Phone Call disconnects without valid reasons...

Hi guys,
I''m new to this forum and I'm also new to HTC Diamond. However I found great guidance to "upgrade" my MDA Compact IV to HTCs original patched rom (1.93.407.1 GER) and had a radio update to 1.00.25.05, but after upgrading to these versions with Hard SPL oni 1.30, my phone is experience problems with phone calls. Whenver I'm at a phone call either I my HTC looses signal so that I cannot hear my counter part or It simply disconnects. I'm pretty annoyed with this and I dont know what to do.
Would appreciate answer on If some one is experiencing simliar problems or on a guideline to how to "cure" my phone.
Thank you!

And btw I'm also having this problem where I cannot hear the caller nor can the caller hear me the first 2-3 secs. Is this due to my upgrade? Or is It a radio prob or maybe the rom itself?

i would suggest changing the Radio... although i havent heard of problems with this radio version before (i am using it too)

Thanks for the reply mugglesquop. Neither have I heard of anything bad regarding this version, but I'm a bit worried. Can It be also a hardware defect? And If you would suggest me to switch to another radio, which version would It be? If I perform an upgrade of radio I will need to re-install rom as well. Is this true?

ATT Tilt- possible radio problems, total noob needs help

Hi guys, I really did search first, I promise. I have been having connectivity issues (not making calls, lost data connections, etc...) since I updated to the ATT Official Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM (3.57.502.2 WWE) with radio version 1.65.21.18. I am trying to determine if I need to upgrade my radio version. I found the thread with all the radio versions for my phone but don't know anything about them. I did get that I should try different ones until I find one that works for me. So do I need to install the HardSPL on my phone (or did the Official ATT rom upgrade do that already)? From there do I run that RUU.exe file on the desktop (or what)? It would be great if someone could put this in super simple terms for me.
Thanks in advance,
-Max

one word for your info, "WIKI"

I did look over the wiki for some time, here is my hang up. Jockyw2001 posted in an SPL thread that "SPL3.56 is part of the latest AT&T Rom which is dated June 6. 2008" So since I did the official ATT upgrade and my ROM date is 07/17/08, does that mean that I already have SPL 3.56 on my device? I can not find a post about how to determine what SPL version (if any) is installed on my device. If SPL is already installed, is there any danger in installing an older version of SPL or reinstalling one?
Thanks again

So you are saying that the stock rom and stock radio are not working correctly, no cooked roms or other carrier radios?
Did the problems start right after you updated?
Oh and your problem seems similar to the one in this thread here, well least is sounds similar to me anyways...

Yup, stock radio and rom as suggested by ATT, whom their customer service now claims they do not support WM6.1. I've never used a cooked rom and really only come here for device information and applications. I did have problems before I upgraded the rom but they have much worse since. The thread you posted is similar but they mostly talk about an "H" connection. I am in the DC metro area (USA) and get 3G all the time now, I wonder if that is part of the problem, I never get an EDGE network signal anymore.

Well... I just found THIS buried over on the ATT support forums

I guess we just got 3G network here. I haven't been able to make/receive calls for 5 days now. Tech support supposedly looking into issue. My phone switches bewteen 3G and EDGE constantly. Anyone else having this issue? What was the resolution? I don't want a refurbished Tilt if they can't come to a resolution (why would I want the same darn phone if it doesn't work well with 3G as advertised?) I have already drove 20 minutes to the nearest store for a new SIM card..which did no good. There isn't anyway of turning off 3G network unless I install software I have seen mentioned on this forum and well, I don't know about that...I paid for this phone to do what it said, and it isn't.

And this is the reply to it over there....

Common problem that can be either due to problems with the rollout or that the local towers cannot handle 3G as effectively or at a greater distance as the same tower could for Edge. These are some related threads and posts but there are a lot more. As noted in these posts if there is a local AT&T store run by AT&T then you might pop in and confirm some of the problems with them.

The tendency is to blame the phone but the reality is often different and that includes from customer support who offered to swap my phone several times but this obviously would not work because it affected many other users as well differing phone manufacturers and models.

Timing of it is close enough to make me wonder, but I had been using HSDPA.. But I have been getting the same problems you are talking about when the phone is set to 3g as well. The other thing that is starting to make me think its something ATT did to their network is that the OP from the thread that I linked on here lives 20 mins west of my location, and I am 15-20 mins north of DC... I may go to one of the local att stores and see what they have to say (tho that means for me that I get to flash my phone back to the stock rom )

tytn 2, cant get a signal ?

i recently bought the htc tytn 2, got it off ebay. Has the following rom
rom version 3.29.707.owwe
rom date 08/20/08
radio version 1.65.30.09
protocal version 25.101.40.08h
the problem :
Im on o2 network, its unlocked, and i recieved texts this morning on it, but the signal is crap compared to my iphone, or any other phone, its like 2 bar, and thats only occasionaly, it looses signal and takes forever to come back (if it does), its really not handy
can anyone help me, i read a few other posts using the search on the forum, and they said something about radio ???? im guessing thats what recieves the signal, and some people tried changing the gsm, again i have no clue what that is.
OH im new to the forums , so i hi guys
hope someone can help me, this phone really is awsome

If you think you need to replace the radio, here's the Ultimate Radio Thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393182
There are instructions on the page on how to update the radio, but first I suggest you read on ROM and Radio updates on the Wiki. It'll save you some grief and worries I image.
As for why your Tilt is performing badly, it very well could be the radio because the other user perhaps was on another network, but if you find what seems like an appropriate radio and it doesn't help you might have discovered why it was on ebay.

