Call functions not working - please help - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Please help!
I have a Cingular SX66 that all of a sudden the major phone functions just quit.
Wheb I dial out it appears to be dialing out, shows a connection and connect time, singal strength is good but I can not hear the person on the other end nor can they hear me talking. On incoming calls, the phone rings yet again the same problem a mute connection. (mute is off). Everything else functions properly
If anyone could please help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Phone is in its original configuration
ROM version: 1.20.10 WWE
ROM date: 10/08/04
Radio version: 1.02.10
Protocol version: 1337.35
ExtROM version: 1.20.115 WWE

try reflashing with a different ROM to see if it fixes it

I will try that, since the BA upgrade list does not show one specificto the Cingular SX66 is there one you would suggest?
Thanks Alan

this happened to me too just today.... i thought i got something broken inside so i disassembled my BA using the guide on wiki.. reheated all the ic's (insane) and then reassemble it... but nothin happens... nada..
one thing i noticed is when i reboot, sometime i see my version nmber on my radio... but sometimes i see is none..
R : none
G : none
B : 5.04.09 wwe
please help

Sometimes that happen with the BA and wm5 (r: none...). The solution is to soft reset it.
About the "can't hear" thing, did you install any new program and then the problem begun?

been investigating this.... it turned out to be a hardware fault.. my charger kind pulled out the thingie inside and i just cleaned it and do things with it..
i dont know jack about all the things inside (as you can see bout my post) but its working now have to test it again and again though...

Thanks Matthew,
I did try reflashing. 1st time with the official siemens rom upgrade and the 1.15 radio rom and it worked for a few calls then then quit so I reflashed with the 1.12 radio rom and it did the same thing - worked for a few calls and quit. It's like it goes into a mute function-cant hear ,cant talk. Yet every other function of the phone works and it shows good signal strength. The phone only has 92 incoming & 50 outgoing hours on it
Thanks for all the help from everyone , this is driving me crazy!!
I'll keep working on it

Having to reset Qtek daily cause I don't hear the one I call

Hi
I have the newest firmware version installed on my Qtek 9090 (BA_WWE_14000_147_11200_Ship), and I experience a problem again which I had first when I bought my Qtek but was gone after I had installed Radio version 1.08.00:
Once a day I have to reset my Qtek because I can't hear the one I am calling - usually this happens when I call my mobile phone's answer phone. The phone gets connected but I don't hear anything. After a soft reset everything is fine again.
Is this a known issue? Any solutions to it? Ok - I know I can downgrade to 1.08 again but I dont really wanna do that. And yes, I can stop calling my anser phone ....
Anyone knowing what is causing the problem?
Reagrds,
A
I had the same problem with my Qtek 9090 until I stopped use the Bluetooth feature completely. Since then, everything is fine.

For me, radio 1.12 delivered:
- worse signal reception
- higher battery consumption
- still no sound issue.
flashed twice & still having the bloody "no sound" issue. really give up. i think the next thing to change is the motherboard. sigh.........................
I had never had this issues untill I upgraded my Radio to 1.12 and then I had it 5 times in one day, went back to 1.10, no more issues
Hmm. This is a really 'odd' problem. I didn't originally have this problem with my SX66. Then, it just 'popped up' one day, and I can't seem to get rid of it.
I have tried different ROM versions (currently 1.40), and my radio version is at 1.10.
I have NEVER used radio 1.12, so I know that's not the CAUSE.
We need to compile a list of people with the problem, and see exactly what combination of ROM and Radio they have, as well as the programs they have installed.
if you read the cingular forums, there are a few folks there that say they have had it all along so I am not sure where to start...
umm....... different ppl have different problem. seems like it's a integration issue.
If you go to some HK forums, you will also find a lot of people suffering from this.
To me, I seldom use it as a phone. I only use it to receive emails and website browsing. When I go overseas and I used it as a phone with a BT handsfree (shut down GPRS connection), everything is just fine. I only encountered once with no sound problem when I take away my BT handsfree on a plane....
It's definitely a bug since a long time ago with old and new versions.....
Sad....and disappointed......
Hi all,
I upgraded my phone to the 1.12 radio along with the 1.40 CE ROM and am always resetting due to the "can't hear caller" issue and I never had this problem before.
I'm going to do a hard reset and see if that helps (clear out all the apps and use it for a day or so). If this doesn't work, I shall revert back to the 1.10 as I had no problems with that.
ROM 1.40.00
Radio 1.12.00
EXT ROM 1.13.139 (with Updated CallerID [1.20] and older version of O2 Active [3.0])
This cant hear caller issue, is it cant AT ALL hear caler or caller is so faint I cant hear him.
I ask as sometimes I get calls that are faint however when the caller rings back it fine. Not sure if its crap reseption or the device.
I got O2IIs from UK and had the same "No sound" problem. I have to SR about 5 times daily to sort it out. However, if I turn off Bluetooth (pairing with my Bluetrek G2) then everything's OK.
My ROM version is 1.31.00 WWE, Radio : 1.10.00, ExtROM: 1.31.139 WWE and BT 1.0.0 Build 3500
Had up to BT 3900 but wont help. Gonna up radio to 1.12. Will post the outcome soon.
I've only experience the problem once since the imate 1.40 upgrade.
Now, I must say that I don't use the phone THAT heavily.
I upgrade to 1.40 EX, it seems working fine, still the sound quality is not good enough...
people!
A guy called Derek has posted a possible solution to this problem here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=118364
It involves removing the Bluetooth for the startup because he believes that even with the bluetooth off, the unit is still trying to connect to a bluetooth headset.
I'm going to remove/unpair my Bluetooth Headset and see if that makes a difference. If anyone else can try this and post results I'm sure this would help loads of people.
Dom
Please confirm this and I will post it to wiki
@xdadom,
It's correct. As I mentioned in my post, when I "turned off" Bluetooth, everything's OK. The way I "turned off" Bluetooth is exactly the same with Derek did in his post, i.e. delete "Run_BTTrayCE" from Windows\StartUp\
However, I still need Bluetooth for my hand-free device. In my opinion, it's rather a trick, not a solution to kill "No sound" problem. Anyway, we can wait the updated BT version from supplier to sort it out.

