Hey
I have an Ameo; running AP4 and radio version 1.50
I can turn on wireless and it says wireless is available however thats it, i cant connect to anything nor use MSN or anything like that.
So i played around with it. I seen within some setting (network cards i think) that i had 2 wireless showing saying 'available' so i clicked connect and it said 'connecting' and then goes back to avilable and after a few attempts, unavilable.
My wifi is not secured, anyone can connect. Any help appreciated
Now as for the AP4 question when i turn my ameo around, the screen layout switches how can i turn the automated switch off ?
thanks

Start, settings, connections, wifi, network adaptors tab.
Under 'My network card connects to' ensure it says 'The Internet' and not 'Work'.
I flashed the AP4 ROM on T-Mobile Ameo. There is no chance to start Wireless. There is only a WLAN-Ícon but no WIFI-Icon
but without this the AP4 Rom is very great...

Hi Baby1111,
This ist not the solution for most of the Wifi-Problems i think. In my case the Symbol wich looks like WIFI ist named "Network Card". If I change to Internet instead of work nothing changes. WIFI does not turn on.
I saw the name of device in Bootloader ist ATHE400
Here my bootloader Information in the red bar:
ATHE400
IPL-v1.00
ATHE400 MFG
SPL-v3.50.OliNex
maybe this can be a problem, before i think ist was ATHE100. Also the TOMTOM 6 requests a new activation so somthing seems to be changed with the IMEI or so.
by reading the forum there if found 3 Cases for solution:
1. this one Change from Work to Internet ->> No scuccess in my situation
2. disable the automatic screen orientation ->> no complete Instruction how to do this or i can not understand it.
3. Sent the MAC-Adress of the device to Senior users like OLIPRO and get a file to change. ->> I dont know if they are glad to get much support requests.
I hope there will be a fix wich i can do by myself without disturbing the gurus at there great work.

@ Bit117 and Baby111
I can assist you if your WiFi did not properly configure during the flashing of AP4 instead of Olipro and cmonex (Olinex) who we'd like to have working on higher issues.
Send me a PM with your original MAC address and an e-mail address where I can send you a custom file configured to your device. I will also send detailed step-by-step instructions to fix your device. You will need to use MTTY so if you don't have that, find it in the wiki.
Regards,
Raskell
p.s. - If you do not know your original MAC address, check inside your battery door. On some models it is listed there (not the same as IMEI). Others have reported that flashing back to the modified AP3 gives a working Wifi. If this is so for you, get your MAC address from there and reflash to AP4, sending me the MAC info and we'll get you working!

Yes, this is obviously not a fix for those whose wifi will not turn on.
But I've come across a few people who think their wifi is not working because this setting is wrong, and when I installed AP4 it set it to 'Work' by default.

Hi
I had the same problem, But sorted with a Hard reset. After the hard reset it connects first time.
Good luck
Hey,
I tried multiple hard and soft resets; no luck. I have an open network now with full signal.
I have tried with no sim card, 3g sim card and an o2 sim card. No Luck
Please help.
As for screen auto orientation, sorted that

I would re-flash the 1.50 or change to 1.57 radio, if I were you.
I’ve tried out all wireless with 1.57 radio in mine after having AP4,
all reception excellent. Very impressed particularly on the Bluetooth range.
where can i get 1.57 my mate?
thanks

wifi problem
i can not connect my network wireless. i have download the RUU_signed file.so how to change the radio with that file? sorry i don't know about it?
problem
i connected with by wireless but when i put an URL address in the Internet Explorer and an error appear "The adress is not valid.Check the address and try agian" how to fix it?
I have a HTC Fuze. The last few ROMS that i have been using (Energy, RRE, Tael), all the Apps always use the 3G internet to do their work even if a much faster Wifi is connected. Is there any way to make all apps(including things like email) globally prefer the Wifi when available? Also I dont want to have to keep changing settings to do this, It simply needs to be "If Wifi available use it, else use 3G"
Thanks in advance.
What i did was to go to start>settings>connections>advanced>select networks and change the default connection to the internet to "My work network", rather than my 3G network. This way, if theres any connection to the internet needed, my phone will use my wifi connection. The problem with this, however, is that when you dont have a wifi connection available, the phone will not connect to the internet unless you change the above setting back to your 3G network. If anyone knows a better way, please let us know
no i cant keep switching. thats too much trouble. there must be a better way.

