When you installed new ROM did you run connection setup and then disable proxy? That is usually why people have no data connection
My data "works" but is very iffy. I'm finding that a lot of times I can't even make a call without having to close my data connection. I'm on 3G ("H") so this shouldn't be a problem.
And what sucks is later WM6.5 roms are having difficulties closing out the data connection automatically. I always pull my phone out of my pocket and see the data has been connected for like 4 hours. I disable Data in the HTC Connection Manager but it still reconnects automatically. I think its my email opening the data connection, but it should close after so many minutes. I've noticed this on several of the later roms.
I have my email setup through a UC XML file on first boot. Is it just me?
You may want to try flashing a new radio and then the appropriate Rilphone.dll. Maybe this will break things free. You do not even loose any data in the process.

so i recently went to the wm6 ROM 'Hermes_WM6_WWE_vp3G_v2.0_ATT' and am using that new 1.48 radio. IPL is 1.04 and SPL 2.10.
now when i am on the phone (voice) or am synched to the computer, i lose my internet connection???? it comes back as soon as i hang up or unplug the USB but what gives with this? is there a setting that i need to activate or some patch for the ROM that i need for this? i just noticed this today but is über frustrating and i can't figure out why this is happening. outside from that i like this ROM build but this internet thing is irritating. any ideas?
There is a setting on your PC when you set up active sync for your device to keep the internet connections even when you sync to the PC. As far making a voice call, you can only do that while on 3G, not on Edge.
yeah I know about the activesync setting I think that might be the pc prooblem because I can't remember if I checked that box but anyway... I like in the middle of orlando fl and the data only switches between hsdpa and 3g, I am talking about dropping the internet while on the phone and in a 3g area (like my house). I just assumed they might be connected but maybe not. I can fix the activesync issue no problem but about the voice call situation I don't know. I might just try a different rom and/or radio because now that I have upgraded it seems the device is slightly slower and the battery life sucks too... any more ideas please let me know.
I've been noticing that when I turn on the Wifi switch on my 6800m the EV icon turns into the wifi search antenna, but the wifi radio (maybe saying this wrong) doesn't try and connect to anything (access points, adhoc) I just sits there.
Used to get the "Radar" sound affect and I would be prompted to enter my WPA key, but now it just doesn't do it.
I tried reading the thread, but its up to 55 pages and i just didn't see anything.
I've tried to install a completely rom, just what was provided, and I still cannot get the wifi radio to search for wireless networks to connect to.
Any ideal?

