Hello
I have European HTC TP2, and you know it doesn't work with AT&T 3G.
If I need to use 3G, I guess AT&T USB connect can help me, but can I get it without a contract?
I already have AT&T SIM card.
Thanks
I need your help please.
Interesting question, as far as I know what restricts devices from networks is the IMEI number mostly, does the USB CONNECT device have one? or does it connect via some other type of auth system. that's the real question.

I have two MDA's with T-Mobile I just cancelled service with them and got two Sprint Touch's.
My son has a AT&T GoPhone he bought on his own.
Question: Can I unlock the MDA and use the SIM card from his GoPhone with the MDA ?
Thanks
i think thats the definition of unlock.
Yes, but he won't be able to use GPRS (data). He will be able to use WiFi, when an available network is near, though, and that's not bad.
Here's the SIM unlocking thread. I'd suggest reading it THOROUGHLY more than once, before trying it.

Worked like a charm
That went much easier than I thought.
With Bluetooth and WiFi router he can connect to my router or to my new Sprint phones via bluetooth for internet access.
Thanks for the help!

Hello, can someone hepl me with conection to network by HSDPA?
I live in Ireland and i bought internet from here: http://www.buy4now.ie/3g/productdetail.aspx?pid=622&loc=P&catid=2.1
I get this modem with sim card and when i conect it by usb everythink works fine, but when i put the sim card to my SHIFT in Snapvue side it detect 3G signal but Comm Manager will say : ''THERE IS NO DATA SESSIONS ACTIVE. PROGRAMS CONNECT AUTOMATICALLY AS NEEDED. TO CHANGE CONNECTON SETTINGS, TAP SETTINGS.''
When i bought this, in shop the employee make some registration of sim card and modem, i mean the modem have own IMEI and S/N numbers which was registered for work only each other. Maybe i will need to change my SHIFT MODEM IMEI to same as this HUAWEI MODEM USING. It's Huawei Model E220 HSDPA MODEM, FCC ID : QISE220
I was calling to 3G tech support, they sayd i can't using them broudband w/t HUAWEI modem.
Can someone help me ? Thank you very much...
If your 'Snapview' side of the Shift did not recognise the card at startup, you may need to use a different SIM card as Ireland 3G is not supported within the operator settings in 'Snapview' basic.
You need to then 'Liberate' Snapvue, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378234
Then you can load the Ireland 3G settings if anybody will supply them to you, not sure if they are available as a standalone settings cab.
Hope this helps.
I got it
I used setings for UK 3g and then i changed only one thing in netw. settings, i edited the name from something UK 3g net to 3ireland.ie that's it, now it's working, i will test it and i post my experience here later
I did it on clasical HTC WM, not in full WM
Good for you.
You yourself will probably help a few others with that.
I imagine you changed the APN within Connections which then allowed Network access.
If all goes well can you post exactly what you did for others to use.
Good luck.
To be connected when away from home or hotspots, I need a mobile WiFi hotspot device which will use my GSM network sim to access the data connection. The device should be portable enough to keep it in my pocket. Please recommend some such devices with links to where I could buy them.
And if there are any other reliable way to be online without using the WiFi, please do mention it.
[Solved] I found A 3g wifi router that supports usb 3g modems.
What type of mobile phone do you use? Most of the newer Android phones allow you to use your device as a mobile hotspot. I use my Samsung Galaxy S as a hotspot now and then and it works great.
I believe there is a thread here covering the use of 3g devices that plug into the usb port. Search on 3g + usb and you should be able to find it.
Best of luck to you.
Just a guess, but seeing your country (Bangladesh), this will be something that will be specific to your local wireless provider that you will probably need to investigate yourself. Like, I can't tell you to go T-mobile or ATT (the US GSM Providers).

is that you look for ?
just sell your old phone and buy a samsung galaxy mini (you want the cheapest right?) ...
i believe it can be a hotspot...
then you are good to go, no need to bring extra thing in your pocket..
Ok, as far as I know MiFi devices create a WiFi hot spit using a network connection. With the model you recommende, can I plug in any kind of GSM sim in it?
Hi guys,
Was wondering if you could help with something.
I am in Bolivia at the moment and working out in a remote town with little WiFi.
The phone network ENTEL here sells '4G' dongles (hdpsa+ hupsa actually)* with unlimited data for no money at all so I picked one up. Plugged it into a computer, installed the software and it connected and works great.
However when I tried to put the SIM from my dongle in my Galaxy S2 it will not work. Just says emergency calls only and does not seem to connect to anything. I have enabled packet data and apn settings seem present.
With the same phone as a test I took a normal ENTEL sim card (not from dongle) and this connected to network and EDGE data and I was able to access websites etc over mobile internet no worries (although it costs a lot).
I'm sure none of you will be familiar with the Bolivia phone networks but perhaps on basic principals you can help. IE why doesn't my dongle simcard work in my phone for data?
Thanks so much in advance.

If it's.like it is here in Costa Rica then the SIM cards used for the data dongles are coded for just that and can't be used in phones... Mainly because usage plans.are different they won't allow anyone to use it for data on phones whose plans data plans are twice as much.
Now if that's not the case there then it's probably hardware related such as in frequencies... The dongle SIM may be for a different radio band than what you're phone can pick up
My home 3g wifi modem stopped working 6 months ago so I now use my old galaxy s as the modem. The sim is data only that's meant for a dongle / pocket wifi but it works fine. Just had to enter the virgin broadband apn and that was it. The sim is a 3g sim and the phone is unlocked.
Never tried a 4g sim though. Very good chance the 4g uses a different network frequency than the phone supports. But I would think a 4g sim should still connect to the 3g/H/Edge frequencies.

Hey, everyone. I want to use my G5 Plus with the Visible network. As far as I know, the device is carrier unlocked. It's running one of the Android 11 roms. I've used it with T-Mobile networks and had it work fine, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
I've tried a Visible SIM in the phone, and when I did, it couldn't see the network. It recognized the SIM as a Verizon-type. But it didn't connect to any network. That makes me worried. Even if I don't have the service yet, shouldn't it see the network and connect to it?
Can anyone advise me on what to do? I want to make sure this is going to work before the end of the month. If it isn't, I need to buy something else.
