hi everybody, somewhat new to this forum and really enjoying it
i've came across a problem with my att tilt and searched for about 2 days straight looking for a solution..i couldnt find one
so a little history of what i've done with my tilt..
-removed all of att programs by 'clear storage' and then pushing the soft reset before it loads
-downloaded the htc home plugin, htc home customizer, wizard dialer, kaiser tweak with the new xml file from dec 2007, and i have a black theme and a san francisco bridge theme that i switch back to
now the problem is I CANT MAKE/RECEIVE PHONE CALLS/TEXT
one thing i notice is that the network or service it is using (G, E, or 3G) is mostly on E and that is when i cannot make make or received calls or text, even with full bars. i've never had this problem before until about a week now
the last thing i did to my phone was download the new dec 2007 xml file for kaiser tweak. the phone worked fine for about a week until my problem occured
the only time i can get my phone to work is when it is in 3G or G and i rarely see those being used on my phone.
i've tried clear storage a bunch of times to see if it would change but it doesnt
i believe this isnt a network problem because everyone in my house has att, i can only thing its a phone problem
if anyone has any solutions or comments please help me out
i've had this phone since thanksgiving so worst case scenario, i turn it in to htc to get a new one
thanks
anybody ever run into this problem or anything similar with their tilt?
Did you allow the network config tool to run after the first reset? Are you using a custom rom or the default?
what radio are you running?
im not sure what the network config tool is and im using a default rom
im not sure what radio im using, how do i got about finding out what radio im using?
If you don't mind losing all of your data do a hard reset (hold the two soft keys and press the sytlus in the bottom of the phone) Go ahead and set up the device...once this is done a dialogue box should pop up saying something about Autoconfig will take place, or something like that. Let this proceed all on its own...it should after its done ask if you want to soft-reset now, select yes and you should be in business.
what are the two soft keys?
and also..does it matter if i have a simcard in the phone or not?
is the 'clear storage' the same as the hard reset?
hard reset is to hold the two soft keys and the stylus button on the bottom
what are the two soft keys?
Clear Storage essentially is, but mentally for me its different . In any event the soft keys are the unmarked keys directly to the right of your green call button and to the left of the red end button. After autoconfig/customization takes place...it probably will load all the crap back on the device, just FYI. If you truly want to get rid of stuff, you'll probably want to start researching ultra-clean roms, but from the sounds of things you're not quite ready to get into that yet, and you can screw your device if you don't read up on things properly.
i've done the hard reset and let everything load after that..i have all the att bloat ware..but i didnt see a autoconfig for the network
im still having the same problem
my service/network only works on E, whenever it is on G or 3G, its one bar and when i try to call or text, the phone disconnects and goes to E
any other advice?
Hmm, how old is your sim card?
I had the same problem. I had a few 3rd party applications installed. I called Att, they tried calling themselves with obviously no luck (busy signal, or straight to voicemail). I took out the sim card and tried my 2 year old phone and it worked fine. They sent me a replacement 2 days ago and it has been working fine since.
my sim card is about 2 years old i think
it looks like im gonna have to get a replacement
thanks for your help guys
I'd try a new sim card first...had a similar problem with my kaiser at first, but not quite the same. It may save you the days of a non-working unit. Sim cards are free and quick (just go to your local att store)
i used a friends sim card..same thing
i tried calling att TWICE and they said it might be a network problem and told me to call back later???
its obvious i need a new phone
who should i contact and what should i do..im trying to return my phone to get a working one

How long have you had your phone?
If it is under 30 days, go back to an AT&T Store (even if you bought it via phone or online) they will exchange it for you. If you don't have an account, MAKE SURE you take your receipt. If you are an AT&T customer you don't even have to bother with the receipt, they will just look up your account for you.
If you are an AT&T customer (may also apply if your not) and have had your phone over 30 days, then you have to call warranty exchange department. 1-800-801-1101
They will go through a few steps with you, then will make arrangements to send you out a new phone.
