Hi all the buddies out there...
Did anyone experience problem with making calls and receiving incoming calls? I tested the ROM without any add on application installed. When I call my mobile, the first attempt will not be able to connect and it will end up into my voice mailbox. Second attempt will wake up the phone and get connected. Sometime, first few calls will be also failed.
About making calls, sometime I can't dial out and need to try few times. It make me very frustrated with the problems of the basic function of a "phone". I really appreciate any suggestions or fixes you may be aware. Many thanks.
Make sure you hardreset with NO/YES/YES options.
Hard reset does not help at all
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Of course I do hard reset everytime I upgrade my BA code and when I wanted to clean up my phone. This is a normal procedure.
I believe everyone who is using it as a phone will not live with the phone function problem. I would appreciate whoever ever experienced this problem and have the work around method can share with me. Billion thanks and hope I can really get a solution. It is really frustrating...
i read your previous posts (re WM5 roms), and it is puzzling why your unit exhibits problems on calls even then...
is your radio already v1.15?
I did not have any call function problem with the earlier version of WM5. Ever since I upgraded my WM5 to newer version, I started to have the phone's problem.
I tried to downgrade the radio firmware from 1.15 to 1.13 to 1.12.
1.12 so far give me the least problem. I experienced drop calls occasionally, but huge reduce in incoming call problem. I still can live with sometime cannot make outgoing calls. The most important, people can reach me more consistently.
I had this problem on Orange UK; a new SIM card fixed it. Try borrowing a SIM card from another phone and see if the problem still exists for you.
had changed to a new sim card but problem persist..I think will just throw away my BA...
Wouldn't be cheaper to go back to WM5 or WM2003SE, instead of [FONT="]throwing[/FONT] the BA...?
Downgrade radio
Or maybe downgrade your radio version?
I experience the problem with Radio 1.12.
When I upgrade to 1.15, the problem is gone.
Thanks to Helmi to give us this great ROM.

Hi
Hope someone can help
I have a Orange SPV M3100, unlocked with HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a and upgrade with HTC_TyTN_WWE_3.54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108
This is how it looks now
I have tried to install other versions and other radio versions but the problem is still the same.
I have full signal, i can use the internet, I can send and receive SMS but i cannot call out or receive calls.
Today I tried to put my SIM card in one of the newer HTC models and everything worked fine.
Anyone having an idea
thanks
Try to change your Rom, i recommend Schaps or TNT.SE and check the forms which Radio to use in your country, though your problem is really weird.
I had the same issue and had to temporarily use an iPHONE !!! AGGHHH !!!! . try to disable the 3G through the Comm Manager. See if that works. it worked for me, made things slow, then after a few hours i decided to try to turn 3G back on, and it worked fine.
I then flashed to a new ROM - but had the same issue again. i did the 3G diable thing and it worked for me.
No real answers here, but give that a try.
first of all i am sorry to start a thread with a problem
i looked the forum w/o similar problem to this (please correct me if im wrong)
i plead to you developers to help me ,im stuck, depressed, and angry from my cruise
here it is :
i have touch cruise that i bought 1 month ago ( ONE MONTH, DAMN!!)
FIRST IT WORKED fine for few days , then the bigbang:
when i have (H) OR (3G) IN RADIO : no calls at all, its like phone is off, everytime i try to call ,the call end and then bleebed twice (end call tone)
cannot receive call either?? ( yes, HSPDA OR 3G is enabeld,, and band settings are set to auto)
when i disable hspda or 3g ( or set band to (gsm only) ,it works fine with G, E, or standard gsm
but not 3G ( NOW FEELING MORE DEPRESSED).
i cannot connect to internet : even in G,E,OR standard gsm
it says : connected, ---> connecting---> opening ,,,,then it get STUCK in 1 kb or 2 kb for ever-----( shows 1st line or two in google page but no more) then an error message ( there seem to be aproblem with your connection,,BLAH,BLAH,BLAH).
- I TRIED AUTOCONFIGURATION AND MANUAL TOO, NO USE ( not a settings or configurations problem)
- note : i tried my chip on my nokia 6680 and it is working like a charm ( internit, 3g, everything) ( not a chip or service problem)
- my friends ( have o2 life and touch dual ) have exactly the same settings and connecting from exactly the same place and service with no problems
- tried to move from area to area (even city ??????<--- desperate huh?)
with no use.
- THEN: I GOT EVIL : flashed new rom (bebe .67) - thanks btw- and newest radio for touch( cant remember the name ( 61 something, but was the best reviwed one)---> guess what?--> no useeeee
tried murata radio --------> you know what. ( by the way the reception strenght is exellant, thats not the problem)
flashed mobiz room ----> suicidal feelings ( yes ,no use)
flaSHED udk ----> nothing, natta
still stuck
returned to original radio---> its like cruise is telling me : GIVE UP DUDE, WHAT ARE U ,NUTS? IM NOT DIONG IT ,OK.
-before that i did dozens of hardreset, softreset ( almost every day or two)
pleeeeeaaase guys u r my only hope ,before i crash my cruise ( i mean it)
- i am ready to pay ( or donate)if necessary ( just tell me how, paypal not supported in my place , just give me another way and ill do it ,
i got sick of this
my brother makes fun of me : pocket pc huh? with no 3g or internet CAVEMAN?
again , sorry for long thread, sorry if misplaced,
thank you in advance
3G H network problem
I upgraded to radio 1.64.08.21 a month ago. Everything works fine for a month, till friday. Saturday my phone was off and I used gps for 40 min. Sunday start problems: I can use phone only in gsm band, in this way I can connect in edge or gprs and make calls, otherwise not call are allowed (two bips and the call is terminated) and no data connection! I have a dualsim adapeter, but with another sim card same problem! I try murata rom but no luck. Same issue! One more thing: saturday my battery was drained to zero, if it means something!
Nobody help us? Do We need to give our TC to htc assistence!?!?!
(I made this post also in all polaris radio)

