I have just thismorning installed the 3500 update and got my XDA 2s to connect to my Nokia car kit without loss of connection. (Got off the forum this morning).
However now i cant get any GSM connection to my SP. There is just a '!' next to my signal bar, soft and hard resets dont seem to have any effect.
On a hard reset (original O2 rom) when the pin code screen first appears if im quick enough and type my PIN in the connecting dots go next to the signal bar for about 10seconds while O2 stuff is installing then the symbol just go back to the '!'. Any other time the status symbol just does not change, it does not even try to connect but just representions 'no service'.
My SIM card works fine in other phones and there is nothing physical as far as I can see wrong with my XDA. I simply lost connection upon the installation and soft reset of my XDA after the i-mate bluetooth patch.
If anyone else has had this problem or has a suggestion for me then please let me know.
my msn addy is [email protected] if can/want to use that.
Thanks, Ben.
Also when i try to manually choose my GSM network, i.e. press on either of the 3 buttons, Find Network, Set Networks and Select Manual I get the messages "Unable to register on selected network. Choose another network, or disconnect your data connection and try again" for the first buttons and "Unable to read setting from network. Try viewing settings later, or dissconnect data connection and try again." for the second.
I have also had problem with my xdaiis displaying Invalid or missing sim card. Happened this afternoon for no particular reason, not had a chance to test my sim card with another phone yet but hopefully will be able to tomorrow.
Will let you know the results
I was advised to hard reset my phone multiple times, which i had done, and no change.
So i resorted to re-flashing the ROM,... using the available ROM on SourceO2. What i was not counting for however was that there was a mistake and the file which states for XDA 2s actually should be for XDA 2. As this proggy has erased my ROM, and then kindly informed me that I am usin the wrong version so does jack all.
Therefore I am now stuck with a dead XDA and no means of putting a ROM on there (seached for hours), cant find an XDA 2s ROM anywhere.
Hope you get yours sorted. Let me know if have any suggestions.
Ben.
I wonder whether someone could help me. My XDA exec is not detecting phone signals for a week or so. Phone menue and settings wont work and I am not able to search for network manually. Also the PDA working has become increasingly sluggish. On starting the screen it shows NO GSM at corner of the initial blue screen with bubbles. Soft and Hard reset didnt do anything. I have checked my sim in other phone, the sim is fine. Another thing is that device does not show the IMEI number
Can you help my
The gsm part of your phone is probably broken. I had the same problem and i had to send my phone in for service. They then changed the mainboard in the phone. I have since not dared to use the jasjar as it breaks to easely.
Recurring 8525 problem since upgrading to WM6 ROM (AT&T version). The phone will freeze completely (clock doesn't advance, screen and buttons and keyboard don't accept input, display freezes at on or off). When restarted by soft reset, the phone will frequently come back up with no GSM. When that happens, sometimes if I remove the battery and leave the phone off for a few hours then GSM will come back and will work for a while and then lock up again.
When it comes back with GSM service all of the network logon info for GPRS, my Wi-Fi networks with their auth info is gone.
Also email accounts are gone from the account picker and can't be re-created with the same names even though they have completely disappeared. I assume the settings are still in the registry but accounts just aren't showing. One account still shows on the Today screen, but isn't in the account picker.
A hard reset "fixes" things for a while. I've experimented with only installing a few of the most necessary 3rd party apps, without finding any "smoking gun" program that's causing problems. I've also re-seated the SIM card multiple times. I'm thinking it might be a hardware problem.
Today I flashed the radio to 1.54 and it has worked for a couple of hours without needing to be reset.
I'd be interested to hear what possible diagnostic paths I should look at before I call AT&T and begin the rigmarole required by tech support. Anyone with a very similar situation?
Thanks in advance.
I'm having the same problem. I was thinking of going to AT&T to get a new SIM, thinking that was the problem. Any solution yet?

I started having the same problem with mine last week.
Sometimes it locks up, sometimes it gets stuck at the windows logo durring boot, always displays no gsm rom on boot.
Take a look at the how to unbrick thread. no gsm rom msg is one of the types of brick.
