But now I am back on the XDA Rom 1.2 and my GPRS is all messed up.
Says no answher...
No could this be because I am using a New Cingular 64k SIM card?????
Let me find out so I can stop beating my self up about it.

I have a Qtek 9100 running the latest ROM and radio, etc on the Cingular network. The other day I get no signal, and reboot do not fix the problem. I take the sim card, and put it in a different phone. The other phone gets a signal, but says I can make emergency calls only. After about an hour on the phone with a Cingular rep I agree to drive to the store and get a replacement card. The replacement card fixed the problem. 4 days later, I am back to the same problem. The cingular rep is now blaming the phone after they can't figure out whats wrong. He is telling me the phone is "Zapping" the sim card. I find this hard to believe, but has anyone had this problem before? Has anyone ever tried to do an RMA with Qtek? Any help would be great, as i'm ready to put this 9100 on ebay and be done with it, unless an RMA with Qtek is worth it.
Happened to me last week with my 9100 (still running the original ROM). Got a new SIM and it's been running fine since.
i've had my 9100 rom on my 8125 for acout 2 weeks now without any major problems. the only problem I have is that it switches back and forth from gprs to edge a lot, but it doesn't bother me.
have you tried to reflash back to the cingular rom? it couldn't hurt.
I actually am running the Cingular ROM. I already replaced the SIM card 4 days ago, and it worked for about 4 days until it broke again. It doesnt make much sense, because something has to be corrupting the SIM card. When I ran *#*#364#*#* GSM utility, it would give me no data at all. Obviously the SIM card is dead (But still reads contacts on the SIM), and reauthorizing it does nothing to restore it. I will get a replacement today and verify the SIM continues to work in a different handset before I put it back in the 9100. Also I plan to factory default, and upgrade to latest ROMS etc before I try it again just in case. If anyone has any other ideas, let me know. Thanks.

Aqueous, very much the same problem here. I got my Qtek9100 yesterday and I am connecting to Cingular. When I switch on the phone it takes forever to latch to network. The
Y.
Y..
Y... keeps happening for ever and ever. But once, it latches it stays on to it firmly. If I put the sim in my old phone Nokia3230, it just connects to cingular with a snap as soon as the phone is switched on. When I tap on the " Y " region it shows "searching...". I also tried doing a manual/automatic network detection in settings. During the time the "Y. Y.. Y..." keeps going, the manual detection of networks doesnt show a single network in the list. I dont know what could the problem be, since the sim just works perfect in old phone.
By the way, what does

This is all new to me so sorry if im being a bit thick
i have an XDA exec on O2 but i wanna set it up so my mate can use it on orange (contract card) - i need to know everything i need to change. I know i have to do the message centre number for texts but what else ???
does anyone have the settings ???
swerver
Sim unlock it. See the pinned thread on the top of universal upgrading forum
No, don't. The Xda Exec is already sim unlocked.
lol yeah... Weird that I forgot as I also have an exec... No need to do anything beside using MaUpgrade_noID to install the ROM you want.

The SIM card.
If you want to get the MMS settings, GPRS and WAP you will have to go to the Orange site and search for them. The message centre sets itself up. The ROM you use doesn't make any difference to your phone, you don't have to put a different one in just because you're using another card.
If you give the phone to your mate and then get him to phone 150 they will walk him through setting the phone up to Orange settings. He should tell them it is an SPV m5000 or they will pretend they have no idea how to set one up because it isn't one of their phones.
Im keeping it blunt.... i havnt done anything to my brad new O2 XDA II mini, i am using a telstra simcard here in Australia and i cannot get any service, nor do i think it connects to my service provider. The only thing i did was upgrade to radio 1.13 a couple of min ago. Can anyone help me? ive tried different sim cards, and my sim card works on another phone!
ok, i took the back panel off and i was playing around with the exposed flat metal piece, which i assume is the anntena and for a split second i got two bars of service, which then i lost... so im back to square one... what can i do. Please help me.
I was running RoyalMIUI -1.4.1r3. I tried rebooting, installing another rom, same thing. Didn't drop my phone or anything!
edit :
I installed ice glacier and now it says limited service, and when I try to manually connect to t-mobile, it says " Unable to connect to network at this time, please try again later. Or it said Sim doesn't allow me " It said something like that.
Try pulling the sim card

Take your sim to t mobile ask them to give you a updated sim card

same thing happened to me about a month ago. there isn't much you can do to fix it. it has nothing to do with the sim card. unroot your phone and restore it back to stock rom then call tmobile and tell them your phone isn't receiving any signal. they'll send you a replacement phone
hi i have a rooted mytouch 4G..for some odd reason it wont read my sim card or even identify if their is one.i cant even get a 3g or 4g symbol. I have flashed rom after rom and im using a new radio 26.03.00.04..and i flashed another radio prior to that...could it be sim locked? or has the antenna died or idk..please any help will do thanks
Does it say Emergency Calls Only or No Service in the notification bar? Or does it show T-Mobile, and you have no bars?

You are combining numerous issues into one. The SD, radio, and ROM are all separate issues.
I would check the SD card and see if its still good. Second, I would check your APN settings. Some ROMs do not come with them installed and you have to manually input them.
If all else fails, flash a new ROM and try that.

Dear experts,
I just bought the Mytouch 4G off Ebay for my wife's birthday (unlocked so no contract). I have rooted an LG Optimus T before so I thought I could do the same to this phone. My only problem is that I did not have a sim card in hand so I rooted and upgraded the Royal Ginger Rom without the sim card. Now my phone is working perfectly but there is an error of "no sim card, emergency calls only," even after I insert a sim card that works with another phone. I am running out of ideas, the only thing to try is to somehow load the factory default which I did not back up. At the moment with gfree, s=off, please help :-(...
Two questions... Are you inserting the sim card as the symbol where u insert it shows? Second, is the sim card activated with a carrier?
