Hello all,
Well stupid me decided to upgrade my Rogers branded Hermes200 (TtYN) to wm6 without knowing everything I needed to. Installed HardSPL and then the HK English rom.
Phone portion works great
After searching and reading, I found the settings for connecting to the Internet for Rogers. Great.
Tried setting up active synce and it gave me the certificate not vailid error.... installed the cert on the new rom and with the h200 hooked up via usb to the computer it syncs up with my exchange server perfectly.
When I disconnect from the PC, direct push stops working....
When I force a send/receive.... it sits at 'connecting...' for a few minutes and if I'm lucking enough to be watching, it comes back with a 'connection error' message on the status bar before it flips back to number of messages in the inbox display...
The one BIG thing (not sure if it is big) is with the original ROM I'd get a 3G connection with serfing the net, doing data transfers, now I get an H connection, not sure if that is the issue, but it is the only thing I can see right now....
Any suggestions?

I can't really comment on the others, but your H vs. 3G issue isn't an issue at all. The fact that your device shows H just means that you have access to Rogers' new Vision network (HSPDA). Cooked ROMs use an H to differentiate HSDPA (3.5 generations technology, faster) from the 3G for UMTS (3rd generation technology, fast but not the fastest). Because HSPDA is an enhancement of UMTS and is built on top of it, a lot of Windows Mobile 5 ROMS (like the stock Rogers ROM) don't differentiate the fact that it's an HSDPA connection, even though it is, and just show a generic "3G". So... rest assured, the H thing is not a bad thing.
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.
Hi, i was just wondering if its possible to turn off the 3G on the HD2. I had an iPhone and a Desire where it was possible so was just wondering if its possible on this?
Many thanks, GS
Sure is: go to Comm Manager>Settings>Phone>(slide to tab)Band>Select Network Type. (choose GSM)
You may have 3G toggle in Comm Manager but dependant on your ROM (can be added)
Also these phone settings can be reached from Phone dailer>Menu>Options
And you may have a phone settings link also in windows Menu>settings>Personal>Phone
These instructions are assuming you are WM6.5-6.5.x ...
Ahh ideal. Thanks for the response.
Is there a way you can completely turn off the data connection? I dont want a permanant connection via 3G or GSM. I just wanna turn it off like you can on most phones. Is this possible?
Thanks, Darryn

Hi,
The CM7-ZMOD CYANOGENMOD 7 is for me the best room for locked bootloaders! With great performance end super battery saving, but I have one problem, when I try to search for available mobile operators networks, every time it’s ending whit this error (“Error while searching for networks“) it’s impossible for me to get a roaming, I can access only my default SIM card network. Can somebody help my whit this problem please? With some fix or apk for network searching and selecting one of them?
Manny thanks for any helpful answers…
same happens here,
haven't found anything else thats not working for me just this
running on same rom, doomkernelsV6
(just to point out its not a 1man problem)
Ive bin looking in the build.prop file and the roaming says false? Could this be something to look into or am i way of base like is it just another standard setting like the ringtone says "x" tone (to lazy to go check)
Sent from my CM7 Zmod / doomkernels v6 UL BL X10!
(And all that without bricking it) so far atleast.
That roaming setting is for data connections I think. If roaming wouldn't be enabled for phonecalls you wouldn't be able to drive around in your car while being on the phone with someone.
I have tried the rom myself and I experience more or less the same thing. After startup I am not able to unlock my SIM card via pincode. Only after that step my SIM will look for networks and connect to the default network. So my phone is not connecting to a network at all, weird!!
Hey, so I have a Samsung Galaxy S running CyanogenMod 9.
I want to test if my 3g is actually working or not. I used to use the 3G internet on the phone until I changed plan without mobile internet and now I've changed back. The problem is there is no 3G connection now.
I've been onto my network's forums and followed their instructions for setting up APN's etc. and the settings are perfect (even though I never changed them since the last time it worked)
So my question is that is there some way to test if your 3G hardware is actually functioning?
Bump. Does anyone know anything to test if your 3G h/w is working?
Bump. Anyone?
