GPRS signal not constant

Farai WM 6.0
I am running
IPL/SPL 2.26
OS 2.18.0.0
RADIO 02.69.11
The signal will go down and I am not moving. It normal takes a soft reset to get it working again. I see alot of UK radio. Will they work on T-Mobile US. I did try the IPL/SPL 3.08 with Radio 2.69.11 and the internet was really fast. But it seem to do the same as the 2.26. Also is there a Xplor 1.1 with all the apps?
I a currently testing just the Radio 02.69.11. Signal is strong but wonder if it is reliable.

I've had nothing but problems with any Radio from 2.25 and new when on a WM6 ROM (and I've tried them on numerous WM6 ROMS). Biggest issue for me is lots of missed calls and missed SMS. But others on T-Mo US claim 2.69 and 2.61 work just fine for them on WM6, so YMMV (I'm on Cingular so it could be a carrier thing).
And yes, the T-Mo UK 2.19 Radio works fine in the US. Thats what I use all the time now. It isn't as fast to acquire a signal, and the signal isn't as strong in fringe areas, but for me it works and I don't miss calls or SMS.
I recognized, when switching wifi on - my gprs goes down. Doesn´t make anything because wifi goes even faster, but I wonder why GPRS looses 2 bars of strenght only by switching wifi on?!

Brand new o2 cant get signal in virginia

I just recieved my xda exec o2 from the uk. I live in usa virginia. I had a t mobile mda unlocked with cingular service, or the old at&t and could get reception in my room 2 bars. With the 02 i cant get a signal unless i go outside my house and even then its a bit bad.
I had wm5 but upgraded to 6, i had the .9 rom, went to 1.8 then 1.5 still they act the same.

If you're with AT&T (Cingular) and in the area where they use 850 MHz for coverage, that might be one of the reason. Universal (xda exec) doesn't cover that frequency. Universal is a tri band and not a quad band phone.
ya u may be right, cuz the mda, erickson and razr all work in the house
i mean when i leave the house it gets better, is there anyway i can improve the reception this phone is so much better than the mda dangit

HTC TC from UK 3g/HSDPA DOES work in USA

Just to clear up what nobody at HTC support or Expansys knows for sure is that YES the UK model of the TC HSDPA /3G does work in the USA. I just bought mine in LOndon last week got home yesterday and it works great very fast. Better than my HTC Tilt did. tested the speed and it is 98kb download with the H showing at the top of the phone I live in Los Angeles. Hope this helps others wanting to buy this phone. Glad i toook a chance and bought it hoping it wiroked . IT DOES. WORK!!!!
Yes, for those who are not sure, the Touch Cruise is a tri-band umts phone (and quad band gsm).
I live in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas and bought mine online and it came from Europe. It works in the Dallas areas at 3g speeds clocked at approx 1.5mb. ATT mobility.
It also works in the UK at 3g speeds of close to 700Kbps and 3g in Italy (traveling in Europe this week). Truely amazing phone/pda. Even the TomTom gps is perfect, kept me from getting lost in Germany this week.
"3G does work in the USA. I just bought mine in LOndon last week got home yesterday and it works great very fast. Better than my HTC Tilt did"
it's unclear if you used to use a tilt in the usa but if you did then tc is pretty much the same hardware give and take a bit
and they support the same networks

HTC Branded T7272 vs ATT Branded Fuze 3G Reception Discrepencies

Hello,
Using my UK/EU Version of the Touch Pro branded as HTC (RAPH100 on the back) I get Edge everywhere and 3G someplaces. However, I gifted a friend an AT&T branded "Fuze" (not sure of the exact model) and when the phones are side by side most of the time, the Fuze gets 3G everywhere and I am stuck on Edge.
They are both on AT&T, and as far as I know have the same data plans. I thought they were both quad frequency chips, and I didnt think there were any GSM differences in the hardware between the versions.
What gives? Can I take a broken Fuze, desolder the GSM chip, and resolder it into my T7272? Is there a way to check for 3G reception vs. 3G connection allowance? Meaning is my phone getting the 3G signal, but AT&T refusing my phone's ID?
you may have posted this in the wrong place.
Did you look at the radio versions? Sounds like each device had a different radio flashed on it. Check out the raphael radio thread here
Moved to Touch Pro, Fuze General for better exposure.

[Q] Nexus S - Very poor reception

Hello,
I bought a refurbished Nexus S from an online retailer in my country. As soon as I got it, I flashed CM10.1 on it and got it up and running but I immediately realised that the signal strength on the phone was WEAK! I only got 1-2 bars in my living room and sometimes no signal strength at all. However, as soon as I go out to my apartment's balcony, everything is back to full signal strength. The phone just keeps on dropping reception.
I looked into it and found that my phone had the M200KRKC1 radio so I said to my self, hey, lets flash it with one of the newer radios and it should be fine, right? WRONG! I'm running one of the newer KF radios and it's still the same.
Summary:
Initial radio: M200KRKC1
Current radio: Newer KF radio.
Situation: The same as before, weak reception.
Any help with this would be highly appreciated because this is driving me insane and I have to resort to an old Nokia phone of mine till then.
Thanks and regards.
You've got the Korean M200 (sojuk) version. According to Google official image website https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#sojuk , M200KRKC1 is already the latest radio. Could it be incompatible radio (hardware) issue?
Thanks for your response. I am not sure if its hardware but the reception was the same with the other radio too. I'm stumped
South Korean carriers are CDMA2000 and UMTS based (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code#K). I think M200 radio support CDMA2000 and HSPA, not sure about GSM support level, which is used in Pakistan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code#P).
This is based on info in wiki, which may not be up-to-date or accurate.
Just my 2 cents.
