Just upgraded per DCS's instructions and am most pleased with the SE upgrade although my radio shows Radio verison 1.14.00 so I am hopefully assuming therein lies the problem.
I get no phone ring :( I've tried all the ring options from vibrate all the way up to ring to vibrate then ring, etc. but everytime I try to call my cell phone it never rings on the phone just eventually goes to voice mail. Anyone have any ideas or how to upgrade JUST the radio version to the current 1.18?
My PDA information if this helps is:
TMobile MDA II
ROM verison 2.06.00WWE
ROM date: 06/14/04
Radio version: 1.14.00
Protocol version: 1337.24
ExtROM version: (this has always been blank even prior to upgrading)
Thanks in advance for some input.

Don't be serious.
Firstly,you need to make sure that sound problem occur with ringtone only
What about system sound ? if it's fine, problem must be in ringtone only.
If it's ringtone problem, you need to check your Ext ROM about MIDI.cab file(use extended ROM viewer or extended ROM unlocker)
If it doesn't have MIDI.cab, try to use my attach file.
Secondly, if problem not occur only ringtone, try to flash ROM again.
If you still need radio ROM 1.18, you can use search to find radio1.18 posted by mamaich.
or just simply you may try flash with ROM 2.06 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13588&start=0 (look at mamaich comment, he provides ROM 2.06 file)
Hope you can fix this problem.

Nope not the ring tone. System sound works fine and can test ring tones in the Phone utility. All sounds work as expected with the exception of course of the phone ringing when a call is received.
What's odd is I can hear in my BT Jabra 250 headset the ringing to answer it but the phone never rings or vibrates. I also get a notification that I missed a call but once again never a ring or vibrate.
Tried reflashing the ROM via Sin's setup twice already but to no avail. My unit now shows but the problem is still there.
ROM version: 2.06.00WWE
ROM date: 06/14/04
Radio version: 1.18.00
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExtROM version: still is blank

Are you using Wisbar Advance? There is a problem with this preventing the ring tone in SE devices.
I've also found that mine (2.06) doesn't ring while in landscape.

As a matter of fact I just upgraded to Wisbar Advance 2 (paid for it to boot) and I've noticed that if I don't exit Wisbar then I cannot rotate the screen without corrupting the screen.
I just reflashed and ring tones are working fine. I will continue installing my apps and test a call after each installation to determine the problem. But since all my apps have worked fine with the exception of WisBar then I think you hit the nail on the head.
I will install that shortly and see what results I get and report them here.
Thanks

Well after two days of reflashing my PDA and trying to narrow down the problem the good people at XDA.Developers forum suggested the problem could in fact be WisBar Advance.
How right you are. The solution after two days and half a dozen reflashes was to simply remove WisBar Advance v2 and all is well again. This after purchasing what looked to be a fine upgrade to an already outstanding program.
Problems to be aware of with Windows Mobile 2003 SE Phone Edition using WisBar Advance v2 are the following:
1/ Loss of phone ringing
2/ Corrupt screen when rotating
If those two issues can be resolved then this will again reside within my PPC. Now to work on getting a refund since this has been a nightmare that until my refund is issued is still ongoing.
