Must reboot IMate PPC (XDAII) after every call - HELP? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi,
I have an IMate PPC (XDAII) with the factory installed Windows 2003, and service from AT&T (Cingular). Starting about a months ago, I've had to reboot my phone after a call in order to make another call or to receive one.
Before I try hard-reseting my phone or reflashing the roms, I want to find out whether anyone has an idea about whether the problem might be software, firmware, or hardware related. The phone works great, I just need to keep rebooting to keep it working. Thanks in advance for any advice on this.

I have exactly the same problem with my Orange SPV M1000. I've searched the forum very well. I could only find the same problem and no solutions.
Please help us!?

Qtek 9090 and problem with On/Off mode

Hi to the list,
i own a Qtek 9090.
It have just got a problem.
I cannot switch the Pda off by the switch.
It seems to be a problem with the switch but i think that the switch works because how i said befor it does not only switch off the pda.
if the Pda is already on and i switch it on with the bswitch it works.Also if i keep pressing the switch the light goes off and if i repeat the command the light comes on again so the problem is only for switch it off.
Actually to switch the Pda off i am using the SPB software but i cannot use it forever.
Anybody had the same problem?
Is there anybody which can suggest me how to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance.
Any help will be apreciated.
You're always welcome here but since you own a qtek9090 it's best that you repost your question on the BA forum. This is the Magician forum.
That seems like a software problem as the physical switch seems to work for other states. Have you tried hard reset to see if problem persists without any programs installed. Make sure you backup your data first.

Any other help will be apreciated.

Problem with basic phone call function

Hi all the buddies out there...
Did anyone experience problem with making calls and receiving incoming calls? I tested the ROM without any add on application installed. When I call my mobile, the first attempt will not be able to connect and it will end up into my voice mailbox. Second attempt will wake up the phone and get connected. Sometime, first few calls will be also failed.
About making calls, sometime I can't dial out and need to try few times. It make me very frustrated with the problems of the basic function of a "phone". I really appreciate any suggestions or fixes you may be aware. Many thanks.
Make sure you hardreset with NO/YES/YES options.
Hard reset does not help at all
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Of course I do hard reset everytime I upgrade my BA code and when I wanted to clean up my phone. This is a normal procedure.
I believe everyone who is using it as a phone will not live with the phone function problem. I would appreciate whoever ever experienced this problem and have the work around method can share with me. Billion thanks and hope I can really get a solution. It is really frustrating...
i read your previous posts (re WM5 roms), and it is puzzling why your unit exhibits problems on calls even then...
is your radio already v1.15?
I did not have any call function problem with the earlier version of WM5. Ever since I upgraded my WM5 to newer version, I started to have the phone's problem.
I tried to downgrade the radio firmware from 1.15 to 1.13 to 1.12.
1.12 so far give me the least problem. I experienced drop calls occasionally, but huge reduce in incoming call problem. I still can live with sometime cannot make outgoing calls. The most important, people can reach me more consistently.
I had this problem on Orange UK; a new SIM card fixed it. Try borrowing a SIM card from another phone and see if the problem still exists for you.
had changed to a new sim card but problem persist..I think will just throw away my BA...
Wouldn't be cheaper to go back to WM5 or WM2003SE, instead of [FONT=&quot]throwing[/FONT] the BA...?
Downgrade radio
Or maybe downgrade your radio version?
I experience the problem with Radio 1.12.
When I upgrade to 1.15, the problem is gone.
Thanks to Helmi to give us this great ROM.

TyTN is on but calls are not getting through

I have an HTC branded TyTN and even though the phone is on and the reception shows strong the calls are not getting through. Also when I try to make calls they are droped.
This does not happen all the time but very often. I miss about half of my calls.
Anybody has any ideas?
Need a little more info to help solve your problem.
1. Where are you located.
2. Who is your service Provider
3. Has the phone ever worked right with this provider
4, How long have you had the phone and was it new or used when you got it.
5. Does it still have the same Rom and Radio on it as when you got it.
6. What versions are those.
7. Have you tried a hard reset
Answer these for starters and let's see what we can do to help you out.
I am located in Cyprus and the service provider is cytamobile-vodafone. The phone was purchased from expansys.com.cy
It worked fine for more than a year. Although this particular problem occured very rarely during the first year.
I know of at least one more person who experienced this problem for a short period of time but it was sorted out on its own.
The only update I made to the phone was installing Windows mobile 6 from the official HTC website. The phone worked fine for a few months after the update.
No other update of any rom was made.
I tried a hard reset but it did not help.
OK, and thanks for the response. Based on what you have said, my only other suggestion would be to check your version of radio installed. If you are unfamiliar with how to do that, it appears on the screen at every reboot, or, you can go to settings, device info and it is listed there. I am unfamiliar with service Providers in Cyprus, so I would suggest doing a search of the forums to see if you can find another user with your service provider and a similar phone to see which radio works best for them. If I remember right, the WM6 update from the HTC site, does flash a new radio also, and that may be the problem. If you can't find anything, start a new thread with a title like best radio for cytamobile-vodafone in Cyprus, and hopefully you will only get relevant responses from fellow countrymen.
Does anyone else have any ideas to help this fellow XDAer out? Sorry I couldn't be more help.
thank a lot steve

herald driving me crazy (gsm/gprs)

hi!
at the moment i have my third herald from o2 germany,also known as xda terra. all three have the same problem:
i use activesync and an exchange server to use push-email via gprs. but my herald decides to not let me communicate with the rest of the world. after the subway and switching the operator (o2/t-mobile d) (too) often it refuses to establish a gprs connection.
it tries, but fails... but best thing to come: it shows me full network coverage, but i can't call anybody, and anybody can call me. after a softrest, everything works again. gprs instantly, and even a normal phone call is possible.... (wohooo ) and that really annoys me, especially having a mobile phone, and nobody can call you even everything seems okay to you.
i already tried it with, and without installing the extended rom. - no change. first i thought it's probably some software i installed, but after the last hard reset i did not install anything. same problem. last idea of the o2 support was a new sim-card. but no change.
in my eyes it's a radio-rom problem, but o2 does not offer any updates, therefore there is no official way to test that. i would love to try out a custom rom and radio update, but because of warranty reasons i won't do that.
my radio-rom version is 02.85.90, does anybody know whether there are such problems with this version? OR, does anybody have any idea how to solve my problem? at the moment im really ******...
thanks in advance!

Help! Atom Exec Auto Answers on WM5!

I have reflashed the lates O2 ROM, but calls coming in to my atom exec will cause it to buzz or ring for around 3 seconds and then the call is automatically picked up! This is a good feature IF you want it at certain times, but it makes the phone unusable in a biz setting.
All software is uninstalled after the re-flash, and I even flashed the latest WM6.1 to see if that would correct the problem (off this site). No luck.
Has anyone heard of this before? Suggestions? I had a lot of SPB software and Burr Oaks Wake-up Tweak but I didn't notice this problem before I moved to a new network. The same sim works on my nokia and motorolas, so don't think sim problem.
Thanks for any help...
I got the same and worked around it
Dear friend i got the same problem hard reset , reflash wont work. The last resort that worked for me is changing the SIM. Once i did this it worked for all the SIMS . ( I sold my Exec and the customer complained about this then i noticed the problem occur only for certains SIMs )
mail me [email protected] if you have any problems.
