First, as you can assume, i have the HTC Hero...since i was not satisfied with the 1.5 version ( android ) i updated it to 2.1 ( Eclair version )..now the problem is that when i add the APN settings, it starts the 3G network and i don't have any option to "close" it...on the 1.5 version i had a the Wifi, Bluetooth and i think Data connection, but now only the Wifi, Bluetooth... so in a summary, i can open and close the wifi and bluetooth but i can't regulate the 3G network, when i set it, it starts and there is no way to turn it off...
So does anyone has an idea how to solve this?
Thanks in advance
How about when you hold the power button, do you get the "Mobile Network" option to select there?

No, just the silent option, airplane, reboot or turn off...
The irony is that when i turn Wifi on, the 3G also turns on...but when i close the wifi the 3G still works...
It seems i have the Nexus One software on my Hero, i received a mail from google, welcome to the world of Nexus one... OMG...

Maybe ask in that thread.
Or flash a diff ROM and see if you still have the same issue.

I will flash an other ROM, do you have any suggestions, which one is the fastest and most stable?

Im using MCR3.2. (Link in my signature). Fast and stable,... No issues whatsoever. But it is still only an Android 1.5 ROM. I'm planning on adding the 768mhz overclock kernal to it tonight, hopefully will fly like a Legend then.
Ooops,... Sorry
You not the only one with this puzzling problem wkulen! Same rom as you, and it seems I can't close 3g even with that APNdroid is set to be off! It looks like it still using data from 3g - hope not otherwise it could be a costly mistake!
i've got the opposite problem...
ROM: current official...
My 3g or data internet connection sometimes doesn't turn on when I switch off the wifi. But it happens most of the time, but not all the time. What I normally do everytime is to go to Settings/Wireless controls/Mobile network settings/Network operators - and I "select automatically". Then my network data kicks back in. It's a hassle but I don't know what else to do.

if ur on the rom that came with the device ur the problem but if u moded the rom sayin u downloaded a rom from xda or members then u need to go back to the rom thread u downloaded ur rom from and let them in that rom help u and always remember to do a search before startin a new thread
Did my research, im on stock rom location services enabled. No reception problems
But thanx anyway...
Are you connected to a PC? If so try this
On the Windows Mobile Device Center window under Settings click Connection Settings. Then uncheck Allow data connections on device when connected to PC and select The Internet for This computer is connected to. I don't recall much about activesync, but I think it has something similar.
I ran into a similar issue and this solved it.

It doesn’t work for me either. Actually, doesn’t work in Orlando area, but if I go to other cities here in Florida it does (on 3g or not)
The only way that I can make it to work here is turning on the wifi without connecting to any wifi, then turn it off and tap “ Uptade Now” or tap "update now" while the wifi is searching for connection.
ya i called t-mobile about this yesterday there sending me a replacement phone mybe its a hardware problem

Mmmm, I don't think it's a hardware problem, at least for me. It does work in other areas.
@ nardone, etc....are you all able to open google maps and get any localization there (either with or without satellites)?
On the few occassions I've had problems getting "my location" to update, it was cleared up as soon as I opened gmaps and got a full lock...so you can try that, at least make sure that it's not a hardware issue.
Hey, a fellow Orlando-an! I have the exact same problem with the My Location service here. I have Orlando put in as a manual location, and it updates every couple of hours as its supposed to. But for the My Location, it hasn't updated in 3 days.
Nothing more annoying than going outside in the blinding heat and sun to look down on your phone that says you are in the middle of a thunderstorm.
It doesn't seem to be a problem with the GPS or location system, as it updates my location fine(currently in Maitland, not Orlando, which is correct). But it doesn't download the weather for this location properly. Very troubling...

Go Magic!...
I'm not sure what's the problem. As I said it works on wifi and even when wifi is on and not connected to any network. It does work fine on Edge here in Orlando and also worked in 3G in Miami and Las Vegas.
I've been playing with it all afternoon at work(aren't they happy about that), and can't get it to update for the life of me. Tried turning on wifi, off and on HTC location service, disabling 3G, whatever I do it won't pull current weather data.
Maybe there just isn't anything to pull for Maitland, which is where I am at the moment, because the manual Orlando entry downloads fine. I wish there were a way to choose the location for my Cookie's hometab so it didn't show an incorrect thunderstorm.

Try Oviedo! lol j/k
There's actually an app around xda somewhere that lets you add cities that aren't in manila's database by default. I don't remember the exact location or name, but it works on multiple devices so it might just be in the general section. I'll try to look for it more when I get home later but you might find someone who remembers the name before I do, or just find it through searching.
It works!
For same reason that I don't know, my location is working fine today in Orlando, on 3G, H, and wifi...
Have you tried QuickGPS?? Works beautifully!!!!!
Make sure you have a data connection turned on... If you don't, it will not update automatically to your city or weather...
My HD2 refuses to update "my location", but it updates when am on wifi!!. have search the whole internett without coming to a solution. can anyone help?
It all of a sudden stopped working.
Yes, I have the same, it works via wifi and data line but not when connected to the computer.
Bye,
Itamar
Anyone?
Why can i update my location on WIFI and not via my phone network?
everything else is working just fine.
Frustrating!!
It should work, what you do is disconnect your data connection, turn of 3g and then on again, that normally does the trick!
Dont work, have also tried to flash back to stock rom(from Artemis), both 1.66 and 3.14. currently on Artemis V25.0, but also tried V36.0
Anyone else?
Same problem here. I'm on Energy Oct 13 Cookie, radio 2.12.50.02_2. Location update works for ca 12hrs and then stops working. After that update only via Wifi.
Any ideas?
Anyone?

