ROM/Radio problem? T-Mobile Compact IV - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi guys, thanks for looking in at my problem.
I decided to move away from N95 for the greener pastures of an MDA, of which i had previously had a Vario, and liked the basics of it, anyway,
I have a T-Mobile Compact IV (Diamond -Diam200) with original shipped ROM
ROM: 1.37.110.3
Radio 1.00.25.03
I was wanting to increase battery time (cute coming from an N95 i know), reduce battery heating prob, speed up and 'fix' some of the little bugs on it.
So i followed guides and instruction from the guys on here and things were going so well.
First off i used the unsigned HardSPL, which worked as instructed.
Then i flashed it to RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
This worked, but had an issue such that I could receive messages, but got the dreaded "Your text message cannot be sent."
And when i tried to check settings for text/voice messages it constantly said 'cant connect try later.'
So, hope your still with me here and havent dropped off,
I tried, in this order, but still the same error.
Diamond_Radio_1.00.25.08
SwiftBL-WWE-Diamond-v7-0-Full-12MbPP -good rom btw
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
Neither solved my problem, so i re-flashed back to original ROM, found on here also. Now I can text happily again, no error.
What am i doing wrong?

UPDATE:
it would seem as though only Radio 25.03 works for me with any of the excellent cooked ROMs.
Anyone shed any light on why? and has this any known major deficits ie battery power, etc?
Thanks

I got my mdac4 on Thursday and found that the stock rom was quite slow and pug ugly! So rather than rebrand the touch pro I installed the Swiftblade rom and ended up with a nice fast device but no sound at all and I had problems sending texts. So I then installed the panosha rom and 08 radio and very nice it is!

thanks Stunno, found the fault, it was my dated SIM, got a new one today and dutifully upgraded to 25.05.
Job done. Good times

HELP,HELP needed to Downgrade from the new ROM 2.8.7.1?

Sorry guys to bug you but i need your help.How can i revert back to
Qtek_9100 old rom 1.6.7.1 after upgrading to 2.8.7.102?I downloaded a new 1.6.7.1 ROM, tried that several times and it kept on telling me that I'm using a newer ROM therefore an upgrade is not possible.Could you outline to me or point me to a detailed info for downgrading cause the new ROM is not stable on my device(Qtek 9100).It keeps on rebooting even during a call and when i'm running other applications.
I'd appreciate your kind help.Thanks a mil.
I have a similar problem. Except I need to go back to my original tmobile MDA ROM. A2DP works fine, but nothing else is working for me. How can I go back?

Did you backup your original rom? Also is aWizard not letting you go back to your previous rom? I have posted the production T-Mobile USA ROM in a different post on the board if you don't have your old ROM.
I am also curious what the issues are you are having as I have been wondering about trying the test ROM on a USA unit for T-Mobile going from 1.x to 2.x as you did.
I could use a link to the TMO USA MDA ROM just in case I need to exchange the machine. That said, I am having absolutely NO problems with the QTEK TEST ROM. However, I did lvlolvlo's trick and after I had flashed the new ROM, when it said that in 3 seconds it would install the extended ROM, I quickly soft-reset, and then installed the extended ROM stuff from TMobile. This automatically set up my internet, and made the email triggers a snap. I can now use my Motorola STEREO bluetooth headset (even has a mic for the phone). As an added bonus, with the TMO ROM, I was unable to have both MortButtons and MS VoiceCommand installed simultaneously (something about the startup folder), but with the QTEK ROM they both work.
You know, I came from the 6315, and this machine is FLAWLESS ... really a top-notch device, with the QTEK ROM, it is even better.
If you would like me to test out any functionality with this configuration, let me know, I'd be happy to test it out.
Can you get me that link to the original TMO ROM just in case?
I posted this not too long ago. It has the main rom and a link to the extended rom.

The reason I ask about your functionality is that you said your bluetooth stereo profile was working now but nothing else was? I am tempted to switch to the newer rom but not without some assurance it works semi decently. I am mainly interested in the Radio rom upgrade as mine seems to take a while to re-obtain a signal once it is lost and it ocassionally appears to not accept calls (going to voicemail) even though it has signal strength.

