Hi everyone,
Is anyone having problems with the three (3G) sim in australia ?
I am currently unable to send sms and cant access the settings -> personal -> phone -> voice mail and sms settings. Is there a third party program that can fix this issue ? or some sort of a registry hack ?
Also everytime i soft-reset the xda sometimes it tends to be very long before a carrier can be detected (contracted with vodafone). Sometimes its only a matter of seconds but sometimes it can take up to 5 min without signal. Im guessing its jus a roaming issue, but has anyone come up with a way of solving this ?
Any help is appreciated ..
Cheers guys
Just interested, your ID says Optus, you say you have vodafone sim in your XDA II and your also are on a 3G network.
sorry ... maybe i should've been more clear ....
currently I have 2 numbers 1 optus and I got a new Three sim. I use the Three sim in my xda now but since the xda does not support 3G network, instead on being on the Three network, they will put me on the vodafone network as Three have a roaming contract with them. (so disregard the whole optus thing).
Three have their own 3G network in Australia but when out of coverage, they will use the more extensively covered vodafone (GSM) network.
I dont think roaming will cause problems with sms :evil:
but anyway ... thats my main problem atm. I can put up with the delayed carrier signal upon reset but the sms is a real pain.
does that make more sense ??
im in brazil and bought a prepaid TIM sim card.. everything seems to be working fine.. i was wondering if anyone had the internet settings so i can get my internet and emails working... thanks

Hi guys,
I own a 32B HTC Magic (from Vodafone Germany), and have been able to use my Virgin Mobile (Australia) SIM card, but have only 1 issue, I can't seem to get 3G working.
I know I have a 3G capable SIM, because it has been used on a Nokia 6110 Navigator at full HSDPA speeds. I'm curious, is there a strange lock that ensures that I can only access 2G and WLAN networks? Is there a work-around that I need to sort out to get access to 3G?
Thank you
Hello everyone
Did enyone now did that phone work on three network in england...?
Currently i'm on contract with three network & want to buy hd2 but im not sure is 100% work in three network.
Went to few mob seconhand but all hd2 was locked to t-mobile or vodafone so cant't testet with my sim card.
will appreciate if anyone can help
ps. sorry 4 my poor english
I'm with 3 and everything has been perfect up until recently when my phone stopped connecting to the internet when I'm at home/in the area around home. I have a strong signal but just can't connect to the internet. The strange thing is that:
- I have no problems connecting to the internet when I move to a different area/suburb
- Can connect to the internet when I stick my girlfriend's 3UK SIM card in the HD2
- Can connect to the internet with my SIM card in another phone.
The problem just seems to be with my SIM in the area that I live so I tried replacing my SIM card to see if that would fix the problem. Unfortunately it didn't so I'm not sure whether the problem is with 3 or the phone.
Sorry about the long-winded story. The point of it all is that I've encountered this funny problem, don't know what is causing it and 3 won't provide any support because I'm not using one of their phones.
I have an hd2locked on o2, and when I put another sim in it fails to register the network.
a friend came round last week and tried his 3 sim in my phone and it didn't even recognize there was a sim there at all, so I would be very wary of buying without trying if I were you.
I have been using the operator 3 for more than two years (different phone models) and I have never had any issue.
Currently, I use 3 on my HTC HD2 (Generic HTC - Sim Free) and works perfect.
The internet connection, email, mms, sms, everything works perfect.
im currently replying with a 3 sim in my htc branded hd2..
even though im on vfuk the signal is so poor that I got a 3 sim to test on their old payg 5quid unlimited net.
I get full hdpda signal and its much quicker than the same with vf when I can find a decent hspda signal with them.
seriously contemplating going to them full time when my contact ends with vfuk. as it stands I just use this at home for data and the vf for voice.
im on 3 network with a retail unlocked hd2 and can report no probs. hspda nice speed where i am, internet tethering fine to. cheers
I've got my hd2 from virgin it came unlocked but 3g signal is very weak indoors so I still use my old three card and it works perfect.
hi
thx 4 help
Three web show excellent broadband cover so hd2 should be work well.
The point of it all is that my contract is running out in 1march and three is offering me 750min 150txt 50videocall and internet =12.50£ 12month contract with some sony T715(warth90-130£ ebay) or 25£ 12month htc hero so If i will sell one of thoes phones on ebay will get money back and 12month contract will cost me around 30£ + htc hd2 around 400£= around430-450£
or
other option 1year contract with vodafone 40£/mount+84£ handsed cost =564£ 300min unlimited txt unlimited internet but fair usage policy of 500MB...?
Summarise Three=450£ vs vodafone=564£
any advice...?
Hi guys,
2 month ago I bought a secondhand S4 (KOT49H.I9505XXUGNH6 - ARMv7 processor - android 4.4.2) in Thailand for I´m on a bicicyle journey and wanted to use GPS navigation und Internet. For now everything went well.
Now I´m in Georgia and I want to use 4G Network via Prepaid Company "beeline". The phone connects only to 2G. In "network-mode" it shows only GSM and WCDMA, neither 4G. Even if I force the 3G Network it gives me the messages "Selected Network unavailable". I found out that the phone is a branded version from Vodafone Australia (VAU) - not a hunch how the phone comes to Thailand. Anyway.
Is there anything that I can do to unlock 4G Networks for my phone?
thx in advance
cheers ben
Make sure the sim card from beeline is a 4g card
