Hi all !
Got my P3600. ROM Version is german ROM 1.16.407.2.
Very nice device !!
Problems until now:
1. Transcend MiniSD 80x not recognized a few times - after 2 days it seems to be ok no more faults with MiniSD Card.
2. Cannot answer GSM calls in mixed GSM/UMTS network - answering 3G calls works fine everytime, answering GSM calls in the same provider network (other location) does not work - software hangs with opened caller bubble.
Hope there will be some ROM Upgrade soon.
Greets,
Gerhard
Somebody claims a similar problem as your one (see Expansys HTC forum). I copy the post here below, since it may be deletet because Expansys is a shop. However, original post can still be seen here:http://www.expansys.it/ft.aspx?i=139981&thread=20

'htc p3600 "unknown sim status" problem'
I just received p3600 from Expansys Greece.
All the functions of the phone are working fine but when I try to use the phone function I constantly get the following messages "unknown sim status" and / or "no signal" and then my phone is freezing. I did try several times to soft as well as hard reset the phone but the problem was not resolved.
I also checked several other sim cards (operating with other phones) with the p3600 and still had the same problem.
I realy don''t know what to do next.
Can the problem be resolved or should I return the product?

I just found out that the phone is working perfect with a vodaphone sim card but it still wont work with my TIM card.
So now I have two choises. 1. I cancel my TIM account and I get a new vodaphone sim card (but I realy don’t like the idea since I have my tel. number unchanged for the past 12 years) or 2. I keep looking why this is happening.
At least I know that there is no damage to the phone.
Let me know about any suggested solutions and why is this happening.
-----------------
your third option is:
there is TIM branded AKU 3.3 Trinity ROM seen on local ftp.
My guess is that TIM branded rom would be compatible to TIM SIM card. There is some simple logic to it
i received this e-mail this weekend in regards to my breeze always dropping calls. it refers to a new update but only via the support centre
Good Morning,
?
The fact that your calls drops is?not normal, if it does that you should try
to Hard reset the device.
If the hard reset doesn't sort the issue you will need to send the phone to
repair.
Note: hard reset will delete all data from the device, you need to save your
personnal files and synchronize your device first.
I can confirm we have recently released a new ROM update for the Mteor.
?
Due to the complex nature of this ROM update we will not be offering this
download via our website. Instead we are offering it through our network of
repair centres.

From the information you have provided your local repair centre are:

does anyone know what the turn around time from being received to being sent out from HTC is?
in regards to a software update and a repair/replacement which would include any tests they'ed need to do.

HI, just try to deactivate the Umts Bandselection... means don't choose Auto .... just try GSM only....
i have Problems to when have activated the AUTO feature...
steve
i have done, thought it fixed it for a whole day aswell, however it seems to make it happen less but it still happens a few times a day
well got the phone back, they actually replaced it so got a new 1 out of the mix and the fact i bought it off ebay second hand - bonus!
the dropping of calls still occurs but it seems its the 3G orange payg sim i have. i will try and get a new one out of orange on saturday and see if that works, i know its the sim as i tried a orange 2G payg sim and it has no problems whatsoever
so its oranges fault and HTC's for not making it work correctly with the sim.
Dan
No new rom on it then? ;p
the rom had a .3 at the end of it instead of .1
the radio was the same too.
My MTeoR arrived today. I also have a "3G sim" or whatever they are.. the one that came with my Nokia N95. That same sim has worked perfectly in my E50 for the past three months, but in the MTeoR I am frequently being disconnected during calls, and even when the phone is off-call, the display changed from "3G Orange" to "No Service" quite frequently.
This is no good
wow, i know it doesn't help its nice to know its not just me breaking the phone like i seem to do to everything electrical
by the way t-mobile, vodafone sims i have work fine in 3g mode, its obviously a orange problem. i have e-mailed them again asking if its a common problem. all i can say is you do the same and maybe our collective voices will be heard.
Hi, I have noticed that a few have already complained about this issue
I'll tell you what happened to me:
I went on holiday from Israel to Jordan for 2 days.
My Kaiser did not roam as my sim wasn't open for Intl. Roaming so it couldn't find a network.
Also I did not charge it so the Battery went dead.
Following that two days I got home gave my Kaiser a full charge and could not get the network back.
I have done many Soft resets, 2 hard resets & spoken to HTC Help Desk.
The only thing HTC could tell me was to send the Kaiser to the UK for repair as they have not heard of this issue before.
Obviously I do not want to send it as I am sure it's not hardware but something else only.
My Kaiser was perched in the US (made in GB)
Network is Cellcom , which by the way I have tried other Sims in me Kaiser since this happened but with no success.
This issue is very frustrating as I feel helpless regarding this issue & I don’t know what to do
If any one has an idea ………….Thanks

