I'm a vogue user in china so i bought a re-manufactured vogue. Actually a UIM card reader is attached since you have to buy a UIM card before you use CDMA 2000. So here's the problem. The vendor told me that I'm free to upgrade to any ROM under the condition that the radio remain unchanged. According to my mobile phone, the version is 3.0 EVDO, which I believe is re-programmed for UIM card. Is there anyway I can upgrade to the WM6.5 without changing my radio? thanks a lot in advance.
ya flash nfsfan's rom, but you may have to configure your data connection

I have a second t-mobile dash, it used to be a brick. Someone messed it up.
Luckly found a way to manully put it in bootloader 3 color mode (holding the camera button for 3-4 seconds and hit the power button), then downloaded the latesest WM6 rom from T-Mobile 1.22.531.4. Flushed succefully, rebooted and the PC part of the phone now works perfectly.
Big problem is that it can not find the T-mobile phone network. That part just keep searching... No network. Testing by plugging in a cingular sim card. Prompt me for sim unlock code. So I guess the sim slot is at least working and it's reading the sim card. Used other perople's sim card, still not working(of course the sim card still work, plugging into my old samsung phone).
The radio version is now 4.1.13.34_02.79.90 . It's way different from my other dash...I am suspecting it to be the cause. WHAT RADIO VERSION HAVE YOU GUYS GOT?
Any idea how to fix it? try with changing the radio version may be?
Thanks
Can a few people just tell me what radio version are you on?
I was wondering, would a stolen phone be locked by the carrier so that the phone can't detect network?
This item is bought through ebay so i don't know what the previous guy was up to..
Thanks

Radio version change
Come on guys, anyone?
How about if anyone would like to point me to the right direction in how to change the radio version on the t mobile dash... is it a hardware thing or a software thing.
Thanks

there is a radio updtae in the ftp :
ftp://xda:[email protected]/smartphones/Excalibur
but i don't know if this upgrade is good or not
no, this radio upgrade is no good. do not even bother..
I suggest that you flash original T-Mobile firmware to this handset. Be that WM5 or WM6 and see how you go.
my Excalibur is HTC S620, radio version: 2.63
Firmware or ROM?
Thanks guys for your reply.
SecureGSM : Do you mean the ROM for the whole WM6 software (which I have already flushed.. twice). Or a firmware like a computer bios? If there is a firmware please point me to the right direction I'll definately want to put it in.
Thanks

Hi,
I was referring to the original WM5 T-Mobile ROM. You might have a better chance with it.
Radio version 4.1.13.34_02.79.90 is provided in the WM6 upgrade from T-mobile.
Hey, I've been ramming through the forums the last week with no idea whats up with my phone yet..
Here's my problem
- i got a sprint branded Vogue that was in perfect working condition. (but i soon fixed that).
- i wanted to upgrade to the latest sprint ROM so as to get GPS and then run a custom ROM to get manilla 2d.
- went ahead read instructions and installed coke 2.31, no problem.
- ran the latest sprint SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.4_2_Radio_3.42.30_AM_NV_2.04_Ship
- it booted and said no radio but finished customisation and when it rebooted Radio version was 3.42.30.
- run NFSFAN's Sprint 1.03 ROM.
- everything was ok except no service and no GPS lock..
- tried the method where you change the MSL to 000000.
(went well but no change)
- got rid of hard spl using spl 0.40 then flashed shipped sprint ROM twice
NO Service yet.
- loaded Tata's PRL, still no service..
any help to get my Vogue service back?????
More info.
I'm in Kenya and using Orange's CDMA offering, it uses RUIM cards and accepts any ESN, i dont have to register a new handset with them.
I'm not new to flashing, i've customised GSM HTC'S for a while but not expert level yet, but very NOOB to CDMA..
Willing to donate to whoever helps me fix it..
Simpler version
I think i can pinpoint my problem to one thing,
i need to enable the RUIM slot,
next to the mem card is another slot for a CDMA RUIM card(like sim card for GSM).
My carrier uses that and all settings are on it so just need to enable it if there is such a thing..
Hi,
Guys i really need your help.
I' am in India and i got a T mobile vario III from a local place. It was unlocked and was running on WM 6.0. I wanted to upgrade it to WM 6.1 and its similar to TyTynII in India so i googled for a serial number and hard flashed the rom with the TyTynII WM 6.1 Rom. I have a UK mobile and it every time i insert a sim card from Airtel, hutch or spice asks me to insert sim card. The serial number of this device is HT816GB03362 . This is the phone's official link: http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/sd_vario3.html.
I had problems with sound which was fixed by flashing a base Rom of kaiser and then flashing with tmobile WM 6.0 however the sim card doesnt get detected. I took it to HTC local service center and they were not able to figure it out.
I tried all the sim unlocks available in HTC but i dont know which radio is compatible with these providers.
I have a couple of websites which offer tmobile unlocking eg: http://www.gsmliberty.net/shop/tmobile-vario-iii-instant-remote-unlock-p-1520.html i dont know if it will work
Changes: Everything is default and sim card is not getting detected
The screen comes with "Smart mobility" whenever i turn on the device instead of "Tmobile"
Every other function works and it has hardspl 1.0 oilmod installed
I also tried to flash with the original tmobile 6.1 ROM on this device but the sound doesnt work
If anyone can point me to the right direction or let me know how to get this fixed i will be greatful
I was running WM6.5 and was getting no service on Vodafone UK at any time. It just failed to pick up the network. Then did Hard SPL and flashed with Deep Shining. Still getting the same. Anybody know how I can get a signal.
Thanks
Bad sim card maybe?
try the latest radio
SIM Card OK as it can be used in another handset. Latest radio? - any threads to show to do this.
Thanks
Hi, everyone
I have trouble witha my Desire, recently bought as second hand. It Soon developed problems with GSM signal reception. My Desire has radio version 32.49.00.32u_5.11.05.27, and kernel version 2.6.32.15-g2633d94. It uses to lost GSM signal, or become unavaible number, even don`t recognise aSIM card. I replaced my SIM card with new one at my provider, but the problems stay.
Looking forward for suggestions and advices. Thanks!
if you didnt rooted/ did any custom mods
i would send it to customer support, sounds like a hardware problem...
if you did modded you can try a other radio
if the problem still exist, i would flash the ruu and do what i said above
greetings
