Hi!
Data connection works on my phone only when there are 3g available (hsdpa works fine also). On gprs/edge area there are G and E -symbols on the top of screen(!), but any data does not move. I haven't any idea, what is wrong. Gprs and Edge worked fine two weeks ago.
Yes, I have tried an another company SIM-card - 3g still works, 2g does not. Is there any register key or something to put gprs and edge to work again? There isn't any tab on phone settings to switch 2g on/off. Updating radio ROM (from 1.51.00.10 to 1.54.07.00) did not help.
The one and only program I have used (connected to data connection issues) is the newest BandSwitch-program, but is there any change that BS caused that problem?
OS is WM6.
If anyone have an idea to fix this, please let me know!
With best regards,
Teemu

Hey guys, My device is Kaiser(TyTNII) and AT&T is my operator.
I live in Philadelphia, US.
Before yesterday my TyTNII can access HSDPA (with "H" symbol on the top right) when I try to use internet.
However, I use Kaiser Tweak to change some setting of my device and suddenly my kaiser doesn't recognize HSDPA network anymore, I mean it will only show "3G" on the top right. I have checked all the settings and everything seems fine.
HSDPA function is checked and same as in the Kaiser Tweak.
Can someone help me out here?
Thanks.
i have the same problem, cant go into hsdpa or even 3g only edge. and it seems to have happened after using kaiser tweak also.
Got some help over in the Kaiser forum that helped me. Go to your comm manager then settings/phone/ then go to band and switch your network type to wcdma. after it updated the network i switched back to auto and it seems to be working so far for me. hope this helps you out, something you could try.
I seem to have the same issue but the above solution doesn't help. Whenever I set the phone to do HSDPA through Connections I loss all data connectivity, once I turn it off HSDPA I get 3G.
Is it possible for radio settings to survive a hard rest / ROM upgrade or is the HSDPA side of my Tilt broken :-(
Any insight or help would be real appreciated.
Several times I have gotten "Warning: Unable to change GSM/UMTS Band, Please try again later."

OK is it possible for this to be tower related? What I mean is I drove about 4 miles from my house, got a better signal and surfed the internet using HSDPA. Now I'm back home and HSDPA is chocking and giving me "unknown error 0x80072f78"
What He!!?
One note on my HSDPA trouble, it must some how be related to the one tower nearest my home. When I go anywhere outside a 5 miles radius (I live near the tower) everything works fine.
Here is the weird part, every where else the phone will switch from HSDPA to 3G to Edge and back no problem. Here in town it locks into HSDPA and refuses to switch to 3G or anything else. I don't know if it means anything but it seems to get an IP address I can ping but I don't get any DNS info!.
Now how can I convince AT&T that there's a problem when their support person denies there is any HSDPA services and I should only expect 3G?
Hi all. recently upgraded my vario to win mob 6 with a rom off here...XM6r5 to be exact. All runs fine except the problems i am having with the radio connection. I cannot change the band selection from auto to GSM. I think the phone thinks its 3G but i dont want that i need gprs only as the 3g signal round here is rubbish and as it is its hammering my battery life. When i try to change the band it says it cant be done right now please try later!!!?
I have manually selected O2 in the operator selection, i have the G symbol on the top bar, sometimes this becomes an E, i presume for Edge.
Anyone any ideas how i can solve this??
Thanks
the wizard can't handle 3g, so it wouldn't think its 3g.
the G is for GPRS, and the E is for Edge. this only means that connection is available, not actually connected.
So, to answer your question, you should try the autoconfig (network wizard)
I have searched this forum for 3 weeks now but have not found an answer to my problem.... forgive me if it is here somewhere.
I have a pola200 running the official O2 WM6.1 ROM including the 1.59.42.15 radio. I have a vodafone SIM with full data enabled and am certain the internet settings are correct. I know the SIM works as I have tried it in another phone.
However, I can only connect to GPRS when using GSM as the band setting on the phone. As soon as I select Auto as the band setting and try to connect a data or voice call the signal drops and the connection fails.
I know that the phone is picking up a HSPDA or 3G signal as the icon changes but as soon as I try to connect to the internet or make a voice call I get a Dialed: internet -
I have tried all available Polaris radio ROMs and also tried loading udK's Diamond R8 ROM as I thought O2 may have loaded something to stop it working. Nothing has worked.
Any ideas?
Simple question, you probably have but, have you run the Connection Wizard and is the SIM card 3G compatible because my Vodafone SIM card isn't.
I have run the connection wizard and the SIM is certainly 3G compatible - it works in other 3G phones.
Hmm, then I'm stumped. Sorry I can't be of help.
I got a new HTC touch 3g from Asia and have frustrating problem. On ATT network in US, when the call network switches between 3G and Edge the phone network becomes zero ( no bars) and the calls drop.
This is extremely annoying as the ATT network continuously changes from 3g and edge when driving/walking. Is there anyway to switch off 3g/edge because I don't have a data plan and I don't use the phone for internet.
Or is there a way to force it to be only edge?
Any help would be great!
do a search for nodata.cab, it's originally form the Modaco forum but i've seen it over here too, works great!
Thanks! Downloaded and changed the settings in nodata.
Any ideas how I can test that this works? I still see "E" next to the phone bars.
Thanks a lot.
I think this is no solution: NoData only stops data-connections and does not affect the connection-band that is used for communication with the base-stations of the network (for speaking and data). Your problem are the calls not the data connection that you do not use, IMO.
Try this: "Start/Settings/Telephone/Band" (translated from German). There you can preselect the Band(s) that is (are) used for communication globally.
Thanks. I don't have anything called "Band".
I tried using Bandswitch...has anyone tried it?

