ProblemS with my Tornado - HTC Tornado

Does any of you feel this? Once a while, I can see that the the network operator will change to "Searching" then "Home Network" and then back to my service provider's name. Sometime, it happens when I am receiving a call, and the call will be dropped and will be considered a missed call. The other party will think that my phone ran out of battery as they are directed to the voicemail.
I also have this problem, sometimes when I call out, the ringing tone that I hear is distorted, this is not the speaker problem as even with loudspeaker, the sound its the same, the tone pitch is high and distorted, even when the other party speaks, their voice are distorted and high pitch. It's like when you play a DVD movie with fast speed, the speech becomes "cartoon-ish"
The problem resolves only if I reboot my phone, does this got to do with my phone or the radio ROM?
Even after reflashing the phone with the same original firmware, the problem persist. Another friend of mine using the same phone which he bought together with me complained the same problem at times.
FYI, I am using Dopod 577w installed with AKU2 patch
ROM version : 2.0.11.0
Operator version : 2.5.39.2
Radio version : 4.1.13.15_02.29.01

i get this too
ive put it down to just crap radio rom on the stock aku2 update from vodafone

which one do you get, the line dropping or the distorted sound when calling ?

yea i thought it was just me having this crazy thing going on... the carrier changes to display "HOME SERVICE" the back to its name... tho i never experienced it the call dropping and stuff...

carrier changes just before a call or txt msg
doesnt drop though

Try radio 2.61.01. On my Qtek8310 I install this radio and have no such kind of problem like you have.

I've attached an older radio version. I am using this with rom version 2.0.9.0. The radio that came with that ROM didn't seem to work well (had similar problems to what you describe, and others), at least in the US with Cingular service. This radio, (1.14.00) seems to do quite well. I am trying to extract the radio ROM from the latest cingular 2125 ROM (2.0.13.0), but haven't had any luck.

Radio 1.14.00 - from ROM for what platform did you get it? Maybe it is NOT previous, but NEWER one
By the way - PLEASE, reload this file to other service! iFolder, slil, ets...

What about some of the latest radio ROMS? going backward doesnt seem right ot me
Any stable and good radio rom? What do you guys think about the Radio rom from QTEK -radio 2.61.01
and btw, what's the difference between Operator version and Radio version as in my first post?

Mirror to Radio 01.14.00: http://zlydengl.files-upload.com/217114/radio_01_14_00.rar.html
Works fine! But - still testing

Your link is null

zyldenGL--good question!! I have no idea what ROM it was from originally, but it works great.
karhoe--I tried the link that I posted, and it works.

Lost SMS. WM6 issue? ..any idea?

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.

recipient audio sounds like it's coming from space shuttle (fix on page 2)

I am having an issue where the person I call states that I sound like I'm calling them from the space shuttle. I had someone call me on a landline from my MDA and it actually does sound like a NASA shuttle call.
I've applied the registry edit for AUDIOGAIN:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN]
"EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
"RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN0]
"EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
"RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN1]
"EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
"RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN2]
"EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
"RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME"=hex:CC
The problem is present with handset, BT headset, and wired headset. Anything else I should be looking at? I'm on TMO USA, but I roam on AT&T and EinsteinPCS. Problem crosses all networks. The only thing I haven't tried yet is putting an AT&T sim in and see if it's still there. I don't really think that would be the problem since I can put my sim in my Nokia 6230 and it sounds fine.
Running mfrazzz's XM6r2a. Original TMO 2.26.10.2 has same result. Tried 2.19, 2.25 (TMO OEM), 2.40, 2.69 radios. 2.25 seems the best of them all for me. Signal sucks, but call quality is about the best.
Any direction would be appreciated!
yo
dude that's like an added bonus no? you can use that to your advantage say you've went into the space program
seriously though i've tried them all (i'm on ATT) and I stick to 2.25 here in the middle of the USA, I get full bars just about everywhere, i've no doubts that each radio rom has different traits with physical location as well.
Sorry, forgot to mention that when I do have full bars in major cities, the sound quality does not improve.
same problem with me... any ideas?

