No 3G/HSDPA anymore... - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hello
Today my diamond just shows the "G"-symbol and nothing I do can get the 3G symbol back. I tried my simcard in a N95 and there it works fine.
I updated the radio rom to 1.00.25.05 but nothing.
Anything I can check myself or is it going to the shop?
I have Tele2 Sweden and as i said the card works fine in a Nokia N95.

Bluetooth problems
Probably related to you 3G problem, I had problems with Bluetooth which stopped working. After a hardware reset it worked again, so it definitely was a software problem.
See my blogpost here.

My HTC Touch Diamond Experience on
http://diamondstouch.blogspot.com/

I had a similar problem, after flashing some of the roms. Apparently not all ROMs have the conenction setup as a part of the initial customization.
So i had to run the Connection Setup (Start/Settings/Connections tab) in order for the Diamond to configure my network settings correctly after which i started to get 3G back again. Can't say for sure if that was a reason, let me know if it works.

Hello
I tried them all. After a hardreset I still get Gprs only and trying a Telia card only showed Edge.
I Think its the radio unit thats f.u.
Thanks for the replies!

EDGE connection major issue

Does anyone have this problem ?
Connect IE via yr mobile EDGE service..for my case is Digi in Malaysia. The first few mins or pages..it works fine..Right after that IE cannot reach any pages and time out.. All the while the "E" for data services is still connected. Brought it back to HTC service centre...they tested 1 week , change 2 mother boards and swap one new unit...still the same issue..Its not sim issue as my connection does not break in other phones. Issue prevails in Google Maps, MSN Messenger and Shape Service IM+. If anyone knows a fix...pls help as I dunno what to do with an expensive phone that cannot sustain connection over EDGE or GPRS
Thanks
Have you flashed your rom to a different one other than stock? what about the radio, which version are you using, is it stock?
I would lean towards a radio issue or the edge service sucks.
i do know that on my older 8125 (wizard) that after about 3 days of being in constant connection i would get the same problem, but all i would have to do is disconnect form it and reconnect and it would be fine again for a long wile.
Hi pdpt,
Yes I have flashed to many ROM's and Radio including, Stock, Dutty's, Sleuth, Vega, No thrills, SNE, Alex while RADIO ROMS for WM6 and 6.1 including Nikki's , Polaris etc etc. Unfortunately all results the same. Have also tried manual connection setup, Kaiser Tweak (Edge always on) disabling the 3G portion, diabling HSDPA but those only saves batt drainag.
My previous Dopod 838Pro and the HTC Touch doesnt have this issue. Its only confined to Tytn II.
You state you've flashed to many ROM's. Have you flashed back to a stock ROM from ATT or HTC? Can make all the difference.
yes of course i did flashed back to original. the new unit i got back was also stock

well i dont know much about the edge service in Malaysia but before i say its borked try getting a new sim card. if that doesnt work im going to say that there might be something wrong with the unit itself esp if the sim card works in another phone and you can surf the internet with no problem.

Himalaya can't connect to network

Hi there!
Actually, I have some problems with my Himalaya (MDA II). The phone part only connects to my telephone provider (mobilcom O2), if it wants! Sometimes there are 2 bars connection strange, on the same position just half a minute later no connect.
I've tried an equal smartphone (XDA II) from a friend of mine and everything works fine! I even tried to change the antenna, but no success.
Is there someone, who has an idea?

Perhaps go into the phone settings and see if the phone network is set to manual or automatic
Hmm... thanks for the tipp, but I've already tried this option.
Then I would suggest going to the System tab under Settings and seeing which radio version you have, and comparing it to the radio version on your friends phone.

