well they moved one of the registers in 5.0
you probably have the modem set for Q4 which will fight with getty make Q6
ala ATQ6......&W
also register S53 is S131 in 5.0
so  if your setting S53 ( to track DCD) your modem just eats the instruction
and tries to force DCD true!!!!
so you can call out but not in
hope this helps
this drove me crazy for 2 weeks	 till I found out that S53 does not exist
