Few connection issues with my brand new Desire - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Ive got a problem. My brand new Desire shows 2-3 bars of network but i cannot make calls sometimes. Text messages come like sometimes up to 3-4 hours LATE. Its frustrating. Changing Network mode didnt help. Restoring factory default setting didnt help neither. What can i do ? sometimes it works but mosty it doesnt ...
Ahh and very often when i try to send a text message i get "Unable to send text mesage...." Its like it shows i got network but i havnt :/
Please help,
Thanks

I assume your Desire is completely stock? If so, might be a service provider issue rather than a software/hardware issue

Messaging timestamp

Hey guys
I just got my DHD 2 days ago, and im loving it!
I have a little problem with the stock messaging application though. When someone sends me a message, and I reply instantly, it sometimes shows that my reply was sent before the actual message. Or it says shows that my reply was sent 1 min before the initial message that i received.
For example, I receive a message at 6:39, and i reply to it instantly, it shows that my message was sent at 6:38 therefore it shows my message above the one ive been sent. Im guessing its a time issue. Perhaps my phone is abit delayed?
Another question, Im now using SMS Pop Up, i tried Handcent and Go SMS, but didnt like them as much. I want an App that has the same iphone messaging application, like the same bubbles n push notification n all. Are there other good ones? I didnt like the pop up notification of the Handcent and GO SMS.
Sorry for the long thread. I hope you guys can enlighten me
Happens to me too.
My guess is, that the messaging application simply uses an inaccurate timestamp or simply ignores the "seconds" part of it.
So no one knows how to fix this?

The incoming sms is time stamped from the network. Ur issue probably happens because the person who messages u is on a different network that has a slightly different time. Also make sure ur time app is set to use network time. This might help.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Yeah the person is on a diff network but this didn't use to happen on my Nokia E71. Message times used to be based on my phone's time.
No other solution?
Thanks for your reply.

[Q] Signal dropping during calls

Hi guys, got a strange issue here. Whenever I dial a number the phone will ring a few times then the signal bars will jump from whatever they are on to nothing with an x and call will fail. However; the phone will still be ringing on the other persons end, and if I redial then it will jump into the call I tried to make previously. The same could happen again during the call. Strangely, this only seems to happen when I bring the phone up to my ear, if I use hands-free it only happens 1 time out of 10. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm using SuperNova Xtreme ROM, any more info needed?

Same peoblem here with stock... Heard it's a bug with proximity sensor. Does your phone drop the signal when you lock the screen?

Just checked and yes it does! Do you know of a fix?

Unfortunately, I have also read that there is no fix for that bad luck for us, I guess
Well, I've just done a quick Google and found that sometimes simply taking the back off the phone and hoovering everything out can help, as well as blowing/hoovering on the line between the earpiece and the screen. I'll try it out and post my findings.

Hey, I've managed to fix it, but only by flashing with an entirely new ROM/RUU. It's the only thing I could find to fix the issue.

When you say "does not work anymore" do you get an error of some sort? Emergency calls only?
What did you flash?
Is voice OK but not data?
Ive figured this out;
No imei
When i call *#1234# PHONE is none
And i've flashed giopro and a custom kernel from else in this forum (gio section...)
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
Btw what do you mean with voice??
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
By voice I meant just that: voice calls where you talk to someone else, the whole “Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you.” that started it all.
Did you try to unlock the phone with the stl5 method? This is the usual cause of no IMEI, and cause for replacement.
Actually i wanted to set the cpu to a higher frequency and then...
A terrible thing happend.
My phone rebooted and the sim card was not recognized anymore...
Just a normal vodafone nl simcard
Any ideas of how to get the imei code back, i've got the origional one behind the battery;
Only using this phone for about 2 months
Should i go to the vodafone store or the samsung store?

I had some of the same problem, beause the launcher lockscreen seems to override the ordinary lock screen, so the pin prompt dont show up. I went in to setings and turned my pin of, then it worket. I just for fun activated pattern. But the launcher lockscreen also skipped the pattern lock. It just showed up for two sec and then the launcher lock was on. Sorry if you dont understand what I write. Give it a try, if you not allready have tried. In cyanogen you have options to turn this off, if you use pin, password, pattern lock.
Regards
Ive got IMEI problems not launcher problems,
But still thnx

HTC one x data connection issues

Hey, I have been using HOX for a month now and noticed an unique problem.
I noticed that my phone behaves as if it doesn't have data connection even if the 3g icon is present in the status bar. No data transfer takes place even if the icon exists. Here the only option left is to restart the phone to resume data...
They typically occurs every 2 days post restart. Has anyone noticed this?

It's been appearing on Nordic countries for about a week.
I have had the same problem, after all the ROMs I've tried, after using CM10 yesterday, it was like I have a LAN connection even faster than the first time I got the phone...

Yes I have this too. Seems to only be resolved via reboot. Airplane mode on off has no effect.

Hi, I'm on orange UK too and suffer from this problem but not all the time. Though when it happens, as already stated, airplane mode on/off doesn't work. Requires a full reboot to get data connection back.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I seem to get this on Vodafone UK too, but it only seems to happen if I travel a significant distance (a long distance train journey for example). I data roamed in Europe for two weeks this month and didn't see the problem a single time. Only a reboot fixes the problem - I've tried airplane mode to reset it but it still doesn't work.

Same here in Czech rep. (Vodafone)

This problem has consistently cropped up with I was using a Battery saver app (easy battery saver, or juice defender, or...). Basically, when the data connection is controlled by the battery saver apps, the connection shows a 3G or H but no data transfer happens.
Either remove the battery saver app or don't allow it to control the data connection and this problem should not crop up again. I tested this against easy battery saver and juice defender and a another battery app (don't remember which), and on 3G as well as LAN.
Don't know if this helps in anyway or means anything, but that was happening to me with a T-Mobile unlocked Sensation while I was overseas just a week ago in Lebanon and France. Have not had the issue in the US w/ the HOX or Sensation

I've got the same issue. The connection dropped while using Facebook. It happens every two days. I'm on the Dutch Vodafone network. Only a reboot fixes the issue, airplane mode doesn't. It's getting really annoying....
Try the new 1.29.401.12 RUU if your phone is unbranded. That should help data issues.

Will this version be available OTA?
I find that with android phones, mobile data and MMS never work 100% unless using Cyanogenmod carrier APNs from here . Before using those APNs on my One X, i would randomly get my mobile data disconnecting (no signal at all) for split seconds at a time and MMS wouldn't send either.
Mobile data was also slower than it was on my Desire Z which used Cyanogenmod's APNs. Mobile data was then much faster on my One X after i corrected the APNs to the ones on that Cyanogenmod link and then MMSs started sending again. Also funnily enough, before my Desire Z used Cyanogenmod's APNs, it couldn't send MMSs either and its mobile data speeds were also very slow and inconsistent xD.
I think every android user needs to bookmark that link and then use those APNs each time they flash a new ROM as they are bulletproof. Hear me out on this one. I have tried the APNs from my carriers over the years several times and they never work as good or as correctly as the Cyanogenmod ones do. I don't know if it's just like this for me here in Australia, but i'd highly recommend using the APNs on that link anyway.

It should come to the UK eventually. It has been released as an OTA in Nordic countries.
Even i thought it was due to juice defender..so i stopped using it...but the issue still persisted!
