Yes, some other users are experiencing the same problem. When the phone goes to stand-by mode (screen off), it loses reception. When you try to turn it back on, it takes a few seconds more than usual... and when the screen comes on again you notice that there's a "cross" in the reception bar... a few seconds later, it regains reception. In my experience, it's related to the sim card. I've tried several simcards, and the problem will persist with simcards from one or two cellphone companies (I've had no problem with a 32KB simcard, but did have with a 64KB simcard). The simcard from another company won't give any problems.

My cellphone's a t5353+ 128M (single boot, WM6.5), and it has that problem you mention with certain sims (I will have to switch to the company whose sims work flawlessly with this phone) and it won't send sms properly...

Perhaps someone who speaks chinese can investigate this in the chinese forums... see if they're having the same problem, or their sims are somewhat different than ours.

Hi,

Will this continue to work for dual sim? Can you illustrate it with pictures how call and sms are handled, how do you select sim 1 or 2 etc?

Thanks

Gps breaktrough on t5388++ (wvga)

WOW, after several tips from the forum and thanks to mrnick for his tips, i finally made it...but the solution for me wasn't alu foil or any kind of software or trick... was only to change the default windows config for gps.

so...

the solution:!!!!

go to system, external gps, and change the following:

on the tab "software" set "gps port" to : com 3

on the tab "hardware" to: com 6

about the bauds, i succesfully got the fix with : 4800 but i think it should'nt be a problem with 115200, i just test the fastest speed on mine and i've got a fix in less than 10 secs!!! ..

omg im so freakin happy....more than 1 month, well since i bought it and no gps fix...

how do i detected the right parameters?, well after tryng and trying and reading and reading, i tried to detect the com port of the real gps, and i found it using a tool called SKTools, i've found that the gps port is com3, but here is something funny, if the real com port for the hardware gps is com 3, it should be com 3 for the hardware configuration on the "hardware tab", but i set it to com 6 and the software com port to com 3, ... the default config is com6 to software and no com port to hardware.

I reset the phone, to test if the speed to get a fix was the same and the results were that it took more time, the first seconds only had 1 sattelite and the sky map. OH, forgot to tell you, my first fix was while using A-GPS, but then i turn it off and test it again and the results were good, got a fix under 10 secs.

this tests were done inside my house, probably outside the results could be better, hope this can helps to others..

Is there a way to select the GSM frequency for my country on the T5388i? I can't find this setting anywhere on the phone. Some of the problems that I have are weak phone signals and very low audio.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Solonomi.com:
Try this:

With the SIM card in, go to Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> Radio Band.

That will give you several choices, including "User Config", which lets you choose only one band if you want.

Does anybody out there know if it's possible to do an SD card update on the T5388++ while using a SMART.UPR file?

I just got sent an updated rom by my supplier but it's in this format and I can't get the phone to recognise it. When I put the phone into flash mode it tells me it can't find the file. Previously when I've used this method it has been with BIN files and they always work but the UPR file doesn't. UPR is also not recognised by IDT so I can't use that method either.

I have sent a message back to the supplier to see what they come up with but if anybody has any ideas in the meantime, I'd be interested to hear them.

**EDIT**

Looks like I got sent a wrong ROM. I decompiled this file and found that the structure is the same as that of the T5388+ which is nothing like that of the T5388++. Waiting for further details back from the supplier to see if they have got access to a legitimate update for this phone.

The other roms I tried gave me various problems with slow connection to gps and sms errors etc.., when I installed the after jan 2010 Rom and the manilla 2d upgrade my phone instantly locks onto GPS signal (even indoors) and the sms works perfectly, theres a few bugs in the manila 2d like a few of the short cuts don't work, but i am happy to put up with these as they don't affect the running of the phone.

Radio ROM of T5388i with shortcomings

Hi,

I was on vacation for a week in Austria in the mountains. The new radio ROM that I downloaded from the T5388i seems to have significant reception problems (at least when roaming). I am now back to the radio ROM of the German ROM from Solonomi (radio ROM version 3-22-2010 11:47:54). Thus, the international dialing problem needs to be addressed using MagiCall.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] cybermaus:

Don't know if I'd class this as a mistake or not but on my T5388++, if I use the CALL+END+PWR sequence this puts my phone into flash mode as required by IDT and is shown with the 'Downloading' screen. For me to flash from the SD card I have to use VOL.UP+VOL.DN+PWR and this then reads the file off the SD card with a basic text screen and the phone vibrates while flashing.

