Was anyone able to resolve this problem with the new xda II rom? i dont want it to disconnect.
Regards
Only solution so far is to not upgrade to the new ROM.
I've followed this path.
Who wants to reconnect GPRS every time they turn their XDA II back on?
Certainly not I.

With Spb GPRS Monitor you can do not only GPRS Connections switch off
ROM upgrade is the best solution
Dear all,
I got to know that to end the GPRS is to hold the END Talk button for about 2-3 second and it will switch off the GPRS. The icon will change and if you check by clicking the icon it will tell you that GPRS is off.
Regards,
Kueh.
I've got the ROM update from T-Mobile:
version 1.60.00WWE
radio: 1.06.01
ExtROM: 1.60.06
But I customized the ExtROM since I don't have a Read-only ExtROM. Removed most of the T-Mobile specific customizations and GPRS does stay connected after going into suspend mode. In fact, there is also a Disconnect button for GPRS and pressing the End Call button once will disconnect GPRS. I don't have to hold it down for a few seconds anymore.
However, I do have the problem where File Explorer will show the spinning circle "busy" icon non-stop after certain file management activities.

I think you may have trouble with SD slot / SD card.
Upgrade with de official Imate rom. It works and gprs doesnt disconnect after power off
OK,
In order to use the 1.60 ROM and have always on GPRS, you need to delete the TMD_AP_NL.sa.CAB file from the extended ROM and then hard reset again. I have deleted all of the TMD*.CAB files as I assumed they were T-Mobile specific and not needed for running my I-Mate (even on T-Mobile) and my GPRS connection is now always on. This particular CAB file is also responsible for the GPRS connection time indicator, which I no longer have, I guess it would show a long time.

Hey guys,
I'm using WM2005 1.50g and had some issues with Radio 1.18 initially as other ppl on the board have had. I went back to 1.17 and now have different issues.
Can anyone confirm they are experiencing the same things as me? And are there any better Radio ROMs than 1.17 and 1.18? (even older version?)
1.18 PROBLEMS:
- Flight mode takes AGES to enable
- Flight mode takes even longer to disable...
- Flight mode randomly turns off (some ppl say when a reminder occurs)
- rare GPRS connection fails with "cannot connect to [gprsapn.com]" (every few days)
1.17 PROBLEMS:
- GPRS connection fails with "cannot connect to [gprsapn.com]" very often. Using ActiveSync schedule 30 mins interval this happens every few hours. Requires either waiting over an hour for timeout or to turn on flight mode then turn off again, or of course soft-reset.
- tap on [G] in top bar, does not list GPRS connection to connect to. Just says "To connect to either the Internet or work, set up a new connection in Settings".
Any one with further info?
Cheers to all the good work ppl are putting into WM2005, I'm thinking 2003SE is dying a slow death now. 2.20-[fully]translated may never eventuate eh. These problems listed above I never had on 2003SE so I know the hardware is not faulty and the settings are fine.
I am currently using 1.17, here are my observations:
> SMS sent to me seem to be delayed (not sure if this is a provider/network issue or caused by the radio rom; Philippine Smart users with WM5.0 and using 1.17 radio rom, pls confirm...)
> Sometimes when I power up my XDA, several SMS messages (lagged?) will suddenly come in all at once
> There are also times when you can't send out an SMS message. I am sure my signal strength was full. It just doesn't leave the outbox. So I move the msg in the outbox to the drafts folder then resend it again. Then after some time, it will send but will send it in multiple copies (depending how many times you have retried). This is annoying specially if it's an urgent message. Very frustrating!!!
**I hope someone else out there can confirm my observations. Thanks!

