Hello all i have a htc one 32gb running on at&t recently updated to 4.3 and now have lost wifi.It continually says turning on or error and i am flying through my data with no wifi called at&t and i had already done everything they told me to do but did it again anyway, which is force closed anything wifi, factory reset and all that crap. Anyway bottom line is i can't get a new phone under warranty because my phone is dented, and don't wanna pay 200 for a new one. So only thing i have heard which is a possiblility to my problem is a custom rom which is fine with me i have done this before... But only problem is my volume buttons are also broke. so i need a way to access hboot with no volume buttons.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
THANK YOU!

hi everybody, somewhat new to this forum and really enjoying it
i've came across a problem with my att tilt and searched for about 2 days straight looking for a solution..i couldnt find one
so a little history of what i've done with my tilt..
-removed all of att programs by 'clear storage' and then pushing the soft reset before it loads
-downloaded the htc home plugin, htc home customizer, wizard dialer, kaiser tweak with the new xml file from dec 2007, and i have a black theme and a san francisco bridge theme that i switch back to
now the problem is I CANT MAKE/RECEIVE PHONE CALLS/TEXT
one thing i notice is that the network or service it is using (G, E, or 3G) is mostly on E and that is when i cannot make make or received calls or text, even with full bars. i've never had this problem before until about a week now
the last thing i did to my phone was download the new dec 2007 xml file for kaiser tweak. the phone worked fine for about a week until my problem occured
the only time i can get my phone to work is when it is in 3G or G and i rarely see those being used on my phone.
i've tried clear storage a bunch of times to see if it would change but it doesnt
i believe this isnt a network problem because everyone in my house has att, i can only thing its a phone problem
if anyone has any solutions or comments please help me out
i've had this phone since thanksgiving so worst case scenario, i turn it in to htc to get a new one
thanks
anybody ever run into this problem or anything similar with their tilt?
Did you allow the network config tool to run after the first reset? Are you using a custom rom or the default?
what radio are you running?
im not sure what the network config tool is and im using a default rom
im not sure what radio im using, how do i got about finding out what radio im using?
If you don't mind losing all of your data do a hard reset (hold the two soft keys and press the sytlus in the bottom of the phone) Go ahead and set up the device...once this is done a dialogue box should pop up saying something about Autoconfig will take place, or something like that. Let this proceed all on its own...it should after its done ask if you want to soft-reset now, select yes and you should be in business.
what are the two soft keys?
and also..does it matter if i have a simcard in the phone or not?
is the 'clear storage' the same as the hard reset?
hard reset is to hold the two soft keys and the stylus button on the bottom
what are the two soft keys?
Clear Storage essentially is, but mentally for me its different . In any event the soft keys are the unmarked keys directly to the right of your green call button and to the left of the red end button. After autoconfig/customization takes place...it probably will load all the crap back on the device, just FYI. If you truly want to get rid of stuff, you'll probably want to start researching ultra-clean roms, but from the sounds of things you're not quite ready to get into that yet, and you can screw your device if you don't read up on things properly.
i've done the hard reset and let everything load after that..i have all the att bloat ware..but i didnt see a autoconfig for the network
im still having the same problem
my service/network only works on E, whenever it is on G or 3G, its one bar and when i try to call or text, the phone disconnects and goes to E
any other advice?
Hmm, how old is your sim card?
I had the same problem. I had a few 3rd party applications installed. I called Att, they tried calling themselves with obviously no luck (busy signal, or straight to voicemail). I took out the sim card and tried my 2 year old phone and it worked fine. They sent me a replacement 2 days ago and it has been working fine since.
my sim card is about 2 years old i think
it looks like im gonna have to get a replacement
thanks for your help guys
I'd try a new sim card first...had a similar problem with my kaiser at first, but not quite the same. It may save you the days of a non-working unit. Sim cards are free and quick (just go to your local att store)
i used a friends sim card..same thing
i tried calling att TWICE and they said it might be a network problem and told me to call back later???
its obvious i need a new phone
who should i contact and what should i do..im trying to return my phone to get a working one

