Best radio ROM for WM2k5 - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Because of BT headset/handsfree profile issues, someone tells me which is the best radio ROM to use with WM2k5?
1.18?
I'm actually using 1.14
Thanks
Fernando Correia

Mine is 1.18 and everything is ok. MW 05 is working like a charm for me.

I used 1.18 on WM5 and it worked fine for me. Some persons went back to 1.17 for some reason, I don't know what reasons. I reversed back to WM2003 SE.

Radio version 1.17 has more compatibility with the turning on/off of flight mode in WM5.0.
I am using 1.17 now and so far have not encountered any problems regarding the radio version. Try it! You can revert back to 1.14 anyway
Goodluck

i use 1.08

i currently use 1.18 and it has some serious issues under buzzmobile2005. the tricky thing is, you would not recognize the issues as long as you do not have a dual sim adapter in your device. i have one with two sim cards both pin protected. whenever i soft-reset the device and put in the pin for a certain sim card everything looks fine so far. but after a while taking a look on my device i see that the sim card has been switched an i am booked into my alternative network. i mean it is annoying but no disaster for me. but there is one issue making me feeling uncertain: switching the sim card should result in asking for the alternative sim's pin code. but it skips this step. should not the sim card prevent such access when pin code is activated?
another issue is that after switching flight mode off and on again it often happens that the phone does not switch on. i check the power settings and on the wireless page i see that the phone box is not ticked. i tick it and then tap ok. but whenever i take a look on the settings page the box still remains unticked. it is not always like this, sometimes it works.
maybe this all has to do with the using of a dual sim adapter. switching to 1.17 did not solve the problem, so i switched back to 1.18.
can someone using a dual sim adapter and buzzmobile2005 acknowledge this strange behavior. maybe i am the only one having these issues. thanks a lot.

Avoiding ppc 2003 bugs

Dear all,
I have installed ppc 2003 and tested its stability for 3 days. The followings are what I found bugged in this rom version.
1. For Some times the ppc won't turn on again after the screen turns off or after pushing unit turn-off button. I had to soft reset the unit to make it running again. This has happened to me quite a few times after I sync with my PC
2. My sd card was totally erased for several times, even the 'detect digital camera' option in the picture program had been deactivated.
So far, I only have these 2 inconsistencies. And after some trials here and there, here is the possibility of the error causes
1. Ppc 2003 doesn't work with window 98 even though the activesync 3.7 does. So try avoid sync through pc with ms 98.
2. I think that due to some incompatibility between the xda hardware and the inherent options in the ppc 2003 (my best guess is the bluetooth and digital cam option) that encompasses the functionality of sd slot, sometimes we'll find data in sd card being erased w/o warnings. I have also found out that programs that act itself as driver b/w the xda and other external hardware such as the external keyboard driver can also cause such a sd formatting problem.
Can anyone confirm my findouts? Any comments are extremely welcomed
Please post your ROM, RS and Protocol Versions.
dear,
I just happened to have my sd card erased again, pls help why?
rom version 4.00.01 eng
radio ver 4.21.00

please help ou
Dear all,
I think my conclusion to the screenoff problem was not valid since I still have my screen blackouts even though I am using window xp to sync. do you, mates at xda-developers, have any suggestion on how to get around the problem. Thanks
Sounds like its a Power problem to me!
So check your power settings.
OK, This is my first post. MW2003 seems to be must better that PPC2002 except for one thing. HOW DO I TURN MY XDA ON. the only way I have found so far is a soft-reset.
When the XDA screen goes blank it really isn't off because anybody calling get the ringing tone, unfortunately the phone does not ring so I cannot answer.

