Hi everybody,
I've bought an O2 XDA Neo (Not branded) from Germany the past weeks and i updated it to an WM6 ROM. (Tried with a lot of ROM combinations, Jester and PDAviet_Temp for WM5 and even WM5 official, and all the latest Contributed WM6 ROMS, and even all updates for Radio ROM.)
The problem remained the same: For Orange RO and Vodafone RO my phone has weak or no signal (only isolated cases with full signal) but for Cosmote RO my phone works perfectly.
I came with this questions after many many attempts to solve my problem like even changing the SIM-s used (old or newer),trying the pim.vol solution, even trying to understand the difference between operators frequences (Orange is on 1800 i suppose and Cosmote in on 1800 and 900 also) but nothing changed anything.
I think not even only WM5 used.
There are some differences between the 2 and Cosmote like PGSM for the 2 and EGSM for Cosmote or some other stuff, but i have tested with other G4 Neo and all should be fine.
The only problem that i had with the update was that i could not get the SIM unlock to work as it should (G4 problem i suppose) - The code i recive are hieroglyphs.
I feel i have tried everything and came to the conclusion that it should be a hardware problem but why does it work with Cosmote RO?
Thank you and hope you can guide me in solving the problem.
Kind regards, Hatza
If you cannot unlock the SIM, then you should not get any signal. I have unlocked my prophet (it is a G4) without trouble. Try this: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Unlock_Sim and see if the problem persists.
If it is an O2 XDA Neo, how can it not be branded? Is it already SIM unlocked?
SIM Unlocked with errors
That was the exact way that i used SIM unlock but the problem was that instead of the code, i recive only some "hieroglyphs", so i cannot use any unlock code.
The phone was bought as with NO SIM LOCK, but the recived box that he came in was for O2 even if the phone has no visible O2 logo.
From what you have said, I think itis hardware issue. try different sim cards if you can. Use the device in different locations, and check the connection settings are correct. Also check the network coverage and band in your area if you can.
XDA Neo weak or no signal!
But if it is a hardware problem, what should be wrong that for some networks it works, and for some it doesn't.
One other thing, does the prefered networks setting rely on the phone or on the network setting becouse i always find Orange and Vodafone unchecked?
By hardware problem, I meant SIM cards. I should have been clearer. Try using a SIM card from the same network if you have one, and see if the problem still exists.
The preferd network settings is downloaded from the network when the device connects, although I would suggest changeing them if that is true.
XDA Neo weak or no signal!
Tested again with new set of SIMs. The same result:
- Orange RO NOT WORKING
- Vodafone RO NOT WORKING
- Cosmote RO WORKING
In all the cases (all networks) if i set a PIN code, i am beeing asked for it but no difference what so ever.
And yes, it is location dependent becouse where i normally have a strong signal, my phone get's weak signal before loosing it, but for weak signal locations, no signal is found.
PIN codes are for the SIM card, not for the network. I think the problem may well be a hardware (your device) fault. Did the problem happen when you first got the device?
XDA Neo weak or no signal!
I've recived it as functional and my only mistake was not to test if before upgrading.
Is there any way i could generate that kind of fault while upgrading. I received no error what so ever in the process.
With the working SIM, all incoming and outgoing calls were succesfull without any trace of the error. Tests were done for 3 days and no error was seen.
is there any way i could find out if it has a SIM lock ( information anly) or any infrmation that it should be useful to you to give you an ideea of the phone status?
For hardware, do you have any clue what should have failed?
Thanks a lot, Hatza
If there is a SIM lock, the device would ask for the SIM unlock code on startup.
I have no idea what could have failed, I just suspect it is either that, or a driver incompatability, but given what you have said earlier (regarfding ROMs and radio ROMs), I think drivers can not be the cause.
I have the same problem. I have a qtek s200 free and only works with movistar. Not recorded in the red orange
XDA Neo signal Problem
Was it always working only on movistar or it started after upgrading to newer ROM versions?
always on movistar
XDA Neo signal Problem
Does anyone have a Qtek (HTC) support link where we can get some answers in this matter or some other tools that we can try?
XDA Neo signal Problem
Are there any other limitations that a gsm operator enables for the devices besides SIM lock?
There are security settings that prevent the use of unauthorised software, but a flash overwrites these files.
XDA Neo signal Problem
What is the difference between Movistar frequency and the other networks?
Could it be that it's the only one that includes GSM-900?
XDA Neo weak or no signal!
Found one tehnical detail while retieving my steps for the WM6 upgrade.
First, before i started upgrading the XDA Neo G4 to WM6, a friend of mine helped me with unlocking the device (from what i see now CID Unlock and SIM unlock also).
The problem is that, from what i saw, G4 can not be CID unlocked, only SIM unlocked, and my friend used LokiWiz02b which i had found to be normaly used for Wizard devices.
Should that have affected my phone in any way that this error appeared?
If it is possible, is there any way we could reverse the process ? (manually or tool )
P.S. I have attached one zip with what i hope to be the program and the backup created (files automatically generated).
XDA Neo weak or no signal!
I see that you even have a warning that we should not perform the CID unlock on a G4 device!
As i said, if it seems like i already did, should that be the problem for this signal loss?
Does anyone know if he can be linked to any parameter configuration?

