I had an AT&T SX56 phone and it worked great. I just bought another one because mine broke. I used the sim card that was in my old phone but it doesn't pick up ANY network. When I went to manually choose a network, they were all European networks. Nothing from the US was even listed. It has a somewhat different software that I am used too. When it boots up it says it is running xda-developers Special Edition ROM V1.2. Is there anything I can do to fix this all up Also, the desktop is a bit cluttered for me, is it possible to have just the standard AT&T desktop?
i think it has something todo with different bands (900 1800 1900). but don't know the exact details.
maybe try a search on band selection?

It helps alot .
Have you tried entering bootloader mode and choosing 900/1900 from the gsm menu?
after reading this post I am wondering if you can somehow change the band that a Qtec 2020 runs on. right now mine runs on 900 usa but I'm wanting to change it to 850 usa cingular uses it and it has a much stronger signal in my area. Please let me know if there is. thanks
I have a QTEK PH20B. I need a Firmware that will allow me to change the band. currently when using the phone, it does not pick up on the 1900 band. always no service, but it works fine on the 900 band.
device information
ROM Version 1.40.00 WWE
ROM Date 03/10/05
Radio Version 1.12.00
Protocol Version 1337.42
Ext ROM 1.140.147
it's a triband phone it should be able to do it automaticly if anybody use 1900 which i think they only do in US
its supposed to be Quad band
it doesn't pick up the network automatically..
other Pocket PC have a phone band option where you can choose betwen Europe and the US
which one ?
the walaby have in the boot loader but it dont work
the hardware is hardcoded to 900/1800 or 900/1900 and changing the option in the bootloader dont help anything of cause it's not triband it's dual[/code]
some pocket PC has option
I cchecked the specs on the QTEK 9090 ... its supposed to be a Quad band
the HP6315 has the 'phone band' option
1 maybe it's broken
2 maybe your sim dont like 1900
2 maybe there are no 1900 covering where you are at
3 maybe somebody in the blue angel forum who can help you
that forum is specialy for your device and you are bound to get
more owners with exp with the device to read your post
Hi to everybody!
I love this forum becouse there are a lot of kind peolple and becouse i usually found here the answers to my question
I bought a T-Mobile MDA (htc hermes, tytn) with simlock. i used the unlocker in the same way i did with the hermes of my girlfriend. Now my sim is accepted, but at home i have no signal. my operator is WIND (italy) and it can be discovered and fixed if I go outside.. At my home Wind signal is well as i can see by other phones with wind simcards. when i look for networks on the hermes, it says there are the two other italian networks (TIM and Vodafone) but not the one i need. the problem appear only with wind simcards and other sim works well. i've changed the radio rom with upper and lower, but the problem is the same. can someone help me? thanks a lot!
in the start/systems/settings/device information, what is the radio version? is it wm5.0 or 6?
now is 1.50.00.00 but before i used the lastest (1.56.70.11) with the same results. wm6 pro original by t-mobile. thanks for your attention!

looked like the italian releases comes with 1.47.00.10 so you may want to tryt hat.
i used radio rom 1.47.00.10 but it's the same... in the same desk my htc hermes and my nokia 9500, both with a Wind Simcard: the nokia fully working, the other one says "no service" :-( but my answer is why only with sim of this brend?

and you swapped sim cards?
I have two different sim by wind and i swapped them, but the one in the htc phone never works. if I put another sim, like a Tim or Vodafone sim, it works well! damn.. :-( in the same place, htc can't discover Wind Network and Nokia or other phones can (and i found the maximum signal power..)

In the phone pannel of the settings there is a bands page, make sure its on automatic.
yes both first and second options are on "auto"...
well the only thing i can think of is wind is still a growing network, link didn't work the nokia would probably pick up the E900 frequency, compared to the hermes only GSM900/1800 which is still expanding, as you said outside your house it works OK. You'd have to wait and see I guess how the expansion is going.
dear zocster, Wind is a big italian mobile company, and the same sim card in the phone of my girlfriend (the same htc hermes, t-mobile branded too) works perfectly!!! :-( do you think i should ask to an htc tech center? i'm so sad... ;-) thanks a lot for your time, and thanks to veyka too!
I HAVE A NEWS: if u use a H3G sim on my HTC HERMES (www.tre.it) my phone discover only the roaming network and not the H3G network... can this new info be useful to understand what's going on to my phone?
hi friends.
i have diamond 2g india version. i also wanted to buy diamond 3g. a friend of mine is offering me diamond 3g which is security unlocked but am not sure if its sim unlocked. only vodafone and idea networks worked on it and not airtel. so i tried updating its radio to 1.11 and also its rom to swtos lite and now even vodafone and idea is not working on it.
that is no operator network works on it now. what do i do.? also i wanted to tell u that this model is the testing model which htc released to ppl who review the device before its launched. does it makes any difference?
also is it sure that it is sim locked and OLIPRO's sim unlocker will solve my problem?
?? help plzzzz!!
i am sorry . idk bout the 3g ... try with another 3g phone
Airtel's GSM Network frequency is different than that of Voda / Idea and BPL.
if ur device could work on voda and idea that means it is already unlocked. Just try and insert another sim and confirm that.
Also I would suggest Radio 1.08.25.20 which is quite stable.

I recently went to India and took my unlocked UK Diamond there and it worked on ALL three of those networks. I just left the network frequency/band on AUTO.
Hi
I've had a Compact IV/HTC Diamond for a good while now. Very familiar with flashing roms/radios etc, and looking for advice.
Wanted to use the phone with a AT&T sim whilst in NY,
Phone is fully unlocked and tested in UK, but when I put a PAYG AT&T sim in NY it just states that phone isnt ready and no network is found.
I suspect that this might be down to the RADIO ROM - looking for somone to point me in the right direction to a suitable radio if this is the case...
GSM is available in the area according to at&t website, so rules out the WCDMA (UK) vs CDMA2000 (US)...
Phone will now be mainly used in NY on AT&T if I can get it working with your help... (father in-law just moved out there with one of my diamonds!!)
Help? Thoughts? any help/comments appreciated
Thanks
