Stupid question but have you restarted the phone?
you could try to re register your device on your network
Settings...wireless & networks....mobile networks.....network operator.......search network
And select your network

I'm certainly no guru
I'm afraid no ideas...although I'd be tempted to say it's probably an operator issue and not related to the update

did you solve the problem mrs been having the same problem on her desire s on tmobile and a friend also using the desire s on tmobile wonder if its network or phone problem

I have had this problem since an OTA update from my provider (O2).
I have put it down to the known issues which are outlined in this thread...
Ah I can't post threads...google android forums signal drops completely htc desire s
(androidforums.com/htc-desire-s/396171-signal-drops-completely-htc-desire-s.html)
I have put my phone on GSM only and no problems at all, as soon as I switch to GSM/WCDMA Auto. I get lots of issues, delayed txts, calls to me go straight to answer phone etc.
Running 2.3.3..........hoping to update soon, which, fingers crossed with help the issue

i have exactly the same problem without the answer phone.. just the delay sms.. and i was using it on gsm only also... but i sent it to service.. and i will tell you if the problem is solved

I has also that problems when I bought my Desire S, a lot of them, but, after install Saga3D rom and after that Endymion 2.1 I don't have that problems...

I have the same problem, Desire S in the UK (with CM7). Phone calls also go through to answer phone without ever being notified as well.
This really sucks.. A phone that doesn't work as a phone.
The only temp fix I've found is to dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone information and change the mode to GSM only. Unfortunately, this means no 3G data connection. So really slow internet.

Dude check if the calls are going to voice mail directly....cause our customers come with the same issue and we give them the steps to turn off and on the voicemail and it works fine....

Yea, they are going straight to voicemail. I've reflashed Cyanogenmod today, and so far it's been working ok...
Judging by this forum, it doesn't affect everyone, but a significant amount of people do suffer from it.

[Q] Radio issues with Nexus S, Hardware problem?

Hi,
My Nexus S is having a strange issue that when turn the phone on it picks up that I'm on Orange UK but from then on it says emergecy calls only or no service but shows signal in the status bar. If I try and call someone I get no mobile network messages but I can get a data connection and use the Internet although very slowy. Strangest thing is that if I put no sim card in the status bar still shows signal.
I've tried different radios and tried both Offical stock 2.3.4 and CM7 7.1.0 but same results, I've also tried turning 3g off but I'm now out of ideas so can anyone give me some tips please?
Thanks
Can you give specifics? Phone model, Baseband version (found in Settings >> About phone). Not all radios are the same and you can end up bricking the phone flashing wrong radio version.

You cant brick your phone flashing the wrong radio....youll just have to have the correct radio as a back up. I flashed every radio for the nexus s and its not bricked.
Anyway, the standard radio the i9020a comes with is the UCKF1 or KB3 as I have heard. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884 is where you will find the radios. Just flash the correct one. How you will know whats the correct one is it will be stated after the phone model. for example I9020AUCKF1 the A after I9020 is for the carrier ATT and after the thats the radio it came with. just reflash the correct radio through CWM and you should be ok. If not PM and I will help you further

Flashing I9023 radio on I9020 will brick the phone as it may not even boot into recovery, fastboot may not work too. Just a word of caution.

What the next step would be is to try a new sim card. Go to your carrier and ask for a new one. If same results then its the phone and I'll assist you more.

Managed to borrow someones sim card at work today and it was the same result so it does seem to be a hardware problem now.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yes. That would seem to me like the problem. I'm sure you restored your phone and completely wiped the SD? Also did you try pulling out the battery while the phone was on wait 30 seconds try turning the phone with out the battery then put the battery back in and turn it on? I'm sure you have done that you seem like a decently tech savvy fellow.
I've called Samsung before and I hate to say it but their repair policy is horrendous. You'll need another phone cause you'll be without yours for 2-4 weeks. They want to send "you your original phone back." Even their battery exchange is the same. You send your bad battery to them. They receive it process it then send you a new one. Motorola and apple have their repair department to be easy and quick which is what the consumer wants. More so apple cause you can go right to the local store and get a new one in 10 minutes. Motorola takes 2 days. Better than Samsung still.
Thats it for my rant! Just wanted to give you a heads up of what you will hear. Hope it all works out.

yea, try flashing a CDMA radio on a GSM phone and see how that works out for you!
edit: actually, this sounds exactly like the ns4g i bought the other day. try making an emergency call and see what happens. really, that's how i fixed mine.

