Does the Updated iMate ROM Fix GPRS issues with TT5? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi,
Please can you help.
I have an XDA2i and and thinking of Upgrading the ROM to the iMate ROM in order to try and fix the TT5 and GPRS problem of Freezing.
Does anyone know if this iMate ROM actually fixes this issue? This is the only reason why I want to upgrade.
Many Thanks
Lee

Don't Do it
Hey Man,
I have the i-mate but the GPRS problem still the same, i upgraded my device into new ROM 1.12 but they didn't fix it.
i sent them over 10 e-mails a month ago but they didn't answer yet and i think they are not going to.
Regards

same here
I have the xdaiis and cant get tt5 to work tried every version of rom avail for the xdaiis and the imate rom still no joy
I have tried all the simple fixes too

1.40 GPRS problem

Norwegian users are having a huge problem with GPRS connection. You can only connect to GPRS once. The next time you try it fails. You must either turn flightmode on or soft reset the device to get connected again.
This happened after Dangaard Telecom Norway released the 1.40 ROM upgrade.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Dangaard has not released a fix to this annoying problem!

I do have the same problem in Canada after I upgrade from I-mate website.
Having the same problem with t-mobile in the US. I have done more soft resets in the last 12 hours with this update, than the last 5 months with the old update..
Still no fix out to solve this ANNOYING problem?!
Same here. It is getting very annonying. I have tried everything from phonealarm to gprs control panel and nothing will make it so that the gprs is always on.
I hope someone finds a fix to this. I am almost tempted to go back to 1.39, hmmm, almost! :wink:
I solved my problem by removing EVERYTHING out of the extended rom and doing a hard reset. I am still slowly installing the extended rom files one at a time to find out which install is causing the problem.
GPRS is working perfectly since I did this. No problems connecting or re-connecting.
GPRS issues
Hey guys I'm using the Qtek version of the 1.40 ROM.
I'm also experiencing the same problem.
In addition, anyone find that whenever after using the camera, the screen brightness is always blasted to the fullest?
Kinda problematic huh?

XDA IIs and Bluetooth Problem.

When I turn on Bluetooth on XDA IIs, I got this error message :
"The bluetooth radio radio failed to turn on due to insufficient driver memory available. You must perform a normal reset before you can turn on the bluetooth radio."
Anyone can advise how to resolve this ? Soft reset does not cure the problem. Thanks.
have you upgraded to bluetooth stack version 3900 ???
if you have then im fresh outta ideas, if you havent find this at our FTP site,
ftp://xda-developers.com/
login and password = xda
got the same problem when i installed one of the bluetooth upgrades on its own. then i installed the new rom and everything was fine. not sure where the connection is but thought id share my problem
Problem solved.
By the way, what is the latest version of ROM for XDA2s, and where to get it from ?
Thanks.
So I was wrong.
After upgrading the BT upgrade, things was OK yesterday. But this morning i got the same error again.
Went to ftp://xda-developers.com/ as suggested, can anyone mentioned the filename of the ROM mentioned by thakkergaurav above ?
Thanks.
The latest ROM is 1.40
You can find it here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
Hmmm..... :?
This BT issue is really getting to be NOT FUNNY! :evil:
Running the new ROM 1.40 and BT 3900 I'm now getting the "no sound" problem on the handset and caller cannot hear me on a HS801!
I use the turn on/turn off BT trick or soft re-set and the handset is OK for a couple of hours but the HS801 still does not work even though its OK with my old PocketPC,a nokia and a Motorola V3!
Is there any consistancy with this problem? It seems the different ROMs, Radio Stacks and BT versions are being effected.
Well, emailed the tech support, and all they can say was ...
"There is a ROM upgrade in development which is in the final stages.
We request your patience as we are trying to release the upgrade as soon as possible."
And that was 2 weeks ago.
even my bluetooth is upgraded to 3900,
i get the same error message also..
i cannot believe a 96mb memory is still not enough
i never get this kinda nonsense when i was using the 5450 ipaq
my today plugins was all over the screen and I had never encountered low memory...
I had the same problem but I have a Harrier not a BA so I thought it was related to that and you BA guys wouldn't get it.
Anyway, the solution on the harrier was to
-turn flight mode on
-soft reset
-turn bluetooth on
-turn flight mode off
Hope this helps
Here is a possible solution from wiki:

Delete Run_BTTrayCE_10.lnk from your Windows\Startup folder and soft reset. Now you wont have the BT icon on the tray bar, but you wont have the no sound problem. If you still need bluetooth you can start it from the Windows directory as BTTrayCE.lnk.
Have fun.

