does anybody get their text message late a lot? especially when the phone is off, and if so, does anybody know how to fix this? thanks a lot
me too, I thought it was my network. I'm with UK T-Mobile, and you?
I'm on O2 UK, and always receive messages straight away. Sorry.
it happens in roaming? for that i set the network to manual, since with automatic mode, would handover Provider depending the signal strengh. and might some sms be lost until you handover to that network again
if it happens, while you are not in roaming, then your provider should have something to say....
well i'm on the US t-mobile but my friend is on sprint and it happens to him too...I didn't have a problem with this til I switch from the n95 to the touch cruise, same with him switching from upstage to the sprint touch so I thought maybe it was just windows mobile or something. I don't know, if anyone has a legit solution to this problem, please please let me know, i got a text message about 4 hours late today

I've tried several resets, I even restored a two day old backup made via spb backup and yes, have also gone into "connection setup" under connections and let it setup AT&T as my provider which subsequently asks for restarting the pda. Also, the HSDPA utility is still showing a check mark on HSPDA On.
All of the above have failed to get my phone back to 3G speeds. I've even tried to surf/download thinking maybe just the icon is showing "G" or "E" however its painstakingly slow now.
So, its either the "G" icon or "E" is what shows now. This all happened when I looked at my phone this morning after SPB backup had performed its scheduled backup that was triggered around 2:30am.
other than that... THIS IS AN AMAZING ROM BY DUTTYTHROY!! YOU RULE DUDE..
oh.. almost forgot: my radio is 1.27.14.09 which I've read that only works with the AT&T Tilt, which is what I have. Just an FYI.
Someone please help as I'm a heavy data user hence can't afford to be without 3G/HSDPA ... TY

Cite your sources.
I get 3G/HSDPA just fine on my Kaiser, whenever at&t actually built out some towers.
When I first tried this rom (radio 1.27.14.09) I lost all connection with AT&T but after several hours and traveling into another area everything seemed to fall back in place. I've also noticed that the phone is very slow to reconnect after passing through blacked out areas, not sure why other AT&T phones lose connection but come back online much faster.
Otherwise the ROM is great.
Is it possibly something to do with your rate plan?
EDIT: nevermind I'm using a diff rom I think

I personally don't have any issues on the network. I'm running Dutty No.6 AT&T. Does this problem apply to a CID unlocked phone, a SIM unlocked phone, or both?

