Help!!! My MDA no longer working....

Hi,
I was using the phone a few hours ago and everything is working fine.
Now, I'm trying to make a call and cannot! It says "no service found" and there is an exclmation mark next to antenna. I tried manually selecting the T-mobile network. Still, not working.
Also, all of a suddent, it won't let me access my contact list. It won't let me run any programs. It won't even let me get to the Phone program.
It won't recognize my miniSDA card either.
I rebooted the MDA and did the soft reset 4-5 times, still not working.
I did drop the phone in a parking lot 2 days ago, but it didn't physically have any damage and it's been working fully since that drop..up until just NOW!
I called T-mobile Support ... they are willing to give me a replacement MDA..so I guess that will be fine.
However, I cannot access my contact list - Does anyone know any way I can get my contacts off this MDA ???
Also, 4 mos ago, I installed a ROM from this site which supposedly unlocks the phone. Will T-mobile have a problem with this when they recv my phone ? Or no problem?

also..
by the way....
The phone will not sync with my laptop running latest ver of active sync.
It will say "connected" on both MDA and Laptop, then I get a pop up error on my laptop, some thing like:
" unable to syncronize with device, please check device and try again etc.."

OK - I got a replacement from T-mobile.
Now, can anyone tell me how to get my OLD contacts off the old mda and into the new one?
FYI: It won't connect via activesync

network problem (Qtek s100)

Hi,
I bought a Qtek S100 from a friend a few days ago.
The problem is I can't recieve a network.
When i start the phone, I have to enter my pin code and I can see my contacts and everything works as normal. But when the phone searches for a network, after 5 seconds an exclamation mark appears next to the network-recieve-icon.
It says "no service".
So now I can't make a call of send a text message.
I tried soft and hard reset, trying all the settings, another sim card, but that all doesn't help.
What can I do about this?
Is my phone simlocked?
Please help
Jonas.

try to change a radio rom

how do you do that?
never heard of that

Are you using the same provider as your friend? Does your sim work ok with other phones? I guess that it's sim-locked. Try borrowing a sim from another friend whose provider is the same from whom you bought the unit.

Have i bought a stolen Trinity?

First of all, this is my first post and I would like to excuse my bad english ^^
Okey, so here's my situation. I bought a phone over the Internet from a private seller who claimed she did'nt know wether the phone was SIM-locked or not. She also claimed that she had used two sorts of SIM cards, with two different operators.
So, I tried with my card. It says (i have in Swedish, so i'll translate as good as I can) "No service". So I went in to Settings -> Network and at the top it says "Current Network: No Service" . I have tried everything in those menues, like choose network manually and such. Everything comes down to the same, No service at the little icon at the top screen.
So, I runned the Unlock-service that I found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293957. I did it step by step and it worked perfectly, except one thing; my problem stands.
So what should I do? Have i missed something? If the phone shows to be stolen, I think it's weird that I even got into the phone. I can use Wi-Fi and such, that works properly. Activesync, no problem at all.
What should I do?! Please, please help me!

Call the police.
Find out from a phone company if the IMEI is blocked.
Not a lot you can do but Call the authorities and get them to deal with it.

If the phone is reported stolen it wont stop the phone working as a PDA, it will just block it's usage as a phone.
Ebay has a link to check stolen phon (before you buy) - http://www.checkmend.com/uk/ - You need the IEMI number use *#06# to get it. The service isnt free, but is recommended by the Met Office.

eventually this helps you:
i've had a trinity in "active service" for about one year,
and i've noticed the following:
everytime i used a sim card which i had never used before
in the trinity, it tooks minutes to get the "no service" away.
after the fist initialisation of the new sim, every further
turning on the device (till i get a service) was much
faster.
so let the phone at least 10min with your sim, if you
would still no service, then you should check your imei.
and: sometimes you have to click on the "services" tab
in the title bar to get to the pin verification. for some
reason sometimes that did'nt come automatically frontwards
for me...
good luck & regards,
markus

i would check via the ebay link, if that comes up ok just reflash the phone with an radio and see if that works. If the imei is ok and the flash with the radio doesn't fix it then you might have a hardware issue.

Problem solved! I tried with yet another operator, and it worked! So the problem is locked. I'm going to the store tomorrow to lock it up. Hopefully that will do the trick. Thank's guys!

why go to a shop to unlock it when you can get it done for free on here

I can't get that thing to work. It says "No service" with my SIM! I have posted in the thread for it but noone answers. Could someone help me?

Please Help! Problem with signal!

