Hi, I am in need of some help with my MDA Compact which is on a T-Mobile contract.
I am having a number of issues, a lot which have occured since I got it just over a year ago but I have lived with until now. The main issue I have with it now which is quite a major issue is that I am not receiving all of my calls!
I have had a number of people say that they cannot get in touch with me as their call to my phone goes straight to answerphone as if its switched off or has no signal. I then later get a text from T-Mobile saying I have a missed call. Now I know its not turned off and this fault is occuring in full strength signal areas so I assume it is a fault with the phone or software.
I was told by T-Mobile that they needed to send it away and it would be upto 2 weeks before I got it back, I cannot do without it for that long and my old Vario II's battery has died now so cant use that. They said it would just have a software update and I could do that myself.
The other issues I have had with it include....
Turning on screen and it totally freezes, nothing works including the power button, I have to remove the battery.
Press phone button to make a call and it takes me to the programs screen, this happens 2-3 times before sorting itself out.
Internet page gets stuck in ladscape mode or slow to return to portrait.
Hanging in screens and buttons slow to react
Crazed screen as if the screen is cracked, rebooting it is only cure.
On the make call screen, last two dialled numbers appear but keypad is missing although when you press the screen where the numbers should be they appear as each is pressed.
When receiving a message the phone vibrates and will not stop, it continues until phone is turned off.
I sometimes get a phantom unread email that is not there, have to delete email account and set it back up again to clear it.
Back of phone gets very hot when using Web 'n' walk
Also I have Sync'd with my old computer at work last year which was fine. I have downloaded Activesync 4.5(I think) to my laptop and connected my phone to try and back it up. It Sync's but will not copy any contacts, it says I have to disconnect device, download Outlook & open it but I already have Outlook(I have XP home edition 2002 SP3 & Outlook Express 6)
There have been many other faults which I cannot remember right now, I love the phone but I will end up binning it soon if I cannot sort it.
Now heres the problem, I would like to back up all my contacts etc then upgrade my phone but without voiding the warranty. Thing is I have not got a clue where to start.
I have a good basic knowledge of computers but reading the site talking about cooking ROM's etc baffles me a bit.
I need a basic step by step guide to doing this and the best upgrade without voiding the warranty if I can as I have 3-4 months contract left.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you wanna upgrade to any official TMobile ROM for your device, just select one from either official site (TMobile support or HTC support, dunno how you receive support for your device) or you can find it over here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades. If you scroll down on this page you will also find a direct link to Tmobile support.
If that's all you wanna do, then you're good to go as long as you follow the instructions of the RomUpdateUtility (RUU) that comes with the official ROM.
However, if you wanna unlock (which doesn't mean sim unlock) your phone to be able to flash (=upgrade) any ROM (custom, different language, different carrier etc etc), then prepare yourself for a serious piece of reading; everybody on this forum started this way, feeling overwhelmed with information and scared of bricking their phone and voiding warranty. Btw..these links are for GSM devices only. GSM is a device with a sim card, if you don't have a sim card then you have a CDMA device, and that's a differten story at some points.
This is a good way to start:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400402
You have to realize that if you unlock your phone you always gonna void your warranty; luckily there's also a way back to restore to factory settings; more info can be found over here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537496
Before you start doing anything...write on a piece of paper:
- your actual SPL version
- your actual Radio version
- your actual ROM version
Google this forum to find the download links for this stuff and be sure you have those three (original) pieces (of software) stored and safe on your computer, to ensure you can always go back to factory settings.
Hope i gave you a start and good luck!
Oo.... Outlook express isn't the same as Outlook, To be able to sync your device via Activesync you have to have Outlook from Microsoft Office installed on your computer

Darn it, knew there would be something!
Thats great, thanks for your help.
BTW, do you think that the update will cure the receiving calls issue?

