Hi all!
My Tilt is having a weird problem, which started all of a sudden today morning.
No matter how muchever i try, the phone radio does not connect to my Mobile Network. It keeps saying "searching....." till eternity.
I was using Dutty's V4 + 1.27.12.32 radio.
All was working fine till today early morning. Around 10 am i try to connect to gprs, and i am not able to, then i do a soft reset, and then i see that my phone cannot connect to my mobile network at all. My mobile network is AIRTEL, in India. The phone keeps saying "searching..." and never stops that and hence now i am not connected to my network.
I have flashed different radio roms since morning - .17, .11, .32 again but no luck. Then i reflashed it with Schaps latest 4.33 rom (wm6), but still no result.
Then i thought maybe my sim is bad, and so i put my wife's Vodafone sim, and that worked! (Vodafone works on a different band than Airtel. this i know coz i have a SonyEricsson Mobile handset 3g-enabled of "3" from australia which works only with Vodafone in India, and not with any other network)
Then i put my sim back and it doesnt work again. While my sim is working perfect in my wife's iPhone.
can someone please help me in this, and tell me what i can do?
i wonder if the phone is somehow network locked or something like that ?
i sure did HARDSPL when i first got the TILT one month back.
Please suggest what can i do to get it back up. Its really strange as its been working perfect till today morning 8am.
Thanks a lot guys!
Hmm, try a hard reset then a factory rom flash. Then try to flash a rom then flah it with a different radio.

Thanks for the advise, tried all that, and nothing works.
The problem remains the same.... the phone works on a particular band that Vodafone works on. but is not taking my Network providers band.
is it possible that due to the flashings done in general, has partially fried the Radio hardware inside it?
Please help me guys! am in real bad shape without the phone now!
!BUMP!
Please Help me guys...i am really stuck with this, and there is no way i can get it repaired here too, as its not launched yet in my country.
ITs just that the phone has stopped working on a particular GSM Band...
Thanks a lot.
Again asking for help guys..please suggest me what i can do to get it right? isnt anyone having any idea of it...?
I am really desperate, please help!
Thanks a ton!
ps. i am now trying to download a wm6.1 rom and radio and try flashing with that and see if it rectifies the problem...
!BUMP!
I have tried flashing with wm6.1 and respective radio with that, and still no luck..
No one got any solution for this ??? any adivse at all?
thanks.
Hey everyone,
I got an AT&T Fuze (Touch Pro) and Im using it on Fido in Canada. My data is working perfectly fine, my only issue is that my phone keeps switching from 3G to H every once in a while, I was just wondering why and whats the reason for that?
Also, I have a little exclamation mark (in a yellow triangle) in the top right hand corner right beside the 3G/H/E Icon. I don't know why thats there?
Thanks to all for the help!
No, that's neither yours nor your phone issues. Once you' re in the better speed coverage, the phone will jump to H or your phone is accessing the internet.
"little exclamation mark" is a "roaming" indicator.
Heres the thing, it jumps back and forth while even accessing/using data.
Is there anyway to get rid of the exclamation mark?
have you flashed the rom?
I would be interested in how to get rid of the roaming icon too.
I have tried all the registry changes to no avail. The icon, and roaming warnings for things like the weather app, remain. It's about the last thing I need to fix but I seem to be stuck.
Im using RRE's ROM. So far it seems to have fixed itself, but now Im having more issues. I wonder if I should flash to a different ROM.
Hi guys,
I have a somewhat related problem and I hope someone can help me out. I just recently bought an unlocked HTC Touch Pro (not the Fuze version) and I am using it with my Fido sim card. Everything works and I was able to setup EDGE on it, but what bothers me is it keeps saying that I am roaming (for example when I access the Weather app). I am wondering if this is just some sort of a glitch due to the phone being unlocked or am I really roaming? I also get that roaming icon at the top. I am located in Vancouver so I am not out of town or anything. I just want to make sure so I don't end up having a crazy invoice by the end of the month. Thanks very much in advance.