Dear,
I later experienced some correlation between the system (Screen) blanks and the installation of some software that was supposed to be used in ppc 2002 (for me the program is "True Fax"). Each time after my installation of True Fax, the system simply goes blank and I have to do the soft reset to uninstall such program to revitalize the system again. Hope this does some help to you. And if you have found some similarities, please confirm my findout. Thanks
It also may help if one removes the SIM Tool Kit shortcut (stk.ink) from the Startup folder. This shortcut is also know to bring up a blank screen. So remove the shortcut and soft reset. HTH
Qman is correct. For some reason the simtoolkit launches a program called HTC SAT on startup which produces a blank screen. Doesn't appear to harm anything but I removed the link anyway and all is still well. I have detect digital unchecked in the pictures program and my sd card was erased as well anyway. Any other thoughts on this?

Ken,
Like you, I think I have founfd the cause of my Power On problem. Looks like it was caused by a the GPRS traffic monitor supplied on the o2 XDA CD. I belive the progam was called "GPRS Traffic Counter"

This one is still a mystery to me, but I’m starting to wonder if it has something to do with certain apps. being installed on the SD card.
So lets do this, if this has happened to you can you post what apps you had installed on your SD cards at time of occurrence. Then maybe we can get a better fix on whats actually causing it. What you think!
For me I had:
Pocket Plus (which has since been removed)
SPB GPRS Monitor
PocketBIble
Resco Explorer
HPC Notes & Spell
Cash Organizer
ListPro
CodeWallet
HanDBase
I had installed:
pockeplus (since removed via hard reset):to RAM
spb gprs monitor:to RAM
that was it. no apps installed to the sd card at that time, just some text files and wavs to see if I would have an sd card erasure.
This morning I installed to the sd card:
Adobe Reader
Repligo
Lygea pocket 12c
fonix voicedial with us voice pack
Franklin Covey Plan Plus-Daily Record, Prioritized Tasks, and Activesync app
Illium eWallet
Agenda Fusion 5 w/icon pack
Sprite Pocket Backup
In RAM I have installed:
Spb GPRS monitor
MUTX RingtoneX
Isn't collaboration GREAT?

Dear all,
Since I have had countless SD card reformats, I wonder whether you guys have noticed the same thing?. Every time when the system starts to wipe out your sd card, there are iterations of sd card boots. That is the system will locate your same sd card more than once and acknowledges it as multiple different sd cards. This is noticable in the "Memory" program -> SD Card Menu (under settings) which shows multiple sd cards (i.e. storage card, storage card2, storage card3 and so on) being inserted at the time even when only one single sd card is in place. I think the secret to this is to try to stop that from happening. ANd since I'm a newbie about techno thing, I wonder whether it has something to do with the registry or it just systematcally occurs at random (suggest anything, anyone?)
For the time being, I have to lock my sd card unless when installation times come. BTW, valheru & Qman, I have not installed any of the programs you have in your sd cards (besides acrobat)
Hmmmm. Call me Val, it's easier. I have not had the numerous sd card iterations you have mentioned. Knock on wood, no erasure yet though I only had one. Locking the sd card is a good idea but I agree it is a pain. Do you have the detect digital camera option in the pictures program unchecked? I have heard this does and does not work but since the xda doesnt support sdio you might as well uncheck it. Also, which version are your running?
I think the sd card detection is built into the system much like PnP so I am unsure if it can be disabled. If it is detecting the card over and over, there may be a power issue or perhaps some dust, etc. has come into contact with the pins of the card thereby intermittently blocking the signal? Might want to check to be sure....
Dear Val,
I have had the digital option unchecked since the very beginning and nothing helps. It seems that the erasure comes at random, but I just happened to witness the iterations by accident.
BTW, my version is

