I have an O2 Atom with the following specs:
ROM 20080612B6WWE
EXTROM EX0503
RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00052
currently running on PDAVIET rom from Sonblack.
My problem is as follows:
1. when i boot up the pda everything goes smoothly except there is a network unavailable message in my home menu and a stupid "no network !" sign at the signal strength meter.
2. interestingly the green LED flashes every few seconds as if logged onto a network provider.
3. more interestingly the green LED flashes every few seconds as if logged onto a network provider even if i remove the SIM card and boot into the OS.
My previous configuration which used to work:
Original ROM from O2 Asia dependent on Windows Mobile 5.1
EXTROM EX0480
RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00049
Things I have tried to make her work:
1. Tested GSM module --> IMEI OK --> PASS
2. Tested Wifi module ---> PASS --> surfed internet using wifi --> OK
3. Tested Bluetooth module --> PASS --> sent files to another PDA --> OK
4. Tested FM radio module --> PASS --> FM radio working
5. Tested ROM checksum --> PASS
6. Flashed a dozen times using different roms and radio versions eg:
radio versions RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00052
RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00049
RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00048
RADIO R060822N_MN1ARC_RS00038
got these different roms from O2 atom wiki -- keep up the good job guys.
7. finally flashed from the latest O2 Asia provided rom --> USELESS
My theories:
1. There is no possible hardware issue with the internal antennae as i think even the wifi module shares the same antennae and wifi is working like a charm
2. There is no possiblity of a faulty SIM cause i have checked with a dozen different SIMS all of them give a no network error.
3. There is no possibilty of a Hardware error at the SIM contacts cause i can use SIM manager on all SIMS flawlessly and access contacts and sim info on all the dozen SIMS that i tested.
4. I have tested more than six SIMS in manual mode for different bands GSM 900, GSM 1800, GSM 1900 combination and auto mode ---> USELESS.
Extra Information:
1. GPRS is unable to connect --> gives some dailing error.
2. I cannot scan for available networks using manual mode -->
it shows me a scanning for all available networks dialog and then an
empty list is shown where i can select nothing.
3. I cannot scan for available networks using auto mode -->
it shows me a registering on network dialog and then a cannot register on
a selected network error.
4. All of the other SIMS are from different Network providers and are function
well in my other Nokia, Atom life phones.
I am at my wits end <----- to tell you the truth this is the fourth week i have been trying for a solution before posting all the details here.
Please share you theories, ideas, experiences with me on this thread so that other souls might be spared the mental torture of the O2 service centre and their bizzare claims.
Hoping for a solution <------ help me out
PS: Thank You for reading my post ..... your levels of Patience are increasing.
PS: I remember dropping my Atom off a height of 15ft due to which the side
bluetooth tranciever plastic cover came off ....... but hey the atom was
working after that. The real problem started after i flashed the O2 Asia
provided ROM with a some stupid localization update.
PS: Peace !
solved?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You mean you don't have to reset your device for working with it?
will it be detected everytime you turn on your MDA?
Have it hanged ever?
So why mine doesn't work?
Hi
Remove the drivers from your PDA by going to start-> settings->system-> remove program. Select the entries for the Sandisk card and remove them. Soft reset your PDA and then try the drivers from the website for PPC 2003.
After the driver has been installed. Please do another soft reset of the PDA and then insert the card.
Here is the configuration that should be on your PDA. The bluetooth support should be disabled. Tap on the two arrows on the top of your PDA. go to settings-> click on connections and then the advanced tab. then Tap on the network card to connect to your access point (AP). AP browser will be grayed
out, This is normal as we didn't develop a utility for pocket pc 2003. Make sure you have the automatically connect to non-preferred network option checked. If there are no items listed in the wireless networks box you can add your AP by tapping on "Add new Setting" Type the network name for your wireless network. You can find this in the configuration of your router. After you enter the name make sure "connects to" is set to "The Internet" and then tap on the authentication Tab. If you are not using the wep key, you can uncheck the box for wep. If you are using it on your router make sure to set it exactly the way it appears on your AP. When you finished making all those changes please tap on OK that appears up at the top. IF your AP is on, and within the range, you should see connected next to it and the tower to the left of it will have a
blue ring around the top. If you see a red X on the tower and it shows unavailable you should check the following:
1-IS the AP on
2- Is it in range 3- are your settings correct.
Once you see the connected next to your AP you can tap ok twice and begin using your wireless access.
It works for me

