I booted up my xv6700 and says Radio = None when Verizon bootscreen comes up. Once phone is fully booted there is no phone function. How do I fix this?

Get a radio ROM and flash that to your phone. There is one floating around here that is version 1.27. I use it on my phone and have had no problems with it. If your not comfrotable doing that then just reflash the released Verizon ROM and you should be good to go.

At this point your phone may be screwed. If you have a replacement plan, you should be able to just get it swapped out, if it's under regular warranty you should be ok as well, if you don't have either one you probably will need to send it to utstarcom for service

You did as in you flashed to the stock ROM, or you flashed the radio ROM?

If it is just a problem with getting the radio rom on the device there are a few threads that discuss this in detail.

Here are a couple. Just do a search for "radio" > How to: get your Radio Back!

& Radio Dead?

If it is a hardware issue you will have to send it in for service. I had this problem a few weeks back and they had to replace the main board in my 6700. The radio would just come and go. I could get the radio rom to reload after messing with it for a while and then it would just quit again. Since the repair I have not had one single problem. UTStarCom only had my 6700 for 2 weeks and did not charge me for the repair because my 6700 wasn't more than a year old.

Any idea how much if you are not under warranty?

Sure, you can gamble and get another 'ebay' phone so get one from your provider. A GOOD ebay phone is usually right at or slightly over 200 (although rarities happen).

I got this one from Verizon but I've had it longer than the one year warranty and it just started to crap out. I called the manufacturer and they tell me there is a max $75 labor fee and whatever parts are. Any idea about the radio unit. Is it attached on the main board? Is it coded w/ the esn # on it or the main board? Any info?
