Hi Folks,
i have a little question: the Wizard 100 is a vodafone Device. I don´t know if there is an other cell Operator with this Device. Vodafone works on 900Mhz right? Is the antenna of the wizard 100 optimized for this Frequency? it wil still be a TriBand Device, but optimized for 900Mhz.....
I really don´t think so, but this question has occured because of a bigger Battery Drain since using a 1800 Provider (E-Plus Germany)...
Thanks for your requests....
Little correction, wiza200 is quad-band device, also wiza110 (Vodafone VPA Compact II) is quad-band. Works fine on all GSM Networks (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz) Your battery drain may be caused by lower signal coverage by Your operator equipment.

I bought an unlocked Audiovox SMT 5600 on Ebay some time ago, at that time I was not aware that it did not have 900 Frequency that is used here in Norway, I can use the the phone some of the time because it contain the 1800 Freq. that is used when the 900 is overloaded (that how I think it works).
So my question is: is it possible to get 900 freq. or is that a hardware issue, if it is is there a place where I can tradeit in to a mobile that contain the 900 freq.
It is running the latest french Orange ROM .
Thanks in advance for any response.

AT&T/Cingular are in the process of rolling out their HSDPA network and a handful of cities are using it; NOW is the Universal capable of this....I asked a similar question about the UMTS 1900 MHz being activated so it could be used in the states; Granted I was given some very good replies but I am still curious. Over the past week I have been talking to some other engineers in my field and have found that a great number of things are possible with the Universal, it has the architecture to support this, SUPPOSEDLY ! Now lets look at UMTS as a whole; then HSDPA ! HSDPA is a software upgrade to existing UMTS software, that's all ! SO is it possible that we can have HSDPA on the Universal with an upgrade to the radio stack, I think YES !...and the bands should also be able to be activate, current UMTS 2100 MHz to 1900 MHz so it becomes dual band...the other is the GSM 850 band ! That apparently can be activated !...HOW is the big questions....Most of the HTC is limited by software; not hardware...its existing hardware has been built with scalability in mind...I just hope that some one can figure out the radio stack updates to facilitate this functionality !
The current model does not support HSDPA. However, I heard that the HSDPA version is due before year-end.
Hi All,
is there anyway to determine what GSM frequency band a WM5 phone is currently using?
I would like to know if my WM5 device is using a 900 or 1800 MHz GSM band. The device is quad-band capable and the network I am on is dual-band 900/1800. I can't find any GSM hash codes to report the information and I've had a quick look through extended TAPI but can't see anything.
Building on from that is there anyway to force a WM5 device to only use 900 or 1800? i.e. the mobile would only report itself to the network as being 900 or 1800 capable...but not both.
Thanks, rhd
People,
i have been using vodafone in my Qtek 9000 for almost a year now.
basically, since i started with vodafone (company subscription, so not my personal choice :-( ) i have crappy voice quality on the far end, people complain they can't here me okay.
it has nothing to do with reception or anything, because i hear them perfect, and reception is just fine.
i have had everything replaced by qtek already, mainbord, and also got a new SIM card.
but, this week, i noticed, by pure luck, that it does work fine when i am one UMTS or when i have a connection to a more advanced 1800 MHz DCS network.
I only have these issues with a vodafone sim card in the NL, al other providers work fine (and they have a full blown 1800 Mhz network)
so, getting to the question how do i force my universal to only use a 1800 Mhz gsm network, when there is no UMTS network available?!?!
Did you try playing with the settings:
Start-Settings-Phone-Band-.. ?
Hi,
I am planning to buy Touch 3G or Touch Diamond. (Still confused)
However, can anyone tell me which one of these will work with US carriers 3G services.
The specs mention
General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 2100 / 900
So, general latching on to US GSM networks and using Edge is not a problem, I know. However, not sure about 3G.
Whatever reading I have done shows that the 3G network is as per European standard. So I am sure I should be able to use 3G in Europe/Asia.
Can some gurus help me with this.
Appreciate your help
Anup
I have ATT, and no, the Touch 3G does not work because it is missing the 3G band used by ATT. I only get Edge in places where my old P3600 would get 3G.

Does this mean that this device will work at least for voice/SMS in Japan (which only has WCDMA 2100, no conventional GSM at all)?
