Your Amaze isn't T-Mobile, is it? Hence there has been no ICS update created for your phone...
People are doing some workaround to get ICS installed on such unbranded phones.. See that:

yea its Wind and yea the only thing stopping me from flashing is the wifi because if it's a hardware fault i cant claim warranty :/ or is it a fault of my gb? :/ my wifi get connect but i cant browse the internet through it? does it mean my wifi work if i flash a new rom?

You may want to read everything related to WiFi connection in the User Manual first.. ¡muchas gracias

i tried it with a open network no security at all and also in a free wifi zone it keep saying obtaining address for a long time and it finally connects but still i cant browse the internet even tho its connected :/

Have you tried connecting to any other wifi? That would be the best way to determine if it is your phone or your internet/router

1. Please also try some secured WiFi AP.
2. Also install and use this attached app to see if your Amaze is anyhow getting internal and its external IP from the router.

There's other carriers besides T Mobile you know!
To the OP, search the developer forum for RUBY roms - there are some for Canadian carriers as well as some others.
Who is your carrier?

If you are not getting a proper external IP - then that app hangs for about two minutes.. and then anyway displays your at least internal IP if you anyhow got any..
I guess you couldn't wait for two minutes and declared that the app crashed..

As I see my presumption was 100% correct - nothing Canadian in your handheld.. CID #44 - a typical unbranded Asian model.. That's anyhow not bad at all..
Further I see the smartphone is getting its internal IP what we may interpreter as there is no problem with WiFi hardware, it performs OK..
There is some misconfiguration (misunderstanding) between the handheld and the router.. this is why I advised you to try connecting to some secure AP..
Then If no lack - just do the factory reset on the spot and try connecting again to that secure AP..

[Q] problems with htc amaze 4g

I have got Amaze last week, but there are two main problems with this device.
First, the "power off" button doesn't work sometimes, no responses when I long press the button.
Second, after installing some apps(about 60), wifi has some problem---when the
screen off and I open again, the wifi is automatically cut off. Even though there is a wifi "label" on top of the screen, I can't browse internet. Then I manually cut off the wifi and connect again, it works. But everytime the screen closes( u know, it is unwise to keep the screen always on), the wifi will be cut off automatically. I don't know the reason. I have changed a new one this week but same problems arise!!! I am driven crazy!!! Could sb nice to help me????
besides, I have tried "factory reset", and problems will go. but when I install apps again, problem rises again...
I'm having the same issue with the power off. It was working earlier but it looks like it stopped after I applied the htc update. I've been working all day and that's the only change
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA App
htc maybe do the same error like nexus one :/
I have issue even before update!! then how do u deal with the problem now???
what is the problem with nexus one???
to solve the wifi problem....
go to settings, then click on wireless and networks,
scroll down to wifi setting and click
On the wifi settings page touch the second capacitive button on the phone, then click on advanced settings..
On advanced settings page, change the wifi sleep policy to never..
This should solve your problem
same problem happened to me today, data reset the phone power off button problem will be resolved.
I'm having this problem now...and the wifi fix didn't work.
Any other ideas?

Our power buttons were notorious for just not working one day.
I am noticing quite a bit of light bleed onto the screen from the soft key LEDs ... Does anyone else notice this, or is it the nature of the beast? I am used to amoled screens, but this screen is beautiful.

Does anyone have a solution to the power-button issue? It will shut off the screen, but wont prompt anything if you long press the power button.
---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------
Found this surfing:
"Thank you for contacting HTC Technical support about the issue you are having with not being able to power off your device Amaze device. I do apologize that you have this issue with your device and I will gladly assist you with this today. You have security credentials checked, a password set,and Fastboot off. You must either turn off security credentials or enable Fastboot. For the Fast Boot option to work you will need to re-enable the Storage Credentials(under security settings) and enter the password once more. Then, enable Fast-Boot and you should be able to safely power cycle."
That last one worked for me. Not sure *which* - I turned on fastboot *and* turned on security credentials.
* edit *
But after the test reboot, it stopped working again...check settings, and security credentials is off - but fastboot is still on.
Turn on security credentials again, and the power button starts working.
I'm not going to re-re-reboot it, though...yet.
i was thinking of getting the HTC Amaze.... like, next week, currently have the MyTouch 4g and was going to give it to my brother, but have been reading issues with the power button, over heating, BT loss, no wifi calling..... anyone having these issues as well?

