Phone side of my XDA has mind of its own. Please help!!!!

I have problems with the phone side of my XDA.
It keeps turning off by itself every 20 or so minutes.
I have upgraded to
ROM 4.21.00 ENG
Radio 4.21.00
Protocol 32S54
Still no changes. PDA worksfine but phone still turns off by itself.
Any sugestions please.
Thanks

what's your device type ... PW10A or B (rear sticker) ? and what's the band width of your network ?
also, does the phone work fine before turning off ?
did u upgrade the RSU or the ROM only and where/how did u do the upgrade ?

It's PD10A1 originaly on O2
The phone works fine while is on.
I upgraded via ActiveSync
First the ROM and than the RSU
Both upgrades successful
Did the same before the upgrade while using Developers special ROM.
I tried all diferent options in phone setup but no change.
Any Sugestions

this may or may not be help full but when I upgraded my radio stack on the o2 XDA 2 with the I-Mate Radio Stack, OS and Ex Rom it worked fine, however when I changed the Ex Rom with the O2 Ex Rom the phone stopped working.
The work around can be seen in this forum but I cant find it at the moment. Hope this helps?

downgrade the radio stack?

i have upgraded my radio stack to version to ver 6.24.00 but now my sim doesnt work anymore (no radio connection anymore ) so now i want to downgrade back to the old version. I upgraded because i wanted to unlock but now i cant even use my 02 prepaid ... i need help

i have a xda 1 from o2 germany locked with rom version 3.1.9.01,

You have used the wrong radio Stack. 6.xx are for PW10B-Models (US-Version) with 900/1900 MHz Network receipient.
You have to use a 4.xx ROM, i would say. Check the Rear sticker of your device.
What is shown in Start -> Settings -> System -> Device Information ?
You shoud be able to fix it by doing this:

If your device is already booting to the today screen you should dismiss steps 1 + 2....

thanx for caring... ive downgraded it back to radioversion 4.21.00, it took the hole night but it works again...but i still want to remove the f...ing simlock, but now i am a bit scared...
ok, here the requested data
rom 3.19.01 GER
rom date 05/27/03
Radio 4.21.00
Protocol version 32S54

i know i should be a new topic but i am trying to save server space...
ive got a gps device connected to my beloved XDA 1 (as mentioned above) and the instructions tells me to unlock (ge i hate this word!!!) the com port on my device, so heres my new question, can i unlock it and where can i do this, i havent found a menue to do this...can soneone send me a walkthrough?

For unlocking the device i would suggest to install XDA Developers ROM Version 1.2
For "unlocking" COM1 you have to disable infrared/beam in the settings....

ok Gps is working fine...
is it save to change the rom? what do i have to consider?

I have a similar problem. My XDA has a rom version that I couldnt find on the list. That is 4.01.16 ENG. Is that normal?
And also I tried to update radio verdion to 4.21.00 but after updating the programme B i couldnt load programme A. When I plug the sim card MY XDA locks and i have to reset it. So i cannot use it as a phone. What can I do?

GPRS does not reconnect

Hi there!
I have a problem with the GPRS internet connection on my brand new Magician:
The first time I connect it works flawlessly - but after the first disconnect the devices refuses to reconnect and tells me to check my settings.
After a soft-reset it works again.
Anybody with the same problem?
Thanx!

no one to help me??????????????

Here ya go....
1) Correct. You can't upgrade your 2i to WM5.
2) I would recommend downloading one of pug's ROMs. You can find them here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Alpine/O2_Roms_Camera_Fixed_Bug/
If you hate the o2 active stuff, then download the one marked "o2stripped" (I would recommend this one). If you like the o2 active stuff, then download the other.
3) The latest Radio ROM available for the 2i is version 1.04. If you upgrade your ROM using one of pug's rom, then your radio will automatically be updated to version 1.04.

BTW, I think your device is an Alpine, not an Andes.

Got a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with.
I was updating my rom and it all went wrong. When I turn my xda2i on now I get the normal setup then its goes to a black screen with serial written on it (or usb if it is in the cradle), and apart from that it does nothing.
My laptop no longer recorgnises the device so I can't restore the old rom or restart the process????
Can anyone help please?

tez,
You're in what is called "Bootloader". You're OK. You can do one of two things:
1) Simply re-attempt to "reflash your ROM" with one of the ROMs you downloaded.
2) Reflash your ROM with a ROM update provided your manufacturer. I couldn't get my device to update with one of pug's rom (it go stuck around 18%) so I had to reflash my Alpine with an original ROM released from a manufacturer.
Hope this helps.

Upgrading the rom of SPV m5000

Hey guys...
I recently got an Orange SPV m5000. Except for the way it looks, it's a great PDA considering i've been using my old Wallaby PW10A1 ...
But the problem is, it has some speed/memory issues! Whenever i open the Programs, or want to make a call, it seems to be stucked for a second or two. I've been wondering, if this is due to the ROM it has.
About the pda, when i got this, it had SIMLock and the default rom in it.
I've removed SIMLock; thanks to buzz, and upgraded the rom the the newest version from Orange website. But still, the problem is the same..
So, i was wondering, if i wanted this to upgrade to WM6, would it be slower?
If yes, would installing another WM5 ROM solve my problem?
If not, which ROM should i be using?
I'ld be pleased if someone spares time to explain me things. It's confusing, there're so many things that i get lost and forgot all i knew whilst checking the topics!
Currently the phone has:
Operator version: 7.130.1.174
ROM version: 1.30.90 WWE
ROM date: 02/24/06
Radio version: 0.00.00
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.30.174 WWE
(Notes: I live in Turkey, and my operator doesn't have video calling function running here, yet. So i can do without it too. I also did an extended rom unlocking and backed-up the orange installation files (1.85mb) from the storage just in case something bad happens and i have to install that again)

Update:
Since i was imnpatient; like anyone with a new device, I've currently installed L26_WM6_PRO_Business_V7_Videocall without problems. The radio version is updated at the process but there seems no problems with SIMLock, yay!
The OS seems better and faster for now, i'll update here just incase something goes wrong.

Update 2:
Unfortunately SmartDial is not implemented and the default phone skin (t-mobile) doesn't support landscape mode. It does support, but the dialpad is hidden by default, that confused my mind. But then again, smartdial still is absent from the dialpad section and the skin sucks and it's harder to call
It looks fantastic when compared to WM5, and some new settings along with auto-installed programs came. And i liked them!...
Now, looking for a proper smartdial...
