Dear friendly XDA-Developer,
Three days back, I tried to upgrade my ASIA IIs radio from 1.02 to 1.12. It all went smoothly, but however, my IIs had been without signal and all it says is No Service. I've tried to search through the forums, but to no avail. Kindly please help... I'm at my wits end.
Thank you all!!!
Not sure were or what files you used, if they were type I or II, so I would just sugesst that you Reflash using the files of wiki.
Hi, thanks! I practically tried all the other radio roms for BA thats available on the ftp://xda-developers, but all give same results... Is it something to do with the radio rom or my phone?
You can't try all roms of the download site for they wont work unless you know what you are doing, (correct rom type ect).
Just make your life easy and go over wiki, download, read and install, its worked for many before you.
Read below this
Dear MDAIIIUser,
Like what you've said, I've read through the wiki BA guide, over and over again. I've followed throught the tutorial carefully and still, it didn't solve my problem.
I've some queries here:-
Firstly, if I use an incompatible radio version, would it affect my XDA IIs? I mean, I've successfully upgraded my CE Rom to 1.40 WWE previously and it worked flawless with cooked 1.40 Ext Rom, however, the moment I upgraded my radio rom, my phone feature cannot be utilised. It just says No Service. I've seen on the forum Asian users using Qtec 1.08 radio rom.
Secondly, my understanding on the Oper and WWE is that by setting them correctly with XDA3tools, I can then upgrade them to my XDA without facing any country code errors or such. But would it affect my XDA functionality?
Lastly, can you make any recommendations on which is the most appropriate CE/Radio ROM version I should use for my XDA IIs based on WWE & O2ASI001?
THanks a millions! Believe me, I've really tried very hard to get my IIs to work and have throughly read through the guide, but to no avail...
I recommend that you just download a FULL, fresh, 1.40 Shipped EXE (I recommend the I-Mate one) and upgrade with it.
Use the first method described here to upgrade.
Dear TheLastOne,
I'll try that now! I'll post the results after that.
Thanks a millions!
I've successfully flashed my XDA IIs with I-Mate shipped exe. All went smoothly, but the same problem persist. No service. I guess I can pronounce my IIs official dead... Sob Sob

Could it be that your device is sim locked or that your sim card is no good?
Dear MDAIIIUser,
I believe that my SIM is not locked as I can make calls using the same SIM with another phone. When I insert my SIM card into my XDA, there wasn't any prompt or indication of my device being locked... Is there another way to verify that?
Thanks!

Hi KHNGAROO... I am not an expers as TLO and MDAUser..but you can give a try downloading the 1.10 radio and downgrading your 1.40 istallation thet contains 1.12 radio to 1.10... I experienced a lot of problems on my device ( low signal or no signal) with the 1.40+1.12 radio combination..and I solved with hios trick..Dont know if can work for you..but maybe you can try..byez
khngaroo
The fact that you have no service would or could indercate that it is beining rejected by your network operator.
Alas, I have no Idea what message you get when a BA is locked to a sim.
(as in the provider has SIM locked your device so that you can only use it with that sim on his network).
The fact that you can use your sim in a different phone proves that the sim is not faulty however that does not verify if the Phone is sim locked.
Thus can you insert a sim from another device that you know that works into your BA and use it.
I have no idea what you had on the phone before you upgraded it nor if it worked, nor if you have also changed your sim so its just a bit hard to work out your probem.
At the moment it could be a locked device or a faulty instaltion of the radio rom.
You might have to go back to your Shipped version to verify if the device still works.
Then upgrade the OS only and check again
Then cook the Extromn to make sure you are not downgrading anything with the new 1.40 OS
Then upgrade the radio to a higher version 1.10 to verify if it works
The upgrade to 1.12 to prove or disprove vicer's very good suggestion.
Have fun
Be careful with the files that you use as you can't use Type I upgrade files to upgrade a Type II rom. Thus you will need to always download the files based on wiki and not reuse the old ones.
Dear MDAIIIUser,
I've flashed my original shipped asian rom back to my device. Got the SD bootable from my pal holding the same phone. Didn't work, still says No Service. I guess either my device is locked or the hardware is screwed.
Is there anything I can do to unlock my SIM on my XDA, should it be my XDA being locked. Or do I really have to bring it down to the service center to get the whole thing fixed?
Thanks a millions for all your help... Appreciated...
You still have not asnswerd the question of the sim. So I still dont know if it is the original sim or if you are using another on on a locked device.
So based on what I do know:
If you flashed the original Rom and have the correct sim and it does not work then your device needs to be sent back to the shop (which will be no problem as you have the original rom in it).
Wiki has a how to unlock (but like I said I dont know if that is your problem)
To all whom had helped me along the way (esp. MDAIIIUser & TheLastOne & vicer)
Brought my XDA IIs to Accord Dist and got it fixed. Now its back. I was told by the customer service operator that they had replaced the whole mainboard altogether. They didn't tell me what was the exact problem. Guess it was the hardware all along. But I was wondering, how on earth can flashing a ROM cause so much damage?
Therefore, here is a warning to those who wish to flash their XDAs, please do so only f you know what exactly you are doing. Please read wiki carefully before you try anything, or you might end up just like me, hee...
Well glad you solved your problem. There are a lot and I mean a lot of people that have been able to falsh thier device via this forum. But as you said you need to read and understand what you are doing.
So what rom do you have now and are you going to keep it?
(Not sure based on your sig)
Dear MDAIIIUser,
Weel, I've upgraded my CE rom to 1.40. However, I've decided to maintain my radio rom as it is (1.02), its kinda like once bitten twice shy. Quite sceptical that my IIs might end up in heaps again, lol.
Thanks again for all your help and concern.
khngaroo, I'm glad all your problems have been fixed. If it is indeed a hardware problem, then you should not hesitate to upgrade your rom.
(Besides, if the problem returns, you know they'll fix it )