Honestly, i have no clue if upgrading would solve your problem; your problems might just as well be hardware related, i really can't say.
My first shot would be an official software update from Tmobile, that indeed you can easily perform yourself, and no warranty issue, cuz it's all official.
And if that wouldn't do the trick, well, if i would have your performance on my diamond i wouldn't hestitate to send it in for repair if it still has warranty. That would be my second shot, cuz i think either Tmobile or HTC will/must do some hard- and software testing before returning the device to you, and if they can't solve the problem via software upgrade they have to perform hardware repair as well.
Can't you get a temporary device from the service center? I still have a almost new Qtek 9100 here for you to borrow at no costs, but i'm not responsible for any back or shoulder damage you get from walking around with that thing
Hi everyone, I just want to inform you guys that LG has taken off the suspension on upgrading GT540 to eclair. I just upgraded my girlfriend's phone to eclair yesterday night. The upgrade went without issues.
I upgraded it in Sweden so I guess it is the european firmware since it has a lot of european languages; I am not sure if it has all though.
Computer says no...
How did you manage to do that? I just tried to update my GF's GT540 yesterday, and it didn't get past the "Downloading" screen.
So at least the update in your beloved eastern neighbor country Finland doesn't work. (Which really sucks, since I'm giving the phone to her as a Christmas present, and was really hoping for saving me the hassle of updating it after she's got all her apps in there...)
Is the software version same for Sweden and Finland?
BTW, this might be a really stupid question, so I guess I'm the right person to ask it: Does the phone need to have the SIM-card in it in order for the update to work? i.e. Does it need to be connected to an operator?
Don't try to update! my got bricked. i start good but just when i starts to update a error window pop up whit many ?????????????????????????????? and the phone only get to boot logo..
sry for bad eng, from sweden....
I don't understand why that happened. I actually updated the phone without any hassle. The phone has not been rooted either.
I left the memory card and the sim card in while updating.
No update in Finland at the moment
I guess the Finnish 2.1 update had some bugs in it, so LG decided to take it down for the time being.
I guess the update will just have to wait for now.
thx
Hello,
I recently bought from AT&T a Samsung Focus S and it came with 7720 OS.
Here is the problems on 7720:
-It doesn't send Images/Photos on Messages (sms/mms)
-It gives a lot of SYSTEM BUSY messages when i try to call someone.
-Sometimes it doesn't send messages.
-I receive SMS 1-2-3 hours LATER when someone send it to me. (it make me crazy...)
Well, i decided to update it manualy to 7740 and 8107.. When i got into the 8107 it stoped calling, when i try to call it closes the app.
I Rolled it Back to 7740 and i got no Samsung Area in the Marketplace...
[Q] Is there anyway to get the STOCK room 7720?
[Q] When AT&T launches the 8107 Update, will I be able to get it? (if it happens...)
[Q] Is this issues normal? Are them related to OS or to HW problem?
[Q] Does it have a way to solve it?
Thanks a lot Friends
Just to say:
I used the Original Roms From Microsoft from this link:
download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/software/dflt/2011/12/diff-7.10.7740.16-7.10.8107.79-armv7-retail-microsoft.pks_c9b7f3bc5bb340ba30473b566b4557de0cf3322e.cab

Hi,
That Link does not work. I would love to flash my Focus S as I have it here in the UK and although unlocked, the device still thinks it's an AT&T Wireless device. So an clean carrier free ROM would be a breath of fresh air for me.
Other than this, everything works, even 4G (I'm on O2 they are the only carrier currenly offering 4G in the UK)

Yeah, for me too buddy.
I'm having a lot of data issues and other things with my phone, like no MMS...
Sometimes i didn't receive a call and can't send messages ...
I'm here, just preying for someone to solve this issues...
The link i posted has only a normal update room from microsoft (i guess) it didn't remove carrier or something like this.
Anyway, hope things get better with this fones, they are really good but have a lot of restrictions...
I have different problem with my Focus.
First it was on stock Window 7 :
Touchscreen sometimes not working, it just stuck where ever area I touch it would not respond
The system lag, when I tried to swap or move between apps it will just freeze
Data connection very often not working, can not load any webpage or sync my email.
===
I thought update to 7.5 would fix those issue, so I plug it to Zune and updated to 7.10.7720
The issues still there...the only way I can fix the issues is to put it into sleep mode (push the power button and push it again) but this is just a temporary fix.
I love this phone but I can't stand it when it freeze alot....It feels like I want to throw it to the wall.....Aaaarrgghhhh.......
Wondering if a clean format and install fresh OS will fix the issues forever?