BEWARE:
Make sure you have LOTS of free time when you call, you WILL be on the phone forever lol.
I am on my 5th Tilt, I hope you have better luck than I have so far
*BUMP* I recently came across the same problem and I am only able to send and recieve text messages. I can not recieve or send calls but I get a new voicemail notification when 1 is recieved.... HELP!!!
My TyTN II developed a strange problem during the last week. It’s all started one morning when I suddenly discovered that I can’t make a call. Every call that I tried to place ended by itself even before I hared a first deal tone. I’ve made a soft reset and the phone took unusually long to find a local network (Orange). I call the network operator and was told that in my area they don’t have any problems. After some more trials I’ve made a hard reset. Reinstalled my software and it seamed to work out. But about three days later the problem returned and in addition to it the TyTN eat up almost fully charged battery over night (just once, it didn't happen again).
I couldn’t place a call again, but this time a hard reset didn’t help. What helped is that I changed the network type from “Auto” to a GSM. That means that I have excluded 3G WCDMA service.
Now, at least during the last two days, the Kaiser phone is working, but without 3G. I visited the local technical center (they are not specialized in HTC phones) and they told me that they can’t see anything particular wrong with the phone, but they are not a specialized HTC service center. So, what’s wrong with it? During the last 3 months I had 3G services without a problem. Sending the phone to a specialized HTC center (abroad) may be costly and they also may not find anything wrong with it, because phone if set back to the Auto mode sometimes even finds the 3G network.
Did somebody have a similar problem? Please help. What it could be? Problem with the phone? May be the SIM? Or just the Orange service network got crazy?
I have an original ROM:
ver. 1.56.405.5 (08/28/07),
Radio 1.27.12.11,
Protocol 22.45.88.07H
Hi there,
I had exactly the same problem. I first thought it might be with my sim card but it worked fine on other phones.
I have since sent the phone to HTC and had it repaired -- works fine now.
Hope this helps.
I had the same problem on my Kaiser when it first arrived from an ebay sale. Worked fine in GSM/Edge mode, but would not make or receive calls in 3G mode at all. Finally sent it back to HTC in the US who repaired it at no cost (thanks guys!) and shipped it back to me.
It's been working fine since then.
I read lots of others who have had this problem and the fix seems to be returning to HTC for repair.
/drt
I had this problem and still have. I send my phone back 4 times. First time something went wrong. 2nd time it got a motherboard replacement (for the 3G chip) it work even better then when I bought. It lasted for 14 days untill the 3G failed again. I send it back got and Worked for 1 day again re-send it they called me said it's working fine with them (3G options) and they can't find any problems with it. I received the phone back. Worked for 1 day again on 3G then again the problem. I have checked with my provider no problem. Tried other sim cards issue is still there. I'm keeping it here till the Xperia gets out then I'm sending it back untill the 3G issue gets fixed.
No matter what issue this phone has, it's the best on the market imo, that's why I keep up with it.
Sometimes people call me and get a message saying my phone is off or out of service. But when I look at it, it often shows 4 bars of service..
When I call someone, the problem disappears temporarily, and I start receiving calls again (and I receive all the SMS's I was supposed to get at once), only to appear again later for no reason (a soft reset also solves it). It's not related to location, it also happens when I spend the day at home (where I get a strong signal).
I don't think it's a operator problem either, since my operator is known for it's good services, and other people who use "normal" phones never had such a problem.
I tried 3 different ROMs (dutty's hybrid, Hyperdragon and AthineOS) and 3 different radios (dutty's radio (1.65 something), hyperdragon's (1.70 something), and eMo radio). Right now I'm using AthineOS with hyperdragon III's radio, and almost no programs installed..
This problem happens both in 3G and EDGE mode.
Anything I can do about it?
Send it in for repair?
Seems you tried all you could...
Don't think I can send it for repair, since it's an AT&T Tilt and I'm not even in the US..