how to change radio:
Put Radio_.nbf and Upgrade.exe in one folder and flash as normal. After flashing, just reset, don't hard reset, and get happy!
Remember that Radio stack ROM update is dangerous, fail update will make your radio unusable probably for ever. Be careful.
edit - Update: After a lot of testing - Don't install other radio that 1.17 on my roms if you are not suicidal
Old post, more info?!
hi. Sorry to bother you at this late stage, but could you explain what you mean by that statement regarding the combination of your ROMs and Radio versions that are not 1.17..?
Do you mean that your ROMs rely on version 1.17 to function correctly?
In which case, is it fair to say that whenever a new ROM is released / cooked, the chef should also mention which Radio ROM they are using also?!
Thanks for your patience
As i had this problem after having updated to the new german O2 ROM 1.25.207.2, maybe it is of help for somebody else:
The problem was that everytime i activated DirectPush on my xda Trion, it connected just fine and synched my device.
But after some time (10-30 minutes), the data connection (GPRS or UMTS, no matter) dropped and could only be re-established after a soft reset of the whole device.
I GUESS that it could be the CAB: \Extended_ROM\PP_Suspend_Resume_Null.CAB in the extended ROM of the new O2 ROM.
Judging from the filename it is setting the following registry entry to NULL.
This MAYBE causes the problem described above.
Nevertheless, the fix for me was to enter the following in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings]
"SuspendResume"="~GPRS!"
This is of course an old tweak from former Windows Mobile Versions - it works nevertheless also on the new Trion ROM - at least for me!
Has anybody else had the same experiences?
If so, maybe this is worth to put in the WIKI, as it took my some time to find this old tweak again somewhere.
Best regards - and have a good start into 2007!
Klaas.
Yes i had this in a similar way. It worked for some hours with some reconnects. But then a reconnection was not possible. So once or twice a day a reboot of the device was needed. I set the connection to alwayson to solve the reconnection problem. That works too. But I think this is now responsible for calling problems.
I have to do telephone calls twice to get a connection. Or in UMTS networks (mainly in one special location, could be an HSDPA problem) it happens, that the connection freeze. So I can't hear anything from the otherside and other way round also. I also can't close the connection.
Maybe that tweak from you is a better solution.
After having testing it for nearly a week now, all i can say is:
It works!
No disconnects, no failed reconnects, no calling problems.
Device runs even more stable as with the previous ROM - and, although this maybe is only misperception, it also runs faster!
So if you have problems with your GPRS/UMTS connections to stay connected - try this tweak!
Maybe somebody could add this to the Wiki?
Regards,
Klaas.
Ken Barwick is reporting new offical firmware release for the Vodafone UK V1605. His blog is here:
http://blogs.conchango.com/kenibarw...s_2F00_-TyTn_2900_-get_2700_s-an-upgrade.aspx
And the software is on rapidshare:
http://rapidshare.com/files/38302476/RUU_Hermes_VF_UK_2.07.161.1_6275_1.32.00.00_108_Ship.exe.html
Can any of you more techinical minded folk check it out - is it an offical upgrade? (can't find anything on the offical Vodafone websites). Too nervous to try it myself as my phone is a company phone. Anyway if someone wants to look into it and report back.
Cheers
Barney
Well I have gone ahead and done it - got too impatient to wait for someone else to check it out.
The upgrade went smoothly -
Stats as follows
After
ROM Version 2.07.161.1
ROM Date 02/06/07
Radio Version 1.32.00.00
Protocal Version 32.65.7020.09W
AKU 3.3
Now will rebuild with software I had before and test. Will keep you informed but all seems to be working ok so far.
Cheers
Barney
It's the same rom that came (installed) on my 1605. It's very good. Battery life is very good. BT on, wifi with a fair amount of use, backlight up full, 30-60 minutes of calls etc... and the battery lasts around 48 hours. Beats my T750v by around 36 hours.
Hello,
I own a sim free TYTN and use a Vodafone sim. If I update my TYTN with this ROM, will I then be able to install the iminent HTC ROM update without any problems? Will the Vodafone ROM lock my phone to their network?
Thanks.

Sounds like it is an official ROM then - can someone let an admin know to possibly update the relevent WIKI page. Wonder why Voda are using it for newer phones but haven't issued it as an update for exisiting phones?
Must say - no problems so far - all software seems to be working ok.

Since upgrading I had a problem with accessing my storage card. Appears this is a known problem with newer ROM upgrades (doesn't happen with AKU 2.x version) Have applied a reg workaround posted in other threads. If that works great if not I will go back to my previous ROM (AKU 2)
Cheers
Barney
Well the issue with my storage card is still happening therefore I suspect I will revert to my previous Vodafone firmware AKU 2.3 - Anyone know whether reverting will be a problem as I read somewhere that the bootloader or something like that will not allow you to revert to a previous rom. Anyone know if this is an issue?
Cheers
Barney
Loaded this on my v1605. (Well, actually I extracted the ROM, Ext ROM and Radio so as to continue running with Hard-SPL.)
Anyway, works fine for me. But the protocol version is actually 32.65.7020.09H (i.e. with HSDPA). I think the previous Vodafone radio had a protocol ending in W.
Also I had some problems with my storage card but I found that putting into a card reader and re-formatting as FAT32 on a Windows computer did the trick. The card was originally FAT16. (Curiously a FAT32 format on my Mac failed to fix it...)
Initial impressionis AKU 3.3 is fantastic and I'll be sticking with this ROM. New radio also seems to give me much better reception and call connection reliability, so far. I might try radio 1.38 in due course once I have a better idea of how this one is performing.

