hi!
at the moment i have my third herald from o2 germany,also known as xda terra. all three have the same problem:
i use activesync and an exchange server to use push-email via gprs. but my herald decides to not let me communicate with the rest of the world. after the subway and switching the operator (o2/t-mobile d) (too) often it refuses to establish a gprs connection.
it tries, but fails... but best thing to come: it shows me full network coverage, but i can't call anybody, and anybody can call me. after a softrest, everything works again. gprs instantly, and even a normal phone call is possible.... (wohooo ) and that really annoys me, especially having a mobile phone, and nobody can call you even everything seems okay to you.
i already tried it with, and without installing the extended rom. - no change. first i thought it's probably some software i installed, but after the last hard reset i did not install anything. same problem. last idea of the o2 support was a new sim-card. but no change.
in my eyes it's a radio-rom problem, but o2 does not offer any updates, therefore there is no official way to test that. i would love to try out a custom rom and radio update, but because of warranty reasons i won't do that.
my radio-rom version is 02.85.90, does anybody know whether there are such problems with this version? OR, does anybody have any idea how to solve my problem? at the moment im really ******...
thanks in advance!
My Wallaby (T-Mobile, unbranded?) suddenly lost all my contacts, my installed software and everything. I then did a software reset, then a hardware reset.
Now it comes up with a Windows Mobile 2003 and the XDA-Developers wallpaper, and asks to run through the initial calibration etc.
Also it doesn't seem to accept my E-Plus Sim card. It doesn't search for my provider (Eplus).
Instead it suggests to run the T-Mobile autoconfiguration.
Could someone help me, please, to get it functioning again?
Thanks.
Christoph

I managed to skip the autoconfiguration and it recognizes my Simcard again and also finds the provider.
I have a backup and a synchronization on my notebook (via Activesync). But the ID of my MDA is currently Pocket_PC. To sync it should have the same ID as my AS host has, doesn't it? How do I achieve this?
And another thing is strange: Isn't there an area of local storage (besides the inserted SD) that carries locally installed programs and other information. It seems that I don't see this file area at all. Could it be corrupted and if, is the a way to recreate/recover it?
Solved! Thanks and excuse the bother. Everything is restored again thanks to the backup I had I was able to restore everything to a very recent state. Only my incoming call history is missing a month.
I have a Orange SPV M700 (HTC P3600), Since One year i didn't use the phone. Now i need to get some professional contact but i didn't remember the password i put in the phone. i there a possibility to reset the password without lose all my data ? can somebody could help, i need all my contacts thanks
Dear xda-users.
Sadly I have lost my HD2 after a having it for a week. I have tried to locate it via Microsoft My Phone but it failed me.
My network operator has blocked the sim-card and the phone's IMEI number.
Does anyone know if it is possible to track it down even when the phone has ran out of power and does?
Anybody know any company who is able to track devices?
I hope you can help me.
Regards
Razir.
Well if the SIM card is blocked, there is no way how the device would let you know. It could use wifi, but even if wifi was on, HD2 wont connect unknown networks until told so.

No power, no way.
if its out of power u wont track it... ull have to wait till someone finds it... recharges it and connects to network.. thats only way how to track it (it broadcasts its imei over network).. even if they hard reset it which would kill myphone tracking
dont know about any companies but in slovakia it is prohobited by law to track down cell phones... before ppl were able to do that by calling police but not anymore

If you asked the network to block the IMEI you're pretty much screwed. If it wasn't blocked, someone could take the phone, change SIM, and hopefully turn it on without hard resetting, which you'd be able to see on myphone. But as the IMEI is blocked, even if he did that, the network wouldn't let it connect, so it wouldn't be able to tell it's position.
Except if the guy connects to a wifi. But he'd certainly think about hard resetting before that.
Thank you guys. Your answers have been useful.
As it might be a little late for you now I ran across this program called Ultimate Theft Alert. If you would have had this application installed you might have been able to locate your phone. Or at least tell you who has it.

I'd like to blatantly push a free and VERY full featured program here called remote tracker. Lets you do all the phone tracking stuff, send it a text and it sends you back a link to google maps with lcation, location based on gps and/or cell towers, it can record a 5 minute gps track and send it to you, it has sim swap alert, wipe your simcard,wipe sd card, run scripts remotely, lock up your phone, throw up messages on screen, have the phone call you back, it is soft reset friendly (hard reset proof if you cook it in yourself),,,
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
oh, and no i'm not the author, and nor do i get a kickback
oh, and it can respond by text, email or ftp (or all the above)
edit - sorry to the OP :-(
Hi guys,
I also lost my HTC HD2 but didn't speak to my network yet, so do I have any chance to find it?? any idea how?
Thanks

Hey I am in a similar situation. Can youplease confirm. If I DO Unblock the IMEI from my carrier, will the myphone service be able to locate the HD2 even if it does now have a new SIM card in it?
I lost the phone O/S and would do anything to get it back - I have it registered to the microsoft myphone service. Now that I am back home, I got a new sim card with the same number. Will the myphone service search via IMEI or does it need my active sim card in it?
Thanks
Myphone ONLY uses the sync relationship with the phone. The position is updated when the phone is synced. So the position you see is the one of the last sync, and if the new "owner" is clever enough to hard reset your phone, you'll never get position updates again.
does anyone know how to recover (or reset) the pin/numeric password on the htc imagio w/o having to do a hard reset? i need all the contacts (weren't backed up) and microsoft said they'd do it for $59.99 and htc said that they just 'make the phones' and that its not their problem. really makes me want to get an android when my service agreement w/ verizon is over. the fact that MS would charge me for the service means that its possible to crack/hack but i don't have the IT knowledge to do so, so any help is greatly appreciated. thx
If you plug it into a computer you have been syncing with, it will copy over the contacts without having to know the pin. I think you can create a new partnership without the pin as well.
