HTC One Wifi Connection Error on Android KitKat 4.4.2

I was having a breakdown when I couldn't connect to my home wifi and I was almost on the verge of just throwing the wireless system out the window which is just cm's away. I tried rebooting everything from the phone to the wireless modem and reconfiguring everything and I mean everything. I reformatted my phone and the wireless (thank gaws for Google Backups and HTC restores!) and it still didn't work.

Going through all the so many forums and wondering what the hell is wrong with the system. I have no issues logging in to wifi at work using unifi so something is wrong with my modem but everything at home is connected to the daymn modem so the problem isn't isolated in any case. I tried force setting a ip address and dns to the system and it worked for a while be rebooting the phone the whole system went beserk again! Arghs!! Frustrated!!

So I went googling again and I stumbled onto this link by accident while still searching for issues wifi connection with htc one kitkat 4.4.2 and noticed a fix that mentions changing the name wifi-direct. what the hell is wifi direct? I'll have to read up about it laters cause it finally worked!!! Gawd and I was just over the moon!!!

Thank you to cabrams13 for your fix it though it was from a sprint forum! Goodle in some ways needs to get their act right and not be following Apple's footsteps. Please don't release buggy updates. And me for updating it without reading the "bad" things that could happen if you do update.

It was 9am in the morning when Cat decided i should get my lazy ass out of bed! lol oh wells .. i should well coz i wanna be early else its going to be hot hot hot coz the market is kinda cramp! From the picture above you can imagine a whole market the size of a 1/2 football field filled with rows of shop of this nature. plus there is poeple cooking in some of the inner stalls and hundreds and thousands of ppl ranging from locals to farang's to other local asians walking around with sweaty bodies! eeww! gosh we got out of the place after 2 hours and we barely covered 50% of the place. there is just so much to shop but mostly they are just fashion shops. yeahs i see people taking pictures in siam paragon so taht they can return home to make and sell at the local markets.. genius aye?

Rainy Saturday

day 2 today is saturday and i have nothing better to do in life but to just hang around. truthfully speaking i have absolutely no idea what happened today. lol. all i can remember is that i helped mommy and sandra dress for the special day tomorrow in the evening. yeahs graduation and sandra has to work this evening. we had dinner with sharon's parents and i was watching my baby at work. gawd i love this woman. in the afternoon, we went into the city to get contact solutions then we went to rhb bank. then we went to meet arthur for a coffee bean break. how nice isn't it? yeahs, using arthur's notebook to surf the web. from the first glance the ultimate "jealousy" feeling slowly seeping into my blood stream and into my mind. why? don't really know u would have to ask my heart. it happens when u least expected it and when u know your really in love with someone but yet you feel secure but not secure. as we got back, about an hour later sharon's parents arriv
