Sim Not Detected after Upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5 - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Dear All
I have read as many threads as possible in 2-3 hours but was not able to find the solution of my problem Here is what I Did
I wanted Windows Mobile 6.5 on My phone so i downloaded Hard SPL 3.56 & RevRom V8. I flashed hard spl & rom as instructed in post by experienced users.
Everything went fine and Windows 6.5 started working correctly. Then I shut of the phone and Inserted my Sim Card & Memory Card. The Memory Card was detected but the sim card was not detected. So I started reading the guides again & found that Hard SPL 3.56 is for ATT Roms only. So I downloaded the 3.29 Hard SPL and flashed it. With this my sim card was detected but after two minutes it again showed sim card missing. I again restarted the phone and sim card again worked for about two minutes. Then I thought may be its a radio problem so flashed a New Radio which is 1.70.19.09. But to no effect. I also tried another WM 6.5 Rom, this rom again did not detect my sim completely.
By now it was 6.00 in the morning, I desperately needed my phone to work as I am handicapped without it in office. So I read the post about reverting to original rom & spl and downloaded the HTC Hard Spl 1.56 file available, because i did not had the time to go for extraction and all. Then I flashed it and a Shipped Hong Kong WWE Rom 3.34.721.2 with Radio 1.70.19.09. But still my sim was not detected now I really got frustrated and just began to restart my phone I did this approx 3-4 times and suddenly the sim was detected and phone began to work fine. I checked it for about an Hour it was working fine. So I went for a Bath and when I came back the phone was agan showing Sim Card Missing. This time I took my sim card out again and pressed the metal strip that holds the sim card towards the pin very hard and inserted my card again. The sim was detected and the phone working fine while I am writing this post(approx 3 Hours of Working).
Guys Please guide whats could be the problem with my phone and what DID I do wrong. Can my mistake be corrected or have I made a Huge Blunder.

It looks like hardware issue that the contact got loosen up somewhat. What you did (pressing the metal) should help. Other might insert few layers of paper on top of the SIM to make it 'pressed' towards the contact better.
And this thread should not be on ROM development, but on the Kaiser General (mod might want to move this).
Another possibility is: did you do a HR after flashing the ROM? And flash OEM before flashing customer? Once you reverted back to stock ROM, you should do another HR.

I did the Hard Resets all the time as it was mentioned in the guides I followed the guides completely.
Guys Please also suggest which Hard SPL is best for WM 6.5 Rom 3.29 or 3.34.

Both should work. Ask your chef

Unable to get into Bootloader mode after installing HardSPL

Hi guys,
Please forgive me for asking the question, I've spent the last two hours searching for someone with a similar issue and can't find anything.
Basically I'm wanting to sim unlock my UK Orange TyTn II (Kaiser). I've read through the unlock thread and know that I need to install HardSPL. I've installed v1 - it all goes through fine but I don't seem to be able to get into bootloader mode.
I've flashed the radio image as per step 5 (step 1 folder) and this went through okay and changed the radio image. I reflashed it to 1.27.12.17 and during the flash process where it takes the phone into bootloader mode as part of the ROM update utility I could see it said SPL-1.0.OliPoF on the 2nd line of the bootloader (which means HardSPL is installed doesn't it?)
No matter what combination of buttons I've tried - holding the camera button firmly, holding the camera and power button and reset I just can't get the thing to go into bootloader mode using either a soft reset or from a clean power on. I've tried it with and without sim card and sd card to no avail.
My original rom versions were:
r 1.27.12.29
g 22.45.88.07h
d 1.81.00.00
Obviously the radio version is now different but the other two remain the same.
I'm confident that HardSPL is installed, I just can't get to the bootloader!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Oh dear.
I've just put my orange sim card back in and I'm still getting the network locked please input unlock code that I got with the "strange" sim card even when I've overwritten the radio rom with a newer version.
Balls
--update--
Tried another radio version and still it says network locked with original orange sim card, so I've got no choice but to try to get the bootloader thing sorted as I can't use my original sim now. Ever wish you'd not started something?
--update--
Paid £20 to IMEI-Check.
--final update--
Updated to Dutty's latest ROM, everything is fine, still unable to make the phone go into bootloader mode so no idea whats going on there. HardSPL is definately installed. This new ROM is so much nicer than the orange factory setup.
Serves me right for being stupid
the same here but with hermes.. from SPL 1.09 tried to install hardSPL v7, done it NOT in bootloader mode, processed to 'finished' page, WM is working, but can't get to bootloader anyhow.. installed drifferent ROM, succeeded, but can't get to bootloader either.. any ideas what is going on??

