Hi,
Hopefully someone can help.
I got a XDA cheap and thought i'd have a tinker with it.
Now as far as i'm led to beleive it was working perfectly before i got it. The guy had been using it as his phone but wanted something smaller.
Now to the present time.
I have installed my O2(UK) PAYG sim card into it but i just can't get a signal from the machine whatsoever.
Now i contacted O2 to check if the handset was barred from the network and they have said that it wasn't.
I downloaded the latest RRU and radio stack updates from the O2 website and have installed them both successfully.
I have loaded the machine into the bootloader mode and it states that GSM is OK.
When i go into the options of the phone i can see the phone number but i can't do anything else. If i leave the phone turned for a while i eventually get a Sim card is invalid. Please contact your service provider for assistance.
Another thing i noticed was that the model numebr on the back of the XDA is NOT the same as the one given by the software. The IMEI numbers do match however.
Any one have any ideas??
Just to let you know i updated the radio stack to 6.24 and its now working perfectly.
Yee haa.
Mine does not get a signal
Is there anychance of posting the update you found
Pocket PC Wallaby PW10A1
ARM SA1110
O2 NETWORK
Still no signal at all on mine any help would be nice UK O2 network thanks in advance
Don´t know if it is the same.....

plz provide a link for good radio
i have qtek 1010
I am also facing the same problem,, lolz I checked every thing but its still a big mess can any one suggest wat to do :?? ?
Hi,
I am with Vodafone New Zealand and it's weird enough that I can't receive any phone calls when I upgraded my radio rom to 1.43 or later.
I have tried 1.43, 1.46, 1.47, 1.48.... they just don't work.
However 1.40 and 1.41 work fine. I have been wanting to go for later versions since I need stronger signal.
I don't think I missed any steps during the radio upgrade process as I was following through the right instruction and I could flash it successfully with 1.40 and 1.41.
Are they anybody having the similar problem? Will there be any fixes or workaround to get the later vesions of radio to work?
I have tried this on the official Dopod WM6 and some Black roms with SPL2.10.
Please help!! Cheers =)
define "don't work"
Sorry about being not very clear. I was trying to say that I cannot not receive any incoming calls. And also the caller cannot hear the outgoing signal tones when ringing my phone The calls are just not coming through...
I may have run into a similar problem...
Using anything higher than 1.43, I wasn't getting all of my incoming calls. It may have to do with calls being denied when I have an active data connection... Either way, 1.47 and 1.48 both seem to present this problem for me.
I encountered that same problem in China mainland,
The solution is to update a new SIM from your operator,
Maybe you will spend a little money on it,
Most of people resolved that problem with this solution,
I will update my SIM at the price of RMB30,
But now I think no need because I am using 1.41,
It works well in China mainland,
Thers is no 3G sinagal in China mainland,
I think if you are in 2G, 2.5G or 2.75G network you can't tell the difference between radio 1.41, 1.43, 1.47 and 1.48.
that's all.

Anybody try this method?
I pose the same problem here in Indonesia,nothing above 1.41 seems to work,the recipient couldnt hear my voice.Im reverting back to 1.41,hopefully everything will be fine.
Fantastic! Upgrading the sim card to the latest one solved my problem! Thanks for all you advices! Hope others can solve their issues! I am on 1.47 now and it's all good! cheers!!

I'm in China now, and just change from my old Nokia 6100 and the old SIM card voltage etc. is not suitable for new devices.
This worked for my HTC P3600i - Thanks so much for the tip.

Out of interest - did this die (ie No GSM) while on Radio 1.54 or AFTER moving from 1.54 to another radio? Sounds suspiciously like sudden NO-GSM radio death syndrome stikes some more phones... see this thread about the problem and this thread about the warning that 1.54.xx radios appear to be a common factor in radio bricks in the UK, Germany and Netherlands that suddenly appear without warning.
Also, people please remember that higher radio versions do not necessarily mean "stronger" signals on your network (they don't magic up signals or make variable coverage better - they just handle the signal you DO have a little differently) and can in some circumstances introduce more issues than they fix. Finding a radio that works well with your network and your everyday location is better than constantly keeping the version numbers high
Last week I updated my Radio to 1.48.
A few days ago I started doing tests by calling my PDA from my home number (testing the callerID function of Slide2Unlock) and realized that almost all calls would ring and then go to voicemail without my mobile ringing. Looking into it more and talking to people that call me on a regular basis, I realized that I am getting a lot of missed calls on my phone.
I reverted back to 1.47 and did the same tests with the same number of missed calls.
Going back to 1.43, my mobile now rings on the first ring, every time.
Seems like 1.43 is the better Radio for Rogers (Toronto)
I don't think it is only Rogers.
I was running 1.47 for a while ... a lot of network disconnects, so I thought the upgrade to 1.48 would make it better ... it made it worse, WAY worse. I am now back on 1.43 with no problems at all
1.48 perfect for me with FIDO. (or rogers if you want to be technical). It is not the Radio. I have been testing various ROMs. Some work better than others with the radios. I find those ROMs what were cooked with the PTT removed has issues.....
If I use ROMs that were originally without the PTT, I experience no issues what so ever with 1.48.
maybe you can get walshieu to give you 1.49 ?

