Hello , I have an X1 with the stock R1 ROM and radio Radio 1.06.25.29 .
During calls and when my signal reception bars are 2 or 1, the other persons voice suffers from short interruptions. Is it the Roms fault which is old or it is my phones hardware?
Note that I have set my band to GSM and not to 3G!!
thanks!

i live in Greece and i recently bought a cingular 8525 through ebay. the device is in great condition but i have very poor gsm signal. i live in an area with great reception of my provider, my nokia used to have 3 to 4 bars with 4 bars as maximum, but the cingular had at most 2 bars... i tried several roms and several radios from 147 to 154.30.something but with no result. i tried auto band, manual band, everything but it still has no reception or very poor, as i said the most 2 bars. my provider is also 3g gsm 900/1800, the sim card is brand new.
if you need more info please tell me.
if you have any idea or plain advise i will be greatfull.
thank you.
Less number of reception bar on the today screen doesn't mean that you have poor reception. Are you getting call drop or slow data connection? That should be your concern. Becuase with 6.1 roms sometimes I see a cross on data connection even though actual data flow is normal. You can also try "FieldTest". And see what is reception strength. It can be downloaded from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=274269
I don't use rom 6.1. I use pandoranaked 3.60 and radio 1.48.10. I have no reception. I can't receive text messages nor calls. Is it possible the phone is bricked? How can I easily see for myself? Because I am rather confused from what I have read on the sites.
noone else another oppinion about my problem? any other advise? something to look for?
weird - I have a P3600 from The Netherland which I brought to Italy. The phone worked fine with a Vodafone SIM. Recently I changed to TIM. As long as I have a good network signal Edge and 3G work as they should. However, whenever the signal gets poor and the phone switches to GPRS, I do not have any data nor phone connection (although the phone shows a strong GSM signal). As soon as the phone goes on EDGE the phone works again.
I already tried several Radio Roms. It looks like V. 1.56.70.11 is slightly improving the situation but in most cases I still cannot make calls and cannot be called.
Is this a SIM problem? Is there anybody in Italy who could tell me which ROM Versions TIM is using in their branded P3600?
Device info:
ROM version: 1.23.405.2
ExtROM: 1.23.405.103
Protocol: 32.83.7020.20H
Radio: 1.56.70.11
Any advice is welcome....
...likely it is only related to the poor TIM network coverage at my home. Strange is that my wife (she is using the same SIM from TIM) can make phone calls with her Nokia. It seems that the Trinity with the new radio rom is very sensitive to receive network signals but apparently the transmitting power is too low to connect (Trinity cares for your health http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif) ....is there a way to boost the transmitting power or is it only controlled by the radio rom?
signal:
GSM: full strength can not call anybody, can not receive calls
UMTS: weak signal, can call sometimes
ROM and RADIO both are stock
HTC HD O2 branding but no problems detecting sim (so it is not sim locked, i think?)
any solutions?
I´m in the same situation. I already tried all the different Radios and with different ROMs, and I´m in Portugal.
Is Android any better than windows as far as signal reception? coz mine is really bad only get a low G signal most of the time. I have standard settings as shown and with virgin ,live in west sussex
Since the actual gsm phone hardware (radio) is seperate from the hd2 hardware and it is controlled by the radio rom, Android won't probably have any difference. Only signal bar "reporting" or 3g - 2g switch threshold "may" change and that is software.
Note: radio does not mean fm radio.
I get better call quality and reception in windows...
Hi i bought S4 9506 and from the first time, during phone calls i hear a buzz in earpiece if i have selected GSM (only 2G). I had s4 mini for 1 year now and i didn't have such a problem, does anyone else notice it in GSM only?
