Hello to everyone !
Ok, first of all I want to say that for years I've been reading this forum and it helped me a lot in the past, but now I have a problem I can't resolve by myself.
I have A HTC Magician PM10A that was bought many years ago in Israel from an official dealer. It worked fine back in Israel.
Now I live in Italy and the phone just doesn't find the network. Not manually, (searching and giving me an empty list), not automatically.
I tried everything. I'll write it down.
Putting back the Israeli SIM card.
Unlocking (turned out to be unlocked).
Flashing with Ctulla WM6.1 Rom (WOW!)
Flashing Radio Stacks from 1.0 to 1.13.
Flashing with Some Italian ROM (downloaded from this site).
NOTHING !
Just gives me network error, unable to register on selected network.....
But there is no network ! Just an empty list !
I wanted to install the original ROM that came with the PDA, but I don't have it.
Thank you very much !

Well, I have sad news my friend. It's the phone module that is dead. I found another XDA II mini with broken screen, changed the antenas - nothing helped. Plus I checked it in Israel again - it's dead. Well, at least I have a really nice pda :-)

Indeed it was a great device. But I checked it at my friends lab, he says that it's possible to fix it, but we have to buy some parts on ebay (i didn't really followed), and only than it might work.
It did it's job and did well. R.I.P.
btw, I am a med student, so it uses me great as a pda to all the books and other staff.

Things you should try to fix this:
Hard Resetting
Cleaning your SIM card.
Pushing the little gold connectors on the SIM slot a little bit up with a screwdriver.
Reflashing ROM.
And the last one, which fixed mine problem:
Another sim. When i tried my sim in other phones, they refused to boot, so i just tried another sim, brand new one - it worked! So ive gone to my operator to replace my SIM.

I had the same problem and accidentally fixed it.

Coulnd't get any signal after upgrading it to WinMo 6.1 ROM. I flashed it back to its original WinMo 2003 SE ROM but still couldn't received any signal.

I took SIM card out and put it in different phone (Nokia in my case). Got SIM card error massage on Nokia screen. Took it out again and cleaned it, reinserted back and it worked on Nokia. Then I was curious and tried put the SIM card back in magician. Signal was magically reappear and phone worked back to normal.

Hope this may work for you too.
