There is big problem with my XDA Exec, when I dial a tel No. it is Dailling and the Call end. The 3G sim card is work well on another mibile, and another GSM sim card is work well on the Exec, but the O2 3G sim card can not work on my Exec, could anyone give me some advice on in, thanks.
If you have a Data only plan then you may not be able to make calls. I think you need to ask O2 to activate voice calls. I have the same problem, but I only use my Exec for web & email as I don't trust it to operate as a phone!

But the problem is that the 3G sim card can be uesd on another mobile for any voice call.
I will try to ring o2 for some solution.
I have ring O2, but they can do nothing and will change another sim card for me.
The 3G sim card can be used on my Moto V3, dial and receive
The normal GSM sim card can be used on Exec, dial and receive
But the 3G sim card can not be used on the Exec, can not dial can not receive, anyone can help me with that.
Thanks in advance
mobile, which tariff/plan do you have? If you have a Data plan and you can use your 3G SIM in another 3G phone (I don't have an unlocked one that I can use) then I may have a faulty SIM as well
jah
My tariff is 200 cross network, everything is ok for last noght.
I have change the sim card with mu V3, now all working. maybe it is the problem with the 3G option
the problem was solved.
I change the network to GSM, then everything is fine. It that means there is some proble with o2 3G netword?? :?:

I just got a new XDA IIi and when I put my Orange SIM in, it does not connect to the network.
If I use a Vodaphone SIM, it connects & gets excellent signal strength. If I make a call it hangs up by itself after dialing. If I try to call it, it goes to Voicemail.
I will try an O2 SIM on the weekend to see what that does.
I used itsme's xdaunlock tool and that said it unlocked the phone but didn't change the problems described above.
Any ideas anyone?
I tried an 02 simm on the weekend and still not working. I take it into an O2 shop and ask them.
Hi there
The sim shipped with this card doesn’t allow voice calls.

Strange...

Thank you

Strange I used the SIM from my Vodafone Datacard and it works fine in my Jasjar.
I can also make voice calls, however there is a much higher charge

I have it working. Set up a new GPRS connection in settings/connections with APN=internet and username=web and password=web.
Works a treat. U in the status bar means it has detected 3G, G in the status bar means GPRS only.
Hope this helps.
Did guys have the phone part working ?
in my the phone status i get "no service" and i can't get the phone app to start....
forget the phone app, it's a data only card...

Yep i know that i just want it to check if they have the same behavior...
Are you using that sim on jasjar ?
thanks
I don't have it I'm just telling you what i've found after talking with some friends that have it (but not on a jasjar).
It all depends on if your sim card is ona data only price plan, if it is then you wont get voice calls, give vodafone customer serivces a call to confirm

I used the setting but still cannot connected, is it not working for "pay as you go" card???
Cheers,
Thoose settings are for vodafone portugal, in other countries you have to check their webpage and confirm...
In portugal pay as you go and monthly are the same settings... if you have an clubimate account you can download the settings for your operator...
I already download the settings.
I have the right configuration because it works with my regular phone sim...
But with this sim i have huge price on data trafic.
I also owna a vodafone 3g data card and have a fixed price for 10GB montly..
I just switch the sim on jasjar to the dataonly and it doesnt work....
With my regular sim it works fine....
Solved !!!
H I there Just to let you know that i upgraded to the radio 1.04.10 and the sim its working fine now.
I even can make voice calls and this should be a data only very nice...
Now i have 10GB per month on UMTS....
And using voipbuster for free calls !!!!
:lol:
Hi All,
As this was discussed a while ago can someone please confirm that I can use a Vodafone 3G Datacard simcard (data only) with my O2 XDA EXEC (currently used with a O2 simcard) ?
When Vodafone Datacard Simcard is used with XDA EXEC as well as data, can I use it :
1) to sent and receive text messages
2) Make and receive Voice calls
Of course data is the most important requirement but useful to know if I can do other things too.
Thanks.
Hi, I have a unlocked Wizard & my T-Mobile contract has just expired, I was just wondering if a 3G sim (3) would work in it as there are some cheap deals on that network? I wouldn't use it for video calls so thats not a problem.
im 99% sure they DONT! however maybe someone there can prove me wrong
I'm using a Cingular 3G SIM in my 8125 with no problems at all.

