My XDA 1 phone has stopped working - no signal - can't phone - or internet or anything. It still connects to the emergency police number though - everything else works fine on the XDA. (It has ppc mobile 2002 on it.) Any ideas how to fix it?
Does this sometimes happen?
Is it the end of my device?
I have used the SIM card from my "non-working" xda1 in another phone and it works. I have used a SIM card from another phone which I know works, in my ."non-working" xda1 and it won't work .
I have set my xda1 to manual configeration, and it finds networks, it says available networks: KPN and Libertel, (I am in Holland). So I guess there must be a signal to and from my xda1. (Is that right?)
It doesn't give "telfort" as an available network. which is my simcard network. The xda1 says it is o2 uk all the time. Is it possible it still thinks I'm in the Uk and doesn't switch over to Dutch networks?
I'm in over my head with this...what should I do?.
I live in Holland - it worked fine. I took it to England - it worked fine - it switched over to the English phone networks etc. I bought it back to Holland and it stopped working!
I have just had a message on my xda1 saying: "unable to read settings from the net work."
The little mushroom icon at the top of screen never changes. There is no activity there.. . which I guess means there is no signal.
Does this mean the phone part of my xda1 is broken? If so, can it be mended?
a lot of questions I know!
Go to settings/phone and choose "network", when your required network shows choose it. It should do this automatically if "auto" is chosen.
I have the same Problem with my XDA1 and auto/manual configuration does not solve the problem. My SIM Card works with other mobil phones, too.
I upgraded the phone with the new o2 Radiostack, but still no change.
I tried the SpecialEdition Rom, bis the auto configuration did not work, so I got no signal, because I was not abel to set the phone to o2_de-loop.
Then, I upgraded the Windows to the new version available at o2. Sitll no change.
So, I'm going to disassamble the phone to check some soldering. I think this is some king of contactproblem, because sometimes - after serval resets - the XDA comes up with a working phone! But this only works until the next time I need to press the reset button.
You may have any ideas?
Greetings,
Timo
I'm not able to disassamble the Wallaby
The XDA must be closed with some kind of clip and I don't want to damage the hull of this beautyful and smooth device...
Greetings...

Hi,
I have switched aa sim in my XDA, worked with it for a day and then hardreseted the device. Since then, the phone doesn't work! It seems there is no reception (an exclemation mark near the antana icon) and the SIM manager does not load as well.
I'm with WM2003 4.00.01, Radio 4.21.00.
Did anyone ever experianced something like that?

Silly question, but have you tried to turn on the phone, btw. input your PIN?
Stefan
What do you mean?
Input my PIN? What does that mean?
I have hard reseted my device several times, and had to do nothing, what is this PIN number you mentioned?[/quote]
Isn't you SIM-card sved with a PIN-Code????
What happend when you press the "green" button on your device?
What's in the Display of the Telephone Application?
Stefan
My SIM card have no PIN number, and in any way where can I inout it?
The phone app just pops up empty, buty I can't make any calls - it seems it's only trying to dial (cought up in "Dailing...").
It's really kind of starnge - as if it does not recognize my SIM.

Can you repair this?
Is this a known problem? Can you tell me how much it costs?
Please guys - i have the same problem,
Dont know what to do next...im completely cluless.
Thank for the help in advance.
this is unique, never heard of it but if worse case worse try changing ur RSU version to another one, MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT AM TALKING ABOUT other wise search in the forum for 1% problem & you'll see what i mean :?
hi,
well if RSU (RADIO STACK UNIT) is changing the rom and the radio of the device - then i did it.
the roms that i`ve tried: 4.00.01 (2003), the special edition rom from here.
also i tried the official radio from O2 site.
dont know what else to do.
it is dtrange that several poeple has the same problem, makes you wonder that the fault is not in the hardware.
PLEASE HELP - anyone.
PLEASE....?
I'm using an Imate & Vodafone SIM, and when o2 released their new update which included Blackberry support I upgraded my device. Everything worked perfectly, I travelled to the Far East and Blackberry functioned correctly.
When I returned I decided to upgrade to 2003SE V2.06 and installed Blackberry, it didn't work. I then downgraded to 2003SE V2.02 and installed Blackberry, still not working.
So today I reverted back to the o2 V1.72 update, still not working, and the Blackberry Server is showing 'Illegal PIN Number'.
This is just a warning that the SE update may screw Blackberry up, or o2 & RIM have noticed that everyone is using their software and started to block non o2 devices that are running the software.
Hi,
Same message on my BES: 'Illegal PIN Number' and BBY not working. But I have it till the first time trying to connect, one month ago..
The client connects, gets an IP address and disconnects displaying the 'not connected' icon. However, the client receives Policy and Services from Server.
I still haven't found a solution... Any help welcome.
Serge
Eaxactly the same as I'm getting, I'm going to try the suggestion about removing the user from the BES, deleting settings on the XDA & Docuements & Settings and see if this works.
My initial thought was that the PIN number had changed but that does not seem to be the case.

