Hey, I had the exact same problem. I was able to connect earlier using WIFI and was able to browse the web.
I have HTC dream android developer phone and had upgraded it to 1.6. Everything was working fine unitl one fine day when wifi decided to show me "unable to to start wifi". after much ordeal, I was able to get it to start working again by restoring factory default and that did the trick and it started working again. I tried different kind of things like downgrading (radio and recovery) to androind 1.1 but was able to do so for some reason (I still donot know the reason for this). However since I got the wifi to enable again I think I might have to be satisfied with it :) On Oct 9, 12:08 pm, Ryck <[email protected]> wrote: > I have just installed Donut version 1.6 on my HTC Dream.