Not sure if all T5388++ are the same as there are so many variants out there nowadays.

T5353++ Dual OS ROM

Hello all,

Some news on the T5353++ dual OS,

For about the last week or so, I've been testing the second version of an experimental build of Android 2.1 for this phone, and while by no means perfect, it makes a significant improvement in functionality :)

Pros:

1.Much faster,

2.Working Google apps, syncable,

3.Prettier,

4.Includes the Market,*

5.Almost completely stable.

6.As it's a single OS ROM, there's plenty of internal memory for apps storage.

Cons:

1.Video playback unstable - YouTube app faulty,

2.Allowed RAM pretty small,

3.Battery drain when out of GSM signal is very high, you just have to be vigilant and switch to 'Airplane Mode' where appropriate - same goes for Wi-Fi.

4.The timezone setting is not retained when rebooting, so defaults back to China :(

5.You get a system error on every boot, just press 'wait', and the process catches up with itself.

I've found the stability much improved by completely removing the YouTube app btw - you need to learn how to use ADB to do this.

The link: http://rapidshare.com/files/406116347/06-28-android_2.1.rar

Only 10 allowed (mirrors?)

Some notes on first run:

1.You may get an error message, press the screen just above the right button to cancel, as the screen hasn't been calibrated by this point.

2.On the next screen (after the screen cal), use the top option instead of setup wizard.

3.To change the language, press the right softkey below the Android in the setup.

4.You need a google account, as I've found no way to bypass the next section of setup without one. You then may need wi-fi to proceed, if it fails to connect via GPRS.

I read via the wonders of Google Translate that there should be a final version soon, and that the manufacturer is looking at developing Android 2.2 for this device as well - so the future looks bright!:D

NB. This ROM only has Android, and will wipe your existing WM installation, not one for the fainthearted, but fun once you fix everything - use at your own risk, good luck!

*In order to download apps, you need to run some shell commands to give a cache to download he apps to, this has to be done after every reboot:

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 rootfs /

rm -r /cache

/system/bin/ln -s /data/cache /cache

mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 rootfs /

These can be done via adb shell from your PC (adb has to be running as root - type 'adb root' then dis/reconnect the usb), or by using an app called "GScript Lite" - this requires the "superuser permissions" application, which again requires adb to install.

Info to install SU here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=521863

The benefit of using Gscript is that you can make a new script with all the commands in it, and then create a shortcut to the android desktop, so the whole procedure can be achieved in one button press.

Oh yes :), you have to create a /data/cache directory first using "adb shell mkdir /data/cache" You only have to do this once though..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] cybermaus:
Wow, thats pretty nice. Hows the various hardware behaving? You mentioned GSM and WiFi, but how about Blue, GPS, USB/Sync, Camera, Gravity etc?

GPS on the T5388++

I am certain now of the cause of the bad GPS on the T5388i and T5388++ systems.

EDIT: Never mind, Mr Nick proved below not to apply, at least to his phone.

As some may recall, I was one of the lucky ones with GPS, but others have had bad luck. Based on internal photo's on MobileUncle where I spotted the antenna with miniconnector, I was wondering before if the connector was maybe loose for some people.

Well, I had to open my phone to replace a broken touch screen, and when opening, I noticed that GPS antenna connector was indeed not properly connected! It was loose even in my phone with working GPS.

It was just loosely placed over the socket. When I pressed on it, there was a clear 'click' as you may expect when fitting these type of connectors. So it was not that its spring system was not in order. It clicked on perfectly and solidly, but before I did that, it was just lying loose against the socket.

I guess I was lucky before that the central pin made contact anyway, and for others, it may just have been lying loose just a fraction more, or even making contact intermittently.

If you dare, just open op the phone and properly fit the connector. You only need to remove the black plastic with 4 small clearly visible screws, the actual print/lcd/touch screen can stay in place, and you will not need to bother with difficult wiring, only the speaker wire. After removing the 4 screws, the black comes of pretty easy. Just fit the GPS antenna properly.

(PS: Myself, I did had to open the phone further, as I had to pry loose the print and the touch screen, but at this moment the phone is back together and working again.)
