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)

(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!!

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.
ROM : VillainROM 3.0.0
Kernel : Ninphetamine 2.0.5

After applying the fix for Hotspot settings to save in another thread (chown and chmod the /data/misc/wifi) I tried to turn on the hotspot, after all, this was inevitably what I got the phone for, H+ Hotspot.
Now I turn it on and the network appears in my computer, but if I try and connect to it, after I type in the security key, it comes up with "Connecting" and just stays like that permanently...
Eventually it sometimes says "Limited Access".
My phone does have internet connection, but why does it not work.
Does your network allow tethering?
Did it work on another rom?
Have you tried a hard reset?
I'm using tethering on VR but with speedmod kernel with no issues.

Orange in the UK for example use and APN on their SGS2 roms that doesn't allow tethering (you can set up a tethering connection no problem, but the network won't let you have any data).
They also lock the APN down so it isn't editable (insert rude word about Orange)!
You can get round the problem by adding another generic APN for all connections and using that.
i was having the same problem and struggled alll these days for solution. I used to get limited acesses and hence checked the ip4 & ip6 drivers connectivity for solution with no luck.
Then clicked on windows update, after update everything started working. So try to update your windows.
presently i am on turkbey ROM and it is working and also checked with sensation 1.9 and here tooo works!!!!!
Hey all, thanks for all your replies.
Network: 3
Plan: The One Plan +Tethering
Resolved: Yes.
For anyone else wondering how I fixed my problem:
1) Rebooted the phone
2) Rebooted my PC
3) Turned off the WiFi Adapter in my PC
4) Turned it Back On
5) Turned off WiFi on phone
6) Turned Hotspot on without any authentication
7) Worked on PC
8) Changed back to WPA2 PSK
9) Worked with Key.

