hi all
seem to have a problem with my vario 3... i cant recieve incoming calls unless ive made an outgoing call... and i always have to make an outgoing call twice to get it to connect...
been having this prob since thursday, so was trying various radios and even some new roms... but i cant resolve this issue
any suggestions...
for now I am on DCSv1.7 and the reccomended UK radio... the prob started on the Vista rom which was flawless until this happened... and i have tried every 6.1 radio out there...
cant help but think the vario has developed a fault
cheers
no-one got any suggestions?
i've just reloaded the stock tmobile rom and same problem. when i first try to call out, the call drops, but the 2nd time it works...
when i try to call my phone i get a "phone not available" message, then if i try again it works...
i shudder to think of the missed calls i'm getting and not knowing about...
Whats your radio, what version of WM do you have and its probably your area.
at the moment, and i've tried nearly all 6.0 and 6.1 roms, but Sleuth1.2 and 1.27.12.32, but again have tried many (obviously 6.0 with 6.0 etc )
its not my area, as never had this happen before in this area... i have full signal...
spoke to tmob, they said its a known fault and to set the band to GSM, which, it appears has fixed this issue... but i no longer seem to get 3G or HSPDA etc
what i dont get is why has this happend after 6 months of flawless stock rom usage, and 3 months of cooked rom usage? tis all a bit random...
but i guess its fixed for now, just means ive lost high speed data

When making phone calls, the Kaiser sometimes drops the call. This is what happens:
I stop hearing the person at the other end of the line BUT the call isn't dropped yet. For about 6-8 seconds the time counter continues. After that the phone 'finally' drops the call and I hear the 'dropped call' sound.
I can't find any pattern. Sometimes he drops the call after a minute, sometimes after 18 minutes. Here's some extra information (might not be relevant):
My provider uses the 1800Mhz band, while most people I calll use the 900Mhz band.
When checking my voicemail the calls never drop. I haven't checked yet if calling to people that use the same provider cause the phone to drop calls
I don't use bluetooth, but have the fix installed anyway
My provider only supports EDGE but I don't use that
Dropped calls have nothing to do with reception or battery. When having full reception the calls still drop
I already tried manually selecting the network, network type and band, but nothing helps.
I'm using the original ROM with my Kaiser:
ROM: 1.56.405.5
Radio: 1.27.12.32
Protocol: 22.45.88.07W
Any ideas? thx
Possible fix
In an effort to solve the problems myself, I updated the radio (didn't want to do it at first because of possible warranty issues).
I used Radio 1.27.12.17 for a few days, but my Kaiser kept dropping calls.
Now I'm using Radio 1.27.15.32 and up until now I haven't had a single dropped call.
So all I can recommend is upgrading to this Radio ROM (1.27.15.32) when having the same problems.

Broke again...
I have been using Radio ROM 1.27.15.32 for some 20 days now, without any issues.
But since Thursdaynight (14/02) all of a sudden my Kaiser started dropping calls again.
I have no idea why. I will be trying other ROMs again.
Any ideas? thx
i guess this is a hardware issue since i tried 3 different radios including a 6.1 wm radio and the issue still remains
i tried
1.27.12.17
1.27.15.32
1.64.08.21
Have you guys tried completely disabling data? (just for testing)
Ever since I have my Kaiser, data connections have been disabled using Kaisertweak (Great tool btw, thx).
But I just don't get it; why is this issue all of a sudden reappearing? I haven't changed any software or settings.
And if it where a hardware issue, then why resurface after a few weeks?
So many questions...
Thx anyway
Have u ever solved this issue? I am exchanging my S620 Dash for a Kaiser with similar problem in 5hrs time and I would like to know if I can solve the problem on the Kaiser.
Hey Every1,
While surfing the web lets say on a HSDPA connection if someone tries to call me they are automatically sent to my voicemail. I then get a text some time later saying I missed their call. The only way to solve this is to not use the internet and then disconnect the data session by clicking the h in the top bar.
Ive been searching through the forum and on the web in general and have seen this problem mentioned in regards to vodaphone but not t-mobile. In fact with t-mobile I have read that it should/does cancel the data session automatically to allow for the call or drop down to 3g so that call can be taken.
1) has anyone else experienced this problem?
2) if so is there a soloution? The only one I can think of is to disable hsdpa in the registry or set connections to cancel data connections after a small period of inactivity.
This is kind of frustrating when ure trying to find a friend and using google maps and he/she cant call get hold of u cos it keeps going to voicemail!!
Any help/other users on t-mopbie uk commenting on whether they suffer from this problem would be appreciated.
Im running standard tmobile radio (1.27.12.32)
Thanks
I'm using the 1.27.12.17 radio, and can make and receive calls when on an HSDPA connection. I'm on T-Mobile, too. Possibly change the radio and see if that makes a difference?
I get the same problem when using data on the HSDPA connection. When using 3G, the call will go through.
According to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321596 it is likely to be a network problem. Is it worth asking T-Mobile about this? Are people on other networks having this issue too?