Hello Landyman,
As you know there is a problem in SA on all the radio ROM versions.
Leaf are aware of it as it is network related.
They will shortly be releasing a WM5 and WM6 version with a new radio specific to our network.
At present it is on test with the networks.

You mentioned it in another thread as well, IIRC.
From my experience, with our current situation, 1.43 works best (for me in any case)
I used 1.48 for about a week, had problems with reestablishing connections and some missed calls. Switched back to 1.47 with no issues. The Radio that rogers came out with for there system is 1.42, unfortunatly there is no update for this Radio until there is an update from Rogers. The only way to get it is to buy the phone from Rogers. And before it is asked it can't be dumped.
Same problem,

Would you recommend 1.47? I used it for a short while and it seemed OK. Did not test it as thoroughly as 1.48.
BTW, thank you for yor Rogers settings cab. Just found it yesterday and it saved me a lot of manual setting up.
As much as I am sorry others were having this problem, I'm glad I'm not the only one! After trying both 1.47 and 1.48 and missing calls to the point that my wife thought I was ignoring her, I finally went back to 1.43 and have been golden. Soooo.... you're not the only one.

I too missed about 6 calls today with 1.47, I am going back to 1.43, That Radio with Rogers has always been reliable.
Yes.
3.57a seems to be no issue for me.

In Montreal area,I tried 1.47 few days ago, often i had to dial twice to make a call, and the earpiece volume is lower than others. then change to 1.43, i missed many calls, but phone was ON, with reception, but all calls went to VM. then i changed it back to 1.41 yesterday. everything back to what a PHONE should be. sometimes, simpler is better...
With Fido using a 8525 with BB connect in Calgary. I was until recently, using the last wm5 ATT ROM which worked with BB connect. Missed calls with 1.48, so went back to 1.43. Now with vp3g wm6 BB connect version, decided to try 1.48 and the same missed calls issue. Back to 1.43 and everything is fine.
I noted this problem back on the 12th of July and was told by numerous members of this community I was crazy, "the radio's wouldn't have been released if it had this problem".

Now there's several threads popping up with users finally noticing this problem.. One person has suggested those suffering with this issue have older SIM cards - which I do - so maybe this is the problem? (Don't see how, but whatever, worth noting the age of my card.)
My Sim is at least 3 years old now... I'll play with a newer sim when I get a chance and report back.
I also had issues with 1.48 missing calls and losing signal for long periods of time while driving through bad coverage areas. Switched back to 1.40.30.00 and all is well now, receive all calls and when i drive through bad coverage area quickly reacquires signal

My SIM card is about 4 months old - definitely not an issue with an old card.
I wish I had noticed your earlier posts on the topic, I would never have upgraded to 1.47 or 1.48 if I had.
Do you have one of the "newer" HSDPA SIMs? I'm not sure if much has changed in the SIMs from older gen to newer gen - but I haven't noticed the dropped call issue with 1.48 and Schaps latest ROM.

Yes, I have the new HSDPA sim. Have not tried 1.48 with Schaps latest (installed it today) but am hessitant to upgrade the radio in case it does not work. I am back at work now and cannot afford any missed calls.
UPDATE: Installed 1.48 and tested - even though my phone immediately detected a 3G network (does not do it with 1.43) upon calling myself, 2 out of the 3 calls resulted in a missed call. Reverting back to 1.43.
UPDATE2: Reverted back to 1.43 and tested. My phone did not immediately register the network as 3G but all calls (3) rang to my phone on first ring.

Thank you. Seems OK so far... How come this is only a GSM upgrade?
*EDIT* I don't notice any difference in reception between 1.50, 1.48, and 1.40.30... I'll have to see about battery differences.
Thanks pof
Flashed it and will see how it goes.

I believe it means that it is just radio? At least I got UMTS reception as well.

Can't receive calls,
China mainland.
Here in the Netherlands this version is working perfect. Get nice HSDPA connection. Wifi is working with WPA security.
All calls come in, only not when HSDPA connection is active. Had this problem also with previous versions 1.47 and earlier.
Hope it's also working fine for you too....
Anyone in Toronto try this yet? Have been having problems with radio's after 1.43 and missed calls with Rogers. Hopefully 1.50 resolves this issue.
I will not be able to test this myself until late today and will post results once done.
Quick question: Anyone know the origin of this release? Did it come from a specific carrier, as most do?
Thanks.

