hi ! from the last 2 month ive been upgrading my Radio ( from 1.43 to 1.48) and since i put 1.48 my wifi is rarely connecting. There is no problem with the communication manager, it seems that the problem is the connection...i can see every access point or so but cannot connect to any of them.
i went back to original 1.43 and still no luck, anybody has an idea? im running on WM6 but i dont think thats the problem. i had al ot for problem with 1.48 so i downgraded to 1.47...wifi did get better but i still have problems..so i went back to 1.43
Im located in Montreal, Canada, so i dont know if those Radio version is good or i better keep the Rogers one.
Any help would be appreciate, tytn w/o wifi sux.
thanks
i'm having the same problem as well ever since i downloaded that rogers cab file from lurch
anyone have any ideas?

After using WM 2003 I downgraded to te original 02-rom (3.17.03) everything works fine, but i cant connect to GPRS. I used the o2 auto-config tool an tried to make a connection manualy, with no succes.
I never messed with the radio-rom (4.21)
The phone works fine, so it isn't a hardware problem???????? (correct me if i'm wrong)
I tried soft and hard resets, deleted connections and made new ones. I'm out of idees. Can anyone help me? :?: :?:
this has happened to me on a number of occasions, especially after playing around with different versions. what i would suggest is re-autoconfig then wait, its as though the system (O2) needs time to realise there is a new phone on the network. it sometimes takes a few hours then everything works as usual.

I've had similar problems with T-Mobile after upgrading roms.
The solution has always been to call them and they reset your connection on their end.
(No idea what that means but I imagine there is a big switchboard with everyone's name and the tech walks over and flips my switch!)
This has happended 2 or 3 times and their reset always fixed the problem.
GPRS suddenly started working again! (done nothing)
I guess it was provider problem... (3 days!!!! :evil: )
I'm having the same problem now. I upgraded to 4.00.16 and Radio ROM 6.24 2 weeks ago and yesterday the GPRS stopped working. I called T-Mobile. They tried everything and now opened a ticket.
Any ideas on what may be causing this?
Ive got the same problem. Got my main board replaced. Recieved the phone back. Installed new 2003 OS now GPRS wont connect. Im 120% sure ive got the settings wright. Bugger Bugger Bugger!

Mines fixed. I forced Vodafone in NZ to remove my GPRS account and recreat it. Works perfect now.
I'm writing from my XDA via GPRS. GPRS mysteriously came back after 3 days.
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.