Annoying sluggish behaviour - T-Mobile MDA Vario III

I have a T-Mobile UK, MDA Vario III and have to say for me personally this is the best "all-rounder" of the MDA Vario phones I've had so far. I also use phoneAlarm v2.10 (latest) to assist in making profiles on the phone easier to switch between.... one gripe though (and I don't know WHY this happens)...
I'm in the middle of writing a text, or even generally using the phone, and it decides to just stop working for about 5 seconds. All screen and keyboard response just stops! Then it kicks back in again. Very annoying!
Does anyone else have this problem, seen it, or even better still, do they have a fix for this? By the way am also using the default WM6 Pro CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2) that came with it from T-Mobile UK.
yeah i have a fix for your problem, which i suffered from too when i had a mda vario III: flash a new rom!
i am currently running duttys wm6 dualtouch v4 and it is so much better than the t-mobile rom. it has fixed so many issues that i had just taken for granted a permanent problems. Trust me it is like buying a newer better phone, but for free!

Really? Sounds good. Let me see where I can get this from and see the issues. Are there any issue with duttys though? (he says being the old sceptic).
And most importantly what's the battery life like? I got rid of "HTC Home" which chomped battery power like crazy, even using just GSM and not HSDPA.
There were no big issues for me. One thing I did have a problem with was I didn't hard reset the device after flashing the new ROM. This caused a few problems. Once I had done this they went away. The device is alot quicker. One issue I have found is that I can't change the cube icons. A little gripe but no other problems with this ROM otherwise.
Hi bennyb0y,
I had the same problem on this machine. I eventually tracked down my problem to the BBC 24 custom template I was using with Spb Traveler for weather - it was using most of the cpu time! Solution - use another template.
Regards,
Paul
I had the same problem with my vario III and the best thing I've done to date with it was to update to Sleuths ROM. It's damn fast, not buggy, doesn't crash, has all the features you could want and the best thing is, it was so simple to do. Just read the wiki to unlock etc, then follow Sleuths easy instructions. The ROM is called someting like "so many ROMS so little time" V3.0 (or somthing like that).
It does what it says on the tin.

help! phone isn't working properly :(

Hi all, had my Kaiser a while now and have been using a few different ROMs in this time which have all worked great! The last ROM I used was HyperDragon III. It worked fine for a few days, then started playing up massively. It intermittantly works - Some times I won't receive anything for 3-4 hours, then receive loads of texts and missed calls at once.
T-mobile checked the network, etc. and everything was fine. Re-flashed it back to the original ROM from on here (T-Mobile UK) and it's still playing up the same!
When I put my SIM in a different phone, it works perfectly.
What else can I do/try? I *think* I flashed back to the right radio too but not 100% sure. How do I check what radio/rom versions are currently on the phone?
Thanks!
Radio version can be found @ bootup R: , remeber that the recomended radio may not apply to you as there region specific, so the best bet is to look @ people sigs in your area and see what radio they are using?
Your in the UK try 1.70.19.09 on cooked ROM it's what i always use
R:1.27.15.32
G 22.51.88.13h
D 156.00.00
That's what I got on startup.
For some reason too, when I restart the phone, before it comes to that screen it shows the Hyper Dragon screen first!
I'll try a different radio and ROM then I'm worried it's not a fault with the actual phone..
never mind, advice already given
Well I've upgraded to 1.70.19.09 Radio and Anryl Ultimate Release 3.
Phone seems alright after 20 minutes, but it'll need a few days of testing.
It's not looking good so far - I've just soft-reset my phone and it set the time back to 13:32.. Which certainly isn't the time! It was doing this before when it wasn't working properly too.
This ROM seems incredibly buggy too! Opera keeps closing itself, as well as a few other programs.. randomly!
Help please! I'm frustrated.

Some times if you don't do a hard reset right after flashing successfully, before the phone set up, things will act buggy. Make sure you do the hard reset.

This should do the trick. I think the recent Hyperdragon Roms are WM6.1 and the radio you had listed is for WM6.0. This can cause all sorts of hangs/volume problems etc. Also check which SPL version you have - A WM6.0 SPL can also cause hangs etc if used on a WM6.1 rom.
EDIT: sorry, only read the radio bit of the fix.
Make sure you get rom/radio and SPL all matched ie WM6.0 or WM6,1. Most of the latest roms are WM6.1. If you find Anryls rom buggy, just try another one - I love the Garmin series.
Thanks for the advice How would I check which SPL I'm on?
Unfortunately I've hard reset it with Anryl and still running terribly. Lost the network this morning too so I received a text a few hours late.
I think I'm just going to go with a ROM that's as lite as possible now!
Sorted - I've upgraded to Hard SPL 3.28 and I'll flash the ROM to something lighter. Thanks guys
It appears to be working fine except I'm still having the problem of it changing the time!
Just checked the phone and it's saying 16:50.. Although half an hour ago it read the correct time. Any ideas?
I'm using Galarm 1.4 if it makes a difference. Running Athine Lite now.
Sorry everyone - Phone still isn't working properly. On the correct SPL, correct radio and correct ROM.. done a hard reset.. And it still just keeps losing network! Think my phone might be broken in some way?
I *assume* it's under warranty.. I got it under a year ago, but got it due to an insurance claim of my Hermes, they replaced it with a Kaiser.
When I phoned T-Mobile, they said although I got it from the t-mobile store, I'd need to speak to my Insurance company.
BUT I'd need to put it back to standard for Warranty purposes! I've no idea what I'd need to go back to..
thanks everyone
bump - anyone?

