How can I view my 3G Internet settings? - XPERIA X1 General

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.

How to configure 3G?

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

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?

[Q] Question about 3G network (WCDMA)

Hi all,
I'm struggling to get data connection over the 3G network, even though I've got a data plan and the settings seem to be on point.
I'm based in Dubai and I've got a Middle East tab (garbage as the firmware excludes the Android Market), so I've flashed a recent Euro firmware (JIP was the build if I recall)
When I go into network settings to choose 2G/3G/Auto, it shows me GSM and WCDMA as the choices. I'm pretty sure before the flash, it showed GSM and WCDMA. Is WCDMA the same as HSDPA?
The problem could be with the carrier, but I'm troubleshooting at the moment and this WCDMA is a bit confusing.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Have you checked your APN settings? Chances are that the Euro firmware doesn't have the APNs "pre-installed" for your carrier(s). The good news is that you can add them in manually if this is the case.
Regards,
Dave

If your display shows a 3G or H type signal, then your problem is a bad APN setting.
WCDMA is 3G and H on your display, if you have that then you're in good shape.
Search the net or the carriers website for the the correct setting, then create a new APN and data will instantly start to flow.
It was missing the apn setting. Justed typed it in manually and Im hooked up. Although i was bamboozled for a little while as the H didnt apear until i had turned off the wifi.
Thanks for all ur help guys.

switch between 2G and 3G

Hi I have a L720 and made him sprint sim unlock, I'm using it in Argentina with the "claro" position the company APN and it works, sign up both 2G and 3G and the mobile internet works fine. however my question is this, in the menu of this phone does not let me change mode, GSM / UMTS network can not choose one or the other, I can only make it automatic, it is not a stock ROM that lets me choose 2G or 3G. can this be changed? or stays like this forever? I need to use that in my area 2G 3G works very poorly and do not come calling me ..
from already thank you very much.

Change preferred carrier network when roaming

Hi,
Does anyone know of a way to change the preferred carrier network when roaming? I suppose I need to change the PLMN on my sim-card?
I found a way with the pc-software below (but did not test it yet):
https://www.dekart.com/products/card...t/sim_manager/
But I would rather have a way to do it on my phone, since it seems that I can only block networks in this program; and not simply change the preferred network.
Reason is that I live near the German border and travel a lot in Germany. My own provider (KPN Netherlands) dictates a their own network there (E-Plus), but it has very poor coverage where I use to travel; especially in 4G. So I would rather have Telekom - T-Mobile as my preferred roaming carrier network.
Is there an app with which such can be done? I remember that at my older phones changing the preferred roaming network was a standard option.
Or does anyone have experience with Dekart SIM-manager or another program which works?
Thanks in advance!
