Hello, I purchased a link of a well known internet auction site. The software was meant to remove the sim lock of my XDAIIS.
I ran the software as instructed, and now cant get anything from the phone part of the PDA.
I get no coverage on any network.
The rest of the PDA is fine.
Please Help

I'll try to keep it short.
Lost T-Mobile PDA. Bought an unlocked (I assume) AT&T SX56 off EBay.
Will not Active sync. Don't know why.
SIM will not register. Also asks for 4-8 char password which I do not have.
Phone recognizes T-Mobile Signal, but ignores SIM. Says emergency calls are possible, but I do not want to call 911 to check.
Lots of XDA software is already installed and operating.
So for those are the main issues. Hope this is the right area to post.
Looked around for answers for a couple of hours, with no luck.
Any suggestions?
Ummm As far as i know the xda's software blocks anything but O2 simcards.
I think the answer is to wipe the Xda's data, and install a non-branded verson of windows mobile '03.
I'm sure theres one on this forum somewhere, or someone will know where to get one.
Have you tried unlocking your device? Look here...

Hi Guys,
I just bought an XDA executive on ebay from the UK.
The seller said it was unblocked and hould work with any sim, but after recieving the unit and turning the unit on i cant get past the o2 screen and none of the buttons on the phone respond to once clicked upon.
Please advise?
Thanks!
Hi,
I think that you have to upgrade your EXEC with O2 shiped Rom that you can find it on the ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com login using xda user and pass xda and under folder Universal, i am sure that you won't have problems olso sure that the phone is unlocked couse o2 is giving it sim lock free phones
Kind regards

Then, For how to install it, there are many threads on this. I don't remember which one I used but I did and it worked fine.
Good luck,
Patrick.
Heya folks,
I wasn't too sure what to even look for in a search for this one.
I'm moving to the US, I have an Orange M2000. I've been offered a work-cellphone account, but I have to pay for the cellphone myself.
As I already have the M2000, I'd like to use it on Cingular for "Goodlink" services.
Apart from unlocking the network-lock to take the Cingular sim, is there anything else I need to do to prepare the phone? I'd rather not tamper with Rom's etc unless I have to.
thanks again

Hello, i was in the same situation last year with my XDA IIs. Moved from London. I have been using it on T-Mob US with no problems at all with regards to call reception, gprs, or sending and receiving sms. Only thing you may want to do is upgrade your radio rom to 1.15, seems to enhance reception a bit. Cheers.
Head over to the SX66 Standardization Project website & grab an extended ROM. Extended ROMs contain operator customization files -- grab them from the extended ROM & install them on your BA.

Hi there, I live in California and bought an Orancge SPV M2000 off Ebay from the UK, have unlocked it and it works well with my T-mobile simcard. But since it came loaded with the original Orange ROMS...I have had no luck trying to configure the MMS/GPRS settings on it. Tried every configuration found here on this site as well as other google sites, and even called Tmobile customer care rep for a walk-through. They didn't tell me anything new from what I've already found here, however, no joy sending an MMS at all
I have considered upgrading my extROM from Xelencins Tmobile for WIZARD ROM just to get the Customization settings. But I'd rather not do that since I am no pro at upgrading and don't wanna screw up my device if I can help it.
Can you tell me how you configured your MMS?GPRS settings to seamlessly work ? Mine just says "sending" forever and then times out and never sends it in the end
Please, any tips will do, thanks in advance...