Dear TheLastOne,
I took your word for it and gave it another shot! Followed all the instructions found at WIKI and presto, it worked and now my IIs is running on 1.40 CE and 1.12 Radio.
Many, many, thanks to all of you who had helped along the way!
khngaroo
Great, Happy for you.
The 1.40 rom has a few issues that can be found on the wiki Upgrade page that you need to be aware of.
Hi All
I have a SPV M2000.One day the phone stopped working. Everything was all right, it did ask for pin but then didn't even looked for network,was immediately saying NO SERVICE. I tried few sim cards - the same.
So then I wanted to reinstall the ROM, I downloaded the official from Orange UK , tried to install it,and it shows ERROR 114, Radio Rom Upgrade Error.
And the phone now is in bootloader mode and I can't do anything!
I downloaded different ROM from xda-developers ,at the beggining with a country error, but i managed to fix it and now with this ROM it's the same thing. ERROR 114. I tried everything, hard,soft reset, Pc reset etc. Nothing works!PPC still in bootloader mode!
Please tell me if you know what else can I try!
Guys,come on,really noone knows???
Have you read WIKI? Follow the first method to flash your ROM. Have you remembered to plug in your power supply to your cradle when you flash your device?
Heres another thread on NO SERVICE Plz help... No Service after radio upgrade. Happened to me. Read it and see the advise by MDAIIIUser and TheLastOne. If all else fails, bring it to the shop.
I had a very similar problem....
First I tried to update a whole package that means rom, extended rom and radio
The radio update is always the first one and there always upgrade error 114 occured.
So I updated every part seperately and it works except the radio. So I tried alot but it just didn't work..even downgrading was impossible. MDAIIIuser and happy goat tried to help me as well as they could but nothing had an effect.
So I read in another forum that asus mainboards have some problemes with these radio updates....I thought they were joking...but I tried the radio pdate at another pc and it worked!
I know it sounds a bit stupid but I was desperate and at last it worked!
You can read it here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=89657#89657
TRied that method.Doesn't work
Any other ideas?
One more thing.Is it normal that in bootloader mode when I plug the power cable in the charging LED is not working?it was working before.
The battery is charged ,but shouldn't it show that the power is connected anyway?
EDIT: this is a reply to the first answer.
So you think I should try on another PC?I will today!Hopefully it will work.
So I managed to install new rom on a different computer! I think that there was a problem with active sync.I used the one that was installed from my old XDAII.Could that be the reason?Now i installed the one provided with a M2000.
But it doesn't work anyway
Still NO SERVICE message.
ANy other ideas different than taking it to Orange?
Hi rottie,
No Service could mean anything. Could your SIM card be faulty? Device SIM locked? Or hardware faulty? You cannot just use any ROMs you find at ftp. Try to flash your device with full shipped rom at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade. Use the first method and upgrade using MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to bypass the Country code error. Remember that you'd need to run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice.
Read wiki carefully, it has alot of precious information. Cheers ^^
Before you update any version you should be sure that your radio is
compatible with your device. Usually all radio upgrades should be
independent off the language of the device but as I understood (could be
wrong) there are differences because of the servicenetwork frequency.
So you must be sure that the chosen radio is compatible and that your
device is not simlocked.
So perhabs you should chose an upgrade of your provider.
But perhabs itis better not to risk your guarantee of your provider by
