Htc tytn help needed

Hi everyone i need abit of help.
iv recently got a HTC TYTN from a friend but it has no network, the phone operates well and i can play mp3's and videos(everything works fine). But there is no network when i search for one it gives me all the networks i need but does not register itself on the network according to the sim im using. The only time it gets a network if i turn off and on flight mode then i will search for network, but this hardly works iv had the phone for a month and i only got a network twice, but if turn off the phone and back on again i have to go through the same flight on and off procedure to get a network.
Please help.

either the phone is blocked by the IMEI number or you need to upgrade the radio rom
look on the wiki there are links there for radio roms
If the imei is blocked then you are screwed as nothing will unblock it except the network provider that blocked it originally

thanks man. Will try how do i check my bootloader version and radio bootloader.

i wouldnt worry about the bootloader version click start > settings > system > device info and it will tell you the radio version there. are you sure that the device worked ok on the sim provider you are using. What i mean is ,is the hermes unlocked to any network ,have you tried a sim from another provider?

when swithed it on it does not ask unlock codes or nething. it goes through but no network. im in south africa and we only have 3 service providers MTN,VODACOM and CELL C.
CELL C works only if i turn off and on flight mode, i got it right once. I tried the other sevice providers and nothing works.

radio version is 1.18.00.10
But for this radio rom thing to work dont i need RadioBootloader version 107 or less

so if you put another providers sim in the phone do you get this sign ! where the ariel strength should be? if so it may not be sim unlocked. But that will show even if it has been blocked. Was your friend on a contract and then stopped paying it so he gave you the phone or did you buy it from him

Yip i do get this sign !. im not sure where he got the phone from. i never bought it from him.

if you havent done so already install HARDSPL you can find the link here and the instructions how to do it as well

thanks buddy gonna try it out.

once you have installed hardspl install this which will cid and sim unlock so you can flash any rom to the device and use any sim

I have a feeling though that your phone is blocked though mate, if it accepts one sim but not the others but worth a try anyway

You can download a new vision of your PPC's radio driver,I tihnk 1.47.30.10 is the best

Changing the Radio ROM isn't advised as this is a sure-fire way to brick your Hermes if something goes wrong with the flash.
If the phone IS blocked then no amount of OS or radio ROM changing is gonna fix.

Data issue with Kaiser/MDA Vario III :(

Hello,
(I also posted this in the kaiser general forum, but figure this might be a more fitting place for it, in retrospect)...
I have an (apparently) unlocked MDA Vario III. I originally tried with a virgin UK payg sim, and also a T-Mo UK sim, but no matter what settings I try, whether on standard Rom/Radio, or custom, I cannot make the data connection work.
I'm currently on the stock T-Mobile Rom and Radio, with factory T-Mobile data settings. Even that, with an activated T-Mobile sim gives me the "Cannot connect to the network for an unknown reason" error message. I'm sure the APN settings are correct, and I'm sure that it's not down to a specific ROM, or Radio having tried many of each.
What else could be causing this? Have I scuppered the phone by trying to unlock it? Could it be the SPL? (That's the only non-stock thing currently on there). Is there a way to generate some kind of log from WinMo to work out what's going on?

[Q] Phone cannot connect to Mobile Network (CM 10.2)

Hello, I had successfully flashed my LG G2 (D802) from stock to CM 10.2. The sim card was recognised and joined immediately to EE (UK - Mobile Network *T-Mobile/Orange*). During Christmas I tried flashing a new nightly from Cyanogen Mod (11), however I had an outdated clockworkmod version (even though I couldn't update it further). I couldn't launch back to CM 10.2, as the data was wiped when trying to flash CM 11 (Nightly).
Due to not having a back up file, I reverted to factory settings first, then wipe 'all' data off my phone using ALL the options avaliable on CWM. I then had to use 'adb' to push CM 10.2 back into to the phone. It successfully flashed and it was running stably. During the set up pages, CM gave me a pop up to look at sim card instructions to 'get it working', i thought this was a minor problem and couldn't to set it up. When this was finished, gave me everything (WI-FI, bluetooth etc.), however I didn't connect to my Mobile Network 'EE'.
I set 'Data Enabled', Network Mode: WCDMA Preferred.
I tried automatically/manually connecting via the CM settings, but response was 'Could not connect to this network. Please try again later.'
So no luck so far in connecting the phone function back up.
I would be truly thankful if everyone could help with a solution. ^_^
Many Thanks!

