Difficulties with phone after upgrading to the new ROM

Hi folks ...
I face this problem with the phone many times a day. I can confirm it happens each time there is a failed call attempt (you couldn't make the call) ... the only way is to switch off the phone and turn it on again.
I thought it's something with RSU 1.09.00 but it happens also after downgrading to 1.08.00 ... so I think it has to do with the new ROM. It tells the signal maybe unavailable while you can see it is on the max level.
Edit: last observation ... it can receive SMS :?:
Any one faced this experience ??

Me Too
I Have the same problem :-(

Ive noticed in your screen shot the active sync is trying to connect with the internet which will prevent you phone from making the call. To give a example .... if I was downloading a file using my universal and someone tried to call me they would get my mail instead of ringing as the phone is using the internet connection however as soon as the file downloaded the phone would break the internet connection and allow the call. Hope that made sense!

I thought the service is supposed to interrupt the download if the phone rings as the primary function of the device is a telephone and secondary as a mobile computing platform.

That's what I always thought but even with my trusty old imate jam I found if I got a call as I was downloading say mail the call would not make it though, try downloading a biggish file then ring your phone number at the same time I bet it will not make it This as ALWAYS been the case btw - don't matter which rom you have. oh and this applies to gsm (2.5 gprs) only as 3G is a totally different ball game!

thx for all inputs but it happens even without activesync running ... it doesn't work again except by switching the phone off then on ... the most exciting part: u will never notice that your phone is frozen till you try to make a call :evil: ... this will make me to go back to the old rom

More observation on this issue ... I made a hard reset and started without any problems with the phone part ... I restored a system backup and all went well ... the phone issue appeared again when I paired my BT headset with the device ... this might mean something to do with the BT stack ... I believe it happens mostly during or after using the headset :?:
Any similar experiences ?

Same Problem Here... I was going to downgrade to 1.08.00, but now I may not... Don't want to lose the speed increase, so don't want to downgrade ROM...

back again ...
I made another hard reset and staretd without any s/w installed for a week .. the phone seemed to be stable but with the same annoying BT disconnect issue ... the above issue started to appear again after installing some phone related s/w like Smart Filter and PZP ... I think the new Radio ROMs starting with 1.08 have an issue with such applications that would continously check on phone traffic or have OS hooks to catch some events ... this wasn't the case with Radio 1.02 or 1.03 ... I 'm thinking to get back to 1.03 since I got nothing from 1.08 or 1.09 except quick battery draining!!

Sim card weirdness after upgrade to 2.01.08

Hi all, I'm having a strange problem, and wondered if anyone here might know the solution.
I've upgraded my exec to jwrightmcps' latest rom, all went smoothly and I like what I see. Using my 02 payg sim, everything works like a dream. But when I put my T-Mobile sim in, I get a full signal and the 3g indicator, but I am unable to make or receive any calls. I was able to send one text, and make one call, both done immediately after a soft reset, but within 30 secs or so, the same problem returns.
I have also noticed, that when the T-Mobile sim is installed the phone dialling screen shows an icon of a handset next to an arrow pointing right. This is not shown when using my 02 sim. Is this the 'roaming' symbol? Not sure....
The T-Mobile sim works fine in all my other phones.
I have flashed the phone with 3 different 2.01.08 roms so far, the 02 exec version, the MDA Pro version, and the HTC Universal version, and the same problem happens with each ROM. It looks as though I'll have to go back to my previous ROM, unless anyone here has any ideas...?

thanks for your help about batteries guys, I am gonna try that tonight...
Concerning my GPRS issues, I just had to flash radio rom 1.14 and everything is just working fine now...

Instread of a full reflash I suggest you flash only the Radio ROM only.

Worth a try, I guess...
Any suggestions on which radio Rom i should use?

Well, I had a lot of Problems with 1.13 and 1.10 and below. The one which works REALLY good for me is the newest one 1.14.10 which you can find on the FTP.

