No incoming phone call, while using EDGE/GPRS streaming?

I have MDA tmo (US). My radio ROM is 1.13.10.
While i am using streaming audio (http://di.fm), i cannot receive any phone calls and will not receive "missed call" notification either.
Is this "by design" or radio Rom issue? does anyone have the same issue with different ROM???

this issue is quite wide spreaded on polish pdaclub.pl forum, however in my case it works flawlessly. i've started downloading abt. 500 KB file via GPRS straight from Wizard and then called from another mobile. i could pick up this connection and after that PIE just asked me if i'd like to resume file downloading.
maybe this 'bug' depends on network, not neccessary on hardware...?

thx... you do have a newer radio rom. It'll be interesting to know how other ROM may work...

I think this is network issues and not phone. It depends on your carrier.

It is not a operator/network issue*. The same part of the network does not know simultanously that the GPRS is actually downloading at that instant AND also terminating a call. The two things are asynchronous contexts.
It's the handset radio/OS that handles the switch and pausing (if it's a class B device) of GPRS when a call comes in. This sounds like something that will be fixed/made less flakey in newer revisions.
(*although that's not to say that the behaviour will not be slightly different on various networks)

well, i was under that impression because every phone ive had from nokia to motorola to htc has this problem.cant receive a call while data is being downloaded.

Samehere with Qtek 2.18 NL ROM on Dutch T-Mobile network: when i start downloading and i receive a incoming call, i can just answer the phone and the download is interrupted. When i end the call, i can select to continue download.

Sorry to bring back an old issue, but I think this is a ROM issue, I think on the custom 2.17 ROM it worked fine but I dont remmber for sure. THis is a big issue.

tokuro, you mentioned that you listen to streaming radio using GPRS/EDGE. Are you doing this without the audio skipping/rebuffering every 4 minutes or so? If so, how? What program/settings are you using?

Take a look at this , made a lot of research about the issue

Call from TyTn being recieved as fax

Hi there
Just started messing with my Rogers Tytn and I've run into a big problem. At work we have a 'smart box' that is supposed to recognize if a fax or phone is calling (the same number for both). When I call the office from the Tytn the 'smart box' decides that the call is coming from a fax and switches on the fax machine and tries to connect.
Is there a way around this?

The way these "smart boxes" work is that they detect the periodic tone that fax machines transmit at the beginning of the call to disable downstream echo cancellors (if you are sending a fax you can sometimes here a beep every second or two before the receiving fax answers). I suppose it is possible that the TyTN is transmitting a similar tone during call initiation, but I have never heard of such a thing. What radio version are you running?
Can the "smart box" be configured for exceptions based on Caller ID?
John

Hi there
Radio version is 1.42.00.00
Can't program the smart box. It isn't that smart.
Still in buyers remorse period. If I the one place I can't call is the office than the phone is useless to me. And I really like it too. Dang!

Um, pardon me if I missed something, but I haven't heard of that particular Radio Version. Is this new? I tried searching the entire Hermes main forum, and I get no hits (surprisingly, not even THIS message/thread).
Can you show us where you sourced this radio from?

Not sure this helps you. It's a 4 day old Rogers wireless TyTn.
ROM 1.34.631.14
ROM date 04.17.07
Radio version 1.42.00.00
Protocol version 32.75.7020.18H

Hmmm ... I'm sure there are others here on these forums who would love to get their hands on that radio. I do not remember seeing any reference to it before. Of course, if it's causing your problem, then maybe we're all better sticking with what we've got.
Unless somebody more knowledgable than I (most of the folks here are, btw) can recommend anything better, I would think that MIGHT be where the problem is originating. Maybe you could flash a different radio to see if that changes anything for you. FWIW, the radio in my signature has been the best one I ever found for my locale and carrier.
Good luck!

New Radio ROM
I thought I seen someone mention this on another forum and a couple of us were asking around. Is it possible for somebody with the new TYTN to dump there ROM so that the rest of the community can get there hands on the new Radio ROM.

i think you should check with your service provider, it might be a wrong definition on your line

yes rogers has radio 1.42.00.00 we just need to find a way to get it......

I agree, I have checked with HTC and Rogers, niether are releasing the current ROM, they are offering no downloads at present, hopefully somebody can get there hands on the Rogers phone and dump the ROM. Wait and See

Call from TyTn being received as fax
kruwreka, just for giggles, try calling your work number with the phone on speakerphone an see what happens.
Perhaps the mis-detection has something to do with the audio quality. There may be a hiss, hum or some other audio artifact that causes the box to confuse the call. Switching to speakerphone will let a lot more audio from your side of the phone go through possibly overriding any network introduced noise.
My first thought would be that any unusual noise on the line would be introduced by the switching network you are passing through, not from the phone itself. You can test that by calling someone else and seeing if the signal sounds clear. If the phone were introducing noise then it should be apparent to others you talk with on the phone. If the noise is introduced by the switching network then you may not be able to tell except by having someone answer the incoming call before the box can switch it to the fax or by disconnecting the box for a test.

thank you folks for all your responces...the problem seems to have resolved itself once I deleted the fax number from the contact information leaving only one instant of the number and rebooted

[Q]VoIP Help!