Same thing here in Italy with TIM phone company.
I think that the HDSPA problem is not a radio software fault, if i try to call my Tytn while i am on an HDSPA session, the tone from the phone company is not "free" or "busy", it is the one they use when a number is wrong or the line is absent or broken.
I will check the battery usage too.

Silly question, If it is a GSM only upgrade, it wouldnt effect HDSPA?
Greetings Friends,
I have been using a HTC P3400( Old Gene) for last 2 years. As a member here of the Gene forum( although an infrequent one) i have been flashing the various ROMs made my many talented people here. Please bear with me if this post seems inordinately long but i want to share complete details of the problem i am facing.
My peculiar problem started when i flashed my Gene with Krazy_about_technology's ROM SumitsProUsers6.5_v2_OldGene.exe. After a couple of days of using it, my Gene would perenially be searching the network to connect to it, without any success. After numerous resets, hard resets, running ghost images etc and unable to resolve the problem, i thought this was an issue with my Vodafone SIM. I got it replaced and the problem still persisted. Post that i flashed the ROM with numerous other ROMs( Mostly Krazys, I find them very useful- Thanks Krazy for sharing your beautiful works), but the problem would just not resolve. The phone would always show searching a network to connect. I could not use SMS, EDGE or any other feature of my service provider.
The issue threw up another interesting find when i was experimenting with various other GSM SIMs. I used an Airtel SIM and the Gene would work good. Then i tried with a BPL Mobile SIM and it works just as good. But the minute i insert a Vodafone SIM, mine or others, it would indicate searching a network, I would not be able to make or receive calls or sms or access any other feature.
I took the handset to a Vodafone center and even they were flummoxed. They couldnt find a solution. They used my SIM card on different handsets and it works.
They thought my handset was somehow only disabling/ blocking only a Vodafone network. They advised me to get in touch with HTC helpline.
I called them and after lenghty discussions, they confirmed this was the first time they had come across such an issue. They asked me to visit their nearest service center. I did . The result was the same. Even the service centre was flummoxed and asked me to see what would happen if i downgraded to WM5.
I did just that with a HTC stock WM5 ROM provided by Vukile in the forums. and gradually upgraded to Krazy's WM 6.1 v 2.5
The problem still persists. I have been asked to visit the service centre once they run some tests or do some research on the problem themselves on a WM 6.1 ROM
In the meantime, I am currently using my Gene with an Airtel SIM and its working perfectly. It just wont accept a Vodafone network. I am using my Vodafone SIM in a Nokia handset.
Could it be an issue with the Radio ROM version? If so, why did it work with other ROMs and still works with Airtel and BPL mobile SIMs?
Is it really true that somehow, my Gene is only blocking Vodafone networks???
Needless to add, i am not a newbie to the world of Flashing and have learnt my way through friends in the forum like Munrus, Ababrekar, Vukile, NJackal, Chayn( He used to make some great ROMs) etc for the past 2 years.
This problem has completely perplexed me and all the techies i know.
I am posting this here in the hope that some brainy chaps might just be able to figure this out.
Thanks for reading the post and for any remedy you can send my way.
Rest assured, i will be keeping this post updated if the service centre is able to come up with a solution.
Cheers!

Radio 2.71.90
Yes, there definately seems to be some issue with your Radio ROM. Its an older version anyways, mine is 2.79.90. Radio upgrading is simple, but finding the radio or dumping it from a phone is something i dont know.
I think the problem your phone is having is with one type of freqeuncy. In India, 3 frequencies are available : GSM900, GSM1800, and GSM1900. Most network use GSM1800 in most places and GSM900 in some places While Vodafone uses GSM900 in most places. I guess that is the reason why Vodafone sims are giving problem to you.
Two more things you can try are : If possible, using it in national roaming mode in some other state and Using some other number Vodafone sim. Try if it works. The site given below will give you an idea of what networks use what frequencies where :

Otherwise best is to let service center guys figure it out. They may replace the radio module completly or upgrade the Radio ROM, or Who knows, the whole phone itself

Yes, You seem to be right. Vodafone at GSM900 in Mumbai seems the odd man out. Maybe the Radio ROM is not working for GSM 900 and hence affecting only Vodafone connections.
Still does it explain why the same Radio ROM worked for all this while over so many flashes and failed to connect to one particular frequency suddenly?
I have been trying to get a Radio ROM dump to 2.79.90 to upgrade. No luck yet.
My phone is out of warranty a long time ago. So no chance of getting the whole phone replaced without burning my pockets!!!
Thanks for your inputs Krazy!

