Well as the titel says,
since about 1 week I'm facing the problem that i can't receive calls when my phone is locked.
I found a similar thread which is saying thats because of a signal-loss. The strange thing is, that i do have full signal!
If my phone isn't locked all is fine and i get calls, it's only when it's locked. If somebody is trying to call me, only mailbox is answering and just in time i get a sms that there are missed calls.
Does somebody else have this problem, or an idea how to fix this?
btw. I'm on faria rom v5.1. and don't rly want to chance the rom, as I'm pretty happy with this one (except this problem)...
Thanks for your help in advance
cheers, Rob
I have similar problem. No only can't be called, also i can't place calls. It is a strange situation because after restart i have no network. After 2 or 3 restarts i have network. I can't find a solution yet. I sent back to service my phone under warranty and they told me that the situation described by me is not confirmed. In service phone is working normally.

Hi there,
As you can probably see, im new on the Forum. Been using it for years and always found an answer to any of my problems without posting but im stuck with this one.
Im having trouble with my QTEK 2020i. For some reason it has stopped recieving SMS. Everything else works fine. I can send SMS out, MMS works fine and no problem phone calls. My service centre number is right, ive changed my SIM twice and still having the problem. Should I do a ROM or Radio upgrade to see if it will fix my problem or does it sound as if the phone it self needs repaired?
Cheers,
Gus
I would doubt it was hardware. I take it that you can make phone calls and can send SMS. So it must be down to the notifications.
I'd take a backup and then do a hard reset. If it then works you know that it is a software problem and can investigate if you want to or just re setup your device.
Ive done 2 hard resets and it still isnt working. would I be beter doing a ROM upgrade?

Hi All,
Something weird happened yesterday, my tytn II stopped working normaly.
I cannot make calls anymore and people calling me get my voicemail, although it shows full reception (t-mobile). The only call works, is calling my voicemail. I didnt change anything in the phone prior to this problem.
Also the battery is dropping down very fast. Like 50% in 5 hours without using anything...
I putted my sim in another phone, it works fine, so the problem lies within the phone. I hardresetted the phone but the problem remains...
Anybody had the same problems and/or knows how to fix this???
I have an original HTC tytn II on tmobile network.
THanks!!

Thanks!

Hi,
I also have the same problem you write about. It also happened for no apparant reason. I notice that I can make calls to other mobiles that are close to my phone in proximity... odd?!
I've sent an email to HTC ... waiting on a response.
I have started getting the same sort of problem. When I try and make calls - it just won't connect. Sometimes a soft reset works - but not always. People cannot call me and I get messages about missed calls and voicemail messages.
It's starting to make my Orange TyTnII virtually unusable.
Suggestions?
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...
I'm experiencing reception problems with my phone. The first two weeks this was not a problem but end of last week and yesterday and today I'm having troubles with the phone. I have between 2-5 bars (average 3) when talking and I'm always calling from the exact same location and same room (working from home).
The problem is that after a few minutes I can't hear the other person. The person calling me can hear me without problems but I can't hear him. So I hang up, call back and the same happens after a few minutes.
I have tried with and without headset and also tried to soft reset it without result. Any ideas what to do? Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Yes, I might be able to try that or I'll try to get it replaced. Looks like no one else is experiencing the same.
I to am having some serious Reception issues but im with Optus in Australia. When on 3G at home.. cant make or take calls. So i have turned it to just GSM so i can get calls and make them.. Sometimes I did get calls and messages on 3G at home.. but today, it just wouldnt do anything..
There are updates from other counties which seem to have a radio update.

Hi,
Is there any way just to extract the Radio upgrade ?
I have my Diamond 2 in french, and want to keep it like that.
I wrote to the french HTC Support, and they just ask me to :
- Hard reset the phone : Done and useless
- Change the sim card : not done as the sim card I used is completely new
- Disable encryption : disabled and useless....
So the only solution will be a radio upgrade only.
Thanks

Dear users,
So 2 months ago I returned to Europe from USA. I bought an AT&T Captivate over there and since it could not be used over here, I unlocked it. But after unlocking the phone I noticed an very frustrating problem :
When someone calls me there are absolutely no problems no mater how many times they call.
When I call someone the first time everything is also ok.
But when I try to call someone after I already called once, there is no sound. I can't hear absolutely nothing and neither can the person that is beeing called. Not a sound, not even the "beep...beep" sound (sorry, i don't know how it's called in English) when you are making a phone call.
So basicly I have to restart my phone after every time I call someone to be able to make a call and actualy speak to them, and then restart again.
I hope I described clearly what the problem is. Is there some way I can fix this because it is extreamly frustrating ?
P.S. i'm using Froyo OS.
The Froyo build is Beta - so it could be your problem. Also, the Captivate is still an AT&T phone, so even though it is unlocked, it may not like the network you are using.
You could try the following:
1. Different SIM - different provider
2. Roll back to 2.1