SMS receiving problem

Hi, I’m one of your “old anonymous readers”, but I think that now comes my time, finally (wow) I have a problem
After upgrading my radio from 1.02 to 1.04 (I’m not sure that this could be the real reason of my issue) I’ve noticed that I cannot receive any SMS’s, I am able to send but there is no sign of the received ones…However the sender receives the note that everything vent all right, it is very embarrassing, since they can think that I am …at least impolite…
Please help, I don't really want a hard reset
By the way: my thanks goes to Pug for his “masterpieces” in upgrading

No SMS
Same here. :x
Have had that problem, got a new device, everything OK until I synchronized!
First I though that it's a problem with the provider but the provider tells me, they get an SMS received message on their system, so everything seems to be in order on their side.
Are there any settings in active sync that I could have messed up?
Greets
hunzikerco
Something new: :shock:
I noticed that in case an SMS is “received” by my PPC, a new file appears in the windows folder (MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Text SMS Protocol, about 2,7 MBs) and the only thing what the device does is that it switches on…without any notification regarding the incoming SMS…
Pls. help
hmmm...seem like im having same problem with sms..... will try to find the solution soon.....
Finally some good news…khm…I was referring only to the last part of your sentence
You know, this situation is very strange, because this is the second time when appeared in a good, working system, without having installed or de-installed any application.
Appeared just like that, a few hours ago I received SMS’s and than, like a damn, the “ability” of receiving them just vanished…
So, my fear is, that leaving the problem unsolved, although I hard-reset, reinstall everything, the problem can appear in the future suddenly as well.
An other strange think is, that I had made a complete sprite backup from the totally working system (functional SMS, MMS, connections, so on…) much before this damned situation, I try to be far-seeing :lol: , and now, AFTER a hard reset, rebuild my system from that backup, the problem is the same. NO SMS…exhausting
Anyway, now I am a little bit relaxed :wink: knowing that someone experienced is handling this problem. Hope that you’ll find the answer, I couldn’t :idea:

Hi,
Don't know whether this gets you on the right track, but my magician has the same probs when I put back a restore with sprite & this restore includes sms, e-mail etc. settings & data. When I leave out the sms & e-mail stuff everything works just fine. Though I manually have to recreate the e-mail settings ofcourse. Looks like something gets out-of-sync, maybe you have to clear some databases as well to get it all 'empty' and working again.
As the first post mentioned doing an upgrade before noticing the prob. you might have the same issue.
Regards, M
Thanx, I'll give it a try.