I know that you guys are very busy with Aku 3.x and Crosbow, but since my first Pocket PC Phone (XDA) never happened something like this with the GSM,so here I am:
-Last friday I was using my Tytn as always, after I sync my tytn with the exchange server, the signal of the GSM fell, at that moment I thought that the network of my carrier (Tim) was with weak signal. Later after many attempts it seems that mine SIM card cannot registered with GSM network.
-I placed the same sim card in another device and it works, after that I have tested another SIm card in my Tytn and worked (unfortunly it wasn't mine : now It seems that none Sim card is working, I've tryied several times search networks in manual mode , and everytime I found the networks "72410" (when should found "Tim" or "t-mobile", but cannot register!
Anyone suffered something similar?
tks in advance!

*I already upgraded the ROM1.35 and Radio 1.27
*The Radio is working perfect
Probably your phone has a net provider lock. Herm_Unlock_v2a.exe should fix this if you are running the unlocker's patched radio.
2 nights without sleep...
Pof ,
Tks for your reply.
Last night I used the www.imei-check.co.uk tool for my HTC Tytn. is this tool that you are talking about?
I´m using my hermes since November when I brought it from Amsterdam (Unlocked).
I had downgraded the Bl to 1.04 (I was 1.09)
Can you imagine why my carrier (TIM BRASIL) blocked my device or IMEI, suddenly ?

After use your suggestion it works again! Now I am afraid to upgrade my old 32k sim card for a new one,one amazing thing was the answer of TIM (my carrier) "They attribute difficulty to register because their networks are instable due the fact that Vivo (other CDMA2000 carrier) is testing GSM/HSPDA networks here in São Paulo (main city of Brazil).