This sounds good, I do not know the exact English nomenclature because I have a German version. What type of network is displayed next to phone bars now?

You're right! i was mislead by the question (how to turn of 3G or Edge).
i own a samsung galaxy s2 ordered from uk,
everything working fine except for this serious issue that i have been trying to resolve till now.
i have a monthly internet subscription from my carrier and it always been working fine on my iphone ( i mean here connecting through the 3g network ). but in the S2 .. i have to use Edge to be able to access the internet ( the mobile network mode must be set to GSM only ). whenever i switch the network mode to GSM\WCDMA auto , the 3g icon appears but when it tries to connect to internet, the phone automatically switch to Flight mode and i loose the network signal. and this happens all the time. till now i am only able to connect to the internet by switching the mobile network mode to GSM only which only uses Edge network .
i have tried every possible thing to resolve this issue but nothing worked for me. please help
What country are you in? What carrier are you on? What bands do they use?
location location location.
Where are you from?
And what frequency does operators in your region operate.
just curious, have you tried hard/factory reset?
i am from saudi arabia and i am using Mobily network.
mobily is using HSDPA network as well as Edge network.
i did a software reset and still the same issue.
phone information:
Baseband version I9100XXKDH
Kernel version 2.6.35.7--I9100XWKDD-CL161513
Build Number GINGERBREAD.XWKDD
crazy idea - is there any blocking going on in SA or with that carrier? Have you used another not carrier supplied smartphone successfully on that network?
I have been always using their 3g network on my iphone. And still there network only on edge connection on the s2. What i have noticed is that the saved apn sometimes shows up and sometimes disappears

Hi, very similar issue here.
For this four days since I have got my GS2 everything was just fine. The data connection and 3G speed was great. Yesterday, all of the sudden all got crappy. Could not display any web pages. It starting to display page but after few seconds pop-up window appear which say "Data connectivity problem. The server failed to communicate. Try again later"
Interesting that my gmail, market, xda app working fine as normal.
I'm in Ireland on O2 now.
Baseband version I9100XXKDH
Kernel version 2.6.35.7--I9100XWKDD-CL161513
Build Number GINGERBREAD.XWKDD
Can someone help to solve the problem, please. Is it possible that something with the hardware is wrong? Broken?
I'll perform the factory reset and will let you know.
i just managed to flash my device with the latest EXE1 dated May 3.
and i am still facing the exact same problem.

Maybe we should ask for replacement...
I have same issue, and for Ihrrob, your other application are working fine because what i noticed on my mobile that 3G & 2G connection is there but not permenant that's why WIFI hotspot always disconnect and VOIP applications are not working.

You are right the 3G/2G connection is there but not permanent.
If I press the Internet icon the home page, which is 'Google' appears (sometimes) immediately. I think this is because the page is very light. If I try to open a regular page it loads 1/3 of the content or nothing.
i just hope it is a software bug not a hardware problem
Type on the dialpad *#*#4636#*#* and force the phone to HSDPA only on the dropdown menu. This is a hidden menu on the phone.
Isn't this carrier related?

Unfortunately not.
I have spoke to the rep in the store. They reset all settings for me but it didn't help.
Just to double check if he wasn't wrong I've put the sim card in to my N900 and all data worked fine.
Bad, bad...

I'm on Mobily network in Riyadh, and 2G/3G is working fine for me. I stay on 2G most of the time to save battery, but have tested 3G and got around 3mbps.
I have the same Baseband, Kernel and Build number (rooted)
Are you using "Market Enabeler"? It can change your APN settings, and you need to restore the provider setting.
just rooted my device.
still same weird issue.
issue again: simply whenever my device tries to connect to H+ , the device automatically enters flight mode and automatically disable flight mode so that the signal bars come back without H+ and when i check back the saved APN i see nothing there ( thought i was there before ). and this strange behavior disappears when i switch the mode from GSM/WCDMA auto TO GSM only .. after i do this the device connects regularly to Edge network and i can browse the net.
so basicaly for me i will be only able to use the device on Edge instead of HSDPA or 3G.
im really hoping for help from here because i don't think i will find any help outside of this expert community.
regards
try to make it on obligatory 3G (WCDMA only) and check if the problem still there ..
still same problem juffo
i have noticed that another post are poping up talking about almost the same issure.
i hope a new firmware will fix this
