Radio / No signal Problem

[biscuitboy]

Hi guys,

My polaris randomly decided to stop recieving a signal the other day,

it still recieves GPRS data, but no GSM signal, no matter which network etc I select. (No Service Icon.)

First I tried different simcards etc in the phone but this didnt work, I then swapped over the board of the phone, thinking this must solve the problem but it hasnt.. (different Rom, Radio aswell)

Same as before the phone recieves a GPRS signal but no gsm signal. Just the exclamation mark next to the signal meter...

I also tried updating both the ROM and radio on the phone, and the board that I swapped in was from another polaris I had with a cracked screen that was working fine before...

( I used, outer casings from the suspected broken radio phone and the board from the cracked screen phone which had no reception problems.)

What could be the problem guys? Which parts of the phone affect the signal???

( The phone is actually an orbit 2, I have had it running for over a year now on the Mamine rom, and unlocked with Olipro and never had a problem, it also doesnt work with an O2 sim incase anyone suggested it was simlocked or something.)

Cheers,

Dan.

were you moving around? could always be a carrier problem....
if gprs is working ok it's doubtful to be radio rom/hardware

Yeah, it is the same everywhere, just the noservice notification.

Other phones work fine, so def a prob with the phone...

Could O2 have locked the phone for some reason?? It was purchased via ebay, could it have been stolen or something? Would it have had 2 have an O2 signal for O2 to block the phone??

Cheers...

I have a same problem. Firstly, when i turn on my HTC TOUCH CRUISE. It says, no network, than after 5mins, it says, no sim card inserted. Can anyone help me what's the problem?

This problem seems to be popping up a bit around the forum...

Is it with O2 Orbit 2's only?? Could O2 have sent something out blocking some of the handsets via the imei or something?

Is there a solution??

I also have strange problems. My Cruise dropped on the floor on a skiing trip last March, and since than it has strange network problems.

It mostly says 'No service', but sometimes (randamly) it says something like 'Searching...', 'Denied,Searching...'

I'm not sure if I translated this correctly, I have a Dutch version of the standard 6.1 ROM. I hard reset, re-flashed to original firmware RUU_Polaris_HTC_NLD_3.13.404.0_radio_sign_25.85.30 .07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe

Since this afternoon it is not connecting at all. No reception at all.

My provider is the Dutch one Vodafone (it shoud say '3G Vodafone NL'). Funny is that the those items are unchecked in the network selection (phone --> network --> select networks), but that seems to be the case with other users as well.

Does anyone has a clue?

Greetings,
Murwin.

My Polaris randomly goes offline and gives the ! mark next to the signal meter. I have tried changing Radio ROM and it makes not difference. I think the problem is with the SIM Card reader. I put some sponge tape over the top of the SIM Card reader so it puts even downward pressure on it and the problem is almost fixed. It still randomly goes offline, but only once a day now. If anyone has had any better luck, please post the solution here.

Thanks