allanon? you r speaking my mind
this is exactly the same problem
i hope someone will help us soon
and yes, i dont want any help from those htc support , all they are good at is repeating your words like parrots
I suggest to put the original ROM and RADIO and after that the original SPL ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1962153&postcount=79 ) and go with it to warranty... if you changed so many roms it means it is not a software problem i think.
Did you took out the battery and put it back in?
downgrade..
downgrade your radio rom to Murata (1.58.21.23)..
don't forget to backup your data, because Murata Radio does hardreset after downgrade..
3G H network problem
I tried Murata and original 1.58.21.23 rom, no luck! I read something related to the sim holder: It could be the cause of our nightmares! In fact I have a dual sim switching two sim, both 3G. The first day I buy polaris it works well switching from first sim to second and viceversa. The second day it doesn't works anymore. I can switch sim only after a soft reset for one times and after first switch only second sim works. Thinking an incopatible dual sim holder I buy another one where the manufacturer say good for the cruise: same result!!!
Now, after the network problem the sim switch without problem!?!? I think is an hardware issue...
P.S. I have changed only radio, Rom is the original italian!
thanks all for replies
but problem still exist ,?????

0
Warranty
My tc now is sended back to assistence. Mine worked well more than 2 months without problem, then it died! Mystery of technology i guess.... I'll notice you when it's back!
@al_assiri2000
Search the forums for the 3G bug.
The problem occurs (according to the many reports I see here and in other forums) also with other units (like the Kaiser/TyTN II).
I had the problem myself with a Kaiser and they final solution was a change of the mainboard (on which occasion I returned the unit for refund because the mainboards were out of stock and a delay of weeks was announced).
The symptoms you describe point exactly to this problem.
Hardware problem...

Hi! So did somebody solve the problem finaly? Who manage to get device back fexed and what was the exact problem? I got the same problem with my O2 - mostly same I can tell... Cause in my case just EDGE and GPRS does not work - and it conserns just one operator.... Other opererator's sim cards work properly.... Changing sim cards of my own operator one to another does'n help.
Can somebody confirm that changing simcard base will solve the problem?
forget to telll
Just want to add that problem with my O2 occured in several weeks of using and I didn't change any settings and flashing rom or radio befor - so I think this is hardware.....
I just sent my polaris to warranty ( cellecom)---> pronounced : silly - come!!
im waiting now
im calling daily , they even know my voice now
hope to get my polaris soon .
i will post the updates as soon as i get it
thanks again to all of you guys
from all the replies : this is clearly a hardware glitch
at least i know what to do now--- waiting

from other replies , i think the problem is more than just an sim base
it has something to do with mainboard ( very poor quality hardware )- i think some one said (belguim company)
your best choice is to use ur warranty ASAP. ---> dont forget to put back ur original rom and radio and lock device back
good luck
I finally gave up and sent mine back to htc
they said it was the main board. they said that they would send back to me 3 to 5 days after they receive it. it took over 2 weeks but when all said and done it works great now and they did say they had to replace the main board. i sent it in right after the murata was discovered. I really wish i could have tried it to see if it would have fixed the problem. but anyways I have a new board to break now hehehe
Hi All,
I am new to this forum, however was using my HTC Elf for the past one year. All of sudden I started facing problem in making or taking calls. The Network on the screen remain full and complete still I am unable to make calls (i.e. the call drops, cannot be completed) or can't recieve the calls (i.e. caller gets my cell unavailable or switched off). This doesn't mean it happens always. Coincidently the calls are through without any problem at one go. The Authorized Service center at my city told me there was the problem with it's Network IC (I really don't know what's that) and he suggested me to sell of the phone asap. My cell is out of warranty so can't really offord to replace the mother board. I have upgraded the Radio ROM but is of no use.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Many Thanks.
Which network are you on?
Do your friends face the same drop calls issue too?
Have you tried hard reseting it?
Please backup before hard reset.
HI Jeremy,
here in India I am on Airtel Network and no one face the drop call issues. This is absolutely the phone problem as the same SIM card works perfect in other phone. I had unlocked my phone, upgraded the Radio ROM and hard reset it, but the problem still persist.