It's because Fido uses Roger's towers now, but the companies are still identified separately and therefore it thinks you're roaming. As long as you have a data plan, you should be ok.
PS. Depending where in Vancouver you are, you should be getting at least 3G (3G), or hopefully HSDPA (H), vs Edge (E).

xda_fanboy, thank you very much for the helpful information. I can finally stop worrying. I do have a data plan with Fido so that should do. However, this is the second day of using the Touch Pro and the only data network I get is Edge. The only setup I did to my phone is what is listed in http://www.iday.ca/2008/11/how-to-setup-rogers-or-fido.html, under the Fido section. Would you mind taking a look and see if that is all that I need to do? I really appreciate all your help. Thanks again.

Please see my post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3192894&postcount=3 and see if it helps. I believe you also need to go into Settings>Connections>Advanced Network and enable HSDPA/HSUPA to get the full benefit.

I also have this phone and live in Vancouver on Fido. I don't think it will work on 3G, or so it seems. Mine is not the ATT version either, just the stock HTC. Currently it runs fine on the standard network, although as mentioned i have not been able to get rid of the roaming icon, but have never been charged extra. Its too bad we can't use it on 3G, and if any can find a way, that would be awesome, id love to be using the full potential of this phone.
I think we are stuck with no 3G, unless there are any suggestions?
If your not using the AT&T Fuze, then you won't have 3G in North America. Don't worry about the roaming icon. Since the phone (or is it the software?) has no idea that Fido uses Rogers' towers, it thinks your roaming. I have the roaming icon as well, had it on many non-branded Fido phones.
I turned off 3G because I hate seeing my icon go to 3G then H at random times besides when Im using actual data and it seems that with 3G, I get worse reception! Makes no sense I know, I've tried 3 different radio's and all have the same issue. Im thinking if an HTC Touch Diamond Rogers branded Radio will work, then that would probably work the best. Anybody know if/where I can get it?

If you bought a stock HTC Touch Pro (non-ATT, non-North American) then you won't have the NA 3G radio frequency and you're stuck with Edge.
Regarding a ROM, head over to the ROM sub-forum. There's a step-by-step guide on flashing your first ROM. As far as which ROM is best, it depends entirely on what you want from it, and even then varies by personal choice from person to person. There is no 1 "best" ROM. Check out all the ROM threads (there's a Roger's specific ROM available FYI) and pick one based on what you like.

I have a similar problem as Speng2, but I have the HTC Fuze which is the american ATT branded one. I unlocked it, flashed the NATF 4.7 rom and tried many diff radios and can never get more than EDGE. I used to have 3g when it was stock. I live in Los Angeles which is a 3g area. I get full edge signal but no 3g or HSPDA. I have a feeling it has to do with a setting. Pls help.

This thread was specifically for Fido, a Canadian carrier. I have no knowledge of the settings you will require for your carrier in LA, which is the most likely reason you are not getting 3G. I would try contacting them if you haven't already. Otherwise try and find a thread for your carrier, or perhaps check HF (not sure if we can post URL's to other sites). Good luck!
What if you dont have a data plan

What if you don't have a data plan? It seems that sypod has not been charged extra for Roaming... Does anyone know how Roaming works with FIDO? I just got the HTC FUZE and I don't want to have to pay outrageous Roaming charges. Any Ideas?
Hey Everyone,
Long time reader, had a Touch pro since Feb this year and have loved every minute of it.. no probs with apps and upgrading ROMs etc...
Till Saturday night.. Took a phone call, and everything worked fine... Then on Sunday morning i had no reception, checked all settings, appeared to be in order, though im no guru...
I rang 3 and they checked everything on their end, and still no go...
I know its not the service as my SIM works in another 3 Phone...
Is there anything i can try to troubleshoot or settings/software i can change to get reception again?
Thanks people!
Something else i thought i should add is that when you turn it onto manual, it shows Telstra, Optus Yes, Vodaphone AU, and sometimes 3Telstra, but no 3?
check if "Call Barring" is enabled or not
Hey i tried checking the call barring, but it said it wasnt able to as there is no network...
Have you tried to flash another radio?
I dont know too much about flashing and all that, could you recommend one please?
As I do not have a TP I can´t recommend you wich one is better, but here you can find all available and then you can ask in the proper TP section

