The Phone Call Dilemma

[REWORDED]
My Phone:
...Make: Dream
...SIM Card: Unlocked
...ROM: CyanogenMod Latest (as of Jan 04, 2010)
...Other Applications Installed: PhoneFusion
...Service Provider: T-Mobile
When Issue Started: 1 week prior
User's Phone:
...Make: Samsung (unknown model)
...SIM Card: Locked
...Service Provider: AT&T
-----
Issue: User cannot call me. It rings once and then disconnects. User can call any other T-Mobile phone in my area. I have no other issues calling or receiving
-----
Troubleshooting steps that have been performed:
...Turn off both phones for 2 hours - fail
...Take out SIM card and put back in - fail
...Kill any call forwarding on phones - fail
...User goes to AT&T store and receives new SIM card and phone - fail
...Checked for possible billing issues or blocked (banned) numbers - fail
...Wiped back to factory defaults (with the original ROM included that had the telnet vuln) and followed the steps to upgrade back to the latest version of CyanogenMod rom - fail
* Fail means it did not successfully resolve the issue of me not being able to receive the user's call
Anymore troubleshooting suggestions?

Maybe the att user cant call tmobile users or their phone is messed up?

Topic is fine and is defiantly not filled with any misconceptions:
dilemma - is a problem offering at least two solutions or possibilities, of which none are practically acceptable.
I would try another rom. As recently as yesterday my friend had a problem with his hero (CDMA) where he was unable to sent a text message to his girl friend. I fixed it by rooting and installing a custom rom.
First, I would unroot and get the tmo OTA update and see if it works (you could also try the custom stock rom with root here if you don't want to.
Second, try a different rom and make sure you don't install any applications.
Third, what SPL do you have, and radio for that matter.
Upgrade to the 26I radio in my sig to make sure it isn't something that easy. Remember, if you flash the nbh file it will downgrade your radio as well.
If all else fails, I would try the 1.33.2005 SPL, be sure you meet the requirements both board type and radio before flashing.

Hey Evilkorn,
Thanks for responding. Ace had posted that comment before I reworded the post. I will admit it was kind of confusion.
I am actually not sure of what I have other than CyanogenMod 4.2.12. Is there someplace I can go to find which version I have. If it would be easier to start from the beginning, as far as rooting and then updating everything from the factory defaults, I wouldn't mind. Time to me is not as important as getting the issue resolved.
I just saw on the homepage of Cyanogenmod.com that they released 4.2.13. Wonder if that would fix my issue. CM Updater isn't finding the ROM update yet so perhaps I should manually download and flash.

only thing I could suggest tell your friend to block the call (*67) and make sure that the caller isnt blacklisted, open the contact and select edit, make sure they arent checked to send call to voicemail

I went through the same thing a month ago, after it was all said and done...By mistake, I blacklisted the friend(which it turns out, can be easy to do if you have "fat fingers" when answering a call lol)

AT&T had thought the same thing. Actually, I just upgraded to 4.2.13 and it fixed my issue. There is a good chance that if I wiped ALT+W and then re-applied the previous .12 CyanogenMOD ROM that that could fixed my issue.
I never really though it was the ROM since I could get a hold of everyone else. How odd.
Thanks for all your help!

I messed up while rooting (not bricked).

Hey guys,
I have a 32B my touch 3g and I was following http://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-mytouch-3g/ this guide to root. I flashed the sappimg.npg to go from 1.6 -> 1.5. The problem is, I can't seem to activate the phone! When I turn on the phone after the flash, I get to the http://techblog.aasisvinayak.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/device22.png Touch android to activate screen. The sim that I'm using does have a data plan. I used the sim in my roomates phone and he is able to get on the internet.
When I type in my google info, it tries to connect to the server, but fails and I get this error:
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be proivisioned for data services. If it continues, callCustomer Care."

Just skip that step and activate your wifi. After you activate wifi then connect to a wifi network and sign in with your gmail account. I've encountered this problem when I've flashed a new rom. I guess when you flash a new rom you disconnect from the network so you don't have data for a bit. Don't worry your phone will automatically connect and keep a stable connection eventually. Just be patient.