I've had a similar issue in the past. Restoring my EFS made it work again.
But before that issue, I also had another problem where no amount of radio flashing and EFS fiddling would fix it. Sent it to Samsung and it came back with a form with a hand written note saying "BGA failure".
So I imagine this problem is more common than it might seem. *shrugs*
Restoring the EFS would have been one of my first moves but I was given the phone in this state with no backups made.
Just crossing my fingers that Samsung doesn't charge me a king's ransom to repair it.

Are you using a stock, or custom ROM?
same here
Yes, I have the same problem, occurred exactly right after the Android version upgrade of my Sensation.
I'm in touch with HTC support, but of course like all support channels, it's very hard for the guys to understand what the symptoms are. I keep telling them that I can't see any networks to try to connect and the guys keep telling me to disable mac filtering on my access point...
Anyway, I'm on it. If I can reach a solution, I'll let you know.
update
OK, here we go...
I have removed the SIM card.
I left the microSD inside.
I did a factory reset.
WiFi works perfect... After one hour it is still OK.
I shut down and insert the SIM card.
The auto-config for APN starts and triggers the 3G connection.
3G is fine.
But WiFi is dead.
Again, it detects the APs nearby but then it shuts down in one second...
Then can't detect any APs, of course...
I shut it down and remove the SIM card.
No luck, WiFi is still dead.
I have updated the guys in HTC support...
Let's see what they'll come back with.
Here in Andorra, we´ve the same problem After Update.The same problem. Its something about the Country Of the SIM. Here, if you put an Spanish or French SIM, WIFI OK. BUT if you use an Andorran´s SIM: WIFI DEAD...
I have the exact problem.......
I expect it solve in a week or two by HTC otherwise.... No more HTC after the XE
I have the same problem. The problem appeared after upgrading from GB to ICS. When I returned to the RUU - the problem still occurred. In general, helps clear the Dalvik cache - but after a while the problem comes back.

Sorry was travelling and did not see the posts. It was such a major problem not
having wifi while travelling. Lots of the airports had free wifi and i had to keep
pulling out my PC to tether
I am on stock ROM.
Any solutions yet??
Same problem here. Wifi stays stuck on "turning on" and will never turn on. Sometimes it says error. Also, bluetooth exhibits the same symptoms, except it gives up after a while and just goes back to off.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yeah I have the same problem.
Hboot:1.27.1111
Unlocked HTC Dev Bootloader
S-Off
Wifi on and off
Same problem here:
Sensation
ROM: CM10 by Bruce 2728
Firmware 3.33
S-Off
Did Revolution method
Hboot 1.27.11
I've tried many different roms, wifi works sometimes. Then it will turn on and off continuously, getting my hopes up then leaving me frustrated. I can't believe I'm considering getting another phone because of this stupid wifi issue.
Do you also have problems with getting notifications when wifi is on? For example whatsapp or gmail?

It's like it will work for a few days perfectly, then this intermittent behavior happens. My EDGE connection kicks in and I get notifications alright but my plan only has 150MB per month. (please don't laugh as I live in China, and don't laugh that my 4G phone is running EDGE). So I need WiFi to work all the time.
same problem i try manny roms but cant get the wifi to work did u guys find any solution?
I found a solution and you're not going to like it, I sold my Sensation and bought a Samsung Galaxy S3. Sorry HTC, byebye to you.

[Q] does anyone have rebooting issues?

Hey guys, I've had my HTC One S for T-Mobile and ive had it for about 1 week and it has rebooted on me twice so far. not sure why. the first time it was in my pocket and i heard the T-Mobile boot up animation sound go off in my pocket and pulled it out my phone to see it was just booting up for some reason. then today i was going to look at my friendstream widget (on my home screen) and my phone locked up for a second and then rebooted itself. i'm not happy about it since i once owned a g2x which rebooted like crazy. i'm hoping it stops randomly doing this crap but i reported it to HTC since it gave me the option once it rebooted. my HTC one s is rooted with the stock rom with bloatware removed and carry IQ removed. i just wanted to see if i'm the only one having this issue.
It happens to me too :/ sometimes i wake up in the morning and i see the HTC error message. Maybe a software issue?

i dont think there is an update for the tmobile htc one s.
Two days since I bought it and already rebooted two times when exiting the mail client while network was switching from H to 3G. I upgraded it to the latest firmware OTA just after putting the SIM card into.
My son had a problem with random reboots. After enabling Best Wifi Performance in Wifi, advanced settings, they went away. This is on a TMOUS version. Could be totally unrelated to your issue, but worth a try. I've noticed that the wifi has some weirdness to it, like hanging on to a connection long after it's out of range. I hope there is a software update soon.