Weird problem, poss radio issue?

I recently flashed my phone to Dutty's dual touch 6.1 rom (from hyperdragon 3) and ever since i did phone calls have been a bit hit & miss. Ill ring someone and they wont be able to hear me, or ill ring someone and from the minute it ''connects'' i get a sort of staticy noise even after i hang up. Only way to get rid of it is to do a soft reset.
Am i right in thinking this is probably to do with the radio being miss matched? never had the problem before so just wanted to check it is before i started playing around with it.
if it is the radio, is it just a matter of hunting around for a new radio that goes with duttys ROM & flashing it in a similar way to flashing a new rom?
thanks guys
========================
MOD EDIT:
Please refrain from creating multiple posts about same topics. This is against xda forum rules. I have merged both of your threads together.
i also struggle to connect to any wifi networks. iv reflashed Dutty's latest 6.1 ROM (dual touch afaik) but it still has problems. I always thought dutty's Rom came with their own radio?
thanks guys
Wifi - unable to connect?
Last few days iv struggled to conect to any wifi network. When i select the network and try and connect the phone just sits there ''connecting'' until it tells me its unavaliable. iv tried on 2 different networks, both which have worked in the past.
It started when i flashed to Hyperdragon III ROM, then reflashing two of Dutty's ROM (latest 6.1 and dual touch) still hasnt sorted the problem.
Iv tried searching and couldnt find anything, and im getting a tad desperate tbh. I thought it could have been a problem with the radio, but both of duttys ROM come with their own radios and they have worked for me in the past.
This is a clean install, on Duttys latest 6.1 ROM and im lost for ideas!
Can anyone offer any advice? cheers guys

Weird Kaiser Bahavior mostly after Standby

Hi,
I have a Kaiser with the following Items:
ROM: 3.31.111.4 GER (downloaded from german T-Mobile Site)
Rom Date: 09/01/08
Radio: 1.59.42.15 (from here, more about it further down)
Protocolle Version: 25.83.30.07H
Here the Problem:
I used to have a Custom ROM on this Kaiser (see my previouse Posts) but since i had some Issues about GPS and so on i decided to go back to the original T-Mobile ROM and downloaded it from theyre german Website.
Everything seemed to be working nice till i noticed that i didnt get as many Calls as i used to.
I went to check my Amount i had left on my Prepaid Card by hitting *101# and send but all i always got was a Message saying *Session ended*, instead of my Amount on my Account.
So i tryed to make a Phonecall with my Kaiser but all i heard was like a Pianolike multitone Chirp in the Speaker.
So i deleted all the Programs i have added, like TOMTOM6, and some Games and i rebooted the Kaiser to find out i could make Calls again.
Shortly thereafter i noticed that this would happen every Time my Kaiser was in Suspend Mode/ Standby so i deactivaed this.
Today i noticed that it happened again even i still had Suspend disabled.
I have already called HTC here in Germany today and all the LAdy told me to try to flash the T-Mobile ROM again and see if it still does the same as it does now, and if so to go to a T-Mobile Shop.
I have looked on this great Site but since i have PC Issues at this Time as well as PPC Issues i cant read through the entire Kaiser Section, I am sorry.
I have already tryed multiple Radios from the BIG RADIO Thread, but no changes.
Does anyone know of any FIX of this, does anyone else have this Issue too?
I would be very Helpfull for any Solution because i really dont want to have them send it in, since i dont know which Radio was on it Stock, nor do i wanna be w ithout it for weeks if i can fix it somehow, even i would much rather have a Diamond in exchange for it (yeah i know i am a dreamer LOL)
Thanks in Advance for any Suggestions, Help or Solutions.