I also have had this and more crazy sim's bahaviour, I asked Jwright, he advised me to install the .13 again only.
After a long suffer, I just did it now. It feels like everything is corrected. The sound of start is back, no freezes after soft reset so far, before I had to do 5 -8 resets to let it work. now I am trying to make it freeze but it doesn't. Seems like the end of suffer.
About the issue, .13 or .14, I think it is related to the ISP you are connected to because it is almost 50% vote for the .13 and the other 50% vote for the .14, myself I tried both but .13 was far better.
Thanks Jwrightmcps very usefull man.

That little icon means that your sim has calls being diverted to another number... trust me, I had the same thing. I recommend checking your settings for call divert on the sim. Good luck.

Flashing with the 1.14 radio rom has solved the problem

My last short experience use exec, the 1.14 radio is the best

This has nothing to do with the Radio!
Your T-Mobile SIM card has "Call Forwarding" enabled. Please disable it by going to "Settings/Personal/Phone/Services" select "Call Forwarding" then click the "Get Settings" button, then un-check the "Forward all incomming phone calls" and hit "OK".
Take care,

sunnysoft calling card issue with wm6 rom

hi ,
i am using an application called sunnysoft to dial my calling card no. s . but when ever i use this application to dial a number , its not registering in the call history. Has any one faced this issue.
i have tried this with almost all rom s in this forum ( tnt, pandora kitchen, scaps, cyphol and v3pg)
Is there a solution for this or is there an alternative application to dial calling card...
thanks in advance

Hi,
We are having the same issues with Treo 750s and we've tried to get a hold of the Sunnysoft's support without any luck (ie calls hung up, emails unanswered).
There's another issue with WM6 phone gives you a 'Call Ended' popup which seems to slow down the speed at which this app works (as it seems to hang up in teh background on your call and redial using calling card, very slow).
Anyway just noticed that v1.1 just been posted on 1st of October, going to try that, no idea on whats new in it as product page is still listing v1.0 as latest.
Would be keen to find out of any other apps out there, surely its not that hard to make something like this that would work well.
*** Correction *** Seems like the so called v1.1 is actually v1.0, false alarm :-(

Typera, i have the same experience with this application. The version 1.1 that is out is the not the calling card but sunnysoft contact manager.
The other application that i use at times is called callingcard. THis one works fine but the limitation is that when you have to call a no. , you have to click on the contact and then select the option of " call using calling card" . so its so cumbersome.....
another one that i found is a inbulit calling card application in the inesoft contact manager but could not find a way to configure it.
i was looking out for some other better program that integrates both these but none seems to be available.....

hi drgopoos,
just tried the callingcard and its quiet a pain in the bum to use, not as easy given treo's quick finder thing from todays screen.
I did notice one change in the calling card app from sunnysoft download from today is ability to wait for dialtone, which if I recall correctly was not there 2-3 months ago. Maybe there's hope after all...slim as it may be.

I too started using it for a few months now , but i think that this feature ( dial tone) was present there even before..

need help with my htc s621

hi;
need help with my htc s621, was using it in Vancouver/ Canada;
couple of mounts ago used a service here to unlock it and was able to use it in Iran while I am staying;but with some problem;
on regional/Locale there is no Iran in the country list, there is problem that I think it is related to it;
when I make a call using the keypad, the call will be ended so it won't make a call, but if i save the number into the phone book and call the number from there; then it works, to mention that I changed the locale to Sweden, because this way at least i can make a call from phone book, and when I get a call can not return the all using the number, because it will add the country code to the number, so I have to enter into phone book and remove the country code then be able to use it.
anyway I can make this work?
some kind of ROM update ?
I have searched many local shops here, but there are other models of htc around but not excalibur to get some help;
appreciate any help;

Welcome to forums
have a deep read here:

Reflashing to a newer ROM could help your problem (which I don´t understand quite well)
Good luck,