Have not tried this myself, but I believe others have had success with it. You may want to save the file somewhere else, in case you want to reinstate it later...
Hope this helps

I posted this in another thread.
It really does look like a combo of the 1.40 ROM and 1.12 Radio Stack that is causing this problem (in this case, anyway. See sig). After trolling various forums, it seems that both BT build 3900 and 3500 are having the same issues.
IMHO it seems that the Blue Angel is trying to send the call to my HS801 even when BT is not activated.
Has anyone had a good look at the current radio stack? I've tried contacting Broadcom (BT chipset supplier) but it has been 3 weeks with no answer.
I've done the Run_BTTrayCE_10.lnk workaround but this is only a bandaid and I don't really have enough experience to attempt to cook the ROM. Any ideas?
I have a Motorola HS801 as well and I can receive calls just fine but when I make calls the other party can't hear me. I'm giving up on the HS801 - it's a cheapie anyway and I don't know of anyone else who's got it working either. Running BT3900

is the i-mate pda2 rom more stable than the xdaiii o2 uk rom

hi all!
i've got a very unstable xdaiii o2 uk
is the i-mate pda2 rom better?
i hope someone can help me cause its very frustrating!!!
thanks
Fantomas
personally, i found it better
Where can i find the latest i-mate rom????
I've found it better - though not significantly at least the lockups are less.
You can download it via:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=23736&highlight=pda2+imate
Cheers
Ant
thanks Jim and Anton!
an other thing, i'm getting lock ups with tomtom 3+ BT GPS. i know about the turn off phone method to stop locking but whats the point of having a pda phone edition then! so its got to be an other solution!
does the pda2 rom stops the above problem ? cause the radio version on the pda2 is higher! by the way i've already uninstalled o2 stuff!
or should i hard reset and go corporate on xdaiii (to see if lockups stops) before changing over to i-mate rom?
lastly! are the programs on the PDA2 excatly the same than xdaiii? (i mean all programs identical)
thanks again!
i'm impressed with this forum and all of you on it!
Fantomas
On TT3 I found lockups dropped substantially once I'd hidden the POIs - have you tried this? TT5 (now that I've added the POI and the 5.10) seems a lot better.
Some programs are not included like in the O2 version, but then also some things are included in the ROM as standard like the fax viewer, and also a copy of Skype. CallerID and MMS programs are still there as they're integrated into the ROM.

Phone problem - neither myself or caller can hear anything

Hi!
I have a problem with my QTEK9090. From time to time when either myself or caller calls to my PPC we can not hear anything! When I try to call back immediately the same procedure occurs. The only thing that temporarily solves this is then I do a soft reset of PPC. Until next time.
I have upgraded from original version 1.12.00WWE to 1.22.00WWE and to 1.40.00WWE. I got a beta version from technical support for radioversion (1.13.10) but without any success. I also have got a new SIM card.
Any ideas?
i have the same problems, and the same sys op... and i had applied all patch...grrrrrrrr :evil: :evil: :evil:
Is your BT on? If not turn it on and leave it on.
good luck
Hi!
Thanks for your replies. I will leave the BT on today and check any differences. Have you had the same problem yourself?
Hi!
matrix70 which version are you running? Have you tried different versions? Have you tried to contact technical support or Telia for this problem?
i'm italian and i bought ba in greece. I just have upgraded with 1.40wwe version, applied all patch...but the proble still here...grrr..i discover that it's coming when i try to use ba in fastest mode.. switching from an application to another in a very fast mode, or trying to recall quickly a number that it's busy.
matrix70 from version did you upgrade from, do you remember?
same problem here, i did read in another thread that this is a known problem and can only be solved by moving to wm5.
I have radio version 1.06.02 and will move to 1.11.00 to try my luck
now i have update from 1.40 to 1.42 and the problem it's seem disappeared.... but with this version i can't sync my calendar....wath a lolling problem ....
I have run with BT on for some days and the phone problem is not occured once.
Great to here that problem with phone is solved in next version.
I remember there was a thread a few months ago I think. I had the same problem when I got my IIs last July, but I just turned off the BT and up to now theres no prob..... I havnt upgraded my version yet, I still use the 1.31 coz everythings working fine
Search the forums for Unidirectional Audio patch. This will fix the problem. But you probably do need the 1.40 series ROM.
im having the same issues, anyone know how to fix it up???
sometimes cant make or receive calls till i make soft reset.
thanks in advance.
im running rom 1.40.
couldn't find "Unidirectional Audio patch"
anyone have any idea where can i find it? and if its really fixing this annoy problem
thanks in advance.
Hi!
You can find the patch here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/PDA2k_UniDirectional_Patch.sa.cab). It didn't help me at all. I still have problem when BT has been activated nextcoming calls I still can't here or the caller can here anything. The only thing that have helped me, from a tip in this forum, is to always have BT activated.
Regards,
Fredrik
Thanks for the answering m8.
I actualy have been experimented these issue with bluetooth off...
just tryed with bluetooth actived all time and seems to be working.. anyway don't like this fix at all .. consuming extra batery to make the phone working properly is ridiculous
i will try out the fix anyway.
Thanks.
there was a pollon here about this a few months back and 76% of the users in this forum experienced this problem to some degree. Never found a proper fix.
how come manufacturer companies havent take notice yet? or iven the supplied the proper fix to this? is a very important issue...
other licenses than Qtek 9090 got the same issue??? pda2k? and the other clones???? know about it???
for the moment i have to say by enabling bluetooth all time as working well so far ...

