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.

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

hi have had and am hainvg same problem, phone freezing and dropping out and weak signal when signal is fine in a phone.

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 !
After the upgrade to WM2003 4.00.11 ENG, the signal is low or missing.
It is a Danish Qtek 1010. I haven´t upgraded the radio ver, it is 3.23.01, and i don´t know if there are any new radio ver. for my device.
I have seen in other threads, that other people have the same problems.
Pleeeze, can anybody help ??
I've found that the signal meter reads MUCH lower with 4.x, but my actual phone call quality is better than it used to be. Are you having call problems? The meter is not very useful since the calibration has no specific rules. It varies across different phones and different versions of the software.
Yes, the calls are dropping out, and sometimes i am not able to make a call. I had a T68 and after that a P800, both had no signal problems where i am.
Dear all,
I'm the (un)happy owner of a HTC TYTN (u know the QTEK 9600 or moreover SPV 3100 from Orange) with an Orange contract.
It was a nightmare to configure the wap and mms settings. Anyway, it seems there is another problem, more serious than the settings: I've got a lot of network(s) issues. Either in GPRS or UMTS mode, I have a very bad signal strengh (compared side by side with my previous Nokia 6680), let say not far from half of the signal on the TyTN. The other problem is that I often have some disconnections and I thought it was when the phone tries to switch from GPRS band to UMTS one. Indeed, it's very strange, either I'm in standby (no move at all) or on movement, swithing appears and of course the data connexion is interrupted.
Well all that said, my question is quite simple: do you think an upgrade and certainly more a Radio (if it's supposed to provide a better "radio" power) ROM may get my life better?
Should someone from Orange (customer of course) with the same model help me by extracting an Orange ROM?
Kind regards for your help, I'm still totally angry at brands like HTC releasing some un-finished products without any decent support!

ROM version : 1.18.256.2
ROM Date : 07, 22th 2006
Radio version : 1.03.03.10
Protocol : 32.34.7010.01H
Ext ROM : 1.18.256.104
Bootloader : 1.08
Couple of days ago I flashed my Vario II with the HTC 2.05 ROM + 1.38.10 Radio ROM. Before that, I was happily using the SA HTC 1.35 ROM.
After updating the ROM, I noticed that I could send and recieve texts, but not make or recieve any calls. I though it was just a network problem so I spent yesterday in Brighton visitng my sister.
Now, although I couldn't make or recieve any calls at home, when I got down to Brighton I was able to call. When I got home to my girlfriends later that night, I was able to connect to the web and browse a few pages (missed MOTD and Rugby. Needed the scores!).
Back at home today, and I'm still getting the same problem. I've now tried Radio ROM's 1.38.10, 1.35 and 1.27 without any luck.
If I force the signal to GSM, the signal strength shows 2 bars, so pretty weak. If I set it to Auto, it states that 3G is available and at full strength! Clearly its being reported incorrectly?
Now, is it the case that the 3G signal is just about detectable but too weak to send and recieve calls? Because it can detect a faint 3G signal, is that why it appears not to be falling back on GSM? I'm guessing here.
If thats the case, why the hell did I not get any problems with the 1.18 Radio ROM is the SA firmware?
I've found the location of my local T-Mobile Mast, so I'm going to pop over near it so I can rule out a signal problem. But apart from that, is there anything else that could be causing this problem?
Hi there, I seem to be having the same problem.
I have a week old Vario II, as my mobile number has yet to be ported to Tmobile I am still using my old phone.
However, evening I tried making a call from my Vario II and just received 3 beeps and a hang up. When the intended caller tried to call me back the phone rang but again ended the call after 1 ring. I tried a couple of different SIM cards with the same results.
I had SIM unlocked and SuperCID'd the handset a few days ago, and thought I may have buggered something up along the way so I done a hard reset. This time the 3G icon didn't appear but I was able to make calls. A few minutes later the 3G icon appeared and once again I was back to not being able to make/receive calls.
Gurubumsmack, have you managed to resolve your issues at all ?
Also being a bit wet behind the ears with the Hermes, what OS, Radio builds would you recommmend ?
Thanks, Dan
Try forcing the Band to GSM instead of Auto (3G) and see what happens.
Mine is now working perfectly with the 1.38.10 Radio. I left it on GSM for a couple of days and then slapped it back to Auto (3G). Has been fine for about a week now touch wood.
The only fault I can put it down was a local transmitter issue.
I'm currently using the HTC 2.11 WM5 AKU3.3 ROM, which comes with the 1.38.10 Radio. Stability is top notch and speed great.
I decided to hold off flashing to WM6 until development on that settles down a bit. Literally a new ROM being released every week over there!
It's true that 2.11 WM5 AKU3.3 combined with 1.38.10 RADIO is rocking stable...
Hi,
Since my HTC universal broke the LCD I start to find a replacement.
I found a friend who have a TG01 with no use... and he borrowed the device before I buy it.
I am running with the device since last Sunday, and I must say that the cons of this device (battery), for me it´s ok (4h30) of use (mix of calls, emails, etc).
I can not reach this time with my HTC
I had found some "problems" but already solved, using search in here.
But, on other side, I have some problems that I could not found the solution.
1. I can not put the device in 3G, only in 2G (I try changing in appropriate settings zones).
If I put in "automatic".... always in 2G and my home area have 3G.
So I decided to leave the device with GSM only.
2. Some cases, when I make/receive a phone call, the others persons inform me that
they can not hear me correctly (like I have poor signal, but the times I could check the
signal, it was full).
3. I use the TG01, with a bluetooh car kit (he did not access the contacts in the phone)
Works fine, but yesterday I found that the TG01 was "frozen" several times in the
day...???
In the evening I found that the freeze are related with bluetooh connections to the car
kit. Connecting/disconnecting.
The 3 problems that I have should be related to radio version???
I have:
software 5005.0000.0171 SP-00
radio version 5005.0000.0171
Thanks

