[Q] 3G on Froyo 3.2 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Does anyone have 3G on Froyo 3.2?

"Froyo 3.2"
...the Mdeejay build?
(be specific, please, for the love of god)
Oh, and check your APN settings.

Nah man, Darkstone build. I already got my APN settled up, just got E with full bar of signal. Never get 3G at all, just G rarely but most of time E.

Hmm...
You in a bad signal area?
What radio do you use? (switching could help)

I'm in Rochester, New York. It's a great signal. I couldn't find my radio somewhere in Setting under Software Info.

When you boot into WM, it says (in the bottom left) "R" and then the radio rom version.

Flashed Radio should be the last part of the Baseband-Version in the SW Info.

The radio version said 2.10.50.26 and my ROM version is Astraios 1.6 WWE which it is under Shubcraft. What am I missing?

My Baseband version said 15.39.50.07U_2.10.50.26. Does it help anything?

Hmm, you could try flashing different radio ROMs, some people have reported changes for better worse in signal with different radios.

Froyo no internet connection??
Ok, I installed froyo 3.2 on my hd2 and everything is working good except it says I have no cennection to the internet and i need to connect, but I have signal and tmobile network, can someone please help me with this problem??

Guys,
we need to have some sort of a poll for the best radio out there so that everyone can benefit from it.

just use the newest..
and the result of this will not be plain the "best" radio. also you don't know about different networks in different countries etc... i second my precessor, just use the newest as long as it doesn't make trouble.
I use the newest one, until i find a problem.
you won't find a problem with newer ones, since all radios as of yet are abysimal at best with 3G
Bluetooth now works well on 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22
I am in the UK and did the update from HTC to fix the Sense speed etc.
Once I did this my Bluetooth stack was shot. Dropped all the time and would hang connecting to A2DP unless I did a reboot etc.
Not sure what the radio number was in that build.
I just got fed up and rooted my phone and flashed 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22.
Wow, now Bluetooth is working like a charm (only been 1 day but a world of difference).
3G and 2G seem the same as before for connection and signal etc.
Just thought I would let you all know my findings.

Bad wifi signal

Hi, I've recently got myself a Topaz and when using my home wifi I get a very poor signal even when I'm right next to the router. I get about 1 or 2 bars. I've tried to change the performance to battery ratio setting with no luck. Any input on this matter will be much appriciated.
That is a radio problem.
Check current radio version, it should be 4.49.25.17 if you are running new official ROM with win6.5
all settings/device information
I'm actually still running win6.1.

No prob...
Take a look here, read it good and then flash one of the newest radios...
I'm reading the newest one drains battery and that the older version is better. Have you had any problems with the newest radio?

I use the newest and no probs. But it is depending of your operator, the place where you live, what connections you use most... and so on...
So, try, try and try... the latest ones...
Just updated the radio and its all working perfectly. I'm finally getting full bars on signal from my router. First time doing anything to my phone and it was quite easy with all your help. Thank you to everyone.

Was 3G now G

Flashed T-Mobile 1.43 to generic 1.66 which has improved the loud call volume and distortion greatly. But the network now says G rather than 3G are they the same?
Does this mean the network settings have changed. I have selected T-Mobile as the network internet.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
3G is as you expect 3G, G is GPRS which is deffinately NOT 3G speed.
Chances are the rom you have installed has 3G mode off by default. Open Comm Mannager and you should find some toggle switches, one for data connection, and another for 3G. If the data connection one is on, but 3g is 'off', you will get G or E (for edge), but with the 3G one 'on' you should get H (HSDPA) or 3G
Tlooked through the settings and there is nothing that switches 3G on or off.
Anyone else seen this?
Thanks.
Suggestion:
Flash to Dutty's HG v8, which is based on the t-mobile ROM and has this option (and is much better than 1.66 stock, IMO)
I don't know about you since you are on T-Mobile, and if there is a 1.66 ROM released explicitly for the T-Mobile net, but I'll share my knowledge on this:
I'm located in Sweden and use the HD2 on the Tele2 net. I also upgraded to 1.66 and got the exact same problem as you.
I tried the 2.07 rom and the problem remained, however after 2-3 hours I finally got 3G connection.
The problem is that both 1.66 and 2.07 comes with newer radios. These Radios are the reason I can't use 3G at least. I downgraded the Radio to 2.05.51.05_2 and it all works fine for me now. I don't know if this is operator related or hardware related and hence I'd like to know if the 1.66 ROM you installed is explicitly released for the T-Mobile net.
If that's the case I'll probably need to contact my vendor since I'll probably not be able to use any of the newer Radios, which frankly sucks. Please let me know!
I have the 1.66 on Virgin UK (Tmobile and the 3G has not dropped at all.
Don't know if that helps or confuses ?