I've found out that the phone is locked to a HK network, but I am currently studying in the UK. The problem is that I can't unlock the phone in the UK with using the HK network; I have a HK sim card as well as UK, but since the phone is locked I can't use a UK sim card and the HK sim card doesn't seems to register UK Networks.
Anyone got suggestions to bypass this?

[Q] [q] htc hd2 signal problem

Hi,
I need to know what is with my HTC.
I have the EU version of T-Mobile, Vodafone sim (I was in her shop to change. For new) In another phone runs normally.
So the problem is as follows. I had android 4.0.4 and there ceased to function signal, I put the phone to backup the default Windows Mobile 5.6 with official rom and radio (the latest version). The problem persists. But if I give another card to phone eg. O2, T-Mobile phone works normally. Vodafone card was connected corretly to this time. But not is'nt working.
I tried to choose network manually unfortunately found phone networks - click has been uploaded window "Registration in the network ..." A top searches for signal ... And it makes all the time and after a minute my phone reports that the network is not available. Coverage is here - H, G.
There is no problem in setting mobile network?
Or in ROM, SPL and another?
Thanks for the answer!

does your Vodafone sim work on other phones?
Edit; sorry, you said it did.
Odd that your first one just stopped working.
Which ics rom was it?
which (h)spl was/is installed?
more details please.

[Q] HTC HD2 can't send SMS or call a number

Hello,
I live in The Netherlands, and my mobile operator is Tele2. I installed Android 2.3.7 on my HTC HD2, with Radio Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14.
But I can't send an SMS, or call a number, becasuse the network is not available. The network is also not available on Windows Mobile 6.5.
Which Radio ROM does work the best with Tele2 (The Netherlands). Or is there another solution for this problem?

Is HD2 network locked or have hardware issue ?
I would do clean install of generic WM6.5 from links in the HD2 Wiki .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_HD2#Official_ROMs_.26_Radios
If get it working on that then move to another platform.

I flashed some Radio ROMS, but they all don't solve the problem. I already flashed the stock Windows Mobile 6.5 OS, and also that doesn't work.

Borrow a sim from someone and see if it works

I tried it with my own Tele2 SIM card, and with a Vodafone SIM card, both don't work.

Did you recently buy the phone?
Or is it your old phone which worked and when you tried android it stopped working?

I recently purchased the phone from someone. He said it was working. When I got the phone, I flashed a new Radio ROM and Windows Phone 7, and did not check if my SIM card was working with Windows Mobile and the original Radio ROM. Now, I flashed Windows Mobile 6.5, but it is not working. Also Android doesn't work. I tried most of the Radio ROMS.

@Mister B will know more than I about this, but I think it is locked to a specific carrier, eg O2
Just to be sure, is it EU model (white call & end call buttons) or tmous model (green and red)?

The phone has white call & end call buttons, so it is the EU model. The previous owner did not know if it was locked to a specific carrier, because his SIM card just worked with the phone. How can I get to know if it is locked to a specific carrier?

I would have thought flashing hspl would have done it, and you have already done that to get wp7 on it previously.
Not sure

I flashed 2.08.HSPL on the phone with HSPL4, to get Windows Phone 7 and Android running.

I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28342560&highlight=carrier+locked#post28342560
in which Mister B mentions that the phone might be blocked due to an unpaid bill or stolen. Worth a read for you possibly.
Where did you get it from?

I don't think that's the case. I thought the problem was the Radio ROM, maybe I need to get a Radio ROM which works with Tele2 (Carrier)? If yes, I don't know which ROM.
I got the phone from a Dutch site where you can buy and sell things. And the previous owner used the phone with Vodafone.

Does the device actually know a sim is inserted or does it always show as no sim present ?
Showing as no sim present would be good indication of hardware problem.
If sim locked or blocked IMEI it will show sim present.
As such any of the main HD2 radios will be fine with your network & would allow full radio function if all else good.
I always fault find on original HD2 WM6.5 or a trusted WM6.5.x custom rom.
Dead sim reading is not that uncommon & can be mainboard issue or even the sim holder so worth looking at sim holder a little.
Most of the used HD2's sold online are faulty mainly due to amateur repairs so good chance that the case here.

There is a SIM inserted, because I need to enter a PIN code for the SIM. But I when I try to send an SMS, it says the network is not available. I get that message with Windows Mobile and with Android.

Does your sim work on another phone?

Yes, the SIM works on another phone.

I would say then it either network sim locked or IMEI blocked or radio hardware issue on mainboard.
Worth gong into phone settings & checking radio bands & try manual connection to varying networks.
Ideally want try all this on generic WM6.5 & reflash radio after rom flash (try radio n my signature)
You could also try an unlock by cable at local shop !
After that you stuck really ...
