Hello XDA, is anyone getting the "Wifi Error" message when trying to turn on wifi on the fascinate? I am currently on the Evil Fascination Rom and this was also occurring when I had the Superclean 2.9.2 rom on my phone. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same problem or is it a froyo bug?
Thanks
I have always had this issue using the notification window to turn on wifi. This is even when stock. So I'm thinking Sammy has fuxed something up. (Like they did the stock browser)
Oh ok, it is a bug then. I'll just start turning on wifi through settings. Thanks.

I think the issue is called "data drop"? Anyways, although I am currently running Axura 2.0.3, it doesn't seem to matter, all 2.2's seem to do it. There will come a point in the day when I try to open something web-based, the 3G activity on the notification bar just does nothing. I suppose rebooting solves it for a while, but going to settings>wireless & network>mobile networks>network operators>search now and then re-choosing T Mobile somehow resets it as well.
-Can somebody explain what the bigger issue is here (why it does this on 2.2)? -Is there some type of a "fix" out there, or one contemplated?
-If there isn't, is there a better way to re-set the data than either of the 2 things above? If re-registering solves it, how does it get un-registered in the first place?
-On 2.1 ROMS (and even stock) I was routinely getting data speeds of between 4-5M. On 2.2 it's hardly ever more than 3. Is this something inherent in 2.2? Seems like we went backwards a bit???
Hmm, I haven't seen it yet. I did experience Airplane mode once on one of the earlier Onyx releases, and the only thing that solved it was to reboot the device.
I have experienced a strange issue with the browsers though, I will get a notification that internet connection is required, but the page loads, I even tried to download and install an alternative browser, and got the same annoying pop-up, mind you I was on 3G, and also used the market to download the app to install it at the same time in the same location.

That also happened to me yesterday. The pages in the browser does load but it's annoying that a pop up message will always appear when using the browser. I'm using Froyo now for almost a week and it happened the first time yesterday. Then i reboot then it's fixed.
I am getting a lot of disconnects too. But it also happens when I am on wifi, sometimes wifi refuses to start and errors out. Onyx 3.1.
Just happened trying to post this - wifi.

Did your area recently have 4G go live? I've had data problems on both mine using froyo and my girlfriends running stock ji6. So I don't feel the froyo roms are the cause. Last night neither of us could get data to work for more than a few minutes at a time.

I too have noticed this on all the 2.2 roms. What I see is the up/green arrow on the 3G icon light up but not the down/orange arrow. I'll try loading stuff up on the web/market and nothing but all the while that green arrow is lighting up. I'm guessing green = upload and orange = download? Idk, but its annoying as hell.

I just came back to the office and was able to use it without the annoying pop-up.
It is strange, the page loads in the background while the pop-up comes up.
Ahhh, the Froyo gooodies LOL

Not yet. Philly always gets hit up last. I did some more searching and found this in the early part of the Axura thread:
"The Lib & Bin fixes are for the battery.
I haven't had any problem.
It seems to be a hit & miss type of thing.
He told me That is was probably the same issue that was causing his network location to not work, and that he fixed in with the lib and bins. Just waiting on a release. Everything else seems great in this rom. Runs much smoother that the JPM build."
I have no idea what this means or if it's relevant, but there's something ain't right...
Running Axura. Since 2.2 does not see the hsdpa, I loaded the ji6 modem and all is working great. No data issues at all.

No update on this thread. Anyone got a fix?
I am experiencing the same problem with all the 2.2 ROMs, currently on bionix-v 1.2.1 with KB1 modem.
When it is in the "data drop" condition, sometimes voice calls would not connect and SMS fails to send. But signal status still showing full bars (I live next to the tower).
I'm on an UMTS/HSPA network, so it does look to be a ROM rather than a radio problem. I've tried almost all the available modems - same problem. Yes, I use my phone heavily so there is always one or two apps trying to access the network - and they would be all be stuck (or errors) at the same time.
If I'm tethered, either via 2.2 AP Mode or USB tether, the session is stuck until reset/reboot.
However, the free "WiFi Tether for rooted users" app from the market gets around this condition all the time... somehow :
Been utilizing GSB and Ginger for a bit now and do not recall experiencing this particular issue before.
But since CM 7 and the SD Card tweak ... can't remember precisely when, it seems that I loose connection to the network after receiving calls. Maybe once or twice that I can't attribute to a call.
Rebooting fixes it and then I learned about the Airplane tip and that does it without a reboot.
Anyone else having similar issues or any ideas on what might be causing it?
Install procedure I have been following is the standard complete wipe, flash rom, flash GAPPS, set phone back up.
Thanks,
Collin
the only phones that can talk and use internet is Atat..so wen ur on a call ur network wont work.. only wifi.
Not quite the nature of my post. After ending the call the network is not connected even though it's on in settings.

