I am just wondering if I am the only one suffering from this:
As I upgraded to XDA Live 0.10 ROM, my device stopped receiving phone calls. Strange but when I switch my device off, it turns on the light for incoming call. However, nothing really happens afterwards and I get no notification that a call is coming. I am not sure but I believe that this problem did not occur before I installed the HSDPA enable CAB. I tried to uninstall it as it was also causing my device to freeze. This did not help. Would love to know if anyone had this as well.
Noticed wit ROM GPS enabled
When I use the 1.35.0.11 and I launch an application that listen the COM Port where I have mapped the "GPS" I'm not able to received phone call.
Also take car that in GPRS/Edge (NOT UMTS) if dataconnexion is "really" acive (transimitting data) you are not reachable on the GSM network
I have an application that uses GPS but it is currently off. I also use Direct Push.
ok I found the cause. It is the Hebrew add-on.

Hi there
Been browsing the forums for a while now hoping that someone else would have had this problem and there is a solution. In vain, I have started this thread.
I've been running various ROMs on my JasJam for a while now, but all of them seem to exhibit the same behaviour when using VoIP and switching between WiFi and 3G.
If I am using 3G, no problems using VoIP to make calls and I can happily toggle between "Available" and "Selected" on the Today plugin. Switch to WiFi, and everything still works as it should. Switch off WiFi, and the Today plugin changes to "searching" then after a while, "No service". Whatever I try e.g setting to "Never", disconnecting and reconnecting data etc, nothing works to get me back to making VoIP calls over 3G, except a soft reset.
I suspect there is something going on between the phone app, WiFi stack and session management, but that's the limit of my knowledge on the subject.
It would be great if there is a solution to this problem as it affects the useability of what is, otherwise, a very useful application in WM6.
Cheers

hey guys
ok so i have the TP2 running WM 6.5 professional
ROM 1.86.401.0 (67102) WWE
ROM date 25/9/2009
radio 4.49.25.17
protocol ver. 61.44tc.25.32U
my service provider is Etisalat in the UAE
the problem that im having is that when i set the BAND to AUTO, it picked up the the 3G network...but problem is that it keep shuffling between 3G and EDGE. because of that it wont recieve calls. one fix i was told was to manually select GSM BAND. the call problem was solved because of that.
but since i have done this, i been having another porblem. after using internet to say update the weather tab, i cant make or recieve call, or send sms or anything. everytime i use internet on the TP2, i have to switch to AIRPLANE MODE and then back to PHONE its driving me nuts
anyone facing the same problem? or has a fix to this?
Switching between 3G and Edge is normal, because not everywhere you have good service.
But just to make sure:
When you set band to AUTO and you are switching between 3G and Edge, can you call someone?
I had problems with my HTC Kaiser in the UAE. Etisalat and Du told me they only can provide mobile internet to BlackBerries and IPhones...
yeah, when it is switching between 3G and Edge, i cant make calls and i cant recieve calls either. they say my cell if off while its actually on

Go into the Bands page (where you manually select the bands). Press "WCDMA" to enable 3G only. That will keep you in 3G, but if you go into a non-3G area, you won't get any signal at all.
EDGE can only handle one thing at a time. If you don't have an active data connection, you can use the phone (call, SMS). If data connection is active, you can't use the phone functions. So, if you're on a webpage and someone calls you, their call won't go through.
3G allows you to use phone functions and data at the same time. So if you're on a web page and someone calls you, you can answer it.
ok that was surprisingly simple.. thanks
Edge can only handle one thing at a time? I routinely get and make calls and browse at the same time (or get emails via active outlook push connections, etc). And this is both when I'm in Edge areas (eg when I go to my cabin in Montana (heck - ANYWHERE west of Milwaukee) or when I have 3G (around here).
This does, however, appear to be a feature strictly of AT&T. But I don't believe the inability to do simultaneous data and call is a hardware or even Edge technology limitation - I believe its a network specific limitation.
Having said that, my money would be on an incorrect radio or DLL hanging around in the phone...
(Standard disclaimer: I know nothing about non-US carriers or their oddities. I reserve the right to be wrong- a right I exercise somewhat frequently )
well i upgraded to WM6.5 so the radio is the one that came with the upgrade.nothing else has been changed.
have a feeling the problem is with the phone as my pervious phone, sony ericsson's P990i had absolutely no porblems switching from data to call and back to data without having to do anything.
one thing i noted is that once i start an internet session, it keeps running unless i turn the switch to airplane mode to force a connection break.
Title says it all. When I'm talking on the phone I'm unable to use wifi data. Browsing, apps which require data, maps, nothing workings while on a call.
I am running CM6 stable but this issue has been around for a while that I can remember.
Is there a work around? Could I be doing something wrong?
Thanks
Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but as far as i'm aware you can't use data and calls at the same time unless if your using 4g, which of course MC6 doesn't yet support.