GPRS Problems in WM6

Hey guys,
I recently upgraded my T-Mobile UK MDA Compact III to WM6.
I now have an intermittent problem with the GPRS/Internet. Basically, if fails to connect.
From what I've read, I think I need to delete my current connection settings, and then run the CAB from the WM5 Rom.
Has anyone on T-Mobile UK, done this with success? If so, can you point me in the direction of the CAB file you used?
Cheers,
Tim
I just set mine up manually.
Go to T-Mobile Website, click on phone support
http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-advice/phone-support/
enter your phone number and follow instructions for setting up MMS and you get a .pdf with instructions to set up both GPRS and MMS.
Delete any current settings and follow the above instructions.
I too am getting these issues. I have recently upgraded to the WWE dopod WM 6 rom (official HTC release) 3.7.707.1. I started to notice that if my phone was out of reception for any amount of time GPRS would fail to reconnect until a soft reset was performed. I have added the radio 02.94.90 to try and resolve this but no joy. I have added the GPRS settings exactly as per the TMob site again no joy. GPRS Auth is set to PAP which I think is correct.
One point to note is that I have not installed any items from the Dopod ext rom.
Once I have soft reset the connection will be fine until I lose reception again.
Hi,
Same issue here with all WM6 ROMs I've tried so far (to at least some extend). Most noticable is irritating behavior in Google Maps with WM6. In WM5 when the connection is unavailable the GPS tracking just continues till data comes in again. In WM6 the result is an error message. It's one of the reasons that makes me consider going back to WM5 for quite a while now. New features are nice but if old ones aren't at least as solid as before it makes no sense when you need them.
Recently I bumped into the every same issue you describe (requiring a soft reset) with B&B 3.7.. Which is a step worse in terms of stability then what I experienced before. At the same time there have been periods that I don't bumb into the issue. So I'm not sure what the cause is. My guess is that it's triggered when you've been in a bad reception area for some time.. But I don't have any hard facts to confirm the exact trigger of the problem.

I thought i'd try hard resetting my phone today to see if it would help but still no joy. the problem appears to affect voice as well as data and only occurs after at least 15 - 20 mins out of reception.
any ideas folks? I would go back to wm5 but the tmobile rom isn't available.
Hi All,
I have thesame problem previously with my Wizard. Found out that one my today plug-in is the culprit. The plug-in is "Battery Status Today ......" the one that shows the , Operator's name, speed, temp, V, A etc of your PPC on the today screen.
I dunno whether this is true and working for anyobe but in my case, my GPRS back to normal after after disable the plug-in. You can try the same too.
Other way, is to disable all non-standard today plug-in, test your Egde/GPRS with connect and disconnect(pressing the red button for more than 3seconds).
Activate one plug-in at a time and do the same test. Hopefully, you can indentify the problem and solve it.

morisa
Downloading the O2 ROM to see if that helps.. I have a feeling it might resolve this issue (fingers crossed!). I will post back here if it does.
Cheers
Alex
Once off the tube this morning my phone connected straight up and downloaded my emails. I hope I'm not speaking too soon but I think the O2 ROM has resolved the issue which would suggest it is a bug in the Dopod SEA ROM.
I will probably get the radio upgraded to 02.94.90 at some today and test that too.
Cheers
Alex
02.95.90 is now available
