I can not turn on wifi in my htc elf

Hello, i need your help. I can´t turn on wifi in my device. I try with a lot of roms, radios, etc. but it impossible. When i touch de wifi icon the machine think a few seconds and then it stay in grey again. Sorry for my poor english.

I have the same problem here. I own an HTC TOUCH (ELFin) - IPL 2.21.002 / SPL 2.21.0000 and the original ROM from Orange (Spain). I can not tell you when it happened but i tried several ROMS and Radios and what is happening is: I go to Comm Manager, and tap on WLAN icon to turn it on, I see Windows spinning ball and finally I get the grey icon again.
Can somebody help me with this please? I really don´t know what to do

Hi
You write you tried many roms but your SPL shows your device is Cid locked Unless you flashed back you your original orange rom ? Anyway did you use wifi before flashing? did you try Settings/Connections and not only Commanager?

Hi! I had exactly the same problem after sim unlocking the phone.
The wifi could not turn on, no matter what I did.
I tried other radios, other roms, my roms but wifi was not working.
I could not even see the MAC address of the wifi chip.
The field inside the Wifi program was empty.
So I was absolutely sure that the wifi chip was not working anymore.
But one day after about a year of non operating wifi I tried to change my rom.
After some flashing and installing I tried to start the wifi without hope.
And IT WORKED! And the MAC address was visible again!
I don't know how that happened, I don't know how to guide you to fix it,
but don't give up trying!

Hi there ! My girlfriend owns T-Mobile MDA Touch that has the same problem as described above: Pressing the grey WiFi icon (Comm Manager) > Thinking for a few secs > Icon stays grey. I spent last 2 days of searching for a solution without success. Even this forum seems too difficult to me. I don't understand to many terms too... I would really appreciate if someone patient helped me. I've already backuped the phone via WMDC (& Outlook) so far. I also tried the hard reset too but it didn't fixed the problem. I would also like to know if her T-Mobile MDA Touch equals HTC Elf ? Green & red button on her device is larger that on the picture of HTC Elf...

But this leads to a solution for Trinity model, doesn't it ?

I was surprised when I succesfully turned on the WLAN today. I hope this will last forever !

problem with WIFI on TYTN

hello Everyone, i'm new around here, but still i've got to benefit from all the information and knoledge poured on these pages for upgrading my TYTN to WM 6 (Schaps 3.54b) as well as adding the Hard-spl and upgrading the radio to 1.41
so, let's start from the begining. before doing the upgrade i was already having the problem with the WIFI, and that is that one day, it started searching for networks, but never found any, not even if i was 20 cm close to the Access Point. the problem persisted until i upgraded it to WM6, which was 2 days ago, and then miraculously it started working again, and detected my home's wireless network. but yesterday it begun to have the same problem again, searches for networks, but never finds any....
i really don't know what to do now... has nayone else had the same or a similar problem and found out a way to solve it? or does anyone know what might be causing the problem so that i can fix it?
thank you very much in advance for all the help that i'm sure you will all provide.

the problem has been solved, sorry to everyone if i made you loose some time reading this thread.
the thing is that i didn't look at all the options on the connectivity tab, and on schap's rom, there are 2 wifi icons, one for the settings, and another one to manage the networks, i didn't see this last one, but now after studying all the options, i've managed to set it up correctly and all is working fine now.
again, thank you very much, and sorry if i made you waste your time
to any mods out there who might be reading this, you can delete this topic.
thank you.

Cannot access Marketplace or Twitter Updates

Hey all.
Hope you can help. This is driving me nuts.
Out of the blue, I cannot access Marketplace or twitter updates. Email adn Web are working fine over same connection.
See this video for the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxMmdWElZZc
(Sorry in advance that it came out side ways?!)
Its the same on wifi, makes no difference what connection I'm on.
I installed Total Commander and poked around but didn't delete anything etc. Just opened and closed folders.
Anyone got any idea for me?
I'm at a loss. I feel like its my fault but I've gone over and over the settings and did a soft reset. Not willing to do a hard reset just yet as I don't want to install everything all over again.
Thanks for any advice/help in advance!
wab.

This just gets weirder and more frustrating. What have I done? I downloaded "The Channer" with an excellent wifi connection and it says it cannot connect to the internet, asks me can it use cellular connection and still can't connect? Something seriously wrong here. Help!
I have a video of the above uploading to YouTube right now. Seriously, some advice appreciated. Ta.
Edit: Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAygBKFydME
I think it may have something to do with an accidental deletion of files in ConnMgr in Total Commander?: See that mess here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6_9jcAAzbE
I didn't hit delete on any of the files there. Just pressed them and then they disappeared...

Can Anyone help? Could someone please look in ConnMgr to see what files are there? Thanks!

Dont soft reset. Power off and power on. Repeat if necessary.

Thanks Gavinfabl. I've power cycled about 5 times to no avail :-(

Goto settings tab on home screen, select menu, all settings, connections, wifi and turn on from here. Also, try rebooting your router. Can you connect on 3g signal?
Also try going into the connections applet, and edit current and untick connect via proxy if ticked.

Hi again, I have wifi on and it doesn't make any difference. I've rebooted router, can get mail and web fine, also wifi router at work is fine, again mail and web only. Twitter, Marketplace and The Channer all give an immediate unable to connect error. I fear its something more serious. I've no issues with my 3G or HSDPA signal. I've checked and unchecked proxer server and it makes no difference. All logical courses action (to me at least) are proving fruitless.

So, I uninstalled Marketplace and reinstalled it from the mp.windowsphone.com site, restarted my phone (automatically) and then did a soft reset.. now Marketplace won't even open although its listed in the start menu. I am seriously about to throw this phone out the window...

Was going to do a hard reset. Discovered MyPhone won't connect either to backup my stuff. What is going on???

I had same problem with Marketplace and Facebook. Everything else connected fine over wifi and 3G. I ended up doing a hard reset and it has been fine ever since. It was the only way I could get around the problem

i have the exact same problem ive spent hours on the phone with msoft to no avail you have to be a very special kind of stupid to be a customer service rep at microsoft man they are brain dead anyway if someone gets this figured out please post and a hard reset on mine did not work

What other apps have you installed getwet as a matter interest. Are you having the exact same issue as in my videos? Trying to find a commonality here. Its not good that a hard reset did not work for you! I was planning on doing that this weekend.

Happend to me to.
FB, market and widget stopped working but a hard reset fixed it!?
No clue what made it happen, I've installed most apps again and this time it works fine.

I've made a app "WiFi Connection Manager" with fix Wi-Fi problem feature. Available on Google play.
If your phone is rooted, an enhanced fix mode can fix most of the Wi-Fi problem.

Im having the same problem with my Lenovo p770. I stopped Lenovo's battery app and so far seems to be ok. Sigh, didnt expect such petty problems.

Turning off the battery app made no difference. Any solutions?

wi fi prob