Dear,
BTW again, is your ppc 2003 the official one for SX56, mine is not
P.S Really wish I could go back to using my 3.17 rom (the disadv far outpace the adv ones, at least for mine)
Nope, unofficial, back yard kitchen brew by Jeff's ROMKitchen.
Dear Val and others,
Just when I thought I could go to sleep, my SD card was erased again for the ......th time (I lost my counting somewhere along 10s). Up to now, I do not know what causes it. BUT I DO KNOW how to check whether your SD Cards are secure from erasures. If you have the programme called "PHM Device Manager" just go to the Storage Port and check the Device ID under it. It is supposed to be pre-assigned and stay intact. If after a while of launching programs and/or soft-reseting the unit, the Device ID (SD Port ID) numbers up, quickly lock your sd card before everything is erased. If anyone happens to know what causes changing SD Port ID, please let me know. It looks to me as if the XDA is constantly examining the SD slot and each time it does, it recognizes the same SD card as different ones.
I hope yours are still intact after such checkup cos if not..........???
I have also found out that the numbering up in Device ID (in Standard Disk Drive, DSK1) is 100% subject to how many times I have turn on/off the screen. Seems like the SD Card iteration is ignited each time the screen is turned off and on. ANyone, any clue to why?
Interesting. I'll have to check on that. I honestly never noticed the correlation. I have observed this site for a few months and I now making it a point to participate daily!

Phone not available after HardReset

Hi,
I have switched aa sim in my XDA, worked with it for a day and then hardreseted the device. Since then, the phone doesn't work! It seems there is no reception (an exclemation mark near the antana icon) and the SIM manager does not load as well.
I'm with WM2003 4.00.01, Radio 4.21.00.
Did anyone ever experianced something like that?

Isn't you SIM-card sved with a PIN-Code????
What happend when you press the "green" button on your device?
What's in the Display of the Telephone Application?
Stefan
My SIM card have no PIN number, and in any way where can I inout it?
The phone app just pops up empty, buty I can't make any calls - it seems it's only trying to dial (cought up in "Dailing...").
It's really kind of starnge - as if it does not recognize my SIM.

My XDA 1 phone has stopped working - no signal

My XDA 1 phone has stopped working - no signal - can't phone - or internet or anything. It still connects to the emergency police number though - everything else works fine on the XDA. (It has ppc mobile 2002 on it.) Any ideas how to fix it?
Does this sometimes happen?
Is it the end of my device?
I have used the SIM card from my "non-working" xda1 in another phone and it works. I have used a SIM card from another phone which I know works, in my ."non-working" xda1 and it won't work .
I have set my xda1 to manual configeration, and it finds networks, it says available networks: KPN and Libertel, (I am in Holland). So I guess there must be a signal to and from my xda1. (Is that right?)
It doesn't give "telfort" as an available network. which is my simcard network. The xda1 says it is o2 uk all the time. Is it possible it still thinks I'm in the Uk and doesn't switch over to Dutch networks?
I'm in over my head with this...what should I do?.
I live in Holland - it worked fine. I took it to England - it worked fine - it switched over to the English phone networks etc. I bought it back to Holland and it stopped working!
I have just had a message on my xda1 saying: "unable to read settings from the net work."
The little mushroom icon at the top of screen never changes. There is no activity there.. . which I guess means there is no signal.
Does this mean the phone part of my xda1 is broken? If so, can it be mended?
a lot of questions I know!
Go to settings/phone and choose "network", when your required network shows choose it. It should do this automatically if "auto" is chosen.
I have the same Problem with my XDA1 and auto/manual configuration does not solve the problem. My SIM Card works with other mobil phones, too.
I upgraded the phone with the new o2 Radiostack, but still no change.
I tried the SpecialEdition Rom, bis the auto configuration did not work, so I got no signal, because I was not abel to set the phone to o2_de-loop.
Then, I upgraded the Windows to the new version available at o2. Sitll no change.
So, I'm going to disassamble the phone to check some soldering. I think this is some king of contactproblem, because sometimes - after serval resets - the XDA comes up with a working phone! But this only works until the next time I need to press the reset button.
You may have any ideas?
Greetings,
Timo
I'm not able to disassamble the Wallaby
The XDA must be closed with some kind of clip and I don't want to damage the hull of this beautyful and smooth device...
Greetings...

