Hi
since last week i got this weird bug where when i activate 3G connection i loose all my Reception, buy only activating Data it works fine, but 3G just shuts down the Reseption.
anyone else get this problem? or did anyone know a solution?
thanks in advance
how on earth do u enable and disable 3g?
In the setting menu under enable Data usage!
i think its only available on t-mobile handsets
On my unlocked Omnia it's under Cellular on the Settings menu (which I swear said something else before I had the antenna repaired!).

I got a new HTC touch 3g from Asia and have frustrating problem. On ATT network in US, when the call network switches between 3G and Edge the phone network becomes zero ( no bars) and the calls drop.
This is extremely annoying as the ATT network continuously changes from 3g and edge when driving/walking. Is there anyway to switch off 3g/edge because I don't have a data plan and I don't use the phone for internet.
Or is there a way to force it to be only edge?
Any help would be great!
do a search for nodata.cab, it's originally form the Modaco forum but i've seen it over here too, works great!
Thanks! Downloaded and changed the settings in nodata.
Any ideas how I can test that this works? I still see "E" next to the phone bars.
Thanks a lot.
I think this is no solution: NoData only stops data-connections and does not affect the connection-band that is used for communication with the base-stations of the network (for speaking and data). Your problem are the calls not the data connection that you do not use, IMO.
Try this: "Start/Settings/Telephone/Band" (translated from German). There you can preselect the Band(s) that is (are) used for communication globally.
Thanks. I don't have anything called "Band".
I tried using Bandswitch...has anyone tried it?

This sounds good, I do not know the exact English nomenclature because I have a German version. What type of network is displayed next to phone bars now?

You're right! i was mislead by the question (how to turn of 3G or Edge).
Anyone else having this problem? can't call while this is going on, changing network to GSM ONLY kind-of fixed it but now i'm stuck without 3G& i dont even use Data on my phone plan, so anyone having these problems should go about setting it to gsm only.
Hey again everyone, I posted a question earlier about a possible radio issue on a HTC HD2 I unlocked from O2 UK today and I'm now using it on T-Mobile. Basically my problem is that I can access mobile data while my signal is T-Mobile only, but as soon as it switches to T-Mobile/Orange (these two networks now share each others signals), the H (3G icon) turns into an R (stands for Roaming, amirite?) and I get a notification telling me that I've lost connection because I left my home area with roaming not turned on... However, with roaming on I can access the internet constantly, but I'm worried about incurring hefty data roaming charges so I don't think that's a solution.
The phone is running an Android ICS ROM (the NexusHD2 one, thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434860), it was locked to O2 UK and it's now running on T-Mobile/Orange. Also WiFi, GPS and calls/texts work so I doubt it's a radio issue.
Been searching the internet for a while now to find a solution and can't find one, if you can find a thread with the answer please link me
Thanks in advance!

IMO it's not a radio issue!
You should contact your network operator and ask them about this and extracharges for that (strange kind of) roaming...
I once experienced some issues on data roaming while having Wifi turned on. Turning it off made it work fine on my tytungs ICS.
Hi,
I seem to be having issues with my S3 (on 3) where if it rolls back to GPRS when out of 3G/HSPDA coverage it will then not switch back again when I enter 3G coverage.
Has anyone heard anything similar, more with the phone than the network in question (Three)? I recall hearing one of the phone support people mentioning that this was a known issue, but can't recall if it was this exact problem.
Anyone?
Thanks.
Hi all
The past 2 days I seem to be having an issue with intermittent 4G coverage...
It will connect to 4G but have a small X next to it in the top menu. I receive no internet however.
What does the X mean as I can't find the answer anywhere, and is it an issue with my phone or my service provider?
I am on EE UK and running 7.1.1 Beta NPF10C
I have restarted, turned on and off airplane mode, reset my APN to no avail.
Anything else you need to need to know I will provide
Thanks in advance
I have had the same problems occasionally & I think it's an EE fault. It basically means you have a 4G connection but no internet access. Toggling mobile data off, waiting a minute or two, and re-enabling seems to get a new connection.
