"No GSM" on boot screen?

[BeyondtheTech]

How about this weird phenomenon on my Qtek 9000...

Sometimes when I have absolutely no radio signal (i.e. in an elevator, basement, etc.) and I perform a soft-reset, my Qtek 9000's splash screen and diagnostics say "No GSM" instead of the radio and protocol versions. And by the time I'm booted into the device properly and have a proper signal, I go to the Device Information page and those fields for Radio and Protocol are empty, and my IMEI is also blank...

Just seems to be a "cosmetic" issue, but it does concern me...

Please tell me I'm not the only one...

actually I get the 'no GSM' notification when I do a soft-reset on my xda Exec too; but in my case I know for sure that it didn't correlate with circumstances where there was no reception,
when I did the soft-reset.
It seems as if it happens intermitedly and randomally with no obvious reason.

Regarding the IMEI disappearing: I only saw it happening once, by chance - as I had no reason to check this phenomena before - so I cannot say for sure if it is related (at least in my device).


will keep you posted if I come across this again.
By the way I saw you had another posting regarding this phenomena: about the disappearance of WiFi (WEP) definitions, etc...
Do you theorise that the effect of this phenomena extend even beyond that?

i also did encounter this problem b4, can't open my contacts, no radio, couldn't key-in my pin code...

the solution that i tried is flash my radio rom with the shipped XDA Exec rom....solves everything..

mee too ...have to unplug and plug again my SIM into the 9000 to make the "GSM" version to appear on the splash screen

Perhaps I have a bad SIM then? I don't know...
