I've recently upgraded my O2 xda ii mini from WM2003 to Cotulla's WM6.5, and Radio 1.13
Everything's OK but except:
Whenever my battery drop down below 60%, it will display no signal at all, no service... And when click con Phone, Phone Setting, Sim Manager... It'll pop up: "The phone is not ready, wait 15 sec" => Then wait all day long with no result... (If I plug the charge, everything'll be fine)
I bought a new battery, and still not works...
And I don't know why, now, even the battery indicator gone mad... Always 0%, charging, when the phone running smoothly...
Sorry for my bad English.
How can I solve those problems now?
Hi,
are you sure you have radio 1.13?
So long,
MrFX
can you post some screenshots of Device Information and Phone Settings.? so that we can diagnose properly. . .
I don't know how to take a screenshot on my PDA, but I'll write it down...
Device Infomation:
ROM version: 3.06.00 WWE
ROM date: 25/12/09
Radio version: 1.13.00
Protocol version:1337.43
ExtROM version: <Nothing>
And Phone Setting:
Well, my network, I set to auto, not work, then I set to manual, but still can't solve...
Hi,
how the hell you've installed this rom with radio 1.13? If i tried this, there was a bad radio error...
Please try the radio 1.12 like described on cotullas site:
*You must have installed 1.12 or 3.00+ radio.

I've installed radio 1.13 first... Then install that ROM, and they're still work OK if battery is over 60%...
How do I down grade to 1.12? The 1.12 installer always said that the cable is disconnect...

Well, I did downgrade to 1.12...
Still the same...
Hi,
is it an old or a new battery?
I had also some problems with my older bat, it shows always a good status, but i was not able (with full bat) to flash any new ROM to the Magician, and sometimes the Phone was going down.
After i replaced the battery with a new one, the Magician works very well.
So long,
MrFX
Sorry, both the old one and the new one brought no good result...
Hi,
do you have the same problem with WM 2003 (now)?
So long,
MrFX

Ah yes... I think that's hardware problem
And another problem is:
Now my O2 will not sound anything out when receive a message or a phone call if PDA is off (it still vibrate though). If it's on, it sounds normally...
I don't know what the heck is going on... Everythings works fine before I flash the WM6.5 in... Even now I flash back to WM2003... It still screwed up...
are you sure you have downgraded to 1.12 wm2003se.?
if you still have that same problem, try to change network provider or change SIM, maybe you have a network bandwidth problem.
check the antenna pads if it's tightly intact, if there still no luck, you better find a technician.
ohh i forgot, the last time you upgraded your device did you use and run this file.? MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe if yes, then you should not be having problems with your network cause that file helps fix country id error.
Yes I did...
I tried another SIM from a different Provider, but no hope.
I cleaned the antenna, still the same.
Try a different battery. Nothing happen (still below 60% and no services).
Now, if some one call me or SMS, it has no sound at all, unless the PDA is turned on (that means the screen still show Windows menu, not black).
The Cotulla's WM6.5, the virtual keyboard: Sometimes the Delete or the Backspace key doesn't work at all, and I have to reboot.
If I press a hard button, it will show a message box said the short cut is invalid.
If I flash WM2003, then, I can't turn off the device by the side button. I must set it auto turn off after 1 min.
My country have no such technician for me to ask. Just a bunch of liars... ^^
May be it's too old, and I have to buy a new one.

before you buy a new one, do first an experiment so that we can corner the problem, you must downgrade to the original rom, just ignore the turn off button, i think it can be tweak in the registry.
follow this steps, this is my way of downgrading.
1.) download this rom http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Magician/MA_O2Asia_11200_920_11200_Ship.exe
2.) extract those files in a folder. (any folder name you like, use winrar.)
3.) run the file ROMUpgradeUt.exe
4.) download and save this file inside the folder where you extracted the files in step 1. http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/Magician/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe after you downloaded it, run it.
5.) follow the onscreen instruction until your done flashing.
observe your device if it still have the same problem.
I did try as you suggest...
The same problem... Nothing changed... And even still no sound when the PDA is "sleeping"...
I don't know what to do with this "thing" now...