[Update 6] Today plugin for dual sim holders

Here it is a Today Screen plugin that allows the display of the IMSI code (or a custom label for it) of the current active Sim. Works for all dual Sim solutions allowing to always know which is the SIM in use.
From my personal experience I prefer the use of simple power on-off solutions because they consume the same amount of energy of a normal SIM. The digital solutions provide a nice STK application but the resource consumption is not acceptable (especially for HTC Hermes). This plugin solve the main problem of the simple power on off Dual Sim holders: knowing which is the active Sim.
Configure your custom labels in the Today option dialog for the specific item (Dual SIM Today).
Update:
Added menu to switch with a single click between the sim (works only for power on off adapter)
Added the operator name associated to the SIM
Some bugs fixed
Update 1:
Added configuration parameter to:
Activate the display of operator name
Define the Sim switch mode: traditionally with a menu or directly with a tap & hold on the today screen (with the stylus or the scroll wheel)
Some bugs fixed
Update 2:
Added an option to disable the switch functionality
Added the capabilty to open the option dialog directly from the today screen
Update 3:
Direct access to the menu with the action button (or scroll wheel) without menu gesture
Fixed bug in the highlight of the plugin
Update 4:
Fixed bugs in the management of option dialog
Update 5:
Show the last switch time
Update 6:
Fixed operator name redraw
@forum users; help me in setting the priority of the enancements; currently they:
. support for Stk adapter
. support for dialin adapter
. check sim (periodically verify that the right sim is active)
. automatic switch based on specific rules
...
If the tool is useful for you feel free to donate something

This is sweet! Thanks. Now just need to find a dual sim adapter that is compatible with 3G.
Plugin is brilliant. Ideal for me would be to include it in plugin existing for the Today. I do not understand of programming but I have found this in wiki:

Hi guys
just thought I'd let you know
I've downloaded you sim today program and ran on my hermes but now cant get my phone to work!!
It hangs when trying to load the today screen - I've had to hard reset and start from scratch
As I said NOT HAPPY - beware you may get same probs

I really do not understand your question. Could you please explain it better? The plugin already shows his interface in the Today screen and can be configured in the standard way. Do you want the plugin show the operator name or some other information?

JPW, I have your same configuration in term of base software (except for Hermes, mine is an Hermes 200) and it works. Did you tried the plugin immediatly after the reset?
In order to understand what happened can you write details of the problem? when does the hermes hang? during installation, configuration, etc? What other software do you have?
Thanks and sorry for the problem.
Is it specific to Hermes somehow, or should it work on any WM5 device?
Can it be used with multi-SIM SIM cards (like 16-in-one), or it is somehow intended only for (some?) dual-SIM adapters?

It is not related to Hermes. It uses standard Windows Mobile APIs. I tested it on Hermes and WM6 (Black 2.0 and 2.5) but it should work on every devices with WM 2003 and up.
The basic plugin should also works for every multi sim card. The functionality to switch the active card is currently working only for power "on off" dual sim card (I'm developing a version that works also for digital dual sim holder).

Hello, Pelargonium
I enclose a photo to you with which I consider that he would be ideal. To integrate the DualSIm Plugin in the Wireless Plugin, since space is saved.
I have a SIMORE GOLD that works perfectly with the TYTN, although the change I have it to do with menu of own dualsim. The one of plugin does not work to me. I hope to help but that to bother, and again, pardon by my english.

Hi, I think you're product is great, just what I've been looking for BUT... I'm afraid to say it doesn't quite work. I have an early dual sim adaptor (cut) that requires the phone to be turned off/on to switch. I'm running it on a Orange M600 (prophet) with Jesterz 2.20 rom. Your switcher switches the phone off OK and then back on... BUT it doesn't register on the network.. just gives me a "!" next to the little signal icon. It displays the right number for the sim and all just doesn't fully re-establish the signal. I have also loaded a WM5 version of WIVIT sim switcher (from this group) but as it doesn't allow me to define my own number it's no good. However, when I have WIVIT loaded and on screen, YOUR product works fine.
I would rather just use your product. Any clues on how I might be able to fix this?
Thanks
Dave.

