I'm having a really big problem with my HTC Touch... It comes up with "No Radio..."

[McFester]

Okaayyy... Now I did a manual restore.
Hmm. Still not doing anything.
What is a radio, anyways? How could I have damaged it?!

I like that it's at least acting differently, though.. That's a good sign...

I think it's all a conspiracy by someone at myspace to keep guys like us from getting laid!

Wow! This thread went off-topic didn't it!?
LOL!

Bummer!
Sounds like you might be due for a new phone. RIP
The radio is the transmit/receive part of your device. Basically the phone part.
So: no radio-no connection to the cell tower-no phone.

A long story short, a radio is what enables the phone to receive the signal from the towers. Without a radio you can't get calls, texts, gps, data connection, etc etc.
And I have no idea how you could damage it.
Do you have insurance on the phone by chance?

Shoot... I can't get a new phone. xX; Those like, cost money. Haha.

It better decide to start working soon.

No. My stupid deadbeat father figure gave me it. It was his old one and I loved it to death until this. But I'm sure HE had some sort of warranty a while back, but it's pretty old, and I'm sure that's expired. And as far as insurance, I have no idea.

Sounds like you love your dad alot.

And I hope it decides to work, let me know if it decides to work or not.
Maybe try taking the battery out for the night,
and then re-flashing the phone a time or two tomorrow.

I agree though, that phone was pretty cool.
I like how much there is to mod on the thing.
but I've moved up in the world to a TP.

Well, you could try to take it to a repair center. You could have a bad connection somewhere inside. The phone, I mean! LOL!
If you do get a new one you can usually get a pretty good deal if you commit to a two year contract. That is, if you don't mind signing a contract.
Too bad if it's dead though. I think the Touch is one of the better phones HTC has made. It has been good to me.

Oh, yes, I so do. <3 Haha.

Me too.. I suppose that's what I'll do. Nothing to lose, I guess, right?

Meh. I'm going to be really sad when my phone doesn't work ever again. X.x