T-Mobile branded MDA. Reflashed to a Windows Mobile 6 version by "mfrazzz"
1. Battery life. TERRIBLE. I think it might be the phone. Got two other batteries. One lasts about as long as the original one I had and the other last just a little longer. Have yet to try a 100% new battery yet. In about 5 hours off the chrager with maybe a phone call and a few texts, it will drop to about 70%. Any ideas?
2. My MMS does not work. I know its from when I switched it over to WinMo6 and all the "fields" are empty for the settings. Customer Care wouldn't help me so does anyone on here have the required information I need to put it?
3. My LAN does not work. Possibly another thing from doing the WinMo6 deal. When I go to the Comm Manager and click LAN, the little windows loading icon comes up and goes off with the LAN not turning on.
in regard to the MMS not working, run the cab i attached. after that i reccomend going into the MMS settings/servers and then selecting the T-Mobile MMS connection, go in there (you'll see server name and such) and go to the bottom and change "Connect Via" from T-Mobile MMS to T-Mobile Data. that works well for me. keep that cab handy for future use as well.

i charge mine everyday... that was the same with wm5, but i can get almost two days of some phone and lots of email if i have to (gets down to about 10%). i dont think ive seen any pocketpcs that can make it much past two days with normal use... but it should not drop quite that fast -> one thing to try is go down to the 2.19 radio and look around for the power saving cabs (for some network connections and memory card) that are also built in to the later roms. both together make a big difference. also put your screen brightness to the lower setting, thats what really sucks the power.
if you like the xda roms, try going to xda 5. or try any of the other popular roms, nothin's pandora, antc wiz 2.0, theloon's kitchen for a custom, boring 1622, any TNT rom, whiterat's WRCX, etc... keep trying em out
i advise you to flash to an official rom first to get rid of any corrupt registries.once you do that....flash your favorite rom and after flashing HARD RESET....i do this to be on the safe side....

you may want to do a search for "clean extended rom". when u flash back to an official rom, they generally have an extended rom...upgrading to a cooked rom usually doesn't upgrade the extended rom...has been known to sometimes cause battery drain issues.

On the battery life. My screen brightness is in the middle. My other MDA would last over a full day. Heck, I left it off the charger one night without one message or call and it dropped 1%. Now, I can do that and within 2 hours it will drop like 8%

hey we all learned it at some point
radio is the raw code that drives the "radio" in your Wizard. it tells it how to search for a signal, what to lock on to, how to switch between voice and data, all the code that is need for the basic phone part of the PDA to work.
the extended rom is usually used by carriers (att, tmo, etc...) to install their custom software for the branded device, i.e. wizard becomes mda or 8125. after first starting the phone, a file called autorun.exe starts loading extra programs that are added on to the base operating system. it also starts loading the CAB files from the extended ROM, 10MB worth in the case of the wizard. these are things like MyFaves, the connection settings for data on the TMO or ATT networks, the setup my email link, etc...
hope that helps...
Not to take away from anyone else's work, but I flashed the T-Mobile Boring ROM, and haven't had a hitch, once I got all the internet setting right. I also am running the 2.71 GSM, and I can honestly say my mda runs better now than it did when it was new. Battery life improved, too. I am also a noob, and tried a couple others before I flashed this one...this worked best for me, since I didn't want to do all the tweaking (yet ) that more advanced users on this board know to do automatically.

THANKS! Good to know the n00bs don't get flamed too bad here
Ok my IPL/SPL right now on my G3 device is 2.26. If I want the 3.08 can I go right to it or do I need to go down to the 1.05? To go from the XM6r3 to XM6r5 what do I need to do? Should I just be able to go straight to that? It already CID unlocked and stuff for the current version I am on. Just confused on how to go from what I have now to the new one.
Thanks in advance!
Please Help
Ughh. Just went to XM6r5 and I have the same exact problems.....
Battery life still terrible. When I was done reflashing I was at 97% and after going through the settings without one phone call or text its already at 87%
The WLAN is still not working. Go to the Comm. Manager, click on WLAN, the windows loading icon comes up like its going to turn on, the windows loading icon goes off and the WLAN never turns on.
MMS messaging still says "error syncronizing"
Still on the 2.26 ROM
BUMP. Battery went down 6% in 10 minutes.... Is there a way I can just get back to WM5?
Oops, double post.

