dont waste ur money
May I suggest flashing new radios.
My T-Mobile carrier in North Atlanta Georgia must've have did something to the local towers. For awhile I was using a radio that had full signal, untill two weeks ago, it only had two bars. After flashing a new radio, I had full bars. I flashed the old radio agian to make sure because it was the radio with the battery life, but it went down to two bars.
Make sure you have a correct radio, ie. radio for 6.0 or 6.1.
Just do a search, plenty of information, and this questions have a lot of answers.
By the way, those stick on antenna boosters don't work.
my rom versionis 3.03.405.0wwe
radio is 1.64.06.04
and also I tried 1.64.08.21
but It did not working well.
maybe I have to wait until HTC publish new radios, or all the HTC phones have pretty wake signals compare with nokia even with samsung.
thanks all your helps!

I'm in Atlanta, Georgia, US.
Radio 1.64.08.21 with 3.08.161.0 full bars.
Has the signal always been weak? On Monday, a T-Mobile tower was off for maintenance that whole day.
I am in Sydney, and useing the Three network (this company use Wcdma and GSM combination solution).
my phone is T-mobile version MDA.
maybe the version kaiser not working very well in my network.
lol, i was kidding about the cell phone booster thing, they dont work at all. just one question.......how is it that u are so sure that the kaiser has a weaker signal compared to your nokia or samsung?
because now I have three phones with me one for nokia N73, the other for samsung i600, last one is HTC kaiser. in the same place, almost sametime(I have to change the simcard) they shows different signal sutuation. for instance, kaiser only got one signal, samsung got 4 out of 5, Nokia got full.
when I use kaiser to make a phone call, in my room, sometimes it has been cut down because of low signal problem, it didnot happen for samsung and nokia.
therefore, I indicate kaiser has poor signal compare with samsung and Nokia.
and I wanna fix it as well. becasue kaiser is such a cool phone include all kind of functions.
the radio needs to change thats all test the radios till you find urs thats it.
hopefully, I can find one
I already tested
1.27.12.17
1.27.12.32
1.64.06.04
1.64.08.21

You saying you tested both 6.0 and 6.1 roms. Since its a dual mode, go to Phone -> Band -> under Network Type, make sure its automatic. If not, I suggest just get a new phone.
I think the htc devices do have weaker reception than some other phones. I have had xv6600, 6700, and now tilt - all have worse reception than the phones my wife (moto rzr) and kids (lg venus, enV) have. Also my colleague at work gets a data signal on EDGE with his iPhone and I get no data at all at that location (4 bars for voice, rssi ~ 25-27).
Changing radios hasn't made any difference for me rssi values and #/dB of cells in fieldtest are always the same. I haven't studied the fieldtest program in depth, but that might be a way to objectively compare things.
nothing like that no diffrent than the others i have had quite a few my self i see drop signals after i flash but when i find the correct one its all good.
in your experiances, which radio has the best reception?
what is the "HTC Fuze"? Just ATT's name for the Touch Pro?
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...details/?device=HTC+FUZE(TM)&q_sku=sku3090226
Thanks
-crobs808
Correct. There is a just a few modifications between them. Such as the FUZE not having a forward facing camera, and the keyboard layout is different.
Switching to ATT?
Ahh darn, that is one of my wants, the front-facing camera. Can you buy a version that will work with ATT that has that camera? I am thinking about switching from Verizon to ATT, and want to take a step up from the 6800 that I currently have.
If only the HTC Touch HD had a slideout keyboard.
There are my requirements...
-Runs Windows Mobile 6+
-At least 256M RAM (not ROM)
-Supports TomTom (via aGPS or true GPS)
-Have a full slideout keyboard
-Forward-facing camera (not required, but greatly desired)
Does ATT allow using your phone as a modem? Like teathered over ActiveSync and using Internet Sharing? I do this all the time on my XV6800 on Verizon and I never get extra charges for it.
Thanks,
Actually, they both have rear facing cameras, the fuze keyboard is different and the Fuze is GSM. The Verizon and Sprint Touch Pros are CDMA.

By "rear" facing, you mean on the front of the camera, facing the user right?
On the ATT site, it shows they put the ATT logo where the Camera should be, and in all the photos of the used or refub Fuze's being sold online, there is no front camera for the "ATT" specific labeled ones. So which is it?

... no... as you are looking at the screen the camera faces away....to the rear on the phone.
why do u want a front facing camera? none of the carriers support true video calling anyway so who cares??
i have the fuze
once you put a custom rom on you should be in love
verizones version of the touch pro is absoloute crap
TP2 will be ok