Try going to the connections settings and choose WiFi.
Make sure the Networks To access tab is set to Only Access Points or All Available.
While on that screen go to Menu and choose the Advanced option.
In this menu check the box that states "Turn On available network notification" and on the scroll menu choose never.
Then on the Network Adapters section make sure that the "My Network Card I connected to " is set to " The Internet " or what ever setting is made on your router.
If that doesn't work try to make sure that your Wireless Router is functioning properly. Like unplugging the power from it for a minute and letting it reset. Or if you have a Linksys router you can search for a Wifi device by pushing the Cisco Systems Button in the from ( If enabled ). This issues a broadcast to all wireless network cards but only the one with the proper key can connect to it.
I noticed that something is a little weird I guess .. besides my reference to Vzw Wife .. typing in the dark is dangerous .. especially with on contact.
Anyway
I don't think my "connections" are correct.
When I go to "Connections" with WIFI off i get
and Look at Network Nanagement I have 3 network options
Verion Wireless, My Work Network, My ISP
I have Verizon Wireless entered for both options.
I do not see "The Internet" or "Work" as options.
When I chose my network adaptor as you stated .. I can see "The Internet" and "Work".
All the other setting were as you said in regards to WIFE andthe network card.
The title of this made me laugh.
I think there is a bigger problem in that when I have the WiFi switch on ... my bluetooth disconnects. I'm going to try one of the older roms and see if it works.
Shouldn't "Internet" and "Work" be visible when I go to Network managment under Connections?
I guess there is something wrong with my phone. I tried NexVision's rom and I could search and connect to my Bluetooth headset with the WIFI switch on, but still cannot search for wifi connections.
show your wife where the router is so she doesnt have to look for it?
(sorry couldnt resist)
could you flash a stock rom and see if wifi works there? its bad news for you but i suspect hardware...
Yep ... I think its hardware also ... and the Wife has no clue what the Router is LOL.
I guess I have a semi Vogue for now.
edit:
I flashed alllll the way back to 2.1.0 and still doesnt work.
I'm downloading the radio for the stock. now and will load the stock verizon rom in a moment. I'll let cha know.
I have alltel and ever since I started using Radio 3.27 my WiFi stopped working (not sure if the radio is the issue). I hear lots of other peoples still work. When I turn the switch to on (with bluetooth off) the circle goes on around the antenna icon and then imediately turns off. I know I have several WiFi routers in the area. The laptop picks them up but the phone does not.
Any vzw users able to use wifi with the new Radio?
Ahh ... Thats interesting.
To be honest ... this is the first time I have attempted to use the wifi since on the new rom. Last nite I was at home and said, I never tested it so I tried and it did not work.
It would make since that the radio could be causing the problem, especially with the radio coming from a beta product if I'm not mistaken. Also that Beta Product being released from another carrier.
Maybe when the Official Verizon Rom is stripped down (or even the pending Sprint Rom Release), us VzW users can use the Wifi, GPS and RevA.
I'm so lazy and just dont wana reloc the bootloader, flash the stock radio, stock rom and be back at such a ... non-robust phone, just for wifi. Right now.
I wonder if any VzW users that are using the new radio and new Radio based roms are able to use wifi?
I have an xv6800 on vzw and everything works perfectly fine, including Wifi, GPS, RevA, MMS etc.
there goes my theory
Yeah that is why I stopped looking for an answer. i hear others peoples work but I have tried all the WM 6.1 roms and none of them work but I put the stock rom in and WiFi works.
Have you tryed changing the power bar for the wifi from best battery to best perforance I used to not beable to pick any thing up untill I did that then once done bam I got all kinds of routers around me. Just a thought

I just changed it, and rebooted and still cannot see our campus Router.
Oh well ... wifi wasn't a need right now ... just flipped the switch to give it a try.

It seems as if you have a hardware issue. I have the XV6800 with a Custom ROM that enables GPS and Rev A. and it works great for me.
Other then telling you to make sure that your WiFi is searching for all access points instead of computers, I wouldnt know what else could be wrong with your phone. Might as well flash everything to stock and report it so you can get a new one, but it is very weird that it didnt work.
Who knows maybe the access point you are trying to access isn't available
I might just try putting the stock radio on and then re-flashing the 3.27 radio. Maybe it did not flash completely or maybe it got corrupted. Who knows.
Hate to say i think everones right about it being hardware problam
I forgot have you done a hard reset this has fixed alot of peoples problams in the past
I think mine is a drivers issue. I installed WiFiFoFum and it started to pick up AP's. It actually connected to my AP. I did a soft reset and it stopped working again. Not sure why it worked for that 2 minutes.
Edited: As of 3-06-08 I have installed Radio 1.40 and DCD 1.7.0 and I still have this issue. The next step is to put the stock rom back in the phone to see if it is a device issue for me.
Edit #2: Ok I put the stock rom back on the phone and my WiFi still does not work. I am figuring it is a hardware issue now. Looks like I am off to the phone store to get my replacement.
same problem, dont think its hardware...right?
my wifi was working fine VZW with dcd 2.2.6, but since the upgrade to 2.3.x ive been having issues with it. it doesnt connect to my network, or search for networks like it should. sometimes it tries to connect and stays with the wifi icon on and arrows continuously going back and forth, but wheb i tap the icon, all it shows is the cellular data connection as active and no no wifi access point. in the wireless LAN settings it lists my networks as unavailable and wheb i click add new it wont search for ones that i know are around, it just asks me to put in the name of a new one. sometimes i dont even get the flashing arrows back and forth, but just get the antenna without a circle around it.
i cant imagine it being a hardware problem that we are both having since the flash to the new rom. my phone is less than a month old and wifi was working flawlessly until i put on 2.2.3 even had remote desktop over my school network working.
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.

