All,
Has anyone tried the new 1.12 ROM by Qtek? Is the radio any better?
Thanks
Msuk
I have upgraded my 1.11 version S100 to 1.12 and everything seems fine and unless I am mistaken the device appears to work faster when booting, swapping between menu's and when using applications such as Copilot 5. There also appears to be an accuracy improvement when using the MS voice command software. There appears to be no improvement in the earpeice volume (but I have no complaints about it anyway) and it isnt any worse.
Just as a footnote, the upgrade went without any issue and was as easy to update as my i-mate SP3 and O2 XDA I had before.
Would there be any SMS problem in 1.12 Rom if restore programs and data by Sprite Backup?

Personally I wouldn't have a bloody clue, the only thing I can tell you for sure is that anything you dont save to another location OFF THE S100 will be lost when you upgrade to versionn 1.12
I would guess that anything you are able to back up to either a PC or an SD card can be restored.
I upgraded to 1.12 and no issues, but speaker volume/clarity seems to be better :?

Since when is that a bad thing?
I just ran the get device data and uprade utility of radio rom tytn 1.16 (downloaded from this site/portal only) on my htc magician ( o2 mini with t mobile nl rom ).it shows all the previous rom, radio and ext rom versions plus and at the lower part the new radio version is 1.16 looks like it is upgradeable because BA 1.15 or other versions never went this far also . I just didn't try got little jittery . as it is day day time here in india and if it works or doesn't means loading programs all over again or getting it in the ok shape again with a possible hard reset and i have to go to work with phone and all the functionality . Somebody try and pm me
following is the direct link to download hermes radio 1.16 and it uses the magcian manual upgrade utility image which is included in this only. so here goes
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Extracted_Radio_ROMs/HERM_1.16.0.0_type2_radio.rar
How did it go, anything seem better/worse?
went till about 2% then incompatibility error . i had to flash my earlier rom radio again. earlier I had radio 1.13 radio on tmobile nl 1.13 rom . seemed it made phone warmer and and drain on the battery too. Now I'm going to go with the shipped radio 1.12 with the shipped uk rom .Any thoughts on radio 1.13 i think it was inconsistent . i mean the voice was sharper when there it was then skipped a beat a little after 10 -15 seconds which doesn't make difference in normal conversations on the phone . but it was more prounounced when it was streaming the pocket resco internet radio which breaks the connection and the buffer starts again which is kind on of annoying in my morning or evening jogs/walks and I don't play pre stored mp3 song from sd card as it wiped everything on the sd card after some song sessions . please share your experiences
I've been running 1.13 for a couple of months, and it seems fine. Bluetooth and phone seem pretty good/consistent.
I only ran 1.12 for a week or so, then I saw 1.13, so I can't really compare battery life of the two, but I know 1.13 is doing better then the original ROM, (I think it was 1.06 or 1.10.0)
Please share the experience and comparisions also . and if there is a experience regarding streaming internet radios between radio 1.12 and 1.13. I have already hard reset my phone and not loaded any much programs .Thre is a possibility of flashing again one more time then I'm going to settle for some time .I triead bluetooth A2dp bchs cab installs fine ,someone somewhere I guess modaco.com was that Stereo bluetooth works with only radio 1.13 . but in in shipped 1.122 it shows all the options .I don't stereo bluetooth headset .Going to buy one will somebody help me in giuiding and by answering these above questions
I honestly must say both are almost the same ...but found 1.13 a bit better