It shouldn't be my rate plan as I have the PDA unlimited for $39.99. Also, here's an update. This morning when I woke up my Tilt it was still showing E and my wishful thinking of Santa giving me a pre-christmas gift by fixing my phone (I'm easy) were just about drowned. ...however out of nowhere and without doing anything to the phone like soft-reset etc., the 3G icon came back and now its been coming back intermittently..
Now I'm pretty sure that its not that I'm traveling in a non-3G area and thats why its coming back intermittently as I live in a decent size metro area of Jacksonville FL and also because the areas I've been to this morning have always had 3G.. unless I'm wrong.. which I sure hope so..
BTW: I "downgraded" my Radio to 11.17 last night itself as one of the things I was trying to fix this issue. Just an FYI.
Here it is in a nutshell!!
Please note the following:
1) Got my new (unlocked) tytn II on dec 12.
*Sim in at 6:00pm. Had 3g & hsdpa till 10:00 pm. Went to bed.
*Dec 13th could not make calls or connect to data while on 3g.
*Calls would disconnect. Hsdpa message "the answering modem has disconnected "
* Switched back to gsm mode. Phone works but no 3g or hsdpa support.
*Dec 14 called att. Customer service said "unknown device" not supported.
*Transfer to data tech " Stated unsupported device" cant add the pda data package for $39.95. Stated my imei was blocked from 3g & hsdpa because of unlocked device status. But edge & gsm would work. Note edge & gsm modes work.
*Data tech said go to att store and get another branded att 3g device and use it to activate the pda data plan.
*I did this at 2:30 pm est. It worked for about 1/2 hour till 3:00 pm est. So much for my $39.95.
*Called att again & got a product support specialist(pr guy haha).he stated:
2) Att will not support an unlocked device.
*I said what about my $39.95???? I also said that i was a paying us att customer and was willing to pay for the high speed service. He said that they could no change my device unlocked status within the att network even though i was willing to pay for the data plan. I was pissed at that point. I told him that the hardware supports 3g & hsdpa and stated that att had locked a paying customer out of the 3g network. He said again "att does not support unlocked devices". I then asked him why i had access to the gsm & edge network and why att supported me on it and not 3g or hsdpa? I must have stumped him because he put me on hold. His reply after talking his boss was "att wil not support an unlocked device. We went back & forth like this until I Said "THIS IS BULLSHIP & HUNG UP.
* He call me back about an hour later because i threatened to switch back to verizon an stated " if you had the att original rom and if the phone was carrier locked it may change my device status" I said that I would give it a shot.
* Got the orig. att rom from here. Used sspl to apply cid per the reverting instructions. Phone said att 3g on startup & cid-8. Still no 3g. flashed hspl and bact to duttys rom 7.b for now.
In summary I can get the 3g & hsdpa signal but nothing works when connected! CAN YOU SAY CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT!!!
3G Test on AT&T network
How can we test if we are getting 3G speeds after changing our ROMs? I see the 3G and H logo's but don't think I'm getting the speeds.
Does changing the ROM unlock our AT&T phones?
Is there a ROM that is transparent to AT&T and allow us to use the 3G speeds?
Will reverting back to the AT&T Rom allow us to get the 3G speeds again?
newbie
Are you on drugs? , AT&T unlocks their phones, that does not matter , the reps you were speaking with are retarded they use a BILLING SYSTEM called TELEGENCE if you enter a IMEI wrong or of a unlocked device it gives back a UNKNOWN device message which means pretty much the reps can and if they dont want to , wont help you get your data working because they are lazy as ****. they do not block data on phones nor can they monitor your device to know what you are doing. their HLR's are only one way addressable.
Ok, I just upgraded to this ROM (cus duttys roms are amazing) after I read your post and...
I ran into some connection problems after my programs started looking for "my ISP" (isp.cingular) instead of "MEdia Net" (wap.cingular) In "advanced settings" in "connections" I re-set programs to run off MEdia Net, and it seems all is well
I think it might have switched when I was screwing with the comm manager and turned G3 off
DISCLAIMER: I'm a noob so take my advice with a grain of salt haha
No probs w/ ATT
My unlocked phone works just fine on the ATT network and i constantly get 3G UMTS and HSDPA speeds. Att does not block any device you are able to use on their network as they have roaming contracts with cell phone service providers across the world. If your device does not receive 3g speeds you can have your imei number added to the ATT allowed database just call 611 from your phone and talk to the service rep. If they give you any problem then call back and tell them you want to add the imei number of a wireless data card for computer and they will add that for you.
Must have been smoking the glass pipe!
Sorry folks.
This is a reception problem for me.
ATT really jerked me around.
The problem is a weak 3g signal.
If i dont have four bars 3g & hspda fail.
I went & sat under an att tower and everything works.
As soon as I drive away from the tower and the signal strength drops I loose 3g calling & Hsdpa.
Is there a fix.

How about this quote straight from the at&t CEO?

Digg and random bloggers aren't really a good source. I remember the bullfrap article on Digg about Hummers being more environmentally conservative over a lifetime than any other green car.
have you tired having your sim card replaced? I had a similar issue where i was not able to call or receive calls in 3g but could on edge for a good day. Went to ATT and found out that others were having same issue with kraiser had them replace my sim card and everything worked great after.
Got 3G back and for good.... so far!

thanks for the tip jellorice.. I actually got my 3G back since yesterday and its been working great ever since. As for the sim being faulty, Thats something I didn't even think of and now that you've mentioned it, I'll keep in mind for future troubleshooting as I'm sure some other issue will crop up.
Nevertheless, Dutty's ROM 6 is UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME!!! I'm sure Dutty's gotten numb to all the kudos he's got and still is getting, being in Gazillions... but I wish I had better words to describe this ROM as for someone like me who is virtually bringing food on the table because of the Tilt (heavy business user), the key strengths of his ROM are just Marvelous.
Sry for getting sidetracked.. I got a little exited there.
Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum. I've tried searching for some answers but can't seem to find how to resolve the problem. I'm quite new to using PPCs so let me know if there's any information that you guys need.
So my phone works fine in Canada using Rogers... but everytime I go to US, I cannot detect a network for my phone and there's a "!" at the top. I tried searching for a network and it says "no network found" or sometimes it tries to register and then it fails in the end. In US, my phone automatically shuts off... I have no idea how this happens but everytime I go to look at my phone after leaving Canada, it's off. So when I go to turn it back on, there's no phone signal. I have no idea what to do as I'm not very familiar with PPCs.
Thanks for the help!
Which phone are you trying to use? Guessing Touch Pro?
Is international roaming or data roaming added to your account with Rogers?
Hey I have the HTC Touch Pro... yeah I've used this sim with my eten m700 before and it works fine. It just always seem to be searching for a network then it can't find any.
Thanks!!!
are you a prepaid customer? if so, Rogers doesnt allow roaming outside of canada.
Hey there... Just figured I'd pipe in here...
I am still using a TyTN (shopping for a Touch Pro today), and although I was able to always use my phone in the states, since my last firmware upgrade (WM6.1, new radio stack)....
....I can't get any service when I cross the border.
SOMETIMES I'll get 10 minutes of service over the course of an entire day. Very strange.
It is obviously firmware-related... Good luck with your phone...!
Thanks for all the help guys...
Nope I'm not a prepaid customer... should I be upgrading something on my phone to see if it works? Sorry... really don't know much about PPCs here!
just out of curiousty, have you called Rogers to ask for an updated OTA to be pushed to your SIM?
I've contacted Rogers and they said it has nothing to do with them... it's my phone! Should I contact them for the OTA? I'm sorry to be so noobie but... what does OTA do?
Thanks again!
Anyone help please!!!
Hey guys. This is a last attempt at fixing this very annoying problem. All the searches I have done don't seem to leave anywhere. So here's the situation:
I bought a Chinese clone phone (Sunno HDi - clone of HTC T8282). The phone comes with WM6.5 [5.2.23037 (build 23037.5.3.0)]. Overall the phone works great, and I have done a couple of YouTube videos on it.
But anyway - the really annoying problem is that from day 1 the phone has always shown that I'm roaming. I always get the little roaming triangle, which in turn makes several applications complain about roaming charges, blah blah blah. From my understanding, roaming is a feature of what's stored on the SIM card, and the info being pulled in from the tower. I have my T-Mobile SIM card in the phone, and I put up all T-Mobile networks I could find on the top of my preferred network list. What am I missing?
*Any* help will be greatly appreciated!