First, try just removing the SIM card, then re-inserting it to see if the phone reconfigures itself. You may have to do a power on without sim card, before you re-insert it.
If that fails, do a hard reset so it goes back to factory default settings, then the inserted SIM card should set up the phone settings properly.

Thank, but like I said before……
I have done 2 hard resets tried every way of rebooting with sim / without sim
Nothing works !

hello saper747:
mine switched to flight mode and swap back,it cant find network any more,too,no matter hard-reset or flashing rom,its still.........
looks like we got the same problem, is yours telling "no sevice"? just a "!" on the service icon,right?
Sheng
I think this MIGHT be a bug/issue
I had this last week for almost 4 hours. I dont think the network was down but if it was then T-mobile did not state anything anywhere
I had reception all day and then suddenly around 5:30pm, I lost it and did not get it back until late evening

Hi , yes its the same problem
It shows the networks arround but it can't register to them only the !.. icon
This has nothing to do with the network carier as the sim works in all my other phones .
Hi i was wondering if anyone has a solution yet ?

I have THE SAME situation. I believe this is the bug which MUST be solved by HTC! Or at least by someone. I still haven't found the solution. Have anybody done??
Has anyone tried what happens when 3G is disabled (GSM mode)?
I'm having the same problem for the last couple of days in the UK with Orange, but when I switch to GSM (Settings->Personal->Phone->Band->Network Type = GSM) it works fine.

I tried to do that - no result. I have made hard reset - no result. I have dowloaded update WM6.1 from offical site HTC and installed it - no result.
Also, during two days, I calculated at least 20 persons who had this problem around the world. I can not believe that nobody researched this problem yet!
Me 2
I am also suffering from same issue.
My kaiser drop network at around 5PM till 1 hr approx, it hapeend for a week almost then I update radio then it was working ok, but still its not permanent solution.
Now a days my kaiser leaves network anytime and then it will not connect how hard u try, reset, hard boot, flash anything and after sometime suddenly it works.... magic.
I check sim with other phones its working gr8. but with this phone network gives trouble, I dont have 3G here in India, so its running on GSM.
Please somebody find solution, I'll post if I get any solution.
Thanks,
Dilip
Did you try with manual selection of mobile network (start->Settings->Personal->Phone->Band->Network)?
i did the network setting and put it as GSM and it works like a champ
BUT
i lost the 3G capabilities. One of the reason i purchase Kaiser is because the 3G capability.
using other Kaiser will give me a full 3G capabilities so i start wondering whether this is a hardware issue or software
I have posted this problem in Kaiser Upgrading but got only one reply that didnt work either, so posting here too, as i get very few views there, so assuming such problems are better put here... reposting it here.

