Hello!
Now, the x2 arrived in Germany and i love this phone, but i have a question and I hope, anyone can help me. The Problem is, when the phone start up its prompt a message that "I use roaming and data connection will produce higher cost", but I use a german operator in germany. Why my phone says I use roaming? I'm very thankfull for every solution.
With best regards

Hopefully someone is on here from the Leeds/Bradford area who is on the T-Mobile network. My MDA Pro had been working perfectly for the last few months and over the last week despite hard resetting and soft resets all I get is an error trying to connect wirelessly.
I get the large U symbol for UMTS but keep getting a connection error :twisted: . Went through connection settings with T-Mobile but still no joy.
Anyone else suffering or any other ideas?
All help appreciated. J
I had the same problem on Orange and when I called to question it they told me that their 3G service was "degreaded" in the area I was in.
Can't you call T-Mobile and ask them?
Thanks to the post above. I did report to T-mobile and ask about their network and the polite customer service agent said he was not aware of any service problems.
even more curious is on the coolsmartphone forum an spv m5000 user is reporting exactly the same issue.
Would anyone else with the same issue please report.
thanks j
Settings/phone/band/network type set to GSM in stead of auto, should give you only GPRS I think.
Leaves you without UMTS but helps staying connected?

Hi! The tool lokiwiz 0.2b works fine. I can use the MDA for with my provider in Austria but always when i turn on my phone (book in to the service net) i get a service messege(sms called NETWORKMESSAGE or in german Netzwerknachricht) form my provider with something like <O> when iam in the Austrian State Oberösterreich. <W> when iam in the state Wien. ANd <N> when iam in Niederösterreich. So i am sure that this is a information message where iam.
Knows anybody how i can stop this kind of messages.???
Thanks
I have the same thing too. But it seems to be happening when I've not use my phone for a long period of time (e.g. doesn't give me the message everytime I switch on the phone) It seems to be some messages from the network. I have it from my UK O2 network as well, it gives me a bunch of number which seems like telephone area code.
BTW, I think you might want to change the title for this. I don't think it has anything to do with the unlocking. BTW, i unlock my phone with loki too.
Hi Friends,
regards to all and happy new jear.
Somebody of yours know the email address of softbank assistance?
I have a crazy problem with the pda SB X01HT
The device find and connect it by wifi to the router network, but ... in the connections panel there is not any possibility to use the wireless network.
I think that I lost or cancel the driver that manage the connection or that in the register there is a wrong instruction.
My big problem is that I bought the pda in thailand 1 month ago , in the box was only instructions and sw in jap language that I don't know, I was happy of my purchase, some days after I was in Vietnam, by wifi and skype I was online with my family easily 1 hour each day.
Now if I don't find the solution I have to wait my next trip to thailand in march to solve with tech service my problem.
I hope to find by any, the email address of softbank to ask them how solve my problem now
Or may be that somebody have the original SB register list that I can use to check if all it is right?
thanks for reply

before you contact softbank, you should understand softbank does not export x01ht, does not sell unlocked phones or does not sell x01ht with english windows mobile 5.0. they only sell x01ht with a mobile phone contract.
if your device is unlocked or has english windows mobile 5.0 or you do not have a contract with softbank, it was sold either as an invalid second hand or as a result of fraud.
if you told softbank that you got your device in thailand, it was unlocked or had english windows, i am 100% positive they would not help you. also, softbank warranty is good only in japan. *hint hint*
you should talk with the person from who you bought your device...
hard reset first to check if it's really broken.
by the way, it's hard to understand what is really a problem with your wifi setting... wifi connection is not in connections but in WiFi (Wiress LAN?) in my control panel...
Hi qtotter,
the problem is like if my SB lost one part of sw instructions or the dedicate sw that advise the main sw the presence of wireless network.
Crazy is that I had make the hard reset because the browser ie was work just with umts/gprs when skype was working perfectly by using of wifi - after the hard reset even skype stop to work.
may be that you can help me? to send me the register list to check?
If it is like you show me, I am not really unfortunate in my next trip to thailand surely I want money back or changes to another device ...