Guess I'm outta luck then
Anyone else have any ideas?
have you tried the sim in another handset, sounds like a network problem to me.
3G Network
Are you using 3G Network?
Sometime I use 3G band and even It show good signal I loose phone calls.
I changed to GSM and no phone calls loose.
This happens in São Paulo/Brazil but...
EDIT: Sorry. Now I saw that you reported this problem also using GSM band.
Thanks.
I am not sure if you're using your US SIM card in a foreign country?
Maybe you just forgot to enable INTERNATIONAL ROAMING before you left ... ?
I'm having the same problem
I seem to have started with the same problem about a week ago. A couple people complained that they called me but it rang twice and went to voicemail - My phone never rang. However, after I made a call (or apparently did something to "wakeup" the phone), I would get the voicemail notification (2 hours later).
I tried reseating the SIM card, but then it went to "SIM Card Missing". I did a hard reset, but that didn't help. I took it back to AT&T and they replaced the SIM Card. That seemed to work again, and certainly would have been a convenient fix (bad SIM card - too easy). So I've just spent all weekend reloading all the apps, but now it's happening again!!
The symptoms are; After I reboot the device, I can receive one or two calls, then it doesn't ring anymore (the caller hears 2 rings then it goes to voicemail). If I cycle the Phone radio button in the Comm Manager, or cycle power, it comes back to life for 1 call, then craps out again.
I'm just using the standard AT&T ROM (without the Bloatware after this past reset) and the standard/default radio version 1.27.12.11
The only thing that I have noticed that seems different lately is that the "Comm Manager" task is always running when I look at the running programs (which I don't think it used to) I had also recently installed Garmin XT.
The device is of course 1 yr + 2 weeks (so I assume just out of warranty)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Hmmm,
what I would try, is, to just make a hard reset, load only my contacts to the phone and run it for a while to monitor its "Incalling" behavior. If everything seems to be fine, I would go ahead and start installing an application, then monitor my device again for a while, if everything is fine I will go ahead install the next application ... and so on. That is just to make sure that no 3rd party application causes this problems.
BTW:
I don't think that GARMIN causes this problem. I used to run Garmin on my HTC too (v5.0) until I came accross SYGIC McGuider (which works much better and card scrolling is much smoother than Garmin).
Well,
to come back to the point: if you get the same problems without loading any 3rd party application on your device, then I would recommend trying another ROM (best advice: go with the HTC stock ROM). If it also happens with the other ROM then it might be hardware related and difficult to fix.
Thanks - I knew that's what I should do, I just didn't want to do it after having spent all weekend reloading and configuring it. I thought I had read somewhere about Garmin having to have the phone radio on to work, so I was hoping there was a setting somewhere that I was missing that was powering the radio down. But..... I suppose it's time to go back to common sense and just do the reset
So far it seems to be working now. I'll give it a few days with just the basics and then start reloading one at a time.
Thanks for the quick response!
Spoke too soon
looks like I spoke too soon, it's doing it again - seems like it was fine for about 3 hours, but now .....
guess it's time to try my luck with AT&T - time to see how good their customer service is

no, I was just using the default browser.
I've got nothing installed on it at this point so I'm guessing it's hardware related.
Over the last couple months I had been experiencing some strange battery drainage (not related to the GPS issues). I don't know if that was a symptom or not. It just seems like the radio is going to sleep somehow - it wakes up for a little while if I sync my email, cycle the radio via comm manager, or cycle the power.
Anyone know if there is a setting somewhere that controls that? (sure would be nice if it were that simple)
The AT&T store was basically useless, all they did was give me the phone number for the warranty department (but since I'm 2 weeks past warranty, he doesn't think they'll help me), and of course offer to upgrade me to the Fuze for $375 - no thanks!
I've had the same issue (I think). I too think that it seems to happen when I have a 3G data connection active and moving back to GPRS (non 3G) seems to make it better....