I can't connect to wifi, I'm still using the stock ROM.

What? You can't connect to wifi using the stock rom?

Unfortunately not =/

That doesn't make sense. You should be able to use wifi even with the stock rom. I'm not sure why you can't sign into wifi with the stock rom. Just try signing in a couple times and eventually it'll ask you if you want to sign in later. Then just click yes. After that connect to a wifi network and sign in from there.

The only way to register your handset is through cellular data I don't think there's away around that if your root process was successful I'd suggest trying a different rom or wiping and trying again or let your phone set for awhile maybe its having trouble registering with the network this does happen so be patient

I was in the process of rooting, but didn't get very far. I downgraded from 1.6 to 1.5, and thats when the data stopped working.
It seemed to registered, but no data is being downloaded =/

Sounds like a step was missed somewhere I would try wiping and starting from scratch and make sure your magic is a 32b an not a 32a also when yöu install your rom make sure its something stable for your version of magic

I'm using the right steps for the right version of the phone. I haven't flashed any cooked roms yet, just the standard ol' stock one.

[Q] Hd2 win7 3g not working AND CANT SEND PIC IN TEXT MESSAGE

I recently installed win 7 on hd2 and activated, everything was working including market but now i dont have 3g service only wifi
i tried setting the apn according to tmobile u.s. Settings and did not work .i tried using the app for the market connection set up and ran the app it said that the device has been set up .but no 3g either..PLUS I CANT SEND PICS IN MY TEXT MESSAGES .any ideas

do what you have already tried but set it for a different network, restart, then change it back to your actual network, also try reseating your SIM card.
Worked for me, hope it works for you too!

what type of apn setting do you recommend

initially change it to anything other than your network
so, if i was on orange, i would change to O2, restart, then change it back to orange and restart
HTC tool should help with your settings or use google
so, google "T-Mobile US APN settings" without quotes if t mobile US was your network

i tried what you suggested no luck in the u.s. the sttings are suppose to be epc.tmobileus.com but still does not work

long shot but try giving your SIM card a clean and stick it back in, another longshot is try installing WITHOUT an SD card, just curious if that is another one of the issues that can happen with a incompatible card, yeah i know the rest is working fine but try it and see, you never know!
other than that im running out of ideas...

did you download the htc data connection app from marketplace, or can you, to automatically configure your hd2 for tmous?
why were you manually trying to configure your hd2 for t-mobile network?
best bet is to re-flash since it worked before.

the 3g service stopped working when activated the phone .... market works but i can only log in through wifi and i did download htc connection set up and ran the app it said that the apn was set . but when i tried to run internet explorer its says no data service.

use epc.tmobile.com... That's the one I used worked fine. Now I just use connection setup to setup my mms messages also.
Also stupid question is the 3g switch on in settings.

I've got the same Problem....
I'd the same Problem on Nand Android so i decided to switch to win7. But same Problem here. If i have 3g enabled i got no Service at all. If i disable 3g i got Service and Data Connection begins to work.
See this Thread in Android section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971920
So any hints how to get 3g working?
Phil

start again,
flash a stock original ROM for your device, put it all the way back to WM6
you will need to SD card flash this ROM
then go through all the steps, HSPL, Radio, magldr then try WP7
when things dont add up its often best to start from scratch.

I've done exactly that when i migrate from android to WP7. The only thing remains on the Phone was HSPL. And after all (installing MAGLDR and so on) the Problem persists.

if hspl was still on then you didnt stock original ROM flash via SDcard
you need to download an official ROM from whoever sold the phone
doing that will remove hspl, reinstall the spl, radio and the ROM
make sure its an old ROM with a 1.4x SPL, then install hspl again, 2.08

