Help Wifi not working after 2.2 update

mine is the same, im thinking of trying to make a new gold card. and it goes bad on the root of the created gold card
 
Android Version 2.2
Baseband version 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
Kernel version
2.6.32.15-gf9c0527
htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Build number
2.10.404.2 CL226611 release-keys

Software number
2.10.405.2

Someone help me. I've spent best part of the day making 2 goldcards, ensuring I've got files just named update.zip & not update.zip.zip & still my Desire refuses to install software.

My Desire was a TMobile one, which I unlocked & debranded, installed Froyo OTA, got notice of an update the other day, since when my Wifi hasn't worked just giving "error" message.

This is doing my tits in.

Make sure the file is called update.zip and not update.zip.zip, basically if you have renamed it on your pc you just need to name it update the .zip will be added automatically when you put it on your sd card.

No idea what was going wrong before, but tried again this morning & it updated fine. I presume I was being a muppet at some stage!

Cheers for the help.

Just a boost from the idiot (me) who got a bigger SD card and forgot to make it a gold card :eek:
 
Hi,

I`ve just joined,only had my phone a week. Just thought I`d mention that I have the same problem with WIFI after froyo OTA on Thursday. My phone is factory unlocked and unbranded,I haven`t done anything to it. I rung HTC to complain about the WIFI and they said they are aware of it and are working on a fix,they will ring or email me as soon as its done.
Hope this is of some help.

no,I got the phone on contract from the internet,its on 3 but i didnt use 3 direct. it has no markings on outside and no operator specific software inside. it works on all networks. i have not debranded or unlocked. the phone was classed as a refurbished phone as it may have been sent out to somebody under the 7 day approval period. it came in a box marked "3 refurbished handset" with a sticker saying htc desire.
 
Very odd, so its pretty likely that yours is a stock normal phone then! I dont think 3 started with branding till fairly recently... Hmmm. Cheers for info, its interesting to hear!

I phoned htc again today,they are still looking into the problem and a lot of people have phoned them about it. Also noticed my bluetooth is not working either.
 
Hi
First post here but used the forum a few weeks to unbrand from T-Mobile and upgrade to Froyo. :)

Everything was going great until this morning I got a notification that an update was available. So off I went and installed this OTA. I didn't notice any issues until a few hours later I noticed no wi-fi. I couldn't switch it on - getting' Error' in settings. So I've ended up here.

I believed my SD was a GoldCard used previously to un-brand and install Froyo but after reading the above I created a new one and carried out the steps as detailed above (several times now). No issues installing update.zip but still no wi-fi.

My info is:

Android Version: 2.2
Baseband: 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
Kernel: 2.6.32.15-gf9c0527 htc-kernel@and18-2 #1
Build: 2.10.405.2 CL226611 release-keys
Software: 2.10.405.2
Browser: WebKit 3.1

Any help on getting wifi again would be most appreciated.

Sometimes certain sd cards refuse to work as a gold card,try a different card or the original one maybe and try again.
 
I did the OTA update today with a goldcard in the phone and now have the wifi problem (it just says error) even after doing a factory reset. My goldcard is my SD card and is the same one I used to 'debrand' my phone just a few weeks ago so I know it works.
 
it says the update failed the check ... looked closer and saw that the phone said it could not find /sdcard/update.zip..... down loaded this 2 times now any advice have a desire with no wifi atm the boot loader seems to be .92.0001

tried it with 2 dif sd cards also when i go into recovery it the phone says cannont find e:/cache/recovery/command ..... is that relevent?

im quite happy to try another rom if anyone can reccomend one ... id just like my wifi back

"e:/cache/recovery/command .. " is not relevant I had same but updated without problem, WiFi is ok now.
 
ummmmm just found the error of my ways .... silly windows puts the file extention on automaticly so i had update.zip.zip

sorted now wifi back working :)
 
hey guys new to this. I updated my Desire this morning and had the ERROR prob. I assume the phone update via SD card is working as I have followed instructions and it has updated but wi-fi ain't working. Maybe there is something I am doing very wrong.
I am using the SD card that came with phone.
I formatted the card and just dropped the UPDATE file (unzipped) into the SD card using windows 7. I made sure it isn't zip zip.
then followed instructions.
Does the SD/Gold card has to have a special folder in it?
got phone from amazon uk as a sim free version but when called HTC they said it is on T-Mob. It doesnt have a sim lock as I tried a virgin sim and use my o2 sim
