Hi from Spain...
Recently i have bought a 2020i ( really was a gift from girlfriend) , O2 totally free. At least and according to different post and advised i have just configure it and install recommend programs so it running perfectly. Everything was oK till i change mobile company from Vodafone to AMENA ( spain).
Now , and i dont know why , i have a "G" icon in the top. According to different post it means i have the posibility to connet a GPRS net and is constantly "searching" for this GPRS net. I have note too that bettery is going down and down ( usually i finish daily use of PPC with 75-80% of it and now , for example is 52% and day is not finished).
My question is if there is any way to remove this "G" icon and change the way the PPC search GPRS net all the time ( enable, for example this option). I know that this "G" icon doesn´t means i am connecting to GPRS ( i do not suffer for my montly bill¡¡¡¡ :lol: :lol: ) but for me is very important not to finish with battery life ( i have no chance every day to charge it) . Dont mind if is necessary to change key in registry but need to finish with this problem.
I have been searching for past post to try to solve it but...( correct me if necessary) i have not found anything about it
thanks in advance and go on with it...( you know how helps this forum for beginners like me)
Hi all again...
Going to make an autoreply
I have installed this program: GB SOFT TWEAK. Whit it i have been just solved the problem. This program allows two important ( for me ) things:
1- turn off GPRS connection or signal if you want
2- Not to search GPRS net when radio turns on.
Of course , G icon has disappeared and battery life as been improved a lot.
Hope this post solve this problem to anyone more.
Thanks

Hey everyone ..
i was using my Blueangel normaly and so happy with it until i faced this problem before 2 days ..
I was texting my gf while i was out and kept on even though the battry gave me a warrny that its really low .. i ignored and kept SMS's her until it went off.
i went home charged my device but its not connecting to the network. it shows either "No Service" (where it shows X beside the signal tower) or "Searching" (where it shows ! beside the signal tower).
Please anyone knows how to turn it on im really in a bad situation here.
Note: just to let you know im using WM5 Hemi's rom and upgraded it today to Xplode's rom just hoping it would help.
Well when i tried another sim on my blueangel it worked and my sim card on another mobile it worked also. im really losing my brain
44 views no one have a slight idea..
anyways thanks alot everyone for visiting
Hi,
All I can suggest is to re-install radio rom! prob 1.15.
If not that then ensure flight mode is NOT active, and battery's fully charged
Also when you reset BA, on first screen does the R show a none?
If so reset, twice, its a common problem with BA and WM5, it isn't able to intialise the radio rom before WM5 boots.
It seems wierd that another sim worked on your BA, must be a faulty/damaged sim.
I also note you've tried the non-working sim on another phone and that works! Wierd that too!
Hope that helps,
Sunny
Have you tried to manually select the network in the "Phone" settings screen? I've heard of similiar problems being fixed by that.
well after i asked here and there and got disappointed with I-Mate people.. they know nothing at all
an IT in my company told me the problem is with my sim card. its damaged cause of the change in the battry power (as he says) it damaged the frequency that my mobile use to read the sim so there for it would work on any mobile except mine.
so i would change the sim but it needs me ages to get free and do that.
THANKS ALOT TO EVERYONE ATLEAST READ MY THREAD OR TRIED TO HELP
YOU GUYS HERE ARE THE BEST
By the way
sunny: the Radio is already 1.15 from ages. but thanks alot for trying to help me.
Fraser: I tried to manualy select the network but it says there is no network which is funny cause there is 4 networks in my area.. actuly im working with the same operator so im inside the tower LOL. the signal streth is the best here.
Thanks alot mates
No problem!
Thats what we're here for!
Regards
Same problem
I once had the same problem. Now I'm no genius when it comes to these phones and it actually took me a whole week to get an idea of what the hell happened to my phone. Basically, these phones are Quad Band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) and for some reason after I upgraded I lost my signal. I found a little application that let me reselect my band (its not built into windows for some reason) and that solved my problem. I just selected "Auto select" and the problem was solved after a soft reset.
Now, I can not remember what that application was but maybe that can give you an idea of what to search for.
No Service issue

Hi, is there more 'democratic' way to resolve this issue than reseting BA twice?
After installation of xplode's R4 for noobs an old version of R 1.06 was left on BA. Thinking that this was a reason for No Service of the phone I dumped latest R , but double f..reseting necessity still persists ...
Is that a normal thing to reset twice such an advanced device when you want even just to call smbdy? Thanks
there is a lil bug in my roms, after totally draining both bateries when you power it on it says NONE for radio you have to soft reset it again in order to work. I have never had a band selection problem but it is possible reason for this

Hi hi there! First of all please accept my deepest appreciation for such a great work you have done to make us - PPC ordinary users - little bit more happy Just one small note - is it possible to upgrade your downlodable R4 file with all necessary ROMs - Radio, etc., etc. With the intention that every Noob trying to upgrade his/her BA, should do it in a push of one button - not searching for separate latest ROMs and HowTo instructions? Thanks for your time!
P.s. Sorry it seems came out little bit off topic....
well it is possible but i have no time to do it. or you can try to copy the radio nbf file into the folder of the nk.nbf and run the upgrade utility
Any solution on this matter ? I am using Helmi MW6 ROM with radio 1.15.00 and i'm having the same problem.
I've searched the forum but found no solution yet.

