How to configure 3G? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

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

umts available from cingular yet

if i got this phone for the cingular network in usa would i be able to get umts working. Is it just hte regular edge settings or gprs settings. thanks all

Cingular currently has UMTS 1900 (UMTS 850 will be added in the near future) running in certain markets. If you want to use UMTS, you would need settings other than GPRS and EDGE settings since UMTS/HSDPA is an upgrade to existing GPRS networks. You may want to ask in a Cingular-oriented forum such as the Cingular Forum over at Howard's Forums as well:

Pretty Good
I am in San Fran and I get about 828kbps when testing on www.dslreports.com
I'm using with Cingular as well. Just make sure that you upgrade your SIM card to a 3G card. It's a free, 5-minute procedure at any Cingular store.
The GPRS settings are exactly the same as they are for other devices on the Cingular network.
All this depends, of course, on your location, and whether or not the UMTS/HSDPA network is available there.

Looked at the map but it appears to be a Natl GSM Coverage map for Cingular with no way to tell if 3G/UMTS is available in a given area, am I missing something?
EDIT: Never mind figured it out you have to type in an address.
Thanks
Sorry try this link (and be sure to click on "Broadband Connect" coverage maps):

HSDPA on Three Mobile

Hi
I'm with three mobile in UK (three.co.uk), and I'm unable to access HSDPA.
All I can ever get is 3G (with download speed of about 200kbit/s).
I've signed up for an add-on where the data plan should be unlimited.
I've configured the access point to be three.co.uk.
I talked to Three mobile customer service (who are quite useless as they never heard of HSDPA). Complained and complained and finally I got the answer saying because I'm using an unlocked phone HSDPA is not supported. Is this true?
Did anyone out there manage to get this working?
PS. I'm on the new LSVW rom with WM6.
Cheers

3UK havent release HSPDA in UK yet, The only place they testing HSPDA in LONDON AREA
I am in the London area.
Cheers,
Use fieldtest.exe found on this forum to see if your device receives a HSDPA signal. If it does, maybe your HSDPA icon is disabled. However, maybe HSDPA testing is available only to a limited group? I'd ask them to patch you through to the technical support
Thanks. Does anyone know what are the 3mobile settings (preferred access point)?
fieldtest is not showing any info on HSDPA.
D810 GPS ROM had enabled the showing of HSDPA signal.
If your network supports HSDPA, it would show a "H" on the main connection bar.

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?

How can I view my 3G Internet settings?

I have an X1a with the R2A firmware and I want to find out my 3G internet profile settings?
When I first set up my phone after a hard reset, I am asked to input the country I am in (Canada) and my service provider (Rogers) and it automatically configures my 3G settings for me. I love this feature!
But I want to know how I can 'view' these settings so that I can set up my SE G705 for 3G as well because it's 3G capable and also supports the 850MHz band (for Rogers) for HSPA transmissions.
Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Please Help Me Activate my Uni's 3g Connection

Hello! Everyone,
I read a lot regarding on how to configure the settings of my Uni Dopod 900 in order to use 3g. However I failed to get the info I need. So now I decided to get some help.
I am not using 3g so much in the past months for I have access in WiFi hot spots in my area, however I've been traveling a lot these past months that I realized that I needed a 3g connection for some places doesn't have internet access.
I've just called their customer support but they are not useful at all. I have a dopod 900 running in windows mobile 5 with Globe SIM card in it. The problem is I can't connect to 3g using my dopod 900. I just configure the APN and setup the proxy according to the posts that I've read. And also according to my service provider's instruction (Globe |Philippines|). Still I can't connect.
Please help me activate my 3g connection. Thanks!!!