Hello!
I installed destr0_VOIP_WM61___SIP_Config_1.1.CAB as it was the only one that allows me to have GPS and voip working at the same time.
How ever, the problem is whenever i recieve a call to my voip i cannot answer or ignore. Infact i cannot do anything. The pda does not freeze but the anser and ignore window stays ontop and i cant do anything. What ever i hit, its as if i never hit it. Even when im using the answer button on my bluetooth headset. I have tried with and without and its same problem. Also when someone calls me it would say number unavailable but on my pda it says Available, i have tried switching between selected and available, its the same. Theres some other serious problems.
Could anyone help me? Much appreaciated!
I've tried various radios and its same problem with all. Im using SwiftBL's rom 7.0 Full

Hi, thanks for response

question...do you have the problem that the x1's bluetooth is turning off randomly?

yes I have had the bluetooth problem and also my email signature keeps going back to the default one which is annoying.

Same problem
I have exactly the same problem. The bluetooth connection gets lost. And sometimes my phone has according to the HCB-700 an empty callers list.

This problem seems to have gone away since the rom update that is floating around as I had it until I put on Jack's 2.4 rom easily available on this forum.

problem with HCB 700 and X1
I have same problem of bluetooth turning off randomly and disconnecting from the HCB 700. This is so annoying.. what should I install? Please advise.

Could you please tell me how to do it and which one to use and where can i find it? Do i need to backup all the data on the device?

Switch to the rom development forum and choose a rom. Follow the instructions to install for one of the unofficial (but better) roms.
In certain countries you can get official updates from SE too.
Yes you will need to backup your data unless you keep it on a storage card as I do.

614c 3G voice and data at the same time

Hello everyone,
Further to my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455840, I am using a now slightly old version of Yevgeny's WM6.1 ROMs on my 614c.
One of the few problems with this ROM, which is otherwise great, is that it does not allow concurrent voice and data usage on 3G. The original HP WM6.0 ROMs do allow this and it was a big plus to be able to stay online when the phone rings.
With Yevgeny's ROM v1.6 (and actually I think his newest one is v1.4 rev 1.2, don't ask me about the numbering), the data connection is dropped as soon as the voice connection is made.
I was in Moscow last year a few times and there was no 3G network (just EDGE), so I guess maybe Yevgeny has not himself noticed this problem.
Is anyone using a WM6.1 ROM that DOES allow you to keep your 3G data connection open when making or receiving a voice call?

I use last ROM from Yevg001 WM6.1 20270 rev 1.2 FIX with Manila 2D and data connection is always on (i use push to mail service). I have no probrem with dropping connection during calls.

sergiorus, this is good news. Are you certain that the data connection is remaining open? For example, do new mails arrive while you are on the phone, or you can navigate to non-cached pages in your web browser during calls?
For me, with the older ROM, the data connection is suspended as soon as a call is initiated or received.

I have just called from my home number to mobile and during this call downloaded ephemerides for GPS and updated Manila weather. All correct.

Sergorius thank you very much for testing this... it sounds like a good result. May I also ask you two other questions?
1) Are you using radio firmware 0.77 or 0.88 (notice on the blue start-up screen)?
2) Do you have the "call waiting problem", which was introduced in 0.88?
To test for the call waiting problem, without the help of another person, call yourself using your ipaq and begin to leave yourself a voice message (I usually count numbers). While you are talking to your voicemail, create a waiting call, by calling your ipaq from your home number. Continue to talk to your voicemail for a few seconds while you hear the beeps in your ear, then clear down on your home line.
When you listen to the voicemail that you left yourself, you will hear your voice at first, then notice that your voice was muted while the incoming call was waiting. This is the call waiting problem.
To work around this problem, which for me made my ipaq unusable, I downgraded my radio firmware to 0.77.
I'd be very interested in your results...

1) I use radio firmware 0.88
2) Omg, just tested, I have this problem too.
I tell about this problem to Yevg001, maybe he know how to fix it.

I work in a company wich has about 90 of this phones and , yes, all have the same problem. (call waiting)
We have FW 0.88.
Please if you find a solution, could you post it?
Thanks in advance
Dan