Thats weird because I just checked and mine definately has a "W" at the end not an "H". Wonder how that can be?
As for reformatting it as FAT32 - how long has that been workign for now. Seems some of these fixes like the reg fix or the FAT 32 fix work for some people and not for others

Okay, I found my first problem with this firmware: Vodafone Mail (242) voicemail icon alerts no longer work. The SMS alert doesn't seem to come through either. So no audio/vibrate alert either. D'oh!
On the other hand there is a new "VMail" Today screen plugin which does show you how many voicemails you have waiting. I guess the software is automatically processing the SMS alerts rather than treating them as normal voicemail messages. Which is an improvement (I always resented having to delete the old SMS notifications) but I'd still like to have the option of having an audio/vibrate alert for new voicemails (useful when you have call waiting disabled) as well as the spool icon which saves on Today screen space.
The protocol version thing is wierd. I definitely have HSDPA now - an "H" logo appears in place of the 3G one when I use data. Are there perhpas two variants of this ROM image circulating? I got mine from the Rapidshare link above.
Hey guys...
Sorry I was late on responding to this...
I can say that this ROM IS the official one, Vodafone are still trying to work a way on advertising and delivering you the ROM's...
On the case of the H and 3G logo's on the top bar. This is to indicate that you have HSDPA enabled coverage or 3G coverage.
I personal haven't updated to this version due to a number of reasons, so you'll have to let me know if you can make calls when the H is shown, in the States I could with the old ROM but not over here...
As for the Voice Mail, if that is the case removing them after delivery is a school boy error!!! tsk, tsk!!!

Did you allow the Ext ROM to run? I believe that VF use a cab in there to turn on the voice mail notifications (part of the service indiciation security policy)

Yes, I installed the new VF Ext ROM and allowed it to run. I might take a look at it's contents to see if I can manually run it again. (Not keen on doing a hard reset as it took me a couple of hours to reconfigure all my apps and seetings after the ROM update.)

You're right! I can't make calls when the H is shown! After several attemps H is replaced by 3G and call goes through.
Incidentally it only seems to go into HSDPA mode as and when I initiate a data connection. During the course of the connection it will often switch back to 3G and, without fail, does so after the connection is dropped (manually). Is this normal behaviour?
Previously (with the factory-provided Vodafone ROM) I didn't get an 'H', and my ROM version ended in W, implying no HSDPA. Nevertheless I did have SetHSDPA enabled using the fit4cat HTweakC and there were often times (in 3G coverage) when I couldn't make calls until after several attempts.
I definitely have the W version. Got it from rapidshare, no idea why it is different to yours. No problems with making calls. I used set hsdp to on but the icon still says 3g however downloads at 1.2mb so definitely switched on. No problems at all with voice mail icon, works completely as normal. Only issue is still with the storage card. Drives me bananas.
Cheers
Barney
I rang Vodafone about the voicemail problem. They've said they'll send me a replacement handset on Monday! Will be interesting to see what the firmware version on that one is.
Okay, this is really wierd. I tried doing a hard-reset and now the voicemail problem is gone! Plus I checked the Device Information and the Radio ROM version has changed to the 'W' version. As with Barneyabz there is no 'H' icon to indicate HSDPA but now calls can actually be made when HSDPA is enabled.
Why should the hard reset have made any difference?
And the VMail today screen plugin no longer works now that the spool icon and text alerts are working again. I really don't understand.
Okay I've done some more investigating... I flashed another Radio ROM (1.43, Protocol 'H') and found I had the same voicemail and HSDPA calls problem. I then did a hard reset and found it was fixed with the protocol (and behaviour) had changed to 'W'.
I can only assume that there is some customisation in the extended that changes this. Yet I ha dprevious tried manually running the auto-customisations from extended rom without any joy.
I might do some further digging. (Probably not just yet, however!)
I've got another question for the masses, I've search around and cant seem to find any reference to it.
Is there any way to switch GPRS off after use?
for example I use SPB Weather, which connects to update its weather report via GPRS, it logs on fine, retrieves the laters weather report, but GPRS stays on.
As it is I'm having to go into Comms Manager and turning off the Data Connection, which is a bit repetative, any solutions?
GBS-Tweak does it
I use a small program, made by Georg Graz, which works fine (WM5 and 6). You can choose how long GPRS will stay on after use.