Vodafone v1240 is wi-fi equipped and does not have the "hump" at the top. Ask me how I know. If your Vodafone is not a v1240, then it's not a Tornado.
However, I've never had a problem with getting it to work. I never tried it with WM5, as I had the phone all of twenty minutes before I flashed to WM6.

Fulfilling your request; ¿How do you know? LOL I didn't see your sig!
So P4bus, have you considered upgrading your ROM? Have you tried HARD RESET? That should reload all drivers and settings. Though you will loose any info/programs/data/changes that have been done to the phone since. Or perhaps, upgrade to WM6 or WM6.1 ? I strongly recommend Nitrogen's WM6, of if you want to go up to WM6.1 you can try GnatGoSpat's. He just anounced he's working on further changes and bug fixes, and will be re-cooking and posting new ROM about mid this week.

Hi,
I have a Tilt 8900 (w/o camera), with the latest AT&T ROM installed (w/o the customizations).
I successfully performed HARD SPL and verified this by entering bootloader.
I then downloaded the French radio fron the radio thread (this radio was reported to work well in my area) and successfully installed it (or so it seemed late last night).
The ZIP file I donwloaded from XDA included an RUU exe file and an NBH file (I think).
I extracted both files to my hard disk, ran the EXE file (its screens look awfully similar to the HARD SPL screens) and the installation went smoothly and quickly, including the final SR.
My Tilt returned to normal functioning (or so it seemed), ie various apps which I used - worked perfectly, and it also synched w/o any problems to my PC.
But then on the way to work I suddenly found that I had no sounds at all, in any app.
Following advice, I performed an HR from start-settings-clear temp, and this did not help (the Tilt still functioned well, though, and I could execute all apps).
I then performed a regular HR (by holding both soft key buttons and pressing the SR).
The HR went well, including screen alignment, date & time setup, etc. Then the phone showed the AT&T animation and the screen where the radio and ROM versions are shown, and then - WHAM- the screen went black!
I pressed the Power button, and the screen I received is filled with colored dots (as if it shows a 3d picture or something), and I obviously can't do anything further.
I repeated this procedure several times, nothins has changed.
I also took out the battery for about 1/2 an hour, no luck.
I'd appreciate any ideas.
Thank you.
What ROM and Radio are you using WM6 or WM 6.1?
If you have just flashed a 6.1 Radio and are not using a 6.1 ROM (or vice versa) you will have no sound.
Have a look at the Kaiser Radio link in my sig it will tell you the Radio Compatability with the OS.
Try flashing another radio, if you can't boot flash from the Bootloader Screen.
Thanks
Dave
If I read your post correctly, and you installed a new Radio ROM but did NOT install an OS ROM, then that is your problem.
The newer AT&T-based ROMs require a matching Radio in order for the sound and camera (n/a in your case) to work. If you want to keep your new Radio, you will need to change your OS ROM also.

Hi Dave,
I have WM6 with the latest AT&T ROM.
The radio I flashed is compatible with WM6 (it's the French radio), but it might not be compatible with the AT&T ROM.
Meanwhile I discovered that I CAN enter bootloader mode, so hopefully this is a recoverable situation.
I understand that I need to enter bootloader mode on the Tilt, enter AS on my desktop PC, in AS I need to remove the checkmark from connections-allow USB connections, connect the Tilt to the sync cable amd then run the RUU EXE file in order to try and reflash the previous radio. Is this correct?
Last, if this fails as well, would I be able to reflash the updated ROM (after entering bootloader mode)?
Anything else I need to do so that I don't totally brick my Tilt?
Thanks.

