Wifi problems with wm6.1 - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Ive searched for answers for my problem but the people with Wifi problems on wm6.1 are a little different from mine. My problem is that once my phone is connected to my home network and ALL bars are showing full Wifi reception, I begin to brows and an error message pops up after a few second of searching and says something like cannot find. check the name and try again. Ive talked to ATT and they told me they dont know what it is and to call HTC for more troubleshooting, i did that and HTC said that really once I get the phone from ATT it becomes their problem BUT the rep. from HTC did more than what the rep did from ATT. So if anyone has some solutions it would be most appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time

Calls drop

Guys,
When I got my P3600 some weeks ago I didn't experience any problems with problems with calls dropping. But ever since I've upgraded to WM6 I am experiencing this problem... the calls drop at random, sometimes I can talk for hours without any disconnect, and sometimes the call drops and I cannot even call the person back... And even after downgrading to the shipped rom, I still have this problem... That made me wonder if maybe I have had problem when I got the device but at that point I was just lucky not to have calls dropping.
Yesterday was the last time a call dropped on me. I couldn't call the person back, the phone didn't establish a new connection. When I finally got the person back on the phone (2 minutes later) he/she said that the whole time she thought I was driving through a tunnel and that I would reconnect because... I stayed connected at the other phone... After 2 minutes, she said, the connection was finally broken and that's when I was able to call again.
So sounds to me that windows mobile disconnects me and that the operators network still keeps my number connected.
Well, needless to say, I want to fix this issue. I have a 3G Vodafone NL subscription but I read that 3G could be the cause of my issue. so I've just disabled 3G. Now I'm just running on GPRS... Which isn't how I want it to stay. Any ideas, same experience/ pointers how to solve this?
Thnx. Arend
Reply from HTC
This is the reply I got from HTC:
Try to remove it off 3G go to settings / phone / band - then select GSM from the top drop down menu.
Should now reset.
If it comes up with an error, turn on flight mode then do the above again.

So based on this reply it seems that 3G might be causing my issue.
I replied to HTC:
I have followed your instructions but now I can only use gprs... but I have a 3G subscription with my provider. So even if this workaround works, it's not to my satisfaction.
Pls advice.

I'll post their reply.
Further, if someone has more info on the subject please let me know.
Same problem here...
No issues before upgrading to WM6. Sometimes the call drops out after a few minutes, sometimes a few seconds, and sometimes already after a few rings. The other day I had to make a call 5 or 6 times to finish the conversation - very annoying...
I'm running the first official Australian WM6 release for Dopod/HTC, i.e. the one that got pulled off the web for a while. Possibly going to the newer release of the ROM update solves the problem? Even though I think both versions run on the same radio ROM.
I've used the same rom as you to upgrade to WM6. But in my case, even when downgrading to the shipped rom, I still had calls dropping. And like you, sometimes after minutes, seconds etc.
Still having no drops since I have turned 3G off. But I just wanted to look something up on the internet... took minutes to get the info on my screen with GRPS, so it's not much like a solution.
This is the reply of HTC:
Dear sir,
Regarding your situation with the device , I would suggest you, to? resolve your issue with the network coverage ,to practice a hard reset on your mobile with the following step:
START -> Setting->System->CLEAR STORAGE and follow the procedure, if you have already done this manipulation , I would direct you? to this service and check the right number on this area with your network ush the green button to call->then go to menu-> option ->Services->select the on the following list ->Voice mail etc-> and then get setting -> and check that the number is right with your network provider.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Needless to say, but I'll say it anyway, I have performed hard resets... indeed, multiple
The second action they adviced, sounded a bit strange to me. But when I retrieved the settings I saw that there was no number filled in for voicemail. So I've entered 1233 (Vodafone NL voicemailnumber).
So maybe the last action has nothing to do with my issue, but who knows.
So now I am running again on 3G. I'll keep y'all posted.
Just checked it on my device and there is already an entry under voice mail. So I severly doubt that it has anything to do with the voice mail settings, too.
No, I guess you are right.
Further, since I am running 3G my signal I noticed my signal is weaker then running GPRS-only. My calls have not dropped since but I do get complaints that people sometimes cannot hear what I say because my line goes dead, and a moment later it's back again.
I've got another reply from HTC:
---
If a hard reset didn't solve the problem and the problem only occurs when switching to 3G, than this can be caused by the following;
1. Problem with the device.
2. Problem with the network, ???
I would suggest to test your SIM in another HTC device with 3G and see what happens. If it happens again than it is a? problem with the network. If it works with that 3G device than it could be a faulty device. The experience is that it is related to the 3G network himself. If it is a network issue, than you can ask them to deactivate the 3G/HSDPA.
We can't find this out for you in the UK, you need to see if you could determine the problem yourself.
---
Thus the support of HTC.
So now I have written an email to vodafone. I'll keep you posted.
Same problem !
Try to flash your device with ROM_Radio 1.41.00.11,