Hi,
Yes your problems are from the radio version and from your carrier nerwork!
I have the same problem in Romania because i have more phones and also 3 carriers.
In one case, I use this phone with the Cosmote carrier from Romania it gave me the same problem as you have (the Cosmote carrier has two networks- one for GSM (2G) and one for 3G). Because the two internal network my phone see that i am in roming and give all that problems!
I installed the Feropont rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=969087 )and it works ok by now, Mirolg roms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906969)was also ok for me untill a point (is with Sense)!
Another rom I tried is fxdjacentfxd (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993343) (best free memory) unfortunatly it gave me an error because of the carrier and i changed.

Thanks very much!!!
for the links.....
I installed feropont rom !!!
Looks fine, but still have the problem of 3G...
Tomorow I will check the sound!!!
Thanks again!!
Perhaps I quit!!!
Hi,
Well, I try radio 1600 and now 300.
In this weekend, 1600 still have bad quality sound (people can not hear me very well).
In this morning (early) I flash again the same rom with radio changed for 300, but still haven´t 3G (for my experience I think I will have sound problem).
Today before flashing I put another SIM card (vodafone) and ... I have 3G, after changing the settings.
I leave the settings in HSPAD, put my TMN sim card ..... and no signal!!! (like usual).
My SIM card what is giving me "problems" had +- 4 months.
(Had 3G in the HTC Universal, with same card).
So, my problems could be in the SIM card (I think not)? what did you say?
After flash and reflash and because I use TG01 for professional use....
Pherhaps I quit!!
Thanks to everyone!!!

I told you!
The problem consist in the equipment carrier use! Vodafone use Ericsson devices and Orange use Alcatel stuff, but other carrier could use other equipment and from here comes the errors.
I don't think that the error comes from your SIM card !
I think the error come from the radio in your phone witch is not adequate with the carrier equipment. So my advice is keep looking for another radio! Try 1700!

Your Right Rila, the problem could also be in the TG01.
But my SIM card, in my wife phone or in another phone with 3G could not "enter" in 3G.
(I did not use 3G in my HTC universal, the sound also wasn´t good, but I always think it was for my blue tooth car kit or bad signal reception)
The same with my old Qtek S200(who don´t have 3G only GSM)
The sim had 4 months old.
For future "helps" I try 1600;300 and now 321.
I am waiting news from the operator.
First I must have a SIM that in other phones, work in 3G, after that, let´s test in TG01
I will post the news
(I must admitted I star to get TG01 addicted )
Perhaps I do not quit!!!
Ok!
In my break launch, I go to a store from my carrier!
They did found one problem, in my "service"!
After 30 minutes they call me and ask to reset the device ( they know it was a Windows mobile phone).
After reset, I select hspda settings and I have now 3G.
I put again the Tg on GSM only ( for saving battery).
In +- 10 calls no one has inform me they can not hear me well.
It´s soon too say that the problem it´s SOLVED but it´s looking good
Another think that I noted is that I have 1H55 m with 70% remaining battery.
