that "E" your getting stands for "Edge" which is 2.5G, The "H" is "Hsdpa" which is 3.5G so, its better that your able to get that "H" then when it says "3G" and simple is run thru tmobile's towers but uses teh apn of "simple" a "simple" google search turned up this for the first result:http://androidforums.com/behold-2-s...265-behold-2-simple-mobile-apns-settings.html

[Q] Cyanogenmod Defy Baseband T-Mobile UK best choice

I'd like to ask UK T-Mobile users which is the best option to pick under the Defy Baseband settings.
I think I am using the United Kingdom T-Mobile 2.51.1 option at the moment but when my signal switches to the T-Mobile Orange signal I lose my 3G/HSPA signal therefore losing all internet connections.
Does anyone else on T-Mobile suffer this? Is there a better option to pick in the Baseband setting?
Thanks

I get the same thing on my Desire (CM7.1 with Data Roaming and National Data Roaming options ticked under Settings, Wireless & Networks) - data works fine when on the T-mobile network (I'm a T-mobile customer) but then when it switches to T-mobile Orange the data connection is dropped. Phone calls and texts still go through as usual, but even when I go back onto the T-mobile network the data connection is not restored and I have to go into Airplane mode and then out again to enable it.
Is there any way I can pin down why this problem is happening? A previous thread on this topic in the forums just went backwards and forwards with some people saying they had no problem and no problem solving steps being offered other than to check that data roaming and national data roaming were ticked in the Wireless & Network settings.
Sometimes, also, the Android browser will be able to browse webpages while Dolphin HD will not. This problem is nowhere near as consistent as the above, though.

Defy T-mobile Uk optimal baseband settings
Just thought I would add, I'm also seeing this behaviour on reconnecting to T-mobile Orange data. Looks like they are still merging the networks.
Does anybody have an update on the best baseband to select?
I am on CM 7.2 Kang Cherry picks defy plus with GB kernel.
Thanks

Have same prob t Mobil sim but switched to orange its the default when no T-Mobile signal have had sharing taken off sim but still orange as default boo

Why not try a few. Start with the highest number (4...)
Could be the fault of the network. You can always try to send a mail about this to t-mobile for more info.

[Q] Unlocked HTC HD2 Data Problem

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.

reply plz

[offtopic]You also could consider better title for your topic.[/offtopic]
About your problem, there should be nothing special to use internet with 3G.
Like "Saunalahti" users maybe you should tick "roaming" on in the settings menu.

plz check and reply
i have installed aurora 2.10 and also with new kernel test 2.10.
i have always two problam
one problam with 3g sim
but i couldn't understand yet why my 3g sim is not connecting with internet
i have already checked all options.
Second problam in 2g sim
It does not give service provier name "no service" on status bar.
signal bar colour always white when i connect wifi then signal bar colour is changed into the gray colour.but my main issue is 3g sim which not running internet and rebooting again and again while setting.

the best thing for you to do right now is to first check the sim on any other handset . it would just take few minutes . i am saying this because your problem is pretty weird and i think problem is without your sim . have u tried any other rom ?

didn't work yet
yes i have already checked official it's also show same problem,and
Sim is working also in usb stick.
Can you explain about apns setting?

Another hint is the APN settings. I recall I have 1 SIM which is only data and can be used in 3G USB provided by carrier. But when I put this "data-sim" into my U8800, it doesn't work, tho it recogonizes the carrier name but not able to connect to the internet at all.
It turns out I have to rename the APN to another one if you use a 3rd party 3G internet device. Hope this helps...

try another modem, use ICS or JB modem , when ROM is ICS or JB , from My Android Collections

nevermind it wasnt a phone problem, just this phone doesnt like vodafone. i switched over to another carrier and now it works great