I had wifi tethering working fine on Orange with SGS running Froyo 2.2.1, but have just upgraded my handset to SGS2 running Gingerbread 2.3.5 (stock XWKI8 firmware), and wifi tethering isn't working now.
As far as I can see I have exactly the same APN settings in my new SGS2 as in the old SGS, but maybe I need to use this new trick.
What do you mean by "adding another generic APN for all connections and using that"? If I add a new APN, what settings do I put in?
Thanks.
Hey, everyone. Using your AMAZING n00b guide and overall lurking of this website for several months since January I've done quite a few awesome things with this phone. Currently I am running Cyanogen Mod 7.1.0-Ba2tF-Olympus (any further information how I got there can be provided if necessary). I'm having a slight issue though. I've noticed that sometimes I'll randomly have no data or cellular service what-so-ever. To gain access to data and cellular service at that point I will then have to restart the phone, wait for it to boot, turn on WiFi, wait for that to connect, use an application like Browser or Facebook to test connectivity, if data transmits then I'm good, then AND ONLY after I go through all that can I disable WiFi and connect through regular data and cellular channels. I was wondering if this has happened to any of you and if anyone had any idea on how to fix it?
If you need clarification I'd be more than happy to try and sort my explanation out for you.
Thank you all in advance and I hope to hear from you soon!
Hello,
Did your APN settings are good ?
You can found it there : Setting / networks / Mobile Networks / Access Point Name.
Where are you from, what is your carrier ?
Regards.
I am thinking you need to flash a new radio.
First, let me say I searched threads and forums looking for someone who had same problem and could not find any posting similar. The only one I found that similar was about the APN. I created a new APN using the settings I found in that thread, but it has not helped at all.
Got a pop-up/update message on phone yesterday about upgrading to ICS. I was running a stock HTC Amaze - not rooted - on Simple Mobile, and it was working great.
Upgraded phone to ICS OTA and love the new interface but having two problems, even after setting up the phone to run on the Simple network.
1. Phone is slow and will only run/display 2G whereas it used to be fast and say 4G.
2. Wifi tethering seems to be gone as it will not allow a tethered device to go to the page requested. (I have found threads about how to address this issue, so it is not a big concern like to 2g/4g speed issue.)
3. My android smiles are gone now......all I have are normal smiles. :-(
Any suggestions on what to do would be GREATLY appreciated.....
under mobile network settings, set your network mode to wcdma only.
I don't know much about the tethering issue, been on custom roms for a while, but apparently its a paid feature now. unlock your phone and install a custom rom, and you wont have that issue anymore
Could be a bad flash, though it doesn't really sound so, just sounds like they restricted a few things on other networks.
Fixed and working great....thanks sent to both who posted replies!!!!
Glad to see you got it fixed. If you don't get MMS, make sure you change your APN to the Simple Mobile APN. T-Mobile and Simple Mobile has slightly different APN settings.
As a newbie I am at a loss as to how i can resolve a number of issues i have with my flyer so please be gentle .....
My flyer says.it has
Android 3.2.1
HTC Sense 1.1 for tablet
Software Number 3.55.405.1
Kernel 2.6.35.10 Baseband 20.4801.30.0822u_3822.10.08.07_m Build 3.55.405.1 cl205068 releasekeys Browser WebKit 534.13
What I know.....
1. GPS never works, it is always 'searching' but never finds
2. WiFi works OK
3. Mobile HSDPA says Signal strength -75 dBm 18asu at the moment and I do not have a Wifi connection available so i was expecting all my connections would route through mobile connection (as i enabled 'Always on mobile data') but nothing that requires a connection is working ?!
4. I recently accepted an auto update for the OS and now I do not have the Icon target for the Pen even when i use the Pen tutorial !!
I have read the HTC user guide for the Flyer but it does not even come close to explaining how the connectivity works and all i want to be able to do is maintain a connection thru either wifi or GSM at all times yet is seems that even though i have a working SIM in the device (which has credit and says it is connecting) it never works when i don't have wifi. There is also no 'connection overview' page that i can find that tells me what connections are working on my flyer (GPS,wifi,GSM etc) and what strength signal they have !!!!
All advice, help or pointers gladly accepted at this point for any of the above queries
thnx
I am not sure if there is a solution short of gaining s off or HTC dev unlock or rolling back to gingerbread
Flyer
Thnx for the reply
Is how to do any of that detailed in this forum anywhere plz?
If you want to downgrade there is this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26773618
I think either way you will want to gain s off so that you can freely flash roms and hopefully solve your problem. There is risk though.
So if I understand you correctly you have no WiFi and very weak data connection? Has it always been this way?
Flyer
Don't know how to 's off' ? Is that a setting on the Flyer somewhere?
I am sorry I was not specific enough. What I should have said was that the Flyer functions fine on a Wifi connexion as far as i have seen but when there is no Wifi connexion available then i expect it to use the SIM card data connexion (GSM). I had set this option on the flyer under 'Wireless & networks \ Mobile Network Settings
I also do not appear to have anyway to see what connexions are in use for any of the apps or what signal strength is currently available for 'active' connexions
Can you not just go under settings then check wireless and networks? And what was the bit about the pen?
S off is not a setting you just click off, it is the process of unsecuring your bootloader which I do not suggest for you.
Have these problems always been there or are they new? Did you just get the flyer?
Flyer
In the settings that i have it only says 'Turn On' wifi and 'notify when open network is available' but it gives me no idea of the signal strength of any network (wifi or GSM or even GPS)i am connected to so i never know when i am switching betwen wifi or GSM or even which i am using for any app (IE, Weather, SKYPE, etc)
The pen icon was appearing when i first got the flyer but now it does not appear anywhere at any time in any app!! funny thing is it actually works when i use the tutorial up to the point where the tutorial tells you to tap on the pen config icon ... it is not visible !! I think the pen got trashed when i accepted the last update from HTC
GPS never works regardless and i was under the impression that GPS does not need either wifi or GSM to function!!
Yes, i just got the flyer a week ago
This will be a stupid question but you have an active sim in and you are sure it is a 3g model? I would first suggest running the hc ruu for your device which I know you do not know what that means and it may be hard to find
Flyer
Regarding cell network connectivity: If the Flyer was purchased for anyone but your cell carrier, you probably need to manually enter the APN info for your carrier. This is a common mistake by people who buy unlocked phones, etc. from 3rd party sources. Its easily fixed, and much easier than S-Off, RUU, etc. (which won't fix your problem anyway, if its simply caused by missing APN). You can get your carrier's APN info often by just Googling for it, or just call your carrier and ask for it.
You should find the APN info in Settings>Mobile network, or something like that (I have the WiFI-only Flyer, and its also not with me, at the monent).
The missing pen icon is odd. Does the pen do anything if you touch the screen? Make sure the pen still has battery, and try taking the battery out and re-inserting it. Factory reset may also help.
Did not think of the apn angle