How long have you had your phone?
If it is under 30 days, go back to an AT&T Store (even if you bought it via phone or online) they will exchange it for you. If you don't have an account, MAKE SURE you take your receipt. If you are an AT&T customer you don't even have to bother with the receipt, they will just look up your account for you.
If you are an AT&T customer (may also apply if your not) and have had your phone over 30 days, then you have to call warranty exchange department. 1-800-801-1101
They will go through a few steps with you, then will make arrangements to send you out a new phone.
BEWARE:
Make sure you have LOTS of free time when you call, you WILL be on the phone forever lol.
I am on my 5th Tilt, I hope you have better luck than I have so far
*BUMP* I recently came across the same problem and I am only able to send and recieve text messages. I can not recieve or send calls but I get a new voicemail notification when 1 is recieved.... HELP!!!
i bought a used g1 no physical problems took it into a shop and they couldnt find anything wrong with it internally so im guessing its a software issue....dont know if this guy i bought it from tried to mess with root and messed something up but im thinking its some sort of software stuff....can anyone PLEASE help!?!?!?!?! i either get this phone fixed or keep using my nokia that seems like its from 1998 and its killing me!!!!!!
What are the stats of the phone? You can check the versions in the settings\about phone area. Model #, Firmware version, Baseband version, kernel version and build number information would be helpful.
Is it already rooted? If not, you may want to go ahead and start reading up on the root process. Some of the newer builds may or may not help the issue. But if it isn't rooted and you arent getting a signal, it very well may be a network issue. Also, does your phone service have a data plan? Has the phone gone through and passed all of the sign-in procedure? (being from another country, I am not sure what all you have to do to activate your phone) Sim card good?
thats the problem i did a factory reset to input my gmail info and now i cant get past the damn activation screen! ive been through all the customer support through tmo and cant figure anything out!!! im goin crazy
also ive found this webpage http://developer.htc.com/adp.html that has recovery, system and radio images from htc and every time i try one of them it comes up and says no signature or no verification.......not sure what to do

you cant apply those because your phone is not rooted. learn what your doing without randomly flashing everything that can killed your phone. and yes, you can kill your phone permanently flashing the wrong **** (i.e radio/spl)
Hi All,
I had a strange issue happen to me last night. but first some background. I bought a Bell locked phone and unlocked it to work under Rogers. It worked for well over a month without any problems. I never flashed any roms of anything like that, just rooted and unlocked it. All of a sudden last night the phone would not recognize my rogers sim card anymore. I tried to enter in the unlock code but it would not recognize it. I went to the APN settings and they were blank. Entereing the correct APN settings would not matter as they would not be saved.
I tried formatting the whole by doing a factory reset but that did nothing. I tried searching for fixes but the only thread i found that had any solutions was this one forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9069113#post9069113 - after pulling that file i found i did not have that paramater at all.
I now have no idea what to do and am stuck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
no one knows anything? im stuck with a phone that can do everything except make phonecalls
was lucky enough to find this topic:

APN setting wont save
Hello
I have recently loaded the FRX04 updated os for my touch pro2 (rhodium) and cannot seem to get an apn settidng to save therefore cannot get a mobile network to work.
I am currently running off wifi but cant make outgoing calls or do pretty much anything with the sim card
I have tested two sim cards in the phone (which was originally on vodafone) but when it was running the windows platform it is fine with any network.
I read somewhere that it may be a bug in the mnc field which is why it wont save a new apn?
I have looked at downloading the SGS unlock tool but i dont think this is the issue
any suggestions will be appreciated
Hey all I have rooted and S-off with moonshine and flashed This Rom to my Sprint Htc One. I then programmed it to work with page plus cellular, in which it was working great for about 3 days. I had gotten a text around 3:30AM & when I woke up the phone had NO signal, service, or data! Upon further examinations, I found that my settings to adjust the roaming features was GONE! The ESN checked out clear thru Sprint so I'm not worried about the phone being shut off or anything. Could this be an H-boot issue or what? I have since reinstalled the mentioned rom above but my settings are still gone. The pull down menu shows the Airplane mode to be on but it is NOT on anywhere else and I can't turn it off in the pull down menu. I hope this is my problem but I really need to know how to resolve it. I've tried to do a screenshot of the pull down menu but it grabs the home screen.
EDIT: I have resolved my issue. When I originally programmed my phone, I left the sim card from sprint in the phone and went with page plus. Evidently, with the sim in place, sprint was able to change some settings to shut off my radio. I found out thru sprint that the phone was activated on july 21st & deactivated on july 22nd. This gave them about 12 days to shut off my radio after deactivation. I went into cdmaws and found what they had changed, switched it back for a working radio again.

