Hi all,
I'm using a Tmobile PocketPC Phone edition. I need to use it here in the Philippines for the next 3 months, it has been upgraded to WM2k3, ROM version is 4.01.00 ENG, Radio Stack is 6.24.01. I'm having a problem now as the phone signal is weak and the MMC I use suddenly gets formatted. Please help... Thanks in Advance.
format the card in windows, and label it a new name. Dont use any other non-factory themes or today screens. this should be the cure for the card erasures. the lost signal quality is probly due to the new RS
Forgive my ignorance, I have followed your advice but I just want to know the rationale for not using non-rom based themes.
Thanks.
Because it may be the cause of your memory card auto formatting problem.
I'm sorry I don't think I made myself clear... what is the explanation of putting non ROM based themes into the MMC that makes it auto format? Do the themes have codes in them that auto format an MMC? Thanks.
...
huhuhuhuuhu..please help, im not that rich to buy another XDA
.....
I already sucessfully change into new rom using SD bootload...STILL my XDA doesnt show any RSU version and hanging in loading OS

It is a sad fact that many gsm errors render the xda useless as a phone, it maybe that you have now only a pda.
it is truly sad.. i tried to test 1 board of xda to my xda yet its a failure . i need a board w/ a good condition. this is the only easiest solution to this problem, changing board. No one here i think can help to have a software recovery. how sad! :-(
hope WE CAN SOLVE this ISSUE ASAP... to help many XDA users with dead phone.
I fix all problems!
if you can try to help us
no one here can really solved this kind of problem i think thru software recovery..cgigate have a hardware solution but u need to send the unit to him. His in the other side of my world..tsk tsk tsk

I did pull it from the Artemis and I'm redoing it now. You're right it don't work but it doesn't brick. I looked at the size and the Hex Dump of both and they are similar. The Artemis ROM even had the G3 and G4 IPL and SPL when I decoded the ROM. I had so much hope but no go.
I was considering the Excalibur ROM as well but its bigger than the Prophet/Wizard radio ROMs. I'm more apt Prophet/Wizard Radios are usually around 2.5MB. The Excalibur ROM is 2.8MB. Not sure the the dedicated Radio space on the Prophet but the difference is just enough to brick.
I've already decoded it. If some one wants to try the Excalibur I'll post it.
i dun mind trying excalibur as well.. but redo the artemis 1st. i'll try again once u finish.. if u look at the post in artemis forum it says 2.67 got good battery life.. dat i want!! lol..
Confirming the radio rom does not work as well on my S200
I've created a G3 version for my S200 but it's not working, doesn't find the provider any longer, I'll play around some more, but a no go so far.

I'm the same place after re-extracting it from the Artemis ROM. I'm going to wrap the Excalibur ROM. It'll be posted soon. Anyone wanting to try it, Have fun.
i've changed the header info a bit, but that doesnt seem to help either
Let's try the next ROM

OK everyone, this one is built from the Excalibur ROM. For all the brave souls:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.63.9 0_Test.exe
I do see that the other ROM was removed so...
If you post a G3 radio rom, I can try it on my Qtek S200...

Radio rom upgrade problem!
I upgraded my s200 RadioROM to 2.63.90. Now my Phone lost Radio Rom and lost the GSM signal. The phone become very slow and con't activesync to the pc. I have try but can't upgrade any other rom now! Can someone help me?
I had the same problem! After radio update, Prophet does not connect to the PC anymore. I,ve managed the problem with the following steps, take them exactly:
1. Download the linked file and extract it in a known place: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Wizard/2_47_11_radio.rar
2. Disconnect Prophet from the USB cable;
3. Enter in the boot loader mode (press power button + camera button in the same time and hit reset);
4. Connect the cable and in the left down corner the USB name will apear;
5. Go to the directory that you extracted from the downloaded file and start ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe (is in itallian, but there are the usual steps for upgrading ROM, so I think you'll manage).
After this, hopefully the upgrade Radio ROM process will start!
I'll repet myself, follow exactly this steps with attached file, this was my way and the only that worked for me!
P.S. Someone should delete the 2.63.90 Radio ROM file from th Prophet FTP, is dangerous and brakes your Prophet!
Thanks very much! My Phone has come back!