I have a wallaby with the XDA special edition ROM, and I'm using it with the Telefonica operator in Chile.
I just made the connections settings for the internet settings as the Telefonica company told me:
Cellular Line (GPRS)
APN: web.tmovil.cl
and in the dialing locations tab, under dialing patterns I set up the phone number to be dialed: *99***1# in the "For International calls, dial". (this is the only place where I can set the dialing number)
the user is "web" an password "web"
I believe all is ok, but when I try to make a connection, the phone shows the following message:
Phone:
UNKNOWN APPLICATION ..... Is this message ok?
and after that, it shows a Trouble Connecting message:
"The answering modem has disconnected. Verify the phone number and then try again. To change your... "
Any help?
Thanks a lot
i got that message when i didnt select the GPRS line...but you've done that :?
I'm thinking tha may be the radio version. My device have the 6.18.0 version.
Any ideas????
Unknown Application solved
Finally I solved the problem changing the ROM version in my XDA.
I installed the A.30.09 ENG T-mobile version, with the same settings for Telefonica in Chile and every thing connected OK.
Dear friends of XDA-developers, what do you think about this?
I has to be something with the different systems between Europe and America???
I thought that that was impossible to cross network settings accross other carriers ie o2 over orange internet too but igotta thinking theoretics again an thought back to basics an realized a description change "ityhere" an there "an sum proppa details umite jus be able to piggy back it altho as previously stated iaint rooted an am unable atmo indespite phone comp sayin iusd 170gb data last month neityeedless say my endless searches for knowledge wud continue aslong as i new there is always a way for me to help others or improve possible security loops
I'm got yesterday Wireles LAN Card SDIO 802.11b.Problem is that i can't connect my Qtek 2020 with this card.Can somebody help me about this problem?Thanx
Have you installed the drivers on your device? The card should have come with a CD, if not go to the manufacturers site.
Can you detect any networks?
Please describe the problem more precisely, and maybe someone can guide you better then this.
I'm totaly new in this.I tryed to folow instructions in manua.I instailed all drivers that i have recived,but still i can not find network and i have one wireless in my house.My main problem is that i don't know how i can make set up in my Qtek 2020.Thankx for any sugestion
Ok, I never actually used a separate SD card, but I just finished setting up my home network last week so I'll try to give you some pointers until someone more knowledgeable comes along.
1) If everything was installed correctly, you should get a new icon, in settings or programs (depends on the card I think) for the Wireless utility.
There should be an option to turn it on and off, so make sure its on.
2) If you are not sure how your network is configured, or just don't want the hassle of manually setting up the device, download Hitchhiker.
http://www.kasuei.com/hitchhiker/ its a free app that will automatically configure WiFi and connect you to the network. You will need .NET CF2 installed for it to work.
Also you can see any networks that were detected in Start->Settings->Connections->Network cards. You can choose there which one to connect to or manually configure the settings.
Thank you mr.Levenum!!!!
I will download tomorow this progam and i will try to connect SD card with Qtek again.I hope that will working well.Thank you too much for your help. Best regards
Hi!
I followed all instructions,and i instaled drivers and utiluty from instal cd.Problem is that my Qtek can't find any avalible wireles network and i have one in at home.I put all correct parameters for this network,but still nothing.I also tryed with program"Hitchhicker",but problem is the same,hi can't find any network.Have you any sugestion what more i can try.Thank you
Try checking the settings on you router.
Is it set to broadcast SSID?
What standard is the WLAN card B / G ? And what standards does the router support?
Also it is possible that your router is set to a channel the WLAN card does not support (my router supports up to channel 14, but my Jamin only up to 11)
Try using a different channel.
I seek other 9502 ultimate owners and experts advice on the below:
Upon trying to connect to the internet using the GPRS functionality, I always receive the following error message:
“Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacturer’s documentation and try again”
I have tried the following steps:
- Reviewed the connection settings picked up by the Imate configurator upon first boot, they were correct.
- Tried to remove the SIM card and use it on my JAMin, the device connected smoothly (with the above same connection settings).
- Hard reseted the device, still it didn’t connect.
- Checked the Operator settings of my provider on the internet, they are the same ones loaded by the Imate Configurator
- Tried another SIM card, same thing
- Went to the service provider and changed the SIM card and got a new one, same error
I shall appreciate any assistance.
UPDATE
Finally!!!!
After installing the new WM 6.1, the device connected smoothly
.
From a 9502 owner
Hi, I have read your post and looked at my Ultimate to find anything obvious and I cannot. I am on O2 in the UK and used the configurator settings which worked fine. If there are any settngs you would like me to verify for you, let me know.
Oh! did you check the phone settings as well as the network connection settings, it's possible that a default in there does not tally with your provider (Goto the Wireless Manager and Tap MENU|PHONE SETTINGS).
Cheers

Thx for your reply.
I have tried every possible combination of Network / Band selection from the phone settings but it didn't work.
Imate have responded that it may be a ROM issue and that they are working on an new updated ROM to be available soon that will probably solve the problem.
Meanwhile i am trying to figure out some registery tweak that could fix the problem (trial and error)
WM 6.1 Link please
Can you please post the link to the WM 6.1 ROM that resolved your problem.
Thanks

I have tried differents androids ROMs and all of them stucks the system at the GSM connection.
After the installation of the ROM with no problem at all, in the first boot of the installed ROM, while the initial configuration (selection of the languaje screen or Gmail Count selection screen) the system stops. Just when the icon of the GSM connection (up right) starts.
As it seems to be a radio problem I have tried differents ROM radios.
With WindowsPhone ROM, the system works without problem at all! (Just the Activation Codes... Thanks Microsoft!!!!)
May someone help me?
Thanls in advance!!!!
Don't try it with Windows Phone, try it with Windows Mobile 6.5 and make sure it's working there. Also, you could try it with the sim card out of the device. Though I'm not sure how GSM could cause the system to freeze.
I have tried with 2 differents SIMS of differents providers.
In both cases, the problem is the same: while the initial assistant of configuration the systemas starts, when the system starts with the GSM connection icon, the systems stops working.
Now I have Win 7.8 installed and everything goes fine.
