HI i have a MDA Compact and upgraded from 1.11 qtec rom to 1.12 with bigstore patch applied. The phone seem to be fine but some times when i go to make a call it does'nt seem to dial just sits there saying dialing. If I hang up and leave the phone for 5 mins it seems to go back to normall.
Signal strength is fine, 4 bars & i am calling a landlline thats not engaged.
Would upgrading the radio stack help? Is there a guide on how to do this.
Thanks in advance

I have an unlocked SDA on a Cingular Blue Account with the White ATT SIM. I am frequently missing calls (no rings) and receive no voicemail or missed call indicators for the calls. It does not happen all the time, and my attempts to replicate the problem have been unsuccessful. My phone is not overclocked and the problem is not limited to times when I am using GPRS data.
I am using the i-mate rom and radio update:
Operator Version: 2.6.331.2
Radio Version: 4.1.13.19_02.37.01
Any ideas?
Hey,
I was having the same problem after I upgraded the radio. I have switched back to radio version 4.0.13.25_01.14.00 and have not had any problems.
qtek 8300
rom version 2.0.9.0
operator version 2.6.311.1
Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad someone else had this problem and was able to solve it. I'm very surprised I haven't found any documented occurences of this problem with so many people changing ROMs. I bought the phone used, and it came locked with the T-Mobile ROM. I updated the ROM right after unlocking it, so I don't know if the missed call problem existed with the original ROM. However, I have now switched to the Cingular ROM and it appears to be working better. I guess I'll have a better idea if it's completely fixed in a few days.
rom version 2.0.13.0
operator version 2.8.42.22
radio version 4.1.13.12_02.25.01
i want to keep it constant on, like i had on wm5.
Start - Settings - System - registry wizard - tweaks3 -GPRS Always ON
that eliminates most of the reconnects but not all of them.
that doesn't work.
i'm using a tracking software and to get the LAC and the CID for the cell that i'm into the connection has to drop. when i used faria's AKU3.3 with crossbow icons i used that tweak and it worked on WM6 doesn't

It depends on what radio you are using. The only radio that I know of that will not cause GPRS connection issues is 2.19. Anything higher than that has problems reconnecting to GPRS if you lose signal.
The problem is that 2.19 doesn't have coverage as good as the other radios. Someone is working on a fix for the 2.61 radio stack with Faria. the thread is over in the Wizard upgrading forum.
No problem 2.61
I have 2.61 Radio ROM and no Problem. Imedeatelly I disconnect phonecall, GPRS is reconnecting. Very fast. German T-Mobile settings. And no problem. Using octratalk and have no problems beeing connected to googletalk, icq and msn.

You are lucky then. It seems most people trying to run 2.61 on any of the WM6 ROMs have issues. I put it on MBE version and immediately had missed calls and SMS message (yes, coverage was excellent, and very quick to acquire GPRS connection and all, but calls would go straight to VM for no reason one time, and come through the next). Never had this issue with 2.61 on AKU 3.3 or stock 2.25 ROMs.
I also put it on Faria's WM6 ROM and had a similar experience. Not even trying 2.61 on the mUn ROM.
Just got a new Touch Cruise and I just cant seem to receive calls or SMS when the phone is in sleep mode.
I tried putting the 3G off and all data communication off. Still same problem.
Phone works fine when turned on.
After it resumes from sleep mode i can see "No Network" message and immediately reconnects to the network. Signal is only one bar where as in my K-JAM i have no issues. weak
Anyone face similar problem ?
My ROM is 1.28.415.2 wwe 02/22/08
Radio is 1.58.25.14
protocol 25.69.30.05w

What do you mean with sleep mode?
When my phone need to establish connection I need to enter my password.
With respect to your signal, do you refer to G or 3G?
By just pressing the power button once or after the time out in battery mode, the screen is put in sleep mode. I have not set any passwords.
After this I cannot receive any calls or SMS even if i put off all Data Communications, Wifi, 3G, GPRS. When i dial from another phone, I just hear a dead tone and does not go to voicemail either.
When i resume, i can see the message "Service Unavailable" breifly and the phone reconnects to the provider. I can make and receive calls then as long as the phone screen is on.
I have reflashed it twice but the same issue remains.
It is not a network issue as the problem is not there on my K-JAM.
It also can be a hardware flaw... I suggest restore the original ROM, bootloader and take it back...