I installed hard spl ( already had it actually ). Flashed os, but it didn't help. Flashed GSM and no gsm msg went away. The phone is still acting strangely.
remember, just because the rom came from your carrier DOESNT mean that it doesnt have problems. Alot of people seem to have problems with upgraded rom versions from their carrier and end up either downgrading to previous rom or flashing cooked roms. try the previous rom or another cooked rom and see if that fixes the problem before blaming the hardware. It will save you a major headache trying to troubleshoot something that is working perfectly....
Please remember to do a bit of reading and hard spl your device before going off and bricking your Hermes. 10 minutes of reading might prevent hours, days or weeks of hair pulling, nail biting insanity to find the answer. Cheers.
hello people,
I have my SVP M3100, original from orange spain - but CID unlock to work with portuguese carrier, now I live and work in Hereford UK, and I use a sim from Three and other from Lebara the three sim is to have net on my pc and the lebara sim is to make low cost international call, and i switch many times the sim's to make calls and to have internet, now i have the same problem that you have, i try to upload the HTC original rom that have IPL. BOOTLOADER, SPLASH SCREENS EXTROM GSM, but lock at 12% I try upload ongly radio rom and the same a think that somekind of hardware problem caused by to many sims switch, if any body have one solution please tell me

Same thing happened to me. Tried to reflash original ATT ROM , Radio Only, OS only. Gonna send it for the repair. Phone is not under warranty anymore hope that the price of repair will be less than price of new phone.
BTW, is there any way to remove Hard SPL from the phone?
how much was the price of repair?
Try changing you radio to a new one. i have had the same problems in the past with different radio roms and rom versions. so i am using radio 1.54.30.10 with pdavet roms and have had no isuue.

I've got exact the same symtoms. No GSM, network and auth settings gone, opera registration lost etc. It started a few days a go, in the beginning I had a working GSM most of the time, but it became less and less and now it doesn't have service at all anymore.
Currently device information shows:
ROM version: K's Rom v1.21
ROM date: 10/03/07
Radio version: NONE
Protocol version: NONE
Model No.: HERM300
IMEI: <empty>
Does anyone know a permanent solution?
I have the SAME PROBLEM!
I was about to get radio to work 3 days ago, and now the radio says none.
it's like the radio removed itself.
ok this doesn't make sense, I used the hima rom to remove the radio.
and now the radio is back! wtf?
Hm I tried everything but I can't seem to reflash the radio. About every version I try hangs at 0%. Sometimes when I flash from SD card it hangs at arount 10%.
Tried different SPL versions as well
Damn you radio!!!
BTW, I have no idea what they did to my phone there, but after returning from the AT&T Repair center the Call timer was zeroed and Device ID is now different from what it was before in Skyscape software
Any solutions yet? Im having the same issues.
The reason why Active Sync restarts
For many people the Workaround "not a hack or registry at all" does not work is because of a event based notification that runs the program anytime the time changes. Since your phone updates from the cell tower, it updates the time alot even if by mere seconds well this update runs activesync. Get yourself MemMaid
run it in advanced mode then Jump to Databases then select Notification Queue you will see a list of 3 types of Queues; Time Based, Classic Time Based, and Event based. Go to the event based queue, you should see at the end of this list 3 listing for repllog.exe with the active sync icon. Click on them individualy and read what shows up in the window below put a check mark next to the listing that describes the event as "apprunaftertimechange" it is normaly the last one on list
Also make sure there is no repllog.exe listed in any other queue for a time based event. Leave the other instances of repllog.exe since you still want your device to sync when its connected to the computer. Once you select all events that desribe running repllog.exe after a time change or at a certian time and date press the delete button.
This worked for me on my 8125 and the tilt and if i would of figured this out before i had ATT replace my 8525 i probably would of not got the tilt but lol they gave me tilt free cause all the problems i had with 8525.
let me know if this works for you guys that still see activesync running after the fake server WORKAROUND.