afternoon all, bit of a newbie here but will try and get my problem accross.
I have an orange M3100 with whatever rom that comes with as standard, to make it except a t mobile sim i used the free unlocker from here, version 2. this all worked fine until 2 months later my phone locked up on me and i had to hard reset. this went ok until when it was loading the rom. it got to the orange2006.tsk and always froze. after many many attempts i noticed on the boot screen it said NO GSM. i looked around here and realised i had a corrupt radio or no radio at all. confused i downloaded the radio only 1.35 and installed. finally success my phone loaded the rom which by now i had the xda live 0.20 and the radio worked fine. the problems i am having now are that whenever the phone looses signal, it won't in the conventional sense try and search or show the icon saying no signal. it just shows the last known signal strength before it was lost and then when i do want to make a call or send an sms it says "Phone operation failed" and looses signal and then tries to lock on again. this is extremely annoying as my girlfriend has reminded me on many occassions when trying to contact me, she just cannot get through. it gives her a dead tone.
i have tried flashing the device with the proper orange rom off the site thats from romania or somewhere to get an offical orange radio rom on again and then i flashed to xda live 0.20 and its still doing it.
is my radio just buggered or is there a simple flash solution i can do to fix it.
the phone is currently using XDA live 0.20 with radio 1.35.00.11 and bootloader 1.4 super CID (i think, as i can load any rom on it)
also to point out the phone never did this loosing signal and not changing thing before i had to hard reset.
thanks all and sorry for the long post.
it seems the problems seem to stem from Edge here in the uk on orange. i never saw the E icon before i upgraded the radio shack and now its coming up and errors. i never get the hanging problem with that.
anyone suggest anything? as i know edge is faster gprs i dont think i can disable it
thanks all
Consider changing your radio
I would start by changing to an older stable radio, perhaps 1.27. 1.27 is a very stable radio (in my experience), and it seems very tolerant. If that does not help, I would try to upgrade to the latest radio, 1.38. I am using it with the WM VI Black Ed. ROM without any problems here in the United States.
Good Luck! (Gotta keep the girl friend happy!)
I've just upgraded my Vodafone 1605 to WM6 successfully, and updated my radio version. The problem I'm faced with now is that my device hunts for signal whenever I'm indoors and simply wont find one until I go outside.
Does anybody have any suggestions or fixes for this? I've tried various radio versions and I'm currently on 1.43.00.00 with the same issues.
Phone details:
ROM version - 3.54.255.3
Radio Version - 1.43.00.00
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.10.Olipro
Thanks in advance.
This is almost certainly the Radio Upgrade - newer doesn't always mean better because they are often released optimised to a specific carrier.
Try 1.48 or 1.38 (I find 1.38 works well in most parts of the world).
Could you please link to either one of those upgrades?
I'm literally tearing my hair out here and can't find them - Thanks for your understanding.
*EDIT*
Found this wonderful website....I guess it's just trial and error now!

Okay, I've just updated to radio version 1.48 and I'm still getting no signal....
Any ideas guys? I'm getting ready to chuck this phone against a wall...
I had really bad reception until I used 1.54.07.00 radio from ATT rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334697
I've already tried that ROM and still the same thing...
I'm wondering if it's a problem with this windows install....?
Okay, another update on this...I've tried 1.54.07.00 radio from ATT again (so that's my current ROM) and I'm still getting no signal.
When the SIM is in my old Sony Ericsson it works fine...so it's definately not network coverage issues.
So far the ROMS i've tried are:
1.38
1.43
1.48
1.54
None of them have meant I get coverage in this room, where I used to be able to get it no problem before with my old Hermes. (This one was sent as an exchange from Vodafone due to my last one having screen issues).
Plllleeaaassseee help
Yet another update.
I've just done the following in an attempt to remedy the situation:
Unlocked the phone to take and SIM.
Flashed the Radio to 1.48 ROM.
Flashed the phone to Windows mobile 6 HTC release.
Still...no signal.
Is this now a hardware issue?
Is your SIM card old? There are some reports of some older cards not working too well when using the 3G, HEDGE or EDGE networks.
Try setting your phone to GSM only just to test this - otherwise I'm at a loss.
hmm same here affter a wm6 upgrade.
Noticed that my orange simcard does get reception indoors though!!
outdoors my vodafone gets reception (not always, but it does get gsm gprs connection) but indoors my vodafone prepaid card gets no reception at all..
Downgraded to the wm5 rom and 1.27 radio but still this problem stays.
On the choice of network providers i dont see the dutch vodafone activated? (unticked) it does find and see it but wont get on it.
After schaps 4.01 rom i noticed that with -g3 connection always on- vodafone did get connection but only on 3g (umts), as soon as i click on gsm only instead of automatic all signal strength is gone again.
I am now on the orginal wm5 rom and radio 1.27 but still no vodafone? is there blacklisting of any sorts by the poviders? My vodafone simcard is brandnew!
Please help
hmm
Seems it is a blocked imei. been reading a bit on this forum and something similar happened to another member..
Vodafone works for a while but then it crashes and you wont get contact with kpn vodafone tmobile anymore. only orange seems to work ok.
Must be a nicked phone. weird.. almost 100% sure that the phone isnt nicked.
Where can i check if an imei is reported stolen?
UPDATE: strangly enuff the tytn now works again with my vodafone sim, but only on 3G? .. also i checked and the phone workes great on orange and t-mobile, kpn it does not recognize.. but why did it start to work again on vodafone?
Hi every one,
i've got my hermes radio to 1.54.30.10 month ago. and i've just seen a Seniour member started a thread warning that the 1.54 series are unstable....
i haven't met any problems till now.. i wanna know if it's possible for me to downgrade my radio to 1.47 or 1.38?
I'm no expert, but I went from 1.54.30.10 to the official 1.54.07.00. Never tried going lower.
I just downgraded to 1.43 due to problems with 1.54.30.10 - start loosing signal recently