I'm stuck with this f*ckn device, I'm back to my black berry

I believe you should be in the Samsung Focus forum, this is the forum for the "Focus S" which is a different model.

This is exactly the problem I have! I'm in Canada and I have an unlocked Focus S and I love it. BUT, since it thinks it's an AT&T phone it's always telling me things like "CONNECTION NOT SHARED: To enable tethering on this device, go to [att site] or dial 611" so now I can't even use tethering, even though my carrier (Telus) includes it in my plan.
Any solutions?
Samsung Focus S is an AT&T phone so there's not really a "carrier-free" version. However, try following these instructions here from MrBurrrns to debrand your phone. That should set it to a generic carrier and your phone will even be interop unlocked now from WindowBreak. I'm not sure if your wifi tethering will work though. Please report back!
Hi Team,
I have heard lot about this forum and hope to get some gud suggestions from you guys.
I bought my Samsung Galaxy ace GT-S5830 with android 2.3.6 Gingerbread OS 6 months back but slowly I started facing few problems when my friends noticed and told me that your phone sometimes says switch off.
I also realized that sometimes even if the airtel network is there still i get an error message that mobile network not available I had to switch off the phone to get it normal.
Again people text me but it goes on pending and gets delivered after hours. I showed this problem to the service center they flashed my mobile but the problem persist I also tried changing my sim card but still all in vain. Now i am literally fed up with this phone.
Please assist me I dont know wat to do :crying:
Note: The phone is not rooted.
Thank you
err, are you sure this is because of the phone..? not the network..? because i never face any of the problems you mention..
may be you should try flashing stock rom with newest baseband for your region, find it on sammobile..

He said the service centre guys reflashed the rom. but agree that the sms thing could be network problem.
Faulty battery/pins (Switch offs)
Faulty hardware (Antenna?)
That's all I can identify.
Hi Guys !!!
Thanks for sharing your views
@demiorkan
The mobile automatically does not gets switched off but i need to do it manually as it keeps on prompting the error message "Mobile network not available" though I can see full network on my mobile.
I would really appreciate if I get any suggestions from your side.
Let me know if any more information is required.
If you dont mind you could try flashing another stock rom and see if that works out. If it did not, then it's probably a hardware problem OR the network (as mentioned). Try your SIM card on another phone as well, that should prove if there is problem with the network or not.
Mostly it might be a firmware problem. Service center might not have flashed a new firmware but simply wiped and gave back. (can't be sure on that). So I recommend on using ODIN and flash new firmware. Google is your best friend on this.
Secondly about the network, Turn on flight mode once and turn it off, you'll get the signal. You can even do some debugging by going to the testing menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and toggle the radio and the preferred connection type and stuff. But if the place where you are is such that you get low signal, then don't try any things on phone as it's ultimately the network problem. Trust Me, the place where I stay, I rarely get proper reception and Even I'm on the same network. Flight Mode trick saves the unnecessary reboot.
HELLO! This is my first XDA post, although I've known about it for many years, I never bothered to Log-in and at least participate in the comments part as I always had problems with the login part, finally managed somehow to get into my account.
Anyways, I recently encountered a strange problem with my phone, after about 1 year of use on the same network carrier and after an upgrade from stock rom to Lineage 7.2, and about 5-6 months of working perfectly fine, yesterday after a shutdown due to low battery, my phone started to ask for a Network Unlock Pin and made my phone unusable since I don't have signal and it sometimes shows that my SIM is missing.
I tried installing a new Rom because I thought it would fix it but it didn't, so I was wondering if anyone here has an idea what might have caused it and how to fix this ?! Would really appreciate any kind of help, since I still love my Mini and wouldn't wanna quit on it, Thanks !!
My current plan is to go back to the original Firmware, I'll see what I can find on the internet.
Model : SM-G800M
FCC ID : A3LSNG800M
