Hi guys, after browsing through this forum I unlocked my xda 2 (many thanks) and have now tried my 3g sim card in the phone and it works fine. So far as I understand, I will effectively have no on air content e.g. gprs connection, gps wap, or any of the 3g stuff. Can I do either of these things: alter the gprs settings so they work with 3g... or using pocket internet explorer, dial up to a provider such as freeserve...
Many thanks,
JB
sure
just get 3g's
access point name
for their wap, grps and mms service
add them to your connections in settings and
maybe get the login and pass if 3g use that and you are set
speaking of that, since i am using 3g in australia, and while using the sim card on gsm phones, it is roaming on vodafone network.
does that mean if i have voda's wap, gprs config, i can use the gprs service?

Jim: i am new to 3G, are you saying that xda2 can support 3G and how does this differ from the norm GSM. Currently, i am on GPRS with GSM and does 3G works this differently. Thanks.
3g(UTMS) is the name of the 3th generation of mobil phoning
xda1 and 2 do not! support 3g you need a speciel 3g console to use 3g
it give a better bandwidth and they push it with video phoning

I unlocked my xda II with the software available on this forum. I then simply put the 3G simcard in the phone and it worked... comes up with the O2 network. However Three have now said that they have built in measures to stop this working now.... although I'm not sure whether this is true or not (I've tried 3 3g simcards in my unlocked xda2 and they all work and two of them are less than three weeks old). Now I've never heard of it happening to an XDA 2 before, but there are rumour that putting the three simcard into a 2 or 2.5g phone can physically damage it. Anyway, I've had no problem, so give it a try if you feel brave (I take no responsibility ). (BTW you don't get 3G content... and I couldn't get GPRS working! so its a phone only).
Cheers,
Jim

only way i can think of is getting the xda2 backpack which have a cf
slot and get that UTMS /3G cf card and use that

I need to set up a Softbank X01HT for a customer who needs to be able to make video calls here on the Rogers network. I know this is capable with the HTC tyTn as i have done it in the past. My question is....on most sites i can find, it says the X01HT only suports UMTS. On these same sites, they say that the TyTn supports HSDPA (which i know Rogers uses in Canada). If i put all the correct settings into the Softbank, can it access the Rogers HSDPA network and make video calls (Rogers is currently running on HSDPA 1900)?? Because as im aware, UMTS runs on 2100mhz, and we dont have that frequency here in Canada. Or.....do i need to flash this Softbank with an HTC TyTn ROM in order to enable HSDPA??? OR...is there a .cab file that i need to install in order to enable 1900mhz/850mhz HSDPA???
Hi all
I use a T-mobile Vario II (HTC TyTN), unlocked and with the new dutch Windows Mobile 6.
With a sim of Tmobile i get instantly a UMTS-connection.
But: when i put in a different sim, i only can connect to GPRS.
The phone refuses to switch to 3G.
The sim is 3G-enabled (in my laptop-modem UMTS works fine), and the connection settings are OK.
Anyone know about this problem?
(I have to add: the phone is constantly in Roaming-mode, because the network-sim is from "Telfort" wich uses the dutch network "KPN"... does this have to do with not getting a UMTS connection??? Or is it a known problem in my WM6-version (Dutch) ???
I have to add:
Does it have to do with the HTC wanting to have a usim, for connecting to UMTS?
Because i believe my provider (Telfort - NL) does not have Usim (although they sell high-speed mobile data-subscriptions)
UMTS works
Hi,
I am a Telfort customer. UMTS is working at my TyTN, but...
It is NOT working on my wife's P3600. Strange thing.
I have the same issue,
On Telfort_NL only GPRS. Did you solve your problem?
Hi I have the unlocked version of the treo pro and i was wondering if the internet service will work with the pro? and should i get a 3g sim card?
any info regarding what web package I should get would be helpful
Thanks In Advance
Your question is so --- basic, that I am not sure I understand it. Why would internet NOT work on your device?
What T-mo are you talking about? In the Netherlands (and elsewhere in Europe) the Pro runs on T-mo 3G. I just returned from the US and there I got Edge only (I think the Pro does not support T-mo USA's 3G band).
Not sure if that answered your question, but hope it helped. A bit.
Yes thanks, I heard that the pro doesn't work on t-mobile's 3g network so now I know which plan to add
Hi guys,
I own a 32B HTC Magic (from Vodafone Germany), and have been able to use my Virgin Mobile (Australia) SIM card, but have only 1 issue, I can't seem to get 3G working.
I know I have a 3G capable SIM, because it has been used on a Nokia 6110 Navigator at full HSDPA speeds. I'm curious, is there a strange lock that ensures that I can only access 2G and WLAN networks? Is there a work-around that I need to sort out to get access to 3G?
Thank you