you try soft reset your device.
and if "bad radio" show up the screen, you can try update it again or redown new radio file if your file error. normal bootloader is serial/usb.
you can read guide up rom or radio in this forum for magician
first of all: sorry for my poor english!
unfortunately I keep on losing some SMSs.
I have changed different ROM (from the NBD 4... up to the 8.2 that currently I have in use, XDA6 in all the releases...) but the problem persists.
sometimes... not frequently (unfortunately always from a person for me very important) I lose the SMSs: the telephone "revives", illuminates the display green and red buttons... but nothing.... SMS=0
(I have called the person that I imagined had written me and has confirmed me)
I have tried the whole radios: 2.69 (good audio...), 2.61...very fast but bad receipt, 2.47 (I thought the best), 2.37 (original of mine k-jam Italian), 2.25 of T-mob and finally the 2.19.. from all declared the best... but with a bad audio according to me.
Any idea?
with a downgrade to WM5 the problems seem to disappear....
Please, help.... i love WM6....
i think its not bcuz of wm6 !
you RESET your phone without any reason ! if you RESET your phone , all incoming data will be lost !
so try shutting down your phone by pressing and holding the power botton and this problem probably will be gone
Tau,
This is a confirmed problem with WM6, if you search around you'll find the T-Mobile Radio ROM and CIngular Radio ROM threads where people outline some of the issues they've been having and the fixes they've tried and gotten to either work or fail. I'd just reccomend either switching back to AKU 3.3 or just keep trying different radios.
That's a radio issue, the only ones that seem to work consistently is Farias version of 2.69 or 2.19. The non faria version of 2.69 still seems to have that problem, at least for me it did.
thanks...i'll try faria's one

No problem. The easiest way to figure out if a radio is going to work for you is to hook your phone up to activesync and then call yourself or text yourself while it's connected. If the the send and end lights come on but you don't recieve the call or sms it's time to flash a different radio rom. Call yourself or text yourself a few times to make sure because you may just get lucky and it recieves the call or sms the first time or 2.
hi all!
ever since i got my vox ive been experiencing problems like this.
it only happens sometime and its difficult to reproduce. but problem is as follow..
people send me sms's (sometimes quite alot) and on their phone it just say pending. then if they phone me or just give me a miss call i recieve all the smses at once. but sometimes even when they try to phone me it goes to voice mail. my phone always have full signal during all of this. most of the time im experiencing this problem is when im using my phone as a gprs modem for my pc. i need to know if i should take the phone back or what? but how can i proof ive got this problem? i even updated phone to latest radio and still got problem. any help or suggestions pse!
I am not sure but I think the sms thing happens with my device also, but I have no idea how that could be possible.
?
What Radio versions do you have? If older upgrade to 4.1.13.54_03.10.90
I was on version 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 for some time
but i found the earlier version to be more stable.
just a personal experience.
but i guess i'll give 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 a second shot.

thanx i found ur link on another thread some time ago and i upgraded my radio. but its been 2weeks now and no improvement. my previous radio was something like x.x.34_xx.xx.xx or so. but yes, i do however think that i get better signal. cos on old radio when phone was on my desk it was 90% signal acording to the signal icon on home screen. now its 100. another thing about vox is when u type with qwerty ur hand blocks the antenna weakning the signal. kinda stupid as in most phone manuals they say u shouldnt put ur hand over the antenna area while in call or sms. haha!
but pse any ideas r welcome! im gonna use my sim in another phone for a bit to see if problem is with my sim or phone
Damn.
I have the same problem, most boring one.
Time after time, the phone stops receiving phone calls (line busy if you are calling me, I cant call because the green button doesn't do anything if i press it after I type the number or choose the contact) and some other times SMS messages. I keep the Vox close to my speakers and they make the sound like when you are receiving call/sms (can't describe it, but i think you get me) but nothing happens. And after 2 hours people call me and complain why I didn't reply to their SMS...
If someone finds what is the problem and solution to it I will be thankfull to him/her untill my Vox is alive.
Many options with new ROMs are great thing. But if the SP doesn't do it primary duty (make & receive calls and SMS messages) it's worthless.
I have it tested with 3 ROMs and the problem apeared with every one and each of them.
The default one, don't know the version. The radio was earlier version than 4.1.13.54_03.10.90.
Then I tryed 6.1 v1.0a of Dr. Gonzo.
And now I have for 3 days the 6.1 v1.1. At least once I noticed that problem with this, latest, version.