Hi I dont think this is a problem with vodafone in mumbai...
Because I am also in mumbai using the vodafone service and also having the same (02.71.90) version of radio.
I think you have made any mistakes while upgrading...
Still check with upgrading Radio ... Let us know the status
Bhushan,
Yes , you may be right. Maybe i did make some mistake while flashing 6.5
None of the links have any Radio ROMs and i havent specifically done any Radio ROM upgrade myself. The only time the Radio ROM changed was when i ran Olipro HSPL.
Has anyone tried out railwayplatform's method?
How many of us are actually using the 2.71.90 version? If I am the only one facing this problem, then most probably the cause would be a bad flashing or M/B issue.
Cheers!
loop mobile a.k.a bpl mobile work on 900mhz so i dont think you have problem with 900mhz network as per my infomation your mobile is more then two year old so i think it time to buy new ..
Ofcourse its old!
But Loop and Airtel work flawlessly still. Its just Vodafone that doesnt.So no real reason why to invest in a new handset now.
Besides Its slowdown time guys!!!
There is a 99% chance there is nothing wrong with the handset.
So i am very keen to see if this problem can be resolved.
Cheers!
Hmm.. this is strange, really strange. Have you tried some other Vodafone sim too? Maybe its just with that particular number? I am just guessing now.
Krazy,
Yes the problem persists for all Vodafone SIMs( mine as well as others).
Have tried it with Vodafone SIMs of myself, my wife's, 3 colleagues at work and 3 at the Vodafone care shop.
This problem has been exihibited for all Vodafone SIMs.
Got a thought from a buddy - All this while i have been flashing with my SIM inside the phone. Does this have anything to do with the problem?
Cheers!
I dont think so...

i dont think so flashing with the SIM inside the phone is causing the problem...and may be you need to visit a HTC service center and ask them to flash an official wm 5 with an updated radio rom and see if it works...just a suggestion...Hope this helps....Good luck mate...
Just a thought
I have flashed my poor Gene and now departed Vox how many times I don't know, and everytime the SIM was inside. So that wont be issue.
Just a thought, are you using Vodafone Prepaid? Because Vodafone, atleast in Kolkata still provide 16 K SIMs and earlier when I had a Vodafone Prepaid number, my Vox would reboot between calls or while browsing the contacts / msgs. This was told to me by the tech support at a nearby Vodafone store that it IS a issue with all sophisticated sets (actually its sort of forcing you to go for a post paid where you will get a 32 K SIM ). So, if you are a prepaid customer, then can you try some one's post paid vodafone SIM and let us know?
Sorry! Duplicate post.
Yes 16 K SIM might be an issue because 16 K Airtel SIM is also creating problems like call drops, people call u but u dont get a notification etc.
I read the same on HTC touch orkut forum.
same prob here
dear friends,
i have also faced same problem, but a little differently.
I am a idea, punjab (formerly SPICE) customer. while roaming in ghaziabad / kale khan/ okhla I found that my phone lost network. it kept on searching on and on.i tried hard and soft resets also. if i did it manually, it wont register, and by any means it gets registered to a network, then 100% sure, call wont make. two sims showed this problem, one- idea and vodafone. but the problem was found while roaming only. i didnt report this in forum as i didnt take it seriously. but seeing this post, i decided to report it to forum so that it can be rectified. its just a feedback, not a complaint.
To Addicted2xda,
I am using a Vodafone Postpaid SIM. All the Vodafone SIMs i tried were post paid SIMs. At Vodafone Care, the guys there tried with a dummy SIM. The problem persisted for all SIMs.
This is really giving me sleepless nights.
Any way i can delete all the data on the phone including all ROMs, like bring it to a pristine state and then start with HSPL and flash a new ROM?? Maybe this may correct the problem - Just shooting in the dark.
To Mehra, Thanks for your feedback.
To HTCP3400,
I had a HTC STock WM5 ROM provided by Vukile. I tried it also. But the stock ROM didnt change the Radio ROM version and the problem existed with it too.
Cheers!
Guys, do you feel this could happen because of the SPL change? I dont know whether SPL is responsibile for sim activities or not, bu I will definately search for it. Apart from that, there is nothing we have changed in the phone. I dont know, but these kind of things never happened with me. Ya one or two times, my phone lost network at some places and keep searching for it even though other phones were working fine, but on soft reset or just turning the radio on and off from comm manager worked everytime. Anyways, lets see waht can be done.
Got this from htc touch orkut community

the problem has nothing to do with ur OS. Its linked with the Radio ROM.
Try diff versions of the Radio ROM which would go well with your network. For instance 3.21.90 rom solves the call drop issue on chennai airtel prepaid to an extent. So you ave gotta experiment with diff versions of radio rom n freeze on the one which would be better for ur network.
Hey vaibhav, can you post the Radio Roms that you have got. That would be good in case when one of us changes his network and gets this problem. Coz I searched for them but couldn''t find em anywhere.
