hello guys,
need your help..........
as u could see in the title my problem is this I got a 3G smartphone (Htc polaris) which I want to use on a 3.5G network....
can this work??
I know my network provider which is 3.5G is going to sell the iPhone which is 3G so there must be a way for my phone to work as well (I hope)
believe that it will just run as 3g then
3.5G is also known as HSPA and is pretty widespreed
and
4g is also some places htc makes a phone for it

OK, I'm pretty sure I already know the answer, ie. "No", but I know so little about it I thought I'd ask.
is the XDAII compatable with the 3G networks beign rolled out? Here in NZ we're going 3G in the next couple of months, I assume GPRS etc. is all still supported, but I know if I buy a new device I'd like it to work with the highspeed network.
no xda2 is not a 3g phone
3g do you want a fry'd brain with that ?

3G in Australia/NZ is the "3" network from Hutchison which is basically UMTS so not compatible with the XDA which is GSM/GPRS
I noticed some people on eBay selling XDAs saying that they are 3G compatible but the smallprint read" on the 2G network" or something similar ie their fallback GSM network.
Cheers

if we are LUCKEY!
then maybe with software upgrades the xda
could be able to use
Edge also called G2,8
because it's based on G2 (GSM)
in maybe it dont need a new transmitter
EDGE is a new transmitter
UMTS (3G) is a new system even! So, forget the software thing.
i guys,
could any one confirm if htc wizard supports UMTS or not and also 3g simcards.
thanks
nope sorry
it is not a 3g phone and does not support UMTS ...BUT yes it will work on a 3g simcard..i have one
just as rockin figs said, it will work with a 3g/UMTS sim card, but you will not be able to access 3G/UMTS data speeds. I'm using a 3g/UMTS simcard now but can only do edge data speeds.

Have you checked in your settings? Is "always use 2G" unchecked?

Yes i've tried everything on this phone and still not working, i uncheked the option "Always use 2G network" and still i got the same problem.
Was that phone meant to be used with Orange? If it was not it could be possible that it's the same thing as when you use a T-Mobile phone on at&t or vise versa; you can’t connect to 3G because both companies have different frequencies.

OK I know that there's diference between those 2 companies T-Mobile and Orange Dominicana but the specification of the cellphone are:
General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100
and the network frequency that Orange has for 3G HSDPA is 900MHZ and the cell phone should be up and running with the 3G maybe the T-Mobile has another frequency about its 3G network but this cellphone supports also 900MHZ HSDPA that is my frequency here in DR., so there's nothing to fix this problem??
3G Orange Dominican Republic
only htc europe works with 3g orange Dominican republic
tmovile have dif 3g band
sry it will no work :-(
Where i live there is only edge service, but yet they claim largest 4g and there barley 3g, i have a hd2 with froyo 2.2 is there a way to force it to roam on ATT 3g network, it bounces on and off it on my way to work but it wont stick, when i atempt to set it it tells me the sim card cant register, but i wanna force it roaming not the main registration. Is this possible or does anyone know if there gunna do a update to 3g on there network?

There is NO way to use most hd2's on att's 3g network. The phone is not capable of it. Even if tmobile allowed 3g roaming on att, your phone just can't see it. I have roamed on att's 2g network occasionally though.
I have seen it roam to att 3g while driving and it works! But it dont last long
No, it doesn't. It can SEE ATT 3G, but it cannot connect to it. You where recieving EDGE speeds at best.