using updates or components of other providers! Because there could be
the possibility that your device is damaged and you should bring it back!
Good luck!
Guys, you get me wrong.I'm not trying anything what I'll find.
1)One of the ROMs that I tried and the one that I left now is a ROM downloaded from orange.co.uk for SPV M2000. So there can't be any incompatibility, don't you think?
2)I have 2 sim cards,both from Orange,I was using both of them before in my M2000 which is sold only through Orange so there can't be any simlock problem,don't you think?
3)I used only that orange ROM, original and the I-Mate one.None of them were working good,always NO SERVICE.
I bought the phone second hand,with box,all accessories etc. But I don't have a receipt :? And of course have lost the guy's number.That's why I want to try everything before going to the service.
I think this phone is network blocked, probably been reported damaged or stolen, once the insurance or replacement is issued a block is put on the imei of the phone that was subject to claim.
Hello everybody
Yesterday I tried to use "lokiwiz - HTC Wizard Unlocker v0.2b" for my new T-mobile MDA Vario because otherwise I was not able to upgrade the ROM from 1.6.2.2 to the latest one. But.. in the end I got a problem. To be honest this problem was appearing periodically before unlocking/upgrading but now it presents permanently. I simply can not dial any phone number. The systems responds as: "SIM card is not installed or invalid" (something like that from translation from Dutch into English, originally: "SIM-kaart ontbreekt of ongeldig").
I already tried to use this SIM in my previous phone (SE T630) and it still works perfectly. I can dial numbers, I can SMS, whatever. But in my new T-mobile MDA Vario this SIM card just does not admit dialing the phone numbers.
Does anybody have any thoughts, what it might be?
Thank you very much in advance!!!
P.S. Honestly, in case of warranty during unlocking process I kept my SIM card out off the MDA.
Just for info...
When I bought MDA the version of ROM was 1.6.2.2 NLD
After upgrading I got ROM 2.21.2.5 NLD and ExtROM 2.21.2.108
As I see now it connected to T-mobile network but still can't dial any number, reporting of the possible problems with SIM card. In the same time this SIM card is working with no any problems in my T630.
This is a very strange problem indeed. When you turn your device on or soft reset, does the device ask for a PIN code for the phone? If it asks for a PIN code and it accepts that code and starts searching for a signal, that means that the device can read the SIM card. It is very strange that when you have a signal, the device cannot make call. Either it should not be able to compare your PIN code to the one on your SIM and give an error message, or if it accepts your PIN code, you should be able to make calls. Perhaps there is a hardware problem with your SIM slot that makes the device unable to read the info on your card? Since it works in your other phone, the SIM does not seem to be the problem. You can try flashing another ROM on it to test if the device works with that ROM. If that does not work as well, flash back to an original T-Mobile NL ROM and call T-Mobile for your warranty.
When it is loaded it shows up the Telefoon screen with the following message: "Ongeldige of ontbrekende SIM-kaart. U kunt nog wel alarmnummers bellen, als uw seviceprovider dit ondersteunt." If I type numbers it show stars, like I would enter the password. Why stars? I already tried to input my unlocking code but it didn't help, as looks like it expects something else that this. I may just press Annuleren and continue working with other available functions of MDA but still may not use the phone.
Could you please share the info how to downgrade back to 1.6 ROM?
Thank you very much for your response!
