Problems with Sprint WORLD Unlocked Radio

[superevilllama]

Yes

After flashing the 1.96 WU radio, I am flipping back and forth to 1x and EVDO. It seems it goes from EVDO to 1X, then loses signal completely, then finally goes back to EVDO, but then eventually cycles through the same thing again.

Another issue I am having is received texts show one hour in the past. This may be a network issue, as I flashed back to stock rom and radio and had the same issue... maybe or maybe not. Is anyone else having the texting timestamp issue?

The flipping back and forth on 1x/EVDO is driving me crazy.

Additionally, and it may be unrelated, but now QuickGPS will not update as well as GPS lock works, however it does not list the sattelite count it is currently connected to, and TOMTOM will not work unless primed again.. kinda wierd

I've been running the 1.96WU radio since last night and haven't noticed any issues... however... as always, I did have to do a PRL and Profile update to stabilize things. I also went ahead and did a hard reset last night even though I probably didn't need to do so. All is running well today, and I was among those having serious issues with the 2.05WU radio.

why not just set it to CDMA only? That way it wont get a chance to search for GSM if you keep it on world mode. and no issues on battery life here using the 2.05 radio though I probobly need to run the World unlocker again since I just flashed but will do that when needed to

Nice to know they're charging money for an unlock they did not test thoroughly.

Before anyone jumps on your back, i fully agree with you. I thought it was a bad idea from day one..But any how just my opinion....But hey with a few strings attached i guess if you really need it "with a few bugs" you can get on another network.

LOL I feel The same. But is a work in progress. It working good now. the only problem i'm having is that when i get on a Tmo the phone will not remember and when i lose the signal (going into a tunnel) when i come back i have manually redo the whole thing again. I asked if anyone is having the same problem but i guess not because everyone is not saying anything about it.

nah, this radio patch is freely posted, freely downloadable if you didn't notice before.
the SIM/Sec unlocker is charged for but that's just a prerequisite to this hack that you can use for other things too.

anyway I hope your issues have been solved with new radio patch

PS: testing is hard, because we don't live in USA, and our testers who do didn't report problems originally, as apparently it is also ROM dependent / usage dependent

If you need another tester I am willing to do some leg work. My TP2 isnt my primary device so Im not worried about missing phone calls an such. ( havent unlocked sim though)

[nootrak4]

Has anyone figures out how to make the TP2 (sprint) recognize the SIM card and connect to the network automatically or at lease after you set it up the first time, The phone to reconnect to the GSM network with out having to do it all over again. If this is something that TMO SIM can’t do, but ATT SIM can, PLEASE let me know I would switch in a heartbeat as the TMO SIM I have is pre-paid.

My biggest complain is when I lose the TMO signal due to me going into a basement or under a tunnel when I get back and the phone tries to reconnect I have to redo everything all over again.

Has anyone been able to use the ATT Internet on their phone I have tried both roms and cannot get it. Keeps saying the settings are wrong.