Hope it helps,
Ive tried flashing a few new radios. None of them worked, looks like hardware fault...
Thanks for your help!
Hello everyone ....
noob here so bear with me if I what I am asking has been discussed already... ran a search but did not find anything directly related so here goes...
I just got an HTC sensation from the UK (live in Malta).. My carrier uses only the HSDPA 2100 frequency as it uses only 3g... now the sensation does not want to connect to this carrier.... new sim, reset, etc,... but to no avail.
It works fine on the other carriers (they use other frequences in addition the one mentioned before)
I keep getting a message ""Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network'"
any idea why this is happening...
The set is going to the carrier tomorrow so its techs can have a look at it... and maybe fiddle with the settings a bit...
I have done all the usual things in the phone (GSM etc set to auto etc etc) but it never connects.... not even as a normal phone without data...
any ideas what could be the cause? hardward fault? though it works in the other two operators we have here..
I was actually thinking of a reflash or a custom rom if all fails....
it has my carrier a bit confused in fact..
spoke to HTC Uk and they told me to speak to the carrier
Phone has Vodafone branding on startup... but is unlocked as I tried with vodafone malta and another operator.... and both work... but not on 3g... did not try that..
could it be that 3g is locked and 2g is not? But i understand that an unlocked set is unlocked in its entirety...
My desire works fine with this carrier....
thanks
just a quick update...
partly solved through the testing menu and fettling with Cipher and radio toggle... I do have network and data access...
however, something funny cropped up... as soon as i activate GPS through a programme it cuts off GPRS and when i switch off GPS it does not come back on...
it requires a restart for it to come back on... or sometimes by toggling on and off aeroplane mode..
any idea before i flash the whole thing... or flush it down the loo.....
also got the locking ring touchscreen problem today....
not happy with my sensation at all today....
thanks...
I am having an identical problem with my sensation. Did you ever solve this?
Hi guys,
This may not strictly be a Sensation question at all, but since I'm using a Sensation, and I'm baffled by this problem, I thought I'd ask if any of you have any idea what could be going wrong here. I've posted about this issue on Vodafone UK's forums but I can't post the link as I haven't posted enough yet, so I've copied what I wrote below;
Firstly I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place, it's an odd problem and I'm not sure who to contact about it. I spend a lot of time abroad in the Czech Republic, so I have a Vodafone UK contract with the data traveller service included. This has worked brilliantly for months, however about a month or so ago I started to notice problems when connected through HSDPA, on ANY of the local networks here (Vodafone CZ, o2, T-Mobile).
What happens is data can be downloaded, but data can't be sent, meaning that virtually anything that requires data doesn't work as most things do require data to be sent. So for example, the Speedtest.net app will give a great download speed, but then it hangs on the upload speed. I use a piece of software called Pubtran to look up public transport times here, and this doesn't work now over HSDPA. I can't browse the internet over HSDPA, pages just time out. Facebook won't refresh, and exchange email won't sync, etc.
Now, if I force the phone onto a GSM type connection, so that the link is over EDGE instead, everything works perfectly. No issues whatsoever, so this is unfortunately the way I have to leave it just now. I've tried the same SIM in a different phone (my usual phone is an HTC Sensation, the test phone is an HTC Desire), and there's exactly the same issue. As stated above, this problem exists regardless of the network I'm connected to. It looks as though there could be a problem with Vodafone UK's APN, but then again it's working fine over EDGE, so it's most odd. I can't test with a different UK SIM unfortunately as I don't have one to try. Some of my friends here have Vodafone CZ SIMs, and these of course work perfectly over HSDPA.
Just to be clear, this problem only effects data over HSDPA, and it only started about a month or so ago. If I switch my phone to GSM, data works fine. This is repeatable on an HTC Desire that I have too. Does this sound like a network problem?
Thanks in advance
Why don't you just call Vodafone and ask