I just picked up my Amaze today. I had gotten a new SIM card just two weeks ago, but the TMO folks said I had to use the one that came with the Amaze because it supported the high speed downloads; older cards would not be as fast.

I have spotty 4G coverage here. My old phone was the HD2, which is 3g. Just today I happened to get into a 4G solid area and I loaded Google Maps - nearly instant load of terrain and satellite. Those would have taken several seconds on my HD2, or my wife's Exhibit II. So I think it is indeed faster if one lives in the right area.
I can't say what difference there is in SIM cards, because I have only had the new one that came with the Amaze in the device.

Wifi calling, voice get delayed the longer the conversation.

This is unbelievable to me. I finally update to ICS and now everytime I use wifi calling for more then 15 mins, the voice gets delayed. The person I talk to on the other end hears what I say 3 to 5 seconds after I say it into the phone. This has been going on for days now and also happens with a friends Amaze at his own place.
What in the world am I suppossed to do now , since its impossible to have a normal conversation with people.
Anyone else have this issue? I am about this sell this phone now. I am not rooted and stock so I cant revert back to GB

I read that app only works for when you pick up the phone and there is a delay. Ill give it a try though. It gets extremely annoying talking to someone and then they start talking thinking I am not talking and my 5 second delay cuts them off.

Yup... Known issue since the first leak... It gets worse as conversation goes on. I just said **** it and installed quick-sense and selected to remove WiFi calling. I can't believe tmo put the option in a device on gb, it didn't work, so they update to ics, and don't fix it? Smh fail

Word.
Anyways, I talked to the tech department about it and the girl knew everything about it.
She set me up with a service ticket and they would check things out, but we both dont think much of it.
Shes going to call me back in 3 days. She said that its not a device issue, that its an OS issue, which I already knew.
She said after the 3 days we will probably do the warranty exchange. She doesnt know if the replacement phones will have will ICS or GB though but if its GB, dont update to ICS because its a known wifi calling bug. That is if they even have the amaze to replace with. I dont mind waiting because I am curious what there going to say.
So you're going to exchange your phone because wifi calling doesn't work properly? A little extreme, no?

I dont get service in my apartment. I rely on it to make all my phone calls when I am home. Without it, its almost useless. Having a conversation where the person on the other end doesnt answer you for a few seconds cuz its delayed is pretty annoying. Not to mention when they start talking again because they think I havent answered, and then it cuts them off, and there is a WTF moment lol
Yeah this is annoying I've had people click on me because they think I'm playing with them or calling to mess with them.. Hopefully tmo fixes the issue soon

Anyone ever factory reset the phone and see if the issue gets fixed at all?
Of course I told them I did it to avoid that nonsense, but now I am considering it. Just dont wanna lose all the work I put into with using facebook pictures for peoples faces when they call. Apps I can always re download
Whats even more annoying is I had the phone for 1 month and havent even begun to pay me 20 dollar a month for 20 months payments! So in the end if they send me another, Im paying for a refurb phone lol. Honestly thinking about when the GS3 comes out, selling my amaze, paying off what I owe with the money I get for it, then restarting a payment plan all over for the GS3. Yeah thats overthinking right there.

Yeah heres my own personal fix. Hang up the phone and call back every ten minutes
So in reality, rooting a phone only affects the manufacturer warranty? Something I will never and have never needed to use.
I have premium handset protection with T-Mobile. If I need to exchange through t-mobile or asurion, all I need to do is unroot it right?
Hmm Now I need to go learn how to do all this to get back to GB.

NFC and Android Beam

I was wondering if anyone has actually ever use this features with other devices like linking it up with GS3 or with other devices that have NFC and Android Beam capabilities???... and does it have to be the same device in order for it to work properly??? My guess would be "no" but I could be wrong.

