I have a 8925 and am trying to get the 3G to work on Cincinnati Bell's network.
Any help for the few of us that use this locall carrier...

I have a strange problem!
I have an O2 XDA II, (unlocked), original ROM (1.03 USA), which I'm using with a UK Vodafone SIM. This works fine in the UK, however I am currently in the US trying to roam, without any luck. The automatic network selection does not connect to any network. Using manual network selection, I can select the T-mobile network, which it connects to, with good signal strength, but if I try to make or receive a call it does not work. It also loses the connection altogether after a few minutes. (This SIM works fine in the US in my Motorola tri-band phone). However, if I use my wife's US T-mobile SIM in the XDA II instead of mine, it works fine!
Any ideas?? All help would be gratefully appreciated!

phone networks must have agreements to let users roam
Vodafone certainly have a roming agreement with T-mobile in the US - I've been using this SIM in a triband phone in the US for years.
Paul
well are you talking about roaming of grps ?
because there are not as many agreements when it comes to grps as there is when it comes to std phone
No, just roaming GSM voice!

I have the UK model. I have it for three days in the USA and I use the AT&T sim card. It connects on EDGE and it is not a 3g phone in the USA. I use WIFI for my internet.
My question is: How can I get the phone to stop looking for a GPRS connection and giving me the error screen? I understand there is a loop of connectivity GPRS => EDGE => 3g and when 3g is not compatible it connects on edge.
Ok fine. But how can I get rid of that GPRS connection error screen?
The phone is like WOW! Get one. I will get a Verizon MIFI for Christmas from my wife
How can I make my HTC Magic roam on ATT's 3G network instead of Tmobile? We don't have 3G coverage on Tmobile in my home town, but I would like to see if I could get the phone to work on ATT's network. I have rooted my phone and it's not unlocked. If I unlocked the phone could I use the Tmobile SIM card on Att? I've also tried selecting ATT's network, but it won't switch. Thanks for the help.

There is not a way to make your phone show ATT if it is in coverage range of T-Mobile plus the 3G network on att uses a differenty frequency than Tmobile does so even putting a ATT sim in an unlocked mytouch or g1 would not show 3G.
I feel your pain i am waiting for cincy to get 3G as well.
Hi there,
Thanks to you guys I was able to unlock my friend's HTC and now using it on the tmobile network. Can (will I be able to) use it on the 3G? I know i'll need another phone later on so this is just temporary to test their network around town (San Diego) and see if I get voice and data coverage sufficient for my business (Realtor). Anyone with ideas for me?
Thanks,
Hey guys,
I'm using AT&T Service on my HTC HD2 w/ Android. Everything's great except for the lack of 3G (since the bands AT&T use are different from T-Mobile).
So I was thinking, what if there was a way to roam onto T-Mobile's 3G bands?
But the thing is, I go to the Network Operators list and I only see AT&T. But I know there is T-Mobile service here because my relatives have T-Mobile and do get service here.
Here's a screenshot of the Network Operators screen:
Any ideas?
Not a huge deal as I am near Wi-Fi most of the time, but it would be nice to be able to use 3G

Get a sim card.

I don't want to switch providers. I'm more than happy with AT&T's voice service.
Set your phone to MANUAL NETWORK SEARCH, then scan. T-Mobile should then show up in the list but you won't be able to access the TMO network with your AT&T card.
T-Mobile and AT&T do not have roaming agreements. You will need a T-Mobile SIM to access T-Mobile's network.
