Kaiser/ Tytn II official AUS & SEA HTC WM6.1 - Serious bug while roaming

I think I found a bug in this new rom 6.1 -tested on Australian & SEA (South East Asia) version.
I am using push email and set to turn off the sync when I am in roaming since I am using Australia Hutch 3 network.
However the sync keeps get connected while I am roaming.
Normally this was not happening while I was still using the old WM 6.0 rom, while roaming automatically the sync stopped and resume when it went back to 3 broadband area. This is really annoying because 3 network is charging high roaming price.
In addition there is no 'triangle' icon anymore while I am in roaming.
There is 'roaming' text written on the screen but I think it is more like a label rather than the phone think that is now a roaming network.
May be this is why 'activesync' thinks that the phone is not roaming and keeps get connected.
Back in WM 6.0 the 'triangle' icon was there.
I also use the HTC weather and choose NOT to do download while roaming under option setting BUT the update still went through when I was roaming.
I thought only happen to activesync as I previously mentioned however this roaming issue happen accross all program now.
Definitely this new ROM doesn't understand when the phone is on roaming network. All data still went through. It is a bug that has to be fixed otherwise people will get unexpected high roaming charges.
Anyone got a workaround for this issue please let me know. I really appreciate it. I also would like to know if you have updated your phone to WM6.1 and also experiencing the same issue while roaming. I have tested WM6.1 Australian Hutch 3 version & also tested with South East Asia version. Both are having the same issue. I wonder if this happens accross all WM6.1
FYI, Hutch 3 Australia is using roaming for their GSM network and charges more for data download. Their 3G/ HSDPA only covers inner city/ CBD area and if you commute between GSM & 3G coverage your phone will switch between 'home' and 'roaming' all the time.

HTC ROM 6.1 backgrade to HTC 6.0?
How can I go back to the original ROM once updated to 6.1 version? This version is a complete ****!
Thank you

NEED HELP - Changing band loses the network (KPN)

I have a HTC Tytn II with KPN network(flexibel) and internet, the problem I have is that I can't change the band rate from GSM in AUTO, when i change it I have no network anymore, so the network is G and not 3G.
Please help me to solve this problem.

Radio 1.65.16.25
Protocol 25.83.40.02. H

Hi I changed you title to something other that "NEED HELP".
You might get some more help now, hope you don't mind.

This sounds like a problem I had a while ago. It was an antenna issue. I had to send my TyTN2 for repair in order to fix it.
The symptoms: I could use only GSM in GSM mode. In auto or UMTS mode it kept on searching, connecting, disconnecting. Repeating over and over again. First the Y! -symbol, then the three dots building up (Y...) connecting, displaying 3G-symbol for about two seconds and then everything drops dead and the whole network searching starts again. It was only stable in GSM mode, could not even make phone calls in auto mode.
After calling support they collected my device for repair. Took about a week and a half and it is now fully operational again with 3G/HSDPA on KPN network in NL.

Unable to roam on Three (3g) Australia - Help Please

I have a HTC Touch Diamond P3700 which I think was sourced from Hong Kong. I use it on the Hutchinson 3 network in Australia and am unable to get Roaming (on Telstra network) going. I am currently on hoidays in Noosa and there is no Three coverage here and the phone will not switch to Roaming. I had installed the Hutchinson 3 official Rom (I was able to get this on the phone by first flashing Olinex Hard SPL).
Current Installed Firmware...
ROM Version = 1.93.861.4 WWE
ROM Date = 11/21/08
Radio Version = 1.09.25.23
Protocol Version = 52.51.25.26W
Model = HTC Touch Diamond P3700
The above ROM is Hutchinson 3 Aus with a different Radio version. I have also tried to Roam with the stock Hutchinson ROM.
With the above setup, the only Network Type I can select are WCDMA or Auto. GSM/UMTS band options are UMTS (900+2100) + GSM (900+1800) and Auto. I have installed advanced Comm Manager which enables me to turn off 3G in the hope that the phone would Roam on Telstra GSM. When I do this the Network Type selection is blank.
I have also flashed Duttys 5.2.20764.1.4.3_V4_Full_MSVC [2.03] and was able to view a full range of UMTS and GSM bands and had WCDMA, Auto and GSM as an option in Network Type.
I have also tried the following Radios:
1.00.25.05
1.13.25.24
1.11.25.1
1.09.25.23
1.00.25.06
1.12.25.16 (couldn't get this one to work)
I am not scared to try flashing different items, but am really lost as to why I can't get Roaming (on Telstra network). I suspect the version of my Diamond does not have the necessary hardware to use the required Band.
Can anyone give me a tip as I am now lost and Hutchinson won't help me as I didn't buy the phone through them. Even being a customer (2 phones) for 3 years + doesn't not count (might be time for a new provider).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Paul

I am with Three also, they really suck, dont they?
Have you tried changing the radio to 1.08.25.20? thats the best I have found for use with 3. This should enable the GSM option under network connections. Actually I specifically remember that the GSM option (or antoher) was different for me on your type of radio...
let me know how you go.