My wife has the SGS2 but she won't let me do anything to it. So it's stuck on GB and it won't let me beam to or from her phone.
that sucks lol.. GB is a thing of the past and maybe perhaps her device needs to be updated to ICS in order for it to work properly.... but if your device is rooted, i heard that it may not work.

I shared a contact with my wife's (also an Amaze) phone via NFC the other day. I had tried several other times with no success. This time I heard a notification sound signalling success. It sounded so good I did it again and low and behold the contact was in there twice. My wife will never use it. I might use it again. :laugh:
lol that's awesome man...
I've used it quite a few times. Shared my contact info with a young lady I met at a bar, plus a couple of YouTube vids. But we have 3 S3s in the house also, plus a Samsung tv, so if I want to try different stuff to beam or try I always have another phone around.

One can't link to HTC Media Link without turning on hotspot

I can link my EVO 4G LTE to HTC media link HD (got it for free from pre-ordering htc one). However, HTC ONE wouldn't connect to it without turning on the hotspot which I don't have. I was wondering if there's a way to fix this? Has anyone successfully link htc one to the media link hd?

Ditto
Same issue - can't get it to work... and I'm a computer guy! haha.
Called ATT - they were obviously clueless and at first I needed to add hotspot, after refusing they transferred me to HTC. Setup a ticket with them. I'll get back with info once they contact me.
I suspect it's something to do with ATT's customization, surprise surprise.
Same issue - HTC One "2013 M7" at&t
I got it to work by tuning on airplane mode then tuning wifi back on. But once I turn airplane mode off it no longer works.

Yup I had this problem too. I'd try to connect and that damn message would cancel out anything I did with it. I tried freezing everything AT&T related through Titanium, but that didn't fix it, so it's part of the ROM.
I flashed a ROM from the international forums (Renovate 1.0) and now I'm able to connect just fine though!

As far as I can tell everything is working perfectly. All the AT&T bloatware is gone, as smooth/smoother than stock, transparent notification shade, back button as menu enabler, etc. Only thing missing is the 4G and LTE icons in the statusbar. I still have LTE I think (haven't tested), but the icons are just different, which isn't a big deal to me. I also dirty flashed this so I didn't lose any data and I haven't encountered any negative side effects.

All the AT&T bloatware is gone, as smooth/smoother than stock, transparent notification shade, back button as menu enabler, etc. Only thing missing is the 4G and LTE icons in the statusbar. I still have LTE I think (haven't tested), but the icons are just different, which isn't a big deal to me. I also dirty flashed this so I didn't lose any data and I haven't encountered any negative side effects.

Can you link us to where you got the files and/or if there are instructions on flashing this? Also I'd like to confirm this is the HTC One, not the One X, V, S or any other phones. I'm still trying to figure out why the hell HTC would call this the "One", other than to make it impossible to search for items for this phone vs the other phones. :-\
Also have you confirmed LTE is working?
Thanks!
P.S. Still haven't heard back from HTC/ATT, but I'd just assume blast away all the bloatware from the get-go.
Same problem here. First says check the input on my TV then says I need to enable hotspot. At one point I was able to connect long enough to change the name of the media link and it even displayed what was on my phone, but then the aforementioned dialogues popup and I am forced to click ok which puts the tv back at the media links initial screen. I've tried both wireless n and g as well as my Panasonic and Vizio tvs. Version number on the media link is 5.19.103.1

Yeah this is the HTC One. No way in hell would I be flashing a One X ROM on my One. The ROM is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202696
Standard instructions for installing a ROM. Download the file (I used v1.0, not the nightlies), place it on SD card, boot into recovery, install .zip file.
- I said no when it asked to wipe my data before installation (it's an aroma installer).
Something else I just noticed, the media link is connecting to my wireless network and it displays the SSID and full signal strength. However, as soon as I try to push content to the TV, via the 3 finger swipe up, the wifi signal strength drops to nothing and it attempts to do the whole tethering nonsense. Also, "filter multicast" is in option on my router, but it is disabled. I figure I'll just keep this going since not everyone will want to flash a new ROM just to fix this.

