I have upgraded and downgraded many times, never with a failure. I just upgraded to PDAVIET 4.0003. Went without a hitch but now my phone will not stay on the network, also it will every few minutes complain that there is no sim card. Card is fine as tested in my other phones. The interesting part is it functions fine on any 2.2 ROM.
Tried Smart1's True's and all PDAVIET, no WM6 allows the phone to work.
Cold resets don't resolve the issue. Is there something that could have gotten corrupted that is part of the phone OS and not in the ROM's?
I am at a loss to troubleshoot this issue.
Thanks for reading, any advice/suggestions is appreciated.
ron1n, what is the network protocol for your provider?
Do you use pap or chap, the setting choice in CommManager?
Is network set for auto in phone dialog?
In your connection settings, do you use Server assigned ip address or auto?
Since i have upgraded to PDAviet i have almost the same problem.
After soft-resetting my device no gsm connection is found.
The only solution is to go into phone option and start the manual search.
If it's connected it works without any problems.
Strange thing....I also tested a few gsm roms but always the same experience.

Reflash Radio ROM (2.47.21 or 2.69.21 will work)
To reply to all of your suggestions. I have tried 5 different radio roms, none will see the phone network (GSM not GPRS) for more than a few seconds with a weak signal, then they fail and either go to flight mode or say that the SIM is missing. To reiterate, this was working fine up until yesterday with a few different WM6 ROM's. Coincidentally, the rear speaker failed at the same time. I resolved that issue, but the lack of phone service persists, although all AKU 2.2 ROM's work fine. Very curious....

It is CHAP, although I am referring to the phone service not wireless GPRS. My network is configured for auto, although if I switch to manual (due to the lack of consistent conntection), it will not be able to see any networks, except briefly and intermittently.

WM6 Sim Card issues [solution, use radio rom 2.19.21]
I've been using WM6 for awhile now, I've tried SMART1.3, PDAVIET 4.0.0.01, 4.0.0.0.3,4.0.0.0.3a and finally 4.0.0.0.4 .. but yesterday i tried to flash back to SMART1.3. After downgrading and upgrading, i got unknown sim status ! since yesterday , I've change my Radio Rom and OS ( I've tried almost everything ) but i can't get my phone to work in WM6 !! when i flash back to wm5 ( any AKU 2.2 version ) i have no problem with phone or GSM but as soon as I upgrade to WM6, I got unkown Sim status ... anybody , have any Ideas ?!!
Same Problem !
I have exactly the same problem !! it's not from radio ROM or OS !! I've tried 3 different version of radio ROM, and almost every single WM6 OS that is out there ! my phone stop responding yesterday after i changed my OS from PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.4 to SMART1.3 ! since then I've tried everything, but I can't get the phone to work in any WM6 OS! although WM5 (any version of it) is okay !

Did it used to work?
Yes , it used to work ! I've been using WM6 for more than 2 weeks with no problem! recently I upgrade my os to PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.4, but I decide to change the OS back to SMART 1.3, after I changed it back, i got the error "Unknown SIM card , without the pin you can call emergency calls only" I tried my pin and PUK , but none works ! So i changed the OS to WM5 again. I've tried couple of different version of WM5 (JESTER, NVID) and I've found the phone works perfectly in wm5 !! as I said before I tried re-flashing my Radio ROM, but it didn't help !! i still can't get my phone to work in WM6 ! any of Pocket PC gurus, have any suggestion ?
S200 Gone Wacko with WM6 and I don't know why
Hello people
Okay so here is the situation, since about last week I have been using PDAViet 4.0.0.3 on my Qtek S200
Now I love this ROM..so much so that I spoon with it at night...um...crap lol Its fast and lite...but something went terribly terribly wrong yesterday
So around 1pm I disconnect my phone from my computer, and notice a "X" in the data connection arrows...okay I thought nothing of it. I go to a restaurant, get a phone call from my brother, and talk, and everything is fine. From there it went bonkers...it kept on trying to connect a GSM signal, and then would go out to no service...it would keep on trying and trying, and bogging down my phone....
So finally i got it stablize (with an EDGE data signal i thought) and of course a voice signal and went on my merry 2 hour drive back home to Montreal.
When I got to Montreal and was waiting in the dead moving traffic jam, I wanted to check the Windies cricket score on BBC, so I take out my phone and try to make a data connection. But again the X showed...i rebooted my phone and signal about 10 or 20 times, and finally got something...however by the time that happend I had arrived at home so i went and used my computer.
The GSM signal stayed, but I dont know if I had a data connection. I then went to a funeral, turned off my radio entirely, and then when I turn it back on...ooooooooo no signal...it would get 2 bars, and then drop, and then 2 bars "E" symbol, and then drop.
So from then on, i went nuts, opened up the back, took out the battery, checked the sim, installed another sim to make sure..and by now it went even worse..first INVALID SIM...then it went to MISSING SIM...urge to kill rising!
I finally said F it, and hard resetted my phone...but i noticed something upon the screen calibration..."NOTIFICATION ERROR...cannot find calnot.exe". After hard resetting and such, the problem still showed...
This morning, after leaving it overnight, it was still misbehaving...so I went to took it back down to the floating NVID file found here on XDA developers...and oddly enough...no more calnot.exe error...the radio signal is strong, and i get a data connection...So i tried to then upgrade to the new PDAViet 4.0.0.4s ROM, but again...calnot.exe error...so finally i am stuck at the NVID ROM...oy!
So I searched here on XDA Developers and on google...now while people have said they get the calnot.exe error, they also get this reglog.dll (or something to that effect) error as well...me on the other hand am only getting that calnot.exe error, which would seem to be the root of my problem.
What can I do fix this, and get back to the speedy 4.0.0.3 ROM (man I love that ROM)
Phone info:
ipl: 2.09
spl: 2.20.0000 (so I guess that my Qtek S200 is a G3 model)
radio: 02.47.21 (i even moved up to 02.69.21)
os: 2.20.7.34
so i really appreciate the help guys...take care...