Ok, this indicates that your device cannot read your SIM card. The screen you get on start-up is the screen where you normally enter your PIN code, if the device can read your SIM Card. That is why you see only stars when you enter a number there. Seems to me that your device cannot read your SIM Card and therefore cannot compare the PIN you enter to the one on your SIM card. You should not be able to get a signal from T-Mobile, since your phone cannot read the SIM and cannot register with the network. This can be caused by three problems: either your SIM card slot is broken, or your ROM is faulty (try flashing it to another ROm first, for instance a Qtek ROM from the ftp server, there are many ROMs available there) or the SIM card is defective ( seems not to be the case here, since it still works in your other phone).
I recommend that you first try another ROM on your phone, e.g. a Qtek ROM. If the problem goes away then, just keep the Qtek ROM or try flashing the T-Mobile ROM again. If that does not help, flash the latest T-Mobile ROM (from their website) to your device and claim your warranty for a broken sim slot.
As far as I know it is not possible to downgrade to the 1.6 ROM, it is a non-AKU ROM and cannot override an AKU ROM. Perhaps someone can correct me, since I am not a 100% sure of this. You do not need the 1.6 ROM at all, if the Qtek ROM does not work, just flash the latest T-Mobile ROM to your device and claim warranty. Since you then have an official T-Mobile ROM on your device, warranty should not be a problem.
Would be that a problem to flash latest T-mobile upgrade back from Qtek? I need to know it just in case I would not be able to do that. Cause otherwise, sorry, but im ****ed up in front of warranty office..
It should not be a problem to flash the T-Mobile ROM over a Qtek ROM. You can first try a hard-reset to see if that solves your problem. You can also call T-Mobile Klantenservice and tell them your problem. Tell them you want to use a Qtek ROm to figure out the problem and ask them permission to do so. They are known to give permission for such actions if that can save them from repairing your device. Be sure they make a note in your file stating that they give you permission, that makes your case stronger if there is a problem with your warranty later on. Good luck!
Do you think it's illegal installing even T-mobile NL ROM updates by myself, i.e. not asking T-mobile to do so?
Like I said the previous version of my ROM was 1.6.2.2. Then I actually tried to flash the latest UK version (2.21.2.5). The network signal was actually appearing from time-to-time but then it just died. Then I tried to install the latest NL version (2.21.2.5NLD) to check whether the signal would appear. But it didn't help.
Installing official T-Mobile updates is not illegal. T-Mobile NL made the upgrade available on their site. These updates are meant to be carried out by the users themselves, therefore the file and instructions are placed on their site. For other brands ( Nokia, SE) these updates cannot be done by the users themselves, but Windows Mobile updates are meant to be done by you, thereby saving T-Mobile the costs of performing the upgrades for you. So if an official T-Mobile ROM is on your device, they can never deny you your warranty. You can try to replace the radio Rom only (there is a thread on this) to see if that helps, but I recommend flashing an official T-Mobile NL ROM on your device and claim your warranty. Since you have tried different ROMs, the problem obviously resides in the hardware. If a hard-reset does not help, use the lokiwiz application to sim and cid lock your device again and T-Mobile will not be able to see that you had unlocked it. Just mention that you tried a hard reset and that you tried upgrading to the latest official T-Mobile ROM and they will have to honour your warranty.
Re: T-mobile NL: problems with dialing after unlocking &
First of all to my knowledge T-Mobile MDA Vario in NL is SIMlocked and CID locked . If you want to know the difference I advise you to search in the xda-forum or google it.
Here are a few comments from my experience of upgrading and unlocking my MDA Vario.
( BTW I have T-Mobile MDA Vario initially with 1.6 ROM and SIM& CID lock -first upgraded to 2.21.2.5 then unlocked with lokiwizard3a !! )