@qdavhen, I tested the plugin only on Hermes with different WM6 Rom, because I don't have other devices. let me test it on the WM5 sdk emulator and I'll give you a feedback.
Thanks Pelargonium,
I've found that after running your program if I go into phone options and select "Find Network" then the phone starts again. I've been doing some digging around and *think* it might have something to do with needing to wait longer between switching off and then back on again... hope this helps.

Fixed and updated the first post. I've also added the name of the current operator. Please try it and give me a feedback.
Thanks
Pelargonium.
Pelargonium,
Works a treat! Thanks! A couple of small changes that would make this perfect... you have added the operator (eg. O2-UK - 123456789) I would suggest removing the minus sign AFTER the operator and just leave a space. Also rather than tapping and holding and then selecting "switch sim" is it possible to have it switch sim automatically when tapping and holding? These are just small things. Otherwise it is fantastic! Dave.

[Q] Dialer issue - phone reboots when making calls

Bought the Atrix last week and unlocked it with the help from the webshop as I'm in Belgium, no problem connecting to Mobistar wich is my provider and data connections works great. But I'm having real problems making phonecalls and recieving calls; the phone reboots or the dialer hangs and it looks like a call is going on when it's not, phone still works but flashing green in the notification area and it's impossible to hang up, need to reboot. This happens like 80% of the times I try to make a call. After a reboot it works fine to call and hang-up one or two times then it crashes again.
Also noted that my Dialer often runs twice in the Running Apps manager - is that normal??
Anyone having the same issues or know what to do, reinstall the Dialer app --> if so how? Is it a hardware or software problem??
A little more info: when I recieved the device it was in a sealed Atrix box but the phone was used and already had an active Blur account so I had to do a hard reset to be able to use it... --> was it returned 'cause of faulty dialer or radio... then resold to me... not nice if so...?
Tried to install dialer one app but it seems only to skin the original dialer...
It's a greate device and works great othervice but in the end it's still a phone... which should be able to make calls...
Help
Ive got an unlocked Atrix too and now in Germany, I have the same problem. Motorola should definitely look into this.
Here's a quick fix for it thou, (not permanent)....
1. type *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer
2. Chose Phone Information
3. Set preferred network to GSM only
Viola...its fixed
problem with this fix is that you wont be able to use your 3G network but the dialer should be working.
Thanks Nazrin (for both replies) !!
It sure did the trick, though no data access is not acceptable on a phone like this!!!
So this meens that all unlocked Atrix's in european GSM networks have the same problems? Haven't seen any others reporting this and there are quite a few in use I've noted in other forums.
Was thinking of trying to have mine replaced (which probably won't be easy and take long time...) but that won't change anything then??
We have to wait for the european version of Atrix rom I suppose??
Any others with the same problem??
No problems buddy, glad it worked..and i have to agree with you..this bug is unacceptable...it seems the phone just ***** up everytime it calls on utms (3g)...im sure there is more people with this problem...
Sent from my Supercharged MOTO ATX
I have the same problem
Hi guys, I have the same exact issue (I'm also in Belgium, on Mobistar). I'm somewhat glad to hear this is a generic issue, and not an issue with my specific phone. At least I can be fairly certain replacing it won't solve this issue then.
I made another post here before I came across this one, has a bit more info: we are seeing modem panics when using 3G + outbound call. I've also contacted Motorola support to no avail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028771
You can also read there that I tried another operator, and it did not crash with that one (although 3G did disconnect).
Hopefully Motorola/Qualcomm will start to notice the bug when they release the phone globally, and release a fix.
Either that, or we all have phones from the same bad batch
This bug is really bad for users in europe....cant call on utms...
I really hope motorola takes this seriously cos if there's no fix via software updates then its moto gone for me
Guys, you are all on unlocked att atrix right? I do believe it is a simmiliar software glitch/bug/lock that you have porblems using it on non att networks as the problem with the wifi that it stops working for some of us (check the thread about it for more info). As all suggests there it is a config file problem, unfortunately i or anyone else doesnt know yet which one....
Yeah maybe..but funny thing is wifi is working without a glitch...will have to read that forum later...
Workaround options
So, since it seems we're not gonna get this fixed until there is a new radio/modem firmware available for flashing (and even then..), I've been looking for a workaround.
Found two potential applications that could do what we need: disable data completely when making an outgoing call, or switch to 2G:
- Sanity
- Superpower
I've tested the first (Sanity), and it does not work (fully). It does seem to disable data, but the bands aren't switched so our problem remains. I've contacted the developer here: http://tagliamonte.net/forum/thread-10.html. He seems to be very responsive, so given enough interest, I think he would add the functionality we require.
The second app I only came across today, and have not tried yet. It does not have a function to specifically switch bands when making an outgoing call, but it has a trigger for "Foreground application", so if we make that the dialer/contacts... Question remains if it will be able to do the switch.
Hopefully one of these will lead to a decent workaround for all of us!
Well done unknown...i will try these apps... but the real fix should be from moto...im always reading the net for anything that can solve this issue
reboots on incoming and outgoing calls
Same in Russia on Megafon network, I had to enter 4636 menu and use it as "GSM only". Even this does not fully solve problems, e.g. call forwarding does not show the new destination number while it does actually make the phone divert calls correctly.
My hope is that UK release will trigger new software version which will address this issue. ANYONE has news on this?
FIXED!
YAY! I just fixed this issue
What you need to do: flash the radio from this thread:

