No this doesn't mean you have to throw your phone out. You just have to be a little more patient.
The people who use this forum aren't all from the same timezone and don't all have the ability to read this from work so it may take a couple of days to get a response.
I haven't done what you have some unable to help. Just don't get despondant that have you haven't had a response yet.
I've heard mixed reports of the 1.41 radio - some good and some bad. I tried 1.41 but eventually went back to the 1.38 radio because it is the most stable in many of the countries I work in. I didn't use the 1.41 radio in Poland but did have problems with it in Czech republic which is why I downgraded.
There are reports of dropped calls for this radio in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303378 so it may be a good idea for you to read through that.
Personally, I'd drop down to radio 1.38.00.10 - get it here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms,
BUT before you change the radio, make sure you have Hard-SPL 2.10 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722 because this will help you recover your phone if something goes wrong.
It's still the same my phone can't make a call always drop after few seconds, i change ratio on 1.38.00.10 and 1.38.00.01 latest UK because I'm in Scotland right now and still is the same, meaby there is a chane to clean everything and upload on my spv again, if yes please for a tip how to do thant, or any difrend idea? Please help me because i start losing my mind and i have latest hard SPL by the way.And alsow i have reception on my phone everything sims ok but i can't make a call.

Hi der_tiger,,, I've been playing about with black Dymond and various Radios in Scotland with varing results.. IMHO generally all the 1.4# radio Roms had issues with missing calls dropping radio signals etc.. I've reverted back to 1.38.00.10 as it seams the most stable for us in jock-land.
Once you've reflashed your rom I would recommend you reflash black Dymond, I always get a more stable system by reflashing the System ROM "AFTER" i change the Radio rom.....not sure why.
Oh one other thing I noticed, this might just be an Orange thing, but If I manualy select the network ie in my case Orange rather than the phone Auto selecting networks I don't get any issues with signal drop-outs !!!! go figure !!
anyway hope this works for you too
Hi it's me again i have big favor to you mates. Can someone may send me on my e-mail [email protected] his own rom an configs from SPV M3100 with working in UK, please because i try everything and my phone still don't wand make a call.
Ok, so I just went back to TMO service in the US (after being on Fido in canada) and people are having serious issues trying to call me. Sometimes, it tells them the number is unavalible, sometimes it rings through to VM without me hearing a ring at all...etc.
My question is this:
Is this a TMO service issue or my radio rom/phone?
I have good to full signal on my MDA, I'm using WM6 (1.7 Reload), with my old 2.25 Radio GSM ROM, I can call out just fine and it sounds good (as does a incoming call if it actually makes it through), and it worked great in Canada (different WM5 but same radio).
t's your radio ROM version. Try either 2.19.11 or 2.69.11 and the problems should stop. Personally I use 2.69.11 because it seems to get better reception than 2.19.11.
P.S. I just answered this same question from someone in this same forum 2 posts up so I just copied and pasted the answer again.
Thanks! I'll go look for the Radio ROM now. Cheers!
No problem. If you haven't found the Radio ROMs check the wizard wiki, most of them are there.
I have a Herm100 device (JASJAM) with a very big problem in it's GSM module.
it works only if the signal strength is quite well. may be a 100 meters away from a Mobile BTS. I upgraded the radio rom several times but didn't help at all . Any body knows what the problem might be?
thanks
Please!!!!!!!!
No one can help me with this problem?
where can I buy a board for my JASJAM?
sounds like a hardware fault , antenna not working , dry solder joint?
Were you using 1.54 radio roms as there has been gsm issues with signal using those, I myself have had issues.
I had that problem with many radio ROMs , actually with all I upgraded to including ROM 1.54.
It's not a ROM problem. I also used FieldTest.exe on the device, the result was really confusing! FieldTest shows the signal as strong as other cell phones but I can not make any incoming or outgoing call. so it may not be an antenna problem since the receiver works well.
anyway, is it possible to find a board?
Not a hardware problem
Dear every one!
Following the previous posts, I have to announce that I got my jasjam for repair. they examined it's mother board and told me that there is nothing wrong with the antenna circuits and other hardware issues on my cell phone. So it should be a software problem. is there any suggestion for this? please help me!
What country, what is the radio rom your carrier uses?
These are important to tell so we can help.
The radio rom doesn't need to be upgraded to the latest to work best where you are. It COULD be causing issues if your carrier doesn't like it. Can only suggest to find out what they are using and flash to that..
Cheers...
Any Idea
I'm from Iran. I tried many radio roms
current specifications are:
WM5
ROM Version: 1.31.305.2
Radio ROM Version: 1.38.30.10
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.11
Radio BootLoader Version: 1.0108
Does any one know how to downgrade the radio bootloader
Thanks!
UPDATE!!
It seems that a solution for the problems has been found for:
- Reception difficulties
- BAD gsm performance
- No reception on the phone

