Faulty MDA Pro on T-Mobile ???

I think i have a faulty unit because i can not connect to the internet at all (although it worked last sat morning when i got the unit but i did not try again until my number got ported)i have tried it on GSM only and checked all the settings over with the guy from T-Mobile and they are ok but if i put my sim in my Jam i get a connection with no problems.
The guy from T-Mobile says it may be beacuse i am on the fringe for UMTS reception but i get the U symbol and 4 bars on the strength meter but surely it should go on to GPRS if it can not get reception on UMTS as it would do for phone calls anyone any ideas ?

Start>Settings>Personal Tab>Phone>Band>"Select Network Type" and change to GSM (it's probably on Auto), then ok it all.
If you now connect over GPRS (which is what the above is to do - force it not to use UMTS at all), then you're ok.
Next thing is to go to a UMTS strong area, and do the settings but set back to Auto and see if u get 3G connection.
Hope it helps.

i just get the message ''warning:unable to change GSM/UMTS Band, please try again later''
thanks anyway

How to configure 3G?

Hi techies
I have recently brought a Cingular Connection with the data feature. The Data feature includes 3G service as well. However, I don't know how to configure 3G on my Imate-Jasjar. I have read at few places that there is some problem with the frequency bands in which 3G operates. So, just to add the info, I am living in washington in Redmond. Can anyone help me with this problem, How can I configure my Cingular 3G service on my Jasjar?
Thanks

As long as you have your phone settings on auto, it will automatically use 3g where it has a signal. The JasJar uses UMTS 2100, so I hope that's what is available in your area.

The Latest iMate Rom includes Operator CAB files.
You select your operation and it installs the settings for the selected operator in the Phone.
I have T-mobile NL. So by selecting it, it installed my acces point, MMS settings and GPRS Settings.
Other option is to go to the webside of your provider and find the options needed there.

I just checked the Cingular's website and found that Cingular has launched UMTS 1900 .
Is there any other way that I can get my jasjar work with UMTS 1900??
Thanks in advance

I'd like to know if anyone has 3g working on Cingular's network.
I don't think it can happen

Disallow GPRS Connections, but not UMTS

Hey all,
is there anyway of stopping wm6 from connecting to gprs other than deleting the connection?
while i'm under 3g umts coverage, i would like it to be connected as the data is free... but when out of coverage or when my hermes decides its only going to join the roaming network (where i only get gprs), i get charged data.
any ideas guys? couldn't find much in the search. must be searching for the wrong thing or there doesn't seem to be a definate answer. ie, will allow umts, but not gprs etc. most seem to disable data all together.
anyone with Three in australia will know that Telstra charge a lot for using roaming when not in 3g coverage. there must be someone out there with the same dilemma?
Cheers,
Bill

can you just force 3g band only in phone setting?

possibly. at the moment everything is set to auto. so it defaults back to gsm (telstra network) when umts is unavailable. i just dunno what setting to pick for Three's umts. even then there is only one option for UMTS only. umts(2100+850) otherwise they are paired with gsm.
Any thoughts?

Forcing 3G/HSPA on HD2?

Hello xda-developers.com,
I was wandering if it is possible to force my HD2 (running Windows Mobile 6.5) to only accept a data connection if it is 3G/HSPA instead of the normal GSM . Where I live, the connection is poor, although even when it has zero bars of reception, the connection is good and fast response through websites (latency is low on the mobile speed test).
Even though the phone thinks it's poor reception and thus switches to GSM, is there a way to block GSM and only accept a 3G/HSPA connection?
Thanks for any help,
Thazandril.
EDIT: GSM/GPRS I don't know which one it is, it just has a big G as the connection symbol, and it's terribly slow.

in my phone settings->phone->band
select your gsm/umts band.
I can choose
UMTS
and it only use 3g/hspa

Hi Rudegar,
Thank you for the fast response, however, I cannot seem to find that option anywhere in my settings. I've checked the 'connections' but can't find anything that sounds like what you have mentioned in your post.

Go to Settings -> Menu, All Settings -> Personal -> Phone
That will take you to the right area, then just have a look through those options.

Thanks a lot, cheers for the help, have a good one!