I'm not sure when, but I'm sure HTC/AT&T will release an update to get this working properly. My Media Link is still 'pending shipment'.

been talked about over at AC
Phil says his works but he has an older firmware on the media link
I've talked to both att and htc for a couple hours and both of them are casting the blame on the other.
att tried to tell me once that i needed a hot spot plan... until i explained the technology to them and said how my One X connects just fine without a sim card in it.... and they quickly take it back
eventually they both tell me there should be an update to fix it yada yada yada
Well hopefully someone will come up with a fix before then...I don't have much confidence in them patching it unless it's pretty widespread. Not many people complaining of it yet

i can already see AT&T behind this. Turn on hotspot, accuse users of using the hotspot, remove unlimited data plans. makes total sense to me.

Does he have the mobile hotspot plan? As a tech writer I'd imagine he would.

[Q] Wi-fi cannot connect after 4.4.2 update

Guys please help
My HTC One max cannot connect on the WIFI at my home after I updated to 4.4.2. At first I can connect when I was on 4.3 then I update it and successfully installed. The problem turned out when I reset my phone and suddenly I cannot connect to my WIFI anymore, on my office it can connect and only in my house cannot. Any idea how it can be fixed?
Appreciate and thanks in advance for the help.
Try this - http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.ae/2014/02/how-to-fix-wi-fi-htc-one.html
Open Settings panel and click on the "Wi-Fi" tile
Tap on the "3 dots" menu in the upper right corner
From the list select "Wi-Fi Direct"
You will now see that your device is called "Android_ed2c". Tap on the "3 dots" menu in the upper right corner
From the list select "Rename device"
Replace the "Android_ed2c" with the "HTC One" text and hit "OK" button
Done!

Thanks for your quick response and actually I already tried that trick but it wont help. I also tried to wipe cache on the recovery but still wont help.
Is there any other possible way?

Hey mate, i remember you now! is your the j15 CID unit? we just got the update 2 days ago.. i thought this software had all the wifi issues fixed!
can you let me know your wifi config at home? i might suggest that you could try changing the wifi config in your home router at-least as a temporary fix.

yes dude we have been forum mates since our last device which is HOX+, and you're from dubai too right? anyway my Onemax is still stock and got update last 2 days ago, my hboot was been updated already and now in 4.4.2.
I can connect thru wifi on my office but in my home cannot. I been using an Etisalat Router WPA.
Actually I dont have idea to config it since it was not mine and we are just sharing by my flatmate. If ever I will root this and install custom ROM, possible to fix this problem? what ROM can you recommend running on 2.49 hboot.
Dude thank you so much actually since my last HTC butterfly i already stop rooting because i got so very busy now on my work, need also to review the rooting / s-off techniques nowadays.
Thank and Regards

ha ha yeah, thats me in the HOX+ forums lol.
oh mate, you should have s-offed before the update.. we don't have an s-off for hboot 2.49. well i think we don't have a solution for this thing with custom ROM's. been a bug somewhere, the best solution is to re-configure your router.
we ill do this mate, get in touch with me (PM/skype) over the weekend and i ill try to help you reconfigure your router while maintaining the backward compatibility of WPA so your roomy will not have a problem
the weird thing though is that i too the Etisalat router and it seems to work fine

i am confident that this will be fixed by HTC, this was the the big reason why the updates to kitkat for the original HTC One was delayed and HTC seems to have managed to fix it, atleast for the HTC One. I was thinking that this update would have fixed it and sadly not.
The original HTC one received 4.19.401.8 initially and then later on received 4.19.401.11 which fixed the WiFi issues.
i am hoping that HTC will do the same for the MAX too.
On a second thought, we could try pulling the files from that update and see if that fixes them.

how if i will wipe the data/ reset factory on the android recovery system? does it make sense as well? because i reset already to factory settings on the default settings but still it wont help. does it has any difference between the reset factory on the boot loader and the wipe data android recovery system?
a million thanks to sir pradeepvizz for reconfiguring my router and fixed the problem with my router system. sir hats off to you and appreciate your kind help. you are awesome!! now my wifi connection works well . thank you once again.
It's my pleasure mate.

well, his router was configured with only WPA, seems like the latest software was not so nice with WPA.
Set it to wpa/wpa2 and it was all good.