In most ROM's there is a disconnect option in bubble. That appears when you tap on the G icon in the title bar. An other method is to keep the red hang-up phone button pressed for a second or five. GPRS will disconnect then.
great guys thanks
thats odd, when I try and install the cab, it tells me sucessful install but there's no GBS-Tweak.cpl file in my windows directory,I believe thats what gets installed. nothing in my programs or settings after a soft boot. cant chuck me your GBS-Tweak.cpl file over could you?
not to worry I ripped the cab and changed the file name of the largest file then moved it into my windows directory. that worked
Phew!
I almost started to worry.
Glad to read it works
Hi all,
Got a problem that I can't seem to find any suggestions on how to fix here on the forums.
My i-mate Jamin's wireless doesn't automatically detect wireless networks, and even when I specify the configuration manually, it won't connect either. So, there is no detection of wireless (the wifi does turn on alright), and the 'wifi on' tower icon appears, but doesn't try and search or connect.
I was starting to think this was a 100% hardware problem, but I found that if I try and create an ad-hoc network with my Jamin, other devices can see it. However, when actually trying to connect to the ad-hoc network, the Jamin still keeps trying to connect unsuccessfully.
This problem existed on WM5 (my original rom) and has still been the same on all WM6.1 roms I've used (ShadoW, iProphet etc).
Any suggestions on a software angle, or what to look for in terms of 'broken' hardware if I were to pull the device apart?
Cheers
try to update the ROM and the SPL, but be carefull
Thanks for the suggestion, but I've done both. I've got the HardSPL on my device, and I've got CloudyFa's WM 6.1 rom (and as I mentioned, I've tried about 3 other WM6 and WM6.1 roms too)..still no luck though.
It does, however, come up with the signal strength icon (like it can almost see the network) if you try and manually configure a network you know exists (eg my home network). It doesn't manage to connect to it though - just comes back and says 'unavailable'.
check if it is encrypted with WPA2. I think that version of cloudyfa is not compatible with that kind of encryption.

Definitely is only WPA here at home. Tried disabling it to no encryption, and likewise it doesn't work at my university (WPA) or at public wifi hotspots (no encryptions) or if you use WEP either. I've tried every setting on my router - and like I've mentioned, tried it in various other locations and routers...
Definitely something wrong with my device..but who knows what it is

Yep, main memory was fine. I've upgraded to the latest radio rom on that page, but still no luck.
So I've tried that one, your one was my original one (2.19.21) and my last one (2.20.21). Doesn't seem like it's a fix unfortunately..
Thanks for the help all the same. Anything else I could try?

Same problem here
Hey there, as I said befor I had the SAME EXACT PROBLEM (Vodafone S200 initial firmware - flashed several ROMS with no succes on wifi and finally decided to stay with bikertibi's 23102).
I think I somehow came across the solution (or the solution came across me) about the "when I turn on the wifi..."
It does:
1) look like its turned on as the upper icon appears and it says "on" on the display.
2) beeps the green led on the front speaker (or whatever is that)
BUT
It does not:
1) beep the radio signal (two waves) on the "wifi on" icon.
2) Find networks available
warning: my level of knowledge on PDA's is somewhere over the bottom limit so basically my interpretations of the solution will be more of that (interpretations) than it should be. So I beg for someone that knows what he's doing to try it and explain again.
Okay, after searching the unsearchable and MAKING SURE that it was DEF. NOT the USB cable, decided to give it a try to that icon "ADD NEW". That icon appears instead of the available networks, 'cause as I said my prophet wasn't detecting them.
So, I "added" a new one with ad-hoc (that is: tab on "add new", select ad-hoc, put a silly name and say yes to all) and then INSTANTLY and MAGICALLY (yes, Im THAT lamer) it all started to find networks all over the howse.
Other thing that might have been something on the process is that I was having my laptop with the wireless connected. At the first moment I connected the adhoc with the laptop but then tried to connect to another next door network with SUCCEED.
Finally, deleted the new added silly named network and it is still recognizing networks available.
PLEASE, SOMEONE THAT KNOWS ABOUT THIS, EXPLAIN IT WITH CLEAR WORDS!!!!
Hope it helps
Re:
Maybe you should check your network to see anything wrong with it...
There's nothing wrong with the network you guys. I've been having the same problem for over 3 years? Couldn't quite remember.
I STILL have my Qtek s200 with me now. Alive and kickin'. I still have a problem with my wifi. I can connect alright, and browse alright. BUT only if I'm 2 feet near my router. The reception is extremely poor 3 years back, still is extremely poor now. This is not a coincidence. I think something's wrong with our devices. Tried doing everything. cooked, uncooked, stock. original radio, ALL radio. Still the same. Same exact distance, the reception weakens after 2 feet. AND 2 FEET is way to short for WIFI browsing.
To add more that there is nothing wrong with my network at home:
1. got no password
2. I have a old Nintendo DS lite. Works Fine.
3. Got a Wii
4. Got an Old Xperia X1 (not quite old)
5. Wifey's on C905
6. Got a China Iped
7. Using an HTC HD7
8. My OLD MSI Laptop has WIFI connectivity.
9. My Sis got an Aino.
that's basically it, an everyday home WIFI activity connectivity. AS for my Prophet. Still looks black good. but still connects no good. everythng else connects fine though, beaming IR things, bluetoothing things. pretty much normal. All except WIFI.
3 years ago, I thought it was just me.