hi b eagle,
i did not mean hardreset by pushing the reset button. please read here;
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_For_Beginners#hardreset
(remember you will loose all data by hardreset!!)
i wanna help you, but i don't understand what you are really looking for... what do you mean by "the register list to check"? registry? if so, which key of the registry do you need?
WIFI connected but ...
Hi qtotter,
with the link that you sent me I find the reply to some questions:
My ppc is branded SB but inside there is the tytn english sw, the extended ROM contain the: HTC TyTN 1.18.255.106 ExtROM WWE
I had hard reset but nothing change!
The NETWORK MANAGER show me that the tytn is CONNECT to wifi but in the CONNECTIONS always appear no any presence of WIRELESS SERVICES that I can use to browse my server , internet and/or skype
Really I don't unterstand what's happen!
with this now what you think about?
may be that there are corrupted files that avoid to install few commands?
Regards Freddie
PS: which are the other part of sw that are install from the device supplier but that are not include inside the rom place?
I wonder if anyone can help with a fault on my M3100. So far I've searched this website for answers with no luck. I have Hard Reset the phone, upgraded the Radio, all without any luck.
About 6 days ago my M3100 suddenly stopped being able to make or receive calls. Whenever I try to dial out the call drops out before being established, and if I try to call in to the phone the caller receives a series of beeps.
At first it seems to be a SIM problem, but the Vodaphone SIM is fine in any other phone. If I put my Orange SIM in the phone it just comes up as "No Service".
I'm at the end of the line in what to do and it doesn't seems to make any sense.
Any comments, suggestions, advice or help very much appreciated.
..... Further symptom details:
I can send and receive text message with my Vodaphone SIM installed and access WiFi and GPRS networks. Orange SIM won't connect at all! Both SIMS work fine in a standard phone ! Only clue I can think of here is that the Vodaphone SIM is UMPTS and GSM where the Orange is GSM only. The spare phone I tested them in was GSM only.
Could the GSM part of the M3100 be stuffed ?
I'm stumped for the time being!! It doesn't seem to make any logical sense. Maybe any of you who know the in's and out's of how the device communicates might find some clues in that...
Heeeeelp !
More details..
I've just added a few more details on the symtoms.. maybe the few extra clues might yeild some thoughts from someone !
Have you checked the band selection in Settings > Phone?
Is it possible that the phone could have become blacklisted? How long have you had it? How did you buy it? (This is probably NOT it, since the text still works.)
Have you tried a tweaker to enable HSPDA?
Had the phone for over 12 months so Blacklisted shouldn't be the issue. I've tried all the band selections including Auto but no luck.
Haven't tried the Tweaker... do you have any details on that...
Up until it suddenly stopped working it worked on all networks..
Another possible clue is that I was "Roaming" in France for a month and it was there that I made my last successful call. I have UK SIMS... I have an Australian SIM which I'll try now to see if that makes any difference..
Tried an Australian SIM roaming in the UK ! The service connects on two available networks,Vodaphone and TMobile but not on Orange and O2 (like with the Orange UK SIM). Same fault as the before with the networks it will connect to.
This seems to eliminate the SIM or Network being the fault and isolate the fault to the Device...
probably not the issues, but worth a try?
I live in a very strong 3G + HSPDA ares, but cant make or recieve anycalls tho texts work on T-mobile, i need to have my phone in 2G mode, and calls work fine???
If i leave my house and go a few miles 3G works as it should able to call and recieve etc!
Can't seem to work out how to force the phone onto 2G or 3G ... if anyone can advise I'll give that a try!
I have had very similar problems to this.
Please see my post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325149
I do think this is some sort of network problem as after I posted the issues in the thread above, I left home and travelled about 6 miles and the signal came back and the phone worked fine.
Today, I have been able to make and receice calls but all of a sudden I got cut off from a call then could not make or receive calls (incoming goes straight to voicemail).
I can however use my Orange SIM without problem and both Vodafone and Orange SIMs work fine in other phones.