hmmm...im out of tips then ...perhaps some other members can be of more assistance
I sure hope so, thanks for your help
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?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
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
Charlie
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?
Wi-fi problem.
Someone found any solution for this problem?
Froyo's update will fix this issue?
Thanks.
i hang on you **** iphone users they just bay for its cool smartphone **** iphone android is the king
I applied the all black morph that is in the Vibrant Themes and Apps section. After applying it though I can't seem to connect to anything. For example my device shows full 3G but I get connection errors and time our errors on anything, almost like my data connection has been lost. I can place and receive calls, send/receive txt messages just fine, but anything that needs to update itself on the internet or network just times out.
I can connect with Wifi and it works to connect to things like that, but my 3G Tmo network connection is shot..I did a nandroid backup but the issue is still present after I did a restore. I tried to register with the network several times, which it does successfully but no connection.
I was hoping a dev could tell me if it might be an issue with the radio or kernel just needing to be updated? It would be greatly appreciated to receive some help Thanks.
EDIT:
I tried installing metamorph and doing the black-to-stock morph, hoping that would correct it, still the same issue..is it possible that doing the morph originally messed up some signed file that just needs to be pushed with adb or root explorer?
Update:
I was about to do a reload if the stock image but checked with my roommate and he runs a stock g1 with 3g issues as well. I drove 10 mins out and 3g is working now...guess its an issue with the tmo tower i was on.
Sorry if I oppened a topic what is alleeady active but I was searching and I couldn't find a topic what is discussing things about this subject. My question is how can I cheak that the phone what they send me is fully working and for example this one I have problem with internet how can I repair the problems?

I recived the phone saying that if I have problem with the setting text AXTIVE TO 2020 o2 service. Ok I have done it and I got wap on it but after using it for 15 min wap gone. I had to turn off and in the phone. At home I had a wifi connection after 20 min it has gone. Then I got angry I have done a factory reset for s2 (I got it for the phone from 02) and after I didn't have wap so I had to text ACTIVE to 02 and had wap but having same problem. So I have questioned my self does this phone has other problem is well? How can I check it? How can I resolve this problem.
Is english your native language? I am still not fully understanding what the problem is...
Are you having issues connecting to your wifi at home, school, or work?
Are you having cellular data issues?
Im also not familiar with what texting "Active" to 02 is about. Im sorry but you really need to calm down a little, understand that we can and will try to help but you really have to give us a more detailed look into what is going on.
Remember, we are not there, we do not see what you see, hear what you hear, or know what you know. you have to tell us.
English clearly isn't his native language.
But, what he is trying to say is that he seems to having connectivity issues with both wifi at home and when connected to mobile data. When he texts "ACTIVE" to the 02 help line number, it restores his connection but only for around 15 minutes before it drops off again.
As for the problem, I have no idea. I would return the phone to 02 and ask for a replacement.
Yes I'm Hungarian. what I tried to say is that I am able to use the wap net work and wifi but it keep droping me out from the service. So after 15/20min restart he phone and again I have internet. I don't know why? AlsoI don't know if there is any other problem on the phone can I get a program what is run a test on it and repair the problems?
Not sure what your problem is, but if you have the mobile data connection active (the signal bars at the top of the screen show a G or 3G or H or E) and then switch on WiFi. If WiFi makes a connection to a wireless device, then the phone temporally disables the mobile data connection. If you disconnect your WiFi connection, then the mobile data connection becomes active again.
Even if the WiFi has connection to a wireless device, the device may not let them have access to the internet. So even though you have mobile data connection on, you won't be able to connect to the internet.
Switch off the WiFi and just test the mobile data connection. If that is fine, then you need to look at what the WiFi is connecting to. If it is not fine, then you need to find the mobile data connection settings for you phone network.