I disagree with this, upgrading should not require you to unlock your device unless you upgrade to a None-T-Mobile ROM. If this was your main target ( only the Tmobile upgrade ) you shoudn;t have messed with the unlock stuff

I am a bit puzzled you state that the device was not behaving well before you started tweaking. Why did you not go to the Tmobile shop? OK you like the challenge ? Anyway it does look like a Hardware issue to start with.

OK what have you tried else?
The suggestion of trying a QTEK ROM shold be blocked by your CID lock. I you remove the CID lock ( which is possible but not legal ) your warranty is at risk. Tmobile may claim you messed up your device ...
Therefor What I did is only take the SIM lock out. Lokiwizard 2(a/b) did not work for my upgraded MDA so I looked around a bit and found that there is a newer version 3a. That one worked for me on the Tmobile 2.21.2.5 ROM. I did not use or try the QTEK rom since the Tmobile rom allows my warranty to be safe and is newer ( and stable afaik) then the QTEK rom .
I also have found there are updater that do not check your version number of NBF file because you officially can not downgrade the 2.21.2.5 so there is a way back should you need to. Though I personally did not verify this . I mailed with a person here at XDA forum who did it with success.
I would propose to play dummy when approaching Tmobile and not ask to go to QTEK rom and tryin to be the smartass.
Try to downgrade and go for warranty - thats what I would do..
Hi, I've updated my Trinity with this ROM.
All works fine, except that it doesn't work with my SIM card.
When I insert the SIM card, I got a message and the Network Wizard:"Your current operator (23433) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor.
Would you like to select another network provider?
Basically I can't connect to the network and the network wizard gave me only asian and australian operator I can choose from, but I'm on Orange and in UK!!
Please let me know what's wrong!
Cheers
You sure it doesn't work when you wait a while? It should work telephony-wise, but the data settings you have to change manually...
just doesn't accept Orange SIM cards..
Can't understand why...maybe has a lock when you insert an Orange SIM?
Orange simcards
Hi gioazz,
I bought an m700 from you on ebay ( dezlatics )and have found it to work great, but I am eager to use the GPS option with it.
But just a quick note on your issue....
I have now installed an Orange 3g Pay as you go simcard with no problems.
However, I did originally buy a simcard and have problems connecting to the internet. I rang Orange customer services and they told me that the simcard was only a 2G simcard and that it was not compatible with the m700. So I then bought a 3G simcard and everything is sorted.
So perhaps you are trying to use a 2G card and not a 3G card??
Could you possibly send me any info on the GPS rom update that you have installed and tell me how to check if my m700 is locked or unlocked.
Cheers mate!
My Sim Card is 3G but it doesn't work with any Orange SIM...I think that this is simply a faulty phone.
As for the GPS ROM, just download the ROM from the FTP it works great, and if your already works with an Orange SIM I think it will still working.
I've tried to revert to an old ROM and the nproblem is still there so I think is just the phone.
It does works with any other phone SIM so far,so I think is simply an Orange lock on this device...
'FTP' - What is this?
Thanks for your reply gioazz,
But because I am a bit of a newbie on this site, could you tell me what the 'ftp' is please. Where I can look for the ROM update.
My apologies if this is such a stupid question!

First of all - great username!
Second of all, ftp (file transfer protocol) is where you are going to find the stockpile of roms and other files the esteemed members of this forum have compiled from around the world. Here's a link to the trinity rom page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades
Good luck with the update...I see in another post of yours you already CID unlocked your phone.
How Do I Know If My Device Is Unlocked?
Thanks for your reply PSARGENT,
Yes I unlocked my Trinity with the IMEI unlocking service, it cost me £20.00 but I think it will be worth it in the long run.
But how can I test that my device is unlocked and will stay unlocked even after I upgrade using the GPS ROM update?
Is there a quick to tell, or do I have to try and install software that is not digitally signed to find out, Also, I do not have any other carriers simcards to try in my Trinity either.
Cheers!
Still no sign of the Official GPS ROM Update from HTC!!!
Sorry for the double posting!!
I did not read your reply to my post in the other Trinity section of the site, my apologies psargent!

Do Hardreset,
After you finish the initial phase, do hard reset before it installs the DOPOD software (the 3 seconds countdown) and your sim will work fine.