Artemis New Radio 03.21.90
http://www.fs2you.com/en/files/660aee8c-2eff-11dd-99ec-0014221f4662/
I've just downloaded it.....
Will try in a few minuits....
Thanks
I was using 3.18.90, and will try this one and compare if U know that 3.18.90 was battery-friendly.
HI,
I wanted to test this GSM update, but wanted to know what are the exact steps involved in installing this. I am a newbie and don't have much knowledge of these things. I am currently using Artemis Touch 4.02Rom full with cube. Can you help ?
Pretty good on reception and better on battery too..
I have HTC Love and I flased this rom a day ago. Battery lasted more than a day with over 2 hours of talking and another 2 hours of music playback and solitire now and then... I am impressed. Would like to know about other's experience too...
Still need to test it for a couple of days before I can give my final comment on this Radio.
Thank you, brothers sharing the spirit,
Is RUU brush-pack?
Battery life is not good, and I am having "out of coverage" claims by my patients. So 3.18.90 is better.
My ROM is YuE 4.4.
not good
Battery is not good at all, it drains power with bluetooth in no time. I don't know without bluetooth head set, my previous one was much better.
I've installed it and will post my experiences soon.
I download and try. Thanks

I tried to flash the radio rom: 3.21.90, but it was stucked at 79% and the Rom Update Utility, gave me an error about: Image (.nbh) is corrupt.
I fixed this by using Pof's USPL Utility, which makes my phone SuperCID.
I just posted this info for you guys (newbie's in general) so that you dont scream and shout here at the forum that the radio rom update didn't work.
I will test the new radio rom (I upgraded from 3.06.90) in these days and post back my thoughts.

Topsecret: here such a newbie/noob glad to hear you were able to fix it, but how? I did try Pof's USPL, but still have a corrupt .nbh
Case solved, I was just too impatient, didn't wait for USPL to fully install.
I tried to install the radio rom instead of POF's nbh

Error on loading
I have tried 3.18.90 and 3.21.90 loads but consistently get the error:
Error[270] Update Error
"The image file is corrupted. Please check your update utility"
I am running WM6 from the HTC Asia site

I should add that I get that error when using the USPL utility as well.
What am I doing wrong?

That was my problem too. I just copied the .nbh into a folder with another rom from Meschle. That one worked for sure. Moved the .nbh from Meschles rom, ran step2.bat and the radio rom installed without any problems.
Orbit Xda O2 with radio 03.21.90
After the upgrade, for every phone call there is an annoying hum and the battery is consumed very quickly. For me, 03.18.90 is better.
Ive used every rom which has come out and Im normally a firm believer of the newer the better but I have finally gone back to 3.08.90 and feel it is the best.
Which rom is best depends on your usage.
I am a light phone user but I have push email on so GPRS is always on. Here in the UK on T-Mobile 3.21.90 ate up battery and I could barely make it through the weekend before the battery died. The signal was also poor in areas with bad coverage.
3.18.90 was a bit better for battery and coverage but battery still went down really fast.
Went back to 3.08.90 as Ive used this before and was alwasy happy and I firmly belive for my usage its the best. Crystal clear sound, battery lasts 3-4 days, almost double 3.21.90 and when I enter an area with poor coverage the conversation can continue and it picksup the signal a lot quicker.
For those who dont use GPRS and push mail you most likely last quite a while longer and just so happen to recharge in that time so dont notice the drain.

Friends,
My friend's (NEW) gene just keeps on searching network, but does not get it. Any idea to rectify ??? Thanks in advance. Using WM 6.5.
which ROM are you using? Have you tried restarting the phone, or switching to airplane mode and back by comm manager, or hard resetting your phone? Also check whether the connectivity of the operator is proper at the place where you are testing. If its only one or two signals, this could be missed by some phones while catched by others.
Hi Krazy
Thanx 4 concern Krazy. Details are :
Using WM6.5 21176
Flashed twice. Rest all OK. No signal bars. Keeps on searching on Auto Mode. Tried three different oprators' sims. Flight mode off. Manual network search yields no result. Any idea ???
have u tried a different ROM ??

@mehra : Try Sumit's(Aka Krazy) Pro User's ROM, new version V2 R3 for NEW GENE.
Another thing just remove the SD Card while flashing(if any). After flashing reset the ROM 1-2 times. May help.
will try

Dear Mehra,
Please note that changing ROMs will not solve your problem, as none of them conain radio. You will get radio only with the shipped ROMs or ask ramersonw for the radio, a bird told me he's got the latest radio for Gene .