Hi all...
I recently picked up a cheap UK Orange SPV M600 (G4 Model) from eBay, and I've been able to follow all the instructions on here to try a few different ROMs already
The problem I have is that everything works perfectly, except for the phone!
It was (obviously) originally on Orange, but I used LokiWiz to get the SIM unlock code, and then entered that successfully with an O2 SIM in the phone... but now it won't work with any SIM apart from a Greek Vodafone one which I had lying around.
I've tried various Orange and O2 SIMS, and none of them work apart from the Greek Vodafone one
All the SIMs I've tried are recognised by the SIM Manager tool, and I can view and edit the sim contacts etc... but all I get for the phone signal is "searching...", and it never locks on to O2 or Orange... only Vodafone.
Any ideas or suggestions please?
[edit]Just realised that I didn't say i HAVE already tried all of the different radio roms available on here, and none make any difference
Another question?
OK - no replies to my first post, so I guess nobody has any suggestions, but I've done a little more reading myself and I now wonder if the M600 has been previously reported as stolen or lost and is now network blocked by it's IMEI??
As far as I can tell, O2 and Orange will refuse to connect an IMEI blocked phone to the network at all, while Vodafone will allow it to connect, but won't allow you to make or receive calls... which does seem to be what's happening with my old Greek vodafone SIM installed.
Can anyone confirm if my understanding of IMEI blocking is correct, and can anyone tell me how I can find out if a specific IMEI is on the UK blocked list please?
As I said, I bought this through eBay recently, so maybe I could still get my money back if it's been stolen and then sold on through eBay, but I guess I'd need to know that's definitely what's happened before I could try that, so ANY help would be much appreciated.
Bad netiquette to reply to my own OP I know, but I thought that would be better than just editing my original... sorry if anyone gets annoyed at that.
Greetings Friends,
I have been using a HTC P3400( Old Gene) for last 2 years. As a member here of the Gene forum( although an infrequent one) i have been flashing the various ROMs made my many talented people here. Please bear with me if this post seems inordinately long but i want to share complete details of the problem i am facing.
My peculiar problem started when i flashed my Gene with Krazy_about_technology's ROM SumitsProUsers6.5_v2_OldGene.exe. After a couple of days of using it, my Gene would perenially be searching the network to connect to it, without any success. After numerous resets, hard resets, running ghost images etc and unable to resolve the problem, i thought this was an issue with my Vodafone SIM. I got it replaced and the problem still persisted. Post that i flashed the ROM with numerous other ROMs( Mostly Krazys, I find them very useful- Thanks Krazy for sharing your beautiful works), but the problem would just not resolve. The phone would always show searching a network to connect. I could not use SMS, EDGE or any other feature of my service provider.
The issue threw up another interesting find when i was experimenting with various other GSM SIMs. I used an Airtel SIM and the Gene would work good. Then i tried with a BPL Mobile SIM and it works just as good. But the minute i insert a Vodafone SIM, mine or others, it would indicate searching a network, I would not be able to make or receive calls or sms or access any other feature.
I took the handset to a Vodafone center and even they were flummoxed. They couldnt find a solution. They used my SIM card on different handsets and it works.
They thought my handset was somehow only disabling/ blocking only a Vodafone network. They advised me to get in touch with HTC helpline.
I called them and after lenghty discussions, they confirmed this was the first time they had come across such an issue. They asked me to visit their nearest service center. I did . The result was the same. Even the service centre was flummoxed and asked me to see what would happen if i downgraded to WM5.
I did just that with a HTC stock WM5 ROM provided by Vukile in the forums. and gradually upgraded to Krazy's WM 6.1 v 2.5
The problem still persists. I have been asked to visit the service centre once they run some tests or do some research on the problem themselves on a WM 6.1 ROM
In the meantime, I am currently using my Gene with an Airtel SIM and its working perfectly. It just wont accept a Vodafone network. I am using my Vodafone SIM in a Nokia handset.
Could it be an issue with the Radio ROM version? If so, why did it work with other ROMs and still works with Airtel and BPL mobile SIMs?
Is it really true that somehow, my Gene is only blocking Vodafone networks???
Needless to add, i am not a newbie to the world of Flashing and have learnt my way through friends in the forum like Munrus, Ababrekar, Vukile, NJackal, Chayn( He used to make some great ROMs) etc for the past 2 years.
This problem has completely perplexed me and all the techies i know.
I am posting this here in the hope that some brainy chaps might just be able to figure this out.
Thanks for reading the post and for any remedy you can send my way.
Rest assured, i will be keeping this post updated if the service centre is able to come up with a solution.
Cheers!
Ramon

Radio 2.71.90
Yes, there definately seems to be some issue with your Radio ROM. Its an older version anyways, mine is 2.79.90. Radio upgrading is simple, but finding the radio or dumping it from a phone is something i dont know.
I think the problem your phone is having is with one type of freqeuncy. In India, 3 frequencies are available : GSM900, GSM1800, and GSM1900. Most network use GSM1800 in most places and GSM900 in some places While Vodafone uses GSM900 in most places. I guess that is the reason why Vodafone sims are giving problem to you.
Two more things you can try are : If possible, using it in national roaming mode in some other state and Using some other number Vodafone sim. Try if it works. The site given below will give you an idea of what networks use what frequencies where :