Hi,
I am also in Vancouver although my phone is a T-Mobile Dash that I got on eBay. You really have a different problem here. I assume that you are using an Iranian SIM card when in Iran and not your Rogers/Fido SIM.
Another guy I work with has a Rogers s621 and even though I unlocked and flashed his ROM for him (originally to the Kavanna 6.1 and now to the EVO 6.5 ROM) he had trouble on trips to China with his China Mobile SIM which itself needed to be unlocked to use it. He ended up buying a phone over there instead.
I assume you are still using the Rogers 6.0 ROM, which is better than the T-Mobile but far behind either of the two I listed above. I would flash to Ookba's 3VO ROM, it is really great and runs beautifully. But follow the direction to the letter, don't skip any steps. I have no idea if it will solve your particular problem, but even if it won't you'll be a lot happier with the phone using it here in BC.
Here is the link to the ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718

Thanks for the replies guys;
I will do some reading and will upgrade to see if it will become better or not;
yes I still have the Rogers 6.0 ROM; and use an Iranian SIM card;
I wonder if I upgrade and then some problem occurs is it possible to downgrade to what I have, perhaps a way to backup the ROM I have.
Thanks

As long as you follow the instructions on my previous post al should be ok, but in case it fails you can always go back and install another ROM, but believe me if you install any new ROM (6.1 or 6.5) you´ll be so happy that you won´t want to go back

OK;
I did install the new ROM (EVO 6.5 ROM);
it is very nice, I like it but the name of my country Iran is missing in this version also,
by the way I believe this ROM is application unlocked, I wonder why I can not install any application on it;
I searched online and found couple of free apps fo wm 6.5 but it won't be installed. I have not got any error or something.
some of the apps will go half and some up to the end but I don't find it anywhere.
any idea why?
if anyone has installed an application on htc s621 using same ROM please provide a name and a link to download if possible.
appreciate your help.

I don't know if this will help, or whether you have already tried it. You would probably have to do this while in Iran with the Iranian SIM card in the phone. Try entering your settings menu, All Settings > Phone > More > Networks > Menu > Preferred Networks. Scroll down to see if your Iranian network is shown with all the other international choices.
I have no idea how this list is generated, I assume it is by Rogers/Fido here in Vancouver. But you may have a political problem on your hands rather than technical. Are the sanctions against Iran reaching to some organization of cellular providers and the Iranian carriers are being blocked by them from being on the list? I don't know the answer, you would know a lot more about what is restricted in Iran (from within or without) than I would.
In any case, good luck.

OK; Here is what append with my phone;
I upgraded to 3VOLUTION series to see if the dialing problem will be solved or not, everything was OK after installation no errors or something, but as for the calling, as my phone had problem calling out using keypad, now this time after upgrading to wm6.5 my phone could not dial from phone book either,
so practically useless phone, it could only receive calls.
I searched for a solution online , did not find any answer, looked around phone shops here in my city, until I found a guy that said he can make it work, he had a box so in less than 20 minutes did something and phone start working properly, I can make a call from keypad and phone book no problem,
and in the location status the country of Iran is not listed either I am not sure what he did using the box.
I did asked the guy if I upgrade or downgrade WM can the same thing happen again, he was not sure.
I am thinking of downgrading to 6.1 since there are not much application found for 6.5.
but I don't want to pay the guy again for the same thing.
does anyone know of this things?
what he actually did with the box that can not be done without it?
appreciate any help

Tilt2 Conference

Hi Experts,
I have flashed the nrg rom and couple of official roms on my Tilt2 but i noticed that on my Tilt 2, Conference facilty is not supporting by some of the other reason, when i do Add call and then hit the conference button i can see people are in conference but only 1 person cannot hear me and even i cannot hear. is there a problem in the rom's or on my Phone, I also tried from another Tilt2 with flashed rom and found same problem. any suggestions from tilt2 users.
Regds,
Rankit

Mine does it also. I think we may not be doing it correctly.

well i removed the Tilt2 AT&T rom and loaded the official Singapore and UK Rom, then i tried NRG's and coupe other Roms but no sucess with Conf. call. I am planning to AT&T today and see whether they gotta do anything with it. Lets see. Appreciate if someone can help us .
Regds,
Rankit

What always works for me is if you encounter this problem, make one of the calls private.... wait for a couple of seconds and then reconference the calls.
This has worked for me 100% of the time....
Hope this helps.
FYI... this is for a Tilt 2 with stock ROM

Hi IBOJO