So okay, I've posted this topic earlier but forgot it and stuff so here's the problem:
I have a HTC P4350, with provider KPN (Netherlands). I've never had any problems at all, but when I tried to 'pimp' my phone a bit, it went wrong. I had to do a Hard-Reset on it, but when I did this, my phone isn't having a good signal!
So usually you have the 3-4 bars at your connection logo, but even when I'm outside sometimes, it won't find a signal and there will be the 'No Connection' error. I cant make a call/ be called or send a message/receive messages.
Please help me.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try another radio mate, you can find a lot in the Wiki depending on your device and actual ROM, I had similar problems and after testing 5 different radios finally found the more suitable to me
Hope this helps
Good luck

AAAAAAH
WHICH RADIO DO I NEEDD!
I LIVE IN EUROPE, THE NETHERLANDS..
this is soo annoying.

Same problem
Hello
I have this same problem with my XDA Zinc. Yesterday something happened to my PDA and since then its not showing up any network service.
Though all the other "wireless" features are working, this one alone is screwed up.
It searches for network and then says No service or Unavailable.
I tried phone settings -> changing the Network from Automatic to Manual, but then says it cannot read the network settings. I also tried "Set network" , but same error.
I am staying in switzerland and i have a mobile connection called Lebara.
Four months back, when i bought this connection, i had the same problem, but i did something and fixed it. (As far as i remember i fiddled with the Set Network, and it showed me list of all networks from all the countries, and i checked my service provider, and it worked). after that i never had any problems, until yesterday afternoon.
I put my sim card in another mobile phone and it worked. i tried soft reset and even hard reset, but all in vain.
One doubt i have about the hard reset, : It displays a screen with DOS like fonts and when i give hard reset, it restarts. But i have all my data (softwares and contacts intact.) did it really do hard reset?? If not how do i do that?
Also can you give me links for latest ROM updates, I am just wondering if a ROM update would fix this up. i have windows mobile 6.0.. Any "official" updates after that for XDA Zinc??
Please help me as i get very important calls , and i am completely paralyzed since morning.

Ok.. I am not sure if this is the problem , or if doing something with, my problem would be solved..
I went to O2 Autoconfig, and there It says ,
Current Network: 3 Australia
Detected Network: Lebara
And in Preferred Network,
Country: Australia,
Operator: 3 Australia
The country does not have Switzerland..
Though my network is Lebara, and it shows detected network as same.. Does it mean that it "knows" its Lebara, but due to some reason its not connecting.. , or is it that it is the "history" of my last connection..??
I am not sure, but if i can add "Switzerland" inside country list, then i may be able to solve this problem. (am i correct? )
If so, how do i do that..??

ok..
Now that nothing is working , i am getting F****** frustrated.. I tried Schap's Setup operator. http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2008/01/29/schaps-setup-operator-v03.html
However it does not show my service provider for my country (Switzerland)..
I put an orange sim card (since it had orange in the list).. I tried this again with this new orange sim card.. but that also didnt work..
Can anyone help me out PLEASE????????????????????????????
i need help ASAP... PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe

HTC Tytn ~ No Service

Hi Every1!!
I have used HTC Tytn with Windows Mobile 5 previously... today I have bought another one with windows mobile 6 professional...
It was prefectly alright... I tried GPRS/Edge... Msging... Calling... Everything....
I tried to install persian language... it asks for reset... I do it... and after that my HTC stops at Windows mobile logo for a long time... I reset thrice and then take out the battery pack... remove SD Card... Remove Sim... and it works...
But after that when i have inserted sim it shows No service...
Although i have tried to change the automatic network selection to manual from Start> Settings> Personal> Phone> Network
It shows all the services availble in my country but when i select the one i am using.. It first shows the message box registring sim on the network.. and then the same error...
I have tried multiple sims but not a single sim works.. while the same sims are working absouletly great in the other sets
Can any body help me to solve this problem...
I guess it is due to windows mobile 6... can any body guide me how to uninstall wm6 and install wm5!!

If you bought the Hermes 2nd hand it could have been reported stolen meaning that you won't get it working on the network. It may also be locked but I'd suggest checking with your network if it has been reported stolen. You'll need the IMEI number, dial *#06# to get it.
If its not you could try to sim unlock it.
Cheers...

but i m able to recive msgs on that sim... how is that possible if set is blocked??....
I have searched on the internet.... this problem also arises to other uers who upgraded from WM 5 to WM 6.. thats why i have thought that this problem is due to WM 6..
Any body guide me how to unistall WM6 and install WM5
