HI Guys,
did a bit of a search, but couldn't come up with too much. I;'m in australia, and have a mate who imported a UMTS 900 DVP. He now wants to change operators to Telstra.
Their "Next G" network is 850. Is there any way to hack it, or even flash with an 850 UMTS version of the ROM?
Cheers
Mike

I am planning on going to a GSM 1800 country soon but I only have GSM 900 & 1900 (what i'm on now) listed as choices. Is that because of my current SIM card or is there a problem with my phone?
Thanks,
Daniel
Here a file to enable the band selection.
How do I run this?
It worked-
Thanks!!
I go to the States in August. Work the Magician in the USA ?
Thanks
Depends but most probably:
If you are going to be roaming with your current SIM card then find out which network you will be roaming on- if it's T-Mobile you will be fine because all the Magicians can work on he 1900mhz band- which T-mobile is. Cingular/ATT mostly is 1900mhz also but some rural areas operate on the 850mhz band- either way you should be fine, but find out who's service you will be on to be sure.

Thanks !
I use Proximus from belgium.
by the way, how u know gsm 1800 band missing? how u check it?
in the phone: Tools | Options and the tab Band is missing.
I have the band option, but I can only choose:
GSM 900 (europe)
GSM 1900 (North America)
Even after running the program in the second post.

This is the screen I am getting.

that's why I need to know how to run the program so I can get this extra
BAND option.
cheers

Hrb, what kind of Magician do you have?
I'm talking about a T-Mobile MDA Compact with a standard Rom WWE 1.10
And as told: I do have the Band Tab, but I can only select:
GSM 900 (Europe)
GSM 1900 (North America)
And Cong and Castiwo, have you ran the program and softreset the Magician?
I don't know how to run the program, that is the problem

Hey guys my ex-Orange is on Virgin AU these days, using it as a tethered modem but I need to lock down to 900 as the Opyus/Virgin 2100mhz 3G spectrum is saturated in Melbourne to hell with all these 2100mhz devices over the last few years, any idea where I can get an application to lock to 900mhz 3G ?
Im using the HK rom a kind XDA'er uloaded for us
Under "Start\Settings\Personal\Phone\Band" (translated from German) you can preselect some frequencies.
thats the problem ! the only option is 2100/900 mhz together, nothing else under 3G
try....
On my rom I have two things to change on that page:
Networktyp: There I'm able to decide GSM or WCDMA
GSM should help you with your problem.
Band: There I can select the frequencies, but as you mention, there are always a UMTS band included.
Good luck and regards from AUSTRIA.

Hello
Is possible to enable to band HSPA to 850 MHz?
my operator works with 850 MHz
My Wildfire is 900MHz
Looking in the internet I see that HTC Wildfire for Australia have this specification(850/2100)MHz
http://www.htc.com/au/product/wildfire/specification.html
Is possible get the rom or Radio patch of these Phones (Australia) and enable this feature, if the answer is yes, where can i get this rom? or exists other way to enable this feature
Dmonium
Excuse me if my english is so bad
No. The phones either support 900 or 850 Mhz (amongst other frequencies).
If you have a 900 Mhz phone ti will not work on 850Mhz no matter what software you use.
Likewise, my 850Mhz Wildfire will not work on 900Mhz networks
In WildPuzzle rom
Add to Home screen/Shortcuts/Activities/Settings/com.android.settings.BandMode
After start you can Set GSM/UMTS band
Automatic/Euro/USA/Japan/AUS/AUS2
I bought an European Optimus 7 and it shows on the box "WCDMA 900/1900/2100, GSM850/900/1800/1900"
There's any way to put this phone to work on 3G WCDMA 850 networks at full speed?
Thanks
I own a Telus version of Optimus 7. My phone has the 900 3G band on it. I will tell you how to check whether your modem supports 850 or not. First, you open up the dialer and enter ##634#. This will install the MFG app, that will be accessible through your app list. The password that it asks is 277634#*#. Now you have access to the manufacturer test/setting menu. Proceed to the Engineer Menu, and then Modem Setting, followed by Band setting. There, you should see all the bands that are available, and WCMDA basically means UTMS or 3G. If you have the 850 band, it should be available in this menu. There are two other things you need to do before gaining access to this band, if available. But in order for me to continue, I need to know which carrier you plan to use this phone on. I am going to assume you want to use this in North America and you have already unlocked it. Let me know, and I shall help you further on making your phone functional for a 3G connection. BTW, I am typing this on my Optimus 7...the keyboard is seriously great, and if it wasn't for the loose buttons, I would have absolutely no regret over my purchase.
Thanks.
I saw here, there are these options available:
1.Automatic
2.WCDMA Only
3.GSM Only
4.WCDMA 850
5.WCDMA 1900
6.WCDMA 2100
7.GSM 850
8.GSM 900
9.GSM 1800
10.GSM 1900
11.WCDMA 900
Sorry for picking up this old thread again but there is no final answer on this.
The point is that I'm having the same problem, I have a european E900 and I can see the WCDMA 850 in the MFG settings. So is this working?
I'm going to Thailand next week and wanted to use True Move 3G which is on 850 Mhz.
Ok, just for the record - I am in Thailand now and the 850Mhz 3G Network from True Move is not working on the European E900.
Hope this helps for those who were looking for this answer.
Hi,
Maybe a stupid question, but is it possible to connect the Galaxy 3 on a 3G network UMTS 850 MHz ?
I know the phone works with WCDMA/HSPDA 1900 -2100 and GSM 850.
But, I am in Costa Rica, and the 3G network is UMTS 850, so I was wondering maybe an software could help me.
Thx for you help
Regards
AFAIK it's not possible
