Hi

I have problems with locale and wlan. So I have ask the suport.

Here the question and the answer.

--------------------------

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in Locale!

I apologize for the inconvenience although we are unfortunately unable to support modified ROMs. The problem is that this is a bug in the ROM, rather than in Locale. Locale just happens to tickle this particular issue in the ROM. Please revert to the standard HTC Hero ROM to resolve this issue.

Please let me know if I can help you further!

Thanks and have a great day,

Carter

I think your problem is with the 'Radio', Try flashing a new radio and then try.

Maybe I have a fix for you! I had the same problem - I was rebooting twice a day, because I lost my wifi.

The problem is (I think): the Sense wifi widget, this one-click thing.

locale tries to check if there are known wifi spots around and activates wifi for 1-2 seconds. The widgets is to slow to reflect the on/off changes.

I removed the widget and now it worked in the last 2 days.

Try this. If you can fix it, too, maybe we should tell the developers... :-)

Hi

nice work. After one reboot and 1 day of testing no wlan hang on disable.

So what do you mean witch developer must we contact. If no problem with locale and the normal rom so Paul has a problem with the modaco rom.

By the way I use a backen rom.

Thanks and best regards

But the problem is the wifi widget - so maybe the locale developer needs to add more time while checking connections.

Or Paul needs to fix something in the MCR. I donßt know - but for now the problem is solved :-)

Just to let you know this isn't unique to Locale, I installed Setting Profiles (a cheaper alternative to Locale) and get the same problem - with and without the WiFi toggle widget - there is something wrong with the wifi implementation...

As Android is a variant of Linux - does anybody know if the WiFi chipset can be reset from the shell?

EDIT: I think the commands should be;

ifconfig tiwlan0 down (to take the adaptor down)

ifconfig tiwlan0 up (to bring it back up again)

...but it doesn't appear to do anything.

Yeah, same here... :-(

After removing the HTC wifi widget it was getting better, but every other day or so my wifi still stucks...

Any further idea? Shall we contact the programmer again?

I have ask the locale suport how often locale use the wifi. 5-10 minutes. The frequency based on locale "thinks" something intresting is happend :-)

So my wifi hangs also once a day. To turn flymode on / off dosen't help. And there is no solution if I don't use the wlan function from locale. Locale turn the wifi on/off for testing the location.

If only modaco rom users have the problem, whats the different between the htc and modaco rom on wifi ??

Paul have you any solution ???

Just FYI, I am running Locale 1.0.7 AND the HTC WiFi widget, and don't experience any hanging.

I have only once experienced a WiFi hang, when I manually tried to disable the WiFi using the widget. I often do this, and it has only hung once, and that was on an older ROM.

So I don't know what causes the problem.

I'm running MCR3.2b5

Hi

after update some progs, not locale, I have the same problem. :) It is stupid and I have no solution. In the moment the akku goes empty if wlan hangs. So I can't use locale. It is not a problem with the wlan widget. Anyone the same problem ?

Add me. I use Locale and MCR 3.2 and have to reboot several times a day. Locale support told me also, this is a problem with the custom ROM, but I can't go back to stock ROM, as I don't have access to payed apps without root access.

This I very annoying and frustrating, but no solution at the moment. Anyone tried with an Eclair based MCR?