Can you elaborate a little more on "YOUR" situation. ROM version, radio version, what you have done...
Went back to original TMO 2.26.10.2 and problem disappears. Copied audiogain settings and went back to XM6r2a. Still no go. I am using the same radio, 2.25.11 as in the TMO 2.26.10.2.
Is there a thread about all the reg keys that deal with the phone/radio?
When I search on phone & radio, it brings up everything but what I'm looking for.
Moderators: Is there a way to have the system not search signatures? Many users have "Radio:" in their signature and it seems like it is pulling on that also. I have been searching each sub-forum individually and it seems like I'm getting at least 1000 hits per search. Also, I show posts, not threads. Thanks!

Have you tried having someone call you on a land line to see if it's just quiet, warbly, or cut's in and out?

Same problem here. The most frustrating part is the audio on my end sounds fine and is intermittent on the recipients end. Friends tell me it's so bad I should throw out my cheap phone! I've tried 2.19, 2.25 and 2.69 with various 6.0 roms (XDA, TNT, Black Diamond and others) applied Cingular radio hacks and still have the problem. I had to send back the phone for an unrelated reason and it's the same with the replacement. It doesn't seem to be signal strength related and can come and go during a conversation. I don't think it happens with the stock rom but it's so painful to use I've only had it loaded for a few hours. Went back to 2.25 and applied the audiogain hacks above. Will let you know how it goes.
Problem solved... at least for me
Going through the registries of both TMO 2.26.10.2 and 5.2.318's, I found that the GSM codec is being replaced with MSG711. I'm assuming Microsoft's implementation of G.711, probably to support VOIP as well. Since I pulled VOIP when I customized mfrazzz's rom, it's not a concern for me.
I'm assuming that the people who aren't having problems are on a completely EDGE network, where I'm still on many GPRS towers. I don't think that directly has an implication; however, I'm sure providers have greater bandwidth going to towers that handle EDGE, thus the EDGE tower is less likely to go to full capacity, and can handle extra bandwidth.
GSM Codec: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-GSM+Codec
G.711 Codec: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.711
Below are the reg fixes that helped me. I flashed TMO 2.26.10.2, then my modified mfrazzz, then applied the reg fixes. Echoing and Deathstar-spaceshuttle voice on the other end has disappeared, and I only had one bar with radio 2.25.11. Haven't tried other radio's yet, and not sure I will for a little while until I know this solved the problem.
Hope this helps!
Reg Fixes:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\07]
"Hnd"=dword:0003EBC0
"Name"="ACM1:"
"Key"="Drivers\\BuiltIn\\CODEC_GSM610"
"BusParent"=dword:00032400
"InterfaceType"=dword:00000000
"BusName"="BuiltInPhase1_0_43_0"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\CODEC_GSM610]
"Flags"=dword:00000002
"Order"=dword:00000000
"Index"=dword:00000001
"Dll"="gsm610.acm"
"Prefix"="ACM"
looks like it work, i just chang the registry like you say and i think that works
im going to reflash the phone and see what the other people say
tks a lot
*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
In the reg key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\07]
07 is the location under Active where it sits for "ME" after loading my modified mfrazzz and using radio 2.25.11 that's there from the TMO 2.26.10.2 original install. When I applied 2.69.11 for testing, it moved to 02. It moved the contents completely; however, if you apply the reg fix and it's not at 07, it won't solve your problem.
Good rule of thumb would be to check this registry entry manually to verify its location, make any adjustments if needed, then run the fix.

problems started when changed network operator

Hi, I've been using Uni with BL+ and Radio 1.17 quite a while and it worked good, but after I switched my operator to Orange PL i have noticed that my device often hangs, even on incoming call, making it impossible to answer, mainly the phone module seems to work ungood and hangs the whole unit... what can I do? Should I flash my radio to another one?
(Videocall doesn't work either, it worked with my previous operator.)

