you should also reset your modem/router, and try basic setup before WPA/WPA2 setup

Hi there
Currently using 7.10.8773.98, (MAGLDR 2.0) but tried different versions, even vanilla pre-mango ones, they didnt work well with wifi on my phone either. I checked it at friends home wifi, which is totaly different network and routers.
I never used WindowBreak, never had to because my phone was already unlocked long time ago with ChevronWP7 application.
Noticed the problem about 2 weeks ago, but I didnt use wifi too much, so it could started much earlier. Last installed application was WP7 Tools 0.8 alpha, and all I did back then was using some built-in tweaks (3G?) if there is any, cant remember to be honest but for sure I wasnt editing registry or anything like that, I just play some games from time to time, cant event tell why I installed it, maybe because I noticed there is a new version. I cant tell because I never paid attention to it especially with rare wifi usage at a time.

I have isolated the problem I guess, and it's not the phone's fault. Something wrong with the main access point (Mikrotik) at my place. This is weird because everything is working just not on Samsung Focus. I digged thru many options and couldnt find anything that blocked or stuff like that. Well took it to totaly different place and another wifi network, and guess what - it's connecting to wifi with data flow...
Anyway consider this topic as solved.

Wifi on Lolipop 5.0 G870A will not connect

For the last week or two I have been unable to connect my phone to wifi networks.
At first the problem would be that I was getting disconnected from any wifi network I joined, now I can't connect at all.
The wifi networks page sometimes (not always) does not detect a strong network even if I am standing a few feet away and the phone has previously connected and other APs are connected and working like my pc
If I try to connect then I get the "Connecting" status followed by "Saved,secured"
I have searched the internet looking for a fix to this and tried wiping the cache partition, forgetting the network, airplane mode toggling on and off, apps that wipe the known network list and some others including lastly a factory reset on the phone but nothing seems to remedy the issue.
From the wifi router I have tried using an unencrypted (open) connection
Now I think I may also be having problems with the bluetooth connecting in the car but I haven't had a chance to really investigate that one yet and it may or may not be related to the last factory reset.
My phone is not rooted.
Build no. LRX21T.G870AUCU2B0F3
kernel3.4.0-4443965
[email protected]#1
Can anyone offer any assistance to my current issue ?

I have just confirmed that the Bluetooth in my car is not detecting my phone when it scans (the phone bt is switch on and the visible box being checked) so that's both radios with similar issues.

Im having same issue with wifi... sm-g900r4

I just stumbled on a clue, while using an app called 'wifi cleaner' there is a feature allowing you connect to wifi networks within the app. I type in the password, authenticating is shown on the screen followed by "incorrect password".
I know the password to be correct..
Mmm

I was wondering if you ever got this issue fixed?
I thought I had but the problem comes back in a different way.
Sometimes wifi connects but only connects at 5 mbps.
Now wifi will not turn on at all. ( radio button is greyed in settings)
I did find a thread on xda where some Motorola users were having the wifi off issue and it was due to a missing system file which could be replaced on a rooted device. However I don't have root on my s5 g870a and it's not likely I can get it.
