Hi,
I've recently updated my MDA Vario to the new dtuch QTek rom (2.18 I believe). Everything went smoothly and my phone now has a much higher standby time. However, in the settings menu for my GSM network it says 'no service' where it should say 'T-Mobile. I tried softreset, switching flightmode on/off, using 'automatic' and 'manual' to select a network, removing SIM card, but nothing works? Right now, I can't receive any calls even tho people hear it like I'm just not anwsering my phone and the 'call' hardware button or the 'phone' button in the windows menu don't even open up the call screen where I can enter a number.
I only CID unlocked my device before I updated to the new rom so I am not sure if I needed to SIM unlock as well but I don't think so.
Can anyone help me out with this problem? Thanks in advance
anyone? I am beginning to think this is a serious problem... maybe my telephone is defect? :S Or do you think this is just a software problem?
try flashing it back to the old ROM
Can I just overwrite the 2.18 ROM with the older T-Mobile rom again? And if anyone else knows a better solution that does not require another rom 'update' please let me know!
Also, I've found out that a hard reset didn't work, in fact, I couldn't hardreset because when I needed to enter the Call key to confirm the reset, the key just didn't work... :?
Okay, after downgrading again to the T-Mobile 1.6 rom the phone seems to get a signal again? How can it be that the new QTek rom doesn't get a signal but the old T-Mobile rom does? I DID CID unlock the device, and altho I am unsure if it worked, I assume it did, since the QTek install went flawlessly. I did NOT do a sim unlock, but I figured that wasn't needed since I would stick to T-Mobile anyway?
Sorry man, I've no idea. The main thing is that you now know that there is nothing wrong with your hardware.
If the radios are different versions I guess you could try keeping the old radio and updating everything else.
Good luck.
On the ftp there is a tmobile file voor connection settings

Hi all!
My Tilt is having a weird problem, which started all of a sudden on 7th morning.
No matter how muchever i try, the phone radio does not connect to my Mobile Network. It keeps saying "searching....." till eternity.
I was using Dutty's V4 + 1.27.12.32 radio.
All was working fine till today early morning. Around 10 am i try to connect to gprs, and i am not able to, then i do a soft reset, and then i see that my phone cannot connect to my mobile network at all. My mobile network is AIRTEL, in India. The phone keeps saying "searching..." and never stops that and hence now i am not connected to my network.
I have flashed different radio roms since morning - .17, .11, .32 again but no luck. Then i reflashed it with Schaps latest 4.33 rom (wm6), but still no result.
Then i thought maybe my sim is bad, and so i put my wife's Vodafone sim, and that worked! (Vodafone works on a different band than Airtel. this i know coz i have a SonyEricsson Mobile handset 3g-enabled of "3" from australia which works only with Vodafone in India, and not with any other network)
Then i put my sim back and it doesnt work again. While my sim is working perfect in my wife's iPhone.
can someone please help me in this, and tell me what i can do?
i wonder if the phone is somehow network locked or something like that ?
i sure did HARDSPL when i first got the TILT one month back. I have also tried flashing with WM6.1 and its respective radios, but with no success.
Please suggest what can i do to get it back up. Its really strange as its been working perfect till morning 8am.
Thanks a lot guys!
I'd go get a new SIM card and test from there.
did you try checking the phone settings to see if anything there might be the cause of the problem? there is the ability to select/override band selection in the phone settings, along with other things you can try to change.
Thanks to you, Grizzley & Somynex...
1. I did get a new simcard and still its unsuccessful.
2. Yes i tried changing the phone settings for changing the BAND, and there seems to be a problem on one of the bands.
VODAFONE works on the 800 band in india. and AIRTEL works on the other one, which is not working...
any other solutions please???
!BUMP!
Anyone got any idea on this? Please help me guys! please advise me what i can do to get it back...
COuld it be a hardware related problem?
!BUMP!
Please help guys, still looking for a solution for this problem... my fone is lying dead like this!

