new xda2 and orange rom.

Hello all ! Being new to swithching roms and all that.
Can you tell me if I can change a new xda2, on o2 ,bought from ebay to orange,since this is the payg sim I use?I know I don't have to but it all comes together better then.
Thanks everyone.

Change to Orange
Yep did mine no problem - jut unlock it with software from this forum and stick the SIM in

xda2 on oange rom
Thanks for reply.
So you just download latest rom from orange,and do upgrade,yes?
Seems to easy.

I actually just put the Orange SIM in and left the O2 software intact. I don't use WAP, GPRS, etc so didn't need to change anything.
I did have a problem with SMS messages being blank, so I upgraded the ROm to the IMate one and found that texts worked OK so log as I put a +44 in front of the phone number.
Good Luck

Hermes phone app and *123# operator strings

I'm in trouble with my Hermes (HTC TyTN, unbranded, Italian ROM) as the phone application seems not supporting the operator codes like *123# or similar.
My operator uses some of these interrogation codes to reply useful info like amount of monthly available minutes or megabytes... All the previous HTC phone app is supporting these, it seems very strange... Any idea about how sending these codes to the network on the Hermes?

i have the same problem, but i cant get the UK ones

WTF!?! :shock:
I will urgently need those codes to switch priority between my 3 O2 Multicards.

my operator (Cingular) uses these codes (like *646# to check minutes used/remaining) and they work fine on my TyTN

it works fine using the xda trion sold by o2 germany. i can even use the gsm codes needed for the wind prepaid card (for checking accounts balance).

This was somthing I didn't test when I upgraded my ROM from the German one to the Dopod english version. Anyway I gave it a try and I dont have any problems with my Trion. And I have updated my device with the Dopod ROM. All multicard functions with o2 work fine. The only thing that could be different with my device was that I did run some of the o2 German extended rom installations onto my device.

All network codes work fine with my German HTC TyTN. Just tested it with my new multicard USIMs.

Just solved - changing my old 32K SIM (Wind Italy) with a new SIM, all network codes are now working perfectly on my TyTn...

try the network settings wizard from htc.
you can get this on the htc-website.
under support section --> software (the same place where you can download the official rom-update)

SAP problem

I'm using WM6 Black 3.0.1 on a spv m3100 which connects straight to a Nokia 616 kit but Drops connection, this is with a T-mobile sim(this sim works in Nokia N80 phone in SAP with no problems).
Replaced sim with Orange PAYG sim and hey presto works with all features.
Have tried on 2 handsets with same results.
Anyone help/ideas would be appreciated

Try upgrading to WM6 Black Satin, i found the "SAP settings" program much more reliable.

Found it !!!!
Ignore post
Where do you download it from, I've tried wmblack.info but it tells me its not released.
thanks

Tried Black satin, same problem with T-mobile sim.
My thoughts are that this type of sim is not compatible with this phone, but I don't understand how it can initially connect and go through the whole pin process and then say connected via bluetooth in SAP mode then only not to fully connect, then when you turn of Nokia kit off it then disconnects from phone, it does seem like the phone is having a problem reading the simin this mode, even though it works fine in the phone in normal operation
As I said it works fine with a orange sim.
Does anyone know what the recommended sim type is for this handset.

Orange SPV M700 - Voicemail notification problem, please help it's driving me mad!!

