Hi guys...
I'm on T-Mobile UK, and I'm having problems with GPRS. I did have this working on ppc 2002 (XDA Dev 1.2)... After upgrading to ppc2003 I just can't seem to get GPRS working (Get a "Cannot connect" error).
Can anyone recommend a good/working radio stack for T-Mobile UK, and possibly provide some linkage... Thanks
Confirming you also upgraded the radio stack? If so what was the radio stack version before you upgraded it?
Hey Qman... It was version 4.01, and after upgrading to 4.21 from O2 it killed off GPRS. I _think_ the reason maybe because 4.21 uses class 8 GPRS, which T-Mobile may not support.

Ok try changing your band from the boot loader and see if that helps.
Warning: Going into boot loader mode under WM 2003 will result in a hard
reset so backup your system first.
HTH
First thing I tired, no joy... Although not that it matters now...

I read you post, now can you explain how you broke it?
I ask this question because there is always hope of repair! :wink:
hehe... Well I was doing a radio upgrade, and the phone restarted (as normal.. you know where you get the white screen and the percentage bar)... But I left the SD card in, and it came up with "Do you want to format...", but this seemed to crash it, and the device locked totally... I soft-reset... and then it just came up with the O2 bubbles, but rather than saying R <version number> at the bottom in red.. it just showed an R..
After about 4 minutes of hanging at the o2 bubbles, the device looks like it tries to carry on with the radio upgrade, the screen goes white, and a blue bar appears at the top of the screen. You can also see the little keyboard icon in the bottom right corner. But thats all.. Theres no writting, or detail anywhere on the screen. If I keep pressing the volume button, the today screen will appear, although where the start menu is, its obstructed by a blue bar.
Any ideas? lol
Yep - buggered, isn't it :twisted:
Only had it for about a week lol
Oh well, time to buy another one :evil:

I have been having the exact situations like yours. Keep pressing on and off the volume button following the G and R (empty protocol & Radio staock versions), until you see the empty white screen with empty blue bar. It's not easy, but it's possible to get back the blue bar with all working menus. (my experiences count: 2 out of 20 unsucessful tries; yes, I have spent 5 agonizing days).
See other postings that I made...

If this works... I'll buy you a beer 8) hehe
Okay, I can get the volume control and today to appear on the screen, by pressing the volume/record button on the device, and tapping where the speaker icon should be... Although the blue bar is still going across the top of the screen, going over the top of where the Start menu should be... How do I do it, so it drops down the start menu?
Thanks
YESSSS I FIXED IT
After I got to the today screen, I used the repair.zip method, and it worked!!! I'm a v.happy man
good for you..
but i have not been so lucky... I don't know why..
it could be that I accidentallyselected the GSM1900 band after I upgraded to TMobile WM2003 4.01.00. Then the phone stopped working then the unsuccessful RSUpgrade etc. etc.
Damn these XDAs!!! :twisted:
Hello I've got an Tmobile Ameo wich is a brand of the HTC Athena with an Olipro SPL copyed on it with the Athena Unlocker by Olipro.
Today I've copy much Data on my Microdrive useing my Windows Xp PC and the Programm WM5torage. I did this serveral times before and it works everytime smooth.
But today my Battary went out of power while this copyprocess and I didn't recognize it because the Athena was turned to Silent.
So my Display went of.
So I changed the Akku but when I pulled out the empty one my Athena show a very strang just white Screen.
I put the new full Battary in and tryed to launch.
But if I drop down the power key just the light of the "OK" and "Windows" Buttons goes on. If I press the powerbutton agein they went off again. There is nothing on the screen.
If I try to Hardreset the device then there happens nothing instead of the Actionkey light went green and off again.
But one time I tryed to enter hardreset mode I first saw the Screen with the different Colors from the Bootloadermode but then a verf similar screen but just with a blue color and colors between grey and white.
After this I recognized that If I touch some places of the device the Display turns on but only white and after a time off agein.
This is very strange because nothing mechanical happent to the athena.
Entering Bootloader Mode ends in the white screen too without success.
What should I do?
Edit:
I just recognized that my Windows Mobile is still running.
If I press the Voice Button there are 2 beeps and if I say a name he also repeats.
So it must be just a display problem but I dont understand because the display still works.
Edit2:
Next Thing if I press a bit on the back of the device, the screen is normal again but after sometime there comes grey lines and then it goes fully white very slowly.

Yes I also think so.
Do you know how long it takes to let an Athena Repair?
Since yesterday and suddenly my handset (XDA Orbit) can´t work. The reason is that a white screen has appear, with the red led switched on, on the top of the PDA and the vibration activated (This 3 elements appear at same time, together).
It was running under WM6. I tryed hard-reset with any result because at a low time this 3 elements appear and only stopped when I take of the battery.
Any one knows what is happening???
Any solution???
Thanks!!!

Hi everybody, i have a "small" problem on my G4.
One day suddenly screen start becaming white with some vertical colored lines.
No respond.
Tried to HardSPL, SoftSPL, remove battery, flashing different ROMS, disassemble to check if any HW visible problem.
Sometimes this phenomena apper on splash screen (only solution is reset and/or remove battery).
Sometimes load everything, the stuff can be used until the "randomic" effect.
Screen color became lighter until the whole screen is white with some vertical lines. It takes several steps to go totally white, 1 or 2 seconds.
Do not know if it is related to the above mentioned problem but most of the time i plug-in and activesync do not "feel" the pda i connected.
(tried on two different PC, tried with activesync later release 4.5 and also previous 4.2 )
What the hell can be?
Is it bricked or maybe i can try something else?
I read other post with people mentioning the same problem, but up to know i found no useful answers.
Any help will be appeciated
Thanks
i have the same problem...
Its totally random when it happens, like i used the phone all weekend / yesterday without a hitch and now, i have restarted 5 times this morning... anyone else had the problem and sorted it?
hmmm this had happend to me but only on a certain ROM that i flashed before...
what i did was that i flashed another ROM again and this problem disappeared... ofc after hardspl'ing and following the procedures on how to flash a ROM properly...
maybe you should try to flash another ROM downgrade to NVID rom first then hardspl then flash what rom you like...
good luck
