i think it is somthing with the ROM ver, since i downgrade to JPJPG i am having the same problem, you can install all kind of 3rd party that will search for WiFi every xx minutes, personaly i think it is neccesary, i do agree it is annoying.

my ROM is original, i just rooted my SGS thats it, never used Custom ROM

problem with T MOBLE WING
I have the same problem , I even did try connect to my home Wifi it show connected ,but doesn't open to the website I want to ,can some one help,thanks
I had the same problem, I installed batterystatus, and checked the option to disable gprs when wlan is on, and now it works fine...
You don't need batterystatus to do this (the software just does it automatically for you), you can do it by yourself by disabling "data connection" in the connection manager whenever you turn on the wifi radio
-Hope it helps
t-mobile wing wifi problems
I had a similar problem with my wing. It would connect to unsecured WIFI networks and work flawlessly but when I connect to a secured network it would work for about 1 min then just hang while downloading a web page. If you device is doing this send it back to t-mobile and get a new one. This is what I had to do. hopefully you have a warranty.
I just got my T-Mobile Wing and I think I have the same problem. It just doesn't want to work with my WPA-secured Wi-Fi. When I switch WPA off, it works fine.
Did anyone else had a problem like this?
Called T-Mobile, they have nothing like that in their knowledge base.
I got this problem when i installed HTC 10 Button comm manager. I uninstalled it and WiFi works again.
Hope this helps
i have somewht of a similar problem, since ive had my Wing i have been unable to use my wi-fi, when i turn it on it says connected and shows me the lil meter and everythin but when i try browsing or downloadin it just hangs and does nothing until i turn the wi-fi off...i have no clue why i have learned to live without it but would appreciate any help...thanks
Try this it work for me. Whenever you want to connect to secure wpa do this before you make the connection
Start > Setting > Connections > Wifi Status > Power Mode > Move the slide "Best Performance"
Your wing should be able to connect to secure wpa.
Hope this help.

Make sure you disconnect from edge/gprs before you try to surf after you are connected to the wifi.

how exactly do i do this? is it what was explained about in the battery status menu and check marking the box 'disable proxy for wi-fi'...?
You can click on the little E or G on top and click on Disconnect.

i dont know how i ever survived without wi-fi....WOW....thank u
Thank Ayodeji13. He answered this in the 5th post. ^_^ But, yea, I've done the same thing before and was lucky to realize where the problem was coming from. Unfortunately, it didn't help me with the crappy wifi signal that my Wizard provided me. The wing, on the other hand, is MUCH better at this.

Thanks mate... I too was having issues connecting to wifi... its kind of strange... it was connecting to my home network for sometime but later it suddenly stopped. It will connect to other networks but not to my secured network. Today I tried the setting you mentioned and surprisingly my phone connected to my home network... I wonder why because this setting should improve the performance and not the connectivity itself... Thanks again
you can add me to the list of people with wifi issues. I can't connect to my wireless router and I'm stand two feet away from it. It shows up but when I try to connect it says unavailable. I've done everything from turning the data off, to setting the power to best performance but it won't connect.
I need help... Whenever I connect it says I'm connected but actually I'm not. Yesterday I could view directions using live search but couldnt browse the web, not i cant do both. it gets stuck on the locating... part of loading the website. sometimes it gets to opening but the KB bar doesnt come up and it gives me some 500 internal error, or page doesn't exist. I cant do the best performance thing because im using touch it 2.3 rom and i dont have wifi status anymore.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THAT STUF?!! URGH! I dont even have msn!
But anyways, can someone help me connect to the internet?...
TRY THIS
I have the same problem, i i manage to fix my wifi connectivity by editing the registry.....try this at your own risk.....but swear it works for me. i used total commander to edit registry and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > HTC > Comm Manager >
then you will see folders 0 - 8 or some only have 0 - 7 ,delete folders 6 and up ........ ( I JUST MOVE MINE instead of DELETING IT< I MOVE IT TO STORAGE CARD SO IF SOMETHIN GOFF UP I CAN JUST PUT IT BACK )....
SOFT RESET then try turn your wifi ON , connect to your network.... til me if this works for u guys...
i think the value of those folders are bum hehehehe thats why it wont connect......., after connecting to your wifi secured or not , it will create another folder and add those folders back by default...but this time the good settings lolz its worth a try !
Ok this is realy frustrating. My wing was getting on my secured home network and npw it dose not. I read all the post and have tried some (the ones that I could understand). I dont have the option under battery status to disable gspr or gpsr. And my system is vista 64 so total commder dosen seem to work for reg settings(edits). I can conect to unsecure networks but I cant to my hone (secure) network. I have in the past but it dsent ssem to work now?