Oh.
Mmm, I think the motherboard inside the phone has issues than.
You have tried all ways to clear the phone?
Have you tried other ROMS?
This issue seems to be popping up quite a bit recently. Or maybe that I've just started noticing it since I started having the same problem.
Yes Jeremy. I have tried all the versions of ROMs. And infact other simcard also act same in my phone. Even I believe that motherboard has some issue. The Service center had told me the "Network IC" problem (though I didn't believe that) and to replace the motherboard (without warranty) would cost me 70% of the handset cost.
No point repairing motherboard, must as well get a new windows mobile phone.
So yeah.
I ran out of ideas already.
The only thing I can help you with is to, backup all your contacts to Google Sync, get a new iPhone or O2, than use that same protocol to transfer your contacts and calender data and mails to your new phone.
Cheers.
I am having a problem with my HTC Touch P3450 phone for the past 2 weeks. Although the GSM signal looks good, I am not able to make/receive calls. I am on "Phone" mode (not Flight Mode or similar). Everything else (WiFi, programs etc.) works fine.
My operator is Turkcell and I live in Istanbul, Turkey. The phone was purchased from the United States.
I have done a ROM update to ROM version 1.17.707.2B WWE but the problem still exists.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of problem? I suspect that this issue has something to do with the 3G upgrading process going on in Turkey.
Can you try to use your friend's sim card and see whether it works.
Is it something like a dropped call?
I tried two different SIM cards, one with my operator and one with another operator. I am still having the same problem.
The problem is that I cannot make any calls at all, rather than dropped calls.
Also I cannot take any calls, when I call myself from another phone it goes to voice mail as if the phone is turned off.
I guess it is a hardware problem then.

I think its time to change your phone's radio. go to the elf-upgrading section to find out more.
I have the same problem
Hi, i have the same problem. When I make a soft-reset on my Elfin it has signal, but just 3 or more minutes after i cloud not make any calls and if someone try to call me they receive the message that my cellphone is off. Rigth now i am performing a radio upgrade and i will let you know if this is the solution for the problem, if you are done with this please let me know how to solve this.
Hi I have the same problem with this phone, can some one of you tell me witch is Radio ROM is the best for HTC ELF.
Thank you guys

Same problem.

is thr any solution?
same problem here (P-3452 Elfin)
bsnl sim not working
Hello there.....
I am from Bangalore,India. i was using BSNL SIM for 2years. suddenly one day the Sim was dead. i thought sim problem so replaced 2 times after that got AIRTEL Sim. now its working fine. the problem is with 2 or 3 carrier operators. STRANGE!!!!!!!!
i have this problem too nobody to help pelease
tanx
please some one help me.....
I have been investigating this issue on and off for a few months now on one of my elf’s. I originally bought this phone off eBay to test stuff, and found no signal was being received when I got it. The auction did say this so fine. Checkmend says it is not blocked in any country, and is not stolen etc. Therefore, it is definitely something on the phone opposed to networks.
The phone can pick up signal, it noes networks exists, and can identify them, however, when registered and "connected" it does not pick up messages, and when I try to make a phone call the signal completely drops.
I like others have tried many roms. I have even tried every signal radio. I have also tried 6 different working Sims across a number of operators.
Basically, I think this issue is hardware, I mean, there really isn't anything else that I can think off. I have done some reading, and I *think* it may be down to the PA chips. There are 2 off these in the phone, one for Radio signal, and the other for Bluetooth, and wifi. (I think that is it).
These are located just above the battery on the back of the circuit board from what I can see, protected by 2 parts. One removable (two top screws - also contains the speaker) and one fixed into the middle part of the body.
I've done some playing, and it seems may be easy to break, either by dropping the phone, or even possibly by something as little as keeping the phone in a pocket and sitting on it.
I am not sure where I can go from here. I may need to investigate this further, but it is looking like it is going to be a dead end, considering I am not able to BGA solder to replace it, and expect the cost in doing so outweighs buying a new phone. I'm going to look into signal amplifiers, and see if I can find one that’s not just a piece of tin foil, and actually works. It will be interesting to see if that will improve the signal far enough for the phone to be usable once again. I may even just try with some kitchen foil, or by plugging in an external aerial (which I do not have yet, and may be costly, and therefore no point). If the external aerial works, I guess the chip could only be damaged, and not able to get enough strength itself.
This is only a theory on what I think is wrong with my Phone, and may be different to what everyone else’s is. But i thought I should put it out, to see if anyone else is able to confirm/kill my idea. It is a theory after all, they are made to be proven!
If anyone else has any ideas, feel free to pitch them, I like hearing what others are thinking, and it may be possible, although I admit very unlikely, that we could find a resolution to this issue!
Stu
@ashkan62 , can you provide a detailed problem please, this may give me something more to look at that I have missed.
wow. that's really informative. I've done upgrading radio roms too and even the spl. but nothing happened. hope your investigation on this works. thanks for the info.
or how about upgrading the o.s.? did someone tried that? coz I'm planning to upgrade my elf wm6.1 to wm6.5 and onyx 4 to onyx 6. would that work? what do you think?

I think it can't harm to try, be sure to follow the right procedure.
Yeah. I'll try to do the upgrade this week. I'll inform you if anything happens. (like bricking my phone. )