how is the CDMA/Verizon version "crap"? It is identical hardware as the Fuze. In fact, the CDMA version has two cameras (front and back), the ATT Fuze has only one, so if anything the Fuze is worse, but both are identical chips, processors, ram, boards, etc...just different communication chips is all, which has no effect on processing power or speed, etc...
How is the CDMA version any different? (except for having a mroe reliable network protocol)
also - i want a forward facing camera for 2 reasons. 1) because that is the way HTC made it, and it is not ATT's job to request a different hardware setup that is more constricted, and 2) um duh...here's why - LINK: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/windowsmobile/
You need a forward facing phone for video conferencing (supported with unlimited data plans) whiehc everyone pretty much has these days.
Actually, Verizon cripples the hell out of their product. Everything on verzion will always be worse because of this. here...
Verizon's version of the HTC Touch Pro is crippled right out of the box. Locked GPS, much less RAM and no YouTube app. TouchFlow 3D eats up too much of the meager RAM. With tweaks, it is a decent device (excellent call quality), but Verizon gets no points for crippling a potentially amazing piece of hardware. Go with Sprint or AT&T if you don't need the Verizon network.
here is the proof...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej_BENjjeb8
go with the fuze or the touch pro sprint
And here is a complete list of each device and its differences... tisk tisk verizon...192 mb of ram
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/htc-...ouch-pro-vs-t-s-fuze-vs-verizon-s-xv6850.html
yeah so just the ram is different. everyone here unlocks and uses custom roms/radios, so the GPS and youtube app missing are no big deal since you can fix it in seconds. i think im gonna stay with verizon, but get a Sprint touch pro and use it with vzw
thanks!
I have recently switched from AT&T to T-Mobile... I have a Tilt w/ HardSpl 3.29. It is Sim and CID unlocked and I have flashed a few different ROMs and currently have Dutty's 3.5 on it. The only problem is that AT&T uses 2100 mhz and T-Mobile uses 2100mhz and 1700Mhz so i can only use edge for data. Does anyone have any opinions on the G1 and how it would stack up against this Tilt. I like WinMO and feel like i am getting more proficient with modding it. Is there going to be alot of things that the Tilt will do that the G1 will not be capable of? or vice versa?... Thanx for any thoughts... 1st Post so bear with me....

Welcome to the forum
My vote goes for Tilt because WM is a more mature OS than Android, perhaps in the future will be a good OS but by now I´ll stick to WM
Hands down the Tilt with WM, but no 3G. I find the tmob edge speeds & battery usage very good. I'm looking at the TP2 w/3G when it comes to tmob usa Jul 22nd!
btw what is soooooooooooooo good about andriod other than it is not by MS? heee
I've used the tilt, and by now I have to say I like the G1 a lot more. There's no lag that accompanies WM, and it's just been a great experience with Android. Especially now with all the great ROMs being cooked, plenty of apps to choose from in Market, and overall awesomeness + ease of use.
Thanx for the input so far.... its not that android is so good just that Tmobile doesn't have any other PPc's from HTC that run on win mo and i thought i would get a lot better speed with the 3g... I hadn't considered the Battery!!! I tried a Touch Pro w/Sprint for a few weeks before going to tmobile but it was impossible to lock the screen... it would wake up for every voice, text, or email message or if the key board was opened even a little... the phone ended up have many apps running all the time and it killed the battery... i had to charge it 3,4 times a day... HTC told me the HTC branded phone didn't do it.... the Sprint and verizon version both have this flaw... Sprint repair center told nothing they could do.... i had one the first week they came out.... i don't know if they have jumped on that yet...
I'd go with the Tilt, but it's close.
I've got a Tilt, and my son got a G1 about 2 months ago.
His hardware seems snappier to launch apps and in screen transitions. The integration of apps on Android is pretty cool as well. Infomation from one app is easily shared with other apps in the platform. There are WM apps that do this, Live search, and SPBMS3 come to mind, but in Android it feels seamless. the Google maps experience of street view on the G1 is also quite cool and uniquie to that device.
What WM (Tilt) has over Android, and someone above mentioned as well, is maturity and breadth of app (and mod) availability. With mostly free apps, my Tilt can do just about every cool thing the G1 can do, and more. If you like the Android look, Throttle Launcher can give that to you. The availability of apps for WM is many multiples of what is out there for Android (so far).
I will say that network speed definitly pushes me toward the Tilt. That is one area that he and I have done head to head comparisons. I'm on att, and my HSDPA, available even at my rural home, blows Tmob edge out of the water. If I had to go back to that, I'd be a lot less happy with any device.
I hope this helps
almost just for the face of 3g i would go with the G1 , my girlfriend has one and from experience i can say its a pretty great phone !
Hi All,
I have been researching the new HTC EVO 4G, and i love it. I have been an iPhone suck in the past and have finally realised why apple should stick to making things looks nice rather than function well.
I have been reading that the HTC EVO runs on the CDMA network which Australia had turned off in 2006,
Is there any modification that can be made for this brilliant phone to work in Australia.
If so please inform me as i will be buying one asap.
Thanks in advance
Hey, I don't believe there is anything you can do as you would have to replace the radio on the phone and associated firmware. Another down side to using the evo in australia is the is no 4g service available.
Technically (I think) it should work with Vivid Wireless which is a new WiMax provider. They are only in Perth at the moment, but are due to launch over east very soon.
The problem though is that Vivid is only an internet provider. If you wanted voice calls you would need to use their VoIP service (or someone elses).
Hi ppl,
I am looking for a device which is a UMPC + GSM Phone. The OS required is Windows so that I can sync it to my Office Emails.
I came across a very good device - HTC Shift but unfortunately it does not allow voice calls on GSM network - very disappointed.
Can anyone advice?
I have read threads where ppl have cracked smhw the HTC Shift and are using it as a cell phone. But I ain't familiar with that kinda stuff.
cheers,
HTC Shift had all that I had wanted.. !! Except the cell phone (voice calls through GSM) option ..
You could try the HTC HD2. It is an excellent device which has Windows Mobile (but is capable of much more).
Yep...HD2. Windowns based and works really well.