Think i will do that. It is on the original ROM and the phone is just a day old. Guess it is my bad luck.
I wondered if it is just WM6 problem and required some sort of registry hack to keep connection alive in standby mode or something like that..
Thanks guys.
Gave the Cruise to the dealer Cellucom and they confirmed after 4 days that the board is bad. Got a warranty replacement with the option to take the Tytn II instead. Grabbed it. Guess i have to jump to the Kaiser forum now. Ciao.
Hi Guys,
I have just replaced my trusty Wizard (running Wizard Love ROM WM5 and working great on Orange UK) due to me damaging the external antenna plug which caused the whole phone to cease receiving a signal
I bought myself a replacement Wizard that has WM6.1 Pro ROM on it with HTC Touch Flo. I put my Orange SIM into it and cannot do much else now other than send & receive phone calls - no SMS, no GPRS, also cannot access the "phone" icon under the settings menu or even access the "SIM Manager" either.
Any ideas anybody? I suspect the Orange SIM myself!!
Many thanks in advance.
Mike.
Maybe your sim card is damaged in some strange way?
I'm not sure - the SIM works great in my other Wizard running WM5. In fact I had this same problem with my other unlocked Wizard, and it was only after changing to the "Wizard Love" ROM that it was sorted out.
I have read that it may be that the radio ROM needs updating - I don't really know.
I suspect there are other UK users out there on the Orange network who have WM6.1 running OK.
Cheers,
Mike.
Better check your SIM card in other phone for reliability ;] cheers
I have and the SIM works fine.
Although the OS is upgraded over what was on my previous Wizard, it would appear that the IPL/SPL and GSM are older versions on my replacement phone. Is it possible to upgrade these without affecting the WM6.1 install??
Cheers,
Mike.
After a lot of reading I seem to have now sorted out the problem.
I flashed a new radio ROM from 02.07.10 to 03.02.11. I put the SIM card back in and found I had a number of voicemail messages and SMS's waiting for me. No changes to any settings and I can now access SIM Manager etc, etc
I'm just happy that I'm back in communication!!
Well, further to the above I cannot now access GPRS or the MMS service.
I have tried all the GPRS settings from my older Wizard and flashed different Radio ROM's on my replacement Wizard. Now on Radio ROM 02.19.11 as I did read this seems the best one for the UK.
Anybody else on here use Orange (UK) for GPRS or MMS, and has it working so I can see where I'm going wrong??
Thanks in advance.
Mike.
I've done a lot of reading and had a play...seems to work now. I even have the "E" symbol on screen, so I'm getting an EDGE connection now that is a first!!
I was using CR86 Touch HD Cruise Edition, so I flashed XDA2's WM6.5 M2D ROM onto it instead. This then automatically picked up a GPRS/EDGE connection, but I could not access the SIM...I got the "the phone is not ready, wait 15 secs etc,etc" message. I then flashed the Radio ROM from 2.19.11 and took it up to 2.69.11 (I have previously tried 03.02.11, 02.37.11, 02.25.11, 02.19.11 to no avail)
Seems to work OK, I have sent & received a MMS messages & standard SMS now.
I just need to set up my email & sync my contacts (again)
Hi,
I have noticed that the switch between GPRS and HSDPA does not work good if i receive a call. Lately it has happend often, that phone calls only last a few seconds and then the connection fails. I normaly have medium signal strenght and the "H" in the statusbar and after the short phonecall the "G". When I call back the phonecall works fine. The ROM is Fallout and the Radio 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20_M. I'm in Germany and use the vodafone-network with 1+1.
Would a radio update help? When yes the one to 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 or the virtous-rom one(that update-file contains more elements are they all needed or just the radio.img?).
Has someone expirienced the same issue?
Thanks alot!
Seems like either a radio issue or a simcard problem.. Had the same disconnecting calls isuue as you and turned out that the sim itself was the culprit. Try having the sim replaced at your operator and if that doesn't work you can do a radio upgrade. I'm currently on the virtuous leaked radio and it worked wonders for me in terms of reception and battery life also so i recommend it..