Otherwise best is to let service center guys figure it out. They may replace the radio module completly or upgrade the Radio ROM, or Who knows, the whole phone itself

Yes, You seem to be right. Vodafone at GSM900 in Mumbai seems the odd man out. Maybe the Radio ROM is not working for GSM 900 and hence affecting only Vodafone connections.
Still does it explain why the same Radio ROM worked for all this while over so many flashes and failed to connect to one particular frequency suddenly?
I have been trying to get a Radio ROM dump to 2.79.90 to upgrade. No luck yet.
My phone is out of warranty a long time ago. So no chance of getting the whole phone replaced without burning my pockets!!!
Thanks for your inputs Krazy!

Hi I dont think this is a problem with vodafone in mumbai...
Because I am also in mumbai using the vodafone service and also having the same (02.71.90) version of radio.
I think you have made any mistakes while upgrading...
Still check with upgrading Radio ... Let us know the status
Bhushan,
Yes , you may be right. Maybe i did make some mistake while flashing 6.5
None of the links have any Radio ROMs and i havent specifically done any Radio ROM upgrade myself. The only time the Radio ROM changed was when i ran Olipro HSPL.
Has anyone tried out railwayplatform's method?
How many of us are actually using the 2.71.90 version? If I am the only one facing this problem, then most probably the cause would be a bad flashing or M/B issue.
Cheers!
loop mobile a.k.a bpl mobile work on 900mhz so i dont think you have problem with 900mhz network as per my infomation your mobile is more then two year old so i think it time to buy new ..
Ofcourse its old!
But Loop and Airtel work flawlessly still. Its just Vodafone that doesnt.So no real reason why to invest in a new handset now.
Besides Its slowdown time guys!!!
There is a 99% chance there is nothing wrong with the handset.
So i am very keen to see if this problem can be resolved.
Cheers!
Hmm.. this is strange, really strange. Have you tried some other Vodafone sim too? Maybe its just with that particular number? I am just guessing now.
Krazy,
Yes the problem persists for all Vodafone SIMs( mine as well as others).
Have tried it with Vodafone SIMs of myself, my wife's, 3 colleagues at work and 3 at the Vodafone care shop.
This problem has been exihibited for all Vodafone SIMs.
Got a thought from a buddy - All this while i have been flashing with my SIM inside the phone. Does this have anything to do with the problem?
Cheers!
I dont think so...

i dont think so flashing with the SIM inside the phone is causing the problem...and may be you need to visit a HTC service center and ask them to flash an official wm 5 with an updated radio rom and see if it works...just a suggestion...Hope this helps....Good luck mate...
Just a thought
I have flashed my poor Gene and now departed Vox how many times I don't know, and everytime the SIM was inside. So that wont be issue.
Just a thought, are you using Vodafone Prepaid? Because Vodafone, atleast in Kolkata still provide 16 K SIMs and earlier when I had a Vodafone Prepaid number, my Vox would reboot between calls or while browsing the contacts / msgs. This was told to me by the tech support at a nearby Vodafone store that it IS a issue with all sophisticated sets (actually its sort of forcing you to go for a post paid where you will get a 32 K SIM ). So, if you are a prepaid customer, then can you try some one's post paid vodafone SIM and let us know?
Sorry! Duplicate post.
Yes 16 K SIM might be an issue because 16 K Airtel SIM is also creating problems like call drops, people call u but u dont get a notification etc.
I read the same on HTC touch orkut forum.
same prob here
dear friends,
i have also faced same problem, but a little differently.
I am a idea, punjab (formerly SPICE) customer. while roaming in ghaziabad / kale khan/ okhla I found that my phone lost network. it kept on searching on and on.i tried hard and soft resets also. if i did it manually, it wont register, and by any means it gets registered to a network, then 100% sure, call wont make. two sims showed this problem, one- idea and vodafone. but the problem was found while roaming only. i didnt report this in forum as i didnt take it seriously. but seeing this post, i decided to report it to forum so that it can be rectified. its just a feedback, not a complaint.
To Addicted2xda,
I am using a Vodafone Postpaid SIM. All the Vodafone SIMs i tried were post paid SIMs. At Vodafone Care, the guys there tried with a dummy SIM. The problem persisted for all SIMs.
This is really giving me sleepless nights.
Any way i can delete all the data on the phone including all ROMs, like bring it to a pristine state and then start with HSPL and flash a new ROM?? Maybe this may correct the problem - Just shooting in the dark.
To Mehra, Thanks for your feedback.
To HTCP3400,
I had a HTC STock WM5 ROM provided by Vukile. I tried it also. But the stock ROM didnt change the Radio ROM version and the problem existed with it too.
Cheers!
Guys, do you feel this could happen because of the SPL change? I dont know whether SPL is responsibile for sim activities or not, bu I will definately search for it. Apart from that, there is nothing we have changed in the phone. I dont know, but these kind of things never happened with me. Ya one or two times, my phone lost network at some places and keep searching for it even though other phones were working fine, but on soft reset or just turning the radio on and off from comm manager worked everytime. Anyways, lets see waht can be done.
Got this from htc touch orkut community