HTC Diamond WiFi issue, help needed

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can resolve/give suggestion for my problem.
Basically i have experience problems connecting via Wi-Fi i.e the after activating wi-fi the phone will scan for available networks and give you the list. I then try to connect to my router (bt home hub which is actually speed touch) it does connect and stays connected for some time then suddenly the connection is dropped and under wifi it says that my access point is unavailable. If i turn wifi off/on again and scan for networks it comes up with "No visible Networks detected" even though there are like 5 access points in my house and i can connect to any of them using my laptop and old nokia e60. If i wait a while it will connect again but will not keep the connection. I have tried at home, work and some public places-every time is the same story.
Things i tried:
Soft reset/hard reset (many times)
Tried disabling phone radio in case3g chip interrupts
I tried with secure networks, open networks, different types of authentication/encryption, different router (more than 10) and every its the same story. I also tried several ROMS and ALL RADIO's available with the same result.
I am currently on Duttys_Diamv2.3 WWE RADIO 1.00.25.08, its a clean flash, nothing else is installed. I also have SPL-1.40Olinex installed (not sure if that could have an impact) The phone is vodafone branded btw (i had the same issue with vodafone rom which is why i decided to try other roms). I wonder if anyone has any thoughts/suggestions and would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
The same situation happened to my Diamond. I took it to the local dealer for HTC and after several days, I am told that the main board will need replacement. I am still waiting for it to be repaired as the parts had to be braught in from another country. I was also saud if the phone was less than a month old (which it is not) they would have replaced it with a new phone.
Good luck repairing yours and keep us updated.

Thanks Omar, I was kinda thinking that it may be hardware issue, but I don't anymore, I am trying something else actually as we speak. The only thing I haven't tried before is another hard SPL and I think that's the problem, I installed another version hspl1.34 and it seems more stable now and wifi keep connection, also with another hspl version (it was hspl 1.24) RAM under devise info>hardware showed 128, now it is 192. I will test in intensively and post my results here in case nay one else have the same issue. Hopefully I will not have to send it away for repair. Thanks for your info anyways.
In risk of sounding lame ...
Have ya tried 'Start' / 'Settings' / 'System' 'Wireless LAN'
Under Wireless LAN click 3'rd tab (strømtilstand in Danish - could be power-settings)
On that tab - pull the marker way to the left in order not to minimize the power consumption when tryng to hookup with the WiFi.
I had massive problems to get my local WiFi working at home - until I did this trick.
Best luck, Kindly

Yes i have thats the first thin you do anyways . I am now more than sure that the issue was with HSPL version 1.34, as soon as i got rid of it (installed hspl 1.24) all is fine.
With my phone, i tired all Hard SPL versions and even went back to stock SPL & Rom 1.37 & 1.93 and it still didn't fix the WIFI issue. it will work for 5-15 minutes then it will not work.
Anyway, I got a replacement phone as apparently they couldn't fix it.

...I have the same problems with you
However, I think the problem may caused by different ROM versions.
My hTC version Diamond initially flashed a Chinese version ROM, and the WiFi connects well, while I changed to Dutty's most updated ROM, this problem comes and I cannot figure out why untill now.
Some friends also suggested to go to the Power Management and change WiFi to "Best Performance", I tried and failed again.
WiFi can open and connect to Routers located in library of my university, nevertheless it cannot open any pages.
I'm also waiting for any person that can solve the problem and then help us figure out why....
thanks in advance!
I got the same problem as most of the people have. and i think "Fail to turn on wifi" is a very common among guyz who got HTC TD.
I dont know what should be done, i almost tried every thing. actually my phone was locked to 3 mobile Sweden and i unlocked it but my wifi was'nt working before unlocking too but i did'nt gave attention to it. Now i noticed it.. is that any one know how to lock it again soo that i can send my mobile for repairs or, any one know what should i do.
I would recommend upgrading your radio and your rom.
Ive been rocking the setup in my sig for some weeks now and its been flawless, stable and fast.
which rom and radio you are using. can you please help me in this matter.
and i think its not a hardware problem because its showing that hardware is connected to my device as its shown in the screen shoot
Hi,
Im using AlphaZero V7 NLD,
Im have 1 wifi point in my house, downstairs.
even when im on the attic i have 80% signal strengt.
My router is a draytek 2820G router.
Wifi for me is very good. .. correctly, AZTOR V7 NLD is very good for me.
im on t-mobile network.
Radio Radio v1.00.25.05 , Radio v1.00.25.08, Radio v1.00.25.16, where all good,
now testing Radio v1.08.25.20, HDSPA signal is bit weaker atm.
my best radia atm i think, v1.00.25.08.
im betting, that the starter of this toppic, who has 5 access points in his house all have the same SSID. This is not the way.
Or make 1 big AP aera, bij connecting the AP's to each other.
of try to set every AP its own SSID, and its own Channel.