Ok I've done what you tell me.
I have a Device from Vodaphone Germany and i can't find any Rom with 1.4x. The oldest i found was 1.72.
I extracted the Rom and copy the LEOIMG to the sdcard. Power on Phone with Vol down and flashed the ROM with sdcard. Reboot the Phone and all cames up fine.
Power down Phone and wen't into SPL Mode, installed HSPL, updated Radio to 2.15.50.14 and installed MAGLDR 1.13.
After this i flashed my WP7 Rom and let it boot. Choose all my seetings in the wizzard. Enter my LiveID credentials and tapp on login. And after a few seconds i get the Message the Phone could not Connect!
But it seems this is another issue cause i got a big "H" and full Service.
Thank you very much!

am i right in thinking that was different to the previous problem, where it would only connect with 3G disabled?
if thats the case that happened to me as well, i had to do the HTC connection wizard trick, change it to something else, restart, change it back again, restart
everytime i flash i have to do that which isnt too much of a pain

[Q] Help!! No service!

Hello,
First of all,
- I'm on Imilka's GB vivo (ported from mdj vivo for des hd)
- I'm using radio 2.15.50.14
- I live in the netherlands
- My network provider is KPN Hi (no data plan, only using Wi-Fi)
Yes, I've searched for this problem already, found 2 different threads, both with (more or less) the same problem, both without solution, so I thought "let's try this again"
two days ago, I took my phone and started to play some games, listen to music etc. just like I do normally, but then I got a pop-up saying "no service". I tried to connect to my network in settings, but then it said my sim-card didn't allow my to connect to KPN. I tried different roms (all android nand) and radios, but without succes. Yesterday I tried putting winmo on it again, then it worked. SD android also worked for some reason. Well I really want Android, and I really love those sense 3.0 parts like lockscreen and rosie, and I definitely want gingerbread sense, but there aren't any of those SD builds.
Do I really have to go back to winmo with a SD build?
Thanks in advance!

You can try this:
go to Dialer and press: *#*#4636#*#*
Then go to Phone infomation, select: WCDMA preferred
press Refresh than Update and Toggle DNS check (0.0.0.0 allowed)
reboot

Doesn't work either
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App

Do you have a rom that did work? if so you can try this:
Extract the libhtc_ril.so and the libril.so and replace the ones that you have in the rom and then try again. I would replace it by pushing it into the rom and then reboot, you might need to fix permissions if it doesnt work the first time. Thats what controls the communication between the radio and the cell towers.

Hmm I don't think this will work...
first because I haven't found a working nand so far (only sd) and second because I'm a NAND Android user since it came out, but this is the first time with this problem...
And I've done fix permissions already about 20-30 times =C
I tried putting the SIM card into my sisters phone too, she had full service. The weird part is that I also put my mothers SIM card in my phone earlier, and I had full service, WEIRD. So I thought at first it was my provider's problem, because Vodafone works perfectly good, but then my sister came with her full service...
Still thanks for reply. I hope someone comes with working solution soon...

anyone?
I really need a solution... stuck with wm now. maybe going to wp7

task 29, reflash radio, MAGLDR then android rom? Might help, iunno. xD

I was experiencing the exact same thing as you describe. Unfortunately.....i prob just forgot to renew my contract :S
You were able to call with your sim in another phone??

I already did task29 and its not because of contract because Im on winmo now, and I do have service all the time..

Hi
i got exactly the same Problem. in Android no Service. WMO works well all the Time. if i set to gsm only i got network connection for 1 minute or so. Any hints???
Phil

So, some Progress....
i flashed a RUU to went Back to WMO Stock. -> Wireless Service works well.
next step i installed MAGLDR113 and ClockWork Recovery
Next i flashes this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933951
Flashed gApps
Reboot
Can't get wireless Service
Phone *#*#4636#*#*
Phoneinformation
GSM Only
DNS check 0.0.0.0 allowed.
Now i got stable Wireless Service Connection. Only 2g but stable till now.
We should gather some Infos to find simularitys between Phones having this Problem:
HTC HD2 LEO EU-Version
Radio: 2.15.50.14
16GB Micro-SD Card 15GB fat32, 1gb ext4 for App2SD
T-Mobile DE
MAGLDR 1.13
Another thing i see on my Phone. If i deactive the PIN-Code and restart the Phone i got network Connection with 3G for about 5 seconds. So it seems there is something which kills the 3g Connection on Boot.

still no solution... anyone else pls?