what our american brothers call a "3g" sim and what the network provider called "3" use are slightly different things.... a american 3g sim is simply a normal 128k provisioned with extra services I.e. data and video calling (this is the same way all the gsm uk networks work too) however with "3" being the first 3g only network in the world they choosed to use the next generation of sim card called a usim which don't work in lots of non 3g phones including the wizard. try googling the word "usim" to see wot I mean
Under 3's terms and conditions you are not allowed to use their sim in a 2.5g phone. If you do use one and it works, they will eventually block it and send you a new sim with a gentle reminder that you are in breach of Ts and Cs.
Cheers Chaps, 3 it isn't then!
My O2 UK 3G UMTS sim works perfectly in my Wizard.You just can`t really get the benefits from it (Faster GPRS/EDGE etc....).
I just transferred my O2 contract SIM from my Alpine (XDA2i) and the Universal (XDA Exec) is showing "Invalid or missing SIM card".
I don't know what the problem is, it shouldn't matter if the phone is locked or not (I think) as they are both from O2.
What can I do?
The old SIM should work I believe but ask customer service to send you a 3G SIM, which you will want anyway.
It seems to have fixed itself.
I do only have a normal GPRS SIM, not a 3G one - does this mean I can't video call until I get a 3G one?
Thanks.
Well if your SIM is not a 3G one, you won't get UTMS for data nor Video which needs it I believe.
Okay, thanks.
I don't think I'll bother getting a 3G SIM for a while, if the phone will still work with GPRS. I'm in no rush to video call, and another SIM will cost me £10
Hallo,
I have a world-wide gsm version of the htc Hermes. The device is simlock-free and always has been. I put the official, albeit leaked, WM6 rom on it and it works great. But: last week I switched providers (for better data plans) and here is the result:
Data connection works just fine
SMS works just fine
But, I can hardly make calls and I don't receive any. The problem is not the network, because I switched phones (I put my SIM in a €26 SamSung phone which I use when I go camping) and I receive all of the calls. When someone calls me, they hear silence for about 30 seconds and then end up with my voicemail.
Any ideas as how to solve this? Both my old and new carrier are GSM. The only difference between them is that my old carrier (Belgium, Proximus) uses has a 3G/HSPDA network whereas my new carrier (Belgium, MObile Vikings; uses the network of BASE) has an EDGE network. Both operate on Dual Band.
EDIT: Would a radio upgrade do any good? If so, any suggestion for a radio version?
Thank you!
Come on, 80 views and no reply. Someone must have had an idea!
I did a radio upgrade (1.48-> 1.50) but that didn't solve the problem. Any other ideas?
I have TyTN and similar problem. Installed WM6, and worked fine for a 6 months. Few days ago problem (Strange?) started. I have GSM signal, I can make calls, I can receive calls from fixed lines and other GSM operators, but I can't receive calls from users of my domestic network?!? They get info Connection error? Please, HELP.
Also, when I ask request service for Call Barring I get info "Can't read specified service..."
Change the Sim
Long shot but have either of you thought to get a new sim from your current provider (port your number across if necessary) and see if that works?

I've changed SIM card, it's still same problem! But, with a SIM card of other mobile operators I have no problem.

Sounds like a problem that's related to the network provider you are using. Have you chased down their technical dept for help? All else fails, move providers.
Once had a problem where I could not get mobile signals at home but could everywhere else. Turned out my service provider had issues with broadcasts to the cell near me.
They fixed it and gave me my charges back equal to the time the system had been out.
Good luck with it.
