TMobile WM2003 Upgrade Issues

I was wondering if anyone else was having the following issues with the new T-Mobile upgrade, and if anyone had any ideas on how to resolve them:
* The phone turns on sporadically when it is in my pocket. I think this normally happens when it tries to connect to GPRS
* The phone doesn't give me notification of my voice mail all the time
Thanks,
Dan

I'm seeing #1. In my case it looks like it's every time that the Inbox checks the email. Beta Version 4.00.16 didn't do this (so I might go back).
I had #2 occasionally even with PPC2002. Do you go in and out of coverage areas? This can cause problems, I think.

tmo never fails....
the ghost affect was an issue with the previous tmo betas...but it was not a prblm with att's latest rom
I have a different issue with my newly upgraded rom from tmo:
everything works fine
...except :shock:
wen i press the power button to turn the xda back on, it wont do anything at all
the button works to turn back light off, and to turn the unit off, but not back on
Im about to try with sum other Roms, but has any one eperienced this issue, or might know what might be causing it? (additional soft)?

I had to restart my computer to solve this... Sometimes, you need to restart the XDA also.

Upgraded Driver
If you allow the TMOBILE upgrade to install the new updates for you, it also installs a new driver in to your XDA that illiminates ALL upgrade problems from what I have seen.

Upgrade
I have done a hard reset on the phone and I run into the problem when I first start the upgrade. It goes through an initial setup of "unpacking" and after that is when I get the error on the pc. The device connects fine with ActiveSync.

I'm having the turn back on issue, and also some times my text messages don't seem to come through.
I was thinking that maybe when it turns itself on, it's a text message trying to come through or something.
My texts end up coming through in a group!

yep, same here on the sms and missed calls...
i got voice mail, from 3 days ago, show up today!
and.. sms from midnight lastnight, came today at 5pm
although, i DID make fone calls this morning, so... the out of range thingie dont apply here..
also... i cant print to IR anymore!

I just upgraded with T-Mobile.16 ROM and Radio. The only bug im experiencing is when I receive a new sms, and I read it already, the notification of "1 unread SMS" on the Today panel won't go away.
I'm also having a hard time setting up my connection settings (MMS and GRPS) for the advanced section of the connection won;t show the proxy settings. Any1 who has a solution for this? I'm usign the mobile in the Philippines that's why I need to setup the proxy per connection and not per connection group.

Upgrade
Nevermind! I hate when it's something simple like disabling the antivirus on the pc. DUH!! :roll: I have yet to get any sms. Will keep watching :shock:

I am yet to received any errors like this. The only time I seem to have the XDA turn on is when the reception fringes and it hunts down better reception. It only takes a moment of poor reception to interfear with how it receives a message and than the system waits several hours sometimes to send it.
T-Mobile as with many other carriers like Verison and AT&T state to excpet up to 24 hours for SMS messages to get through to your phone.

Yes, I had this issue today and I then unistalled the KSE TrueFax Trial (which I installed yesterday) and now the power button is working correctly again. The only way to power up the XDA was to do a soft-reset.
HTH...

i didnt think xda 1 had fax capabilities! atleast I couldnt get them to work, could u?

FYI, I had the same problems with the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM. I go into many building where I get no signal at all. My guess is that, if the SMS message fails, the T-Mobile network will retry it, but sometimes not for quite a long time.

I have a similar problem. When the device powers off automatically (after about 3min) I can't get it to come back on. Doing a soft reset actually makes it do a hard reset. Also, while it's in this "coma" state, I can receive a call and hear the person on the other end, but they only hear a ring and can't hear me.
T-mobile had no clue what to do... as usual.

