How to get best signal - Networking

I have bought a Siemens SX56 refurbished unlocked XDA. I learned from this forum how to upgrade: (thanks for this wonderful forum)
T-Mobile USA
the ROM to 4.01.16 Eng kitchen
ROM date is 02/04/04
the Radio Stack to 6.25.02
the protocol version is 324e4
I need to find out what is the best T-Mobile ROM/Radio Stack combination to achieve the best phone signal strength or tips or tweaks or anything that will help.
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Radio Newbie Question

I have a Siemens SX56 using AT&T Wireless as a carrier.
The phone is running the following:
ROM Verison: 3.14.03 ENG
ROM Date: 09/27/02
Radio Version: 6.12
Protocol Version: 324e4
I was wondering if this is the newest radio version and software ROM version I can use. I went to O2's site and found other versions, but being new to the xda, I don't want to screw things up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :shock:
You sould not use an european rom en radio on an american device.
Because your radio is 900/1900 band and the european is 900/1800 band.
You may be able to use the rom update but I'm not sure, but you can not use the radio update.

Thanks....
Are you sure about the rom update?
I am using 3.14.03
Is there any list anywhere that describes the difference between the versions?
Thanks,
Bob

Help: Upgrade QTEK 900/1900

Hi all,
I have tried to read and understand how to upgrade my PocketPC phone, but unfortunately I am still confused:
I have non branded Microsoft "qtek" phone modelW10B1 (GSM 900/1900) with
ROM VERSION: 3.14.P6 ENG
ROM DATE: 09/26/02
Radio version: 6.18
Protocol version 324e4
Where to find the correct upgrade files?
or can someone kindly send them to me?
I would appreciate ANY help in this matter...
All the best,
Ampi
ROM is not the point. You can cook your ROM from the kitchen here. But the radio stack is so critical since you are using 900/1900. You better get the last update from your network provider or at least ask some one who's using the same network.

Cannot get Signal

G`day,
I am having trouble getting signal with my SX56 Siemens PPC.
I can`t figure out why I am not able to see any bar signal strengths and get the GSM part of the XDA is work. Also I tried changing the Frequency setting with bandswitch.exe to 900/1800 and still no difference.
Woud changing the frequency with the bootloader be a better method?
I have used three types of ROM versions and two RSU version to no avail.
1, Rom version A.20.17 - Radio A.20.10
2, Rom version 3.17.03 - Radio A.20.10
3, Rom version 3.20.6 Eng - Radio 4.21.00
4, Rom version 3.17.03 ENG - Radio 4.21.00 <<<<current settings which I might add are fantastic, great work xda-developers.
I have tried calling my service provider, but no help there.
Any help would be great.
I am located in Australia if that helps.
Thank you in advance.

Has anybody figured out how to unlock this?
Has anyone tried to downgrade the ROM and the Radio stack to see if this the XDAUnlock works.
I'm curious to see if I will run into Radio Stack problems if I attempt to do that.

Siemens SX-56 Upgrade

Hi all,
I'm a newbie as you will probably be able to tell shortly from my question below. I recently purchased and upgraded my Siemens SX-56 from the xdadevelopers special edition rom to a wm2003 I cooked at lumpistefan's rom kitchen. The upgrade was smooth as a baby's butt. Now, I have read about radio stack upgrades in this forum but I have no idea what RSU is. Do I need to do a RSU? If so, I would like to know how or be pointed in the right direction. I really read the forums and search for answers so please do not refer me to the search engine. The current device info is now:
Rom Version: 4.01.16 ENG
Rom Date: 2/4/04
Radio Version: A.20.10
Protocol Version: 324e4
Thanks in advance.
if your gsm works DONT mess with the rsu radiostack
it's the embedded software controlling the gsm part of the xda
and if it crash or make ones xda turn into the EU gsm system or US gsm depending on where one is located then one is in for a world of trouble
sx56
Thanks, my phone works fine so I will let sleeping dogs lie. One question...if the phone works, does that mean my gsm is working?