Can't make phone call or recive it after upgrade ROM

Hello to all,
I have big problem with my BA GSM... I have done a lot of research but I can't solve my problem...
I have upgraded my BA (SPV M2000 ORANGE UK) from win 2003 SE to Win 6.1, Win 6.5 Win 5... But in all ROM versions I don't have a possibility to make or receive call... Phone is on automatic search for network and always founds my home network, but when I'm supposed to receive a call, network is going down (just loose it). When I want to make call same thing happens. When I switch to manual searching for network I get this message: "Cannot read settings from the network. Try viewing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again"
I have tried to change radio ROM to every version you have on forum (right now I am on last 1.15), but still same problem.
When I was on the win 2003 SE, I have to use unlocker to make GSM working and that is working just fine... But when I upgrade to any other version of ROM or radio ROM, GSM doesn't function like it should...
Device information for my BA:
Operatior Version: wm 6.1 ppc Pho...
ROM version: Black Skin HT4...
ROM date: 08/08/08
Radio version: 1.15.00
Protocol version: 1337.45
ExtROM version: 1337.45
ExtROM version: Black Kernel
Model no: PH20B
Many thanks in front for any idea
Try going back to the original ROM or reflashing you current one. I had a similar problem where my sim was not inserted completly and would keep dropping in and out.
Thanks for respond I already tried to change sim card, but same thing happened... I don't know where I can found the original ROM for my SPV M2000 orange UK to try to fix my GSM... Does anybody now where I can found the original ROM for my baby ?
Here are 2 places for the original ROMs, also with original radio ROM.

Thank you for help, I restored phone to shipped ROM RUU_v2.5_OrangeUK_v5.40.1.179.ship and everything works fine... I have don't have any problems..
Is that mean that now I can't upgrade my windows to any other windows for my phone, or I should try again with some differed ROM...do you have any idea what is best ROM for my BA ?
Working Device information:
Operator version: 5.40.1.179
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.06.02
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtROM version: 1.40.179 WWE
You should be able to upgrade to other ROMs, I am not to sure why you had the problem with so many different ROMs. I use xplode's R7.1 WM6.5 ROM, but there are other to use. swampy395 also has a pretty good 6.5 ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=482997
also make sure to remove the sd card AND the sim card from the device before upgrading and have the battery charged 100%, that should do the trick
please delete
Unfortunately its impossible to change ROM...I tried every Xplode ROM from ver 5 to 6.5, and also I tried swampy395 ROM... Always the same problem remains - GSM drop after I try to call or receive phone call, and after that, no SERVICE at all... I switched to every radio ROM from 1.00.00 - 1.15
I think I'm doing everything ok:
1) removed SIM card & memory card and confirmed that battery is 100% full
2) Entered bootloader and start MaUpgradeUt_noID
3) After upgrade is finished, I have done hard reset and entered in boot menu then do NO YES YES
4) After system is normally booted, I inserted SIM card, switched phone ON and reset it after that, because radio ROM need to boot also
And that's the way I have done upgrade
wow, that's a tough one.
question: i saw, the shipped rom you used, was orange uk, is your phone actually a british orange branded one, or was that just a test shipped rom?
have you ever, in wm2003 or wm6 tried running xda unlock? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=240784 to get a sim unlock or just for fun?
and let me just throw one more thing in the discussion, the newer roms seem to support newer sim cards that wouldn't have worked with wm2003, maybe that is true the other way around as well, maybe your sim card is too old to work in "your new phone". happened to me once with another phone. contacted my operator and they sent me a new sim card, with the same number. a copy of my old card, just on the new ones.
have you ever tried it with another sim card?
wow, that was all i can come up with, your problem is really complicated and you already tried so much yourself, there is hardly anything to suggest anymore
Chef Tony my friend,
I have to unlock my phone when I receive it from UK (ORANGE UK is phone for sure) I do unlock with xdadev_all_unlock-v1.6_138.exe and its successful. I do unlock again for many times with new ROMs but nothing happened. I also try 4 different SIM card and there is no change... I will contact my network operator to see what they think...
Many thanks for helping me