Is that radio a standard t-mobile one or did u flash that ureself? Thanks
Did a bit of diagnosis and further reading on other info from other sites.
It appears I am not alone, and unfortunatly the information is varied some saying its networ and other the phone.
Its not just HSDPA but 3G to, if ure doing some data donwnloading it wont allow u take a call. The only way to have data and the ability to recieve calls at the same time is using standard gprs, which kind of defeats the purpose of having this phone in the first place. Here are some things i tried.
1) HSDPA ON - tried looking at some pages and whilst i was downloadin called from my other mobile to my kaiser, no luck took a while then went to voicemail. Once it finished downloading and it was inactive (but ie still up) it dropped down to 3g and accepted incoming calls. Also i tried to make a call while surfing and it worked fine. When i then rang from a 3rd phone whilst on the call i made it recieved it in hsdpa mode no probs (call waiting).
2) HSDPA OFF - Same as above to be honest not even worth dropping down as u cant even tell if it will accept calls as it just says on 3g rather than dropping down.
3) UMTS OFF - Works fine recieves data and make and recieves calls.
This is really annloying as it defeats the purpose of having this phone. Im quite happy to not surf and talk at the same time but i dont want to miss important calls. Id really like to know if any1 else is experiencing this problem and what they did about it, whether it is indeed network specific or a problem with me/all kaisers.
This also means u really cant have skype and or msn signed in all the time as it wont auto disconnect when a call comes in.
Thanks

oh one last thing, when u flashed the radio rom did put a different software rom on it e.g. from t-mobile to htc original? As u had a radio file did u bother to sim unlock...how did it go...
Sounds like i might just flash the radio rom to see if it cures the problem and might aswell sim unlock it at the same time. Just curious to know ure experiences
Two links one 2 the radio u said and one to radio dump tools

Someone on T-Mobile please comment.....
Hi,
I'm on T-mobile UK, I'm on the standard WnW so dont have the HSDPA, but I did have the same problem on 3G, couldnt take calls while surfing.
It was bugging me as hell. After some research (out here and on some other forums) I tried the bandswitch app to change the band to GSM (it was on 'auto') and it worked. After a couple of days, I uninstalled bandswitch and reverted to 'auto' again and everything worked fine. I havent had problems and its been over a month now.
Regarding sim unlocking and CID unlocking, I've done that recently. I was on radio version - 1.27.12.11 and am now on 1.27.12.32
just waiting for a good stable 6.1 rom and will flash then.
hope this helps.
cheers
Thanks Koowdewil im gonna give that a try
Do u know where i can find the bandswitch app that you used???

