Dear Magician Owners
I own an Imate JAM, and I'm facing a problem which is :-
When i got a phone call, the caller name sometimes never appear even i am waiting for few seconds (2 rings and more) before picking up the line, While the name appear later on after hanging the line !!!!
Any Idea, how to solve such problem ?
I have about 500 contacts in my PPC contacts list, Does this affect on this case?
Thanks for your usual support.
I have a 2i but I believe it's probably the same issue that EVERYONE with caller ID XDA's has from time to time. In fact I'm sure it's been mentioned lots of times previously...have you tried searching for it?
Anyway, I doubt that 500+ contacts helps as it still has to search through all those records for rows that match that mobile number.
Cheers

For the past few weeks I have been happily using PPC 2003 with no real problems. Yesterday I receieved a annoying spam sms text message.. I deleted the text and my phone suddendly crashed!! I tried soft resetting but no joy.. so I tried hard reset but to my horror the screen showed GSM ERROR in the bootloader (I was a bit worried).. I tried to restart teh GSM but it kept failing. I then tried the soft reset and the 'Windows Test only screen was displayed but the XDA model number and radio stack version were not. The Unit version of PPC 2003 was displayed however.. Anyway basically the xda did not an expensive brick I thought!!. I tried downloading the ROM again via SD card method but no joy.. I also tried installing an old ROM but still no joy.
Anyway I slept on the problem and decided to maybe do some drastic measures i.e the sodlering e.t.c After waking up the XDA was flat as a fart!! so i plugged it into the mains and to my suprise it worked!! not sure what I had reset by letting it go flat but it did the trick.
anyway I've seen other people with the similar problems.. hope this gives a bit of hope to you guys.
can anybody explain the problem though...i.e why it happened.
Question: are you in the target audience for high-end intelligence methods or in the target audience to have a completely new and evel exploits tested against you?
The fact that it was a spam makes me wonder: they may have tried something with the User Data Header which looks more obnoxious on a Nokia or so, and inadvertently crashed the Radio Stack on your box. If this is the case, the interesting question is whether this provides what called an 'arbitrary code' buffer overflow. If (big IF) so, one can hack our Modem parts remotely. If this is the case, the attacker would still need to hack the main processor from the modem part over a few serial lines. But this would be an interesting challenge, and when succeeded, one would get a major round of applause at a hacker convention.
Let's not all go nuts, but lets be aware of strange RSU crashes: Once is an accident, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action.
The fact that I received a spam SMS (I believe) has no bearing on the problem I encountered. I seriously don't think that the text mesasage was the cause of the fault but just an incident that occured leading up to the fault.. I'm sure that somebody telling me I had won 10K and asking me to ring a £1.90 per min number didn't intensionally add code to the text to crash the xda.
As you said there seems to be a problem with the radio stack.. which could be related to opening a text or deleting it or something totally different.
For the records I'm using O2 v21 of the radio stack.
Hi there, please help me out. I have the O2 mini and been using it for half a year and all of a sudden I can't read any text messages. I see I have unread messages but nothing can be read.
Also sometimes, it shows 0k along the righthand side of the screen from top to bottom but nothing can be read again. Does anyone know why?
What happens when you put the SIM card in another phone? Can you read SMS then? It sounds like the XDAII isn't getting the complete SMS from the network.
I tried inserting the sim card into another 02 mini and it works so something must of happened to my phone. my current rom is
1.11.00wwe
radio version: 1.11.00
extrom version: 1.11.922 wwe
Please help. My phone still has warranty and I have a relative going back to the country where the phone was bought so I'm thinking if I should get them to bring it to the store where I got.
Also, does anyone think upgrading the firmware will make a difference? If yes please let me know which one I should use. I am in Canada.
Why don you try a hard reset..!