That option in Verizon updates the PRL on the phone (preferred roaming list), which is a feature of CDMA phones. GSM phones do not have to do this. Well.. they should not have to... In either case, there isn't such an option on T-Mobile. That's why I'm wondering if this is something hard-coded in the ROM.
Thanks for the tip, though. Every little bit helps in getting rid of this annoyance!

When I signed up my Sunno today with T-Mobile, I spoke with the representative about T-M's lack of coverage in my state which is one of the largest. While the competitor ads make T-M's 3G coverage look small, their actual coverage is probably about double that but still considerably smaller than most other carriers'.
The rep said not to worry as T-M has standard cellular agreements with the other carriers to allow phones attached to T-M to roam. He said that depending on where I live or travel, I could probably see the roam signal quite a bit but not to worry about it because I am on T-M's prepaid plan and roaming means no increase in my per minute charge.
To tell you the truth, I could care less about what symbol is displayed as long as I have cell coverage.
Ok this is probably the most frustrating thing ever.
I'm on O2 Pay as you go, in the UK and my phone just isn't connecting to the network at all!
I don't have a clue why, I can't send or receive phone calls and texts and this is a bloody big problem.
Whenever I go to search networks it comes up with all the main networks, such as Orange, t-mobile...etc. Comes up with O2 too, but whenever I click on it to register it, it says "your sim does not allow a connection to this network"!
Anyone else in the UK on O2 Pay as you go getting the same problem!?
I've never had this problem before ever and I've had my HTC DESIRE since it's been out.
Voice phone call problems. I can make a receive voice phone calls around my local area (approx. 30 min driving circle), outside of that area, I can not make or receive calls, data and texts work fine. Called Verizon, over an hour on the phone trying many things, settings, sim card removal, refreshing network, checking for call restrictions, nothing worked. Took the phone it to a Verizon store, got a new sim card, same thing, no go. I have a refurbished phone coming from Verizon, but would rather keep my new phone.
Any guesses? Roaming is turned on phone, everything seems good, just no out of area calls. If I try to place a call, all it does is sit there saying "dialing" but I here no sounds. After a bit I get error message "out of service area", and then "call lost". It may have done this from day one, as I do not use this phone much for traveling, as I have a work cell. Any help would be great. Thanks.
Would a screen shot from the app LTE on/off, help someone to see if some radio setting is wrong?
I know one thing that is different from my phone to the other two m8's I have here is under the heading radio band, I only have two choices, usa band, and 1800-1900 band, my wife and daughter's phones have a third choice, 800-900 band. Could this be it? And how do I get the third choice back?
Ok guys, what I found out is that you have to use thunderbolt lte app from the play store. Choose cdma+lte, then choose the other radio band, not the US band. Exit out and you are good to go.
Now every time you reboot the phone, you have to go through it again. I don't know why it doesn't stick. Maybe some one can help
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using xda premium
Another thing I see different is, in the list of stuff in the lte on off app, Next to GSM service, my phone says emergency only, and the other phones say GSM service, in service. How do I change it from emergency only to in service?
