Calls go to Voice mail - HTC Incredible S

So i just wanna ask you guys that are your Incredible S has this kind of feature:
Very often when somebody try to call to me, call goes straight to voice mail.
Even if i got full bars of reception in my Incredible S.
What i read from finnish forums this is very general feature especially when you got Elisa network teleoperator.
So the main thing here is that if you have these kinds of problems let me know that are you in Finland or somewhere else and what teleoperator you have?
My phone has been in maintenance four times and it didn't help at all..
I try to have my money back from the seller but their report say that this is not the HTC's fault but the teleoperator's fault.
So now i have Incredible S with Elisa network and they didn't work together..

Disable voicemail with operator. Might help.

I second that opinion, try updating your radio

Thanks for the advices, but do i need flash rom and something else before i can update the radio?
Because i have case now with between seller, network operator and consumer agency.
Main reason why i asked that from you is that i get the right answer that who's fault is that.
Because network operator says that this is HTC'c fault, Seller says that this is network operator's fault. Consumer Agency says to seller that they have to give me money back for the device... But they don't give...

I have T-mobile and I really like the Tilt. If I were to able to get it unlocked will it work on T-Mobile's network?
If you you already have the HTC Tilt and using it on T-Mobile are there any conflicts?

Yes It works, I have not had any problems on T-mobile
You don't have any problems sending and receiving messages, or getting on the web?
How would I get it unlocked?

I think the tilt is a great phone, even if it isn't as great as it has potential to be. If something happened to mine today, I would buy another tomorrow. If you want a phone specifically for watching videos and taking pictures you could do better, but the tilt is one of best PDAs on the market right now (if not THE best).
HTC definately needs to come up with some drivers for us, but you have to admit, they still made one heck of a nice phone.
With my Tilt on T-Mobile I get all my services fine. I even use the 5.99 data plan for my internet on it. I reflashed to Dutty's 6.1, and when I hard reset, it asked me if I wanted to auto configure to T-Mobile's settings. Hit yes, viola, done.

I have had no problems at all with my tilt and tmobile. Two ways to get it unlocked are to call att and ask them to unlock it for you, or what most people are now unlocking it themselves using jockyw2001 Kaiser Sim Unlocker. Here is the link:

email routing issue + cannot download TM's w/ pics
Hi All ~~
It sounds like I may have found the right msg board! I am a T-Mobile customer using an unlocked AT&T phone with the original ROM (minus the bloatware). I currently have three msging accounts on the Tilt: test msging, a hotmail account and a work email account. I am having two annoying problems:
(1) I keep getting TMs saying that I have received an email on my work account; however I cannot (a) get the text msg notifications to turn off, nor (b) get the emails to actually pull down into the account. So: I know I have a work email (even who from), but cannot read it. Any thoughts on how to resolve either or both of these issues?
(2) I cannot receive or send pic text msgs. Really annoying; I am curious to see how other T-Mobile Tilt users have their settings arranged for this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide ~~ Kim

Tilt on T-mob
Im in the same boat.. A little further down the river.. Here is what I did.. Bought a brand new Tilt of Craigslist for $300.. I did 3 things..
I used a service on Ebay that gave me the unlock code for my phone.. search TILT or HTC unlock on ebay.. Costs $13 and is well worth it to avoid the risk of flashing the phone.. ++ I don't know how valuable your time is but it was well worth $13 to me.. It takes a while of digging around in the forums and figuring things out before you feel comfortable with all of the procedures and language.. I think I saw my phone actually trembling with fear as I plugged her in for a flash.. Maybe that was me..
Getting the unlock code for your phone gets the tilt working right out of the gate.. Put in your Tmobile sim, enter the unlock code and voila!! The only thing you need to do now is change the network settings for T-mobile Data..
After getting the phone unlocked, I did finally get the Hard SPL to work.. After that I flashed Dutty's new 6.1 Rom.. Everything is working great.. Love this phone..

Yes, and no. When you have 6.1 on it, the first thing it asks is if you want to configure to T-Mobile's network. If you have the Data Plan, it will configure for it. It will be just the Data though. You still have to manually input the proxies to get the full internet. The settings are here, on post #4:

Everything is great so far about the Tilt, i only have 2 problems, I can either search the internet using the Tmobile Data setting, or i can get MMS messages using the T-Mobile MMS setting, however i cannot get both to work at the same time. If anyone has figured this out please let me know how you did it.
The other problem is just the short battery life i seem to be getting.

Call T-Mobile and ask for a OTA settings transfer. They are very lenient with unlocked phones. Just say its a WM6 Pda phone and they will send you the settings.

