I have a TyTN II that was on Hutchinson 3G UK, my dad had it unlocked (although I could have done it simply using tools here, but I'm not sure how he had it done, SPL was stock when I checked etc).
Anyway, I have HardSPL and flashed the TPC Elite V11 MEGA Manila Only.
I upgraded the radio to 1.71.09.01, protocol version 25.75.40.02.eMoH.
I can't seem to get any data connection at all, I just get the sync arrows with a cross.
I'm not sure if the problem is due to some software, or if it is because the device is from the Hutchinson 3G network, I have looked through the WiKi and FAQ and most things point to American providers and are of no help.
Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Have you ran Connection Setup?
Yeh, iv just downgraded from an xperia so that was the first thing i checked. im in.a diferent area now with full hsdpa and no problems, just wont work in a gprs or 3G area.
further ideas? thanks
I had issues with connectivity with the default connection setup and 3g. Not sure if it's related or not but I installed the htc connection wizard and it corrected any network misconfigurations. I can upload that cab in a bit if you are interested. in giving it a shot (unless thats the setup you have already used)

Hi all. I have a T-Mobile MDA that I have flashed with the latest i-Mate and Qtek roms as well as the stock T-Mo rom and I can't seem to find a network. Whereas several other phones can (including my i-mate JasJar). Is there something that I can do to help the reception so that it can find a network (upgrade radio rom maybe). ANYTHING - I AM DESPERATE!
Nobody? C'mon PLEASE! I am sure some of you out here have an answer!
is the phone and bluetooth working? It maybe a damage of the device.
everything works perfect. bluetooth, wifi... the only thing is that it does not find at network when I am at work. It does in some other places but not at work. When I use another cell phone (motorola, nokia) then i have no problem getting a network where I am. As soon as I put my chip in the MDA I can't find a network even when I do a manual search. The only thing it can find is Cingular but not a T-Mo network
now i understand I thought you mean a wifi network, not a GSM network. the signal is often very bad. after i hit my vario a few times, it worked better, sounds crazy, but it has worked but i don't recommend this solution
anybody with a working solution?
Searchng, Searching...
Your MDA is not finding a signal in certain areas? Sounds familair.

Hello All,
I have a problem with my kaiser, it started i think 2 weeks ago. I have vodafone (netherlands) with a data connection account (hsdpa). Now is the problem that i can't use umts (3g) or hspda. The only thing i can use is gprs. It looks like the modem or something is broken. But that is a kind of weird because (if i understand correctly) its al the same chip (wifi and so on). When i open internet explorer it begins to connect a gprs, 3g data connection. But it can't connect, than you can see a X by the synchronisation arrows (on the top of the screen). And after a few secconds it comes with a message that with the current settings there can't be a data connection. But if seen other messages as well ( the modem on the other side disconnected the connection) The weird thing is that i tried my sim card in my friends kaiser there it works fine, so it have to be my kaiser.
Ok what i tried:
I have a dutch htc kaiser (not vodafone branded or anything)
I use the latest dutty rom, but i tried the orriginal rom and different roms to see if the problem was the rom or something.
When i let the 3g mode on i can see that the phone finds a 3g connection (to call over umts).
Is there any program or tool or something so i can test the modem?
Or does anyone know a sollution for me, i will be very greatfull!!
Ok i tried a other radio to, maybe this was the problem. But it didn't, at this moment i have the default htc dutch rom (who was on the phone when i got it). I searched the net for the same problems, what i found was that this error could be happening when you have your wifi connection open, but i have wifi disabled. The phone is still receiving a 3G connection, but after a few secconds the 3G icon is gone and the failed synchronisation icon (two arrows with an X) is visible. than you can see that the phone is reconnecting. and then if i want to connect to the internet the same story as above is happening.
When i search internet i couldn't find an tool to test the chip/modem.
Because i have it spl unlocked i can't return it for rma, is it posible to restore the default spl?
Hi,
unfortunately I have the same problem with my Kaiser. I have an unbranded German version and it worked fine with all bands (GPRS, EDGE, UMTS(3G) and HSDPA) but since two weeks ago its only working with GPRS and EDGE mode. I have to change band-selection from AUTO to GSM in order to make or receive any calls.
I didn't do any ROM flashing, everything remains the same as the device was shipped.
I assume, that something is damaged but I have no idea how it could happen or how I can find out exactly what is causing the problem.
Since there is still warranty I'll return my Kaiser soon.
seems to be a widening problem
hi,
it seems many have the same issue, see my other posts for linkage to some other threads on it...no solution yet as far as I can tell.
rich
p.s. moderators any chance to link these threads and make a sticky?
ok, thanks for your reply. I've allready found another thread for that issue. But im still uncertain if its a bug in my device or a combination of a bug with a provider specific (Tmob Germany) problem or if its only the provider to blame for??