Hi,
My Artemis is got a strange problem
Its from O2 - Orbit called...
When I'm inserting Orange, Vodafone sim cards I get the error - Sim invalid - fine.. that's means is locked
With O2 is searching for a network but is searching for ever...can't find anything.. when I'm going in Network settings and select manual is saying something about Cannot read setting from network...
With Virgin/Tmobile sim card is finding OK the network and connecting to it but cannot make any phone calls or receive.....
Has anyone had a similar problem? I have tried to send it back to O2 but said they will send me send me a new one... they sent it but I never got it... it got lost in post etc... they didn't ask me to send the faulty one first... I contacted them a lot of times but they don't want to send me another one so I'm stuck with this faulty one.. I have reinstalled windows mobile 5 then upgraded to 6 but I have the same problem...
Did you try out the simcard in another device/phone? If it still fails then just ask for a new one.
yes I tried that sim card and works fine in another phone
also I tried lots of simcards in the xda but none works
I do have somewhat a similar problem. I am using an O2 SIM card on the orbit. A number of times the phone keeps looking for the network. Initially I used to wonder whethe rthe signal is weak - but if I soft reset it (and sometimes takes a couple of times), it finds the network (all bars in the signal) and works OK.
I have changed roms and it hasnt helped.
Since both of you are using the O2 Orbit I guess it must be something with the device. Any chance of finding out when your devices were manufactured?
i have the same problem with htc p3300 - have got signal with some of my sims, but can't make a call - what coul this be? I have 2 devices with these faults!!!
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem on my XDA orbit. O2 and orange sims, just keeps searching for a network with vodafone and t-mobile getting a signal but not allowing calls.
I thought that the phone was locked so I used the IMEI-check web site to download the unlock codes etc. This appeared to run normally, but made no difference to the operation of the phone.
I've done hard and soft re-sets but these make no difference either. The device has rom 3.4.206.2WWE (dated 4/18/07) installed on it and I would need some advice on what to change it to and how to change it.
Thanks for any help that anyone can come up with.
Blocked?
Try updating\upgrading radio ROM. If that does not work then I can only think that the phones have been blocked\barred by the network provider. Try calling them and asking them.
I have been informed that if your orbit is still on contract then it is still under warranty even if it is 2+ years old.
hi all I've just updated my O2 xda exec using the WWE MW6.1 19174 build DarkForce rom release: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365335
Intially the update didn't take, so i had to use the mtty utility to enable me to re do the update, I attempted it again and this time it worked fine.
The problem I now face is that I can connect via wireless, bluetooth etc and it is very quick, but I can't seem to get any service signal! on the screen it comes up with 3G and then it looks for O2 service but it can't find it. I've set everything to UK and set the time and date correctly, phone service wise everything is on auto, although I have tried it manually.
I have the 1.15.00 radio rom and wondered if this may be the problem; to be honest I'm not really sure what the radio rom does. Would this have any effect on my phone service signal and would updating to a more recent version help, if so where can they be downloaded?
I also have a Nokia N73 and the O2 sim works fine in that, so I know the sim is ok.
regards Lee

Same here... any sugestions?
thanks
Hi I contacted O2 yesterday afternoon and asked if my xda exec had been blocked? apparently O2 had blocked the imei number, and was supposed to have unblocked it!
I think i need to explain why...
Once upon a time... I went shopping to asda and stupidly left my xda at the checkout, the next person along had their shopping packed because they were on crutches, the packer assumed the xda was hers so they also packed my xda in with the girls shopping. 3 minutes later I came in feeling sick because i'd lost my xda, only to be told no-one had seen it. I cursed the thief and I resigned myself to having lost it. I thought quickly and realised I was near enough to have an upgrade so i contacted O2 and got an N73, phew! that was close. Approx 2 days later I received a phone call on my home phone; the lady who had my phone packed in her shopping had found it after unpacking but had to wait to unpack the shopping as she was having a kitchen fitted - I could have kissed her, it restored my faith in people. In between all that I told O2 to block the phone because as far as I was concerned some git had stolen it. After getting it back I asked them to unblock it which they said they had done. but again in the meantime i had gotten used to the N73 and the xda had just been put to one side.
After the N73 novelty had worn off I went to my xda and upgraded it and put my sim in and that's where the story begins...
change radio rom.
I have a jasjar 1.13 radio with working all wm5 but not working with all wm6. I can no find 1.15 in ftp, wiki or smw else. 1.18 radio working with wm6.
Try and find a working radio rom.