yeah i guess here in the US we havent got an ota update that i know of. i kept checking for updates but it said my one s is up to date.
Another reboot this morning. This time I received a txt thru Facebook Messenger. I saw it on my desktop and ear, exactly at the same time, the HTC One S rebooting. This might be app related this time.
My One S specs:
- EU edition
- Stock ROM, 1.78 OTA
- Wifi disabled
Yes my H1S reboots about 3 times a week, or the "Loading ..." window is seens 3 or 4 times a week as well.
one more time... I'm gonna consider switching to another ROM in a very near future.
rebooting on 1.78 stock and other custom roms too
Hi guys, I had this issue with stock rom on 1.78 and previous too, so it is probably a radio issue. If I am connected to my wifi network at home, then I go out, the phone switches to hsdpa (as it should) and then I come back home,the reconnection to the wifi network causes the phone to reboot.
I had this issue on all roms I used, both stock and trickdroid 3.1 / 4.3.
My wifi direct is already disabled, my location is Italy. I have seen also that people on the US T-mobile support webpage are complaining about something very similar, wifi related.
Thanks
I'm on tmous and have had two of these reboots since I got the phone on US release day.
As others have said, mine have only happened when I'm on the very edge of my WiFi coverage. It's like the phone can't decide which network to grab on to and freaks out. I don't have the issue when it's just normally switching from WiFi to data like when I go out and then come home. It only seems to happen when I'm right on the edge of WiFi for a few minutes.
Not a huge deal, since its only happened a couple of times. If I remember when I'm off this week, i'll try to get a logcat because I should be able to reproduce it at the edge of my back yard
that would be great, as it sounds like it is the same issue. I always found tricky to save logcats due to amount of information in them and spotting the exact reason for crashing.

[Q] randomly lossing signal any fix or idea ?

Just get one s and everithing is working fine except phone losing signal I mean am in same 4g area, but phone shows no bars, big X sign and that's it.
Restart phone or airplane mode on off is restarting connection.
I can't find any situation when this is happened so to me this is randomly
Sim card is changed for small one in T-Mobile store.

It was found that the fast dormancy feature is not compatible with all network carriers.
Therefore, fix for that (only for ROOTed phones) is available using a change to the build.prop file.
The needed change is detailed here:
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=1 change to =0
I have just spend 2 hours on phone coping first HTC and T-Mobile.
In HTC they told me there is issue with towers in my area.
I call T-Mobile and after 1 hour 30 min they figure it out they have technical issue with towers I ask why my wife's wildfire S is doing great "my personal technician" it depends on witch tower, witch channel and finally witch device so hopefully they will fix floating signal in 72 hours and that's will close m y case. If not HTC this time will not get any reason to denide warranty and will send me new phone

Standard CS BS. I think you'll find that the new phone will have the same problem. I believe it is a radio issue. I hear flashing the European radios helps but not brave enough to try.

I'm also having this problem.
Just randomly the phone will just disconnect from the network. Takes it about a few minutes (1 to 5 minutes) then it suddenly reconnects.
I've heard changing the micro-sim was a fix but that didnt work for me. I thought maybe it was a ROM issue but I've been rooted for about 2 months now (the issue started happening a day later).
Has anyone actually tried the build.prop fix?
Well after yesterday phonecalls TO HTC and t mobile situation gets a lot better.
Usually was 10 15 times per day today only 2 times on lunch time.
I don't know maybe my phone get a better day or they really fixing something
We will see tomorrow

I think i read that's a prob with the US Tmo variant. Radio. Supposed to be fixed with latest RUU 1.84. If not, go bug HTC about it. Most likely their crap.
You could also try to flash the latest Radio from EU RUU 1.78 (0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L) which is one generation ahead.
Check my MediaFire folder. Got the zip's in there. untested though. need be brave for this. And u'll need a custom recovery. and be unlocked of course.

Don't let HTC fool you. Their ICS radios SUCK. Same issues with the Amaze 4G when it updated from GB to ICS. Its not the towers
I think I'm gonna flash the EU radio just because I've got nothing to lose at this point.

The EU radios are not a problem for the device. They also work in the US. The problem is rather to get them flashed. I couldn't really swap radios. My device just didn't accept the flash.

I've also noticed it's gotten better so something is changing somewhere. But still the problem persists.
FWIW, I've rooted every device I've had since the G1 (6 devices[G1, N1, G2, MT4G, MT4GS and 1S]) and never had any issue initiating a warranty exchange or getting warranty service.

It flashed alright with success message but the radio didn't change. The chip wouldn't accept the write. Probably S-OFF required.
I've spent some two hours waiting at the hospital today and had enough time to check out the connection under bad signal conditions.
I must say, the HOS radio of the latest EU ruu is having severe problems with keeping the connection alive. Even my HD2 with gingerbread was a lot better. This phone suxx with bad signal. And this is not in the US where this problem has mostly been reported. This is in Germany.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one. I really like this phone a lot but with the signal dropping so much I really want to change phones. I bought it off wirefly so in pretty much stuck with it for the next two years.