I have the same problem. Had it with my phone a while back and sent it in for repairs to HTC (for freezing issue). Got another back and it worked fine for awhile. But now I'm getting the temporary no signal issue. Only solution I have found is to turn on airplane mode and turn it off.
Also, I have been able to receive text messages when I have "no signal" but cannot send them.
Running Magldr 1.13, radio 2.15, miui 1.5.27

[Q] Mobile network disconnects when the screen is off

Hello,
I've noticed something strange this past month. I was getting data disconnections and I could'nt figure out why. Each time I look at my phone, turning the screen on, mobile network (voice + data) is missing for a few seconds, and comes back.
Now I know that if I keep the screen on for a while (I tried more thant 1 hour), I don't loose the network, but if let the screen go to sleep I immediately loose the network (I don't receive whatsapp messages in background), and when I turn the screen on, it comes back.
Weirdly, when my phone could reach 4G, I had (almost) no disconnection. It only happens in a 3G, edge, or nodata zone.
I changed my carrier (I just moved from europe to New Zealand), and it doen't change the problem.
I'm using CM11-Nightly (sept) on a I9505. I tried installing an old nightly(from july), and it was really full of error messages, so I switched back to a recent nightly, but in the meantime I had no disconnection.
Thank you for your help

I don't know exactly where this option is, but it's for battery saving. You can choose that somewhere in your settings I think

I think that's true for Wi-Fi, but I never found it for network.
And now it seems that network won't come back if I don't go to airplane mode and back to normal mode.

I'm having the same problem, seems to mostly affect lollipop installs.
Did you find a solution?

No I didn't. It seems that somewhere in july 2014, CM11 included a new version of the modem. So every CM11 build after that and every CM12 build is affected (I don't know about other roms).
I read that it was the way the modem handled finding the best network method. With the previous modem (v5 ?) it tried to get LTE, 3G, etc... but now it fails when it fails to get the prefered network.
4 solutions:
- flash the modem (didn't try it, don't know how)
- You're supposed to be able to choose you're prefered network in the options and choose 2G/edge. Didn't work for me but I'm interested in your feedback.
- get an old version of CM11
- live with it (my current option :'( )
There is maybe another solution, I'm not an expert, just a desperate user.

Hey again, I did fix it for myself.
The modem is the problem (I flashed my modem, and my bootloader just to be re-up-to-date).
If you want to get lollipop for yourself you should do it, its not too hard
Its listed as Qustion 14 on this here page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419762
I don't mind trying to give some pointers if you need help understanding how to do it, but I did this at 5am while sick so my memory of what I did is not 100%, never the less I would like to help if you need it.

Thank you for the advice (you came seeking for one, and ended up helping me ).
How did you choose which modem version to pick up ? the latest ? Do you have to do it after every CM upgrade ?
Edit:
I found the latest version from one of your links : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50965837#post50965837
Is the "Combined package - both modems in one flashable file." ok ?
And what does flashing the bootloader do ?

"What it does"... I am not 100%, I assume it initialize some part of the system, HW or kernel level, but I might be way off.
In any case I did use the dual modem pack to flash both "PHONE" and "PDA", another thread I asked in just replied to another user with the neccessity to flash the new bootloader aswell (dont know if the version numbers applies for you):
u must be using a 4.4.2 baseband and bootloader .. just a 4.4.2 baseband will not work .. once updated ur set

My question is on this page a bit down, and some replies a bit further down than that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735248&page=116
Tip: I had to save the PIT to a file (did it twice to be sure) with heimdall before using odin to flash (couldn't get heimdall to work for that part), all because odin would not play nice inbetween loading the PIT from device and flashing, this might not be a problem for you at all so it's just an FYI.

I managed to flash the modem & the bootloader. So far, no disconnection, so I'm quite happy.
