WiFi is not working - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom Software Upgrading

My WiFi is not working when I turn it on. When I turn it on, it just do nothing. I tried to run WLAN Module Test to check the problem using Self Diagnostics, sometimes it can detect the MAC address, means OK, but sometimes it shows error saying "GetAdapterInfo() return FALSE....".
For your info, I already reflash the updated ROM (0426), but it seems not working. Now, I'm using ATOM EXEC ROM (0721).
Can someone please help me before I send my ATOM to repair center?

You sure this isn't after an ActiveSync session? My device often needs a soft reset after a session.

Yeahhh... I'm very very very sure about this! Eventhough I didn't use Activesync, the same problem still happened.
I tried to downgrade the ROM, the WiFi still not working!

I have the same problem as idzilhafis.
Tried to run Self Diagnostic and got the same two answers, sometimes the module is correctly detected and somtimes not.
When the module is detected during the test, also the Access Point name is detected (I have a wifi AP at home), but the connection doesn't work.
When I use Wireless Manager, the module is not alwais detected and sometimes also the wifi button disappears.
Of course I flashed and re-flashed the firmware, using the original manufacturer's latest ROM and the "not for sale" version. Nothing changes.
May be an hardware failure?

I think, I can answer myself.
Yesterday in the evening I did put the Atom in the fridge for a while, because i noticed that using the pda and then increasing its temperature, the module was never recognized.
Using the pda after an hour of fridge (I did put it in a little bag), the wifi module works like a charm. It is ok until it's temperature raise again, then the module hangs.
Such a behaviour is typical of an hardware fault.
I think that this kind of problem is surely not due to a wrong use, and should be covered by warranty. But I don't know where to send it for service (I'm in Italy).
Any idea?

I had tremendous problems with my O2 Atom WIFI which would not connect to my laptop WIFI LAN Network. I asked O2 Technical People & Lot of people on this and other forum but got no perfect response.
Practically trying many options I by chance put back the old ROM upgrade of O2 2006123-45 and tried switching on the WIFI and lo and behold it worked fine.
Then I reload the new ROM 20060426 again and it works fine.
This proves that if you reload the NEW Upgrade ROM more than once it locks the WIFI.

No, it proves that any ROM upgrade can result in strange things, and reflashing either the same ROM or another ROM can fix it. It's well known with stuff like battery use (some users have had their standby time doubled by just reflashing the same ROM).

I sent to o2 expert and he don't know what to do. Tried to change registry, still not working. Tried to reflash, stillnot working. I think hardware problem. Don't worry, I still got warranty!

Hi All, I'm a newbie.
Pls shows me where can I download this oldrom O2 Atom 2006123 (-45)?
Or Who can give it to me through email: [email protected] ?
Help me pls, tks a lot

Hardwaredamage trou faulty Flash possible?

Hello,
yesterday i was flashing a new rom to my prophet and for some reason i got a bluescreen while doing it. and the process stopped at 60%
after flashing again without problems i face some poblems.
sometimes it takes 1 or more softresets for the cell to find my network.
wlan ist not working at all. i can find a present network but when i try to log in i allways get the message network unaviable.
i tried to install the original o2 rom that came with my device but i have the same problems
just that it finds the wlan network and as soon as i enter the password the complete call hangs.
so now i have the shadow "my edition" 2 rom on my phone but i cant get it running it goes till "tap the screen to set up your Windows..." and then nothing happens anymore
i can not even get to the bootloader the phone just does not boot when i hold any button during boot. only thing working it hardreset but that does not change anything
before i tried to flash a new rom i was using the "my edition" 2 rom and everything was working fine but now after the crash it does not work anymore
i managed one time to get it running compleatly but wlan did show the same problems as under othe roms
could it really be that i damaged the hardware durning my abortet flash?
can anyone offer some help how to fix this?
IT seems unlikely that you have damaged the hardware, but it is possible.
Can you enter bootloader? If so, disable connect through USB in activesync, connect the device, and run a NVID AKU 2.2 WM5 ROM. See if the problems persist with this.