Problems, repairable?

Well my Kaiser has been through a bit of ware and tare as normal, but hasn't been able to take as much as the Hermes it seems. I'm having the following problems,
1. Screen can be unresponsive intermittently.
2. Some keyboard keys you really have to push HARD to work
3. if I use the Hands Free kit and remove it, next time I make a phone call the Microphone and/or the Ear speaker(on the unit) will not function.
The Unit is still under warranty, however I've flashed a different ROM on it. Providing I can an original or Official upgraded ROM, would these faults be covered?
My unit is a HTC TyTN II, bought from 3 Australia on a contract. so if someone would like to help me find the ROM that'd also be good (I've looked at the Stock ROM list but haven't found any 3 Australia Roms.)
Many thanks

did your problems exist before you upgraded the ROM? if the problems appeared exactly AFTER upgrading your ROM, then problems 1 and 3 should be solvable (or can be reduced) by looking into flashing a compatible RADIO ROM (matching the ROM with a suitable radio ROM version is paramount to avoiding speaker and screen freeze problems). read the wiki for more information.
if the problems appeared randomly on their own, it could indeed indicate a hardware problem.
good luck!
EDIT: my bad, i totally forgot to mention the significance of the SPL version you are using with the ROM. once again, assuming the problems appeared exactly after the ROM upgrade, it is important to match BOTH the RADIO ROM as well as the SPL version with the ROM you have on your device.
SPL mismatches are known to cause screen freeze and speaker issues and RADIO mismatches are known to cause camera and speaker issues.

Hey,
Nah they didn't happen straight after, Well perhaps the Hands Free, but not sure.
With the SPL / Radio, It was all a bit too overwhelming to see what's compatible, so I just got the most recent SPL, Radio and Rom when I upgraded.

unlike normal software where "latest is greatest" usually, ROMs are a different beast...to get your device to purr along happily, it is imperitive to have a combination of ROM + Radio + SPL that is known to work correctly. unfortunately, the latest is greatest approach simply doesn't work and you will invariably end up facing strange otherwise inexplicable issues. there are issues reported rampantly of screen issues being solved by SPL upgrades...similarly speaker/sound issues are also reported and solved with a high frequency by ensuring fully matched combinations.
its a one-time read...start at the wiki...also search for mskip's excellent newbie ROM flashing guide...good luck!

Ahk, cheers for the heads up.
I might try what your using, as my rom is HyperDragon III. Would you be as kind to provide links for your SPL Rom and Radio?
Ta

you should be reading about all of this in the kaiser wiki and especially in the HyperDragon thread
the links to the wiki thread, the hyperdragon thread, as well as the links to my SPL thread and my radio thread are ALL already in my signature...have a look see!
as a summary for you (cuz you're not doing enough reading and i'm feeling good today ), just stick to the radio that comes with the ROM but do install cmonex hard SPL 3.29 to "complete" the combination recommended by the chef of that ROM

As you suggested, I read up about Radio's ,SPL's and ROM's. So I'm going to give it a go, however I'm trying to find Hyper Dragon IV, but can't find a DL link.

Let us know if the new Radio and ROM's work.
I'm having some similar issues too

I Gave up, restored it to it's initial state and sent it on warranty. Going to be without it for upto 6 weeks!!!

AT&T 3G Connection Issues

Hello everyone,
I have done a ton of google searches and spent about an hour reading through threads of people with similar problems. I have flashed a few roms and different spl/radios etc. Nothing seems to fix the problem.. Nor have I seen anyone in a post had their problem fixed either - they were just criticized and told to search the forums or read a generic faq on flashing radios..
Anyways, after reading all that and trying a few different radios nothing seems to help.
My device, while connected to 3G, can usually make 1 call when it first connects, then each call thereafter will fail with a beep beep beep.
I am running 3.29.Hard spl
Rom Version TPC_V10_MEGA WWE
Radio Version 1.70.18.02
Protocol Version 25.83.40.02W
Has anyone found a successful combination to correct their issues with the 3g network and their tilt? If you have no issues and have the same phone please post your build.
I have flashed from original roms and a few diff radios to no avail .
I really want my damned 3g to work.. and no I dont want to just manually switch to EDGE (which is what I have my phone forced on now).
Thanks in advance.

same here
I have had the same issue. The phone will show H or 3G and you cannot make a call. I have just accepted using the edge system to keep the phone working fine. The only thing you loose is the faster internet speed the phone otherwise works fine. I have assumed that I dropped the phone and something happened to the antenna. I contacted HTC about the issue and they say it is a hardware issue even though I have seen many speak of the same issue. I have the tilt.

I thought I did the same thing until I started searching and see that there are numerous people with the same issue.
I will just be patient and wait until a new winmobile phone comes out with a oversized screen! Hope the next xperia is that

Radio Issue
I had the same problem with that radio. I changed back to the 1.65 radio and everything worked properly again. I hope this helps.

See my sig for what I am running. I have run TPC's roms as well as others and almost every 6.1 compatible radio there is and have never encountered that problem.
Have you tried to go back to stock everything, rom radio and spl to see if that makes the difference ?
