Hello!!!
Recently Bought a Mini S. Updated the IPL and SPL, installed 6.5 (which is working great surprisingly!!) and I'm now wanting to be able to use a lot of the internet features that 6.5 brings.
I use a 3G simcard from "Three" the uk network on my Atom Life, but the Mini S does not even register there is a simcard installed!!! It's fine with Tesco, O2 and Orange (Tesco and O2 use the same network and Three uses Orange I believe).
The same thing happened in 5.0 also.
Anyone have any ideas??
Thanks alot guys!!!! This forum has helped LOADS with both of my XDA devices so far, one more time if you please^^

Hi guys, great forums, have learnt so much in past few days.
I have an m5000 but i'd like to use it on o2. So reflashed with aku3.2 beta8 and inserted o2 sim.
I now need the o2 settings if anyone would be kind enough to give them me, can't seem to get 3g on o2 either, where as my orange sim instantly displays "U" when it turns on.
That's the only major problem at the moment....
a simple google search will get you the settings
what i had to do to get my 3g working, was use a 3g sim card. I couldn't use my old O2 sim, so i had to activate the 3G one that came with my exec.
hope this was helpful
Has anyone managed to get a tytn working on the uk o2 network? o2 say theu do not support the phone although they have the phone in germany listed as an xda trion. I can make calls and texts with my simcard but have no 3g access as yet. The phone was originally on vodaphone. Any help appreciated !
dont you just need to edit the connection settings for o2?
these should be the same for any o2 phone that uses 3g...
i believe they are posted on the wiki
thanks for quick answer
Thats what i thought, but phoned o2 for the settings and they just kept saying that the "software" in this phone is not compatible with o2 network and therefore there is no support for it and no settings ! MUPPETS !
Any idea where i can find the settings for a normal o2 phone?
Worth a try, I really want this phone on o2 !

I smell COW DUNG!!!! O2 are spinning rubbish to you sir...ive been using a TyTN since the middle of August with O2-UK (see stats hehehe).
Il get my settings into a .txt file for you...theres some variations you can use but il set you up with the ones that work ok??
What are you on PAYG or Contract???
P.S: My TyTN is a genuine HTC TyTN (i.e not a varioII or imate JASJAM variation of it) bought it unbranded(unlocked) from mobilefun.co.uk....sim free.
Theres a cab file with the O2 UK settings somewhere on this forum I usen it all the time. Sorry I don't have the link anymore after the XDA Dev switch to new servers. Also O2 3G works perfectly fine with the tytn. What you do have to have is a 3G enabled sim card, I had to get mine changed for one & also do you have O2 3G coverage where you are? To determine if you have just whip out the sim card & it should have 3G printed on it.
Yer if your SIM is not a 3G enabled one (USIM) then give O2 a bell and say you have recently aquired a 3G handset and need a new SIM card for it to work with the 3G service....they should send one out (for free)...when it turns up just call O2 again and get them to enable it.
What they said about the TyTN not being supported is a crock of sh*t .... im guessing they will only give you the settings when its an O2 handset!?
Forgot to add the O2 3G settings are exactly the same as the normal GPRS. You just need a 3G enabled sim card
Hi,
I have been given a sim free HTC Tytn and want to use it with UK Vodafone. I currently have an ex-Orange SPV M2000 which i unlocked and it has been working fine with my Vodafone sim. With my M2000 i can make calls and browse the internet at the same time, but with the new Tytn i cannot do this
Is there a fix, should i upgrade it to the latest version or perhaps try and flash it with the V1605 Vodafone flash??
Advice really appreicated from one of the many knowledgeable people on here please,
Cheers
I upgraded my M2000 to a M3100 (with Orange UK) and they said I had to have a new sim. That could be it.
Alternatively when I got my M3100 it had a *very* early radio rom, and I had some probs receiving calls while browsing. Recent roms have sorted this, I think.
Hi, thanks for the reply.
I have installed the HTC UK Settings .CAB file from this helpful post
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_provider_cabs
I can now access internet using my contract Orange contract sim card (which has GPRS activated) although if i am on the telephone i cannot go to browse without ending the telephone call.
my Vodafone contract sim needs updating so is not available for GPRS, but i presume this will be exactly the same.
Is it IMPOSSIBLE to use Internet browsing whilst making a telephone call??
All help appreciated, Many Thanks
if youre just on the GPRS network and not UTMS\HSPDA then yes its impossable to talk and surf. the whole point of 3G was to be able to do both at the same time. GPRS can only do one thing as the same with EDGE
so in short GPRS\EDGE = one thing at a time
UTMS\HSPDA = two things at the same time.
Hi, thanks for your reply.
I have just spoken to Orange customer services and i do have a 3G sim card and it is active, is there anything i should be altering in the settings menu or anything other files that need to be flashed or installed onto the phone?
Sorry for the lack of knowledge - hope one of you experts can help!
Thank you
Can anyone help me pleasse????
Hi all
As above - sorry if report - I have searched but cant find an appropriate thread.
Using a Vodaphone card with an O2 XDA Exec. All works fine, but the GPRS doesnt appear to get 3G.
Using WM5 latest O2 release, as I need the Blackberry functionality.
I had the WM6, and the 3G then worked fine, but the Blackberry didnt!
Any thoughts as to why? Currently UK based and using PAP
hi all this is my first post. i've looked up a lot of this site though and the knowledge is great here and very helpful. I basically bought an MDA T-mobile vario iii recently and even though i had it unlocked, it didn't seem to hold a network connection for an o2 simcard. Since then ive Hard spl'd it and changed the rom to a t&t tilt, an O2 XDA stellar and one of duttys roms but even though it has been rom'd to a totally new phone it still has problems connecting to a network. it has connection, then loses it and you can see it at the top trying to connect via '3GP', 'HSDPA' and 'EDGE'. Any help or suggestions would be great. cheers
