Answering Problems - Any advice?

I'm using Faria's WWE WM6 and when I try to answer a call with either the send key or the left button (above the send key), it will not answer and send the call to voicemail. This happens 60% of the time I try to answer a call.
I was originally using the standard T-Mo USA Radio ROM and decided to switch to the UK 2.19.11 to see if it made a difference. It hasn't. Anyone else seen this issue?
IPL 2.26
SPL 2.26
GSM 2.19.11 (T-Mo UK)
OS 2.18.0.0
Carrier: T-Mobile USA
G3 MDA

i am currently running faria's ROM and plan to switch to xplore 2.0 and i also had the standard t-mobile radio ROM. But i am not having any issues with my G3 MDA. Did this happen after you changed radio ROMS or always?

It is happening with both ROMs.

Did this happen before u upgraded to WM6 or only after? if after try reflashing the ROM, or flashing a different one, like Xplore 2.0. I am not to good with all this stuff (im still a noob ), so wait till other people post to actually take action. Just trying to help.

wait do you flash the radio rom before the main os rom? or after?

I flashed the radio rom after the wm6 rom was installed.

Changing Extended Rom on Treo 750

I have two Treo 750's. One from Rogers and another from Telstra.
I've tried to get the extended ROM from the Rogers one onto the Telstra. I've upgraded both to Mobile 6.1, yet the Telstra one doesn't have Messenger and apparently you can't download it.
So I tried copying CapPackage.PXP and CarrierDB.PXP from the Rogers one and put them on the Telstra one. Then I did a hard reset. I still see all Telstra stuff.
How do you copy over the extended rom, or simply remove and reference to a specific carrier?
Or is there a way to install Messenger on it?

That should work assuming that is from where those are being installed. Have a read here for some info on CapPackage: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343713

Radio Image - ADP1 Original

I am an Australian ADP1 user, I installed the radio update on JF's post. And as soon as I did this my could no longer get a data connection. I have been using my G1 data fine for over 3 months no problems. But as soon as the radio update went in, I could no longer get a data connection. The APN settings have remained the same.
The default settings for Telstra (http://telstramobile.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/telstramobile.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=2855) which I had been using is telstra.internet.
However for some reason when I change the APN to the WAP settings
telstra.wap, a data connection can be established. I do not want to be charged the WAP prices, and have been trying to find the original radio image on the ADP1.
Can someone please link me to the original adp1 image?
Or help me able to connect to telstra.internet again?
Thanks for your time.

!edit! forgot to write in...what I really am looking for is the original adp radio.img file.

I'm in the same situation... Anyone have the original radio image to ADP1?

Unless the radio images are different between the tmobile version and the ADP, you can reflash the RC29 firmware with the .nbh file. Afterwards you could update your phones firmware as usual.
I'm not completely sure about this so maybe it would be best to get a second opinion. Can anyone confirm this?

Kaiser (ATT Tilt 1) ROM/Radio question

I was reading the Wiki/FAQ and found this thread and still have some questions on the ROM Radio configuration.
I have a tilt I got from work and the reception is attrocious, so I am under the impression that the ATT ROM and Radio have more affinity for the ATT network than Tmobile (which is my guess because my old Wing had much better signal). What I notice from the list of Kaiser ROMs (on the Wiki) is the only official Tmobile ROMs are for the Netherlands and the UK. My guess is that I wouldn't want to load those since I live in the US, plus the official OS build is 19124 in the ATT tilt instead of 19212 in the other builds.
My question is: Can I mix other Radios to better work on the Tmobile network? Do I need to clear my ROM from the official ATT to another HTC ROM? Does the ROM clear the Windows build so there wouldn't be a compatibility issue, or does it only work for the cell phone service (device communication portion sort of like a DOS on windows 98) and therefore the OS build is independant of the ROM and Radio? Do ROMs and Radios need to be properly paired or can I trial and error it?
I've been looking for some of the answers but the weren't overly appearant from the FAQ and Wikis. Hopefully I didn't gloss over the easy answers somewhere on the site.

Any thoughts? I can start doing the trial and error method, but if I can get some confirmation that I won't brick my phone that would be awesome. Also, if there is any general "method to the madness" in terms of trying the Radios out, I would appreciate it.

