I downloaded the T-Mobile (NL) application for PPC2002 ("T-Mobile GPRS Connect") which should take care of the GPRS connections, but it does not work. It keeps complaining about not able to open the modem connection (I'm using the Cellular Line modem): "Can not find the name of the serial port".
Anybody any ideas?
It is a nice utility which displays the speed, send/received bytes and connection time, but useless sofar...

hey marco,
i bought a t-mobile pocket pc in the US and unlocked it. With my vodafone sim i now can do everythinh with the device. So I know how to make a GPRS connection to Vodafone, but don't know the settings for t-mobile.
A few days ago I also tried to install t-mobile app. but it sucks. I suggest you try to find out the correct settings with t-mobile nl to make a descent GPRS setting and not use the t-mobile application

hi i have a softbank X01HT running on WM5. and today i was going to go get the Rogers 3G plan so i planned to tried it out to see if it worked in the store first before getting the plan. so when i inserted the store's HSPDA sim card into my phone and have the carrier's samsung 3G phone call me using the video to see if it works or not. but it couldnt connect the call for some reason. so the sales told me that my setting might not be correct on my phone. so i want to know if anyone has tried using rogers 3G on the softbank before and what settings do u need to do on it.
my internet setting and stuff works cuz i can check my email and go on the internet using GPRS. and all my network settings are on auto. so i dont see why it didnt work in the store. if anyone has any ideas please help me. cuz im trying to get this thing set up before the 3G pricing goes up. thanks alot for the help.
so i guess no one knows then

I did called ATT and they given me the settings but they said since they dont support the device they will not be able to help me on this other then to give me the settings
so here i am looking for somone who can help me with this issue
does your ROM have a version of Network Wizard.. it might help.
Look under START, SETTINGS, CONNECTIONS for "network wizard"
If not, some Roms may have it under START, PROGRAMS.
Here is the network wizard, in case you don't have it in ur rom.

im struggling to find information about how i can set up my orange branded HD with stock rom on any other network.
i have unlocked the phone using olipros unlocking service.
i have a 3UK sim at the moment and when i put it in it gets signal, i can make and receive calls but cant get internet which is the main thing i want to use this network for, i havent yet tried text and dont use mms.
i get a notification telling me network settings are not in the database and i have no idea what the settings for this network are and cant find them on three.co.uk and the setup wizard on there does not support my phone.
i would rather not change the stock rom as theres too many to choose from and i dont se the phone for much anyhow. If theres a rom that has all the settings already for most uk networks then i may consider it.
any advice would be helpfull as at the moment its useless having an unlocked phone as im still stck with orange and the rubbish signal and only 3g speeds in my area.
Hi,
I recently bought a HTC Surround (AT&T), im from Costa Rica and we don't have AT&T as a carrier.
The phone works great with the GSM band but when i try to look for any 3G settings (using 850Mhz band) i cant find any options.
According to an article in the internet (i cant post any links yet) there should be an option called "Mobile Network" where i can turn the 3G on or off, so im guessing AT&T disabled the option (phone doesn't have any 3G sign on the sign bar at the top just the antenna bars).
Is there any way to Unlock the 3G options on this phone?
Thank you.
Help me out a little with your request. The place to turn on/off data is under cellular in the settings page. However, I haven't found "Mobile Network" on mine. However, I did download HTC Connection Setup which allowed the phone to search for various carriers and automatically set up the connections. That program is in Marketplace under HTC apps.
BTW, is your phone SIM unlocked?
Thank you for answering ...Sure ill help you with what ever you need... we might be able to narrow down my problem... lets see
1. HTC connection: yea i tried the app actually i have it installed on my phone but its giving me a message saying "Carrier doesnt exist in the data base" that i need to go a create apn (isnt that for phone internet). so i cant use the application, our carrier here is called I.C.E.
2.The band Costa Rica is using for 3G is the 850MHz. my SIM card is linked to a GSM account (1900 MHz) but the phone should be able to recognize the band tho, isnt that right?
3.how do i know if my phone is sim lock? i just placed my GSM SIM card inside and its working, do i need to try with a different card?
4. how does 3G works in this phone? is it configurable?
I'm pretty sure you are going to have to configure an APN for it to use 3G. As for band switching, I don't think it's possible with the current interface (at least on AT&T). Perhaps there are some registry entries that we will soon be able to access when some of the WP7 developers make headway, but right now, there is nothing of which I'm aware. If you can call on your network, the phone is already SIM unlocked, so no need to worry there.
I found some nice info about switching 3G or 2G etc... which it helps but i think it didnt work on mine.
Does anyone know how to set the HD7 (or surround) to 3G only?
Dialer> ##3282# Call > Settings > 3G only.
But in my case what i saw after that was that all the antenna bars were gone and then it went into no service then picked up signal again. After checking the settings after dialing again it was set to automatic again and if a switch it to 3G only it does the same thing again.
So im guessing it didnt work, ill try to talk to my carrier and see if we can create an APN to handle the 3G.
Is there a chance that the 3G feature is locked by AT&T?
Thanks for all your help if by any chance you find out something else i will appreciate the help.
Well apparently i got it fixed my phone seems to be working on 3G right now, i have the 3G sign on the top bar.
To make the story short.
I just configured my internet, added the roaming options and then tried again ##3282# only 3G and it worked now its showing 3G next to the antenna bars.
Thank you jwzg for your help.

Hi. If your SIM card is old (GSM) add APN: icecelular. If your SIM card is new (Kolbi), add APN: kolbi3g

No, you don't have to do any special configuration. I think TMobile bands for 3G are different frequencies from ATT, so sadly, I think you are never going to be able to have 3G connection on your Surround while you are on TMobile. Regards.
mmmmm tmobile used different bands
mmmmm input to sim movistar in htc, rigth in connection setup appers to configuracion of Nicaragua chance to Costa Rica and input sim ice connection don´t exist in data base... :-( mms is not working!!!
