3g / Mobile Web Not Working

Hi guys - hoping someone can help me!
I've found the perfect droid build for my tastes and battery consumption, but the problem is, my mobile web isn't working! The 'G' or 'H' icon appears, with the 2 arrows, and the left hand side one flickers on/off every so often, but I don't get a connection.
Now, I freely admit that I'm not very good with stuff like this, so I wonder if anyone can suggest some things to try and get my 3g up and running? I pay for unlimited data on my contract, so I really could do with it!
Is it worth swapping radio, or don't you think that will be causing it?
MDJ FroYo Streak Lite v1.1
Using kernel that comes with this build
Radio 2.12.50.02_2
Winmo ROM is Chuckydroid
Cheers guys

Bump.
It's not the APN settings as I've re-entered them. Any suggestions?

Sounds like the ROM, that specific ROM has had data issues. He's got a newer version, I'd download that and try it out, or back-up your ROM and plug-in a new kernel and see what happens.

Thanks man. I guess I'll try a different build - gutted though, as I love everything else about this one!
My phone has also taken to randomly restarting itself, or just switching itself off too. That's very annoying. It's done that on the last few rom's I've used. I might just go back to WinMo soon if it keeps doing it - it's pissing me the hell off, as for some reason, texts sent when my phone is off, don't come through when it comes back on.

well no recent ROMs i've used have had any of these issues. Check out my set-up in my sig. Maybe flash NRG and 2.15.50 and see if you still have these issues.

Please Someone Help me, What is wrong with my Phone!!!!

Alright im not going to lie to you, i dont know much about the adroid build but i managed to figure out a way to install adroid on my phone
HTC DESIRE
mod version: darkstone HD2 Froyo V3
Build number: DeFrost HD2(A0SP FRG83+CyanogenMod)
Okay so everytime im on my phone, i always lose internet connection when im on 3G, like it spans for about 10-15 minutes and then it will disconnect me. Then i have to turn on airplane mode and then turn it off and it will enable my 3G again, if i turn on the 2G network, i can use the internet for alot long but it still manages to disconnet me along my 3G. So now im mind boggled of why it constantly does this for no reason.
I tryed updating my radio but when i tryed putting the different radio on my phone, my htc screen would just stay at the 0% and it wouldnt upload onto my htc. So i had to take out my battery and start from square 1 again. Also does anyone know why my battery life is so terrible?, i fully charge it and it only lasts for about 6-7 hours at most. It frustrating because i absolutely love the adroid vs my windows 6.5 OS. So if anyone of you can please help me with this problem.
Do i need to install a new build? or tell me how to correctly update my radio, something, are my apn settings wrong? like i just dont know. So if anyone can help me, it will be greatly appreciated, thank you

Mate - this is the HD2 forum. You should be asking here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=594
Very few people in the HD2 forum will have any clue as to what your problem is. More people in the relevant forum will have help for you.

i had the same problem. not QUITE so bad, but i'd have to reset/toggle airplane mode. turns out tmobile thought i was using a different phone. i called them up and they my device to the HD2. it's a different style plan (same price) as before. it fixed it for me.

[Q] Im new and need help

Ok i've had my hd2 for a while.I wanted to sell it because it was boring and i didnt find any cool apps from windows market.So i found out i can put android on it,so i did and put Android 2.2 Froyo on my HD2.And now its a lot better.But now it drains the battery pretty quick, i dont really mind that.Today it ran out of battery and i started to charge it and tried turning it on,it would turn on but stay at the T-mobile screen and not load.So disconnected the charger i took out battery and rebooted it multiple times then i searched on google.And i took out the sim and sd.And now it turned on.But now im wondering if it will happen again if i continue using the Android on my storage card.And can anyone teach me more about this what i should know about things i can do to make my phone better,im new i dont know anything,i just saw a topic about flashing an hd2 ,i dont even know what that is.I would also want to know of what could possibly happen if i keep runing Android.I also want to know more about different Roms(i think thats what their called,idk im new to this) that are better and safer then the Android im using now.

How do I know if I installed Froyo 2.2 correctly?

Is there anyway to run a diagnostics to see if anything is up to par? So far the only thing I've noticed is the Swype keyboard doesn't work. I have to manually type every keep instead of swiping them..

So I got the swype, voice to work. When I try to turn off the phone it gives me three choices. One is to power off, two is to reboot, and three is boot loader. Which is the best route? Every time I turn the phone off and turn it back on it boots in WinMo6.5 I have to go through files to the storage card and boot froyo2.2 from there. It won't boot it from 6.5 even though it gives me the option. Sorry for the questions. I'm knew to this and trying to learn. Lots of pages to read and I am 100% sure I missed some very important information.

You have to have it run off the NAND, if you dont want WinMo.
And there is no such thing as best route to turn it off. If you want to shut it down hit "Power off" if you want to restart hit "Reboot" , "Bootloader" doesn't work for us so it's the same as "Reboot"

I''ll read up on the NAND I don't know what that is yet. Problems I'm experiencing so far now that I have played around with the phone is the battery. It doesn't last as long and stops charging after 88% I think because I have Froyo on my storage card and on the actual phone memory. It doesn't boot up every time either. I have to reboot the phone about 4-6 times before Android kicks on. 90% Of the time the network fails and I have no internet. I think I might of not installed the Radio correctly. That might be my problem.

I think it was a generell problem with SD ROMs.
Just try to fully load your HD2 in WM and start Android after that.
Think that was the solution. Long time ago...
If you don't like WM 6.5 anymore ( i hope so.. ), you could try to "install" Android in the NAND of your HD2. That means, that you havn't WM6.5 anymore. If you start your phone, Android will boot, and not WM (make sure you backuped all the data before doing this.. contacts, pictures, ...).
Of course you can switch back to WM6.5, if you installed Android in the NAND.
There are many guides in this forum and its very easy to do (here is one of 1000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893948).
And i think there is no "wrong installed".. if you did something wrong, android won't start. If an app (for example swype) won't work, it's maybe a bug or something.

Already tried that. Even went as far to download MAGLDR V1.13, and the DFT. DFT doesn't work. Says there is no readme.txt so it stops installing.. So I'm stuck on the black screen. Been working on it for the past several hours trying different tutorials, youtube video how to's and nothing. All end up the same while trying to install. " No readme.txt found"

Well I don't know what the hell I did, but I got android on there and it isn't the version that looks like the one found on a stock G2(USA) It's a weird android system I've never seen before. It's actually pretty cool. When I reboot my phone it boots into Android.
Edit: I think it's the Android 2.3.3 or something Gingerbread for the HTC Desire... Only thing wrong so far is that I have no data connection. I can call people, but I can't connect to the internet.. Any suggestions ?
Edit: It's 2.2 not 2.3, but When I googled up the loading screen it shows the HTC Desire with the same screen.. I don't know. Just guessing here.
Edit: Yea My phone thinks it's an HTC Desire. Is that probably why my data connection doesn't work?

Search that Rom's thread, no data connection issue has probably been discussed there

There is 645 pages in that thread and most of the pages I read no1 is experiencing this problem..

Okay my problem is the mobile network settings. I copied the ones off of my G2 phone, but it seems it's not compatible with the HDC HD2 running on HTC Desire android system... I don't know. I'm at a loss. I tried searching to see if I can find the network settings for this phone and am having bad luck today....
Edit: now 3g and 4g (H) is showing on the phone. Not sure if It's perminent or just glitching.. Will update you guys tomorrow.

So far everything is working great. Including the network . Anyway to get swipe to work? I can't find it in the phone settings .