What works for me is turning airplane mode off and then on again, annoying but it does work!
Maybe
Go to Start Menu, Setting, Connections, Connections.
Then click on Advanced and Select Network.
Try to change both Network.
Then launch QuickGPS and go update your locaiton.
(I said maybe ^^)
Does Google maps pick up your location? I think the weather location uses the Google API's.
Weather Updating Issues
been having this problem for a few day, with a few different roms including the new 3.14 from T-Mobile USA. Tried the toggleing 3g and the data connection and it worked

Yes. Google find my location.
it works in Oslo Norway, was there today, but not where i live. it worked before.
I've had this problem the last few days too. Presumed it was the custom ROM that I just flashed, as that's when I noticed (but I'd been running Android for a while so wouldn't have noticed before anyway).
As with others it works on wifi but not data connection.
Google Maps picks up my location.
Starting to think the problem is not our devices!
starting to think so too, as it works other places.
It works again!! havent done nothing, just started working again
well, really hope it stays like that!!!
Mine works now too!
task 29,28 and diffrent roms
i also had this problem for several weeks with a l26 leo v4.5 rom. my location would not update within sense. nobody else seemed to have the same problen. sr, hr, reflash of same rom would not solve the problem. then i found a new rom i wanted to flash and i used task 29 and 28 before flashing the new rom. after flashing my location would once again update and never had the same issue again.
hope this helps
it's a carrier tower problem and the way it accesses weather from accuweather. It happens to all htc devices from time to time. I suggest y'all check out here instead, much better weather app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707229
i'm bumping this. my HD2 now only says what County i'm in, not the Town.
But i have now got a Desire HD, and the Desire is showing what town i'm in?
What is that all about? i'm not the only one, why the Desire HD but not the HD2?
T-Mo HD2 Weather/Location/Time not Updating via 3G
My wife and I are experiencing the same problems too with our HD2's.
It started last Saturday (02-19-11) when I left the town my mom lives in (over 1.5hrs from me) for two days my phone was stuck on her town.
As for my "location settings", we've already removed all the other locations and have updated to the latest offical roms. Still nothing.
I started researching the problem some and came across this as a manual fix:
At the homescreen select Phone -> Menu -> Options... -> (scroll down to bottom) Band -> (Select) GSM and then close out back to the homescreen.
From here you can go and update your weather again and it works but the down side is now you're in Edge mode. To put it back into 3G, go back through the same steps and at the end select "auto".
I have also tried updating to the latest version of Google Maps and rebooted and still nothing. Yes, Google Maps locates me via GPS and my CoPilot8 also finds my location.
Even more confusing when I switch over to Andriod via SD Card, my weather/location update just fine. ARGH!
So any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi,
I apologize if it's the wrong forum or if I missed something in my search over the forums (and internet).
Current setup :
HTC Legend rooted, flashed with Azure 1.0.1 (cyanogen 6.0)
Kernel 2.6.29
Baseband 47.26.35.04u_7.05.35.26L
Issue :
For some reason I can't get my 3G connection stable. eg. When I enable Wifi - 3G drops (which is set up that way), but when I disable Wifi 3G doesn't come back up. Even though the settings are correct.
I'm having a hard time getting any mobile data correctly going, it generally requires me to enable/disable wifi and reboot the phone several times.
Basically I've tried factory resets, checking the settings (config of mobile networks too), it doesn't stay in 2G mode, ... I've test with other Cyanogen based roms and it's the exact same issue. Is it possible this is due to a radio being wrong or is it possible it's actually the phone?
So:
- 2G only is DISabled
- Mobile data is enabled
- wifi off
- settings (mobile connection parameters) are correct
- tried different roms
- checked in places I know I should get a good connection (My provider is Telenet, they use the Mobistar network, my previous provider was mobistar. So the coverage should remain the same.)
I am at my wits end and do apologize if this is a stupid question, but I can't think of anything else that could interfere with this.
Have you tried to leave the 2G/3G settings by default? That is, not to disable 2G. It is anyway switching to the best it can aquire, so if you have strong signal you should get allways 3G. I never had these problems with any ROM I've tried...nightly, Azure, RC1/RC2

Quick solution : put one of HTCs widgets for mobile network on your homescreen and as soon as you turn WiFi off toggle the mobile network widget and 3G should start working again . It's a hit or miss though.

Must have used the wrong keywords >.< Sorry. Though thank you for the link, it is EXACTLY the prob I am encountering. At least now I know it's not the rooting that caused it.
About the HTC widget : I've used it, but it's indeed a hit or miss. Best solution seems to switch to 2G and switch back to 3G that way.
Leaving all the settings at standard (and the most recent flash to the CM RC1) helped with the overall connectivity though.
My Moto G5+ got stuck in Airplane Mode although Airplane mode is actually off. I am not able to make any calls. Please help. Screen shot enclosed.
my guess would be that your cellular radio was turned off, or your service is actually down at the moment

Dial *#*#4636#*#* in dialer then go to phone information then try changing network preferred type.it will use different frequency to catch the network.
Thanks for reply i have tried changing band but m unable to turn on radio. So changing bands didn't help as bands work with radio and as my radio is off so bands r not making any difference. Still thanks for trying

Did you check your IMEI no as if it is zero then the signal won't come. And can you post a screenshot of it.
I have check the IMEI it's ok just when dailed *#*#4636#*#* it shows radio off. And when tried to turn it on it gets back to off. That's only issue. Thanks for reply