Flash again the WM5 NoVid Rom,hard reset and if you come up with the same error,hard reset again... Tell me what happens... If it works flash PDAViet 4.0.0.0.3a...
Holy S*** I have the same Problem for like two weeks!!
Man , I have exactly the same problem !!! exactly !! i had PDaviet 4.0.0.0.4 and one day I got the same thing, No signal , then after i hard reset, the Calnot error ! then Hard reset again, and this time I got the replog error !
I get "Unknown Sim Card!" or "Unknow Sim Card status enter your pin" whenever I install WM6! My phone works perfectly in Wm5 though !!
I flashed radio rom in WM6, I also tried different sim Cards , but none works !I can not get the phone to work in wm6!
By the way, NVID is not a good rom to stay with.

Sometimes it would be calnot.exe notification error, or replog.dll, or now clocknot.exe error...so far only NVID works

In a way I am glad you are having the same problem...so I know I am not a nut lol (and nor am I alone)...but of course its not good to relish in someones downfall, so of course it is also a bad thing eh..
What ROM would you suggest then? NVID seems alright, but I don't know of any others out there (well somewhat)...thanks!
I wish we knew why it happened at first place!
for wm5, if you want a clean, fast and reliable Rom, try Jesterz Rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284578
you might want to re flash the start-up image to HTC logo... you can find the .cap in the same thread.. I also updated the radio rom too, you can find it in prophet wiki.
Jesterz Rom is nice cause you don't have to uninstall anything, it's really clean and stable. it is by far better than NVID, but don't ask why cause i have to ramble a lot.
Oh by the way if you found out why this happened to us .. let me know

any suggestions ?
Strange, however, can you post which radio version you have when you switch roms ? it could a radio rom problem....
Hi!
long time viewer first time poster.
I have G4 CID LOCKED Cingular 8125 with mfrazzz's Crossbow Reloaded 1.7.1 I have wizard love Rom as Base.
I really tried hard to update (I guess it is really a downgrade) my original Radio from 02.25.11 to 2.19.11 but no matter what I do, it failed.
I tried with every romupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe i could find but I get the same result everytime.
ON PC: I get 260 Error (tried in two machines same error message)
and
On my Wizard: stuck in this 3 colored screen. I see 3 color screen with "RUU" in right upper corner and "USB" on left bottom with IPL/SPL version showing in red If i press reset button, it will boot back to mobile windows fine.
Can anybody help me?
My rest device info:
ROM Version: 2.18.0.0 WWE
ROM date:2/14/06
IPL/SPL: 2.25.0001
GSM:02.25.11
Protocol version? 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version: faria V5.0
My Downgrade
All I did was use the rom upgrade utility from the "wizard love rom" (the one that is in Italian) and the T-mobile radio rom listed in the Wiki.
Worked like a charm!
thanks for the reply..
but of course i tried that already.
i think error 260 is communication related issue. PC communicate perfectly with ActiveSync.. but when it reboot for the flashing to occur,it just get stucked as if pc is not communicating with the wizard.
is downgrade to 2.19.11 really worthy?

Is your device actually booting up? If so, just download one of the radio ONLY roms. It won't matter whether you have a CID locked phone or not and the radio ONLY rom will not touch the IPL/SPL.
Having said that, is there a reason why you want to downgrade to 2.19? Are you having missed calls issues?
Hi titus666,
I am having the same ROM and missed call issues too.Even when i am on a full coverage area my wizard signals seems to dropping,coming back,dropping ....
What could be the probalem .Any recommended Radio ROMS's.
Probably you read this already

A little bit off regarding your initial post but here´s good feedback on how both radios behave.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312834
I've had some problems as well.
I used the tool that came in the download to downgrade to 2.19 (I am having missed calls problem) and it won't.
I'm using a Windows Vista and already did the whole thing to update drivers with the one given on the forum over here, yet, everytime I run the thing it crashes and then I have to go through it all over again.
Its like the driver just doesn't work anymore, even though I have tried "re-updating" it to the one that I downloaded here, unlike the real Roms this one just won't go throguh and wait for the 3 colored screen to come up, just freezes before.
im in serious problem now.. i can't send and receive sms.. i tried black shadow and faria.. it will just work for few minutes or an hour and after that my messages are stuck in outbox.. my radio version is 1.43.. i downgraded step by step just to check if its working fine.. right now im using 1.40 but still the same problem.. my bootloader is 2.10 - Hard-SPL-V7
any solution guys.. this is the saddest party of my life..