Wi-Fi & GPS unresponsive

I seem to be having a small(or large?) issue with my Wi-Fi connectivity - after rooting my phone it didn't surprise me that I lost GPS functionality, it didn't surprise me that I never got it back but hey I can live without it if it means I don't have to wait for HTC.
What's beginning to bother me is the fact that my phone can't manage a Wi-Fi connection it could 3 days ago.
Tried restoring my 1st nandroid backup that I made immediately after I flashed the custom recovery and I still had no Wi-Fi. And no GPS.
Also I have tried flashing 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 as well as 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.08.29 with no result on either front.
Please help me out if ya can.
What ROM you using pal?
1st thing to try is to put both your GPS and WiFi on, then turn your phone off and back on again.
I'm currently trying to use SenseHero 2.2
I have tried turning on both WiFi and GPS and rebooting, I have also tried similarly - leaving them on and flashing the radio too...
It doesn't seem to be helping all too much.
Furthermore(and the part that concerns me most) I have tried restoring my initial nandroid, the 1st one I made and saved after flashing the custom recovery and still nothing.
and there's no mention of issues in the Sensehero thread no?
If I was you,....
I'd backup my sd,... Format it. Then run a RUU so it unroots and goes back to stock state,... then see if it is working again or not.
I've been searching threads over as many forums I can find for DAYS. But still a no go..
I suppose I'll try to unroot it. I haven't finished researching the RUU's, does it matter which one I use?
Well apparently unrooting the phone doesn't reinstate the GPS or WiFi connectivity.... GPS still "unable to determine location" and the WiFi still SEES the WLAN networks in range but still cannot connect to any of them.
I can't seem to find anyone else who has had problems with WiFi connecting let alone wifi AND gps problems.

[Q] Bluetooth Problem with o2 latest firmware KI4

Just updated my o2 i9100 via Kies to latest firmware PDA:KJ1 /PHONE:KI4 /CSC:KJ1 (O2U)
Everything seemed to go ok and phone rebooted
Now when I switch on Bluetooth a message apears telling me there are open available bluetooth devices and then crashes.
Screen goes blank - quick flash of o2 Startup "water" and startup screen then media scanning complete and keeps looping until I can catch it by turning off bluetooth. Then its stable!!!
Newbe needs help please
BTW all was working fine before update
I have the same issue, also noticed that in 'Running Services' there are 2 copies of BLUETOOTH SHARE running, one showing 28.00KB, the other 0.00B, otherwise all other functions running ok.
Does everyone with the latest O2 firmware have this problem? I'd be grateful if anyone else could say if Bluetooth is broken for them too.
Thanks.
Updated yesterday (KJ1) no problems, switch on bluetooth, notification comes up showing available devices.
Downgraded and then let Kies try again.
This time all working!
Not sure what went wrong the first time as both times got exactly the same messages and success at the end.
How did you downgrade ?

I used factory reset.
remember to backup data first
Factory reset resolved Bluetooth issues, thanks
I've been having this problem despite several full wipes. This is happening on the leaked XXLPB (ICS firmware) as well so it doesn't seem to be a software related.
When I enter commands such as *#232337# (Bluetooth Address) or *#232331# (Bluetooth Test Mode), I can't find Bluetooth details (such as Bluetooth MAC address etc.). I'm wondering if I should send the phone for repair.
Would like to hear if this is a known problem and there is a possible fix other than a full wipe.

[Q] Wifi not working

Hi all thanks for your help,
Australian user here on virgin.
Basically when I first got the handset I flashed and used villain rom... everything worked fine for a week or two.
Then the wifi just stopped working.. it wouldn't turn on. I would enable it.. it would scan.. scan wouldn't work and the icon would turn off.
and I can't wifi hotspot my 3g connection it just says error.
The problem seemingly went away at random :S:S:S and now has arisen again.
I've tried using batista rom and that didn't help.
Tried searching couldn't find any solutions ((
ok i happen to have this issue last month and i spent 2 damn days to check everything.. but end up it's hardware problem.. you turn on your wifi it will scan a while but then shut off by itself right? if that so i really confirm you need to send back to retail shop.. before that you need to do a nandroid backup and flash back to original rom ( unroot )
trust me man it's the motherboard problem.. check this link for how to unroot..

p.s. you need to buy a usb jig to clear the binary.
hope this help

Wifi and Hotspot Problem

Hi everyone,
I have a really annoying issue for a while and I hope someone can have a suggestion.
When i turn hot-spot on, my phone freezes and reboots itself, so i cannot use this feature, however if I connect it to my computer i can share my data by Bluetooth.
More annoying issue, if I try to connect to wi-fi when my data is on, it freezes and reboots again and after that I can connect, but if I disconnect somehow, it reboots again. When I turn the airplane mode on, there is not a problem..
Has anyone of you experienced such issue?
Thanks
Sounds like a corrupt system, probably network driver or baseband
SInce you don't mention anything else I suppose you're on stock ROM , still locked bootloader, no magisk and all that. Simpliest way if your not familiar with ROM and boatloader handling is probably to do a total reset to start with followed by an update. Xperia Companion can be used.
If you're famiiar with ROM handling you may get the latest ROM from XperiFirm which you flash with Newflasher

Hi pergoteborg,
Thank you a lot for your concern.
You are right, I am on stock ROM. I have tried to do a total reset, but it didn't work.
Moreover, I am living in Italy and using Tim Italia, few days ago I was in Austria and in there I did not have any problem when I connected to an Austrian operator. I tried with a different TIM sim card in Italy, it was same. I will try with a different operator as well, but I have not had time yet.
Does it pop up anything on your mind about what could cause such a strange problem?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
