Diff b/w TMobile and Cingular GPRS - Networking

Hi,
Is there a difference b/w the two GPRS networks? I'm having a problem with detecting the TMobile network while if I try Cingulars network it works fine. Is there something that needs to be done on the phone specifically for TMobile like a registry setting or something?
Thanks,
Ho'okani

where you're from?
did you create a gprs/3g connection with the t-mobile credentials???

I'm in the US (Hawai'i) and the settings for TMobile GPRS are correct it's just that the phone will not detect the TMobile network and doesn't even know it is available. There is no 'G' in the top task bar as there normally would be if it detected the network. The regular phone service works fine but for some reason, the phone just won't detect the GPRS network.

AT&T RSU A.20.10 on T-Mobile

Have the XDA Special ROM 3.17.03 ENG
Have the AT&T RSU A.20.10
Phone works fine, SMS works fine, .... GPRS ????
I have manually updated the T-Mobile Internet Connection settings and have been able to connect to GPRS only once during the last 24 hours. Any ideas on what might be the problem??
Thx in advance
Now it works
Placed my SIM card in a Microsoft SmartPhone and connect to GPRS. Them placed the SIM card back into my T-Mobile and presto, it connected. I am connect using the Wireless Modem app as I write this.
Very strange!!

Once again GPRS will not work. Seems like the AT&T RSU is very flakey on the T-Mobile network.
Does not seem like the radio recognizes that I am in a GPRS area. The two times I have had GPRS work, the radio showed "G" in the network provider bubble. GPRS did not work all morning and then suddenly "G" appeared and then I could use GPRS.
Now I am home and the "G" symbol does not show up and I have connected to GPRS here many times before.
Any thoughts???

Unlocked XDA Exec on T-mobile 3G network?

Hello people
I've just come into possession of an 02 branded HTC Universal, which has been unlocked.
Everything works fine except for 3G data/internet. The phone can find a 3G (UMTS) network, but it can't use it for any kind of data.
I have a web'n'walk (3G) tariff, and I've tested my SIM card in a T-mobile phone and 3G works fine. So tariff and SIM are fine.
The problem must be with the phone. T mobile say it's not their handset so they can't help - so I'm depending on you lot!
Are there some settings I need to change to make this work on Tmobile's network? There's GPRS settings, modem connection settings etc. Any of those could be the culprit. I've tried settnig up a modem connection with general.t-mobile.uk, without putting in any username, password or domain, and that doesn't work.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Sharif
yeah u need to input the settings
goto connections and add new modem connection and type in 'T-mobile Internet'
then click next and in the access point type in 'general.t-mobile.uk'
then the next page your on to the username password settings where use the following
username: t-mobile
password: one2one
Do you know the 3 uk settings?
I have the same problem but i'm now on the 3 network.

use the program at the bottom of the page "network settings wizard" sure its not for the universal but it works. I used it to setup my three settings.

Does GPRS data work in vista

Hello, my network is Three(UK), my shift works fine when I get a 3G or HSDPA signal but doesn't seem to work on GPRS in vista (it just shows no network connection) yet in snapvue I can still sync with my exchange server over GPRS. Does GPRS data work in Vista?
Works fine for me on T-Mo UK on GPRS.

you must try to format your vista side..

3 have only 3g (umts/hsdpa), if you try to go in gprs it goes on roaming with others operators. is possible that on the settings of your shift is not enabled roaming.

I've unchecked the setting in vista that says to disable data connection when roaming and it hasn't made any difference. Are there any other settings I need to change?

MDA connects to GPRS only when synced...weird

Woke up in the morning and found MDA unable to connect via GPRS... keeps trying but cant connect.
-Checked ALL the settings
-Soft Reset/ Took Battery Out/ Took sim card out
-Hard reset
WILL NOT CONNECT TO GPRS
but connects to the net and am able to connect and check mail when connected to my PC via active sync...
can someone explain this to me...
T-mobile MDA support told me to have sim card tested at local store in another device...
please help
i would check if settings->connections->connections->advanced->select network
was set to my ips or something to that effect
could be that your isp use it's name as setting or something
if it's set to my network or something like that it will only use activesync as connection
it's set to Tmobile data....

The WIFI without the GPRS (3g)

Hello,
I need some help about my htc hd.
I want to ensure that, then i connected to internet via WIFI, my GPRS (3g) is not connected.
How can i disable the 3g GPRS connection, and enable WIFI only
Thanks a lot!!!
No Data will allow you to stop data connection.
so now if i closed my Orange network, the WIFI should work?
It is still doesnt work, do you have any idea how to configure it?

Course it will there seperate
All you do is block Orange connection when you want and unblock when needed
This program doesn't help me , because even i close it the GPRS still work.
But than i take the SIM from the phone, or turn off the phone feature, the internet connection is unavailable.
I think that all problem that was in some topics about the WIFI speed , is because of they used the GPRS internet and not the WIFI.
So , there some more complexive problem with internet WIFI in HTC HD.
Just try to take out the SIM and than surf in internet with WIFI? There is no way!!!!!
the connection icons on the top of the screen clearly show which data connection is active
the manual describe the meaning of all the top screen icons
settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
pick my home network or whatever the non isp connection is named on your phone
and all data connections when there is no wifi or activesync connections to get free network from will fail with an error == you will never get a grps connection again
before you turn it back to my isp or what it's named on your device
