how do access the Internet settings such as change dns serer address

I don't see the DNS anywhere but there are a lot of options if you go to the Browser->Menu->More->Settings

Anyone else have a G1 with no internet connection?
I got mine the morning of the 22nd, and since then I've not been able to access the internet by either means of Edge or 3G. I also live in a very good 3G coverage area. Anyone else having this issue?
I called T-mobile, they escalated it up to engineering and told me they are working on it. Was told I'd more than likely get called back today, and i didn't... Seems everyone I know has no issues with the net and their new G1's.. Anyone here having this problem?
I'm liking the phone OK, but for the 349.99 and 30 bucks tax (I wasn't eligible for the upgrade)and 4 hours in line... I'd like the internet to work out of the box. .
Half tempted to get the Touch Pro, since it appears to be at a local best buy...

I had a HTC diamond touch with WM6.1 same processor pretty much a kickass phone and I can tell a big different when it comes to internet speed.I don't live in a 3G area but the G1 browser is faster than Mobile Internet Explorer and Opera.Mine started working out of the box.
If I were you I would go to your Tmo store and ask and think about the other phone....it's gonna be more expensive too.
See ya.

I did for the 22nd
the chick put the g1 data plan on the wrong line, so I got no joy till I called and had it fixed then waited 8hours for the setting to change...
but now all is well
bhang

Does anyone else's EDGE randomly go off and on? And not the no-service so no-edge thing, i mean i'll be in the same position and it will randomly disappear and reappear...other times it just doesn't connect.
another thing PLEASE HELP WITH...
i have cincinnati bell and they recently rolled out Dual-band WCDMA 1700/2100 network.
is this NOT the same as t-mobiles? i partially bought this phone because it would work with cinci bell because they were both on the 1700/2100 band, but apparently not because i can't get 3g signal...well i've seen it flash 3g before for like 1 second but then it goes away.
any suggestions? i also have mms troubles but thats another thing i'll worry about after fixing my current problems.

I'd guess you need to change the APN settings. Google "g1 att apn" and you should get plenty of instructions for AT&T. Just modify them to work with Cincinnati Bell. And yes, Cincinnati Bell is using the same 1700/2100 AWS-1 T-mo is using.

i have the correct APN - internet DOES work and has worked on all other devices using my current APN configuration.

Hm. Beats me then. Are EDGE and 3G rock solid right now with your other devices?

i hope thats it...EDGE works...most of the time. i haven't gotten G yet. i have no other device to test 3g on...except my brother's super un-smartphone nokia 3555 which displays "3g" at the top almost always...that's the only other 1700/2100 mhz phone that i know of.
hopefully this gets fixed in an update? also, should i delete all other APN's from the list besides my CBW one? and should i have a separate APN for mms and data (cause under the tmobile ones the apn type on the data is set to default and apn type under mms is mms...i copied this format...no luck either...mms still doesn't work).

EDGE and GSM is Smoothest across all HTC i have used.
and GPS is the fastest in all HTC Device may be becuase of Dedicated Antena on Body below Battery cover

I just received mine yesterday and have been using internet all day. the only problem i had was at 2am (gmt) i was dropped down to 2g. But that was a t-mobile problem, my PC broadband was dropped down to 2g also.
Both were back on 3g when i got up.
In you case it may be the phone, id phone up your operator. If your network isnt experiencing any problems then you should send your phone back.

Problems with tethering on HSPA+

I have a g2 and while iam at work, i would lose the hspa signal while iam tethering there. My signal would work fine but once i tether it would lose it signals and get no bars hence i got to restart my phone. But while using 2g only i can stay tethering and never get disconnected. Do you guys think the problem is my phone a defect? or is it because maybe t-mobile gots the new update coming out and it would disconnect you since we didnt pay the 15 fee or whatever. I didnt get the new OTA update yet for the official tether. I am rooted and use diff tether apps including pda net.
I was wondering if anyone have the same problem or is it due to the fact that the update will solve this problem. OR do i need a new replacement?

no help , or is it my hspa 4g network is bad around my area

[Q] Samsung Focus can do HSUPA?

just came across this article about the Samsung Focus is HSUPA capable, but off by default...similar to the HTC Inspire supposed 4G and Motorola Atrix...
http://samsungwp7.com/blog/2010/12/...boost-hack-enable-hsupa-not-on-by-defaul.html
and it's a tutorial on how to enable it through the diagnostic menu
can anyone confirm this??

I'll give it a try when my Focus arrives in the mail.

yes there is a thread here about this...

I just purchased my phone the other day and on the top of the phone next to the USB port is a sticker that says "Qualcomm 3G HSDPA."

