HTC Hero :: Unable To Start WiFi - Intermittent Error

Nov 24, 2009

I seem to have an intermittent error when trying to start WiFi. Mostly (>95%) of the time I get "unable to start WiFi". Occasionally it works but this is rare and usually when it has been switched off for a few days. The problem occurs when I try to start via the wi-fi widget or via the MenuSettingsWireless controls path. I'm reluctant to do a factory reset unless I really have no other option.

HTC Hero
on Vodafone UK
Firmware version 1.5
Build# 2.73.405.5

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Unable To Start Wifi/Bluetooth

Oct 18, 2010

I'm getting this problem where I can connect to WiFi the first time with no problem but once I disconnect and the phone sleeps, it can't connect to the network again and says "Unable to Start WiFi", I can't even get to Wireless settings because it can't start the WiFi.

It's the same story with Bluetooth. It'll work once.

If I turn the phone off and then on again, it will work once more but only ONCE before doing the same thing again.

Android : Get "unable To Start Wifi" / Need To Setup A Special User?

Oct 9, 2009

I have just installed Donut version 1.6 on my HTC Dream. The install went smoothly. But when I try to start my WiFi I get the "unable to start wifi" message. Never had a problem in 1.5. I see wpa_supplicant doesn't have access to others, I tried changing the permissions of the directories and wpa_supplicant.conf file to 777 but they keep getting set back again so that other doesn't have access. Do I need to set up a special user?

HTC Magic :: "Unable To Start WiFi"

Feb 2, 2010

I bought a used unlocked Vodafone HTC Magic off of ebay, and got it setup with my Local GSM just fine. I can make calls, and receive texts no problem. Since I dont want a Data plan, I plan on relying on wifi for gmail services and whatnot. My problem is this. I cant get on wifi. When I go to settings>wireless controls> Wifi at the top says "Unable to start Wi-Fi" And no matter how many times I click it, it just wont start. When I go into Wi-Fi settings, "Add Wi-Fi network" is grayed out, and I cant add one. When I press the menu button while in that menu and select "Scan" It doesnt do anything, just goes away. Any ideas guys? I really want to get this phone working to its full potential.

HTC Legend :: Unable To Set Up Gmail Account

May 8, 2010

I successfully set up a couple of gmail accounts when I first got my phone and now wish to add a third. However the phone now says it is unable to establish a working data connection. This is definitely not the case. It comes up with this before checking the account credentials so it is not a password issue.

HTC Legend :: Unable To Send Files Via Bluetooth

Aug 10, 2010

I cannot get files to transfer via bluetooth, either to another phone or to my car kit (ie/ contact lists, v cards). when i called for help i was told 1 - check with your network provider. (uhm, bluetooth doesn't utilize the network...) 2- the upgrade to 2.1 has caused many of the products to be unable to sync to other devices (well, the speaker works, i just can't transfer files. oh, that is odd - not a helpful reply) and 3 - try a factory reset. (how about, no. every time i've tried that nothing is fixed and i'm back to square one and having to reload all of my programs and data).it's been determined that my settings are correct. has anyone else found this issue and been able to overcome it?

HTC Legend :: Inconsistent Wifi

May 10, 2010

I recently bought a HTC Legend off ebay since it's not available in Australia but I'm having trouble with the wifi on my home network. It works on occasion but fails most of the time. Sometimes it won't connect at all and just says "unsuccessful" whereas other times it might tell me it's trying to obtain an ip address and then not work.

I've got two computers connected to my wifi as well so it's not my actual connection. Is there such thing as devices competing for wifi? because the few times it's worked was when I was changing my computer's wifi but it sometimes doesn't work even with my computer off!

HTC Wildfire :: Unable To Obtain IP Address TP Link Router / Fix It

Sep 26, 2010

Just got my wildfire, running android 2.1 and cannot obtain an IP address from my TP Link TD W8920G router. log in the password etc and it just keeps getting stuck in a loop saying 'obtaining IP address', then unsuccessful.

I've tried manually adding the phone's MAC address to the router configure, and have assigned an IP address to the phone, following advice on other forums. I've upgraded the router's firmware, and I've rebooted the router. I've attempted to 'use static IP' but truth be told i don't really know what that means.

HTC Legend :: Phone Doesn't Automatically Go Back To 3G / 2G After Disconnecting From Wifi / Fix It?

Jun 10, 2010

I've only just noticed an issue that after disconnecting from wifi my phone doesn't automatically go back to 3G/2G.
I have to turn the wifi back on and when it can't find one only then does it decide to connect to 3G/2G.
Didn't have this issue before and I'm thinking the latest update (1.31.405.5) has something to do with it.

Anybody else having similar issues?
BTW I'm on the vodafone UK network.

Android :: Manually Type Email Address - Unable To Select Contacts

Oct 24, 2010

Anywho, I want to go into Gmail, compose a new email, and be able to select contacts (or even have the app provide a look-ahead list based on what I type). This is exactly how the Gmail app for my Blackberry 8830 worked so I don't understand why there seems to be less functionality no an Android phone. In any case, it seems that no matter what, all I can do is manually type in email addresses. Also, I know I can go into Contacts (People) and select a person's email. This brings up a menu option to email using Gmail or my Exchange email account. This in't good enough because all I can do is open a new email to one person this way. What if I want to email 10 people!?

General :: Unable To Select Alternate FROM Address In Stock EMAIL Application

Nov 21, 2012

I've got a Nexus S running 4.0.4 and the emulator running 4.1.2. I'm experiencing the exact same thing on both:

I have two exchange accounts configured in the EMAIL application. When I view the unified inbox and compose a new email, I am unable to select the non-default FROM address (clicking the FROM address does nothing). In order to send an email from the non-default, I have to enter the inbox for that account THEN compose a new email - requires several more clicks than necessary.

I have asked several friends and some say they do have this option - however they are all on carrier customized roms.

HTC Droid Eris :: Wifi - IP Address Issue

Feb 28, 2010

When I try to connect my Eris to my wifi network, it always says Unsuccessful when trying to obtain an ip address. But if I enable to to use a static ip, it connects fine. Its annoying for me though, because if I'm out and want to connect to a different wifi, I have to disable the static ip. I'd like to get it so I don't have to use a static ip address at my house. Any ideas?

Does anyone know what ip address it tries to obtain when static isn't on? The two computers on my network are using .100 and .104. I figured that my phone would pick one not in use, but maybe it's set on trying to get one of those?

I've tried resetting my router...

General :: WiFi Ever Changing Mac Address (last 6 Digits)

Jun 6, 2013

solve the issue on the android ICS Wifi Mac address , here are the problems

1) NVRAM warning Err 0x10

2) Wifi always disconnect after able to obtain IP and browse internet a few seconds

3) Noticed that the MAC address last 6 digits are always changing, like 00:08:22:XX:XX:XX after I enable/disable the wifi

4) IPLINK SHOW ETH0 -- error: Can't find device 'eth0' , but WLAN0 is present

5) NetCfg command shows only Lo, wlan0, tunl0,sit0,ip6tnl0,ccmni0,ccmni1,ccmni2. but the Eth0 is not present?

Those problems originally found at the original rom. I have downloaded another similar rom but still not okay.

I downloaded the MIUI rom but only updates the system.img, recovery.img, boot.img. other image files were the same. The WIFI errors are still there.