Hi there
I am sitting here with lots of pulled-out hair lying around me on the floor. I have a problem with voicemail on my Orange SPV M700 which is wearing me down to a pitiful heap and if one of you clever people can help I will be grateful for even longer than eternity (and that's a very long time!).
I have an Orange SPV M700 which refuses to notify me when someone has left a voicemail. I think it's probably been like it ever since I started using an Orange 3G PAYG sim (I think it's called a USim).
Firstly, I have seen odd postings by others who have problems with voicemail on their SPV M700s, but they are normally people who have upgraded to WM6. I have not touched the operating system on my SPV M700 so am still running Windows Mobile ver 5.
By doing some tests/process of elimination, I have established the following:
1) Orange 3G PAYG SIM card does NOT give Voicemail notification when used in my Orange SPV M-700, but if I put the same Orange 3G PAYG SIM card into another phone (a old Samsung E700) the voicemail notification DOES work of the Samsung! Therefore I concluded that the problem isn't with the Orange SIM card or even, I presume, the Orange network.
2) An old Orange PAYG SIM card that I used to use DOES give Voicemail notification when in Orange SPV M700. Therefore I concluded that the Orange SPV M700 IS actually capable of giving out voicemail notifications. Please note that I notice that when the old Orange SIM card is in the SPV M700 the small square icon on the today screen top-bar is showing an "E" as the type of connection (I presume that's what it means?). When the problematic Orange 3G PAYG SIM card is in the SPV M700 the small square icon normally is showing a "3G"
This has led me to conclude that it's something to do with the SPV M700 not being happy with the Orange 3G PAYG SIM - or at least there's some setting that is wrong etc. However I have tried most things and still it refuses to notify me of awaiting voicemails.
Here is a list of my configuration settings on my SPV M700. If anyone can spot something that is wrong which may be the reason why I don't get voicemail notifications I'd be so grateful to know what is wrong as I can't keep phoning my voicemail all the time, just to see if anyone has left a message, as it's costing a lot of money to do that. By the way - I don't have any problems being notified that a new text message has been sent, that seems to work fine.

Basically I have everything set to notify me and also Display message on Screen.​I am hoping someone can help - letting me know if I have something set up incorrectly or whether I need a fix for the phone etc. I would rather not upgrade to WM6 as I feel that I might end up with more problems. I am quite happy with WM5 - it's just the voicemail problem...
Thanks for taking the time to read this posting - I am sure I can't be the only Orange SPV M700 owner who has had this problem?
Cheers for now
Man in need of Assistance...

Theres a cab file floating around somewhere called smsfix (if memory serves me right). This used to cure the voicemail problem with orange sims, hope this helps.
Sorry, its called sms providers fix.
Have alook at this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1212958&postcount=20

The "sms providers fix" will fix the problem as i've been using it for over a year with no issue's.

Hi - firstly many thanks for taking the time to post a reply to my problem. I will check out the "sms providers fix". I have seen a couple of refernences to it when I originally searched however it only ever seemed to be for people who had upgraded their ROMs to WM6. I have never done that and am still running the original Orange WM5 so assumed that the correct dll's etc were still on my WM5 phone.
I will download the files and see what happens.
...just noticed that user "Forza" mentions to make sure that the sdk certificates are installed first before installing the "sms providers fix" - do you reckon that would apply to me when I am still using the original Orange WM5 ROM?
Thanks again!

Bit miffed that although the SPV M700 looks & feels nice - buggy MiniSD card handling & other weird stuff means that I have got to get involved with all this Hard SPL-ing, ROM Upgrading & Radio stuff - confusing to a novice like me... time will tell if it's all been a big mistake!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
just seen that in your sig.....
trust me mate, its worth every minute flashing your rom, especially up to 6.1....much better than WM5
i was in the same boat as you, SPV M700 straight out of the box locked to orange etc...now im on custom roms, unlocked to any network, and on 6.1......best thing i ever did.

Hi Gizmolisa
Thanks for your reply. I guess I kinda know that you are right about upgrading to WM6. It's something I have fancied doing ever since getting the SPV M700 - my main problem is the concerns I have if I screw it up. I use the SPV M700 so much (not actually much as a phone - more for its PDA features) and if I botched up the upgrade I'd be really lost without it.
Having said that... maybe I should pluck up the courage and have a go. It just seems that there's quite a lot of things you have to get just right and because it's the Orange version of the Trinity i gather that once I start there's no going back to the original setup if things go wrong.
Wish I was braver!!!!
Cheers - still thinking about taking the plunge!!!!