Hi guys,
after upgrading my Polaris from the default supplied rom 1.58.21.23 to the latest 1.64.08.21, I have no reception in my house and even difficult reception on the street.
I reversed back to version 1.58.21.23, but even then, still have issues with reception.
Does anybody have the same problem, or had the same problem and find a fix?
Rroet
Hello,
I do have the same problem, and got it on the same way as you did?
could someone please help us?
Do you have the same difficulty as I do:
I've followed the procedures as described in manuals everywhere:
- remove the memory card
- be happily synced
- start app
- device goes into the tricolor screen
- replug the usb as described on the polaris screen
- Flashing startssss.... goes... goes...
- HANGS at 99%
- Have to do recovery procedure as shown on screen.
- Flashing procedure starts second time
- hits 100%
- Now i've got a bad reception? On my previous polaris (replaced due to a phonespeaker defect) had 2 bars even after upgrading. My new Polaris doesn't have any bars after I upgraded (It did have 2 bars before upgrading)
Any expert here with information?
I'm having the same issue, by upgrading RADIO 1.58.21.23 to the latest 1.64.08.21 I got weak signal on GSM. Two bars on signal icon on the top near the BTS.
I'm using BEPE 0.67 ROM with WM 6.1, downgrading the RADIO doesn't help. I have searched thru this forum and didn't find any relevant solution
I was having the same problem with you. I have tried everything including flashing every rom/radio available and performing hard resets at every stage. Unfortunately, in the end I had to get my cruise replaced.
These are my original Cruise details, just to see if there is anything in common:
HK Traditional Chinese HTC Cruise
1.27.832.1. CHT
01/10/08
1.58.21.23
25.65.30.04H
Very interesting issue
I read this several times in different threads now.
Fortunately myself doesn't suffer this issue and i have
also upgraded to 1.64.08.21. Lucky one.
Maybe one should start a poll about this
Would be nice to know the results.

I have this issue too after Hard-SPL and ASerg Rom, I have problems in o2 German network... very weak signalstrength 1/4 or mostly 0/4 (no network, denied).... i tried original radio 1.58.21.23 and 1.64.08.21 any1 know what could have happened? can a rom upgrade damage the radio hardware in any way? would be hard to believe... with german's BASE i have at least from 2/4 to 4/4 signal strength and sometimes I even get 3G... in my old o2 orbit (artemis) everything is at max strength
I have the same problem after flashing the 1.64.08.21 radio. Is there no solution?
I guess I am lucky, but with 1.64.08.21 and Bepe's 0.67 ROM I don't have any problems. There is no change at all. Signalstrength is the same, 3G is working fine.
1.64.08.21 and Bepe's 0.67 ROM
Me too
I have the o2 orbit 2 (POLA200)

Strange, I'm using also 1.64.08.21 and it's working like a charm... I do have another network provider (KPN, not t-mobile). Have 4 bars reception... Never had real problems with the reception too...
POLA100 (Touch cruise). Only my flash of radio succeeded in 1 time (not had to reboot before hitting the 100%). Also The Netherlands, so it doesn't seem to be country bounded.
Does it find your network? (Menu => settings => Phone (on personal tab)) then choose tab Network.
Current network: T-mobile
Network selection: Automatic
You can try Find Netwok over there, or Set network. Please also check the tab "Band", should be on Auto (both options).
My problem is when I manually check networks, I can find KPN NL and Orange NL everywhere, but not T-Mobile or Vodafone.. whilest on my wife's Vox I have 3 bars of network, on my N73 (nokia) I have 3-4 bars as well.
VERY ODD!
is it possible radio of pola100 and pola200 are different, even they share the same version number?

