Hi guys.
I just bought my XDA Diamond and updated it to the new official o2 Firmware version 1.93 something.
Unfortunately my XDA doesn't run as smoothly as it did before. From time to time multiple errors occur at the same time. First of all it's hard to make a call - the phone can't establish a connection. If I'm lucky and the phone establishes a connection I can't hear my dialog partner and they can't hear me. Furthermore the ring tones don't work (I can't hear them, the phone only vibrates) and if I get a text message I can't hear the text alarm but the phone keeps vibrating until I change the profile to silent.
The only way to solve these problems was to switch off the phone and switch it back on. The errors occur at random times, I can't predict them. I can send text messages while these errors occur but calling is impossible
I was in an o2 shop and asked the personnel there what the heck's wrong but they only told me "switch it off and back on".
I assume there's something wrong with the software since all the errors occur at the same time. Otherwise there could be a hardware defect. Because of that I'm afraid to load a cooked rom - warranty and jazz.
Has anyone experienced something similar and/or is there someone who can help? It's really annoying to never know if I can call someone/someone can call me.
Kind regards,
Martin
got exactly the same problem .. when i got the diamond i started "optimizing" it with tools like advanced config. after playing around with cache settings it occured for the first time so i thought it might be a memory leak. then i made a hardware reset and applied the newest official O2 rom. problem is still there randomly, so its a hardware issue most likely. strange thing that u got it when updating the rom. maybe there wasnt enough time for it to appear before ?!?
i checked google and there have been similar issues with older htc devices. some stated it might be a shortcut with the headsetfunction. unfortunately it seems to be very rare, so theres no official statement in faqs etc. will have to send it back and hope that i get a working one.
ps : do not mess around with the warranty. just send it back.
Thanks for your quick reply.
The guys at the o2 shop told me that it's a software defect (the guy I talked to said he's got the same problem) and that they can't help me.
I will definitely go back there and force them to replace it. The randomness of the error is the most annoying thing. One minute it works the next it doesn't. It's impossible to use the XDA as a phone at the moment.
I've never had any problems with my last six cells. I'm pretty disappointed with the Diamond
PS: Does anyone else have an opinion on the topic? Maybe a solution, hint, help in any way?
I highly appreciate any response.
Sincerely,
Martin
denk dran dass du als onlinekunde bei 02 anrufen und es selbst zurückschicken musst. die antwort hab ich bekommen als ich im shop stand.
Hi Martin,
did you try to re-flash the diamond again? Maybe something went wrong by flashing the 1.93 ROM. Had the same problem with a ROM from here, but I don't remember which one it was.
So, try re-flashing. The O2 1.93 went well on my diamond.
Kind regards,
Volker
Can you confirm where you obtained the official O2 rom from.

No, I didn't reflash the device. Can I flash it again with the official Rom without doing something? Kind of override the ROM with the same ROM?
I got the ROM from the o2 website o2online.de

Yes, no problem. However, first download the update file once more. If you can, try another browser / download manager, just to be sure there is no transmission problem.
If that doesn't work, try flashing the "old" firmware, if the problems don't persist, it's no hardware problem for sure. Then try another GER 1.93 ROM from the developers.
I did a re-flash of the original ROM. Haven't experienced the headphone/microphone problem again yet, but I often lose the connection after I answer incoming calls. The network symbols in the top line (3G or G and the network symbol) show a "X" and network plus an "!". After that it reconnects and I can call back.
What the heck is wrong? This is so annoying!
edit: strangely there was no ring tone when I answered the incoming call.
Hi folks.
In addition to my other problems a new one occurred. (Almost) every time I get an incoming call my phone looses the network, causing the call to end. Strangely, the phone shuts itself down from time to time while I'm answering incoming calls.
I went to o2 and they have the phone sent and repaired. As soon as I get it back I will tell you what was broken and or done to fix it.
Maybe someone here will experience a similar deterioration of their Diamond - but hopefully not!
Kind regards,
Martin
Meh, I've been a diamond user for a couple of months now and as of this week I'm getting these problems as well... Got into an argument with my girlfriend because of me not hearing when I'm being called. I don't have a mobile phone for nothing I want to be able to receive calls damnit!!!
It doesn't ring and/or vibrate often, and switches to 'silent' mode. At first I thought it was because of a soft reset I did recently, but then it also happened when I didn't reset it
Also, sometimes the 'phone application' (i.e. the dialer) doesn't come up when I'm making a call or receive one. So I can't answer the call.
I have original ROM (1.93 Dutch) that came with my phone. I did some tweaking though and I use S2U2, but they worked fine before...
I'm seriously considering going to T-Mobile and ask for an Omnia or something. Heck, I'd even pay for an iPhone...
Hello, After flashing a few roms I have this problem that my phone is not sending out any text messages anymore. Sometimes it works, but most of the time I get back an error message that says "SMS could not be sent"
Anyone have similar problems? is it the ROM or is it the Radio, what is it ?
Kind Regards
Btw. I tried searching for the problem here and on google but its hard to find anything on it because it has such common words in it (not be sent etc.)
thanks
what is your reception like? triede the same SIM in another phone? Or the same phone with another SIM?
will try.. than x
i had those problems with an old itje custom rom. ever since newer roms ive not run into it
Hi all,
This has happened twice now, the first thing I know about it is when someone phones me and says "did you not get my text?"
I then proceed to send myself a text and nothing happens!
I have tried flashing new roms, different radio and still the missing texts to not arrive.
To get them to arrive I have to stick my sim into my partners nokia, one I get the missing texts my phone them works properly and I can receive all texts.
Has anyone heard of this before?
I'm on o2
When I receive a text. It doesn't show up but there is a new blank message from 5556. What's that about? Anyone else having this issue? I have not begun troubleshooting.

Itz the mac user trying to hack youu
solution: turn off bluetooth
It can be also that when you first time boot to cm it activated your 3g, maybe it is sign of it.
I am experiencing this now too. But I'm on a Samsung Captivate. Rooted, but no custom ROM or anything.
I've also come across one other person experiencing it on an HTC Desire:

Hopefully someone has an idea.
"Blackbook" app was causing this issue.. Uninstall it!
Hello all,
I'm experiencing a weird issue with my Nexus 6 running Chroma – 06/05/2015 on stock kernel with MPZ44Q radio.
Every time I receive a call or make a call, I and the person on the other end of the line hear a few beeps, almost like a fax line connecting. Its not like a singular beep on my end, letting me know the call was connected...
Has anyone experienced this?
I put this question here because I don't know if its rom specific, radio specific, phone specific or what. I didn't stay stock long enough to see if this happened before rooting, unlocking bootloader and flashing a different rom. I do know that I recently updated my radio to the M beta (as mentioned up top) and the issue carried over.