Does it automatically connect to WiFi when a known network is within range even when the phone is in sleep? If yes, does it disconnect once not in use for a while?

As far as I know there is no way to do it automatically. You can use one or the other but they must be switched manually. All HTC phones have always worked this way. Maybe if the demand was high enough which apparently it is not a Chef could come up with an app that would do it. But for now you must do it manually.

that is extremely failurous. not preferring the fastest internet connection is major fail. did not know that.
My phone does this automatically. It uses the WiFi whenever it's on. If the WiFi is off, it uses the data connection.
Maybe I'm understanding it wrong?

what the heck? how? u must help me find out..
i think it does prefer wifi over 3g in WM 6.5...!!
to check it out here is wt i've done....turn data connection off...check that its on in the notification manager "when u click on the task bar"..then run any app that needs internet " opera, msn messenger, email...etc" while this app is online..
now there r two ways to check it
1-the notification manager & see if it turned to 3g data connection...if so u should find a timer running in ur service provider section, if not then its only using wifi
2-check the communication manager & see if it turned the data connection on, if its off then its using wifi...
thats how it is with my touch pro...i'm using energy rom nov. 08 build
Indeed it prefers wifi connections 2 data, but You have to :
1. Have Known wifi spots in range
2. Keep wifi connection on, while in stand by
Keep in mind that if a program starts to use the data connection it wont change to use the wifi one. So firstly connect and then open programs.

apparently its some sort of combo of this. i am using 6.5. any apps that have been using 3g continue with it. and i have to go to the comm screen and turn off data to force new apps to consume wifi. which isnt too bad, certainly not as bad as going to the network options. i would wish they made this a bit more seamless like with the desktop technology, i can switch from wired to wireless lan without even dropping a skype call.

now i have discovered a new problem. even if i open the app after i have wifi turned on and data turned off, some apps just dont want to use the wifii.
Bing maps and google maps for example just tell me there is no internet.
this is really pissing me off, whats the point of having wifi on a phone if the apps wont use it. i dont really care about the google location service if the data is through the internet, but atleast turn on.
lame.
Hey I'm new to android, just got a vibrant last week. Decided to unlock it as I travel a lot. The unlock worked, but now I'm having issues with my wifi. I can connect to a wireless network but I cant load pages. The wireless signal is strong and I tried with different routers, but still no luck. Looked through the forum and googled it but couldn't find a solution. If some one could please help with this, it would be much appreciated
try clearing your current wifi settings including remembered connections, passwords, and everything else...then re-scan for networks all over again, that's all I can think of for now
By that you mean just gong into settings->wireless and networks->wifi settings and then just forget the net work, rescan, and rejoin the network? If so, I did that but am still getting the same result. If you can think of anything else or if I didnt do what you suggested correctly please let me know. Thanks

yeah, thats what I meant :/....hmmm...sounds like your connection is working, can you download stuff from the market or is it just the browser? cause I unlocked mine too and wifi works fine
No I cant download anything from the market. I cant do anything that requires an internet connection, but it does show that I am connected to a network.

Have you been able to try another network? My first thought was it was in Ad-Hoc mode but I could be wrong. If nothing else restore to stock firmware and then try a different unlock.
Happened to me too. It would show the wifi icon on the notification bar but wouldn't load pages. I'd go to the settings and it'd say can't turn off wifi or can't turn on wifi. And when it was "on" I'd say connecting to modem then it'd just stop. When I was using the browser on wifi it would load a page even when I had full bars. I had to turn it off then back on to load another page. Is this similar to the problem your having?

I hope this doesn't sound stupid but yesterday I uninstalled Advanced Task Manager and poof my wifi started working again. The phone also seems to suffer from less occasional lag without it installed, but that's another story for another thread. Prior to this I had to manually turn my wifi connection off and on, but even that didn't always work. Since the uninstall I have not my wifi connection once. I am currently using the stock rom, rooted with minor adjustments here and there.
hi guys, i also have this problem.
i will be taking the phone in to the tmobile store on thursday.
it shows that i am connected via wifi; however, anything that requires an internet connection does not load.
very frustrating, since just yesterday i used the samsung kies software to tether a network for my laptop. i was testing the capability of the vibrant to act as a modem, and it worked just fine.
any help would be appreciated!
thank you

connected but not connected
I also have this problem.
In my Vibrant shows that i connected, but i can not load pages. Someone
found any solution to this problem?
Hi all,
This is happening to me too. Rebooting seems to get Wifi working correctly again. But the problem comes back eventually.
Maybe a bug in the latest JI6 update?

