Hi all
I've just changed mobiel provider from Telmore to Unotel in Denmark and I'm having some trouble with the new simcard.
The simcard I got from Unotel is not recognized in my Exec. There's no real error message. The phone app just reports: "Invalid or missing SIM card"
I've had some communication with Unotel support and they claim the problem is in the Exec not accepting simcard with lower capacity.
Their simcards is 16k.
Unotel can not provide me with a higher capacity card so I was wondering:
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a cure?
Telmore and Unotel both use TDC's gsm/umts network.
I've had not problems with my 32k Telmore simcard and the 16k Unotel card works fine in my SE K700i.
Kind regards
Asbjørn
your phone is sim locked
No I'm afraid that is not the problem.
I can use other simcards from different operators without any problems.
It's only the 16k Unotel card that causes me problems
Had exactly the same problem, had to change from CBB to "3" to solve it.
Nothing wrong with your phone.
I was hoping that it didn't had to come to switching operator one more time.
Since it's properbly a general problem with the Universal and low capacity simcards I was hoping someone (smarter than me) had encoundered this problem and solved it.
Or at least is able to confirm the problem is just related to 16k simcard and doesn't have to do with a special coding or something like that.
This way I can confirm with a new operator that it will not be a problem.

Hi Everyone
Got a Wizard (badged as an O2 XDA MINI-S) about 4 weeks ago but having nothing but problems with the phone functionality.
The problem:
The phone will loose connection to the O2 network. I could be in the middle of a phone conversation for 3 mins or so and it will act like it has lost reception. I look at the screen - it shows the call still connected and the signal strength shows full. Then the screen will say disconnected and the signal strength will drop to nothing yet the GPRS indicator will still be there. I either have to reset the phone or switch the phone to flight mode and back out of flight mode! This problem occurs if i make calls or recieve them.
I bought the phone on the standard ROM from O2 then upgraded it to the ROM version 2.21.4.101 which gave me the push functionality AUTD. I didn't use the phone long enough to tell if this problem occured after the ROM update.
Thanks to Faria and Machinagod's postings on here i was able to CID unlock the wizard to try a different ROM to see if that cured the problem. So i put the IMATE K-JAM ROM version 2.16.9.1 on yesterday, didn't add anything else on it, still the same problem!!
Any ideas anyone? i'm pulling my hair out now!! :evil:
First i would try cleaning the sim contacts, both on the sim and device. Sometimes faulty contacts lead to this problem. (poss faulty sim - have you another sim you can try?)
Next i would contact o2 to check there is no fault at their end e.g. faulty transmitter, computer systems.
If none of these solve the problem then its prob a faulty radio on your device and i would exchange for a new one.

Do you have a SD card inserted ?
If so remove it for the day and see if the problems persist.
Thanks for the suggestions guys.
The SIM card works fine in other phones (i've not had this one for long!) so i hope thats not the problem but i'll give it a shot. I'll try getting rid of all the contacts etc on the sim and phone and see what that does.
SD card - yes i have one inserted now but the problem was still happening when i didn't have one in there.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks for your help so far

heheh i think he means the actual contacts on the SIM! you know the metal bit of the SIM that makes contacts with the pins inside the phone!
not your phone book contacts!
HAHAHA LOL Stupid me!!!
lol thanks for pointing that out. :lol:
right - that didn't work anyone else have any ideas what could be causing this?

I am having the exactly same problem.
I am going to request a new SIM card from O2 as I think it is due to the SIM. Will let you know my result.

Exchange your phone - maybe a faulty radio in your phone. You could try a new sim but as you said you've tried it in other phones and they are ok.
Darklondon - thanks very much i'd appreciate the feedback!
Meschle - i've got to say i think i agree the phone has a problem! i just hope that if darklondon manages to resolve his issue with a sim card mine will work with the same resolve.
I also have this problem. Im on the T-Mobile network in the netherlands. When it cuts off you can see that there is no more radio contact (there is a cross on top). It then resets the radio and gets back. Within 10 seconds of the cut off i can be called and call back????
it's been a month since my last reply and I havenot yet change my SIM yet :shock:
however, i think i found the problem, at least, i think so.
the constantly cut off issue, for me, it's due to the overclocking. initially i overclocked my CPU to 264, which brought the instability to kill the "phone" program constantly. if you have any task manager try to kill a "phone" program, and you will see the signal bar goes off completely.
so, i changed my overclocking to 242. problem solved, no more cut off now.
wow really?! but i'm not overclocking .... mayube i should! i don't see the phone program in task manager?
I can see the "phone" program or say thread with SmallMenuPlus and vBar. And sometimes I can see more than one.
hm, I don't see a "phone" process with Memaid, but I'll try the reducing of overclocking too, since I have the same problem. 240 is the nearest option to 242 though in my omapclock...

I've found that this problem occurs using many of the AKU2 ROMS out there along with an application that requests a GPRS connection on a very frequent basis (GoodLink for me, MSFP, Agile Messenger for others).
The problem is that the application requests a GPRS connection, and for some reason the device decides to drop the call in order to connect.
For myself, this started happening after upgrading from a 2.17 summiter ROM, and continues regardless of what ROM post 2.17 I use. I've also tried flashing many different Radio ROMS, all to no effect.
I've been back to 1.8, and that's solved the problem. I'm now using a 2.17 ROM that I flashed today to see if the problem persists there.
This isn't an overclocking problem - as I never overclock.
I have a AKU2 ROM installed, though I never use GPRS (way too expensive here). So that can't really be it I guess...
Hi,
my prophet denies to connect to my service Provider (O2 germany) out of a sudden. It will connetct at startup for ca 1 Minute and then loose the Network.
I had the "Gullum Prophet touch some version before X" running for several weeks and then it stopped connecting. I just used it and did no installations or hackings.
The sim card works fine with an other phone and vice versa other sim cards don`t work with the prophet.
I've flashed the "Gullum Prophet touch X" and the Problem is the same.
Any Ideas? thx
I have the same problem too,tried all downgrade and upgrade options but no solution yet,any help appriciated tx.
Have you tried a different Radio ROM (the Wiki!), or altering the settings in Start->Settings->Connections (tab)->Connectons to those specific to your service provider?
similar problem
Not exactly the same - but seems like once a week or so I stop receiving calls and need to restart my PDA. Haven't found a solution yet - just something I started getting used to. It usually happens after a nightly charge.
My only suggestion would be radio ROM, or a different ROM entirely. (both on the Wiki).
sorry for not responding ...
and thanks for your suggestions. I had downgraded my rom and my Radio to the original shipped ones, but the problem is the same!
At least I had a konversation with my provider, that gave my some hope. She thought it might be a network problem and not a hard- or software failure!
why do I have to call them about 10 times saying the same things?
BUT: this call is 10 days ago and nothing has happend so far.
If there is anything new to tell about, I will post it
so long, dertka
Hi
I have some HTC Vogue's (HTC Touch from around here) with fixed dialing enabled. The problem is that a message is popping up telling me that fixed dialing is enabled every two minutes.
I have roamed around in the registry for a setting for this, without luck.
Anyone else having the same problem? Maybe an solution?

Same problem..
Hi,
I was just encountering the same problem on my HTC Touch (WM 6.1) and am wondering if you finally found a solution back then? I already gave my telephone provider as well as HTC a call, but without any luck or help .. :-( So, could you help me dealing with this? Thanks in advance, have a nice day

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.