i also have the same problem. it detects a wifi (my router at home Aztech brand), then trying to connect to it, and then it always showed the wifi as "unavailable". i put my phone 2 mm distance from the antenna of my router it also won't connect. i have change dozens of roms, win 6.1, 6.5, 6.5.1, different cook, MTTY, all with no success.
i've looked for internet and google for answers, i seen quite a lot of forum has described this issue, but with no solution. most of the ppl suggest in various forums to pull the wireless slider to "Best Performance", ofcourse i have done that, but is just the same result.
i'm still trying searching for a solution for this, i hope is not a hardware issue because my warranty has already ended. i'm currently using Gen Y R4.1B rom

Ok consider now wifi will work by re-flashing the spl.
But what is the relation between spl (os/winmo loader) with wifi?
another dang unsolved diamond wifi?
bravo.
same problem with wifi on diamond2
With Original stock WM6.1 i was unable to connect at all, after flashed official WM6.5 upgrade everything worked fine. However i decided to put cooked rom because of battery life and perfomance issues. Dutty HG6 for Topaz seems to be with glitchy radio, it works sometimes, very rare, and i'm still not up to the pattern when does it happen and why. Pretty sure it's not a hardware problem - so everybody relax, we will find the solution.

GPRS not working after official HTC Rom upgrade :(

Hi,
I have a major problem. I can't get internet via gprs to work after the new 2.03 upgrade. I've tried two hard resets but nothing helps. The upgrade went fine and everything else works good, wifi & even MMS! which I think is strange since it uses gprs aswell... It sends and recieves MMS fine both with 3G, HSDPA & on Edge...
The connection wizard finds my correct settings and installs them, I've tried adding the correct settings manualy aswell. I've done it a million times before so I know it's correct. I have 3G coverage aswell since I can see the 3G on top. I don't use any static ip wifi connection either so the bug can be ruled out.
IE, Opera, Mail, Weather etc etc... nada, I can't get anything to connect. I see the arrows on top when it starts to connect and after a few seconds I get the connection error.
Please help, my phone feels worthless now...
try to get back to 1.93 and then re-flash the 2.03
Ok but is it possible installing this 2.03 again can help??? I mean so I don't have to go back to 1.93 first because I have no idea how to do it? I've not very experienced when it comes to changing roms since I always just flash the official ones...
Installed the older 1.93 again, still doesn't work
There seem to be no problem with the hardware since MMS works and uses GPRS, 3G, HSDPA & etc...
I think I give up, have to live without internet in my phone it seems
It's most likely a configuration problem rather than a hardware one.
Are you SURE the Internet access is configured EXACTLY to your provider's specifications?
Hi to all, please Owziee , did you fix your issue???
Hi, I´m from Spain and I have the same problem with my HTC Diamond. It was working very good with a cooking rom but after upgrade with the new original version from HTC don´t work GPRS connection.
I tested first with hard reset and second ,changing differents radios and spl in the way to found an answer for my problem but I didn´t found it.
I was checking the connection data from Orange for it was wrong but I saw all correct.
I created the connection manually first and automatically after it with the HTC Connection setup , but did´t work either.
Please Is there any way to fix it???.
Thanks in advanced

