Hey guys,
iam needing to use my XDA in 2 countries, both with local providers, however i have contacted the providers of each country and they have been unable to help me with the internet/GPRS settings i need. I would be very grateful if somebody could help me with this or point me in the right direction.
The networks are as follows:
Istanbul/Turkey- Turkcell
Romania - Connex Kamarad
Many thanks in advance
Hey Guys, I'm traveling to Italy and Greece. I searched for the Carriers I'll be using while I'm there here for the SMS Settings but found nothing..and PicCell the place I got it from has nothing on the website.. well the carriers I'm using TIM Italy and Telestet Greece...any help would be appreciated.
I love the idea behind it and as someone who uses a lot of the stuff in Komplete, being able to easily categorize
sounds would be a huge benefit

what you talking about lol
Cant help you with your carriers (well, I do know that Italy also has WIND, try a search for that name) BUT I *do* know you do *not* need to change your sms settings when roaming. You will be able to text using your current settings. Same applies for GPRS etc -- as long as your network and the foreign network have a roaming agreement in place.

Why not?
All 3G phones work in Japan as long as you are using 3G service.
At least Softbank and Docomo.
works fine in JAPAN
Thank you very much for the info !!!

hi Kitano,
are you using a local Japanese SIM card?
If so, which Phone Company? Softbank? Docomo? Does SMS, email etc all work fine? data browsing? Google maps?
Howie,
did you roam? or did you use a local SIM?
Thanks
Scott in tokyo (In Hong Kong in 2 weeks, and will be shopping for an unlocked phone there to bring back to Japan)

all HTC phones are not locked in HKG
As long as it is 3G card, then it should work.

Thanks for confirming what I had heard! Definately want to get my phone while I'm in HK.
What I'm concerned about is that they might do things differently in Japan (so you HAVE to buy a Japanese phone), so wondering if all features work, in particular SMS / mail etc... Has anyone actually brought a phone to Japan? How did it go?

Touch HD will work with Softbank and Docomo SIM, however, both work little differently.
With Softbank SIM, SMS works, no MMS. email...depends on the definition but PC based email, such as yahoo mail, gmail is OK. however, Softbank mail (email on mobile phone, very similar to MMS) can not be configured as MMS.
There are way of configureing this by some utility software build by user group, but basicaly information such as server names, access point, ID&password is not officialy disclosed from Softbank.
Internet access is OK, but access to Internet by default configuration (which is automaticaly configured when Softbank SIM is detected by HD) will use access point which is not fixed cost service. Which means you may end up paying a lot of bill.
With Docomo SIM, SMS is OK, No MMS. email such as yahoo mail, Gmail is OK.
iMode mail(email service from Docomo, similar to MMS) can not be configured. Docomo does not allow access to iMode mail server from non-Docomo devices.
Internet access is OK. I haven't confirmed on access point, but possibly similar to Softbank SIM.
(I only had chance to test for little while on Docomo, so not able to clarify)
I hope this information helps
Thanks Hiroakir
That's exactly what I wanted to know. Actually, it's more than I thought to ask! I didn't think about Softbank's unlimited data plan not applying. I'm a heavy data user (work exchange server mail)... so... I might buy in Japan.
Thanks again!
Scott
Inquiry about the Touch HD Radio version.
which one is the best to use in Japan?
i have a Touch HD and using Softbank SIM.
so far i have tried Radio version:
1.14 is not stable, it kept drop off.
1.13 is stable but not receiving a Full Bar (3 max).
Hi, I have a netmonitoring program and want to support cdma phones, but there are no cdma operators in my country. Please, contact me, if you can help with some tests. Thanks
Hello fellow tweakers,
I recently changed from provider. My current provider (tringg.nl) is using the network of an other provider (kpn.nl) in our country. This is called, what i know, national roaming.
The problem is that my HTC HD2 cannot see the difference between national and international roaming. Therefore I cannot forbid my phone to connect to foreign country providers. And I keep seeing that ugly roaming icon in the taskbar.
Does somebody have the same issue?
Or does someone have a solution to this?
Is there some way to change/overwrite the home network provider?
Thanks,
mrG1985
HTC HD2 (LEO)
With latest ChuckyROM WM6.5.x (WWE)
I hear people say that the iphone does not see this as roaming.
So how can we make this work on Windows Mobile aswell?
Anybody?
What you should do is download an app called 'dial up enabler/disabler gprs' (search for it on this site). Each time you go abroad you will have to manually turn off your data connection, but it works for me.
In the apps like Twitter, Weather, etc. you can check allow to download when roaming.
Dio, thanks for your reply.
I am aware of this app but i would like to fix the root cause.
There must be a way to modify the home network.
For the time being i will have to set every thing to roaming allowed.