It´s my first time with this kind of "phone", so i hope that you can help me!
To test the internet connection, i tryed to use the wireless I have at home, everything when alrigth , but when the connection failed, the diamond connected to another ( the operator) and i started to spend €.
there is any way to avoid this ??
I mean if the connection fails , can i have some control , choosing what to do then ??
THANKS ,,
Hi guys, I am posting here just to solve one issue of my father's diamond.
I have one raphael, my father got a diamond, and it is different on provider informations.
My raphael automatically detects the provider's configuration, installing it on connections, I tryied it with my father's diamond, and his diamond doesnt take the provider's information, I dont know why. So, I have just configured it by my hand manually, using the necessary informations, all ok, it worked fine, he can work on internet, but the problem is that all times he power on his phone, come the warning that is trying to take provider's information, and automatically goes to the connections on settings tab, its a warning, I think that the cell phone doesnt detect that it is manually typed, and try again with a global icon on hardware's tasks.
Once I have already configured it, I would like to KILL this warning, he is a big disapointed with it, that appears sometimes.
Thanks for now
Hi....first of all...I am not an expert! I think the solution might be to go to 1) Settings......2)Connections and click on the connection setup symbol, (if you have it) this should set it up for you.....hope this helps
It the PDA goes automatically, but always repeat when i power on the phone
the last answer:flash the other rom
I will find it, but I dont know if I is easy to locate the portuguese rom as it is installed on his fone
hi!
i'm a newbie @ this forum, so i hope that these questions are ok to ask & my english isn't the worst..
i'm from germany and i got the touch diamond from vodafone in germany..
now i've got 3 problems..
1. if i want to sync emails with my gmx account (pop3) i got a message, that i'm not able to sync it.. "synchronisation problem" maybe it's because the proxy doesn't allow that? i got a imap email account from vodafone too, and there are no problems.. is somebody there who has the same provider or problem?
2. i got qip for the diamond and i can't get a connection to the icq network. "connection timeout" or something like that is the message i get. i tested a lot of icq clients, and i use not the newest version of qip because in this version i'm able to set the proxy, where i set the settings like my connection settings from the windows mobile device.. i've heard, that some vodafone users get this started with my version & my settings, so maybe its somebody here who get this started too.
i think 1 & 2 are the same problem, there must be a mistake in the connection settings.. maybe there is no solution, i searched @ the whole web for weeks & nothing is usefull.. it's strange that i can use the vodafone live portal & google and everything else on port 80..
now there is still the problem 3, its the most important for me..
3. if i go to the standby-mode (the small button on the top of the phone^^) and it's in standby for a while, the damn wlan connection is turning on!!! its really bad, because the battery is empty after a short while. is there a way to disable the automatic wlan connection? after that i always have to go to >settings>connection manger and have to disable wlan.. i installed the advanced settings (i think i got it from here) and enabled a lot of power management settings, and if wlan doesn't turn on, my battery works for 1,5 days (if i doesn't access the internet and play with the phone).. this is a really bad disadvantage @ the phone.. if wlan is turning on the battery is empty after a few hours..
by the way, has somebody a tip for me to get the phone turned on for longer? and whats the record running time? xD
thank you before & i have to say...
.. this forum is the best for windows mobile devices!!! i got a lot of software from here
it's really impressive
Hi all, i got a Kaiser, ATT model, 2 month ago i has been using the device as pocket pc only and was working perfect, now i use as phone with the carrier "CLARO" from Chile... well this its drive me to crazy... when the phone function its on, the device its very sticky, i use it fro 3 or 5 min and then freeze for 30 seconds, some times i just wake up it from sleep and freeze, some times start freezing 15 second every 2 seconds... when i say freeze i mean its dosnt respond from any imput (Screen, Hardkeys, Keyboard, Power)... i was testing kaiser radios like 1.65.xx, 1.70.xx, 1.71.xx and niki, etc. without luck... i hide sim contacts too, i set manual search for networks, i try with automatic too and disable the other country networks that i found on the sim, i switch between GSM and 3g, i even change my custom ROM...
Well i think i am not hte only one in the world with this problem, long time ago i see a guy with a ipaq 6940, WM 5.0, i see the device working and freeze a lot too with the same way, even in XDA i read post responses talking about this, i think the problem its related to the reception, some times when i am on home work very nice, but when i go to the center of my city and enter to mall, the device start freeze a lot, on my girlfriend house too (its a solid structure, my its make in wood lol)...
so, i am very tired of this, its getty a pain to use the device, any one has some similar problem? i think the windows reg can be tweaked for disable some parameters of phone and cause problem, maybe a way to tell the phone "when the signal its low, just lost it", in other post (i dont remeber the link, so please if anyone know it plz post it here) i read that there a reg key to set the priority or some like that the carrier give to the phone (in numbers)... well any info its welcome!!!!!
Regards and thanks!
no body has same or similar issue????