I am with Three using an imported Diamond, radion 1.09.25.23 but the official one for Three Australia also worked fine to me. I roam onto Telstra a lot cos not in a good coverage area.
Have roamed across europe and no problems. Is it the data connection or the voice that you need? If the data connection is the problem then maybe download a new connection setup cab and try to update that. Sorry, not much use I know!

Still no luck

Voice is the thing I am after. Still no luck. I have gone back to Duttys 5.2.20764.1.4.3_V4_Full_MSVC ROM and Radio 1.08.25.20 which enables GSM to be selected. Under SETTING|PHONE|NETWORK I have pressed the 'Find Network' button but the phone cannot find any networks yet my wife's iPhone is able to pick up Roaming (Telstra), Yes Optus and Vodafone AU. I find it strange that my Touch Diamond can't locate any networks. I'll keep hunting the fault but it is very frustrating. Thanks for the help. Cheers, Paul

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Paul,
Try going to Setting>Phone>Band tab and select 'GSM', then 'Auto' or the apprpriate band for roaming.

Thanks dieselpower89
I have tried all that. Also changed the ROM 5 or 6 times. Radios that and a few more. It is as if the phone will only recognize the Three network and nothing else. It will not pick up any other networks. Very strange.

why u dont give a try to upgrade to the official one(2.03.707.2)?
maybe it wil help u

Albert_betet
2.03.707.2 is not available for Australian networks. I tried to download from htc.com but it rejected my serial number as not compatiable. I have tried the latest Hutchinson ROM which is still current on the htc.com website (Australian) and whilst it works on my phone, the roaming doesn't activate.

might be a sim card prob. im on 3 with a diamond from overseas as well. before i kept losing receptino and it would reconnect when i powered up the screen. and also it would say no reception but i could go on 3 internet and stuff. Just go to the 3 store and they will give u a brand new sim card for free then callup customer care and tel them to transfer your service onto your new sim card. only took like 3 minutes in total.. and the call centre is 24hrs

Thanks JexL,
You're a champ!! My wife's sim card has been roaming in her iPhone so I put her card in my phone and didn't find a network at first. I went to SETTINGS |PHONE and then Network tab and there was another option for either Auto or Manual select a network. I selected manual which then found the 3 available networks here in Noosa. I chose Telstra and then Roaming became available. I turned off the phone and swapped back my card. Turned phone on and Roaming was found immediately. Funnily enough I don't have the auto/manual network selection option. But the phone works so that is the main thing.
Thanks again to all that helped.

Lost EDGE on flashing 6.0 to 6.1 ??

As title, TyTN 2, bought unlocked, about 18 months ago
A few weeks ago I flashed with HTC downloaded ROM - 6.1 version, official from their site..
Currently (now) on phone:
ROM 3.28.405
Radio 1.65.17.56
G 25.83.40.04H
Build 19212.1.0.3
I am in the UK and can put any SIM into the phone.
Orange and O2 have EDGE where I live and I used to get EDGE dataspeeds.
Now I don't see the E icon (but 3G and H work fine when I move into those areas).
IS it possible the new Rom will have stopped EDGE for me, or is it more likely the network has stopped EDGE for capacity, coverage or maintainance?
I am in a rural area in East Anglia and I know EDGE is a software upgrade to the base stations. And it used to work and I got up to 200k download, but now only 40k on GPRS (or faster on 3G or HSPDA).
Appreciate any pointers. CAN I force EDGE on the phone?
Cheers all.

[Q] Only EDGE - Help please

Hi,
I am having the following situation with my mobile data.
Bought an HTC One in Germany, everything works well, took it to Peru (Claro Network) where I currently live, also everything worked fine.
Rooted the device and installed Android Revolution 12.1. - everything worked good.
Installed Google Edition Rom - not sure if EDGE or 3G / 4G worked. Installed again Android Revolution (this time 12.2) and since then I only get EDGE coverage (yes, i am in an area with 3G and 4G coverage - my kids phones work without issue). I believe that the Android Revolution does not touch the radio so I guess the Google Edition is/was the initiatior of the problem.
Thought that it might be the Radio, and flashed the up to date T-Mobile Germany radios (as they worked in the beginning), but no change.
What to do? Is there some other component which might effect the EDGE / 3G & 4G reception? Anyone has a Claro Peru radio to make a final check?
Attaching screenshoot of Firmware etc.
Thanks alot,
TK

Go to settings -> Mobile Data
There is a "Network Mode" section make sure it is on GSM WCDMA LTE auto
If that doesnt work, make sure you are on the correct "access point" I, for whatever reason, have the GSM access point and a "WAP" one for my company. One time it auto-selected WAP and I was having issues with internet.

Hi,
yes all activated. Just did some more research ... and maybe someone can help.
I am having a M7_UL version but it was bought in Europe, and does not support the 850 3G band which I need overhere in Peru. I am stuck on the 1.54 Bootloader. How can I get this to work. A Canadian Radio e.g. would do as it support the 850 Band.
Thanks alot for a hint,
T