You can also go into Settings > Phone > Band.
If the band tab does not appear (to the right of the network tab), then you may need to do a registry tweak.
From the very helpful wiki:
Enable/Disable GSM/UMTS Band Selection
Cingular kindly disables anything useful about the network on the 8525. To enable the Band Selection Tab on your Phone settings page, set the following:
[\HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\]
"ShowUMTSBandPage"=dword:00000001
To disable, simply clear the value to 0:
[\HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\]
"ShowUMTSBandPage"=dword:00000000

Have travelled outside England again this week and... well the phone works fine roaming on my UK Vodaphone SIM. Seems very ODD.. only thing I can put any logic to is a problem with the GSM part of the phone. It's working here in Stockholm on the 3G network no problem.
Anyone advise how I force the phone to be on GSM and 3G so I can test this theory. The BAND settings under SETTINGS>PHONE don't seem to give you this control over how it connects..
Hey i got the same problem anyone solved it yet!
Hi Sunnyb1
Since my last post I returned to England where the phone was useless. No SIM cards would work, some would not register at all but my Vodaphone SIM seemed to register but as before it would not receive calls, nor could I make calls out.
Now I'm in Australia with an Australian SIM card. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL !!
The phone works just fine !!
It's a mystery indeed...
Without any knowledge of the ins & Outs of how a SIM card / Network / and the phone work together it's impossible for me to arrive at any conclusive logic.
Hopefully someone might stand up to the plate and offer some explanation !
Anyone from HTC out there ??????

I got the phone and it was working perfectly on Orange then i tried unlocking it and ever since it has come up with "NO Service" like you everytime i put a Orange Sim in the phone it does not show up.. but when i put a Vodafone sim it works perfectly i tried reflashing the radio's many times
I unlocked this particular phone 6months before this problem showed up so I don't think the Unlock on it's own is the cause. What's particularly baffling is that a SIM may not work with the phone in one country.. but in another it works fine.
..... another country that is !
Hey Steve i have found out what the problem is after hours of research
I found this of another website
Orange & O2:
If you place an active orange or
O2 sim into a blacklisted handset you
phone will not show any signal strength
at all! If the handset is a Nokia then a
"SIM card registration failed" message
will also be displayed. If your handset is an
Ericsson then an "Invalid Mobile" message
will be displayed. For most other manufacturers
the handset will simply show no signal!
Vodafone & T-Mobile
If you place an active Vodafone or T-Mobile sim into a blacklisted handset, the phone will appear to function perfectly UNTIL you try to make an outgoing call. When you try to call out from the handset you will hear a sequence of beeps and then the call will be dropped!!
........
This means the handset you got is stolen or someone has blacklisted it ... i got mine of EBAY! and reading that i figured that it is stolen
It wont work in the UK but it will work everywhere else in the world
Mmmm... that's interesting Sunnyb1. If my phone is blacklisted then happened in JULY this year which was 8 months after I bought the phone. I bought the phone legit .
Can anyone advise what the "Blacklisting" process is.. I assume its done by using the IMEI number.
Who is the rightful owner of a handset and can any phone be blacklisted by anyone, and possibly by mistake ?
Would unlocking the phone from Orange cause a phone to be blacklisted ??
How can you "Un-blacklist" a phone.
Answered my own question here......
This website seems to have the answers
http://www.unlockme.co.uk/blacklist.html
OK... still on this thread. Can anyone advise how you find out which network in the UK has blocked your an IMEI number. I gather any of the UK networks can block any IMEI and it's not unknown for errors to be made. But only the network that blocks the IMEI can Unblock it.
Thought I'd post this before waiting forever for some call centre dimwit to give me the runaround.
Thanks...
I am using Sony Xepira ( Middle -East) black & while sending text msg, receipient get same 2-4msgs....which cause problems? & my bills gets charged unfortunately.. Can someone help me with the urgent solution?
it's possible to be from your network , so it gives "unsent" status to your phone , and the phone tryes to send it again , and again until it receives "sent" from your network.
This might be a solution , i am not shure of it.
Dear it's nothing related to my network, beacuse when I remove the SIM from my X1 & insert it in another mobile and it works perfect ..
I went to my network provider & we made the testing , it's from the X1 mobile..it might be software problem ...not only my mobile but few friends of mine are facing the same issue...
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Regards,
I too have similar issues only using my X1 and would be keen to understand this as my provider is also saying they cannot see a problem in the network and it only happens with the X1.
Thanks
Ant
It's not a network provider problem, it's something related to the X1
You could either try a hard reset, perhaps you installed something wrong.
If that doesn't work, you could go a step further and flash it - but I'm not sure if that is what you want to do
The final option is always returning it to the factory, asking a new one.
some of my old phones done this when i went holiday to cyprus.
never knew a solution
Dear all,
Can anyone find solution for this problem?
Regards