I'm on a standard UK ROM and using BTMobile as a provider.
I was driving down the motorway the other day and overtook a friend. He rang me and went straight to voicemail. I then got a text to say that I had a voicemail and rang him back.
I was running TomTom Traffic at the time so would have had a data session enabled....
I think its something to do with the data session sometimes not letting a call through but can't put my finger on anything and certainly can't find an option to change any settings...
Also, even at home, I'm constantly picking up my phone to see that it "has no signal" and the exclamation mark is displayed - so calls aren't coming through - but it then connects and shows a three-bar strength signal. Don't understand why it keeps dropping out, but I get a 3G connection at the front of my house and an ordinary G connection at the back and I think that it sometimes to stay connected to the 3G connection for data even when the phone signal is very poor and it would be better dropping that and connecting at "old" GPRS speed...
Same on the train on the west coast main line out of London. I think having the 3G turned on causes the phone signal to drop out completely more than when 3G is turned off, as the phone tries to hang on to the signal of a 3G cell and doesn't successfully switch over to the next "non 3G" cell whilst in a call.
have you tried a new radio such as NIKI's?
well, AT&T warranty was even less than useless. Home phone, Internet, and Wireless all through AT&T and the best they can do is "see if they could get me a deal on a new phone" or refer me to HTC technical support. Nice customer service AT&T!!!
HTC technical support was actually trying to be helpful, once she found out I already did a hard reset, she referred me to their warranty group. They looked up the S/N and it's still under their warranty (I guess theirs is 15 months after manufacture date). Now the only problem is I have to send it in to them to see if it's covered under warranty, and of course be willing to go without my phone for 2 weeks (and pay them a yet to be determined amount if they decide it's not under warranty).
I'd like to try a different radio, but looks like there's too much for me to read up on - I need to get the device fixed, I've already lost too much time with it being messed up and me screwing with it.
Update
so this morning I was ready to throw in the towel and send the device back to HTC. At least they were willing to help me out, unlike AT&T.
I get to work, and of course the phone seems to be working (which isn't unusual, it works for a little while then craps out). Come lunch time, it's still working (now this is unusual, it must be a fluke, I'll give a couple more hours before I package it up). 4:00 and it's still working! Now I'm starting to wonder if it's got to do with the cell towers near my house (and the AT&T store since it did it for them too).
I email my buddy who lives about 1/2 mile away and also has a Tilt just to see if he's had any similar problems. He calls me back laughing. There's 5 People in his office with the exact same problem (and not all Tilts either).
So to make a short story long....... it appears to be a problem with AT&T, NOT the device (but Thank You very much AT&T for the incredible customer care you demonstrated and for trying to screw me into buying new devices for outrageous prices)
So at this point, I'm not sure if it's that AT&T has fixed the issue across the board, or if it was the "Resync the routing" that the online chat person tried last night that finally propagated across the network (I assume so that AT&T can find my phone in order to route the calls to me).
I guess we'll see if it does the same thing when I get back closer to home tonight, but I'm relieved that it appears to be fixed.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions! Now I have a little more time to read about how I can screw up my phone on my own schedule - all the practice of resetting it and reinstalling everything, and seeing how much faster it is has inspired me
Hi bbaydiver
Did Att fix your problem? I had same issue with my tilt 8925. I tried all the orginal Att rom "same problem". After couple minute, I can't receive and make call. thanks

I didn't tried asking AT&T for a new sim card. but I will call them to change the sim card. Does anybody know how to disable the 3G function?
Just a "me too..."
Hello everyone. I just wanted to report that I'm having the same issues...they started about a week or so ago.
I've had my AT&T Tilt for about 8 months now (it's a warranty replacement for my first tilt, bought in July...so of course, I'm out of warranty). I recently had problems receiving calls, and then I started being unable to make calls, even though my phone shows a decent signal...anywhere from 4 bars to 2 bars. When dialing, it'll say "Dialing..." for a few seconds...and then it clicks off. A soft reset will fix things temporarily, but that's it.
