I bought siemens sx56 from AT&T & try to work in GSM 900/1800 but it is works only on 900/1900, The 900 cell phone works great but i want to work with my 1800 GSM phone.....I change it in the bootloader & "No signal" on the 1800 GSM phone!!!!
How can i change it to reallt works 900/1800?????
Maybe update the radio ver?
My 1800 service provider use the QTEK1010 (PW10A1) with
Rom ver: 3.16.52
Radio ver: 3.23.01
Siemens SX56 (PW10A1)
Rom ver: 3.17.03 ENG
Radio ver: A.20.10
Protocol ver: 324e4
With Special edition ROM 1.2
Yeap sounds like its time for a radio stack upgrade!
HTH
Did you get the device type from the rear sticker or the device info ??
The rear sticker is the main reference ... if it's still the same mother board of course! :lol:
If it's PW10A then RSU upgrade might help to get the 1800 MHz signal.
How to upgrade the radio stack & from where to get it?
Many many thanks
www.yorch.net the upgrades section
Little mistake - My model # on the rear sticker is PW10B1
Little mistake - My model # on the rear sticker is PW10B1, not PW10A1...

Thanks

I think you might have used T-mobile (USA) GSM 900/1900 phone (PW10B1) radio stack (radio version 6.25.02 ) to upgrade your GSM 900/1800 version phone (PW10A1). If so, you won't get signal! you have a dead phone, only PocketPC!
Phone is not dead! try this..
I got same problem here, the solution is simple
try to get into bootloader of your XDA , (search on xda-developers how to do it) and change band to your using bootloader
after this DONT touch the band selection tool in phone settings
More help on priv if u need.
If your device is PW10A type (rear sticker), carefully try the RSU 3.25.01 from Carrier Devices then select the right band from the GSM menu in the boot loader.
hi, amazing website i must say, but since im new to this site and lagging too in the info i would hence ask the question here to get the answer to my problems:
1) i have qtek 1010
ROM version 3.18.04 ENG
ROM date 05/22/03
Radio version: 3.25.01
protocol version 32S54
at the back: PW10A1
i have a middle east gsm roaming chip, which worked all over europe, but in canada it doesnt pick the local fido network. i believe my qtek is dual band not supporting the 1900mhz, how can i make it work for me ? could you please advise the steps ?
2nd question is:
my qtek is microsoft version 3.0.12039 (build 1178) does it need to be upgraded ? if yes with what software pls.
thank you in advance.
Guy
there is no way to make PW10A device to use 1900 ... but it should work for 900 if your network supports 900/1900
im trying to roam on fido , does fido use 900 ?
thanks

Not sure if i really could help you. But your model is PW10B1 so you can only use 900/1900 GSM networks. There is no possibility to get it working on 1800.
Maybe this causes your problems...

just flash to RSU Version 4.21-900-1800 and in GSM boot menu select 900-1800

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That would be a bad idea.
The Radio Stack depends on the hardware version. Since he has a PW10B modell, the device is just designed for 900/1900 Networks....
Flashing the 4.21could set the device as a paperweight...

Not dificult to find?? where do i find it??? i have been checking around and can't find anything.. maybe it because my english is not that good.. !!
The sx56 cannot operate on the 850 band as far as I know, the only version I have seen are version A or B, A works on 900/1800 and B works on 900/1900.

6.x Radio Versions are for PW10B devices....