Hi all!
My Tilt is having a weird problem, which started all of a sudden on 7th morning.
No matter how muchever i try, the phone radio does not connect to my Mobile Network. It keeps saying "searching....." till eternity.
I was using Dutty's V4 + 1.27.12.32 radio.
All was working fine till today early morning. Around 10 am i try to connect to gprs, and i am not able to, then i do a soft reset, and then i see that my phone cannot connect to my mobile network at all. My mobile network is AIRTEL, in India. The phone keeps saying "searching..." and never stops that and hence now i am not connected to my network.
I have flashed different radio roms since morning - .17, .11, .32 again but no luck. Then i reflashed it with Schaps latest 4.33 rom (wm6), but still no result.
Then i thought maybe my sim is bad, and so i put my wife's Vodafone sim, and that worked! (Vodafone works on a different band than Airtel. this i know coz i have a SonyEricsson Mobile handset 3g-enabled of "3" from australia which works only with Vodafone in India, and not with any other network)
Then i put my sim back and it doesnt work again. While my sim is working perfect in my wife's iPhone.
can someone please help me in this, and tell me what i can do?
i wonder if the phone is somehow network locked or something like that ?
i sure did HARDSPL when i first got the TILT one month back. I have also tried flashing with WM6.1 and its respective radios, but with no success.
Please suggest what can i do to get it back up. Its really strange as its been working perfect till morning 8am.
Thanks a lot guys!
I'd go get a new SIM card and test from there.
did you try checking the phone settings to see if anything there might be the cause of the problem? there is the ability to select/override band selection in the phone settings, along with other things you can try to change.
Thanks to you, Grizzley & Somynex...
1. I did get a new simcard and still its unsuccessful.
2. Yes i tried changing the phone settings for changing the BAND, and there seems to be a problem on one of the bands.
VODAFONE works on the 800 band in india. and AIRTEL works on the other one, which is not working...
any other solutions please???
!BUMP!
Anyone got any idea on this? Please help me guys! please advise me what i can do to get it back...
COuld it be a hardware related problem?
!BUMP!
Please help guys, still looking for a solution for this problem... my fone is lying dead like this!
Hi!
After weeks of flawless function my Xperia can not find my carriers phone network.
I have updated the phone to the new ROM but that does not help.
The phone finds the SIM card and asks for the code.
Strangly it can connect to internet through my carrier (Tele2).
But I can not get a connection to the phone network and make a normal phone call.
Is something wrong with the phone?
NO, cause with another carrier (Telenor) everything works pefect.
Then obviously something is wrong with my carrier (Tele2) or the SIM-card.
NO, cause when I put my Tele2 SIM-card in another device (Ipaq 6515) it works perfect.
The Ipaq is not a 3G-phone. Can that have anything to do with it?
I'm getting lost here, all help is appreciated.
(ORIGINAL MESSAGE
Hi!
After weeks of flawless function my Xperia has started to lose it's phone network.
I notice it after I wake my phone up from stand by mode.
It doesn't help to turn the phone option off and on in Comm manager, but it has sometimes helped turning flight mode on and off.
Other times I had to restart the phone.
This happens a couple of times every day, after long times of not using the phone. I have not been able to trigger this problem, so I don't know what causes it or exactly when it happens.
Strangly it can connect to HDSPA while it has lost the phone network.
I have also experienced som freezes when I'm flipping between the panels to much.
All help is appreciated, thanks.
It would be helpful if you could give us more information.
What ROM are you using
Which carrier you have
etc.

I'm using:
ROM 1.02.936.3
Radioversion 1.06.25.29
The carrier is Swedish Tele2.
In Sweden we have GSM-900 and GSM-1800.
Tele2 also provide me with UMTS and HSDPA.
Today the problem became worse.
Even after repeated soft restarts it refused to find the phone network.
Then I change SIM-card to another carrier and it found the network.
I also tried the SIM-card that's giving me problems in another device. Works fine.
So both SIM-cards works. I'm now gonna go with the new carrier during the day to see if the problem come back.
If anyone have any ideas, please help.

All I can say that Xperia sometimes looks for the signal a bit longer it should IMO,
but I also know that carriers have many many problems usually and they're also often responsible for signal drops in some places too.
I know that 'cos I was talking to my carrier many times about it and learned something about it...
have u tried hard resetting the phone or re-installing the software? ..
if u run the sony update software it will give u the option to re-install your phones software - not sure if that has the same effect as a hard reset ..
probably worth trying

Thanks for answering, I have now done a total reinstall and updated the phone to the newest R2... ROM.
The problem remains.
The phone finds the SIM card and asks for the code.
It can connect to internet through my carrier (Tele2).
But I can not get a connection to the phone network and make a normal phone call.

NO, cause with another carrier (Telenor) everything works pefect.

NO, cause when I put my Tele2 SIM-card in another device (Ipaq 6515) it works perfect.
I'm getting lost here, more ideas is appreciated. Tomorrow I will call Tele2 support.
Have you tried disabling 3G/HSDPA?
Chance that you have very poor 3G on your phone, whilst the IPAC is picking up ok 2G.

Thanks for replying.
I disabled HSDPA/HSUPA in the advanced network menu. But it didn't help.
I also tried to choose GSM only in the phone seetings menue. But I could not even change the setting. Just got an error message about not being able to change the network (or something similar).
Is there any other setting that might be worth trying?