Desire keeps asking for PIN

Hi all,
have had my Desire for a couple of months now, well pleased with it. I have not in any way modified it other than installed some apps from market. This afternoon after lunch while it was in my Brodit car holder I suddenly noticed it was asking for PIN code. Entered it, fine. But then a couple of minutes later, same thing again. And again.
Just now I was typing an SMS to somebody and just before finishing screen blanks out, then the screen asking for PIN comes up.
What the heck?
Anybody who has had similar problems and knows what causes/caused them?
I haven't had the battery or sim card out or anything, it just suddenly started doing this.
Cheers
//Joris
*edit*
I have tested switching off the phone, removing battery for a couple of mins then reinserting and rebooting, but same problem persists.
Wonderful, we're going on holidays in 2 days.... :'(

Well I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the problem was, tested with another SIM but same. Completely random, sometimes it would last half an hour sometimes not even a minute.
Did a clear storage/hard reset and after that all seems fine. Except for that my conversations were still there, but somehow if I get an sms from somebody now it's added to the wrong conversation. Then if I reply to it, it goes to the person in the conversation, not the person who sent the msg
Deleted all msgs now so should be sorted. Think a problem with all contacts syncing to and from Microsoft Outlook, it messed up all phone numbers like this:
46 2342423423
so no + and a space between country code and phone number. ANnoying as heck but haven't figured out if there's a setting in outlook or htc sync to solve this.

What ROM/Radio is it running?? is it unbranded??

I have no idea. Bought from Komplett here in Sweden, i.e. unbranded and unlocked. It's running what it came with since there haven't been any updates and I haven't the balls to start experimenting about with it

Strange, I just picked up my Desire today. I rooted it this evening and only noticed it happening after rooting it. I didn't run it for very long unrooted though, so I don't know if it's related. I wonder what's causing it.

maybe this helps:

Thanks but it goes to SIM lock rather than phone lock... like when you first switch on your phone. The phone doesn't reboot though, it just asks for the SIM pin all of a sudden, even when you're doing something on it.

i also had this problem (well more or less) for me it happened when my cellphone signal dropped to limited service (or no services at all) after the phone picks up a signal again its asks for a pin. you mind want to check this out aswell. i fixed this by going into the settings and fiddling around with network/mobile operator settings and such, soz i cant remember exactly, but this did the trick for me.
hope it helps.

I was going to take it back to the shop when I thought I'd try a different ROM first. I installed the OpenDesire 3.0.1 Froyo ROM last night and so far it hasn't done it yet. Maybe the official Froyo ROM won't have that problem either.

Hi
I've been having the same problem on my X10 Mini Pro for the last couple of days. To try and figure out what's causing this I've made a small app that checks the sim-status periodically. If it's not available or a pin-code is required for unlocking it the phone starts vibrating plus default notification-sound.
If you're fast you can check your device's LogCat with aLogCat (available from market). At least you'll get notified that you're unreachable
Since I have no Market-account yet you have to upload it to your phone manually with adb. Search google for a howto.

Hi!
Do you have Exchange 2010 sync?
Hi have the same porblem with LG Optimus 2x.

Data Problem since Mango

Hi Guys,
My phone has developed a pretty cripling problem since updating to Mango. I waited for the official update from my carrier without any forced tricks.
Basically my data connection is randomly dropping out. My phone will still display G/E/3G/H or whatever but there is no network connectivity. Nothing works and if i try a web page i just get connection/dns errors.
The only way to solve this is a soft-reset. Even flight mode on-off doesn't always seem to work.
I thought it was a bug on my network since Orange and T-Mobile share and that it may have had a problem switching between but i've manually selected my home network (Orange) and it's still happening.
So basically i'm now in a position where i have to manually check my data connection is actually working and if not, soft reset my phone. I can't be doing this, it's ridiculous having to re-set my phone numerous times a day!
Like i say this problem has only arrisen since Mango. I've read on the net a few others with this issue but no fix.
Are any of you guys experiencing something similar? Or know what I could try?
Thanks :/

I had that issue with WiFi for a couple of days after updating but it fixed itself. You might want to ask Orange for a replacement device if it stays like that.

I'm experiencing the exact same issue with my HD7 since a couple of days now. But I assume it's a hardware failure. My device is causing all different kinds of trouble like rebooting randomly several times a day, refusing to launch apps and so on. I'm going to send it in for repair.

It's odd i didn't notice it for a week after updating but then when i was out and about it dropped. Then every day since it's done the same thing.
So frustrating, it doesn't appear to be a localised network issue as it happened when i travelled around 100 miles away too!
Might give orange a call then and see what they say. Just seems a bit of a co0incidence that it's only happened after the Mango update.

Been on the phone to orange - They've sent me some network settings message, tbh i can't see it doing anything but they said if it carries on they'll just replace the handset.
Bit annoying really since other than this it's flawless.

