Hello
I have a T-mobile HTC HD2 Handy and I like to use it with my Swisscom Card. Calls and SMS are easy to get, but there is no connection for the Internet. Which settings do I have to do.
Thanks for your help
Strange, everytime I go to Zurich, Basel, Bern, Lausanne I do have not the slightest problem with my Austrian Orange-Sim-Card. They JUST THROW the HSDPA to me ! AND CHARGE ROAMING FEES BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL !
Maybe Your contract does not include HSDPA/3G ? Check with Swisscom ....
OR:
since Your HD2 is branded T-mobile it does not allow Swisscom-HSDPA (check with T-mobile)
Internet access with Swisscom
Enter the following info for your Access Point Name: gprs.swisscom.ch

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

Hello All,
I am researching purchasing a SPV m1000 for my company to use as a phone and WAP device to check email through our WAP portal. After reading many, many of your postings it sounds like to use GPRS in different countries we will have to change the settings (ie. access points) in each country we visit. Is this correct? Does this become a pain to do? How do you get the settings for each country?
Also I understand that if GPRS is not available you can use WAP using just GSM at 9.6kbps. Do you just dial a number similar to a dial-up to connect to this? How well does it work?
Does GPRS usually work out more cost effictive than data through GSM? Which UK company seems to be the best when using in many different countries?
Thanks for any help,
Daniel
Hello,
The GPRS settings shouldn't change. It depends if your phone provider has roaming agreement worldwide.
I had a french phone provider, Bouyues, who had no agreement, so outside France I was stucked.
Now I am in Switzerland, Swisscom mobile has agreements worldwide and I can get access to WAP without any problem. Of course, it's more expensive... but it works without changing anything.
Hi,
I hope someone can help
Just bought a XDA Exec so that can use it in japan to replace my M1000 which is a A1000 in disgise
At the moment I'm using DoCoMo but I'm getting some strange problems the phone takes ages to lock to the signal and sometimes wouldn't ring
I can't seem to get the internet to work with my M1000 setting
The only other 3G network is Vodaphone so i'm wondering if it would be any better than DoCoMo service and if anyone has managed to get the internet work on any one of these networks
Thanks

Hi, Tokyorob
I think DoCoMo is no suitable and improper for using Exec.
The standard of the cellular phone base stations are different between DoCoMo and others .
DoCoMo's base station named Release99, and the World standard one named Release4.
DoCoMo has also R4 station, but they are only 30 percent of all its stations, and 70 percent are R99.
All devices of DoCoMo are built as Suitable for R99 and R4 both.
M1000 is also that.
But HTC Universal is suitable only for R4.
That's why your Exec can not catch the wave of DoCoMo.
You'd better getting Vodafone USIM.
Regards
Thanks Shamilsh,
That's explains the drop outs
I did try out the Vodafone USIM and found it locked on faster but I still can't get the packet transfer to work
any ideas ?
Can I ask you something?
Hello Guys,
I dont mean to look silly but, as far as I know Japan networks are not GSM, they operate on CDMA, or am I mistaken?!
Thank you & have a great day all.
Tokyorob
You have two means to connect internet with your Exec.
One is UMTS Network of Vodafone KK.
Just you can set DialUp with your Exec setting Utility.
Select a modem: Callular Line(GPRS,3G)
Access Point Name: vodafone
User Name: [email protected]
Password: vodafone
And another is using bluetooth modem like as M1000.
Setting is same as M1000's one.
Regards
Thanks Shamilsh
Tried the config with my friends USIM and it worked..
What pricing package are you on ?
I was looking at the Dual Packet Flat-rate but told by my friend that it doesn't cover everything
Vodafone are less than helpful on the matter
Basically I want to be able to :-
Have the 3G connection on all the time
surf the web
run pocket msn/messager
do you think that will be covered ?
Thanks
Rob
Hi Rob
to use internet, you need to contract package "Happy Packet Super Plan"
or "Data Value Pack Plan".
But on "Data Value Pack", you can not make voice call.
with "Dual Packet Flat Plan", you will not be able to use MSN Meesenger nor E-mail nor Skype, because it is not real internet but it is WAP.
Very sorry but our situation around Mobile is very Inconvenience and non-flexible.
Shamilsh,
Many thanks
contracted to the "Happy Packet Super Plan" going to see what my monthly bill is going to be ..

Hello friends...
I am from SPAIN, and I just switched mobile company from good-old VODAFONE, which for some reason have been losing coverage where I live, and now I am on this new company called "SIMYO" who´s service is simply great, with awesome coverage troughout Spain (uses Orange Antennas and repeaters) and probably the best tarifs also in Spain (we are the MOST EXPENSIVE mobile-tarifs European country... ).
Here is my request.... Do you guys know if we will be able to get a "connection manager" tool so that my HD will not show "roaming" all the time, as it does not detect SIMYO as a local carrier?.... I always get the "roaming icon" when calling, and obiously if I try "connection wizard" I don´t have the option to chose SIMYO, as I can only chose Telefonica, Orange, Vodafone, even Yoigo, Carrefour Movil, Bankinter Movil, Euskaltel, etc..... but no SIMYO, and I had to enter Internet parameters and MMS setting manualy...
Hope anyone can gimme a hand over here .
Thanks folks!
MOD EDIT
Move to general discussion forum as not relevent to ROM development forum
Anyone?.... I am surprised that noone is having the same problem, as I think SIMYO is also existing in other countries...
same problem here
Hi,
I'm using HTC 7 Trophy in Slovakia. I tried Orange and T-Mobile SIM and both works fine, but I get wrong carrier name:
Orange is shown as T-Mobile CZ,
T-Mobile is shown as Eurotel - CZ,
as long as I search networks I see O2 as "23106"
Is there any way to fix this? The phone was bought in Austria A1 Shop.
Thanks for answers.
same here in germany. my carrier said that microsoft currently did not open the way for carriers to send konfiguration data through sms/mms to change settings.
thats way windows phone 7 devices chooses the carrier its "having" in their list ...
hmmm, hope that this "bug" has nothing to do with roaming charges, interconnection payments etc.

It's just the name of the mobile network. There is a tiny database on your phone('s radio ROM, I presume) looking up the correct name for your network based on the network ID(23106). Flashing your phone to (a more) recent version should resolve this (in the future) since it updates this database on your phone.
Check out http://numberportabilitylookup.com/networks to retreive a (complete) list of networks.
I have locale to Czech (on HTC 7 Trophy) and carrier is "Vodafone CZyyyy", where is the problem and why? Fix it an update? In English locale is OK, "Vodafone CZ"...
same problem here. Vodafone CZyyyy. #facepalm