I tried a new SIm card .. Didn't work.. I tried at&t card didn't work..
Finally I now have the old rom that came with it back on it incase I try to call the manafcature to see if they can fix it.. Please helppppp.. Will donate if some help me fix it. Thanks
Thanks a lot guys!
So I am sort of a newb to this whole rom and flashing thing. I have a AT&T Fuze as my main phone. I just got a hold of an O2 Serra. I would like to see if could use the Serra under the AT&T network. I put my AT&T SIM card in the O2 phone and I can make phone calls, send and recieve text messages etc. I really want to try to see if I can get the AT&T "theme" on the phone instead of the O2 "theme". Is there any way of doing this? Or could I maybe even just go back to the stock HTC TouchPro/Diamond software that the phone shipped with straight from the factory? Also i read about the issue with 3G on this phone because there is a difference between European and US 3G networks, is there a fix out for this yet?
One of the main issues that I am having so far is that i know i need to flash a HardSPL on there. I have downloaded the HardSPL installation files and everytime I try to install it, I get a connection error message. I go thru the install process. The phone is attatched to WMDC, it has a full battery, does not have a SIM or SD card in it and has a full battery. It is even able to recognize the ROM Version off the phone, but then when it's time to install it gives me ERROR 260: CONNECTION. Nothing ever pops up on the phone screen. Sometimes the phone prompts me to approve the install of "EnterBootLoader" and when I click yes on that to go ahead and install, the screen just fades, and the phone has to be hard-reset and i have to re-setup the device, and go through the whole process again anf try to install HardSPL again, with no luck sofar.
does anyone have any solutions to my problem? have u guys experienced this before? any help is much appreciatted.
Thanks
Carlos
nobody eh?
Hello everyone.
I'm beat. I was up to silly o'clock this morning trying to get this thing working.
I purchased to unlocker from this site as I have no posts. I've tried many different roms and radios but I still get no service when I plonk in my o2 sim card.
I have a touch HD that was registered to the orange network that I bought off a friend of mine. I wanted it to work with o2 so I downloaded the unlocker program (paid for) and did all the updating and unlocking that entails.
I then tried a few different roms (even tried win 6.5 but my battrey was getting drained at a silly rate)
The problem I have is that whichever radio I get it's not working with my O2 sim card. I have the little G symbol but it keeps asking for data connection setting and the phone is showing no service. I have even tried radios from other phones with no luck. I'm on the offical htc 1,56,401,0 (43972) WEE rom at the moment and the 1.12.25.16 radio and I'm also getting the greenscreen at the load up but a quick on off fixes that.
I searched the forums but still no joy.
What do I have to do?
Please, you are my only hope.
Thanks in advance.
Do you have the right SPL? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217)
I used to be Orange, had it unlocked, and am now on o2 with no problems. I use 1.17 radio but I don't think that's the issue
Tried it just now.
Thanks for the advice.
Tried the HSPL Wrapper on that thread, updated the radio to 1.17 but it's still showing no service. Any other ideas?
Thanks again.
did you try put another sim card inside the phone?
I just have O2 cards atm. Still now joy though.
I am a failure.
I've just done a cracking stew in the slow cooker. First time making dumplins. I can rebuild and format a PC in less that two hours but this thing has got me beaten. I suppose I could use it for an e-book reader.
I've now got SPL-1.56.Olnex on there with the blackstonehenge Rom.
and 1.17.25.09 radio but it still won't connect.
If anyone has any better ideas I will make them some stew and dumplins. Geographical location allowing, and if the gf lets me have friends round.
Thanks anyways.

i think the OP said that they have bought this already
i used to be on orange, now on O2.
how old is the O2 simcard? i think this is the most likely cause
Yes, I already purchased the unlocker. I also tried a newer sim card that was a Christmas present. I'll nip out today and get a 99p sim card from another network. Any suggestions which would be best?
Works with vodaphone
Yes, it registers and works with a vodaphone simcard. It also works with t-mobile but I can't send or recive calls on that (mightbe a sim thing with a need to top up or something) But a new o2 PAYG sim card and my old one still bringing up no service.
Anyone got any suggestions about any manual settings I can do?
Cheers,

Your operator does have any rom for Touch HD on their site? If it does, try it and see if it works.
Also read this page, seems to be an O2 rom for Blackstone devices http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Versions .
This page may be usefull too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444170

Hi henshu. Have you tried checking your band settings. Make sure they all are set to Auto. Tap on phone then options then band.
Running a PDA2k with Dr Two's 6.1 rom and 1.12 radio.
New Zealand has two sim card cellular operators both operating on the same band, Vodafone and 2Degrees.
I've just installed the 6.1 rom, and when starting the device, the phone function is off and won't turn on.
I have a Vodafone Cab (Vodafone_NZ_PPC_V1.12.00.3) Which I installed, after resetting and putting in a vodafone sim card, the device turns on with the phone active and working and I'm able to dial out.
I turn off the device, put in a 2degrees sim card, and it shwos as the phone function being off and won't turn on.
I turn off the device and put the Vodafone sim card back in - Now it's the same problem as before, phone is off.
I reinstalled the Vodafone cab, reset the device, and now the phone works.
This is very confusing. Does anything have a guess as whether upgrading to 1.15 radio might help with these problems?
i think you should try upgrading the radio, same happened to me since i upgraded to wm 6.5....just in my case, it's a little bit weirder....(my wifi, bluetooth, and phone was too annoying, my phone could be turned off automatically even when when i'm using it) beside, upgrading radio roms shouldn't trash your ba(i think so....) you wouldn't need to hard reset after upgrading....that's all i can help,for now..well, good luck..and one more thing, in my case, i didn't upgrade the radio, because i can't enter the bootloader...as my power button was broken....