Ok... but I'm somewhat confused... are you experiencing the same problem with 1.41.00.11? Or did you solve the problem by flashing to 1.41.00.11?
2----> solve by reflashing with 1.41.00.11
Ok, I've upgraded to 1.41.00.11.
So far, I've experienced no calls dropping on me.
Nevertheless, I've also made a phonecall to Vodafone explaining the issue. They acknowlegde the issue... SAY WHAT?!! Yes... they acknowledge the issue and recommend turning the device to GRPS only. WHAT?!!.. Chill, they can at least try that, who knows, maybe I would have said yes.
So, I explained GPRS only is not an option since it is a tiny bit slower then what I am paying for.
They've put the call through to their 2nd line and keep me informed. So as soon as I hear something I will get back to you.
ps. What I found very great is that they did not cut it off with "Ow, you are using the HTC P3600... I'm sorry, we do not support that device." Vodafone NL, keep up this great level of support!
Ok, so far I've heard nothing from Vodafone. And so far I have had one call that dropped. So although that is a huge improvement, it still sucks.
So... now what? The way I see it:
1. I want to have fast internet on my PDA (3G), so only GPRS is not an option
2. There are problems with the 3G network which make calls drop every now and then
3. Vodafone isn't going to fix this in a short period of time.
So the question is: what is more import to me: 3G or a reliable phone connections?
The answer is: reliable phone connection.
So I will switch my network to GSM instead of auto and when
I really need fast internet I will switch to 3G.
Case closed... well, not really... but still, case closed.
Hi
I think is not the operator problem and could be the phone problem, I am using the D810 in Singapore with Starhub and have the same problem with drop calls once I use 3G network. If I switch to GSM only than is perfect no drop calls and calls quality improve also.
So sad having a 3.5G phone and can't use 3.5G service
Could be, but HTC and Vodafone confirmed me that it has to do with the 3G network. And I do not want to know the technical details about all that so I'll leave it at that.

Cant Recieve Calls While on HSDPA, T-Mobile UK

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.

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 ?

Tytn II Sending SMS Issues

Hi Guys,
Ive spent the last 4 hrs trying to figure this problem out and i still cant fix it. This evening i upgraded my HTC branded TyTn II with the official WM 6.1 rom from the e-club aussie website. All went well and when i started up my device everything seemed fine. i was able to send a mms and make a call and i even received a sms from a mate. The problem started when i tried to reply to the sms. i kept getting an error saying " Your Txt Message Could Not Be Sent " and at the bottom of the screen i get a msg saying "error synchronizing". i have no idea what could be wrong? i tried doing a hard reset and even reverting back to WM 6.0 i still get the same problem. I have had this phone for months and nothing like this has ever happened. I am on the Telstra network.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated i cant have my phone not being able to send sms and not being able to receive mms!! as these are the features i use everyday!!

