MDA Vario III dead since it got unlocked - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I have an MDA vario III - Tynt II
I did manage to unlock my phone eventually , however since I unlocked it I can't make or receive any calls. Anything that has to do with sound on my phone doesn't work, i.e. it doesn't ring if someone calls me , it only vibrates. I can't accept a call, the green button doesn't work when someone is calling me. also, when i make a call and I get through I can't hear the person on the other line and neither can he hear me.
Any suggestions?? I did try to soft and hard reset it but it doesnt rectify the problem. I've also tried to launch the bootloader.
I am worried that I might have made my warranty void now cos of this.
Is that true?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you !

Hi Andrew,
When you say you unlocked your phone, what exactly did you do? A SIM unlock I presume so you can use any networks SIM? If so how did you do it? (e.g. software, online, code through eBay?)
What ROM are you running? You can find this in Start>Settings>SystemDevice Information
Copy all the info from that screen including the Radio Version.
Cheers

which sim unlocker did you use, and did you reflash your original radio rom after unlocking?

Thank you everyone. problem solved. i had to reflash my rom and the sound got restored.

My phone doesnt allow me to call after I used okiwiz
I used the okiwiz to unlock my phone but now i cant mak any calls
can any one help?

MDA Vario, not connecting to GSM network after ROM update

Hi,
I've recently updated my MDA Vario to the new dtuch QTek rom (2.18 I believe). Everything went smoothly and my phone now has a much higher standby time. However, in the settings menu for my GSM network it says 'no service' where it should say 'T-Mobile. I tried softreset, switching flightmode on/off, using 'automatic' and 'manual' to select a network, removing SIM card, but nothing works? Right now, I can't receive any calls even tho people hear it like I'm just not anwsering my phone and the 'call' hardware button or the 'phone' button in the windows menu don't even open up the call screen where I can enter a number.
I only CID unlocked my device before I updated to the new rom so I am not sure if I needed to SIM unlock as well but I don't think so.
Can anyone help me out with this problem? Thanks in advance
anyone? I am beginning to think this is a serious problem... maybe my telephone is defect? :S Or do you think this is just a software problem?
try flashing it back to the old ROM
Can I just overwrite the 2.18 ROM with the older T-Mobile rom again? And if anyone else knows a better solution that does not require another rom 'update' please let me know!
Also, I've found out that a hard reset didn't work, in fact, I couldn't hardreset because when I needed to enter the Call key to confirm the reset, the key just didn't work... :?
Okay, after downgrading again to the T-Mobile 1.6 rom the phone seems to get a signal again? How can it be that the new QTek rom doesn't get a signal but the old T-Mobile rom does? I DID CID unlock the device, and altho I am unsure if it worked, I assume it did, since the QTek install went flawlessly. I did NOT do a sim unlock, but I figured that wasn't needed since I would stick to T-Mobile anyway?
Sorry man, I've no idea. The main thing is that you now know that there is nothing wrong with your hardware.
If the radios are different versions I guess you could try keeping the old radio and updating everything else.
Good luck.

T Mobile Vario III Cannot Head Anything In Call

Hi Guys
Just got my new Tmobile Vario III. The problem is I cannot hear any conversation while making or receivng calls. Phone displays that I have connected, Dialling Etc. I do not know id that is due to sim unlock or manufacturer's fault. I have tried tmobile, o2 sims but no joy. The sim works fine on my original phone.
Do you think it is manufacturer's fault or just upgrading to wm6.1 will solve the issue?
regads
hello,
have you hardreset your device?
greetings
I have done hard reset twice but still no joy
regards

Always post full details of the phone and what exactly you have performed,just mentioning unlocked doesn't explain anything,what have you unlocked,SIM or CID unlocked,both are entirely different procedures,ok
yorkshireman44
Same goes for you too,if you have simply SIM unlocked using lokiwiz03a tool,then nothing has actually changed in your phone,it'll perform as it was before SIM unlocking.

Unable too make phonecalls

I found a HTC S730 and I have updated the ROM to WM 6.1 (Alc) But I cannot make any phonecalls or recieve any and I cannot recieve or send text messages. I have taken the phone to a local phone shop and he said the phone has been blocked, this is a very nice phone and I would like to use it too make calls, is there any way I can make the phone features work again?
Thanks in advance
Sammy
I suppose you are able to switch it on and get into home screen right? So, are you able to navigate through menus etc...? If you put a SIM card what happens? Is the phone able to find and log onto the network? Give more technical details. Not just conclusions of your tryings.
or as your last chance you could hard reset your phone, or flash another rom...
I think his radio is dead. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get into writing SMS and then trying to send those, and failing... If the phone was locked, it wouldn't allow him to get into GUI or Home Screen. Or it would say that the SIM card is not accepted (locked to a specific network).
if it is Operator locked he need a SIM UNLOCK, but don't know if it is work for the wings...
Okay sorry about the lack of technical information. When I found the phone it had a password so I performed a hard reset by holding the two soft keys and pressing the power button, I then flashed the ROM to Alc's WM 6.1 . I inserted a T-Mobile sim card and on the phones home screen it says 3G T-Mobile and there is clearly signal but the phone will not make any calls or send text messages, is there anything I can do?
So what happens exactly when you press the Call button? Does it give any error message? Or it just doesn't do anything?
It looks like its about to ring then it just makes a beeping sound and says 'call ended' ive tried all sorts of different sims all with the same outcome.
When you brought it to the phone shop they told you the phone had been blocked, that possibly means the IMEI number of the phone is blocked so no sim would work in it.
Have a read of this
Code:

I never experienced IMEI blocked phones. However, if you can't make it work, there is one possibility. You can send it to me and I can try it here.

try to hard reset your device after that reFlash with official rom
you can find Rom official in http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Diamond
Thanks a lot Hakim for your reply.
But how I can do that ?
In my previous post I said that I can't turn on my Diamond.
So, how I can flash if I can't connect it to my computer ?

you've tried to hardreset your device..??
yeah, htc doesn't react to hard reset,soft and bootloader
almost same story
I have a very similar problem .
The only difference is that my phone is a mda vario IV (t-mobile)
and my download was a different one .
If I turn it on it shows the t-mobile screen and turns off immediately .
Hard reset doens't work since it doesn't react to the soft reset button .
It would be really really awesome if anyone had an idea to solve this/these problem/s

You might have bricked your phone......Try getting into bootloader mode, if ya can do that much you might be able to load one of the custom ROMS or at least the right one
Yes , bricking seems to be the only explanation for this behaviour.
Why on earth did you try to unlock your phone yourself?!
If i have a problem , i go to a service center nearby and pay a fee of almost 10E to unlock my phone.They know what to do , even gine me waranty.
You are not the only brave person i see trying to unlock a headset by himself.A friend holds the record for bricking headsets. In 2 months he bricked not less then 12 headsets because he was to stubborn to take them to a service center.
Some things are best not to be dealt with. I personally am afraid to flash a W6.5 ROM on my headset , because i might end up bricking it.
I remember there used to be many threads related/similar to your problem.
Have you guys tried to search for that issue?
Just an example:

Good luck!