random no sound issue

I became a couple of weeks ago the happy owner of a HTC Cruise bought with a personalized WM 6.0 Orange RO firmware. Unfortunately I had the great disappointment to discover that from time to time, even two or three times a day, the sounds disappear, I mean all of them – the voice of the caller, alarms, notifications, no matter if the device is on or in stand by. That happens with no apparent reason, in different times, even while I am speaking with a caller – so, while I am talking with somebody, all of a sudden the phone's sounds disappear - I am speaking but I am not hearing the voice of my caller who keeps talking with me. On other occasions, my wife or other persons call me, but because the phone doesn’t ring in my pocket, I am unaware it's ringing and I don't know I have to pick it up and answer.
Whenever it happens and I notice the issue, I soft-reset the device and the sound returns, but after a few hours the problem reappears.
I must confess that I didn't use the original rom at all, as soon as I got it, I upgraded to a a newer rom, at that time deciding on a pdaviet 6.5 ROM, using the recommended radio. Thinking it might be a ROM problem, I hoped switching to an official firmware would solve the problem, so at the moment I am using the official 6.1 firmware (I think it comes with it's own radio). The issue remains.
The only thing that remained constant is the hard spl - could that have anything to do with it??
Any ideas?
I doubt it's Hard SPL issue... too many users (with very various ROMs), and not a common problem.
It could be some software, since problem is not constant. Does problem repeat if using "naked" ROM - meaning, no additional programs installed?
so simple
Great idea! It was so simple it didn't even cross my mind. And you are right, it could be an explanation, considering there is ton of installed programs. I'll do a clear storage and keep you posted.
thanks!
I had de same problem. I beleave it is the radio. Now I have V.1.59.42.15 and it works fine.
I'm not sure...

I have (and had) the same version of radio, because that's included in the official htc wm6.1 rom.
Right now I'm testing the pda without any additional software installed, and up to this point I haven't noticed the audio bug. I'll wait some more and see
Nice.
Check my list of installed programs.
I have NO audio, BT or GPS problems at all...
i have the same problem with wm 6.5 roms. when i install any 6.5 rom. my polaris goes to silent.. then i reinstall any 6.1 rom it works fine..
Try other WM 6.5 ROM... if you have to...
Same problem here, with 6.1 roms bepe's one an the oficial of movistar (here in spain).
And no other adicional programs instaled. (except TomTom)

HTC Touch Pro loudspeaker problem

Hey friends ;]
have a problem, just bought my first smart phone and it was TP1, phone is new, newer used. Found some problems with loudspeaker, when i'm using it when talking with friend by phone(gsm conn) after about 3-5minutes(phone goes hotter) and starts that from loudspeaker there is no sound, but when i push icon to turn on earspeaker and then back to loudspeaker the sounds backs but for a while to loudspeaker(there is no problem i think with earspeaker), so in this case i can't hear normally, because after 3min the sound from loudspeaker crashes.
The same problem appears when i'm using wifi and youtube app to watch some videos from the web, after couple of minutes the sound starts crashing, and i can return sound only when I try to stop video for a few seconds and then turn play button again.
Playing video and music from the phone memory doesnt occur this kind of problem.
Also some times observe that keyboard doesnt work, after slide out, but dont know is this reffered to this problem, maybe it's normal
Tried to flash roms, arrived with german vodafone original, then htc WWE(quite similar to german), and now using vodafone UK original rom
5.10.161.1 1.14.25.05 52.63.25.34U
but problem stil exist.
Please give me some advice! p.s. sorry for my english..
Probably hardware if you have flashed other ROMs & issue still exists.
What HardSPL are you using ? you could try the ROM in my signature & the radio version & if issue persists try getting a replacement unit if possible.
Thanks for you reply!
I have used HardSPL:
RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_1_90_3
A couple hours ago i tried to downgrade rom from new one
5.10.161.1
1.14.25.05
52.63.25.34U UK vodafone WWE
to old one
1.90.707.4
with leving rom radio and protocol
1.14.25.05
52.63.25.34U from UK vodafone WWE
and after hour of trying to watch broadcast and talking, problem not appear. So i don't know is that fixed my phone, but now it looks like it does, but i will test it more in the future.
One more question, when talking and using loudspeaker, there should be the sound of GSM signal comes through speaker? The simple Gsm phone with loudspeaker don't have so obvious sound of that.
