Hello everybody!!!
Can you help me please?
I have Siemens SX56, i bought it at ebay and unlocked by myself.
Is it possible to make a calls and stay online in the GPRS in the same time???
Usualy i can use GPRS or make a calls separated, not together....
Tell me please is it possible to upgrade GPRS for higher version???
How can i do that????
Please...
looking forward to hearing any messages of you,
Vadim.
The device only has one radio in it. It can either be making a phone call or it can connect to the internet, but not both at the same time.

i never had any issues recieving calls when being online with gprs they dont block eachother unless the operator make it so
Same here, I was on Tesco internet last night, received a call and the gprs internet stayed connected ok.

Hi All,
I'm using an Q2 XDAII mini.
I find that when I am connected to GPRS and I am downloading a web page, ie. data is being transmitted through the GPRS link, incoming voice calls will get rejected.
However, once the web page download is complete and the GPRS link is idle, an incoming voice call comes through fine.
My previous phone was a SE P900 and if a call came in while I was actively downloading data, the phone would prompt me and ask if I wanted to drop the GPRS connection - that was great!
I know that this is an issue with the XDA as it is a Class B mobile. I wanted to know if others have had this issue and if there are any updates/patches/hacks out there that could get around this.
Thanks
Hi All,
Any ideas ?
Same problem. Any workaround or patches ?

Hi everyone,
I am having an annoying issue with the GPRS connection on my Qtek S100.
I am usually connected through GPRS to receive my email and to be online with MSN Messenger. The only time I do not use GPRS is when connecting through Active Sync or when making/receiving a call. My problem is that if I do not explicitly end the GPRS connection before making a call or connecting through active sync I have to restart the phone by going to flight mode before I am able to get a new GPRS connection. The problem is even worse with incoming calls as I can not end the GPRS connection by pressing the red button before I answer the call as that will hang up on the person calling me instead.
I believe it got this way after applying the latest software upgrade from www.qtek.se.
Is anyone else having the same problem?
yes me to.. also after latest upgrade...
dont know what to do.. im gonna call brightpoint..
I've sent you a PM.
Let me know when you have spoken to Brightpoint and I will call them again.
Any news regarding this?
I do also have these problems with GPRS.
Works fine for me…
Hi,
I have up till now used Telia but just switched over to Comviq, works fine for med, both with Telia and Comviq.

Talked to Brightpoint today.
It seems like not everyone gets this problem, and to their knowledge none of their own phones has it. They did however hope for a solution with the next software update (no news on when that will be available though). They also asked me to contact Engström Telecom to find out if they had any idea. When I found time to call Engström they had closed for the week, so I'll get back with more info next week.
I had a slight variation on this problem. GPRS session was actively downloading data when a call came in, and then before I could answer it, a message came up saying that the call could not be answered. What's that all about?

My problem seems to have automatically cured itself during the weekend. I guess Telia must have made some upgrade to their network, cause I am quite sure I didn't do anything!
Hi all,
i just took my O2 Exec and i have some basic questions that seek for an answer quickly...
I cannot understand whether there is a simlock there or no... i put in there my sim card (Voda UK) and some strange things happen. i sometimes get a UMTS vodafone uk signal and other times a gprs one... Like every five minuits the G turns in to a U and so on.... What do i need to do???is there a simlock and if so how do i unlock?
How do i hard reset my phone and what ROM should i use?
Were can i get the Voda UK settings for mms and gprs?
Is there anything else that i should set in order to have a fully functioning mobile for sms, mms, voice calls?
and a not important one... shouldnt there be the skype software in my phone?
I know that i should search and find what i want but i am in the the midle of an assignment and i do not have the time to do so... Just need to have my phone functioning properly until i have the time to dig out the rest of the things that i want.So just forgive me for asking insted of searching.Wont happen again.
HELP ME
Excuse my bad english...
Thanx all

It is just moving between UMTS and GPRS. Mine does it too. If it can't get a good enough signal on UMTS it switches to GPRS. If it sees a better UMTS signal, it switches back.
How do i hard reset my phone and what ROM should i use?
Two soft buttons while pressing stulus reset hole. Nothing wrong with the O2 ROM so stick with that.
Were can i get the Voda UK settings for mms and gprs?

