Hi
I'm new and i found a problem with my TYTN (Vodafone 1605)
Many times TOMTOM goes in block and BT antenna don't answer.
Do you think is a ROM version problem or it's a generalized bug?
tks
Vodafone 1605 compact III
ROM: 1.20.161.6
Radio: 1.03.06.00
I'm having a very similar problem, though TomTom connects to and holds the GPS OK, Memory Map will only connect around 1 in 5 times, most of the time I get "GPS: Cannot open com port" or if it manages to talk to the GPS unit, after 5 minutes or so will come up with "GPS:communication timeout"
I have tried flashing a diffrerent (WM6) rom but still the same problem

I'm in Melbourne and using Telstra.
My XDA
ROM ver 3.14.17 ENG
ROM date 10/11/02
Radio version 4.16
Protocol version 32S54
My problems are:
1.weak signal
2.phone hangs and wont automatically reconnect to network until I switch it off and back on.
Is that only my bad lack or others have similar problems?
Is there a possibility of improving this by change of settings or...?
Any comments appreciated :?:
MY XDA Freezes and Drops Calls
Hello, I am in Ireland. My Phone Hangs and Drops every now and then. It Releases itself after about 5 minutes. Sometimes I answer a call and it drops the line at this stage. I went into an o2 shop to ask them about this but they suggested that there is no other customers with this problem.
the same problem with ROM 3.15.15 ENG / Radio 4.16.00
I have the same hang up problem. I bought mine in Australia as well but use it all around the world, for that matter i have never used it in Australia but i have the hang up problem sometimes. Never the weak signal though. Maybe i am just lucky.
Exactly the same problem with xda bought in HK and used in Russia. And as i note this problem occurs while other mobile phone near xda shows "good" signal level. So I have to restart phone each hour
3.15.15 ENG / 4.16.00
I'm ready to write program which will switch phone module off and on hourly

Same problem in SG. 3.14.17ENG with 4.16 Radio stack. Took my XDA to the service center and they upgraded the radio stack to 4.17... Seems like improved so far but not sure if this is a complete resolution yet. Have not seen this radio stack released on the internet yet.
I have the same problem - I seem to be getting a good signal, and all of a sudden the audio just clicks off totally, while the connection time is still ticking over. I've installed the new official patches which seemed to slightly improve things, but the problem still occurs. It'd be nice if someone could resolve this, I've got no idea.
Hi all,
Have the same problem here in Saudi Arabia if the signal gets week at some spot it will not come back only after a reset..
Hello folks,
I have a QTEK 1010 bought from Dubai in October 2003.
Model PW10A1
ROM version 3.16.52 ENG
ROM Date 03/10/03
Radio version 3.19.01
Protocol version 32S54
The device works well but periodically goes off (PDA and cell phone) and pressing the power button at this point soft resets it. I have tried removing add on software (D9 dialer and SMS name utility), soft resetting and hard resetting.
A hard reset seemed to solve the problem - until I synched with Outlook again - but then maybe I did not wait long enough since even after synching and software being loaded, it does fine for hours at a stretch. It is my impression that an incoming or missed call causes it to do that but since it happens inconsistently, I cannot tell.
My questions: -
Is this more likely to be solved by a ROM upgrade or a Radio upgrade? Or is this likely to be a hardware issue? A friend and I bought two devices together but his ROM and radio versions are higher numbers. He does not have this problem but then his cellular provider is different.

Hi there,
I have been trying to get tomtom to work on my xda 1, I have upgraded to wm2003se to do this & upgraded to several different radio stacks in the hope of getting better signal on the phone & now it seems i am unable to get any signal at all, anyone have any suggestions on how to get it working again?
I did get the tomtom software working though
Thanks
110 views & no clues :'(
anyone even got a silly suggestion?
No radio signal at all ?
Did everything got very very slow as well ?
this happened on mine after a ROM upgrade : I kept the ROM but downgraded the Radio ROM.
It worked and radio was back. No problem using tomtom navigator 5.21

Some fuc.... ROMs may set the Radio to 900/1900 MHz networks. Try setting it manaully to 900/1800 in the bootloader. Maybe this helps you.

Anyone tested radio roms in .se ?
I think that 1.47.00.10 is the best yet.
All roms above disconnects me when driving around in car..
Same problem for me.
I've tried every radio from 1.51 and worked my way downwards. I'm currently trying 1.35.0.11.
The problem with dropped calls during driving disappeared, but now i get dropped calls when standing still instead. If I do a soft reset, the phone works normally for some time before it starts dropping calls again.
Tested new 1.47.30.10 ?

