Hi, I got a second-hand XDA IIs today and have spent hours trying to get it to connect to Orange.
First I unlocked the phone and put in the Orange sim, all seemed okay except that next to the signal icon there was an exclamation mark.
Next I tried installing the latest Orange rom, this was successful as well and I essentially have an SPV M2000, but I still have the exclamation mark next to the signal icon.
Can anyone suggest how to remedy this?
Thanks in advance.

cant connect to internet, am i missing a setting that needs to be changed when using an orange sim (from my p900) instead of the o2 sim
Yes, you would need to make a new alternative connection prodile within the handset. I think the only setting required is the orange access point name which I THINK is orangeinternet
Im sure someone with an Orange contrat could clarify this
orange web access

Hi all
I have unlocked my M500 with the unlock.v1.16_138. When i put my contract orange simm in it would not work anymore. No problem as i have moved to o2. But using o2 payg simm the phone works. But every time the phone goes to stanby, the signal is lost. The phone then comes out of stanby and searches for 20 seconds, and connects again. The problem is all this activity runs the battery out in a few hours, and i miss calls when searching. It works perfectly with my orange payg simm.
I have tried setting select network to manual. And i have put version 4.21.1088 win 2003 on.
Thanks Terry
solved
I have solved this myself. I read a simular problem, and he said to push home the simm. I then saw the simm was loose and i squeezed the connectors. It now works perfectly. Just a bad simm connection.
Thanks Terry
Hi all
Please could you help me with this problem. I have recently had a replacement handset from Orange UK after my previous SPV M3100 died a painfull death.
The new replacement doesnt seem to get any signal majority of the time (No Service) and when it does its never over one bar and not enough to make or recieve a call.
I have updated/downgraded the radio roms and upgraded to WM6 (black satin) all with the same outcome.
I have tried my SIM in various other phones and get full signal. And my friend who has the same phone could not get a signal with his sim card in my SPV.
I have spoke to Orange who have passed the query to their technical support team who never seem to get back to me.
Any Help would be appreciated.
Hi all,
I have an XDA orbit which I have been using with my original o2 sim until recently! I was given another phone and the orbit was redundant!
I then decided to put my works vodafone sim card into the orbit, which worked fine!!
Company moved to orange this week, so I put my new Orange sim into the orbit, It worked fine for about a day and now doesn't! I cannot connect to the orange network, and when I go to phone setting to change the network etc I get a "Phone not ready, Try again in 15 seconds" message! - It doesn't matter how long I wait, I can't get access to it!
Can anybody help me please??
Thanks
Alex
Problem is sorted now!
Sim had come loose!
This can be locked up or deleted now!
Thanks

Hi, I'm a newbie so please be gentle!
I recently bought two 2nd hand Touch HD's, locked down to the Orange UK network. I bought 2 sim unlock codes and unlocked them. I put a T-Mobile PAYG sim in one, this works perfectly. In the other I want to use my 02 UK 3G contract sim however all I get is 'No Service' (interestingly the 3G works but not the phone signal?!)
What I have done so far:
I know the sim works, it'sfine in many other phones.
I know the phone's ok because my T-Mobile sim is ok.
I tried to enter the network manually, it scans, then shows O2,Vodafone Tmobile etc, I select O2 ater a minute or so it says no network (all the time the network strengthisnil too).
I have been in and around London all day today and still no signal so it cannot be some wierd HTC/O2 blackspot
I thought I'd go down the road of ROM's, the settings before were:
BLAC100 32m
SPL-1.14.0000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
WM 6.1 Orange UK ROM (I guess, had the Orange startup screen)
The settings now are:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.4. Olinex
I've installed various ROMS (about 4 - HTC HK, a couple of DuttyExtremes etc).
I read somewhere on here that someone had sucess with radio 1.13.25.24, and so I tried that too, still the same.
Any ideas?
Did you do it via this way? Start>Settings>Connections>Connection Setup> Select the correct provider.
Yes, I have tried that, still an exclamation next to thwe phone signal I have ordered another O2 sim. What Radio should I be running on it?
Not sure which are recommended for 6.1 sorry. Check the radio thread in the stickies.
Hi, did you find solution? I have exactly the same problem, internet working, but not the phone. No signal at all.
Still no luck
I have tried several 02 sims even had mine replaced - all the same.
