[Q] [Blackstone] Getting Invalid Sim with any sim. - Touch HD General

Hi everyone;
I have a HTC Blackstone which is already carrier unlocked (not very sure, but it was working with my current carrier sim 1 week ago), today when i started it up, it said: "Invalid Sim".
So i've loaded Energy Rom today. The ROM has been installed successfully and at the first place, i've seen USB mode with Olinex.
My current status is:
Radio: 1.13.25.24
Protocol: 56.62.25.34U
Rom version: 17.01.2011 WWE
OS Version: 4.2.21916
I've already search on the forum, the only subject that i've found is:
Task 29 from HD2 now confirmed to work for Blackstone
Could you please help me. I don't have a phone anymore
Thanks in advance.

Hi Hakim;
I've upgraded my radio using CustomRUU and my radio became successfully 1.17.25.09.
I rebooted my HTC and inserted a sim into, and still get Invalid Sim.
Do you think that it's a hardware failure rather than a sofware failure?

By the way, with the latest radio installed, it says:
Sim card missing.
But the issue is, wifi is still working, so i think that maybe it's not really a radio rom issue.
What do you think guys?

Have you tried unlocking sim?

ROM 3.16.52 compatibility

Hi,
Does the manipulator work with the latest update versions:
ROM 3.16.52 ENG
Radio 3.23.01
Thanks for the great site !!!
We've mostly tested with 4.x ROMs, but there's no reason it shouldn't, until they lock us out again like they tried for 4.20, at which point we need to spend another day or two getting back in.
Thanks for the reply but the radio version would that be the same as the protocol version in the 'Device Information' window?
If that'so, mine is 32S54. Can you tell me if your solution can unlock these XDA as well? TIA.

downgrade the radio stack?

i have upgraded my radio stack to version to ver 6.24.00 but now my sim doesnt work anymore (no radio connection anymore ) so now i want to downgrade back to the old version. I upgraded because i wanted to unlock but now i cant even use my 02 prepaid ... i need help
i have a xda 1 from o2 germany locked with rom version 3.1.9.01,
You have used the wrong radio Stack. 6.xx are for PW10B-Models (US-Version) with 900/1900 MHz Network receipient.
You have to use a 4.xx ROM, i would say. Check the Rear sticker of your device.
What is shown in Start -> Settings -> System -> Device Information ?
You shoud be able to fix it by doing this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
If your device is already booting to the today screen you should dismiss steps 1 + 2....
Stefan
thanx for caring... ive downgraded it back to radioversion 4.21.00, it took the hole night but it works again...but i still want to remove the f...ing simlock, but now i am a bit scared...
ok, here the requested data
rom 3.19.01 GER
rom date 05/27/03
Radio 4.21.00
Protocol version 32S54
i know i should be a new topic but i am trying to save server space...
ive got a gps device connected to my beloved XDA 1 (as mentioned above) and the instructions tells me to unlock (ge i hate this word!!!) the com port on my device, so heres my new question, can i unlock it and where can i do this, i havent found a menue to do this...can soneone send me a walkthrough?
For unlocking the device i would suggest to install XDA Developers ROM Version 1.2
For "unlocking" COM1 you have to disable infrared/beam in the settings....
Stefan
Tx Stefan
ok Gps is working fine...
is it save to change the rom? what do i have to consider?
I have a similar problem. My XDA has a rom version that I couldnt find on the list. That is 4.01.16 ENG. Is that normal?
And also I tried to update radio verdion to 4.21.00 but after updating the programme B i couldnt load programme A. When I plug the sim card MY XDA locks and i have to reset it. So i cannot use it as a phone. What can I do?

PM10A No GSM on bootup :(

Hi people.
I have an ImateJam PM10A that i require help with.
On boot up i notice it says "no GSM" D.1.12.00 WWE
The sys info i get from device information is:
ROM Version 1.12.00 WWE
ROM Date 05/28/05
Radio version BLANK
Ext rom version 1.12.119 WWE
As a result no GSM whatsoever.
Hope you guys can help me ?
Kind regards,
Mitch.
did you do anything to your jam before this happened? i dont know too much about this stuff but i would say reinstall the rom, heres what clubimate has to say about pm10a rom upgrades:
If the model number indicates PM10A, then the customer should upgrade with the Generic Worldwide English ROM Build. You will not be able to install the North American JAM (850) ROM. This WWE build does not include the connection settings for the US operators found in the North American build, though these are all available to download separately from club i-mate™.
Hi..
Ur r seeing no GSM on boot because radio is missing,meaning no phone,just the PDA...
U just have to reflash radio,and for doing that:
go to the ftp from here,download MAupgradeUt_noID.exe,and a radio ROM of ur liking(1.12 is preferable,it is radio_.nbf file),put the 2 files in 1 folder,remember to also put RUU.dll in it,enter ur phone in bootloader mode by pressing power button,camera and reset(i guess,it's been a while since I have'nt reflashed a Magician :wink:,anyway make sure by reading the wiki page from here),then run MAupgradeUt_noID.exe,and follow on screen procedures...
Good luck...
RAGO :lol:
Tried an upgrade to the latest UK wwe full image using MAupgradeUt_noID.exe and also the latest radio rom.
whilst the upgrades complete ok the radio version and protocol version still remain blank??
any ideas on what the generic world wide flash file is called and i will give it a go.

FAQ: How to do a Rom/Radio Upgrade with SD Card..
Solution:
1.Copy BLACIMG.NBH into the root dir of your Storage Card.
2. Be sure to have at least 30% of charge.
3. Turn off your device by using the Power Button
4. Go to bootloader mode. Push and hold Vol Down + press Power button.
5. As soon as presented the message, push Power button to start flashing or Volume Down button to cancel.
6. The whole procedure will take about 3 minutes. After you finish and see the relative message, soft reset your device, you are ready.

So you want to flash radio 1.09.25.14? to 1.09.25.14? That's the same radio.
If this is your first time flashing, please make sure you have Hard SPL (protects your device from being destroyed).
The process is explained <<HERE>>

My suggestion is to try most of them. Don't make decisions based on others as it's not a popularity contest but more about where u are in your own location. Sometimes it's as specific as the GSM towers and where they are located in respect to your neighborhood.
....and the latest radio is not always the best. I've gone through all the radio's and I'm using a radio from approx a year ago.
Test based on the following:
• battery consumption
• reception (GSM, GPS, BLuetooth, etc.)
• how hot it runs when using the device....etc.
thanks for the reply
I was thinking last night, could it have been a dodgy sim unlock thats the problem? ie making it look as if its unlocked but not actually unlocked?
I presume rom flashing wont sim unlock either?

You've presumed correctly, flashing a rom will not sim unlock your device...

If unlock went haywire, you wouldn't be able to use SIM from another provider... or any at all.
So it's radio version (most probably) not quite appropriate for your area.
I used GB (Orange, if I'm not mistaken) ROM (1.59.61.2) and I also had some weak signal issues.
I have tried 1.17.25.09 radio, but it has also some issues, including a bit greater battery drain. On the other hand, that radio has fastest satelite lock of all radios I tried.
So go on, try which radio is best suited for your area... Or maybe first try that Orange ROM I used... link is on Wiki...