This should work
memmaid is not free but i think its free to try and if all you do with it is fix this problem then great or find a way to register it cause it does help has cool tricks and tweaks
Wow, still no real fixes for this problem, bummer
running memmaid work
running memmaid works and fixes the random start of activesync and once the random start of activesync is fixed the device will not lock up because of activesync this not to say if some other program you may have installed locking you up as well
Hi
I replaced my P3300's screen a while ago because it was cracked. Everything seemed to go OK and the phone worked fine for a few days.
I don't know if this is related or not (maybe I messed the antenna up during the process, but since it worked for a while afterward I'd guess not...?)
Anyway, for the last couple of days I've had no network reception whatsoever.
The last time I remember it working was in the evening a few days ago. I fell asleep with the WIFI on and woke up with the phone dead. I turned it on and it didn't ask me for my PIN like it usually does, and it couldn't find my GSM network. It's been like that since.
When I press the green "dial" button nothing happens. When I go into settings > telephone, it asks me for my PIN and I can then access the options but it doesn't find any networks when I search.
Now every time I turn it off and back on, it never asks for my PIN.
I've tried removing the battery and the sim card but that hasn't helped.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance
Meh. On a possibly maybe related note, I've just realised my PocketCM Contacts hangs when I try to launch it. Could it be a loose sim card connection causing both these problems? Although I'm pretty sure all my contacts are on the phone and not the sim card, and the sim looks fine and is placed properly...
edit - just been into programmes > sim manager (not sure that's what it is in english, my phone is french) and I get a "sim busy" error message (again, not sure if that's exactly what it is in english...). Hmmmmm
Well it gets even weirder... It seems I can receive and send text messages!
I've been getting texts from my operator saying I have new voice messages (which I obviously can't listen to) and I've also had texts from a friend and been able to reply to them and they've been received. Even though the icon at the top still has an exclamation mark so supposedly no network.
My iGo GPS also doesn't seem to work anymore (it hangs during initialisation process) although Tomtom works fine.
Someone please tell me they have an idea what could be going on! This is doing my head in
Dam, you have all my solidarity man!
Are you using radio 3.39.90 by chance? Even if not I would still flash another radio.I also suggest to check that your device was correctly reassembled if you have any doubt about it.
Hi
Just got my new Samsung Galaxy Nexus today, but it cant find a network and have no signal.
I have tried to search for network in settings, but it comes up empty.
In the "about phone" page under signal it says -113db and 0 asu (varies a little bit, but not much)
I'm in Norway using OneCall, on the Telenor network, but the phone cant find any network.
The simcard works fine in other android devices.
The phone was sold as unlocked/simfree.
It says "onecall" on the bottom of the notification bar when I pull it down.
There are also apn settings for my simcard (looks like they are read from the simcard)
Wifi works great, and I can't see any other problems than that it cant find a network, but that is kind of a big problem since it is a phone!
I have rebooted multiple times, three factory resets, and tried with another simcard, but no luck.
Anyone have a idea what to try? should I try a custom rom? or do you think its a hardware problem?
I just saw "Telenor" when I searched for networks, but when I tried to connect it said it couldn't connect, and now I cant find it again.
Seems like I just have the worst possible antenna! (or radio?)
What type of phone did you have previously? Maybe you need an updated SIM card?
A new SIM card has solved this type of issue for quite a few people so give it a shot!

But it works in other phones like the HTC Desire and the old Hero.
I just drove into town, and I got a few bars, could make phone calls and so on.
But back home it still cant find a network.
Which leaves me to believe that the antenna (or the radio) is bad.
Do I have to root it and install a custom recovery to install the stock rom again?
Or is there a "rescue" solution? like on HTC devices.
Works fine here. Test a custom rom or another radio or something.. If it not works go back to stock and return it. I bought a HTC once with a bad antenna.
same problem
what did you end up doing kjetil84? I have the same problem. at home I have like no signal, but other places I have a litle. I use Talkmore witch also uses telenor.
an update would be great
That happened to me once before, try doing a factory reset.
still a problem
Just tried a factory reset, and it did not help
I love the phone, but at this time its not usable for me