Could be, but then again, Rroet and I are having the same devices (pola100), are living in the same country, having the same radio version (the 1.64.08.21), the only difference is that he has another provider (which I can find if I search for networks)

In June I will switch network (to Vodafone)... I hope it all keeps working... Really strange that you can't find your network anymore. If I scan for networks I see them all (also Vodafone and T-Mobile).
(Think you've allready done this) but what will happen if you give your device a hard reset, or flash Windows Mobile again to your mobile... This because I'm having the same device, can find your network and having the same radio version.
hi there!
I unfortunately got the same issue.
I got a XDA Orbit 2 from O2 Germany. Did the hardspl unlock(used the tool from olipro) after that i flashed the bepe 0.67 premium bepe rom.
Right now my orbit is disconnected most of the time, or has real bad signal strength. It would be very great if this can be fixed.
Greets
EDIT:
flashed the 1.64.08.21 got the same prob.
Got another orbit2 with everything in original delivery state. is there a possibility to "clone" the device back to original state?
I got very bad reception when update radio 1.64.08.21 . it frequenly lost connection when I got phone call , tried to downgrade and no result
I have vodafone simcard and now I must force to swich to 3g connection to make a phone call . when Iam on gsm I conldnot make any phone call at all , I am now just wait and see someone smart to show me how to correct this trouble
the phone work on my 3 sim but it is not as good as it was before
To make it complete: I have the O2 Orbit 2 (german) (POLA200) and I
have ugraded to the 1.64.08.21 without glitches (worked at first time,
did it through bootloader mode) and it is working with the same (good)
reception as it did before (phuuuh). Maybe it has something to do with
the flash problems at first time, which some users had. Could someone
sort it out? It's really goring, that even (successful) backflash to the stock
radio does not seem to fix the issue like the Poll indicates
Olioaglio
Edit: using Bepe 0.64 GER Opera with the Orbit2 ATM.
Edit2: Thought it might be a good idea to crosslink this thread to the
Polaris Radio ROMs thread to get things together.
What about the IMEI number btw?
I don't know if this is what happens by default, but my IMEI number is 2 digits longer in the software, then it is in the hardware:
example of my hardware IMEI: 123
in software it reads 12301
Does this matter in any way?
Interesting stuff... as Olioaglio said maybe there´s a relation to how it was flashed. If it was clean install or the process had to be repeated. Can anyone with this problem report back on this issue. I tried the new radio here in Spain but I went back to the stock radio as it seemed to have a better reception and battery life. I must admit I´m rather cautious about trying different radios as I fried my Hermes due to the radio and now it can´t connect at all.
I've had no problems/glitches during the flash process but I have the same reception problems as everyone else. Even using a friend's SIM with a different carrier made no difference in reception.
Hi Folks
bought a charmer off ebay that worked but had an old rom on so i have put the latest image. It works fine as a pda but the radio will not work. I get full strength signal but immediately disconnects when i make a call and i cannot receive either. Does this sound like a fault with the phone?
The original radio on it did work but did peculiar things like sms me a dialling code upon reset.
The GPRS is fine as i can surf the net.
I have also upgraded to WM6 to try something else but again everything fine apart from the radio.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
thanks
Martin
Simply try a littlebit older RadioROM. I think you can get it at Prophet's wiki.
If I'm wrong please tell it to me!!!
Sounds like a hardware problem to me.
It can be a hardware problem. But because he can browse the web and the original radio rom was working (OK a littlebit strange he says) I think it is software. He can't do much wrong if he trys a littlebit older radio rom and if that doesn't work it is a hardware problem. Try the older radio rom and tell us if it works.
