I got an XDA I and cannot get a signal no matter what I try.
ROM 3.17.03 Eng
Radio Version 4.21.00
Protocol Version 32S54
Can anyone give me any clues as what I could try??
do a backup and try a soft reset if that doesnt work go for a hard reset if still doesnt work call tech support for o2
regards

Helyuk, if you tell o2 that the signal problem arose when updating the radio to 4.21 they may help you. Just to clarify, you are getting no signal bars? Or is it that you cant make receive calls even though you have signal bars?
No Bars at all
No signal bars at all
Where do you live? Do you have PWA10A1 or PWA10B1 device (check the back of your XDA)?
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

Ext ROM : 1.18.256.104

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
I have very weird issue with my Niki
I have very poor signal but only with one specific GSM Service - Play ( I'm not sure that you know about their exist
if I change my SIM to other there is no problem - very strong signal
i've already tried more of the Radio Roms for Niki and I don't know what to do

Did you have this problem with your provider previously on your old phone in the same area?
Two options i can think of...
1) Contact your provider
2) Upgrade your radio