Diamond voice quality issues..

i've looked through the htc forums and found other people with this same issue (the Unlocked HTC Diamond thread, http://www.htcwiki.com/thread/1458316/Ulocked+HTC+Diamond ) but haven't been able to figure out a solution, nor has anyone had much response. I have tried calling the US HTC support number, but since it hasn't been released in the US, the guy just said try hard resetting (which I'm trying now), or call back when the RMA dept is open in the morning (@()#*&[email protected])(#$&!!!!!).
All my out going calls, people say my voice is very raspy, or sounds like it's "digitized" or that I was a heavy smoker -- I recorded my self on a spare phone I had and I agree -- the voice is all messed up.
Is this a known problem? Is it something that needs to be fixed by getting a replacement under warranty? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm having the same problem, I'm trying now withthis, manually set the gsm freq. to 850/1900. Last 5 calls have been succesful. Still testing.
HTC Voice Problem
Yes, I have the same voice quality problem. i spoke to the HTC Costumer Service. They said some Bullcrap about the Frequencies being different cuz its not released in USA yet. I bought enough Phones that wernt released in US and i never had this problem.
THIS IS A VERY MAJOR PROBLEM for $650 phone. and HTC is being no HELP.
yah... i'm going to see how it goes w/the RMA dept tomorrow... ugh, what a pos (phone wise)
same problem here. I am disappointed but yet glad I am not the only with this problem. Maybe we can get it resolved.
what carrier are ya'll using w/the diamond? I'm using ATT... perhaps it is a carrier frequency issue?

Diamond and low 3G Signal

I own a Diamond since yesterday and have noticed having problems with 3G carriers (specifically H3G Italy) searching on the net I've seen that many people from different countries have the same problem. I think that the problem should be the radio rom shipped with the diamond. Actually I tested 1.00.25.03/05/06 all with poor signal or loss of signal or roaming.
I adviced HTC of the problem (saying that 3G signal is very poor) indicating the os rom and the radio rom.
Everyone that has the same problem should notify HTC on this form http://www.htc.com/europe/CS_Mail.aspx
so, perhaps, can begin working on it.

SEARCH Junior!!!
Agree with this 3G signal dows not improve on all Radio ROMs
I can confirm this.
I had a TytnII before I got the Diamond, and I tested them for a week against each-other.
The TytnII had 3G coverage about everywhere I live, but only 3-4 bars.
The Diamond mostly have 1 to nothing...

Hi Sergio,
what do you mean? Should I search the signal or should I search somewhere else here on the forum? I didn't find nothing but I'll give another look.
Any hints?
Hopefully the .16 rom will improove things a bit. I really hope that its a rom issue and not a hardware issue.

Do you know when it will be released?
There is a rom in the raphael forum with it but its the whole rom and not just the radio. I've emailed HTC - doubt ill get a responce. I'm suprised there isn't greater interest in this problem.
Incidently i think the .11 radio gave me slightly better 3g reception.

It looks to me that HTC has rushed the release of this phone before they properly tested it (most likely to coincide with the release of 3G iPhone). They are using us, their customers, to test it for them.
The 3G reception here in Australia is very bad (never above 2 bars) and it constantly switches over to GSM, which in some cases causing for a call to be dropped. Pathetic.

Hi broncos nice to see you I think tomorrow I will call HTC by phone
i wondering if there is a Serie of devices which have those problems ,
2 of my collegues have also a diamond , in the same room with the same Provider , i have NO or 1bar when they have full ??
Now i tried alot of ROM's and i came to the conclusion to send the Device to HTC, so i have to flash back to SSPL ...
1st HTC and no luck ...
The same problem in Spain with the carrier "Yoigo". I have already sent the appropriate message to HTC.
I have send email past week but I don't have answer.
I think it's a big big problem!!!. What HTC doing to solve it?
it does nothing???!!!
Hi guys
3G is not everywhere yet even here at my place it often goes down depending on where I am.
But when I have this problem and look at my friends Iphone he has the same problem. So I wonder if this is a diamond\Iphone or a provider problem?
Grtzzzz
it's 3 years that i use only 3G phones and only with diamond i have this problem (i read also iphone has the same problem)
but it is sure that the problem is of the diamond (and iphone) because all the other phone dont' have problem (also 3Gphones pay 20/30euros have no problem!!!)
I just hope that its a software problem rasther than a hardware fault.

God Damn Vodafone!!!!!!! why!!

So much for everyone recieving the full froyo update!
as usuall vodafone balls everything up for all us users. It makes no sense unless they are removing features as the explanation around emergency calling doesnt fit, in that case users using a nexus one roaming on vodafone wouldnt be able to emergency call.
Nexus One customers that bought the phone from Vodafone will be getting Froyo, albeit a little delayed. We have to make a few changes to Froyo to optimize it for the Vodafone network (small stuff around Emergency calling, etc.), so it will take at least another couple of weeks (changes + testing).
Apologize for the extra delay, but please understand that this is a large scale deployment with lots of intricacies and we have to be prudent. I can assure you that we are striving hard to get Froyo out to all Nexus One customers ASAP.
Thanks for your continued support!

What if I bought my N1 directly from Google
I wish they would be more verbose about the actual issue.. surely anyone who has bought their phone direct from Google should be having certain issues with Froyo in Europe then?
So is that all EPF21B handsets? I didn't get mine from Vodafone, I bought it from Phones 4 U and put it on a voda iPhone tarriff. AFAIK I could've put it on any network.
I guess it's registered on the vodafone network now...

all EPF21B handsets are assigned to vodafone, some phone shops might sell you it as another network, but they were meant to be vodafone only.
So yes unfortunatly all EPF21B phones have to wait for whatever crap google are doing to it, and given the amount of time they are saying it is gonna take i doubt it will be just minor changes like they say.