I have a slightly different problem. I don't have 3G in my area but only EDGE. Now the problem is that I cannot get speeds higher than about 80 kbs with EDGE.
Now when I put the same SIM in my Touch I can get speeds upto 200 kbs. So obviously this is not a problem of my service provider but rather something wrong with the device.
I have repeated the trial by swapping SIMs a number of times but with similar results all the time. Really don't know of a solution. Will appreciate any help.
haven't seen the edge problem
hi,
my edge speeds seem to vary more by location...I measure up to 200+kbs but have seen it go much lower too. there is a location where I can still get 3G working and i measured up to 1.7mbs for downloading! At my home location it is sporadic edge only and I can't even always get to speakeasy.com to test it, sometimes the speedtest says its not licensed..switching to wifi and it works. My guess is some needed ports are getting blocked by at&t at times..because sometimes it works. I brought all this up with at&t..they are taking some charges off this month and switched me to a cheaper plan too...so they at least seem to care even if they can't quite fix things yet.

I have this weird problem with data connections. I couldn't find anything simular to this on the forum.
My provider (vodafone NL) does supports umts & 3G, I got a full data subscription, and the area i'm in is fully covered.
Now if I go to Settings - Phone - Band there are 2 different settings you can tweak; 'Network Type' and 'GSM/UMTS Band'. Those are standard set to 'Auto'. With those settings my phone says it has 3G connection (above the indicator bars and an icon), but i can't make any calls or get any data from the network. sometimes it also says the server ended the connection, but it still remains connected.
If I set Network Type to GSM, I can make calls, but only connect trough gprs wich is waaaaay to slow for me.
Setting it to WCDMA won't give me a connection at all. Turning HSDPA on or of doesn't make any difference also.
I figured updating my ROM would fix this, but it didn't. I tried different roms.
Is this a known problem, and more important, is there a fix for this ? It is driving me crazy !!
little more info;
ROM version : dutty's WM6.1 WWE
Radio version : 1.64.08.21
Protocol version : 25.74.40.02H
HTC branded Tytn II
Any advice is very welcome !!
Thanks in advance
i keep mine on auto but use bandswitch to switch between edge and 3g or some people gprs to 3g,sounds like a proxy issue since u wouldnt make calls on the wrong band,gsm works for calls so that part must be right so it has to be your internet settings and/or proxy
I checked the (proxy) settings on the website of my provider, and it seems to be okay. Those are settings for gprs tough, but it seems to me it should work as well for umts. It are also the settings the device initialy chooses for my provider..
I was thinking, might a radio update do the trick...? I did read somewhere that has to do with connections..
not necessarily, radios are more so driver issues for hardware such as gps,bluetooth,wifi,keyboards and cameras. i highly doubt another radio could fix this one since i never came across this with any combo of rom and radio before
Well then I don't know anymore what to do. It is probably a hardware related problem so I'll have to make a phonecall to HTC.
Thanks for the advice dyetheskin !
If someone does have a solution... still happier to get it fixed myself !

I am having the same issue.
More wierd is that it used to work perfectly in the beginning and couple of days ago it started acting like this.
I called my mobile provider thinking it might be USIM problem, however it wasn't.
Now I also think it's a HW problem. Next week I'll take it to a lab and hopefully it will be an easy solution.
I called HTC Tech support 2 weeks ago, and they confirmed it was a hardware related problem. They had 2 simular cases before..
Well, at least they will repair it for free
Hi all,
I'm new to MDAs and to these forums so bear with me. I looked around quite a bit and have been unable to resolve my issue. I obtained an HTC Touch Diamond (a T-mobile Compact IV) in the UK and am trying to get it working in the US. While in the UK there were no connection issues but as soon as I got to the US the connection is unstable. I have managed to make about 10 calls in the US but they cut out after a short time and most of the time I cannot make a call or cannot connect to a network at all. It can always see Tmobile and AT&T but can rarely connect, and when connected can rarely call. I have flashed the TLR 3.08.07.16 WWE ROM and updated the radio ROM to 1.09.25.23
Any help would be greatly appreciated
from my basic knowledge of radio, uk networks use gsm while most us networks use cdma that mite be your problem!!
try going to start>settings>phone (in the personal tab)> scroll to the band tab and change ur network from auto to wcdma!! you may also have to change the band setting your using, but u may have to check with your network on what frequency they use
Thanks for the suggestion. Thus far I have only been able to connect on GSM, CDMA has never worked. I also have been using the 850 1900 band which I heard is the one used in the US. I have connected occasionally but am still having trouble.
I am not sure if this the right place for this discussion but I've got a problem and need help. My ATT Tilt works fine in my home service area (3G Network) with 4 bars consistently and drops the connection as soon as I leave it. I've Tweak the setting, stripped the software off except for the basics, hard set the phone, and nothing works. ATT replaced the phone twice but didn't solve the problem. I leave my area and No Service. I travel a lot so this is a major problem. Is there a solution?
WM6.1
ROM Version 3.57.502.2 WWE
Radio 1.65.21.18
hmm not sure if it helps..
I read somewhere that if U turn of 3G and use normal GSM, it might help...
maybe other areas do not have 3G network and only normal GSM networks?
Thanks...I installed "Enable Band Page (Tilt Rom).CAB" and changed the GSM/UMT Band settings. Now the phone works out of area.
and how did you come across that cab file?