Constantly Intermittent Connection

I have an AT&T Tilt, and I ran the unlocker on it.
Recently I installed the TPC V11 Chumpstyle rom which is a 6.5 rom. Things seemed fine on it for the first couple days but then I noticed it was constantly disconnecting without notice from the service. Texts would randomly stop going through, and when I would go to make a call, it would end the call after about 10 seconds of unsuccessful dialing. Same with the data.. no browser would work.
I decided to try out different radios and different SPLs, even mirroring peoples setups which I assume were working since they have them in their sig lines.
These are the combinations I have tried:
HardSPL 3.29
USED:
1.70.19.09 - Intermittent. Only gets off 4-5 text messages before disconnect.
1.65.21.18 - No 3G connection
1.71.09.01 - No Service
1.70.18.02 - Intermittent disconnect
1.65.17.54 - Long connection time after startup - refuses to connect
HardSPL 3.56
USED:
1.64.08.21 - 4 minute connection time on startup, camera doesn't work
1.71.09.01 - No Service
1.70.19.09 - Intermittent disconnect
1.70.18.02 - No Service
HardSPL 3.34 Dave
USED:
1.70.18.02 - No Service
1.70.19.09 - Intermittent
What surprises and annoys me most is right now I have the stock rom/radio
Rom: 3.57.502.2
Radio: 1.65.21.18
and it does the same exact thing. It is very intermittent, works for 5 minutes after startup, and then nothing.
Nothing on the forum I have been able to search has helped me with this issue, and any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
one more thing comes to mind that might be worth a shot...
try to disable the 3G/HSDPA mode altogether and configure the device for plain GSM mode only. see how that fairs with the stock configuration or any of the "recommended" combinations of SPL and radio.
ASC - thanks for the reply. I am not certain how to disable 3g/hsdpa modes. I'll look around to figure it out and then post my results here.
Thanks again
It seems that the edge still connects, but I am having the same issues. Just randomly stops all connection
This is the same issues mine developed within the last month. No luck yet tho.

Just lovely. I really would like a way to fix it. I don't plan on paying 125.00 for the insurance costs to get a new one, and really don't want to spend 300.00 on a TP2.
Thanks for your post, keep me updated if possible!
After looking at some of the newer thread posts, I think I may have a hardware issue here. Anyone able to tell offhand whether it isn't or if it could be, and/or if it is possible to fix?
I swapped out my motherboard with a friends who had given me thiers last year due to a broke screen. I did a Sprite back up and everything has been good for 24 hours.
Hey I think I have a similiar problem
2 weeks ago I was home and just lost service while the rest of my family and i usually had serivice. I would get service occasionally but only for 30 seconds or so and maybe like once every 15 minutes.
So I went back to school and for 2 straight weeks I had absolutely no problems.. and now I'm home again and I have the same problem..
Also last night I started using an old RAZR and it worked fine untill this afternoon seems to be acting the same, but when I went to ATT last time I was given a new SIM card...
Really weird.
I went through the SIM card swap as well. From what rob said it sounds like a hardware issue. Bad batch of AT&T Tilts all going bad around the same time?
I used advanced config to shut off data connections and then set my band to GSM and mine works fine now..
I just did the same using Advanced Config. I'll see what happens. I have no "Band" setting tab.
Did that help mini... after i did that mine "kinda" worked but then when i switched the band it worked perfect. I think you might have do so something in advanced to get the band tab to appear in "Connections." Ill try to figure out what I did
Try to see if you have the "Band" tab under "Phone", sorry it's not under connections, its right after network. I I switched network type from auto to GSM. If the page isnt there in advanced config under phones there is an option to "Show Band Page"
Also same intermittant issue w HSDPA
All,
My rom (Athene) has a setting under connections to disable HSDPA. I've found the phone works pretty well with HSDPA disconnected. I've also tried different radios and still having the same problem.
My assumption is that the TILT (8925) was never really designed for HSDPA or that the spec has changed since AT*T has started implementing it.
When I have HSDPA turned on, it works for about 2-5 mins then I cannot use Medianet or make/receive calls.
However, I know that HSDPA is working sometimes, because I did a speed test and found that I got approx 450kbps w/ HSDPA turned on. With EDGE, I only get 140-150kbps.
I say we all petition AT&T (or whoever your provider is) as well as HTC and require that they provide us with new versions of the TILT that actually support HSDPA properly. Obviously, if that many of us have the same problem and we all have different rom's and radios, it's got to be a network or hardware issue.
I plan to call / write ATT & HTC today. I'll let you know my findings.
Regards,
Austin
It's definitely got to be HTC/AT&T's fault. This is no coincidence. This is bs.
Well, I just got off the phone with Asurion and I have some good news.
As the Kaiser is no longer manufactured, and the HTC Fuze replacement they offered me does not fit my needs, they are replacing my Kaiser with a brand new Rhodium with a 12 month warranty. Farewell, Kaiser forum!