i hang on you **** iphone users they just bay for its cool smartphone **** iphone android is the king
hey mates,
i havent got always a data plan for my phone.
so normally, the mobile internet is disabled.
i do that with the following setting:
WinMo Settings - Connections - Connections - More - Choose Networks
-> programs with automatical internet access use "firmennetzwerk"
as you know, this is wireless lan.
when i change it to "E-Plus Internet", my device of course makes a data connection.
i dont use the data connection very often, so its mostly disabled. but when i wanna use it, i've always to do what is mentioned above
i guess there must be a registry value, which changes it from "Firmennetzwerk" to "E-Plus Internet" and vise versa.
can anyone say me, which one it is?
so i could make a little programm, to enable/disable it.
i tried many programms with data on/off options, but non of them really disabled it.
any other advice?
thanks!

you dont need to swap them, if you can manage to get the mobile connection disabled, it will automatically switch to using wifi so long as wifi is connected.
I use THIS. I dont use teh auto data disconnect feature of it, but the on off toggles work flawlessly for me. Flick my 'mobile web' (my default data connection) to off, and it stays off no matter what tries to connect. When i am connected to wifi, everything routes through that unless i turn the data switch back on.
you could try finding if and where the registry is changed using Kheb,
also (and pardon me, if I misunderstood your problem) why switch networks in such a tedious way?
it seems much easier to either
- enable networks (Wi-Fi or cellular) directly in the settings / comm manager
- or use quicklink switches like HD2connections?
so there's no need to dive into settings then...
thanks.
i'll give it a try.
for example with "nodata (modaco)", i could disable the data connection by pressing the button..but surprisingly, it only disconnected it....when the next program wanted a connection, it was just there again...do you understand?
DN41
i think you missunderstood it
i wanna enable it sometimes to update my facebookstatus (0.facebook.com is free for e-plus user), of course i only do it when i sit in a bus or something like that...at home i use wifi instead..
things like hd2connections didnt work for me..
maybe kheb could be the solution.

I understand, and yea, many of the data apps dont always work as expected, but the toggle in that app seems to work for me. (The timed disconnection is a little ropey, as with all apps, but the toggle works)
thanks.
i'll test it. if it works for me like for you, its fine
if not, i'll make my one "program".

it seems that the toggle simply switches THIS key 1 or 0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{long hex number, yours wont match mine)}\Connections\NAME OF YOUR DATA ACCOUNT\Enabled

why not? what I like in hd2connections is ease of usage - two quicklinks on homescreen ("Wi-Fi on/off" and "Data on/off"), when in need of internet switch on the preferred one, switch it off afterwards -> quick/selective and does not eat battery
because it does not block the data connection.
if a program has to download something, the data connection is made.
thats what i dont want.
DN41
Bsb tweaks? I used to use that to block the data connection then enable it when I wanted a quick surf
I know this is a dumb question, but can someone please tell me how I achieve tethering. I know it is set up to work on this rom but I don't know how to make it actually happen!
Thanks so much
Edit: I have the 'free tether' option selected in wireless settings
You could just download the "Wireless Tether" from Google Code. It works perfectly even on the Atrix as long as you're rooted. Should work on all the GingerBlur/Adeo mods too.
Which version do you use?
Also, does this need to use wifi, I'm trying to tether with just data connex

think about this for a minute. if you have wifi, why would you need tether?
of course tethering works on data only, it uses your wifi ON THE PHONE to create its own wifi network
you dont have to download any app, just open Settings, Wireless and Networks, MOBILE HOTSPOT, and turn it on.....
well thanks pirateghost...for the somewhat sarcastic reply. lol .
yes, sure that does make sense, duh! ...i guess it hadn't occured to me bc i assumed tethering was done thru a usb cable as i had done on WM before. something was wrong with my settings to make the wifi hotspot connect. i had to open the apn and save it (without making changes to it). this allowed it to connect and now have it working thru the hotspot.

Haha nice catch I didnt notice that. Let me power up my delorean and get 6.5 for all us. I think that is the last version before Motorola unlocked the bootloader. Wireless tether is what is recommended since there are many guides for it and works with all operating systems whereas usb would not. You could try pdanet which I paid for but not on my current device. That supports both however $30 might be more than you are willing to pay for usb support
