Help! Only finds networks when plugged into charger!

Has anybody came across this problem, I recently flashed to Duttys 3.1 Final and Radio BS14 and now my phone loses its signal to my Tmobile network when I unplug it from my charger. But when I plug it back in, it locates the network in a few seconds. But I am getting a lot of dropped calls when it shows I have full bars. Any ideas on why it might be doing this? I dont want to have to make calls and text only when its plugged in. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated guys.

ya i tried almost 5 different radios and ROMs and no luck.
The guy in this thread reported the same problem I am having but it does not look like there was any solution to this problem. Do you think I may have flashed to 1.93 in a way that could have screwed up the radio or internal antenna?

Go find a original rom from HTC or your provider. - FLash it and tell us if it solves the problem.

does HTC have download links to those original ROMs, because I got my diamond when it first came out, I think it was 1.34 if I remember right so ill try flashing back to that ROM if I can find it. Im not sure what version the radio was though.

Please, HELP cant receive calls

Hi guys, Im so desperated my phone keeps sending the incoming calls straight to the voicemail. Im aware of the 2G non being able to cope with data and voice at the same time, but i was also experiencing this in 3G. So I installed APNdroid so no data can be update automatically.
This worked for a few days but now I have 2 or 3 signal bars (2G) and the flipping phone keeps sending the incoming calls to the voicemail!!!!!!!!!!! Im about to throw it against the wall mate, Im so frustrated
Any help please????
btw, I have an unrooted HTC desire (Orange Uk) with official ROM 1.21.405.2
radio 32.36.00.28U 4.06.00.02_2
is anyone having the same problem? I dont know if my phone is faulty or its Orange Uk....
67 VIEWS!! and no one could help me???????

I guess not! Chances are there's a physical problem with your phone, so I'd send it back if I were you.
Of course, this also assumes you haven't done something silly like set the phone to divert all calls to voicemail, or installed an app that does something similar.
Regards,
Dave
thanks Dave!
I havent done anything you mentioned above, and believe it or not this is the second replacement, thats why i though it was an Orange problem. i think im gonna give up on the desire if i cant find a solution soon. cant keep missing calls.
thanks for your help dude, nice to know i wasnt benig ignored

Youtube upload via 4g.

First, I tried searching and couldn't find anything or just missed it.
When I upload videos to YouTube it will keep timing out and saying that it will retry in one minute. I also found that if my screen turns off while it's doing that, it sometimes won't continue. Anyone else have this issue or have a way to fix it? I have to keep the screen on by sliding my finger down the screen and having to click the uploading video to get it to retry.
No one?
gd,mgfn,gms
Is this the Q&A forum or just the Q forum? Maybe someone will answer that.
I just want to know if anyone else has that issue and if anyone has an idea to alleviate it.
I don't have 4g but I think it may have happened a few times to me on 3g. I usually prefer to stay on wifi, especially if you are uploading something and the 4g signal goes out for a split second, it could end the data transfer.
Sorry I cant help!

Hi, thanks for answering. I have great 4g service where I live and usually have 2 to 3 bars all of the time. I was thinking maybe it would time-out a lot for some reason. But, thanks again.
Never
I still have never been able to upload a video on any network 3/4g or wifi. It always times out. Maybe it's an unpublished bug(won't be the first)

Hm. I wish someone would chime in that has done the 4g time-out hack to see if they have the same issue.

[Q] 3G and Bluetooth issues....

Hi all!
Not sure as to why but I am having problems connecting to 3G and also having bluetooth signal issues.
Regarding the 3g, it is showing up in the menu bar but when I try to go into the Market, it gives me a connection problem and wants me to keep retrying. Even if it does connect, it disconnects fairly quickly and gives me the same retry popup.
Regarding bluetooth, I was having no issues until recently. it is really choppy ever since I updated to Fresh's rom 3.2 and also went to a new HBOOT in order to flash my splash screen. People on the other side are having a fair amount of problems understanding me.
Is it possible that these 2 issues are related somehow and if so, how? Is there a way to fix as may something have happened when I changed the rom or HBOOT?
Thanks in advance for any help!
So, I have posted 3 threads in the last 5 days and got only 2 replies to them. Are people just unwilling to help nowadays or am I doing something wrong or is it because I don't post a lot that this is happening? I think I have been descriptive and courteous in my posts and would appreciate some help.
I see posts both right before mine and right after getting help and yet no one helps me. How about sharing the knowledge and suggestions PLEASE???
This may help any interested...my Mobile Network setting is constantly showing as "Turning On" but never completely turns on. Why is that and how do I fix it?
My 4g does completely turn on but do not know if it works as do not get in my local area.
Thanks for the help.

[Q] No 3G Evo.. please help

hello forum..i been having a problem getting 3G on my evo i dont know what else to do i been looking online for fixes and no success so far (obviously) sometimes i get 3G for a few minutes other times it shows 3G but its greyed out but most of the time theres just no service at all...i am in a 3G area i can connect to 4G but very little (not really in my area) and i connect to wifi...im rooted but im on the stock sense rom till i figure this out..i called sprint and did a few resets but it didnt last after i hung up (of course) ...please help..any information would be appreciated
p.s. let me know if you need anymore info
Well, are you in an area where Sprint's 3g network is overloaded [therefore slow]?
The switches at the towers are set to send phones to 1x [to reduce the load] in times where it's necessary.
That sounds like it's what's happening to you.
Especially since you sometimes get 3g.
i wish it was but the other evos in this house have full 3g -__- im hoping perhaps theres a way to refresh or restart my 3g if thats even possible?
I don't how much help this would be but if you call Sprint they can send refresh signals to your phone. Maybe try that? Edit: Not sure if these are the resets your talking about.

You can turn the radio off and on via settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > data enabled
It's important to note that, just because other phones are getting 3g and you're only sometimes getting it, it could still be the switches at the tower.
You can try updating your radio to the newest version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
Or wiping and reflashing/ruu your rom/kernel.
Sprint could also completely reset your line [on their end] and cause the phone to re-provision.
thank you i will definitely try this ...but how do i flash the radio? in recovery?

That is correct.
does it mean anything if i flashed the radio and it started loading and went to the main recovery part like like where it says reboot, install from sd, ect?

It just prepared it.
Now you have to restart the phone and it will go to a screen and you have to sit and wait for it to finish.
DO NOT TAKE THE BATTERY OUT.
It can take a few.
''/ still no luck...but thank you
Still need help...btw my battery is shot could this possibly be a culprit? my battery does last more then 3-4 hours
