I was wondering if anyone else was running into something like this.
I have a T-Mo band N1 with AT&T service so I max out at EDGE, but something strange happens when I'm calling people from my house. Sometimes the other person will just stop hearing me but I can still hear them, it seems to fix itself after a random amount of time but sometimes it doesn't. But before the two way connection is reestablished one party has usually ended the call.
The strange part is when the call is ended I see that my connection has switched over to GPRS and after a few seconds it will switch back to EDGE. I assume that the switch from EDGE to GPRS during the call and that's when the other person can no longer hear me. When I start the call I have 3 or 4 bars on EDGE so I don't know why my N1 would switch to GPRS during the call.
This doesn't happen when I'm outside, but this happens when I'm not wandering around my house so the signal should be pretty stable. It has happened whether I'm holding my phone in my hand or it's sitting on my table with the speaker activated. There have also been times when I've spent an hour or two on the phone at home without this happening at all.
Anyone else having this problem or have any idea what may be causing this?
actually i notice my data connections disconnect like if i am downloading or uploading or connecting to something and i switch between H-3G-E i lose the connections. i didnt put much thought into it but i guess its -1 for me.

There are a couple of things that, if i could, id like to change on my X1.
I was just on a call, and whilst on the call, we was discussing something and decided we'd look it up online. I tried, but it said cannot connect whilst on a call, i then noticed GPRS was active and not HSDPA. Im wondering if this is a GPRS only issue, whether it is phone specific, and if its a GPRS only issue, whether there is a trigger on the phone that automatically sets to GPRS instead of HSDPA when your on a call. I dont know much about the two, but i know the SEX1 can handle multiple connections (i.e. wifi, activesync, HSDPA).
The other thing, its something thats bugged me for a while, and im not sure if it can be resolved, but if it can, your the guys who'd know, though i can deal with it if i need to... That is that when I am on a call, and i receive an email or low battery, i get this little noise, that sounds like it is only supposed to sound once, but it sounds 3 times, overlapping. If possible, i only want it to sound once, i mean, i heard it the first time.
I've flashed my phone with the latest firmware from the HTC site. It's connected to 02 but i'm having major problems with data connections and actually just getting the phone to answer calls.
If I ring the phone, the majority of the time it just goes straight to voicemail but sometimes the phone will ring, it seems to be very random. Data connection is iffy as well where sometimes i'm able to browse sites and other times it just errors.
Has anyone experienced this? Is it a phone configuration problem or is my handset faulty? It does get very warm at the bottom of it when the screen is on. Is that normal?
cheers

I think I have similar problems.
I've noticed a slight increase in calls redirected to voicemail.
Also, my HD keeps dropping data connections. Sometimes I can just reconnect using the settings tab, but sometimes a soft reset is neccessary.
Very irritating, and I was really hoping for a quick fix.
Lately i have a dropping call issue. When i am in a phone conversation sometimes the call is getting dropped. Before it is dropped i hear beep.beep.beep. but don't see any message on my screen ?
Does the beep code mean that the network doesn't have enough capacity?
I'm on Energy rom + tested radio 2.12.50 and 2.10.50 (didn't had any problems before)
Three beeps usually mean a network related issue, maybe it couldn't hand over between cellsites or your network coverage dropped enough to drop the call.
I'm just at home when the issue occures, so there is no need for migrating to another cellsite. But it's a well crowded area i live in, so that could be a problem i guess.
I've read a few similar threads and it seems that many people have noticed the same but haven't seen any real solution.
I noticed that when I try to call my phone, the 1st attempt will be missed (it will either redirect to voicebox due to unavailability or it will ring as disconnected and never get notified). The 2nd attempt will ring ok.
I haven't seen anything helpful except from turning 3g off but I have it on auto and use the mobile widget which I assume does the same.
Anyone noticed the same? it's worth to try it though because you may have the same and be unaware of it. (Try to ring your phone when its in standby and hasn't been used for several minutes)
I bought the DHD yesterday, in the few hours i used it i didn't notice the issue you describe. Just to be sure i called my phone a minute ago and i had no problem.
I have 3G turned off and i'm not using voicebox (using missed call alert instead).
i have a feeling its because if you turn the phone over it rejects the call. i keep doing this because my phone is in a slip case all the time. anyone know how to turn it off?

No, it doesn't . It just mutes the sound but if it's already turned over when it receives a call, it will ring. You can change this behaviour in settings-call as well as volume control for flip case.
I tried several more times and it doesn't happen now. It just happened a few times when I tried to test. The only setting I changed now was for GSM-3G not to force 3G connection on for all the time. Maybe that helped but now I'll have to see how my data connection is affected.

Yesterday whilst in town, a friend said he had tried to get me several times, only to get a network message that the phone was unavailable. seems fine each time i test it though, and there is a strong 3g signal around here. I put it down to everyone in town christmas shopping and net network cell being clogged up with people calling each other to find out where there other half is lol.
What network are you on? I'm on Orange, and get this all the time. It seems to be when I'm in an area where there's only gprs which cannot work with voice calls simultaneously. For some reason the data signal is given priority and the voice call is rejected. Surely it should be the other way round? Not sure if this is a network problem or a software problem... if the latter, is it HTC or Android?

I replaced my screen myself from buying a replacement screen and watching a few youtube tutorials. After I got the back off, it was actually quite easy.
But since I put everything together, I've had really terrible reception. I get 4G but the signal is low, but I can't seem to make a call. It says "mobile network is unavailable" sometimes or sometimes it just doesn't connect when I try to make a call. I can't receive calls either.
I assume something happened to the antenna when I replaced it? Anybody have any ideas? Everything appears to be fine, but I'm not sure where the antenna even is.