You have to use RSD-lite, since sbf_flash will not work. Flash the 1.87 baseband and enjoy working HSPA (including unlocked upload speeds ^^)
Now I can finally appreciate this phone fully
Enjoy guys!

Motorola Atrix restart when placing a call
I just got the same exact Dialer problem now, but the flash radio file is gone* in the pointed post, and I don't know exactly how to flash the radio.
Someone can help me? I need the radio file and step by step instruction to how to flash it.
BTW my Atrix 4G works perfect for a year till this Dialer problem started past week.
I also use my phone as a full Linux computer when docked, and it works very fine.
Thanks
* The file was on megaupload, that was closed
No answer
Why I never got an answer of any post I did?
There is something wrong?

Bought the Atrix last week and unlocked it with the help from the webshop as I'm in Belgium, no problem connecting to Mobistar wich is my provider and data connections works great. But I'm having real problems making phonecalls and recieving calls; the phone reboots or the dialer hangs and it looks like a call is going on when it's not, phone still works but flashing green in the notification area and it's impossible to hang up, need to reboot. This happens like 80% of the times I try to make a call. After a reboot it works fine to call and hang-up one or two times then it crashes again.
Also noted that my Dialer often runs twice in the Running Apps manager - is that normal??
Anyone having the same issues or know what to do, reinstall the Dialer app --> if so how? Is it a hardware or software problem??
A little more info: when I recieved the device it was in a sealed Atrix box but the phone was used and already had an active Blur account so I had to do a hard reset to be able to use it... --> was it returned 'cause of faulty dialer or radio... then resold to me... not nice if so...?
Tried to install dialer one app but it seems only to skin the original dialer...
It's a greate device and works great othervice but in the end it's still a phone... which should be able to make calls...

[Sorry for problem in speaking]
i had that problem too , im using CM13 with Marshmallow Version of android
So . the easy way is :
***** search "Default" in settings. then choose " System dialer" as Default ! just it ****
but if there is no search bar in your setting . try this patch:
Android 6 : Setting/Apps then click the setting icon on top(may be diffrent in your case) , then Click on "default ...." then choose " System dialer" as Default! :fingers-crossed:
but in some cases that it didnt work . they have to reinstall gapps .
Or in official Roms , reset will be usefull
any quastions?