HI,
Maybe you could check your sms setting from your operator.
Or, you can do this;
(Settings)->(Phone)->(Services)->(Voice mail and Text Messages)->Press Get Settings.
That's it.
Try it and report back.

Hey mate...
Recently, i got the same problem (also post a new thread here) with the black pro and LVSW version...
After investigate, i found the it is the problem of o2 SMS plus, this software totally conflict with wm6 right the moment.
For your case, i suggest you try to hardreset your device first.
Don't install any software, test it for a few days to see any problem occur again.
If no, try to install software one by one and test it again.
Good luck

Hi again,
I am not sure abut this ROM thing because I use Dutty's v2 ROM and stay with it.
Maybe Netmon's suggestion could be used for you.
If you haven't install anything yet in your PDA yet after a hard reset, you could try these few tests;
a) send sms to your friends
b) ask them to reply your sms
c) send sms to yourself
d) leave the machine up and running for more than 1 hour ( charge it ).
e) repeat the same test (a,b & c) above and see the result.
f) if OK, then your third party software could be the culprit.
Mind telling us what did you install? (for us to indentify and/or see if the problem persist if we install the same as yours)
Regards,
morisa
im using Dopod 838 Pro.. the only appz i have is:
* winsbar light
* tdyscheme changer
* TCPMP with addons
* group sms
* sunnysoft vcard
* SOTI pocket controller pro
* JGUI myCalendar
* mental motions MultiPad
* audio notes
for the meantime those are the appz installed..
btw if you say hardreset that means like format right? isn't it formatted when you upgrade the ROM?..

Hi again,
Yess, hard reset=format and when we upgrade our ROM, the machine will be hard-reset too.
The above softwares are add-ons installed after the format right?
Just for a test and for a few days, if you could live with it, do not install anything besides restoring your contacts after the ROM upgrade or downgrade. During the period, test your sms capability and observe any peculiar things with it.
Shall you want to extend your test and to comform your believe that it is due to ROM's issue, kindly revert to your Dopod's WM5 ROM which is downloadable in Dopod website. Then do the same test for the sms.
Shall it be OK then it could be the ROM and if not, it might be something else.
Like myself, I don't have the software as listed by you above installed in my machine and I am using Dopod 838 pro too. I don't have any problem with sms so far
Hopefully you can carry on with the test while I try to see if the problem happens to me if I install the above software like you. Give me a few days for the result.

morisa

hi morisa! yesterday i downgrade all the stuff back to WM5.. and everything is working smoothly..
i got a sd card installed with previous programs.. but of course when i upgrade everything is erased, the only remaining folder left is Program Files.. do you think this might be one of the cause or should i format my sd card too..
any update guys?

HI again,
Glad that you manage to get it work under WM5.
Well, not much could be done with the "Program Files" folder in your SD card. You can keep it if you want but make a clean format of the SD cards is highly advisable.
Do not install anything that has interaction with today screen inside the SD card. Always install in memory.
Regarding my test as I said in my previous post, I only install the prog which concerns SMS and no problem so far. (install in memory)
I even go the extend of installing "SMS Scheduler" and Vijay's "Flash SMS", and the result is OK, no problem so far.
Thus, I uninstall O2sms+, Group sms etc which I don't use and back to my old PDA state. No problem too. So, it could be the ROM or the Radio ROM.
By the way, I am using 1.43 Radio ROM.
Regards,
morisa
right now im trying Schaps WM6 3.30.. i deleted everything in my SD card.. didnt installed any apps yet.. all default.. ill keep you posted.. i hope this time it would be all good..
I downgraded my radio from from 1.43.00.00 to 1.38.00.10. It seems like my problem is gone now. Haven't had a text messaging issue in the past 36 hours. Hopefully it stays that way.
wasup people!
after upgrading to Schap's WM6 3.30c.. SMS send/receive is working good (its been 10hrs and no further problems) im using SPL 2.10 Olipro and my Radio is 1.41
the only application i installed since the upgrade is GroupSMS.
i hope there would be no problems..
im now using Schap's WM6 3.30c and everything is going fine.. no more problems so far.. i just format my SD card and everything and installed the new ROM.. i guess when i was upgrading there is a tick box that i should select which says "its hard SPL?" which i didn't select.. and probably that cause the problem.. tho im not sure about it..
link / cab
could someone provide a link or cab for the o2sms plus app you are using on your wm6 roms? at least the version.
UGH
I got the same problem here... this only started happening when I upgraded to Schaps latest rom (4.0 rc). I'm getting concerned that there doesn't appear to be a true or known fix for this problem
