it is very detail for solved your problem.
if you can not read it ,told me ,i can help you.
Hi Spinny, I'm not sure if this is right but I think the prophet is not a 3G phone ( which uses the UMTS connection) but is a 2G phone running on GSM. Your phone is probably unlocked and able to use sims from T mobile ,Orange ,O2 and Vodafone etc.
As far as I know , 3G phones run on UMTS when there is an available connection but will switch to GSM when the UMTS not available. Therefore it connects to your Orange network and works but you will be getting billed by 3 network and you wouldn't be able to use video calling.Hope that helps. There is a lot of info here too http://www.pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=456&view=1
My dad has an At&T tilt (htc kaiser). He unlocked it and we are trying to get it to work in Israel with a cellcom sim card. The sim card in my phone is working in his phone, but the new sim he bought for his phone only works in a slvr l6 we have. On the kaiser, the sim is recognized, but it won't connect to the cellcom network (it does with my cellcom sim card). Do you think upgrading the rom would help the problem (he still has the original rom that came with it from at&t, and he has paid them and unlocked it) and if so, which ROM for the kaiser have you found to be the best for you. If I flash it, will it work fine in the US and in Israel, etc? Now that it is unlocked, is it for good even after reflashing it? If you don't think the rom is the problem, do you have any other suggestions as to why one specific sim would only work in one phone? All suggestions are welcome!!!
ok first thing the rom has nothing to do with that flashing it wont help, what you need to find out is what band that company uses and then select the ban from your phone and that will allow the phone to work if it still dont pick up ur phone wasnt unlock properly, remember it takes a little time to pic up its not as quick as the other phones. If you still choose to flash ur phone you need to read some of the threads first and make up ur mind based on the comments made. but personaly they all are good to me some have a few ups and down but nothing major or you can use the orginal rom posted by dutty a few days ago its stable.
Thanks for the response. This is the weirdest problem I have ever encountered, because my phone (an l6) uses the same sim from the same company (cellcom) and my sim card works perfectly in the kaiser. The new sim card does not work in my l6 OR his kaiser, but works in my mom's cheapie unlocked phone and another (a bit newer) l6 (same model phone!) that we have with us. So connecting to the network is not the problem, as the kaiser does that with my sim in it. But with the new sim in it, the kaiser refuses to connect to the cellcom network. I have no idea where to go from here. Why does it work in one l6 and not another? Why my old one work in my l6 AND his kaiser, but the new sim works in neither? All help is greatly appreciated!!
ok guys ....i have been having this strange problem with 3g...im in nyc and edge works fine but as soon as i get in to a 3g area i lose all service?right now im on duttys new rom and i have tried almost all the 6.1 radios..the settings r on auto ...when i disable 3g in com manager the edge works fine...I want 3g(or i would have bought a iphone)....someone please help...
thanx
Did this issue just start since Dutty's rom? Or did it happen with other roms as well?
it has happened with the last couple of 6.1 dutty roms...
Have you tried the 2 radios that were ripped from the Polaris? They have been the best for me on WM 6.1 roms.
yes i tried one forgot which one .....but ill try both tomorrow night....dont have my laptop with me today....this is just strange...like i said edge works fine as soon as i get into a 3g area i lose service...and if i get lucky and do have service i have no internet service but when i try to go to a website ill lose service again?allways set my internet connection to allways on if that makes a difference.....thanx for trying to help
Is your SIM one of the new AT&T branded 3G chips? I remember reading a while back that the older Cingular 3G chips can stop working on the 3G network as they age... something about the coding on the chip becoming corrupted with age.
If the radios don't help, I would try replacing your SIM.
ya tried just about every 6.1 radio last night and same thing edge fine but 3g no go.My sim says att on it cant remember if iv had it since the hermes....but i guess ill try a new sim card...again thanx so much for ur help.
ill report back once i get a new sim card.
just as an fyi, when I upgraded to my tilt, the woman at the store said that all the Cingular Sim cards are being phased out. I then asked about the people in my office with the AT&T simcards that are older and she said that it was just the Cingular emblem cards that they were phasing out. Don't know if its just the pretty branding or not, just what she told me.
I bought an Orange branded TyTn II last week from CEX in excellent condition for £90. I used to have the Vario III variant but always preferred the sleeker look of the HTC variant.
It had WM6.1 on already so i ran the HardSPL and SIM/CID unlocked the device. Everything was fine and all was well, put in my o2 sim to check it was unlocked. The following day i flashed the Shaps WM6 Pro 4.30 WWE ROM and everything was fine again. Put my sim in and used it for texts, installed Tomtom 7 etc, HSDPA and net is all working ok on it and so is the GPS for Tomtom.
I recieved a phonecall but when i answered it it was dead, completely silent. They couldn't hear me either so i'm wondering if there's a solution to this?
Do i need to update the radio rom?
I'd not made a call on it until after i flashed the rom so cant guarantee it worked before hand although i'm sure CEX would have checked it before putting it for sale.
Any help greatly appreciated, cheers

Yes, you need to re-flash the Radio ROM.
Please post any further problems in the flashing guide by mskip.

Hi all, I have a o2 xda orbit which will not work as a phone. It will find the network manually but when you try to phone it attempts to connect, there is approx 30s of quiet and then 3 beeps and the connection ends. When I bought the phone second hand I was told it was unlocked but it doesn't work on any network. I currently have a new O2 sim in it and still nothing.
I have tried flashing the rom with O2's official rom and still nothing. On startup I have the following
IPL 3.0.4.0001
SPL 3.0.4.0000
GSM 02.67.98
OS 3.4.0.0
Is my phone a brick? Or can I fix it?
Many thanks in anticipation of your help.