See above
and a not important one... shouldnt there be the skype software in my phone?
Only the JASJAR and MDAPro come with Skype IIRC.
Thank you for the extremely fast and accurate reply.
So there is no problem with the U and G thing. Ok then i will just get used to it. It was that i have never seen the U before.
U means 3G and fast data speeds.
it seems that i cannot manage to do the right settings so that my sms,mmsa dn gprs works. I found the settings but...no combination worked.
Anyway, is there a how to or something that i can check out?
Any other ideas?
Many thanx

You can install Skype yourself from the Skype website, but IMHO it's not ready yet. It's very slow and buggy, and the connection quality is questionable.
Wait a month or two until Skype is fully compatible with WM5 and the experience will be much better!
I am getting really confused here......
I managed to fix my gprs 3g settings (following a wm 2003 quide and using the settings from filesaveas) and i can surf the net but i still cannot receive and send any mms.
Any ideas????
HELP!!!
edit: Also is there anybody that has active sync 4.1? i cannot even syncronise my contacts.!

Not sure if this will help. I have the M5000 (Orange) version and video calls work fine - I just havent found a need for it yet!!
Matt
i probably wont have a need for it as such but, im one of these guys that likes stuff to be working 100%, wether or not i need it, because sum day i might need it, i get the internet ok using the umts its just video calls
maybe some descritpion or error message would help. I'm calling my wife with video everyday on mine.
it just says unable to make video call, do u want to make a normal voice call instead, sumthing like that neway
Who is your provider, I bought my Exec through One Stop and therefore I pay my monthly bill to Carphone Warehouse even though I am with O2, like you I could not get Video calls to work and got the same message. After contacting CPW I was told they do not support 3G and all I can get is the GPRS connection.
At £2.35 a megabyte!!!
:x
yes. It's probably an operator issue. MAke sure you don't have a wifi connection when trying to use video or it will not work.
You need to make sure both you and the person receiving the call has the facilty set up on the tariff you are using.
Just having gprs is not enough.
Phone them and make sure they activate the necessary other setting.
Do you have GPRS or UMTS connected (for push email, perhaps). I found that if I had an active GPRS or UMTS data connection, video calling did not work. When I closed the connection it worked fine.

O2 Ireland does not offer video calling yet (though it's 3G network is set-up, and it's *aparently* only a matter of time)....
k im in northern ireland, im with o2 uk, belfast is were i get my 3g signal
I have problems getting video calls to work too. The error message I get is "Video Call Fails".
I'm on Vodafone UK but with an Xda Exec on the latest QTek ROM. Talk about identity crisis. Got push email working so it can't be my UMTS connection.
thats wat i get aswell, has any 1 any solution or is it a replacement exec that i'll need?
same thing
same thing for me in france, it worked fine with original rom but upgrading to latests roms and radios makes it wrong.
even if i install all ext rom of original rom ( i saved it)
currently rom 1.30.97 fre with radio 1.11 with sfr provider
well, i dont know if it is a rom problem with me cos i never really used it back then it was shortly after i upgraded to the latest o2 rom that i first tried the video call, although i had tried it b4 but got the same thing, i have never got the video calling to work
Hi,
I have been given a sim free HTC Tytn and want to use it with UK Vodafone. I currently have an ex-Orange SPV M2000 which i unlocked and it has been working fine with my Vodafone sim. With my M2000 i can make calls and browse the internet at the same time, but with the new Tytn i cannot do this
Is there a fix, should i upgrade it to the latest version or perhaps try and flash it with the V1605 Vodafone flash??
Advice really appreicated from one of the many knowledgeable people on here please,
Cheers
I upgraded my M2000 to a M3100 (with Orange UK) and they said I had to have a new sim. That could be it.
Alternatively when I got my M3100 it had a *very* early radio rom, and I had some probs receiving calls while browsing. Recent roms have sorted this, I think.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
I have installed the HTC UK Settings .CAB file from this helpful post
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_provider_cabs
I can now access internet using my contract Orange contract sim card (which has GPRS activated) although if i am on the telephone i cannot go to browse without ending the telephone call.
my Vodafone contract sim needs updating so is not available for GPRS, but i presume this will be exactly the same.
Is it IMPOSSIBLE to use Internet browsing whilst making a telephone call??
All help appreciated, Many Thanks
if youre just on the GPRS network and not UTMS\HSPDA then yes its impossable to talk and surf. the whole point of 3G was to be able to do both at the same time. GPRS can only do one thing as the same with EDGE
so in short GPRS\EDGE = one thing at a time
UTMS\HSPDA = two things at the same time.
Hi, thanks for your reply.
I have just spoken to Orange customer services and i do have a 3G sim card and it is active, is there anything i should be altering in the settings menu or anything other files that need to be flashed or installed onto the phone?
Sorry for the lack of knowledge - hope one of you experts can help!
Thank you
Can anyone help me pleasse????