I'm running the stock AT&T ROM (I'll check the version number if someone thinks it'll help), and I've tried doing a hard reset AND replacing the SIM card. Same effect.
Someone please let me know if they resolved this problem. AT&T offered me an HTC Fuze...but I'm extremely wary of other phones by this manufacturer. I'm very, VERY tired of phones crapping out on me after having just spend a couple of hundred bucks on them. At this point, I'm just looking for something reliable. If someone else here has had problems with the Fuze, please let me know...not to start any fights around here, but I'm actually thinking about going with the iPhone.
Thanks.
Hi all,
I'm new to windows-base phone, there are two problems that I have with my TD2, and I don't seem to find the answers on the forum.
For some reasons, my TD2 has no problem of updating weather, but it cannot go online at all. I don't how to fix it. Recently, it pops up two windows constantly,
One says " Cannot Connect. Dialed: The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings."
Second one says: "There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in your registered home network."
I bought my phone in Hong Kong, and I just installed Hard-SPL to change the language back to English. Ever since I installed it, the phone keeps popping up those two windows. I have tried to re-installed it, it worked until yesterday. I also tried factory reset, it is still not working. I really don't what the problems are and how to fix them.
HELP, PLZ!!!!!!!
Thanks,
Avril
Just a thought: borrow a SIM on a different network from a friend and replace your SIM with it, and the phone should offer to import the new network settings.
Then put your SIM back and the phone should re-import your network settings again. It's just a stab in the dark really...
The other thought (which affects users in the UK on t-mobile) the phone imports a "proxy server" setting from the SIM which is wrong. You have to delete this in Settings/Connections before you can go online with Opera.
I tried your thought #1, but it didn't work. I don't live in UK. I'm USA, and using AT&T. Are there any other ways that I can do it?
Thanks,
Avril
My N1 will not reconnect to a mobile network if it has been sitting for a few hours in a no-coverage area, such as a building. I cannot get it to reconnect, even after refreshing the network search. This action only leaves me with no result or a message saying that there was an error in searching or connecting to mobile networks. The only solution is to restart the phone. Every time I try to turn the phone off after this error has occurred, the shutdown sequence hangs until either I become frustrated and do a battery pull, or it automatically restarts and do a battery pull, or it automatically restarts itself. Furthermore, the phone used to give me an error notification saying that the phone does not have carrier service. Now, it does not. Furthermore, the phone used to give me an error notification saying that the phone does not.
I tried uninstalling all my programs and nothing has worked for me. I've also tried toggling the airplane mode to no avail.
I'm considering putting on the cyanogen ROM to see if it would fix this error, but I am hesitant to void my warranty. It's a pretty serious problem as I'm very frequently in a building where I don't get service. It's quite frustrating to have to wait to reconnect to a mobile network once I leave the building and hope that the error didn't occur or have to do a battery pull every time I realize that the phone simply won't reconnect.
Can anyone suggest any solutions?
Mod it. What have you got to lose? Your overall performance will increase. The radio signal may even improve. Your call.

thanks for the tip. i've been thinking about it. it's the warranty i don't want to lose. eh i'll keep thinking about it.
this phone sucks. it's glitchy, can be sluggish. iphone got dumbed down but at least its functions work.

Hey!
You dont want to lose your warranty, then use it!
Your phone seems to be faulty...
My phone is experiencing the same problem as of yesterday. Won't connect. Wonder if it's a T-Mobile issue.

Its only glitchy coz you have stock rom
Cyanogen is really stable and adds alot of features / functionality.
Fair enough you dont want to lose warranty but i remember in the general thread that lots of hardware failures and others can still fix your n1 under warranty even though they unlocked the bootloader.
I too have this problem, hopefully the 2.2 update will fix the problems.
Can you guys confirm if its android or your service provider thats causing this...