Ild rather have the choice, than no choice at all. Dutty's ROM has been the only flashes ive needed since T-Mobile stock ROMs.
The ROM is the latest 1.66 on the HTC website. I asked T-Mobile about it but the person did not really know. They asked if the internet connection was fast, but since I've had the phone it has been patchy. It seems reasonably fast today. We have two other T-Mobile phones, HTC Hero and Samsung Galaxy and both these also show the G and these are non flashed standard as bought.
I'm a bit nervous about using cooked ROMs.
Andy
Went over to Hungerford this morning and 3G came up so it must be a network/location issue and nothing associated with ROM 1.66.
Good to know all functionality is still there.
Thanks for all the replies.

As I said, in my case it took a couple of hours (no matter location) and the 3G appeared. Could you do a soft reset when you get the 3G at Hungerford and see how long it takes before you get 3G again?

[Q] Android Phone Signal Fluctuates

I'm with T-Mobile and the signal for my hd2 is solid on winmo, but when I boot android my phone signal fluctuates. It goes from 5 bars to 2 bars to none then back to 5 bars again and the cycle continues. I've tried several roms and radio changes as well as android built but that does not seem to fix the problem.
Does anyone know a way to fix this?
As of right now, I'm using Chucky with 2.12 radio and my favorite build Froyostone V2.
Mine does the same with froyostone v2 as well. Im running 2.08.50 radio. Frustrating!

Yep, have the same issue on Bangsters 1.3 build :\
T-Mobile, 2.12.50 radio
same issue with o2 and Radio 2.10 tested with HyperDroid and Bangsters
I'm T-Mobile and my signal is different depending on where I am at! But if I find the sweet spot it stays dead on.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Same issue. with radio ver. 2.12.50.02_2.
Signal seems solid on WinMo but on Android Bangsters 1.3a it jumps sometimes to Edge insted of Hsdpa. it depends on where I am. Conn-type-RMNET - PPP does not work for me.
The bottom line the signal is beter on WinMo. Hope this will be solved on next build.
I concur... I just recently started using Android on my T-Mobile HD2 and can relate that the signal quality as well as data connection is sketchy at best. One second I'll have a full signal and the next I have none. Then once the signal comes back, any and all data services also don't work.
Using Darkstone V2 and Radio 2.12.50.2
Exactly the same for me which is a shame because its the only problem left I'm having. The signal is there and its strong then it disappears and just keeps running that cycle all the time.
O2 stock 172 Rom

Same here
Shubcraft 1.5 radio 2.11. sometimes it shows no signal, how ever i dont know if it is just the software or actually the phone does not have signal.
Same on froyostone + 2.12 radio.
changed to mdeejay Froyo Sense + 2.11 radio
no more "no signal every 2 min, gonna smash my phone on the floor" for me.