Just had this today myself. I'm not an expert here, so there will probably be more intelligent replies, but try this.
Be sure that ActiveSync isn't running in the background and that you set your connections to point to your GSM carrier, and Internet, rather than work network. See if that does it.
I had this issue with a ROM a while back.. it usually only happened when in landscape mode.. and also happened when another message or phone call was incoming.
Would be useful to see if this is a ROM related problem or a Radio related problem though.
Have you tried another radio?
Or disable 3G and force a pure GSM band.
I had this issue with several phones...

Also happened to me for the first time at 2:52pm today. I was using my Tilt in landscape mode, and immediately after the error came up, I received a text message. I then tapped to retry the send, and it worked.
Hopefully this is just a hiccup with the network...
I am from the UK and have been having the same problem over the last couple of days, aswell as the data not working either!
Phone my supplier (T-Mobile UK) and they said the data was caused by the 3G network being down but couldnt explain the text problem, they sent me some settings and restarted the phone and it seems to now work!

Texts Fail on Tilt running HTC ROM on T-mo

Recently I ran into a really annoying problem on my Tilt. About a week ago the vast majority of my texts started bouncing back. But here's the weird thing: It affects certain contacts more than others. Some contacts can't get my texts at all anymore. None. And they are all on different carriers, from Verizon to T-mo.
The other thing is that the text doesn't bounce back immediately. It can take a few minutes to hours later and THEN I get a "Cannot send message. Try again?" That's pointless. . .hours have gone by and NOW you tell me you can't send it?
It's made texting practically worthless.
It's a Tilt with the HTC OEM 6.1 ROM and radio, HARD SPL 3.56 and no other tweaks. I'm on T-mo and have talked to them and it's not a network issue. I reflashed the phone already. I also replaced my SIM with no effect this week. All other settings for messaging is correct. Nothing has changed on my end for this to happen.
It's killing me. What gives? Anyone else have this problem?
I have it with my wing on tmobile... due to there being no signal or crappy signal. Think of it as a dropped call
Hmm, I suggest using HTC Connection Wizard and see if that works. Cause I know that some people don't enter the settings correctly. Just try that. If not then I dont know.
It's not signal strength. I live in Orlando, FL. And this happens everywhere in the city. It is also a new problem. I have been here for months with this phone.
The settings are correct. The HTC ROM picks up the settings from the SIM card. I also went through all the settings with Tier 3 support at T-mo.

T-Mobile G1 Bug & Issue Questions...

This is not a thread that im complaining but I need to know if im the only one experiencing these bugs and issues . I love the Tmobile g1 but im also fed up with a lot of problems . I think the biggest issue is on the network, I dont think its a OS problem anymore Im pretty sure Im not the only one with the problems because I see these issues posted on google, xda, and other forums, but its appears lately no one is saying anything about these issues and bugs so I want to make sure that im not the only one experiencing these problems.
-Dropped Calls
-Sometimes no internet service
-Sometimes not even being able to call out or send text messages [message not sent]
(usually fixed by restarting my phone)
-I use to not receive notifications (email and texts) but ive fixed that by installing dgAlert.
I called tmobile reguarding these issues and they had me replace my sim card but im still getting problems. I received excellent service, they are calling me back on tuesday to help me out more (they re-registered me on the network but that didnt help either).
*Yes, my g1 is rooted but I highly doubt that is the issue.
The G1 is truely a good release but before they go making another phone (HTC Magic) why havent they took the times to prefect the g1.
Thanks for reading and you sharing your issues or recomendations would be greatly appreciated.
I located this one post also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501146
-Dropped Calls: I used to have this problem quite a bit. I switched to 2G only which seemed to correct the issue. I had a flurry of problems where the 3G network was out sporadically for 2 days and since then I have not had a dropped call with 3G active. I am hoping this was an update to the network and the dropped calls a thing of the past. Not betting on it though.
Edit: submitted by accident
Sometimes No Internet: Except the outage noted above none that I know of.
No notifications: no
Can not make calls: no
