Reception issues

[yman11]

Hi everyone :)

I'm using Singtel ROM version 1.31.871.14 with Radio version 1.58.16.27, and I have complaints from people who said they called me but I never see a missed call on my Touch Dual device.

Did anyone suffer same problem?
Do I need to update the ROM or Radio version ? if yes, which version should I use ?

try this changing your network type to GSM

settings > phone > band

when your device is online with gprs you will not receive calls.

changing to gsm will make it worse...

I have a same problem.
Here in my house where I should have full reception, I have only 2 lines and it falls to 0 from time to time.

Does anyone know anything about it? Is it radio rom problem or?

I also would like to know which radio rom gives the best reception - if not the default one delivered onto your phone.

My info - T-Mobile branded HTC Touch Dual (named Touch Plus by T-Mobile).
Operator - T-Mobile
Country - Netherlands.

Very poor reception, also when only GSM Band selected. Phone is now in for repair by T-Mobile - i think it has an antenna problem but could not get my finger at it.

Anyone any info to lighten things up ?
Would be highly appr. :cool:

I don't believe that the above is correct. As far as I am aware, calls are independent from data. I have GPRS connected all of the time, and can still send and receive calls.

Data and calling use and not independant - when you make a call notice that your GPRS/HSDPA connection drops and then restarts when you end the call. Texts are not affected as you can send/receive texts in mid-call as well as during a data connection.