*Slams face to desk*
I never recognized it. I did, but never read it

Any idea if there is a way to enable 3g for t-mobile with the htc surround? I have mms working but no data yet... also would flashing a different radio to it help?

not possible. HTC surround is att exclusive and att 3g works on a different frequency than mobile, and its not possible to modify the internal 3g antenna frequency. You may be able to get 2g (edge) working tho. Your best bet is sticking to free WiFi areas

3G connection issues

I'm having random 3G connection issues on my Samsung Focus.
At radndom times 3G connection is lost and the only way to get it working is to turn off and on the phone.
I tried putting the phone into airplane mode, turn off/on data, turn 3G off/on, nothing works, only a reboot works.
Today I checked my email on my phone and it says;
Last updated 4 hours ago
We're having a problem connection to exchange.xxx.com. Try again later.
Last tried 2 seconds ago
Error code: 80072FA8
This error shows up on all 3 emails I have setup.
IE doesn't work, Zune, any app requiring 3G connection.
And this happens at random times, at least once a day.
The phone has the lastest updates and is jailbroken.
One other thing to mention is, the phone is now having the 3G connection issue but i have it theathering to my computer and the internet connection is working while theathered, cause i'm posting this email.
I have no idea what's happening or how to fix it.
Thanks

same with me. are you using another carrier ???
Mine is unlocked AT&T Focus, when I'm using indosat (IM3) carrier, I'm having this issue. I downloaded Network Profile from Samsung Zone. After reboot the device, the network profile still pick AT&T, and I can't change it to my carrier.
Then I tried change my carrier to 3, after reboot the phone, the network profile changed to 3 INA. And after that I haven't got that issue till now.
Not sure what caused this. But when I looked at the registry there's a bunch of duplicated APN settings.

I had a similar issue, Focus AT&T on EU network.
Chevron unlocked and enabled the 3G toggle.
From time to time, I couldn't download from Marketplace or use the 3G connection. That was before I updated to NoDo. I haven't experienced this again since I updated.
To fix that, I used to toggle 3G off and on again after 15-30 seconds.
Sometimes, even that didn't work and I had to leave 3G off. Any lower data connection was working while 3G wasn't.
Speaking of data connection, not everyone is aware that after updating to NoDo, HSUPA is disabled on AT&T.

I'm having the same issue.
I´m using an unlocked at&t samsung focus at my local carrier.
I have this issue a few times a day, and the only way to restore my internet connection is rebooting.
I have noticed that this happens when my phone changes to Edge and goes back to 3G again. The issue doesn't seems to happen every time, but sometimes I lost connection.
Did you managed to solve this?

Same here
Using it with mtvmobile italy
Have to reboot everytime

I was having the same issue, being unable to connect to 3G. Just go the first page after Googling: set att apn. AT&T users should put in the APN, username and password. Hope it helps! It worked for me. =D

I´ve the same problem, here at Costa Rica with my focus which is not unlocked nor jailbroken

LTE does not work anymore (G600K)

Hi All,
I bought this LG G6 (G600K) from HK a month ago. It was working perfectly until few days ago when the LTE stopped working. In the notification bar I can see LTE, but there is no data going through. E.g.: messenger shows "Connecting...". Basically no 4G internet any more. So I did my research and these are my findings:
If there is no LTE coverage, the phone switches to 3g and it works - so the problem is only with LTE, but LTE is everywhere nowdays
In this Korea Telecom ROM there is no way to configure to only use 3g (CDMA only), not even in hidden menu - this could be a remedy, but would not solve the issue
Wifi also works
I did Factory Reset twice (also Network settings reset), did not help
I waited for an update from KT, maybe contains a fix, but did not help
I went to my operator (TELENOR Hungary), and they have checked my subscription, and they said everything is ok, but they can see that my phone does not connect to the LTE system.
I tried my SIM in an other phone, and LTE works perfectly
So based on these facts, I can't think of other than the phone has a hardware issue. Do you have any idea how can I investigate further?
Thanks for any suggestion.

Have you made sure data roaming is turned on as you have Korean model, I had to enable data roaming to get mobile data as the device thinks that's exactly what it's doing.

Unfortunately it is grayed out. But 3g works and 4g worked before. I have not changed any settings, just went away.

Did you fix the problem yet?? I also have same situation like you.........

Hi, sorry to hear. I could not solve yet. I went to the 3rd line support of the operator, but they say everything is fine from their side. So I'm waiting for a custom ROM, or I will change my operator. If you can, send back your phone.

Well i just found temporary fix for grayed out data roaming..this method worked to me
download quickshortcutmaker from playstore open app and switch to normal search find roaming click on roaming - global roaming - create... you can enable data roaming from there..
And for manual network switch LTE /3G : quickshortcutmaker - normal view - network -networksettings global
Hope that helps
Sorry for my bad English..

Wow, thanks. This is working as a remedy. You are the hero of the day