hi,
could you list me down what file do you have at /Windows/Startup
hi there,
here they are:
IA_CID_StartUp.lnk
Camera_Detect.lnk
Check_AutoRun.lnk
poutlook.lnk
RunBT.lnk
STK.lnk
that's all my friend...
i got file with name elatepushservice.lnk
hmm.....
and...is this good or bad ?
Some news:
I think that someone out there heard my prayers and what a miracle… the SMS receiving works now (I don’t know for how long…). BUT since that, my BT headset is unusable (I can connect it, I hear the incoming call signal, but after receiving the call or initiating a call, I hear only some noises…). To be honest I’m happy with the SMS, about the headset…till I can use the built-in speakerphone, the problem doesn’t really bother me …
The only thing I had done before this “miracle” just happened is that I uninstalled the Sprite Backup (v.2.14) and reinstalled the latest one (I think 3.14). I don’t suppose that this was the “help”, I think it’s only a strange coincidence…
But I learned something from this, Scully: “THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE…”
Hmmm,
I'm not so sure that Sprite 2.1.4 was NOT the cause of your problems. When I restore my mail, sms etc with that specific version I cannot receive any e-mail or sms. Sending remains possible .
Cheers, M
only some SMS received
I seem to have the same problem - but can not put it down to any application installed or even restoring from backup - happens on a virgin XDA 2i after hard reset -
i even upgraded to latest (o2) rom 1.11.162 WWE (no change in symptom)
Rom 1.11.00 WWE
Radio 1.00.00
Problem is getting worse - (I receive about half of my SMS) - testing showed that on trying to receive an SMS the XDA switches on and then looses the network and starts looking - when the network is aquired again there is no notification of a new SMS and it is also not received.
Any help????
@Irishfella:
Just sit back and relax, the problem will be solved by it self…Sorry I was just kidding (although I know that now, you are not in such kind of mood).
As you’ve perhaps read through my posts I had the same problem and for the moment – touch wood – has been solved. I swear I have no idea how…
If you’ll figure out something please let us know. Good luck!
Of course if I'll find out something, I'll post it here.
sadly it has not (gone away that is)
@seatone
I think I can pin point it to a weak reception (see my other post) and thought a radio upgrade might fix - but on reading back this entry I see that you are on 1.04 - so that seems to be a dead end.
(sending works fine by the way)
did you (or anybody else) do any further troubleshooting on this?
Does anyone found the solution to this problem? In the past two weeks, I have just notice that I had the same problem. The SMS messages are definitely received by the phone, my inbox say I have "Text Message 0 Items, 5 unread", but no text is shown at all. And if I create messages and then save it in drafts, it said I have 1 draft but again, nothing is shown under drafts.

For the record, that's the O2 Active UI loader.
Problem solved.
This link http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/Unread.html shows you how to remove the unread message are reset the Inbox. Works for me and I hope it does the tricks to others as well.
Great tip, no need for it today, but stored for future use.

I have PDA2k with WM 2003 SE

I would like to Upgade to WM5 please inform me if I have to backup my WM 2003 and How I have to make it. :lol:
U% can use spirite backup
Ahem....... please forgive me for resurrecting this old post but i to have a PDA2K and i`m wondering if i should upgrade to WM5
I won`t mine if i took the risk to upgrade the Rom, i previously own a sx66 and i loved the speaker phone but i cant activate the speaker phone on this one and for some crazy reason, I can`t hear the caller at the other end of the line. Once the call has been place I can accept the call but i hear nothing!
The same goes for making a call to someone, they hear their cell ring but upon anwsering they hear nothing :?
I did a hard reset also but no help there

getmad,
For reception problems... Upgrade your Radio to latest - 1.15
WM5 - try the latest from Helmi
i`m i think i may have done something stupid, i tried to flash back to 1.40 imate rom and now the poor thing is just reading USB v2.08 in the craddle
O dear
You are in bootloader mode, thats good way to continue flash.
Because there is no more big issue with WM5 such as speed you can try Helmi WM5.
Or flash to 1.42 WM2003SE

I am sure u can find there everything you need
Thanks to kerio, kumar00455
I could kiss u guys, at first i thought my phone was dead and i was like OMG wheres the Friggin System restore feature :lol:
Anyway, my phone is now lively again running WM5 and the latest Radio 1.15.
For some odd reason i still have the same problem which is not hearing the person voice on the incoming end of it. Even when i place a call i don`t hear the ringing effect which is telling me that the other user phone is ringing. Its just plain slient, and yes the in call volume is turned up.
I`ll swap some different sim cards in the phone tomorrow to see if it works
If u have any ideas i would certainly like to hear them
I have to say, XDAdevlopers really helps users with there issuse all u have to do is read the info. I am proud to say i`m running WM5 on my BA and i learn to upgrade it from here
Thanks again :wink:

Phone calls: sound cannot be heard

I repeteadly experience this problem:
sometimes in my XDAIIi, no matter if receiving or making calls, my voice/sound cannot be heard, by the other party. Nor I can hear his/her voice/sound. Phone call ringing is Ok.
This problem appears 20% 30% of times.
When the battery is below 25% this problem appears 90% of times!
I made hard reset...no improvement.
I disabled smart diallings option : no improvement
I am running:
ROM 1.11.00 WWE
Radio 1.04.00
ExtROM 1.11.162
Please help
Saulo866
one more hint: it seems that the problem (phone muted) is solved if, after a hard reset, when the message appears "in 3 secs device will restart" I do a soft reset, with the stylus
In this way I prevent the extRom to be loaded.
In fact now my XDA IIi shows as:
ROM 1.11.00 WWE
Radio 1.04.00
ExtROM < blank>
What shall I think? That the ExtROM 1.11.162 is the culprit?
If so, can someone provide me the CAB for MMS (now Multimedia SMS disappear) so I can install them separately?
What other CRITICAL cabs are now missing?
3. Since extROM is not installed, is there a way to use this storage? How?
Thanks and waiting
Saulo866
I have gotten the same problem since this afternoon, but what you tried didn't work for me
Hope to find the solution for this problem (maybe update the rom), do you have any news?
I think that those cab's you're looking for are in the hidden rom...
Xanh
the problem was solved, I did my headset in and changed the volume while pulling it out and heard sound again...

Problem with WM5 on BA - No Radio...

Hi
Tried looking through all the threads and checking what I have done but still no joy hence post.
Have upgraded my old BA PH20B (I have another one so no panic) to WM5 with the latest WM2k5_AKU3.2_32mb_v1.3.2 setting Operator to ORANG001 (Orange UK).
1st time I tried everything seemed fine except although I had a signal from Orange I couldnt ring the phone (went to answer machine) and if I tried calling out the call disconnected with 0min 0sec calltime. I did receive a text message saying I had missed a call (me calling phone to test). But couldn't make or receive calls.
So I tried again from scratch twice and both times I have no signal and in Device Info have "Radio version: NONE" - followed instructions to the letter anyone any ideas?
Cheers
RichardC
ps. I can re-flash ROM OK.
this happened to me, too. but only when i changed batteries...
try to soft reset until the word NONE is replaced by the radio rom version (during boot up).
good luck!
Thanks for that, did soft reset and suddenly I have a radio ROM, so removed battery and inserted SIM then no radio again. Soft reset and radio back...weird
Now I can make calls and receive text but can't call phone (engaged or answerphone, maybe network I guess) but also GPRS connection info wrong so guess better start searching for info on that now. lol.
Thanks for the tip.

Makes sense thanks...just the GPRS issue now. lol
Just stepped through GPRS settings not changing anything but clicked OK at the end and it works now. Looks like install didnt configure everything fully.
Weird issue I now have is dialling out cancels and yet the phone I dialled rings about 10 seconds later (very weird).
When receiving a call - nothing happens on the BA, no ringing down phone calling out from then when the network drops the call the BA makes a small burp sound. So it knows it should be ringing but something is stopping it.
Tried upgrade to 1.15 Radio ROM - same. So now going to try downgrade to original WM2003SE Radio ROM version (1.06) and see how that goes unless someone has another bright idea?
same issue here
I am now experiencing the same issue, suspect its battery related though...hope someone can come up with something better than that. :lol:

You'll need to update those links for the new forum it seems.
Tried everything but although it all worked phone usage was inconsistant. Sometimes calling out works, sometimes just drops call with duration 00:00. Sometimes receives a call, other times goes straight to voice mail or un-obtainable tone even when signal fine and 2nd BA running WM2003SE works fine (same operator, Orange UK). Bluetooth also needed re-boot most of the time to be enabled. So reverted to WM2003SE for now .
just for comparison i have an xda iis that works fine phone and all and im in wm2k5......except cam doesnt work lol gunna fix taht later .....i used radio version 12.00

Thanks for that I tried 12 and then finally went back to standard WM2003SE radio version out of desperation. Nothing worked.
When I have the energy! I may try upgrading my other (newer) BA to see if that helps but first I need to backup my current ROMS as it works faultlessly under WM2003SE...why am I thinking of upgrading I ask myself
Alhumdulillah
everything is working fine for me
AKU 3.2 owns
CAM is fine
ricardo there must be some other problem i hope u didnt drop the phone too many times
looks more like a hardware problem to me
Hi
Phone is 100% OK with WM2003SE, so not a hardware issue...may try again soon, thanks for input.