I will give this a try and here is a screenshot.. As you see the wifi still works but the radio has been disabled.
Edit: I completed the RUU and still have NO cell radio, wifi works fine. I've only had this phone 3 days before it stopped working and NEVER dropped it or abused it. I have read posts where some folks had the antenna wire come off but I'm thinking this is just what sprint is telling people. I don't see where there would be enough room inside the ONE for the wire to just "Fall Off"!
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
Well I still have an Ipod like Htc One! No luck yet on restoring the cell radio and I'm kind of lost where to go from here. I'm guessing if the antenna wire came off, there would be no settings for roaming so I'll take it apart to see if that's the problem.
Help with NV items
I have tried every ruu and even went back to the 1.44 hboot to let my phone update itself to android 4.3. When I do the factory reset, my nv settings stay just as I programmed it to page plus. What I need is for someone to send me a copy of their NV items read thru cdmaws paid version or qpst, any means you have to read Please? I don't need or want any imsi or meid or personal info, just the nv items from a working phone. I'm really beginning to think that my phone needs to be replaced but I bought it from ebay and am not a sprint customer. If anyone knows how I could go about getting this replaced thru htc Please let me know but I would like to try the nv items first. If I messed up the phone then I'll fix it but I really think I have a hardware issue, otherwise I'd never think about a warranty.
Just out of curiosity, when you flashed the software to your phone and you lost your signal and settings, did the baseband on the phone show as "Unknown"? I get that from time to time, either due to incompatible software or a bad flash.
The phone actually worked great for about 3 dats and the baseband was and still is showing. I feel that I may need to send it in for warranty but I'd like to have the original nv items to flash first to see if my cell radio will work. The wifi works fine and I can change the radio in *#*#4636#*#* to anything I wish but that still doesn't give me reception. I've been flashing phones for 3 or 4 years & have seen the baseband show up as unknown but I've never lost cell radio until now. :crying:
" I don't see where there would be enough room inside the ONE for the wire to just "Fall Off"! "
Well it actually can. Not fall off literally but rather disconnect from its socket. This has actually been an issue with the HTC OneX's wifi antenna also.. If u check out this guide: http://www.slashgear.com/htc-one-teardown-proves-durability-a-top-priority-28275687/ you will see the black cable that goes from top to bottom and connects two pcbs. That's your culprit if indeed you have a hardware issue. What i would do if i were you is first find one of my carrier's antennae and go as close to it as possible and see if you get any reception at all (best chance i guess is in a subway station). I guess that once you're that close to a transmitter your circuitboard is sufficient antenna though i might be wrong. If i am right and you get reception than its hardware. If you dont get reception than the cause is uncertain..can be hardware, can be software.. Anyway, i wish you best of luck with fixing your problem!
Cheers!
Wish me luck, today I'm headed to the sprint store to see if the tech can find anything out for me.
Edit: No such luck! The guy told me that when the phone was deactivated thru sprint that the radio was shut down and if I got a contract to activate the phone, then it would work! Hmm I didn't buy that so I told him I programmed it to page plus which worked for a while & bla bla bla... No go. Does anyone know how or if I could send it back to HTC for repair?
I finally decided to upgrade from my Nexus 4 to a Z1, and I moved my Three UK contract SIM into the new Z1, it installed the internet & MMS settings and it was fine. But all of a sudden completely random the speeds will drop, the ping will go into the 800s and I can't really load anything on my device.
I'm really not sure what the issue is, whether it's a problem with the drivers, a problem with the actual antenna or if it's just an issue with the software.
I've just tried a factory reset and I'm still getting the same issues, it will be fine most of the time and then just deteriorate until I just can't load anything. The only thing that seems to fix this is a reboot or turning off mobile data and turning it back on again. Obviously this isn't acceptable when I've just paid this amount of money for the phone.
Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to flash another ROM in case I do actually send it back because won't it void the warranty? If not, how do I go back to stock if I have flashed another ROM?
When putting the SIM back in my Nexus 4, there's no issues at all as there wasn't when I used it before.
I'm really lost, I love this phone but it seems I may have to send it back... Help appreciated!
Contact Call Center of your Provider an tell them to give you the right settings for internet and mms, the settings installed automatically on Z1 not always work. They will send you an sms with the installation. I had similar problem solved with the sms.