Not so much that, but
Does anyone know if there is a way to remover launcher pro as a launcher after flashing GSB 2.8 and essentially run vanilla?

Didn't you already post this in a new thread? Also, your post has nothing to do with "losing network" so it's not nice to hijack an unrelated thread.
I've been losing my 3G connection, as well. There also seems to be an issue when using the notification power widget. Sometimes it will work perfectly turning it on and off. Other times it will light up when I want to turn it on, but 3G won't actually connect, then it is hard to toggle it back off. Not sure if it's a cm7 issue or not. It appears that the checkbox is checked in the "wireless and network" settings when the notification power widget is toggled "on" even when it isn't connecting.
Yeah after reviewing my posts and questions since March 12th or so when I joined XDA, I have not the issues that I am having now. From Ginger Tazz 12 through GSB 2.7 CM 7 RC4 things have been very enjoyable.
I have been following the standard routine since March about wiping, flashing rom then gapps.
I first noticed the issue with GSB 2.8 CM7 final. Just dealt with and was sure that it would go away in the next build but 2.9 hasn't changed much.
Losing the network has just become more random. Sometimes it returns after whatever causes which I thought was incoming calls but today I lost it after receiving an incoming text. Just odd.
I have also been experiencing exchange push issues which I didn't have before.
With posts on both forums reporting issues, I find it hard to believe the issues stem from Shed and Tazz both at the same time.

I've experienced this a couple times after calls, and even once while I was browsing the Amazon app store. I was in the middle of a page load and then my 3g was just gone. I also noticed that when this happens the cyan theme for the signal strength goes out. I usually get the network back by going into settings and disabling and reenabling the data. Its only happened a few times but still kinda weird. Oh I'm on gsb 2.8, planning on flashing 2.9 when I get back from my holiday..

My theme goes out as well. It turns white and gets bigger.

Having this same issue on 2.8. Disabling and re-enabling Mobile Data seems to do the trick, but only in the settings menu, not from the power widget.
Seems to roughly coorelate with making or receiving calls, but I am not 100% positive about that as it sometimes takes me a while to notice.
I'm going to try reverting to the stock theme and see if that makes a difference.

Just an update. The issue continued under 2.9 & 3.0.
Trying out GT and it occurs here as well.

this issue happens to me too on GSB v3.1. for me, it seems to happen pretty randomly, not after i make or receive a call. sometimes rebooting fixes it, sometimes it doesn't. sometimes turning on airplane mode then turning it off fixes it, sometimes it doesn't. another thing is that when i lose my network connection, my battery gets eaten up suuuuper fast, almost as if it's using a ton of battery trying to re-establish a connection. very annoying
I honestly have been experiencing low signal strength over many roms lately. which in turn, means quicker battery drain. wonder if it is more on the cellular side than the roms?
Haven't really noticed it happening with the latest roms. GSB 3.2 and higher. And not once on Condemned Soul.

Try re-flashing the radio. I was having the same troubles and just re-flashed the radio and pooof... everything is working fine now. I've seen the same problem with my old Fascinate as well. Give that a go and I bet that'll solve your problems.
I just flashed Mr2.5 because droidth3ory suggests it opposed to Mr2

well since i've switched to the mr2 radio instead of the mr2.5 and reflashed the rom i havent had any problems hopefully it holds up
Since I've been running 7.1 with the packaged jt kernel, I've noticed that my phone won't vibrate. No haptics, no vibration with ringing or notifications. I've checked settings>sound and the individual notification settings on the apps. Has anyone else had this issue or heard of it? I've already tried a wipe and re-install, but to no effect. Ideas?
Could be a bad file. Try finding a different download. Look on the cm website. I have no problems ay all. I used Droidstyles method.

So today I flashed the CM 10.1 ROM which is my first AOSP rom Ive tried since I got the phone. Question is this: What is different about this rom vs a TW rom or TW stock that suddenly made my wifi issue of "unable to obtain IP" go away? Is it simply the kernel or is it a certain set of drivers that are built into the rom itself?
No longer being "unable to obtain ip" message.. Hmmm
I'm just glad I got the wifi to connect. I do miss my TW a little bit I'm really liking Carbon ROM so far. Just wish I knew what made the difference to solve the issue with connecting with my router between the two types of ROMS. I had issues connecting with both stock and synergy but zero issued with cynogen and carbon. I used to get hung up on "obtaining ip" whenever any sort of security was enabled.

I noticed that some of the wifi issues were fixed in the 6/28 nightlies onward, but I'm still having issues with CarbonROM and my wifi extender. For some reason, it'll attempt to connect, then lose the signal, and give up immediately...even if the extender is in the neighboring room. The stock TW ROM doesn't seem to have this issue, but I'm hoping the CM and Carbon Dev Teams can figure something out.
Did you ever find a solution for this? I can't connect to my work WiFi on any Touchwiz ROM, but all recent aosp Roms connect with no problem.