I have the same problem, just restored back to pre-mango. no point being on Mango if i can't consume any data.
Spoke to Orange couple of days ago and "they said not our problem, call Samsung".
a joke.

Has restoring back fixed the data problem?
My sister also has an Omnia 7 on Orange and she has the same problem. So that's at least 3 cases Orange have been made aware of, I can only assume there are more.
I don't see any point retunring my phone as i assume when i update the replacement to Mango the same problem will arise.
Also do you have insurance with Orange? I was offered a replacement as i have the Orange care thing.

For reference,
I started a thread on the MS Answers site and a few others on Orange UK are
having the same problem.

If anyone here is suffering could they add their details to the list and mark it as "im having this problem too" to bring it to the attention of MS please?
Thanks!

I have a simfree omnia7 with an o2 UK SIM in it and I also have data connection problems since the mango update. It must be the phone coz it works fine on my desire HD with the same sim in it. Mite be time to get myself a titan instead me thinks.

I just resolved this problem for my HTC Trophy!!!!
The cause seems to be that the APN settings where erased/blanked after the update to Mango.
I have a Vodafone branded HTC Trophy and my provider is T-mobile. After I supplied the APN settings from T-mobile, my data connection keeps on working!
Try it, maybe this helps!
APN settings can be edited through "Settings" - "Mobile Network (or Cellular)" - "edit apn" (scroll down!)

I have a similar problem on the Omnia7 with T-Mobile.
Sometimes my connection just drops, completely, no bars, no internet nothing. It'll come back after a few minutes though. I also have seen some similar problems to you with internet, displaying 3G+ but not actually loading anything.
I also seem to roam a lot now on T-Mobile Orange, even at home and when roaming I can't use the net at all.
Having said all this, I didn't force Mango but I was on the Developer Beta which (I think) means it just automatically upgraded to a generic Mango rom? I'm pretty sure T-Mobile have been slow with their updates, I've had mango since the first week release.

[Q] HTC 7 Mozart cannot make/receive calls/sms messages

Hello! I don't know why but my phone started having this problem. It was out of nowhere. Well, maybe not, I've flashed my phone with the official mango update like two weeks ago, and it was working fine.
And today I saw that that I messages doesn't send out. I tried to call/text myself from other phone, and I couldn't. Phone displays gsm network name in phone hub, and also it shows full gsm connection bars(five of them), so you couldn't tell that something is wrong until you try to text or call. When you call the phone says "dialing..." but this shows forever and there's no sound from the speaker. It's worth mentioning that I've received few messages I've send to myself, but just about 2hours from sending, and then I tried to send a few more and haven't received those. Also, I've suceeded to call for a few times but after a long long wait(like at least 30sec) with the "dialing..." message shown. However, I cannot reach the phone when calling from my other phone.
I've tried to turn my phone on/off, to take the battery/sim card off, reseting the device, but none of these things helped. Then I've decided to flash my device. I've flashed my phone with DeepShining Mango custom ROM, and it seems to be working fine, but the problem still exists.
I don't know what else to do. And that's a major problem, because noone can call or text me. As I've said in the beginning, it was out of the sudden, I haven't done anything to my phone. Just yesterday I was using my phone normally, texted and called with no problem.
So I'm asking yours, guys, help. Could you please suggest what I could do? Thank you very much!
P.S. I've bought this phone from second hand and it was unlocked, but it has an orange logo on the battery cover, so I suppose it was locked to orange.

Did you pay your bill?

I have a prepaid card.

Ok, do you have a another SIM to test

[Q] "Get media content now"

I saw the old thread but it had no solution and was a year old wasn't sure if I shoulda bumped it. Anyway
I keep getting this error when receiving media messages. I got a lumia 900 last week, and it worked fine, swapped it out because it had a screen issue. Now this one gets that error every once in awhile. I just get a text telling me about it and I click it and nothing happens. I already went into AT&T and they checked my account, so it should be working. It took me about 15 retries to send one earlier too. ;(.
Anyone know the problem or solution?

I had this happen earlier this week and last week. I don't know why. I restarted my phone and still had the issue. I tried multiple times and finally got it to work.