i dont think u got exactly the same problem. cos whenever im not receiving sms or calls for a while then when i make a call or send a sms all my msgs deliver to me at one time. so what im trying to say is that i am indeed able 2 make calls all the time. i think ur problem mite b caused by a 3rd party app on ur phone? btw i had my problem with original rom, guava rom, 6.1a and im downloading 6.1 v1.1 now. but i can tell u its gonna b the same. its not a rom based issue.
Hello
I've this probleme too,
Exemple : I power on the phone at 9h00, that all, and at 11h00 i would like to call a friend, phonebook-->frient-->call mobile and i press the green button it doesn't do anything. Impossible to call someone
I press the voicemail button : no result.
I must reboot.
Exemple 2 : I do anything my friend call me, my phone is power on, good reception, -->He have voicemail !!
I must reboot..

what radio version and rom are u using? any 3rd party apps that mite interfere with ur call button etc?
PLEASE people lets all give our radio version and rom versions etc so we can pinpoint this problem. it seems that quite a few people are actually experiencing this problem and they dont even realise it.
it does seem that the vox gets in a type of a bottleneck with sms and calls. all ur smses gets jammed and then as soon as i send a sms it blasts open the jam and lets my sms's thru. no point in talking to service provider customer care as they are all idiots

My radio version is : 4.1.13.54_03.10.90
My rom version is Wm6.1 v1.1 : 5.2.19195 (build 19202.1.0.0)
I have just R66mobile7, but i don't think it interfere with my call button
Same problem for me even with the last version of the radio...
I had the same problem with the original rom after installing native voip but no problem with hard reboot without installing native voip on the original rom.
On this morning, I made a hard reboot and didn't install my voip settings only to see...
I will let u know if there are some changes...
I have some problem. Hard reset one day ago .. and till now everything work well.
Did you install your voip settings when you encoutered the problems ?
no route 66 wont interfere. i was thinking more along the lines of smart toolkit etc. it does seem like u got same problem. im read on another thread that the arabic version radio mite be better. so go check on the vox wiki and test the arabic radio. its the second newest version. im gonna try it 2. wil let u know
i never used voip before. but i do however notice if i use my phone as a gprs modem for an hour or so, then i usually send a sms to my gd and all her smses deliver at the same time. now, seeing as voip uses the gprs connection 2. it does seem that the problem is related to gprs being used. my guess is that it has to do with the fact that when u are using ur gprs and someone phones or sms u thru gsm connection ur gprs is supposed to cut out, a gsm connection gets esstablished, and when the connection terminates, ur gprs connection re connects again. now we need to find out if this happens with other devices using voip. and please test it with ur devices also. (while connected with gprs and using voip see if sms deliver to u)

i will test with the arabic radio, and my voip setting.
result tomorrow.
i just u.dated to 6.1 v1.1 and installed the arabic radio. everything seems to b working fine. ill let u know as soon as i experience my first problem
nope! no luck. i just disconnected from my internet sharing app. i send a sms, and 3 smses delivered to me that should have came thru 30mins ago! damn. gonna try another radio now. if this doesnt work i tried all the radio versions on the wiki. and i honestly dont know how to fix the problem.
anyone know what the difference is between chap and pap authentication in gprs settings? and in csd line type settings.. should it b transparent or not transparent. any one can tell me the difference and if this could probably make a difference?
lastly, can i ask if anyone that is certain they not experiencing this problem can maybe tell me what their csd line settings are?
after hard reset i installed myvoipsetting too ... still work perfect.
i think prob is solved with simply hard reset
ok im happy for u! i did hard reset but still had problem. pse let me know once u experience this problem again. in the meantime i changed my csd line type to transparent. no problems so far... i guess i was thinking that transparent wouldnt block as much sms and calls as non transparent! hehe! will let u know. pse will u check ur csd line settings 2? its under start/settings/csd line type/connection element
I've recently upgraded my O2 xda ii mini from WM2003 to Cotulla's WM6.5, and Radio 1.13
Everything's OK but except:
Whenever my battery drop down below 60%, it will display no signal at all, no service... And when click con Phone, Phone Setting, Sim Manager... It'll pop up: "The phone is not ready, wait 15 sec" => Then wait all day long with no result... (If I plug the charge, everything'll be fine)
I bought a new battery, and still not works...
And I don't know why, now, even the battery indicator gone mad... Always 0%, charging, when the phone running smoothly...
Sorry for my bad English.
How can I solve those problems now?
Hi,
are you sure you have radio 1.13?
So long,
MrFX
can you post some screenshots of Device Information and Phone Settings.? so that we can diagnose properly. . .
I don't know how to take a screenshot on my PDA, but I'll write it down...
Device Infomation:
ROM version: 3.06.00 WWE
ROM date: 25/12/09
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version:1337.43
ExtROM version: <Nothing>
And Phone Setting:
Well, my network, I set to auto, not work, then I set to manual, but still can't solve...
Hi,
how the hell you've installed this rom with radio 1.13? If i tried this, there was a bad radio error...
Please try the radio 1.12 like described on cotullas site:
*You must have installed 1.12 or 3.00+ radio.