The times I've flashed through bootloader (and there have been a few!) I've never bothered disabling Activesync - just connect the phone to the USB and run KaiserRUU.exe. It takes a few extra seconds on the "Verifying Info on your device" screens, and then comes up blank in the "Current ROM" section, but I've never had anything fail to flash yet.

So this means that I need to revert to my original configuration (ie the updated AT&T ROM) and keep it that way?
I wanted to improve the radio reception, since inside my house I have virtually no reception. And I read several reports in our local PDA forum that this specific radio does improve things.
Also my GPS lost too many times the GPS signal (all of this did not happen with my HW6910).
Thank you.

If you want to use the other radio, you need to flash a non-AT&T ROM to your device. This is a very simple process, and there are many different ROMs to choose from.
What is the radio version that you want to use? This way I can suggest several upgrade options that will be compatible with it.
It seems that the french radio might be suitable
But basically, at the moment I prefer to stay with the standard AT&T ROMs, minus the customizations.
I read through the Kaiser radios thread. Several radios are non-optional since they are only for WM6.1. Other radios are older than the one that came with the newest AT&T ROM (can't remember the ROM version).
I do understand that the radio selection process is somewhat a trial and error process, but I'm concerned that I might have some serious problem while trying, and I don't really have that much time to play with this. And as it is, I still don't know that I'm out of the woods with my current problem.
I'm sorry, I totally missed the part about the colored dots showing up on your Tilt after the last HR. Are you still having this issue, or is the phone booting correctly and you just have no sound?
Same Problem
I have the same issue. After the flash I tried, I see colored dots once I tried RUU. After that when I reboot, I just see a blank screen. I see that AS is happening.
Before the flash it wasR 1.27.14.09. Now it is 1.27.12.11
How do I fix the colored dots issue?
everything OK now.....
I reflashed the original radio, as per the instructions here, and now the phone is fully functional again (emails, phone, WIFI, GPS....).
I must admit I was quite worried for several hours, and couldn't wait to return home.
Further, it turns out I've grown quite dependent upon my Tilt...
Last, the signal strength issues haven't gone away, obviously, and I've yet to find the proper radio.
Many thanks to all the helpful people here.
By the way, I'm still curious regarding the reason for the colored dots on the screen.
Until I reflashed the orgiinal radio,

Until I reflashed the orgiinal radio, all I had were the colored dots.
Following the initial french radio flash, and prior to the full HR, I did not have sound, bout the phone was fully functional.
After I performed the full HR (both soft keys + SR) - I received the colored dots screen, which rendered the phone unusable.
I have this same problem and can't get in bootloader mode!!
Any help!!
I bought a used universal three months agn universal was wm6.1 rom but universal freezes and i have about a 10 resets per day,i tray to change rom and radio rom to some of wm6 but still device work very unstable,universal just freezes and when i reset he works normaly even i tray to flash wm2005 rom but i have same problem,i begining to think that problem on my universal is hardware is that posible,do anybody have eny solution or opinion on my problem,maybe i have to install some fabrick rom or somethung like that please help i just want to my universal work properly and i want to dont have a 10 even a 20 resets per day,help!!!
It seems hardware problems maybe the battery, try another bat...
i already buy a new battery and he works good for 2days without crash but then same story,freeze
Could Be Hardware Or Software.
Could Be A Software Issue.
What Rom Are You Using And What Software?
HTC Home Is Known To Cause Lagging/Freezing On The Universal I Believe.
Also OverClocking G3 Devices Can Prove Unstable, Some Roms Enable Overclocking By Default.