Yes, u can down grade to a lower radio version, it's done quite often (assuming u have hardspl).
Thanks a lot~
I'll downgrade my Radio as soon as I finished this semester~
By the way...
Are there any serious problem( known as bricked your Hermes) if i continue to using this 1.54.30.10 Radio?
i mean if it necessary for me to downgrade my Radio?
No hard evidence, but 1.5+ radios are suspected for causing problems - read details HERE and HERE
I start experiencing problems similar to described in the above threads, so just downgareded to 1.43
Cheers
not having any major issues with this radio ROM, been on the radio for more or less 3 weeks (touch wood! ) .. am on Celcom Malaysia 3G (UMTS 2100)
Similar problems here. Downgraded, but it may be too late,had numerous connection problems and slow 3G on tmobile.
Forget radio 1.54.xxxxx
From my experience - flashing radio 1.54 can brick your phone , lost CID and sspl .

Bad plan get rid of it now.
Use this one: ftp://xda:[email protected]/HERM_Radio_Only_1.48.00.10_CustomRUU.rar
it's not worth the risk of waiting.... you've been lucky so far. Current thought is that the 1.5x series ROMs drive the radio chip too hard and it overheats to extinction. First signs are drops and erratic radio performance. If you wait until you already got it you prob waited too long. But if you do get those symptoms before you reflash, then pull the battery immediately and (OK this might sound weird but it worked for a friend of mine) put the phone & the battery in a zip lock baggy and put it in the freezer while you get that radio rom I pointed at above ready.
When ready, put it back together and immediately flash the Radio with the 1.48 version. After it resets and does it's business.... reflash the 1.48 again.
Hopefully you will never see the problem again, if that didn't work then you may as well try calling your provider to see if they will replace the phone.
I've downgraded my radio to 1.48 about 1 month ago..
i'll show my grateful to u, thanks a lot!
radio 1.54.30.10 is working perfect on Orange Israel ,Kiyevstar Ukrain, MTC Moscow , and other Europe countries that i visited , this radio is the best i tried

So far so good .. nothing bad happen yet .. notice that my CELCOM 3G signal getting better ...
Same here, I have a better signal and connects to 3G faster than AT&T's radio 1.54.07.00, and I am on the AT&T Network
just to add to the the list of "satisfied customers" ..no problem whatsoever with my provider (UMTS 2100/GSM 900+1800)..
best downgrade and how to obtain it
I'm also experiencing similar problems. I have been running 1.54.07.00 for about 3 months and steadily experiencing more drop-outs on the phone service. I've ready different treads and some people have downgraded to 1.48 and other to 1.43. Is either one a better choice? And, sorry to ask a basic question, but where to I download the downgrade. I searched, but to no avail.
Hermes 100
Rom Version 3.62.502.3
Rom date 10/11/2007 (Oct 11)
Radio version: 154.07.00
I've been using this Radio on my Vario II since it showed up here (2 months maybe) and nothing happened. Signal strength is still the same. For me personally it's the best Radio I've been using so far. I'd be a pity having to downgrade now...

I've had the 'false roaming' icon on for a few weeks now in addition to a 'no signal' scare for a few hours. I'm thinking of just downgrading to the 1.43 radio that originally shipped with the WM5 AT&T ROM.
