GPS is not active after upgrading ROM & Radio - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi,
After upgrading ROM & Radio, my GPS data is not active any more. I tried to use 2 tools to test it but still there is no valid data...
1. GPS Test Version 1.04
2. HTC GPS Tool
The current ROM and Radio version:
Rom version: 1.93.405.1 WWE
Operator Version: SwiftBL Diamond v7.5 Full
ROM date: 10/05/2008
Radio version: 1.00.25.05
Protocol version: 52.29.25.12H
Did anyone also experience the same problem after upgrading ROM and/or Radio? if yes, how could you make your GPS data active again?
Thanks in advance.

New and confused with my Blue Angel

You'll all have to excuse me if I appear a little confused.... I've only had my Blue Angel a few days and already it is driving me up th wall. I be going through the message boards day after day and now I'm unsure which way to turn with it. Configuration of my unit is as follows:
Orange SPV M2000 - Unlocked, I use both Orange and O2 sims in it.
Operator version: 5.31.1.124
ROM version: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM date: 12/13/04
Radio version: 1.06.02
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtRom version 1.31.124 WWE
Bluetooth version: 1.0.0 Build 3500
Windows Mobile 2003 SE: 4.21.1088
So far its faults seem to be
1. Not compatible with my Bluetooth car kit (nokia CK 7W).
2. Occasionally people are telling me that I sound really distant when making calls (when using it as a phone, e.g with to my ear - I don't do wired ear pieces)
Could anyone please recommend the upgrades I should be looking to use? By upgrading roms etc will a loose its unlocked ablity?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
You can use the latest rom upgrades that are available i.e 1.40 Rom version. After upgarding the rom ur device will not be locked once unlocked it remains unlocked. all the blueetooth and other issues would be resolved after the rom upgrade.
The complete details of the latest rom are as follows:
ROM Version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM Date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.147
for the rom link u can have a look in the forum there are a couple of updates availble from different opereators.
cheers
jeet
Thanks for that, I've upgraded it using the imate PD2k 1.40 rom set. The unit seems to be functioning better already and it has got rid of some of the rubbish Orange had installed on it.
Now at:
ROM version: 1.40 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radion Version: 1.12.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
Bluetooth version 1.0.0 Build 3900
Windows Mobile 2003SE Version 4.21.1088 (build 15045.2.6.0)
Guess I'll just have to see how this performs........
Had fun trying to upgrade it, country ID error thing kept coming up but got there in the end using the advice from this site. I guess that must be something to do with my phone being unlocked? The only info the device data utility gave me was:
PH20B 0 B WWE E
Any way thanks agin for your help

Nope, I guess it was because you actually read the Wiki pages and the advice on this forum
Fair point.......... It's all there if you read in to it

Xda IIs - Radio gone?

Hi All,
I've recently done an upgrade on my Xda IIs.
Everything appeared to be okay, I initially had an Activesync issue which I resolved, but initially I've been happy with it.
I happily installed my Tomtom software and got the Bluetooth working and used it on a journey last night.
I switched the unit off overnight as the battery was really realy low. I charged it up earlier and although the OS is fine there's no phone working.
It says:-
Unknown SIM status
Only emergency calls can be made without a PIN.
Under Device Information I have:-
ROM version: 5.03.02 WWE
ROM date: 03/02/05
Radio version: NONE
Protocol version: NONE
ExtROM version:
I assume the radio version being missing so 2 questions.
1) Why would is disappear
2) What the best way of replacing it and what version should I use?
Thanks in advance.
P.s The phone was working after the upgrade.
.... continued
Okay I've upgraded the radio rom and the phone is now working.
I'm now showing.
ROM version: 5.03.02 WWE
ROM date: 03/02/05
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version: 1337.42
ExtROM version:
but as a test I removed the battery and replaced it.... sure enough the radio rom has been lost again and I'm back to.
ROM version: 5.03.02 WWE
ROM date: 03/02/05
Radio version: NONE
Protocol version: NONE
ExtROM version:
BUT..... If I press the soft reset button the radio comes back.... So for example.... I replace the battery, switch on and then press soft reset to have everything working.
This is not really a biggie for me but is it a known issue?
I'm currently looking through the HUGE BlueAngel WM2005 problems resolution so maybe it's in there somewhere.....

Errr.... Not quite sure what you mean by this. Can you explain please?
It IS a known problem. Which ROM are you using? It happened regularly with me on the original WM5 ROM, but I haven't tried the ported ones.

n00b just got a PH20B: benefits of updating the ROM?

Hey all, I just got given a PH20B (blue angel) from a friend. It's the "i-mate PDA2k". He won it in a contest, it was unlocked when he got it. I use T-Mobile so I put my sim card in it and it works okay with T-Mo's GPRS service.
What's the benefit of updating the ROMs? Will it fix my skype problem: when i use skype i'm connected using wifi but it says i'm not, and insists on connecting with GPRS (which is too slow for VOIP). The wifi connection is fine, i can browse pages etc.
What will i get with the newer radio ROM, newer ROMs, etc?
Here's my current devicedata.txt stuff:
Model: PH20B
Language code: WWE
Operator code: CDL__001
ROM version: 1.12.22
Extended ROM version: 1.12.169
Radio version: 1.02.00
I can download this official ROM straight from i-mate, is it better/worse than what i could get from this site?
For the Worldwide English Build:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.12.00
Protocol version 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
Thanks.
1.40 is definitely better than the ROM you have. Go for it.
EDIT: the latest release ROM is 1.42 (hint: read wiki) which is better than the released ROM from Imate (plenty of bugs fix, newer application version etc)
If you are using it on T-Mobile I would suggest using the 1.42 ROM from T-Mobile NL, I have been using it for months now and it works great!!!

This was a TYTN 2 ROM upgrade released by HTC sometime in Feb this year..it had a lot of GPS issues...
so you're saying...
...it's not advisable to install this upgrade? This "GPS issue" sounds an awful lot like the "GPS issue" with WM6.1. Could it be that this problem has been incorrectly diagnosed as a WM6.1 problem when in fact it's the ROM upgrade that's to fault?

They kind of go hand in hand.. You don't get WM6.1 without an updated radio, but evidence suggests that it's not specifically WM 6.1 that has GPS problems, that is is the radio. Some radios are "okay" with GPS, although in my personal (very limited) experience, going from my stock Tilt ROM/Radio to what's in my sig my GPS takes longer and is weaker (HDOP drops VERY slowly once it's locked, and rarely gets below 2-3 when before it was always below 2). But it works. It's slower, but it works.
There are better folks than you or I to speculate on GPS problems, there's several threads on it, just thought I'd mention that.