the problem has nothing to do with ur OS. Its linked with the Radio ROM.
Try diff versions of the Radio ROM which would go well with your network. For instance 3.21.90 rom solves the call drop issue on chennai airtel prepaid to an extent. So you ave gotta experiment with diff versions of radio rom n freeze on the one which would be better for ur network.
Hey vaibhav, can you post the Radio Roms that you have got. That would be good in case when one of us changes his network and gets this problem. Coz I searched for them but couldn''t find em anywhere.
hi all
please i have problem ,the is not network in my phone (no signal)

1. Has this situation been occuring since the beginning? I mean , have you ever connected to the network?
2. Is your phone simlocked? If not , I'd suggest you to check if another sim card (preferably another company) works properly. If works , try changing the sim card first.
No Network
Hi,
Im also struggling with the same problem, its most frustrating being without the fundamental function of a mobile phone. Im on O2. It all started when 2.1 updated on my X10, since then my phone doesnt connect to O2 network.
Ive tried removing the sim, cleaning etc. then putting back in.
Tried swapping my sim with a friend (same network), no problem with the sim.
Just tried re-booting my phone (re-updating), no joy.
The last resort i guess before sending it in to O2 is to throw out of the window?
Any ideas?
Thanks
p.s. new HD camera does nothing but 'force close'.
thx for replay
my phone unlocked n and am try another simcard with another company its woks n am check my sim card in another phone its not work
first am got update (change region nomber method) befor 4 days ago n its work with me after update without problem but yesterday am not there is no network
i feel like my sim card banned from virign network so i don't know where is the problem in my sime card or in virgin network but am not feel i have problem in my phone coz its work with another sim card n my sim not work in another phone.

I remember somebody had problems with new iPhone and old original ATT SIM-cards. ATT just gave a new SIM-card - it was a kind of incompability. Maybe you should go to Virgin tech guys and ask them to fix the problem.
I have strange thing with my phone when it was locked - I used old proxy-SIM and it worked fine with 1.6, but after I flashed it up to 2.1 it worked around 16 hours and eventually told me that there is no service - just like yours. Nobody had similar experience, but look like strange things are possible with those really smart phones. After unlocking - no problems for now.

me too i think i have problem with my sim card, am already contacted the service clients but not solution till now !!!!!
i think after update, x10 will made variation of m-voltage which supported to sim cards, so directly burned( if the variation of voltage related with used area of sim-cards ,that's depends on our operators)

I don't think, the X10 can damage SIM-card since SE always targets world market and takes in attention any regional differences. Virgin is not a real carrier, it is a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) and uses Orange network as an underlying carrier. The last resort is to claim that you lost you phone (with the SIM card, of course) and ask for replacement. They can charge you (I used to pay $25 for T-Mobile USA in the nearest dealer shop, but didn't do any research since I needed the phone badly).
There is another possibility - as I know, ATT automatically changes the plan for their subscribers to a data-plan that is obviously more expensive as they recognize the new phone as a smartphone. It is weird practice, but see - it is possible, so be sure what's going on with your carrier.

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???

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???

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.

Looks fine, but still have the problem of 3G...

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.