I don't think so. Just one question your Uni freezes no matter what, or only when you power on? (turn on the screen)
uni works normaly during the work on it but when i put backlight of or stand by and try to turn on he freeze,or do not come back from stand by and have to reset.Or sometime when i do not turn backlight of ,he just stay turned on for 10min and when i tap screen he freeze,i also have a few freeze during the work on it
but that freeze during work are rare i can sey that they are normaly but real problem is from stand by
That happens to me, but it was the HTC Home plugin.
Try again Ranju's - v7.6, remove SD card, and don't put anything (contact's, etc) or install anything on it!! Sim card only and test it for a while...
thanks i will try later because i nom test some wm2005 rom and it seems that work good but i will see in a few days also i will try ranju,i can see on forum that he is one of the best
IE problem

Many roms are settings "Performance applet" in 624MHZ. This is my problem in all roms, but setting "Performance applet" in 520MHZ solve my problem and not random freeezes and never reboots!
My english is very bad!
ROM is one thing to look but Radio is also something you need consider. if your reception pure then universal may freeze
i try diferent radio roms,now i use ranju 7.7rom and 1.15 radio and still i have 2-3 freeze on day and also 3-4 restarts

My advice would be to reset partitions, instructions are in the wiki.
After resetting with MTTY, flash the rom of your choice, but also flash the radio and a blank extended rom image, all at the same time.
If you still have problems after this, it could still be a battery issue, there are lots of bad batteries being sold on Ebay that do not provide enough power for all the devices functions, especially when using WM6 and Wm6.1 Roms.
Please reset with MMTY as above, and post back your results, if you are still having issues after this, charge the battery, and test with a full battery and powered device from the mains.
Cheers,
Beasty

Yes - the commands "task 28 55aa" should reset the partitions (via the MTTY tool)
As for testing your battery - you should get a couple of days and it should drain to about 5-15% before dying, if not check the wiki
Hi, Guys.
I have very strange problem :
A few days ago, suddenly I got No GSM at boot screen.
First, after some reset, it show My Radio version back.
But now, I must take out my battery for about 1 or 2 minutes and then put my battery back in and then power on my Universal to get my Radio Version back. Or else it show No GSM.
I have do SIM Unlock, reflash original ROM. But the problem still occure. My device is Super CID already.
What going on with my Universal? I cannot get my radio working with soft reset.
If my radio broke, why I can still get it with battery take out and in?
Note : I do Radio upgrade, with take the battery out, and place the battery in, and then hold Bulb button + Reset + Power. Or else it will give me error 114.
Now I'm using Radio 1.15 and ROM Tomal 8.5. I post this with my Universal + Opera Mini 4.2.
Thx for Ur help, Guys. Cheers...
PS : Sorry for my bad english...
Problem Solved!
Problem solved!
Hi, guys, finally I found the solution for no gsm... (for me... Maybe it can help other...)
First, U must have your radio version on Ur boot screen. For me, I take my battery out for at least 2 minutes, and then put it back in. And then power the device on. Then U should see Ur radio version.
Second, U change Ur Network selection to manual, wait, and then choose Ur Operator.
Third, On communication manager turn off, and then turn on Ur Phone.
It works for me, may not be to other. Just try to share...
I really2 hope this can help others..
Cheers... And Good Luck.

Hi, hacker_boy3, It works for me, may not be to other. Just try to share...

If still not, try to reset...
If U cannot pass this step (Still show no gsm), I'm affraid that Ur Radio Hardware is fully damaged.
Second (If U can pass this the first step), U change Ur Network selection to manual, wait, and then choose Ur Operator.
Third, On communication manager turn off, and then turn on Ur Phone.
It works for me, may not be to other. Just try to share...

Just wanna share, may be it can prevent No GSM..
Hi guys, at last my uni get no gsm (when I pull out the battery.. (duh!)... If U're succedd with my step, please don't pull out the batterry)...
Any way, I bring it to repair centre.
After My uni fixed, the repair centre said that every pda must turn off radio every day, cause as far we know, our device can't be turn off (unless we pull out&put it back without press power button). So our radio can get rest... (hmmm now I know why my uni get no gsm.. cause it never turn off and always on for years! Can U imagine that... The Uni radio always searching for signal 24 hour 7 days for years...No wonder my uni radio get broke...)
Anyway, from now, everynite I turn off my uni radio and turn it back on in the morning... Also, now I use ROM Tomal/Ranju 7.7 (cause this ROM can still boot quick&correctly with no gsm...(just prepare if the problem occure again..)
Thanks.. Hope this is right and do a little help...
