I have a R520m and I have the same problem. Beside this yesterday I had an opportunity to test this bug. I have a GPRS too but I was using "GSM only" setting. I wanted from my friend to call me and he couldn't reach me(even in gsm only setting). And then I tried to make a call but also my phone couldn't connect.

Another issue is my GSM operator is new one(TR AYCELL 1800MHZ) and GPRS signal is going and coming all the time. Sometimes my phone get disconnected from service. And it writes "WRONG PHONE" where the GSM opertors name is written. As soon as I restart my phone it works normally. This happens when "GPRS signal is present but not avaliable for connection" indicator is on. And when I restart phone "GPRS signal is present and available for connection" indicator comes. Briefly i thing when the GPRS signal comes back this thing happens.

It could be a network problem. I have been testing GPRS for 3 years and I have seen alot of strange behaviours. The first thing that you should always do is to upgrade you mobile to the latest software. If it still does not work you should contact you operator. It is a big chance that the are aware of the problem.

One common problem is that moste operators are not using the latest software from the network vendors and that is because upgrades costa alot of money. I still get reports from operators about known network related buggs that have been fixed, but they have not upgraded the software.

But it can also be a bug in the mobil software and the best thing is to report it to your operator. And if it is a common problem, be sure that the will put the flame on the mobile vendors ass

As some1 here said earlier, he has two sims at 2 diff#rent operators.with one is ok, with the other he gets this kind of problem.this thing u r talking about is an OPERATOR problem.The reason is very simple: one cell ( a zone covered by one gsm antenna) can hold NO MORE than 24 (or so!) simultanous calls) a 25th call beeing initiated would get " the number u have called is out of reached or the phone is closed)...that#s exactly what u said here.I know all this by working with an gsm operator here.this is not a national problem, but a gsm problem and there's a solution: the reorientation of the gsm antenna but the operator usually doesn't aknowledege the problem:))
that's the problem in 2 words.I hate to see ppl that doesnt know what are they talking about posting here a lot of crap...take care now,bye!

I have had my t68 for about 2 years. Had my orange chip in there for 1.5 years and worked just fine. I then put a vodafone chip in there for approx 6 months - that also worked fine. Now when ever i put my orange chip back in there, it doesnt seem to pick up any reception. Yet the vodafone works fine! None of the orange chips in the family seem to work. Oh yeah - it cant be a problem with the orange chips because firstly ive tried it with many orange chips and secondly when i put the orange chip in another brand of phone (e.g nokia) - it works fine. The phone was bought as an offline handset, so it shouldnt be restricted - besides, my orange chip worked fine in it for over a year.

This is really doin my head in. Can anyone shed some light on this problem????