A hard reset means pressing the reset button (the small hole on the lower left hand side of the handset case) and holding down the power button simultaneously for at least 2 seconds. The phone will then reboot. Be sure to save your contacts to your SIM and back up any pics to an MMC or SD card if you have one inserted in the SDIO slot.
thanks for the help. I did a hard reset then reinstall my rom and now it works.....strange....oh well it works now thanks for the input
SMS problem
hey all sorry to jack this topic but my jam sends duplicate sms's. not all the time but every now and then i get friends saying they got the same msg twice? i've checked my bills and i'm not being charged for the extra sms. i know that this happens occassionaly because of the networks but this is happening to much and becoming a bit of a pain!
No problem, 2k3silver.
boh113, I have this problem from time to time as well with my MDA II. Sometimes I try sending a reply but the network simply won't send it because I won't get a on-screen confirmation and the MDA II won't immediately store the sent SMS in the "Sent Messages" folder. However, the SMS does get sent and then the recipient tells me that they got the SMS more than once.
A hard reset seems to be the best solution since the ROM probably gets corrupted/unreliable with time.
Do you guys use any task management app to make the default tmail.exe application to close rather minimize? Dont! tmail.exe application should be minimized and i think that causes the problem of sending multiple sms.. Try it cz i may not be very sure..
Regards
Carty..
That could be the issue but not for me since I don't use any kind of task manager. Even if I did, I would have tried ending after reading about your suggestion. Is tmail.exe the general SMS/e-mail program on MDAs using T-Mobile ROMs?
Yeah the default mail application..Tmail.exe! That application should be minimized and not closed.. Cz when i used to close it with wisbar before, i had the same problem but now ive made the settings in wisbar to minimize it and now it goes fine..
Regards
Carty..
Thanks for the clarification. I did a soft reset this morning and the SMS that had been stuck in the Drafts folder for a couple hours was sent right after I tapped Send.
hello all,
the phone application in my I-mate k-jam does not dial, it receives fine and i can talk. but whenever i try to dial a number it just displays dialing... and waits there and does not end the call if i press the end button. until after a min the app closes.
i reflashed it with the newst k-jam rom but same result.
what can i do?
edit: if i leave the phone dialing after a few minutes it tells me operation faild.
the phone is not in flight mode if any...
i tried with a different sim card, the phone dialed ok. this is weird. what can it be?
Sometimes the contacts on the sim get dirty, have you tried cleaning all the contacts - device and sim?
how should i clean them? and i noticed that it does not show the name of the contact while i imput the number(manual dialing) while it used to previously.
Just clean them with tissue or lint cloth or a screen wipe - just dont get any fluid on or in the sim. Its often grease or fluff etc.. If that does not work maybe new sim from your operator.
hahaha silly me, i thought you were talking about the stored contacts (people s numbers) hahahah
tried that, didn't work. how come it receives the calls fine and i can see the contacts from the simcard. it's just the phone application hanging when dialing a number
Unbeleivable. hahaha . i use a postpaid card with a call cost limit feature. i thought that this feature was inforced by the phone since i used to reset it from the phone. when i switched to the k-jam it does not show the call cost limit but it still inforces it . i put the sim card in a friend's phone and lo and behold it shows an amount of 0 units available and it does not allow me to dial , i reset the limit and IT'S ALIVE .
Now how can i manage this feature from the k-jam, it seams it's a sim feature and it requires entering the pin2 code to modifie it.
if not tool is available maybe i can right one if pointed to the right API to use.
Thank you all.

Man reading that post makes me sick. Most Indians are lazy people and here is a prime example. They also want the answers the quickest way. Use the SEARCH function its there for a reason. Since i am indian too i have the right to say this stuff. Here is some information on the problems you are having.
1)you can try these:

2) pull out the stylus when you are in a call and the notes application will open so you can write down whatever the hell you are writing and that will be stored so you can access it later.
3)I dont understand what you are talking about. Do you have a custom ROM or stock?
edit: by the way this thread is in the wrong section it needs to be in the Q and A thread in the Raphael sub forum.
Hello
How are you, I have a HTC HD mini
Of course, I'm in the Middle East in Saudi Arabia
I would not say I regretted that I bought this machine but Despaired of problems
I want you to solve the problems .. Because the company did not solve my problem
The first problem: if the slide in the device I slice prepaid so I can make calls must have a balance of more than 19 SAR
Though less so I have to turn off the machine and then re-run so that I can call again, "with each call"
The second problem: When someone sends me a message it to contact me directly, but left his stronghold to another person sends me a message .. Vts the first and remains suspended to the new third person to send a message ... Etc. Thus
Please note: that the two remained more than two weeks in the security did not solve the problem .. I found someone else had the same problem and also not solved ..
Many of you have a solution?
