Vodacom & TyTn II Radio/ROM

[hexa]

I have a strange problem with my TyTn II (brought over from Vodafone UK) and now trying to run on Vodacom in SA.

Everytime I hang up a call the connection status changes from EDGE to 3G and then I get "No Service"! It re-connects about 5 mins later but sometimes it only says it is "connected" but I can't receive calls or make calls.

I'm running one of the HyperDragon III ROM's (stunning ROM) and I have tried almost all the radio upgrades out there.

Does anybody have the same prob?
Or could any south africans not experiencing any problems using the TyTn II on Vodacom Network perhaps let me know what their set-up, ROM and Radio software versions are.

Much appreciated.

Thanks

Currently:
TyTn II
ROM: HD_III_Portege WWE (3.sj.hd.03)
Radio: 1.65.17.56

have you tried turning off the 3g with the comm manager? try making a call that way and see what happens

Have you tried asking this question in the hyperdragon thread in case it is rom related? If not you need to do so or try to flash another rom to your phone and see if you still get the same problem. If you think it was a radio problem you could ask in the radio thread which is very informative.

I've reverted back to the latest HTC Rom. Had little problems with almost all the custom ROMs.

hi hexa
I had the same problem. And also broke the phone from frustration.

Last week i did a sim card swap. my old sim card was 2+ years old and...

everything is fixed! no more issues, no more "no service", no more dropped calls. the phone is much faster as well.

i use a kaiser diamond rom and always run fring. no more connection issues!

Hey tpiece,

That's interesting. My sim is also about 2years old by now..
I'll see what a sim card upgrade does to the phone.

Thanks!

Cheers

well changes are that this is the problem. If your sim is that old, changes areit is a 2G sim, not 3G hance the problem you can when trying to connect to 3G. First thing i did when getting my tytn II was a sim swap

I am running the latest HTC WM 6.1 from HTC site, Europe, and have not had any problems with Vodacom.
I think your problem could be related to "tower hand-overs".
I used to experience this with my old TyTN on cooked ROMS.
I reverted back to the OEM version of WM 6.1 and all the problems were resolved.
I know a while back even Leaf had radio problems on WM 6