Each radio is calibrated for the network it was designed for. So, I would first test the radios that were made for the 3 network in Sweden as they will most likely produced the best results; all other radios would produce mixed/subjective results.
And how do I know which radios that are made for 3;s network in Sweden ?
I've tried the radio version that I found in one of the instructions on 3's support-page (1.38.00.10)
http://www.tre.se/upload/Programvara/mob/Instruktioner_uppgradHTCTyTN.pdf
That didn't work any better than the rest I've tested.
1.35.0.11 worked like a charm for some days, with minor bugs, until just recently when the phone began dropping calls again..
I will try with 1.47.30.10 later today.
1.47.30.10 worked in the same way as the other "newer" radios did:
Not moving = Good!
Moving = Dropped calls. You CAN NOT be in a moving vehicle since roaming between your operators antennas or changing from 3G to GSM disconnects the call immediately.
The "older" radios works fine for a random timelimit, then a soft reset is needed. Roaming doesn't seem to disconnect calls.
Would it help if i changed ROM / ExtROM?
Current setup:
Swedish WM 6, downloaded from HTC (3.54.263.2)
Radio: 1.27.00.00 (have tried every radio version that is newer without success..)
ExtROM: 3.54.263.102
Operator: 3
Area: Stockholm / Sweden
Fine. But I have 1.50 with Telia it works gr8
Hi, my G4 was originally from spain Vodafone, it was SIM unlocked, I believe with lokywiz, it accept any SIM but the GRPS signal is very low, some times it give me the "No Service" message, sometimes it keeps searching for an anthena.
I upgraded the spanish ROM to Touch Xb by Gullum, without problem, and radio to 2.19.21, but no avail
One thing is that the product number is 99HBE086-00 A
Compared with my original Qtek S200 G3 wicht is 99HBE043-00 T01
Both machinnes had the same OS ROM and same Radio ROM, however G3 signal is very good, 1 bar less than a regular Motorola, while the G4 is looking for signal almost all the time.
I used to have a T-Mobile Wallaby, with a very similar problem.
Somebody can help me?
u can find a new radio rom in wiki.it's ver 2.69
Fixed
It was a hardware problem, one circuit track that connect the anntena was loose, also the internal battery was dead (and a little bit rusty), and the speaker was cover with some cotton or something, otherwise it didn't work, similar cutted cikuit track in the speaker.
I fixed all those problems, my G4 now performs just like my G3.
Hi. I've been using my hermes for a while now and playing with different upgrades without ever having a problem. I've never tried to use mobile internet (GPRS/3G/EDGE) before though. I started trying recently when my ISP became so bad i could barely load a webpage.
No matter what i do the hermes wont even attempt to connect. (I used my electic guitar pickups to detect the radio bleeps. I get them when making a call but not when attempting gprs).
Here is a rough outline of the roms i remember trying:
Schaps 4.30 (with whatever radio it came with)
CRCs 13.4 (with the radio it came with and with 1.48 radio to try and get connected)
Orange UK rom (SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_0407), radio 1.38
(all with Hard-SPL-2.10 installed)
I'm on Orange UK, and I've even tried downgrading to the latest orange rom (the one with 1.38 radio). Still no joy. I bought the one day access to orange world thing (about 4 times :O), and tried connecting using orange internet and orange wap connections.
Is my radio forever fried/bricked for some reason? Any help would be appreciated, as I dont fancy trying to get my old imate sp5 to connect to the net . Looks like I might be forking out for a new phone
PS. Wifi internet works fine, as do voice calls.
Did you check the MMS/WAP settings as these are lost when loading a new rom. Either run the carrier configurator (if included in the ROM) or get the settings from your provider and do it manually...
Thanks for the reply ultramag. I tried the configurator when I had the CRC 13.4 rom installed. It seemed to set up the settings for wap the same as on oranges configuration site. I assumed that my phone must be being blocked for not being an orange rom or the radio version was incompatible. I then tried radio version 1.48 as i read somewhere that this worked with orange uk. Then i tried installing the orange full phone rom including orange version of wm5 and the orange radio rom 1.38. I suspect this could be a physical hardware fault as i have opened up the phone before to fix the earphone speaker and camera.
I wonder is the voice call chip separate from the one that does GPRS? or is it a one chip deal?
Also, it is a very old sim card. Could this contribute in any way?
mmm if its an old sim card it probably cant do 3g but gprs should work.
perhaps your current radio rom does not support data somehow? or you havent got all your settings configured properly... its all i can think of...
I tried a vodafone payg sim card from someone elses phone, and it came up with a 3G symbol on the start bar at the top. I couldnt connect however, but according to the vodafone website you dont have to explicitly pay to get to the www.live.vodafone.com site? Or am I wrong?
Getting the 3G symbol with vodafone suggests I might be getting close to a solution here. Also connecting and disconnecting the 3g box on comm manager caused radio bleeps which suggests it is capable of 3g. Looks like my beef is with orange/vodafone and not the Hermes. Typical!
Thanks for all your help guys. I'll post if it ever works.
try your carriers website for gprs specific settings =) i know i had to edit my settings before mine would work..
Problem solved
I've finally sold this problem. It was the SIM card and nothing to do with the phone. I never managed to get through to Orange tech support because theyre useless (last time i phoned they said their tech support systems would be down for 5 hours).
A friend had an Orange SIM and I tried MMS (which uses GPRS) with his SIM in the Hermes and it worked fine. I then tried it with my SIM and it failed as usual. Sorry for wasting peoples time with this.
P.S. Orange sucks. I will be switching service ASAP.