t-mobile
Strangely enough same problem happened to me today. I called t-mobile they reproivisioned ... n othing etc. All of a sudden this afternoon it's working again?
I've tried everything, and still no joy, I emailed RIM and they just referred me to Vodafone, carefully ignoring the question about 'Illegal handheld PIN'.
Just out of interest, what is the PIN number of your devices, my only thought now is that we all have the same PIN, mine is 613F1E63. If this is the case then the upgrade has screwed our device ID's.
If not then there's a way of identifing the network from the PIN, and a block has been put on none o2 devices.
I've had a thought, what versions of BES are people running, we're runing V3.6 Sp2, the latest is 3.6 sp4 so I'm wondering if there maybe something in sp3 or 4 that fixes the Illegal Handheld PIN problem?
Is it possible to confirm BES versions an if the Blackberry client is working.
Sorry, I'll be at office only next week.
I'll then tell you my BES version. I think this is a good idea.
Serge
HI there.
I've been having the same problem, with the Australian Telstra network- I get the "illegal pin" response from the sever, even though the XDA connects OK (the server notes that it is is contact with the XDA)
Has anyone found a fix? Not sure if the culprit is Telstra blocking PIN's that are generated by devices that are not supported, such as the XDAII

Actually, all blocking happens at the master RIM relay in Canada. RIM regularly sweep their system for 'illegal' devices and software versions. So hacking the software out of 1.72.181 and putting it into a dodgy 2.02 build qualifies as 'illegal'. BAM - your PIN is blocked by RIM.
Changing your software afterwards back to 1.72.181 wont work, because the PIN is still blocked. You then need to call your mobile provider and beg them to get it unblocked.
:?
Thanks for that.
My original ROM was 1.66- are you saying that I have to go back to this version and then install the BB app, and then beg the mobile provider? If they re-set the PIN, will that get caught up in a sweep?
Cheers

Interesting. Sorry for all of the questions. Will removing and re-adding the user from the BES once 1.72 is installed suffice, or does it have to be re-set by the carrier?
Thanks again
Thanks for the advice- am up and running now.
Sync with the server is a bit dodgy, but have 1.72 installed and BB up and running- thanks for the help.

Because of BT headset/handsfree profile issues, someone tells me which is the best radio ROM to use with WM2k5?
1.18?
I'm actually using 1.14
Thanks
Fernando Correia
Mine is 1.18 and everything is ok. MW 05 is working like a charm for me.
I used 1.18 on WM5 and it worked fine for me. Some persons went back to 1.17 for some reason, I don't know what reasons. I reversed back to WM2003 SE.

Radio version 1.17 has more compatibility with the turning on/off of flight mode in WM5.0.
I am using 1.17 now and so far have not encountered any problems regarding the radio version. Try it! You can revert back to 1.14 anyway
Goodluck
i use 1.08
i currently use 1.18 and it has some serious issues under buzzmobile2005. the tricky thing is, you would not recognize the issues as long as you do not have a dual sim adapter in your device. i have one with two sim cards both pin protected. whenever i soft-reset the device and put in the pin for a certain sim card everything looks fine so far. but after a while taking a look on my device i see that the sim card has been switched an i am booked into my alternative network. i mean it is annoying but no disaster for me. but there is one issue making me feeling uncertain: switching the sim card should result in asking for the alternative sim's pin code. but it skips this step. should not the sim card prevent such access when pin code is activated?
another issue is that after switching flight mode off and on again it often happens that the phone does not switch on. i check the power settings and on the wireless page i see that the phone box is not ticked. i tick it and then tap ok. but whenever i take a look on the settings page the box still remains unticked. it is not always like this, sometimes it works.
maybe this all has to do with the using of a dual sim adapter. switching to 1.17 did not solve the problem, so i switched back to 1.18.
can someone using a dual sim adapter and buzzmobile2005 acknowledge this strange behavior. maybe i am the only one having these issues. thanks a lot.