Unfortunately, I've always had the same problem with my secured network with both my MDA(HTC WIZARD) and my Wing(HTC Herald). Do you have Dlink router, by any chance?
Originally change the wifi settings, removing 4X mode and placing the TX rate to 11mb and not 22mb fixed the problem but the problem is back (but so is the 22mbps apparently..)
Just changed it back to 11mbps and it worked!!!
i have my network runnin off a linksys wireless b router model befw1154..and yea i tried changin them settins and still nothing like i said it still sees it and tries to connect but wont ....
I've got a similar problem. Secured network at home (Dlink 614+), won't connect. It'll go from connecting to unavailable, then available again. I've narrowed it down to the router (I think). Every time I change a setting on the router, it reboots itself. Directly after the reboot, I can connect with my wing and stay connected. As soon as I disconnect and try to reconnect, it won't do it. So my only fix so far is to reboot the router when I get home and keep the wifi on.
One time, I went out to get a haircut and connected to a wifi network around there, then as I came home, it was able to connect. Maybe it has to do with the wing "refreshing" a cache or something.
I haven't tried the 11mbps thing posted above. I'll have to try it when I get home. Hopefully that'll fix it, because constant rebooting of the router or finding another wifi spot isn't a real solution for me. I hope the wing will get a software upgrade or something that'll make it more compatible with more routers.
I have the same 614+, so it might work for you. I mean, it still happens but not as much as it did before.

[Q] Fixing Wi-fi without reformatting?

Hey, in the last few weeks I've run into a very annoying bug on my phone. Wi-fi turns itself off after about 2 minutes. It doesn't actually "turn itself off" in the phone - and by that I mean that the wifi icon is still there, and I can see the signal strength, but the internet won't work.
In order to fix it, I have to turn the wifi off and then on again.
I've tried using the Wifi Fixer application, but it doesn't help. It can't seem to detect when I lose my internet connection.
I've also troubleshooted it, checking that it occurs on different routers/types of networks.
I'm sure it's a problem with my phone, but I dont really want to reformat my phone until Froyo comes (since I don't want to have to install all my apps twice).
Is there any solution to this? ;z
I'm on stock rom, JF3, with OCLF.
I have the same problem with my phone. My Wi-Fi at home works just fine, but when I go to my brother's house, I seem to occasionally lose internet connection even though it shows that it's still connected to the Wi-Fi. I have stock Bell ROM with OCLF by RyanZA. Oh, and to fix it I simply turn Wi-Fi off, and then on, and it starts working again.
Bump :x
Anyone have a solution?

Wi-Fi Not Working (Nookie Froyo)

My wifi keeps cycling between on and off on my Nook. Sometimes it will stay on, and appear like it wants to connect to my wifi, but all it does is get stuck at the "obtaining ip address" portion of the process.
What do I need to do to remedy this?
I found the same problem, I can say that the Froya rom is almost perfect for me, except the problem that the WIFI lost and cyclical on and off. I tried many ways recomeended but no luck.
If someone can help to solve this please !!!
I had this problem before, and it was because of an improper flash. I skipped a step of wiping data and cache before applying the flash.
Settings -> Date & Time -> UNCHECK Automatic
that solved most of the problem for me.. its still unreliable, but atleast it doesnt get stuck in a loop anymore.
Maybe you should delete all networks registered on your phone. in case you have chosen to remember some WiFi networks in the past.
Then turn off/on your wifi network

If you did, try to forget all the remembered networks and then search again.

try to clear cache and dalvik cache in xrecovery
Wifi dying after a period of time.
I have a similar issue with my X8.
The Wifi works fine for a while (longest so far has been about a month) and then it just stops working. It picks up no signal what so ever from anywhere (my home router, which is about a metre away, is currently "Not in Range").
I've tried multiple versions of Android 2.2 from XDA and am now running 2.3 from the following link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109563
The only way i've found to bring back the Wifi is to do a FULL restore (system, data, cache, everything). I've done abt 6 restores since i started using custom ROM's about 4 months back and am in the situation where i have to do another one now. This is getting EXTREMELY irritating and I would very much appreciate it if someone could give me a solution for this.
Also, I have a lot of trouble connecting to the internet at my uni. This has been an issue from the very beginning on the X8, even before using custom ROMs. It connects the first time and then refuses to connect a second time. To connect again i have to forget the connection and start again. I don't know to describe the Wifi type but the instructions for connecting to it are in the following link http://uqconnect.net/helpdesk/wireless/eduroam/android/.
Thanks in advance
have this problem too. when i was on GDXv007 was fine then when it update to v008 i cant connect to wifi anymore.just keeps saying "obtaining ip addrees" then reboots. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!