I have the same problem and it's starting to bother me a lot because my car is parked in a garage with no coverage. My in-car BT then becomes useless as my phone won't reconnect to the network once I exit the garage
I just called Google support 10 mins ago about this and they went through normal protocol to reset to factory settings. They then called Tmo and let them know what the issue was while I was still on the phone. Tmo unregistered my phone from the network while my battery was taken out of my phone and then reregistered my phone to the network. Tmo asked me to monitor this for a few days and call them directly (not Google) if the issue persists. They will then elevate this to a higher level because they feel this would be a network problem, and not a hardware issue.
Hope this helps! Please post what you have tried to solve the problem!

^ it worked! my phone reconnects to the cellular network after what Google/Tmo did for me on the phone!
I haven't tried calling tmobile, but it is NOT something that will be fixed by hopping on cyanogen's rom. I've been rooted on cyanogen's rom for quite some time and this problem still exists on my n1 which is SUPER annoying. I will try calling tmobile to see if they can fix it on their side, but rooting is not the fix here.
I had the same issue. I used anycut and phone info shortcut and changed the wireless default setting to us and it totally fixed the problem. Have not had that issue again.

I resolved this by going to the T-Mobile store where they replaced my SIM card. They made a copy to a new SIM card, installed it and everything works fine.
For the record symptoms included:
* "Error while searching for network" message
* Found networks but said "your SIM card is not authorized for this network" when connecting
* Network listed as "No service" or "Emergency calls only | T-Mobile"
I get this too with an at&t phone.
Have asked for a replacement device from HTC (since the reception is crappy to begin with).
I also have audio quality problems when reception is only 1-2 bars.
Will see if the new phone is better.
I had this problem regularly. It hasn't happened once since I upgraded to Froyo, so I think it has been fixed in that release.
sometimes have this too, i fix it by going to the settings > wireless > mobile networks > APN. at first i deleted and retyped my password in the selected APN, now i just click my network in the APN settings, don't change anything and leave. It immediately reconnects after that.
edit: and i have stock froyo & live in belgium.
I got a new, replacement phone from HTC today.
This new phone has a BIG PROBLEM with this issue.
Even if I am only without reception for a couple of seconds (go through the garage, etc.) it will not connect to any network until I reboot.
My old phone would only experience this problem maybe 25-35% of the time.
Very, very annoying!!!

I had similar issues and called tmobile support. I was first linked to Google support. They went through the similar process as described by in the first page. (#*#*4636*#*# select USA band etc). While I was on hold, they called t mobile tech support and had them reset network connection and tried to get me onto a different tower etc.
Tmobile support stated that my sim card (had for about 2 years) was the cause of the issue as they can't handle smartphones as well as their new sim cards. They also said the new sim should improve reception and connection stability (Don't see how a new sim could do this but what do I know?). Moreover, they noted my account and told me to go into the nearest store for a new sim card. Went into the nearest tmobile store told them the issue, they pulled up my account and gave me a new sim. Took less then 5 minutes and I have not had the issue with staying connected to the tmobile network.
I will update this after a few days to see if I still have the issue.
I have the same problems that i cannot connect to network here in germany. first i think it was my sim card, but befor i had another provider (E-Plus) where i had the same problems with reconnecting to network. and one day my eplus sim card is broken so i had to buy a new one by t-mobile. i have tried a lot of roms from here (cyanogen/ 5.0.7 /5.0.8T5 Kangorama rodriquezstyle and leofroyo) everyone seems to have the same problems with reconnecting to network. i hope im not alone with my problems and someone can help.
hmm...
Count me as another. I just upgraded to froyo and it went beserk. Had no service for a while. It would only come on after constantly tapping "select network automatically" until it kicked me out of the menu. It started getting better but kept kicking me out of 3g. I set it to stay always on 3g and it seems to be better... still I'm going to call tmobile and see if I can get a new sim as well.
Thanks for the info guys!