Firstly...I'm with 3 in Australia
Ok, bought a TYTN II off ebay some months ago now from a Hong Kong dealer (that'll learn me) and it seems to not work with the 3G network here in Australia. The phone is always EDGE roaming and whenever it switches to 3G I can't send or receive SMS messages.
I've done some reading around and found that maybe I need to flash the ROM of the phone to an Australian one so that the phone will work properly. I found a thread on Whirlpool and someone there posted a link to this ROM for another user:
www.mediafire.com/?0jt1cwyx61g
Is that the ROM I want? If so, how do I go about flashing my phone with this ROM to make it work?
Can anyone help me??
You're more than likely having issues with the radio that came with the phone. Go to the ROM development forum, read how to unlock, install HardSPL, etc.. and then choose either one of the ROMs that come with a new radio available: NATF, Hyperdragon, Dutty's, etc... or look at one of the threads that show how to install a new radio. I'm not going to make any ROM recommendations, because it's really a matter of personal taste and how the ROM feels to you. For me personally, I've settled on T.i.R vk8 WWE build 19971. And I have radio version 1.58.25.17.
Hey dude,
congrats on the kick-ass new phone.
To help you with your prob, you'll have to signup and login to HTC E-Club for Australia, then download and flash the latest 3 ROM. Its the only way to ensure you have the correct inbuilt three network settings, there was a cab floating around a while back but it didn't include planet3 connectivity - only mobile internet.
look for this one :
HTC TyTN II WM6.1 ROM code for Hutchison ‘3’ Network customers
ROM version: 3.29.861.0
ROM date: 05/15/08
Radio version: 1.65.16.25
Protocol version: 25.83.40.02H
Date: 2008-06-02 Category: ROM Upgrade
I found the ROM development page and the list of radios that relate to the specific ROM's match the ones I already have (note: I already flashed my phone using the one in the link I provided in my first post).
I went and registered for HTC E-Club and went to download the WM6.1 ROM u mentioned Sanchez and when I entered the Serial Number it says the ROM is unsuitable for my phone. Is this because it is NOT an Australian phone?
Would this ROM actually work on my phone and would I be able to get a copy of it from somewhere else?
yeah, its not the actual ROM so much as the stuff Three bundle within that you need.
I'm aka Dr.Nerdlinger on whirlpool, a guy I recommended this to didn't have any problems, seemed to make his US Tilt into an Aussie Three TyTnII.. Havent tried it myself as Im already three branded.

I have the latst official shipped TyTnII 3 ROM (WM 6.1) for Australia.
ie:
TyTN II_AUS Hutch_WM6.1_Upgrade_20080602 (may 2008)
Can't recall where I found it. I am fairly certain it was on this site
If you cannot find it through searchLet me know if you still need it.

This is the same one I used (3.29.861.0) and nothing seems to have changed, still doesnt register on 3G network

Damn! Sorry...
The ROM I posted the link to doesn't ask me for a "serial" when I've flashed it..
I assume you have run the Connection Setup wizard (Settings > Connections > Connection Setup?
Have you tried to manually enter 3's settings?
Perhaps flash the latest Hyperdragon III http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397121
It has a suitable radio for Australia and I flashed this recently on a TyTn II purchased in Malaysia and all worked fine (as did the ROM I referred to earlier)
Ok but to flash to that (being a cooked ROM) dont I have to do something before I can flash to that? Is it HardSPL I have to install or something like that?
Yes... Unlock and flash a hard spl...
It is quite easy
Excellent directions here:

I am in no way an expert with these devices but I have had no problem that hasn't been quickly resolved.
perhaps unlocking the phone may resolve your problem with flashing the 3 shipped ROM.... (again, no expert here)
Ok seems this is not gonna work. I've done some reading and apparently the board it to blame for my phone not working properly. Since it was an eBay job (but from a company) I can still get warranty but I have to send overseas to HK.
What do people think, I can buy a new TytnII for $659 and when the old one comes back from warranty I can sell it. Would the new one (if I bought from Australian store) work on 3G?
Unless it's faulty hardware, it shouldn't need a return. Don't spend your cash just yet
Try this new official 3.34.721.2 WWE HTC rom, with 1.70 radio.
Download it, plug your activesync cable in, run the exe file you downloaded - after 20 mins or so, you should have the latest ROM, with built in Aus Three Network detection (assuming you have a legal 3 sim-card)
(ps. it may seem like its stalled while flashing, but just give it time)
Report back if successful
Downloaded and installed last night - doesnt seem to have made any difference
sigh...

After Flashing a ROM you should always hard reset the device as well. After all this is done, what versions of the following are showing as being installed: ROM, Radio, SPL (can find the last one in the tri colour boot screen - read the wiki if you need to know how to get to the boot screen)? If all of this is showing correctly and you're still having problems then it's probably something like the sim (just any old sim won't do and it needs to be compatible with the phone). You could try another if you have a spare. When you switched it on, after a minute or so did you get a message popping up asking if you wanted to automatically configure the phone for your networks settings?
