Guest wseed Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Help! My Diamond has lost it's sparkle. I have no signal just an ! next to the antenna logo. It's not network coverage as I've tried another phone with my 3 sim and my vodafone sim in the diamond and no signal with either network, although I get a message that I need to update the settings for this network. I have tried reflashing the origional vodafone rom 1.93.161.2 and reflashing the radio to 1.00.25.05 and now 1.00.25.06 none of which get me a signal. If I do a manual search for a network the phone finds vodafone, o2, orange, 3 and t-mobile but none give me a signal :-( any help I've only had the phone for a couple of weeks after buying it new off ebay.
Guest andybarker Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Not what you want to hear, but by the sound of it the phone has a physical fault. You have done all the tests I can think of, and I'd be calling the supplier now.

The fact that it seems to be able to find networks, but can't connect suggests the IMEI number may be being blocked. Whichever, you certainly need to speak to the mobile operator to clarify why it won't connect.

Hmm thanks I did wonder ;) after having a few bad purchases on ebay I've contacted the seller to see what they say re it being faulty
Guest wseed Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 Well I called Vodafone today and checked if it was on the stolen blacklist and they say not so I guess it's faulty. Have had a reply from the seller who sounds reasonable so my faith in ebay is semi restored. I'm going to take it into a vodafone store first to see if they can do anything for me.
Guest jimbouk Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 Sounds like its sim locked! Try someone orange sim in it.
