Guest bosozoku Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 dear all, My Telstra branded HTC Desire 8183 died out of nowhere. Here's what I did: Rooted with R5 MCR 3.1 ROM (custom kitchen with A2SD+) and r17 froyo rom (mostly MCR3.1) everything went well, and i was happy with it for 2 weeks (blasting fast HSDPA speed and runs perfectly fine) i noticed the signal strength was really low two days ago, i thought it was my area having service outage. (called and confirmed) I had my girlfriend's Nexus One AT&T version side by side she's getting full bars. now the phone will show Emergency Call Only all the time, sometimes even with signal, i wont be able to use the data connection (it's show H, but cant even load google.com with the browser) Diagnostics that i had done: unroot with generic WWE rom with goldcard (since the telstra rom that people posted on here have 0.75 bootloader and mine is 0.8 so i can only use 1.21 generic WWE rom) root again with R5 method update radio install MCR 3.1 again replaced my sim card at AT&T store just to make sure called AT&T to inquire about service outage none of them works, now i'm stuck with a phone that doesnt make phone calls and data connection. did i do anything wrong that mess up the radio of the phone? are these rooting guide and custom rom don't support 8183? please help me! i really like this phone and it's such a waste to let it sit there ;) :( best regards, ted