I emailed T-Mobile about this and here is there response:
Dear .....
I am afraid this is normal for this device. When you are browsing the web and the page has already loaded then the call will come through as normal. However if the device is still in the process of downloading the site then the call will go to voicemail. I am afraid there is no way round this issue as this is the way it has been designed by the manufacturers. Please contact us if you have any further queries. Thanks.
Regards
Stephen
T-Mobile
Yes, you could try there or just google it, danielherrero is the developer. I've heard about t-mobiles response but after switching the mode to 'gsm' for some time and then reverting back to 'auto' I havent had the problem.
Thanks so much gonna give this a try
I'm on T-Mobile UK and have flashed Duttys new 6.1 ROM and am experiencing this same issue. any ideas which is the best 6.1 compatible Radio for T-Mobile Uk?
Funnily enough I have started badgering T-mo UK about the 6.1 update already and they have started using there normal excuse of doing heavy beta testing compared to other CPs.
Typically ignoring them I am awaiting a response from my contact on the inside about the 6.1 update release....
With regards to the Call/HSDPA/3G issue I cannot say I have experienced this however 90% of the time mine is fixed to GSM lol
I've got a 3 PAYG sim and TM contract. Just tried this with 3 and call came in when streaming with realplayer and loading internet page no problem.
Same with test with TM too.
Using Duttys 6.1 with 1.64.08.21 radio.
Im on T-mobile UK with webnwalk and having no problems with this, I used a tweak to enable hsdpa/3g on continues so its always ON...
I can still recieve calls while using the inet at the same time.
Hi everybody, I am using GPRS and facing the same issue; No incoming call while GPRS is on... so any idea ?
regards
Ive been having this weird problem for a long time now. After using the phone for a day or 2, the PHONE part of hima suddenly n quietly stops working, and i cant recieve or make calls or sms. the frustrating thing is it happens every 1 or 2 days n everything else works n i only get to know about it when some1 else tells me they were trying to call and couldnt get through or when i try making a call or sms. Its been like this with many roms, and is only corrected by softresetting. ive tried setting network selection to manual(to only my network) and a couple of other fone settings but nothing makes a difference. is it a hardware problem or radio rom? im using 1.17 radio.
try using different Radio Roms..or maybe its a hardware problem
Hello all,
I installed the official 2.03.404.2 NLD ROM on my HTC Touch Diamond.
(Radio version is 1.09.25.23). I didn't use the backup utility to restore my settings afterward, instead I installed my few applications by hand again.
I configured the phone to only use GSM, both to conserve power and costs (I have wifi both at home and in the office).
However, with this new ROM, often the phone becomes unresponsive to incoming calls. It happens often after the power management puts the phone to sleep whilst I have an active wi-fi connection using Opera.
People who try to call me then get my mailbox, even though the phone is ON and everything looks normal on the display. Crazy enough, the Diamond itself can make phone calls without problems, and then I'm immediately flooded with text messages from my provider telling me there are messages on my mailbox.
I now make dummy phone calls several times daily just to be sure the phone remains logged into the network, but this really sucks. Does anyone else experience this?
what network are you using?
T-mobile NL over GSM.
But the problem coincides with the installation of the new ROM.
I have exactly the same ROM / same Radio / same provider (T-Mobile NLD) as you have, and I don't have this problem (at least, not that I know off). I also have the phone in GSM mode almost always instead of 3G mode. So I think it's not a bug in the rom. However, there is already a newer rom available than the one we have, so maybe you could try upgrading to the latest?
I have ROM version: 1.93.720.2 WWE (Radio version: 1.00.25.07) on my HTC Diamond. I have never modified or upgraded my ROM. I face a similar kinda problem as yours. The only difference is that it happens once in a day and that too early morning. So I have to make a call to any no. to wake my phone up. This sounds funny but yeah I m facing this problem. Is it bcos of ROM version? Whats the latest ROM version for HTC Diamond? How can I update it? If I update ROM will I lose all my data. Please hlp I m new to this.
I m from India and using AIRTEL network over GSM.
@Suchit_g:
Early in the morning, you mean shortly
after pulling out the charger cable?
Sounds like a power management prob.
@Drazix: Thanks for the info about
the new ROM, I will try it out.
Hmm bobokonijn
Even I thought so but this happens even if my phone is not charging. I charge my phone once in two days but this happens almost every morning. The 1st call of the day should be made by me. If I fail to call, my callers get the unavailability message even if my phone is on and showing network signal bars. My phone starts working only and only if I use network (either call someone or use GPRS) for the 1st time in the morning and then for the rest of the day my phone works without any problems. Hope someone can help me out with this?
hi,
I am facing a problem with my kaiser.
I've been having it for 1 year now, changed lots of roms and was working perfectly.
Suddenly now i am facing problems with the phone.
I am having a full signal but when they call me most of the times it doesn't ring and after 4-5 minutes i receive a message from my provider that i have missed calls.
Also when i call someone the phone hangs up after 1-2 minutes of conversation.
There are times that is loosing signal, can't find network etc..
I am facing lot's of strange problems, i tried changing all kind of Radios and ROMs but nothing fixed this problem
Anybody has an idea?
Well, I know this isn't too helpful, but can you try your sim in another phone to see what happens?
Oh and can you share more about where you are and whats on your phone?
hi and thanks for your reply
i am from Cyprus using the CYTA-VODAFONE provider.
i have the PDAcorner Ultimate v2 ROM installed but as i have stated above, i have tried also other ROMS including the original rom that was originally installed on the phone.
What radio do you have installed?
i tried from 1.65 many version to 1.71..
finaly the local htc service center told me that the problem is with the power module chip, and that is not replaceable.
anybody knows if this is right?