I've installed radio 1.13 first... Then install that ROM, and they're still work OK if battery is over 60%...
How do I down grade to 1.12? The 1.12 installer always said that the cable is disconnect...

Hi,
is it an old or a new battery?
I had also some problems with my older bat, it shows always a good status, but i was not able (with full bat) to flash any new ROM to the Magician, and sometimes the Phone was going down.
After i replaced the battery with a new one, the Magician works very well.
So long,
MrFX
Sorry, both the old one and the new one brought no good result...
Hi,
do you have the same problem with WM 2003 (now)?

Ah yes... I think that's hardware problem
And another problem is:
Now my O2 will not sound anything out when receive a message or a phone call if PDA is off (it still vibrate though). If it's on, it sounds normally...
I don't know what the heck is going on... Everythings works fine before I flash the WM6.5 in... Even now I flash back to WM2003... It still screwed up...
are you sure you have downgraded to 1.12 wm2003se.?
if you still have that same problem, try to change network provider or change SIM, maybe you have a network bandwidth problem.
check the antenna pads if it's tightly intact, if there still no luck, you better find a technician.
ohh i forgot, the last time you upgraded your device did you use and run this file.? MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe if yes, then you should not be having problems with your network cause that file helps fix country id error.
Yes I did...
I tried another SIM from a different Provider, but no hope.
I cleaned the antenna, still the same.
Try a different battery. Nothing happen (still below 60% and no services).
Now, if some one call me or SMS, it has no sound at all, unless the PDA is turned on (that means the screen still show Windows menu, not black).
The Cotulla's WM6.5, the virtual keyboard: Sometimes the Delete or the Backspace key doesn't work at all, and I have to reboot.
If I press a hard button, it will show a message box said the short cut is invalid.
If I flash WM2003, then, I can't turn off the device by the side button. I must set it auto turn off after 1 min.
My country have no such technician for me to ask. Just a bunch of liars... ^^
May be it's too old, and I have to buy a new one.

before you buy a new one, do first an experiment so that we can corner the problem, you must downgrade to the original rom, just ignore the turn off button, i think it can be tweak in the registry.
follow this steps, this is my way of downgrading.
1.) download this rom http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Magician/MA_O2Asia_11200_920_11200_Ship.exe
2.) extract those files in a folder. (any folder name you like, use winrar.)
3.) run the file ROMUpgradeUt.exe
4.) download and save this file inside the folder where you extracted the files in step 1. http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Magician/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe after you downloaded it, run it.
5.) follow the onscreen instruction until your done flashing.
observe your device if it still have the same problem.
I did try as you suggest...
The same problem... Nothing changed... And even still no sound when the PDA is "sleeping"...
I don't know what to do with this "thing" now...

maybe you have a hardware problem. let them check by a technician. cotulla's rom works fine on my device. no problem encountered so far.