the problem started from no where i never tryed to change anything in my phone before
And after i upgrade the rom my youtube player doenst work!
please make sure, you tested all the things suggested before. plus after posting three posts in a row, i would have expected a little more information, like rom version, country, carrier, radio version and so on. there is nothing new to say, if we have to guess everything.
about youtube, well, that depends on what rom you are using, you might even be able to just go on the site in your browser, of if you want a faster and more reliable solution, try -=this=-
Im still on wm2003... there is no solution for me

Simlock to a specific sim card?

Hello,
I have a Kaiser locked by the operator.
The phone ONLY works with the original Sim card!
Does not work with cards from other operators, or even from the same operator.
I always get a message: "The SIM card is missing".
I already tried the several tutorials and tools to unlock it.
Even tried to change the ROM to recent versions.
Already tried differente versions of SPL... differente radio patches, different ROM's... 6.0, 6.1...
And no luck.
Never got that "Simlock" window that most tutorials talk about...
Every SIM card I try I get the "The SIM card is missing" message...
PDA features always work ok..
Any ideia?
Thank you so much!
Moved as not ROM Development.

It sounds like you have a sim card reader hardware issue, not a software unlock issue. Once you install a custom rom, your phone is unlocked. When you insert a sim from a different opperator, if the phone is locked, you will get a message like "sim card not supported" or something like that. Not "Sim card is missing". Try putting a small piece of paper behind the card when you close the sim card door. If that does not work, you may need to replace the reader.

The paper did not work...
Is replacis the reader a simple procedure?
Any ideia where i can find a new reader?
I guess my warranty was lost when I changed the ROM...
I'm Seconding the idea that you need something to help force better contact between the SIM card and the contacts inside the phone. I have had this problem before. one one of my Tilts, I just pushed down on the metal piece that covers the sim card...
sim card out, use your thumbnail to push down a bit... until the metal comes in contact with the contacts below. you should see that there is now a slight dip in the metal. then slide the sim card in.
Others have suggested a bit of paper between the sim and metal holder.
I tested both ways...
In last attempt I used a quite ammout of paper between metal and sim!
Almost could not close the door.
Already tried 4 different SIM's....
3 from Vodafone... and it's curious but they all look different in the contacts.
And the one from the original operator.
There is a thread to revert back to stock for warranty purpose check the sticky in ROM Development.
Yes, follow the process in the Wiki to return to the OEM settings, SPL and ROM. Then take it back for warrabty. MAKE SURE AND READ THE ENTIRE WIKI; if you miss one part, they will not warranty the phone. As for replacing the sim reader, it's not hard, you just need to follow the teardown and rebuild steps 100%, also in wiki.
Seen exactly the same (100% same syptoms to the letter) problem as this on 2 HTC Diamonds unlocked with olipro software.
Has the Kaiser been unlocked by the olipro kaiser unlocker ?
The 2 Diamonds had to go into service centre as the problem is linked to the block that is flashed during unlocking & mtty, rom flashing & re-running unlocking software done no good.

Yes...
I followed the tutorial step by step...
Then, the SIM problems happened...
After that, I tried it again with different hardSPL versions... and a the 6.1 ROM.
Both Portuguese and English version and no luck...
Now the problem is that I can't find the WM 6.0 portuguese ROM from my operator to revert it...
I guess I'll need to replace the reader myself..