Bought the Atrix last week and unlocked it with the help from the webshop as I'm in Belgium, no problem connecting to Mobistar wich is my provider and data connections works great. But I'm having real problems making phonecalls and recieving calls; the phone reboots or the dialer hangs and it looks like a call is going on when it's not, phone still works but flashing green in the notification area and it's impossible to hang up, need to reboot. This happens like 80% of the times I try to make a call. After a reboot it works fine to call and hang-up one or two times then it crashes again.
Also noted that my Dialer often runs twice in the Running Apps manager - is that normal??
Anyone having the same issues or know what to do, reinstall the Dialer app --> if so how? Is it a hardware or software problem??
A little more info: when I recieved the device it was in a sealed Atrix box but the phone was used and already had an active Blur account so I had to do a hard reset to be able to use it... --> was it returned 'cause of faulty dialer or radio... then resold to me... not nice if so...?
Tried to install dialer one app but it seems only to skin the original dialer...
It's a greate device and works great othervice but in the end it's still a phone... which should be able to make calls...
Help
Ive got an unlocked Atrix too and now in Germany, I have the same problem. Motorola should definitely look into this.
Here's a quick fix for it thou, (not permanent)....
1. type *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer
2. Chose Phone Information
3. Set preferred network to GSM only
Viola...its fixed
problem with this fix is that you wont be able to use your 3G network but the dialer should be working.
Thanks Nazrin (for both replies) !!
It sure did the trick, though no data access is not acceptable on a phone like this!!!
So this meens that all unlocked Atrix's in european GSM networks have the same problems? Haven't seen any others reporting this and there are quite a few in use I've noted in other forums.
Was thinking of trying to have mine replaced (which probably won't be easy and take long time...) but that won't change anything then??
We have to wait for the european version of Atrix rom I suppose??
Any others with the same problem??
No problems buddy, glad it worked..and i have to agree with you..this bug is unacceptable...it seems the phone just ***** up everytime it calls on utms (3g)...im sure there is more people with this problem...
Sent from my Supercharged MOTO ATX
I have the same problem
Hi guys, I have the same exact issue (I'm also in Belgium, on Mobistar). I'm somewhat glad to hear this is a generic issue, and not an issue with my specific phone. At least I can be fairly certain replacing it won't solve this issue then.
I made another post here before I came across this one, has a bit more info: we are seeing modem panics when using 3G + outbound call. I've also contacted Motorola support to no avail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028771
You can also read there that I tried another operator, and it did not crash with that one (although 3G did disconnect).
Hopefully Motorola/Qualcomm will start to notice the bug when they release the phone globally, and release a fix.
Either that, or we all have phones from the same bad batch
This bug is really bad for users in europe....cant call on utms...
I really hope motorola takes this seriously cos if there's no fix via software updates then its moto gone for me
Guys, you are all on unlocked att atrix right? I do believe it is a simmiliar software glitch/bug/lock that you have porblems using it on non att networks as the problem with the wifi that it stops working for some of us (check the thread about it for more info). As all suggests there it is a config file problem, unfortunately i or anyone else doesnt know yet which one....
Yeah maybe..but funny thing is wifi is working without a glitch...will have to read that forum later...
Workaround options
So, since it seems we're not gonna get this fixed until there is a new radio/modem firmware available for flashing (and even then..), I've been looking for a workaround.
Found two potential applications that could do what we need: disable data completely when making an outgoing call, or switch to 2G:
- Sanity
- Superpower
I've tested the first (Sanity), and it does not work (fully). It does seem to disable data, but the bands aren't switched so our problem remains. I've contacted the developer here: http://tagliamonte.net/forum/thread-10.html. He seems to be very responsive, so given enough interest, I think he would add the functionality we require.
The second app I only came across today, and have not tried yet. It does not have a function to specifically switch bands when making an outgoing call, but it has a trigger for "Foreground application", so if we make that the dialer/contacts... Question remains if it will be able to do the switch.
Hopefully one of these will lead to a decent workaround for all of us!
Well done unknown...i will try these apps... but the real fix should be from moto...im always reading the net for anything that can solve this issue
reboots on incoming and outgoing calls
Same in Russia on Megafon network, I had to enter 4636 menu and use it as "GSM only". Even this does not fully solve problems, e.g. call forwarding does not show the new destination number while it does actually make the phone divert calls correctly.
My hope is that UK release will trigger new software version which will address this issue. ANYONE has news on this?
FIXED!
YAY! I just fixed this issue
What you need to do: flash the radio from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052914
You have to use RSD-lite, since sbf_flash will not work. Flash the 1.87 baseband and enjoy working HSPA (including unlocked upload speeds ^^)
Now I can finally appreciate this phone fully
Enjoy guys!

Motorola Atrix restart when placing a call
I just got the same exact Dialer problem now, but the flash radio file is gone* in the pointed post, and I don't know exactly how to flash the radio.
Someone can help me? I need the radio file and step by step instruction to how to flash it.
BTW my Atrix 4G works perfect for a year till this Dialer problem started past week.
I also use my phone as a full Linux computer when docked, and it works very fine.
Thanks
* The file was on megaupload, that was closed

Why I never got an answer of any post I did?
There is something wrong?

but if there is no search bar in your setting . try this patch:
Android 6 : Setting/Apps then click the setting icon on top(may be diffrent in your case) , then Click on "default ...." then choose " System dialer" as Default! :fingers-crossed:
but in some cases that it didnt work . they have to reinstall gapps .
Or in official Roms , reset will be usefull
any quastions?

First of all, does the SIM-Card work generally - did you have try on SIM2 ?
I have another problem with my SIM Card - it will never start working, if I make a restart or quickboot (only if I shut down and start new)
... I solved this by going to the Settings of the DUAL NETWORK MANAGER and stop and restart the card by tapping twice on SIM1 Symbol - then it starts working without any issues. This is the most annoying thing on my device.
This problem starts, as I got another SIMCARD with a smaller golden Chip...
our Device has sometimes problems with the latest SIMCARD-Types
(Hardware-Problem from HTC) as I have found out.
You can also reset the provider settings to standard (Mobile Network Settings)
restart the phone. Then it will find a "changed Simcard" and you can choose the provider settings again.
Let me know if I could help you