This is where you should start:
Flashing Your First Kaiser Rom
The most important consideration for flashing any phone: MAKE SURE YOU HARD SPL (if you are using a Tilt, I recommend 3.56 as that is what AT&T officially used in their last ROM). That way, if you screw up a flash, you can just flash to another radio/ROM without worrying about bricking your phone. Press the Camera+Power button+use your stylus to reset the phone to bootloader to see if your phone is already Hard SPL'd. You should see a 3.28, 3.29, 3.34, or 3.56 at the top left of the screen when the tricolor screen pops up; you can just reset your phone after looking to get back to your OS). If, and only if, your phone is Hard SPL'd, read on...
>Can I mix other Radios to better work on the Tmobile network?
Of course. For example, I am using the emobile radio (1.71.09.01) on my Tilt. See: The Ultimate Radio Thread for more.
>Do I need to clear my ROM from the official ATT to another HTC ROM?
No, you can flash the radio only if you want.
>Does the ROM clear the Windows build
Not if you're flashing just the radio.
>...and therefore the OS build is independant of the ROM and Radio?
The OS build is independent of the radio. Best to think of the ROM as the OS, and the radio as how your OS communicates with your phone...
>or can I trial and error it?
That's the whole point of flashing just the radio--finding which one works best for you.

Thank you for the information. I verified the Hard SPL (3.56) so it looks like I am good on that front.
I just want to verify something you said before I actually do this (since the RUU tutorial told me ROMs can brick my phone and you mentioned Radios are similar in that fashion). The radios listed from the Ultimate ROM/Radio Thread are listed by WMx.x version, not by the associated ROMs. Since I am using the officially released ROM from ATT my version of WM is 6.1, therefore any of the Radios under the 6.1 header are available for flashing to my phone.
Is that correct?
Thanks again and in advance.

Anyone know of a new link for the latest Hard SPL 3.56? I keep on trying to download on rapidshare and I am denied (cause I am a non-subscriber). If there is a mirror that anyone knows of I would appreciate it. I keep searching around and cannot find one.

Will Sprint Hook up a TP2 w/ Custom Rom

Hello All,
I have a TP2 I am going to hook up that was just taken off the network. It is fully unlocked with a custom rom & 2.23WU radio.
Question is will they hook up a phone with a custom rom if I call them? Also, if I need to flash it back to stock rom will I loose the unlocked GSM radio? Reason I ask is the stock rom has 1.96WF radio in the title which I know is a locked version.
Thanks,
Force

i would think as long as it's a sprint phone with a clean esn, it wouldn't matter which rom it's running.

All you need to give them is your esn #, i don't see how they can tell what rom you are using or if the gsm sim is unlock or not. Just go ahead and try, i don't see the harm.

Cool, Thx guys
One time I had a TP1 and sold it on ebay and the guy said sprint was having problems hooking it up, I know it had a clean ESN,
He flashed to stock and they hooked it up NP.
Later,
Force

They may ask you to use the "Update Profile" software that comes in Sprint stock roms, and depending on your custom rom, that software may not be included.

Never mention is has a custom rom to them. They won't honor the warranty if you do

NEVER mention to any service provider that you "hacked" your phone, as stated this will guarentee you A voided warentee. I would also guarentee they will certainly not hack it for you.
just make sure when you hack it to backup your stock rom. that way if something were to go wrong and your Rhodium would need serviced you can stock-ah-fy (yeah, I said it) it. One look at a flashed Rom and they will tell you that you're S.O.L.

So they hooked up the phone and sure enough just like the TP1, the voice works, but no data works.
It is running latest NRG Rom 2.5, Same thing happened with Mighty rom on the TP1 a year or so ago.
Any ideas, maybe use the provisioning app on it?
Thx,
Force

Yes, you should run the provisioning app located in the Start Menu\Programs\Tools folder.
There was a new NRG 2.5 Sense Cookie HomeTab ROM released on June 27th. I'd suggest you reflash to ROM to the newest one on your phone rather than relying on something the previous owner flashed.
Also it's advised to do a Task29 clear. (Search for it in the PPC Geeks thread dedicated to the Touch Pro 2 CDMA NRG ROMS: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=86489 )
Plus the recommended unlocked radio for the CDMA Touch Pro 2 is the 2.32.00WU version found in this thread http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=106571 on PPC Geeks.
I've found that PPC Geeks is where the best support for the NRG ROM and unlocked radios for the CDMA Touch Pro 2 are found. Whereas I prefer xda-developers for most of my apps.
PS I run the Titanium version of the Touch Pro 2 CDMA NRG ROM's so don't have first hand experience with the Sense versions.
I'm still running an ancient version (Late May) of the NRG ROM and it didn't have any of the sprint PRL and Profiler update apps. I found a cab that will install them in the MR. X ROM thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=1563450&postcount=4