Having worked for several phone companies a few years at customer service I know what the procedure is.
-First thing they do is ask you to do a "crosstest", try your SIM in another phone and see if that works.
-You'll tell them that you did that and everything works fine when you use another phone.
-They'll automatically conclude that there's something wrong with your phone (correctly)
-They'll ask you if you could do a hard reset ( You did that too)
-Then maybe they'll try and reset the network (which almost never works)
Basically they'll have no other choice then for you to return it and have them look at the problem / replace your phone.
I don't think we here can help you with your problem
Good luck and keep us posted
Get a new SIM card. I've seen problems like this before, and an updated SIM card solved it.
The best way would be to test your SIM card in a similar phone, the ipaq not being close because it's not even 3G.

I'm so confused right now.
Got my new sim card today, problem remains.
I call the carrier support and after they've looked the IMEI-number up they say that the phone is barred by an external operator. They won't tell me the reason and by what operator.
So I call the other carriers support and after they've done a IMEI-search they say that the phone is not locked in any way, by them or any other operator. After have been talking to Xperia support they come to the same conclusion. The phone is not locked but agree to that something is wrong, with phone or carriers, and they want me to try with a third carrier.
Final
I've handed in my phone to the seller and got another one back instead.
The end
Exact same problem
Howdy folks,
I have the exact same problem: My Xperia has worked fine for a month. Suddenly I can't register with Tele2 network (tried another Tele2 card as well that didn't work) for calling but have access to data channel so I can surf. Got told by the Tele2 support that my phone was fu**ed up. Got pissed off. Tried a sim for another provider (Telenor) that worked. Called the Tele2 support again. They noticed that I have an old (2g) sim, so they will send a new (3g) card to test if that fixes this mess. It should arrive late this week or early the next. Can't wait...
I'll keep you posted in this thread (or, if I should instead have made a new thread, a moderator may spank me and I will do better).
/Swedish Dave
Nope, new sim-card didn't fix it. But I have found at least one other xperia-user with this problem...
bad GSM signal
I have a X1
rom 1.03.931.10
radio 1.10.25.18
protocol version 52.56.25.29W
and since from the start I have bad GSM signal I have like 1-2 lines onli and it go up to 5line but onli from time to time (and then it drops again to 1-2line or none but If Itray to call is working or I get called but I can berly hear them bicose of the bad signal) on O2 network and in T-mobile is the same no mather wher I'm in town or outside of town; I'm in UK
is the phone damaged?? or...
sry for my bad english
My phone does the same thing
My x1 has had no problem with phone function or network. However, from the last week, the signal began to be lost sometimes, and the machine turned off automatically. and finally today, there is no signal at all.
MY SIM card works with other phones, so, I thought it might be software problem, and hard reseted with new rom. However, still no signal. It keeps looking. Does anyone have the same problem, and hopefully, solution?
I´m using my X1i with Tele2 as my service provider,but i don´t have any problems with signalstrength.. Works just fine..

I know I should've introdouced myself first, and that this is a strange first post, but:
HOLY SMOKES!!!
Xperia has FIVE reception bars????!!!!!
I always thought that 3 is the max value, since it only happened once that it went up to three bars, rest of the time it's maximum 2, usually 1.
I am also on Tele2 carrier, in Sweden that is, and since yesterday, I have no reception AT ALL.
Nothing.
Tried turning off 3G(or whatever it's called), nothing happens.
Tested with 3 other cards (one Tele2, one Telenor, one Telia) - all seem to be working okay. Except that the Tele2 one has slightly lower reception than the others.
Tested with 3 other phones as well - iPhone 3GS, Nokia 5800 Xpress Music, HTC Desire. All of them worked perfectly. Full coverage on that super-fast network thingy(the 3G symbol on iPhone).
Internet is just flowing on other phones - but Xperia is just falling behind in the most important section - reception.
Calls get dropped (2/3 of the calls), I must send same message at least 3 times in order to get it sent, Internet is crappy - if there's any at all.
Any kind of guidance is mostly appreciated.
P.S. A bit of those numbers which seem to be important:
Microsoft Windows MobileR 6.1 Professional
CE-OS 5.2.19608 (Build 19608.1.2.60)
ROM-version: 1.05.936.9
ROM-date: 04/19/09
Radioversion: 1.14.25.55
Protocol version: 1.0.11842.32680
Since all of you seem to have problems with one and the same carrier (Tele2) why don't you simply switch to another one? I once had a problem that was very alike the one described here and after several unsuccessful attempts of the carrier to fix it I simply switched to another one and all my problems were gone.