You cannot use 3g data while on a call but I cannot see why you cannot use WIFI while on a call. I will test this on Stock Rooted and let you know in a few minutes.
It must be and issue with CM6 as I am able to make a call and surf the web, access the market, etc.. using WIFI at the same time with stock rooted..

Thanks for the confirmation. I've wondered this as well but I haven't noticed any other CM6 user complain about this issue. Maybe there's something in the settings I need to enable?
Its not cm6 or whatever I am having the same issue. No email or surfing while on the phone and simultaneously connected to wifi. Like the first post "title says it all". I am on Stock sprint rom. Just updated to the 3.70, but this problem has been going on noticably for a week prior maybe longer. I was hoping the update would fix it. Any thoughts? or answer?
You can use wifi whiles on a call to browse internet and use apps that require data. I been doing so since I first got a evo months ago. I only used it on one asop rom and that's cm 6.0 rc2 it worked fine when my gf was annoying me with her boring convo lol so i put on the bluetooth headphones and acted like i was paying attention whiles i was one facebook.
When is the last time you tried? I have been trying to use it on a calls all day, with no luck. Only time Wifi connects is when I hang up.
Scenario a: Wifi is turned off; I initiate call; try to turn on Wifi; Wifi will not connect .
Scenario b: Wifi is on; I initiate call; Wifi will not allow surfing until the phone is hung up.
Also when running speed test while on phone will produce very low speeds less than 64k when my speed should be around 12mbps. Again once phone is hung up the speeds return to normal. The speeds resemble a connection that is being throttled.
Are you connected to a Bluetooth headset while in a call?
Just noticed the blue tooth issue. Thanks for the response, but what gives. Surfing used to work while on bluetooth/phone call. For a while that was my only way to listen to music through my BT headset. I had to initiate a call to voicemail and play Iheart.

Heh, it's hit and miss for me.
What i've discovered is......
-If WiFi and the Bluetooth device are connected before initiating the call, it should work fine.
-Sometimes, the Bluetooth device can be connected later, as long as WiFi is connected to a network before call is initiated.
-You can disconnect the Bluetooth device during a call, turn on speaker [or not] to continue the call, and WiFi will connect, but will probably disconnect when you reconnect the Bluetooth device.
-Using method above, you can sustain WiFi connectivity whilst Bluetooth device is connected if you start to browse a website or launch a data required app such as an IM or online radio app, then while it's in the middle of connecting to one of those, reconnect the Bluetooth device.
Lot of trouble? Hell yes. I'm not sure if this is a problem with HTC's software or a hardware problem with having WiFi/Bluetooth on the same chip.
I was about to post this question up on the Hero forum but I found this thread. I have the same problem. Wifi will connect unless on a call but......sometimes if you are already connected before initiating call wifi will stay on FOR A BIT. After a while, wifi will disconnect on its own and if you are lucky it will reconnect later on. Note this is not alway the case. It ussually stays off. I just dont understand why this happens.
This one issue - I will lose data connection even though i have 5 bars - I pop in and out of airplane mode - then have service back. It happens more than a few times a day. My G1 never had this problem. (I don't know if it happens with a voice services)
This issue happens with any program requiring a data connection. Anybody else having this problem - would it be a hardware or software thing? It is not a "deathgrip" thing - since it also happens when its sitting in my car, not in my hand.
Thank you.
Update. Changed battery manager to performance. Noticed that data was only affected. Voice calls still worked. I just want my slacker to work at night.
Well, USA or "other" phone? Reason I ask is because the USA T-Mo version has a wifi calling app that can fiddle with your "preferred network type." At any rate next time it happens you might check that setting for the heck of it. *#*#INFO#*#*, (*#*#4636#*#*). Otherwise maybe your SIM is NFG?
Got a weird problem. My lg g3's gps was working great. I've switched networks to vodafone (i'm in australia) and suddenly every time i use my gps and get an incoming phone call (sometimes even txt messages) the app i'm using (waze) just losses all gps signals. After i finish the call, 15 seconds or so, gps is back. Its frustraiting and i need to have it the way it was.
Any ideas? Tried some ntp or something like that and apps from playstore but nothing works. My lg is not rooted and i don't wish to do so.
Thanks