Let me test mdeejay's build, let's see if its better.
I have had the same problem, so i downloaded the "mdeejay_froyo_sense_v1.5_NOAXI " build, copied "rootfs.img" to my Andrid folder, restarted, and now it seems to not loose the signal at all. Full / almost full signal all the time.
I also tried to use "zImage" from the mdeejay-build. It also worked, but WiFi would not start at all. Just said "Fail", so i switched back
Not sure if this works for everyone, but it sure is worth a try...

in settings under phone/cell standby what percent do you have without a signal? Mine is usually really high 50-80%. I've been able to pull 32 hrs out of a single charge when its on the lower end.

Whenever you switch your zImage you have to also change your bcm4329 module, if not Wifi will not work.
I think we really need an exploration in radios in general. Pick a random set of builds and everyone switch out radios to see how connection goes. I live in a city that has the HSPA+ from T-Mobile and there are times I can't get voice to work on Miri 6.5/Bangers 1.3/2.12 (the latest) radio.
I am using chuckydriod with radio 2.12 and android build hyperdriod 1.2 using latest michyprima R11 kernal with axi scaling.
I have excellent radio performance in the following modes.
GSM only
Wcdma only
Dual mode rarely switches to GSM even when wcdma is dropping data connections in high GSM signal areas wich is a bug in my opinion.

Pure gold
Downloaded the Desire HD beta2 Android and i use the "rootfs" from that build...
Have not had any "zero-drops" at all, and i have signal in some bad areas where i had nothing before...
facing this problem too
using hyperdroid 1.5 and 2.12.50.02
I upgrade my radio to the newest one 2.14 on meedj's evo sense warm 1.0 thinking that it would help my phone signal, but it didn't help. Then i started messing around with my "network settings" and to my surprised it seemed to help. My cell signal still fluctuate but it never reaches "no bar".
Here's what I did:
Go to seetings, then wireless & network, mobile networks, network operators, then wait until you get 4 or 5 signal bars and click on "select automactically". I don't know what it does but it helps me and I hope it helps you too.
Note: you can also select "search network" and manually add your network in, it doesn't hurt trying. [/COLOR]
Let me know if this works for you.

[Q] HSDPA issues on Android

hello everyone!
i'm having issues in the 3G HSDPA network conection...

i have talked to my Cell Operator the say that thier network is fine at my area and i think they are right cause i get full signal and the HSDPA uplink icon
but while using the conection i'm having these issues.
my question is:
can it be ROM/Kernal related? i'm using HyperDroid CM7 2.1.0 r10
if so what can i do?
will the internet will be more stabe on WM6.5?
cause idc what OS i'm using i know how to use them all and all of them are quite comftable to me the reason i use Android is for Whatsapp only since it's not available to WM6.5/WP7...

just to inform you that, they said that to me. the signal is good in my house, even looked up online 3g coverage for my area and says excellent, but i only get mobile internet in my house, but when am out and about or even at work i get constant HSDPA (Starts from when i take 2 steps away from front door), which it doesn't bother me considering i use wifi at home, so that might be the same issue your having, IGNORE what your operator says all they can really do is give you apn settings and hope for the best then it goes down the your handset, the only thing that can really stop you also is the radio you have and going by your signature you have latest one, so go the shop or somthing and test it to see if it improves...
I had the same issues for ages signal dropping out all the time and slow speeds I tried all the different radios and roms and everything, I can't confirm because I'm no dev but I think it was down to the kernal I only use the tytung r10 latest with 2.15 radio

is there a 3g survey on the market for your area? because apparently its meant to be very accurate the one i use is UK 3g Survey and tells you precisely how much 3g connection your getting say like 3g 30% 2g 70% / 3g 80% 2g 20% you get me point anyways... look it up

thanks for your replay...
i'vw tested the internet outside and no change.. in fact it happends in 4 cities that i have tested it today!!!

does the internet actually work or does it just not load? because if so its your apn settings you can get them of google or your network provider

Do you see the roamming icon (R) in the coverage bars?
Check your apn settings in mobile networks. Google the values but the only thing you should change is the mms port and proxy to 8080 and 216.155.165.50 respectively