You did get it from vodafoe albeit through a phone shop.
Definitely couldn't have put it on any network. Phone are supplied from the networks not phone shops.
Think they need to 'optimize' out the tethering ability?
I stand corrected (said the man in the orthopedic shoes). Cheers for the info guys.
So all this talk of all the updates for the N1 coming direct from Google with no interruptions from the networks was all pie in the sky?

Being an unlocked phone you can use any networks sim in it but it would still have vodafone customized firmware. Doesn't make it O2s phone by using O2 sim in it.
You said it couldn't be used on any network, I was saying this is incorrect. Am not saying sticking in a sim from another operator magically changes the firmware.

Have you tried flashing the new FroYo at all or are you worried about voiding warranty?
I thought there was a version which would update all firmware versions?
I wanted to stick it on one of the guys at works' phones but he didn't want to. He's on a VF contract with the phone coming from VF.
I bought mine sim free from Google and stuck my contract sim in and rooted within a month. Never looked back to be honest.
You should consider it and if something goes wrong, just go straight to HTC or claim on your own insurance (home or phone specific).
I wouldn't hang around waiting for VF to sort it out, they'll probably bastardise the firmware anyway and lock out stuff.
Damn, some of you people are dense.

Surely any worth while improvements would be in Froyo to benefit everyone, I can't see Vodafone running something that is unique to their network otherwise every single phone they release would need specific software to them.
Also isn't there other networks in Europe supplying the N1 that isn't Vodafone but use the same build? I do fear this is more about removal of tethering, as there is people on here running Froyo just fine on Vodafone's network.
Maybe there's hope for tether after all
Hey guys, I have an AT&T nexus1 now running frf85b on Vodafone in East Africa. Tether doesn't work already because of a DNS problem. I am pretty sure it's not a phone or computer problem, but some discrepancy between Voda and Froyo. Perhaps Voda is getting that worked out in their network before releasing frf85b. Or a different froyo build is on it's way, but either way, this seems like there may be hope for tether. If they didn't want you to have tether they could give it to you broke now.
Thats bull****...
Not everyone in europe uses Vodafone. I bought it from a retailer.
Since VF is the only provider with the n1 they also got it from VF.
Most people arent even using VF as their provider. Why should we need VF-specific ROM versions?
Vodafone forums are reporting another 2-3 weeks, which is why I unlocked the bootloader & am now running FRF85B.
Ha! up yours Vodamoan, I'm using an O2 sim anyways! LOL!
http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2010/jun/29/android-froyo-google-update
there you go.
This update is not going to include any unique features for vodafone, neither is it going to include any improvements over the froyo which is already released. think about it why would google give a better version to voda rather than its own customers. neither is this update because of emergency calling like google claims, as to pass fcc rules the phone must be capable of creating emergency calls anywhere where there is reception, wether that be a us phone in the uk or vice versa it makes no difference.
this could be google making some changes to optomize it for vodafones network, but then the question is why dont other networks need optomized versions?
voda has made it clear in many sources it isnt happy about tethering on android or other phones as they fear it will cripple their network like att in america. so is it just coincidence that they have asked google to make changes? highly unlikely, more likely is google is either removing or limiting tethering on the vodafone version.
Quite how this will stop people tethering when they can just switch firmwares is beyond me.
Just a shame vodafone and to some way google (by agreeing to change it for vodafone) are going completely against the openness of android. Infact google themselves stated a few weeks back that they werent happy about the fragmentation of android, yet they themselves are fragmenting it for the benefit of a network.

German Galaxy Note bought from Singapore, now has bad radio?

I bought my Note on EBay, received Jan 3rd. Jan 29th the radio started acting up. It goes from H+ to H, 3G, E then G, then "no service", or sometimes from E to no service, then back to H+, then over again. Weird thing is, if I'm streaming [email protected] 128kbs or HQ video, it has no trouble doing it, even for long periods of time, flawlessly. I'm not being throttled, replaced sim card, tried all the APN's I could find, with the same result. As far as I know, nothing changed from the time It worked fine, to when the trouble started. I factory reset it twice also. I know Samsung US can't/won't help me, I called to make sure. They couldn't even give me a number or email to Sammy UK.
Any one experience this, and fix it? Did a setting get screwed up? How would I get Warranty work done? Or am I just screwed. I did register at SammyUK, submitted a trouble ticket. Also contacted the eBay seller, but haven't heard back, and probably won't.
I spent $700 on this thing. Any help anyone can give would be much appreciated.

Hi there. I live in Finland and bought my Note from Amazon Germany. Not exactly the same situation but never faced the issues you mentioned.
Did you try to update your device? I really doubt if the problems are caused by APNs- To me it more or less sounds like a problem with radio of the phone. I assume you are not rooted? If you would be, you could try flashing some other modem as it might help.
AT&T is notorious for coming with innovative ways to hassle the customers with non AT&T branded smartphones on their networks too....just a thought.
flash a new firmware that belong to you country.

Thanks for the replys. The seller responded and said they will take care of it. Thank goodness!