It happens to me too sometimes. I just flashed the latest European radio and it worked fine for me.
I'm having the same issue. I've tried three different radios and several different roms and now i'm back to stock by using a restore I had before going crazy on my phone with the available roms... It seems that the stock rom drops signal as well. It just elegantly drops the connection and then reconnects whereas all the custom roms I've tried don't. Not sure what to do... I mostly purchased the One S for its hardware.
These are the radio's I've tried and they all have much of the same problem on my phone.
Radio from RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.78.401.2
0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L
Radio from OTA_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2
0.16.31501S.16_2_10.22.31501S.10L
Radio from Stock T-Mobile US
0.16.31501S.02_10.18.31501S.08L
If anyone knows of a fix for this, I'd be more than happy to try it.
After hours with t-mobile personal technician they figure out they will replace my phone. Phone was bought on craig's list - something like e bay but free - and what's interesting T-Mobile will exchange for new one. We will see what's the story with new one
good luck to everybody

I`m having signal issues, as well. Whereas my wife`s phone has very good connection whatever the places we`ve been to, mine was struggling. And strange ups and downs with full and suddenly no connection at all within same area. I tried several ROMs and flashed the latest radio but still suffers. Regardless I`m in an area with full signal, when I switch to 3G then the signal instantly drops some bars. Very annoying....
Hi @ll. To me subject is over. Im using new replacement phone for 3 days and none of previous problems appear. I have no clue what was a problem. HTC blame t-mobile and t-mobile blame HTC. After all I get replacement device and 3 days phone work without any problem. Battery life is now much better because phone is not looking for signal. Still signal is floating but it is not going under 2 bars and device is all the time login in network.
So good luck to everybody. Greetings.

So even if I flash the stock ROM and put a custom ROM (like CM9 for example), this problem will not be fixed ??!! Even if I update the radio ?

(Ville C2) Possible data connection issues

Hi All...
Previously, I'm using SGS3 before i gave it to my brother and using HTC One S C2 instead.
Since the very beginning, I'm having an issue with my data connection and it is very very very annoying till i felt paranoid whenever I'm browsing the net using my phone, scared that it will disconnected anytime randomly which is ALWAYS happened.
Sysmptoms:
When i received SMS, it will disconnected.
When it is idle for quite some time, it will stuck at 3G icon and disconnected eventually before reconnecting.
Sometimes, after disconnected, my internet won't work even though i have 3G icon showing and even H icon sometimes.
None of it happened when i'm using SGS3 so i know for sure it is not my SIM nor my provider issue. IT IS the phone but i don't think it is the hardware issue based on the symptoms.
I have done many things, i have revert back to stock, run back ICS RUU for my CID, supercid my phone, update the firmware, s-off it, s-on it back, just name it, i have done everything for few weeks and the issues still haunting me.
I have tried searching on the net but couldn't find anything related to ville c2 though i found a lot of people with quite similar problems (though not 100% same as mine) but not from someone using C2 and most of their fixes is changing some parameters in build.prop which doesn't fix anything for me.
So, i checked my radio catlog and found some interesting logs in there. It seems that my phone keeps doing teardown request which renew my connections. And i know it is related to the stale time of my connections.
EDIT: It seems like the stale time cannot be set using sysctl.conf, now i'm trying another method and ready to waste another more time to figure out why the heck these happened to me. Maybe a combo of this device + my carrier or what. **SIGH**
Anyone who have same issue or have an idea what else can be done to ELIMINATE these issue, please don't hesitate to share it.
Just an update to my issue.
So i have flashed the latest indian cid 38 OTA firmware into my phone under desperation and disappointments. But to my surprise, it is way better than when im on firmware for cid 44 which is supposed to be my phone's cid. Its now has been more than 5 days and i had the previously mentioned issues only ONCE.
Yes sometimes data suddenly slows down or sometimes "frozen" and stuck at 3G and sometimes suddenly goes to E before up to H again (in the middle of browsing or downloading) but the original super annoying issues of disconnections especially when sms coming is GONE.
Wth htc??? Grrrr.....

Try applying the build.prop fix for "Fast data" listed in the general forum. A number of folks with the exact problem you are describing are reporting resolution.
It appears it might be an issue with fast dormancy.
I believe I have the same phone carrier combo as you. I do not however have your problems. Where do you stay? East Malaysia?

That I'm not sure. I thought you're using DiGi since your picture has DiGi's logo in it.
