slow internet speed in my phone - Networking

Yes. just in my phone and to only one sim card. When I put the sim in my friend's mobile the speed is normal.
possible reasons: Before some day I went to my village and the network reception there is very bad. I couldn't open any pages(pretty slow) .Now I am back to my previous place but the speed is same. I dont have 3G network here.
I have GT-S7562 rooted(dual sim). the problem is only with one sim card and only on my handset. I tried with new GPRS settings, rebooting, flight mode,network searching, interchanging simcards... not of any help. Its been 15 days since.
So what could have gone wrong? help

do u have a data limit?

What do you mean only one sim card? If you put another simcard (ex a friend's sim) does the phone work correctly?
If thats true then you should try getting a new sim card from your provider.

Keep in mind that your data speed has many limiting factors. (Ex. Service strength/ the cell phones actual capability /geographical location or region) but depending on your service provider, it's realitivaly cheap for a new SIM card in many cases. Last time I needed a new one it was $15...

Did you try another sim in YOUR (not a friend of yours) phone? It might be the phone's fault.

thank u all. As I said the problem seems only with that only sim.. other sim cards are working fine on my phone. Anyway I dumped that sim & got a new one.. All works good now. Don't know what was the problem with that SIM card. even Tech staffs couldn't solve it.

After fr008 , no network signal

Hello
After I install FR008 , I LOST MY SIGNAL IN MY ARIA . I cann't even connect to the network at all . I keep getting no services or Limited services .
When i search Manually for an Operator I keep getting , the sim card can't be connected to ... .
HOW TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE ?
I have tried 2 radios .
1- liberty-radio47.41.35.10H_7.09.35.13-signed
2- liberty-radio47.54.35.20H_7.13.35.13-signed
HELO PLZ PLZ PLZ
Wow, odd. I had a similar issue. I would look at my phone and have no service (ATT in NYC - YOU GET SERVICE). Then maybe I thought it was my office building, nope. Also tried different radios. Nope.
Went to CM61.1 and never had another issue.
I had same issue randomly before. Though setting network types bring my signal back. In case you wanna try it:
- Dial *#*#4636#*#*
- Phone Info
- Bottom of the screen, try to change "Set preferred network type".

Something similar to this happened to me.
I had CM6, and (without thinking) did a factory reset of the phone (Settings/Privacy/Factory data reset).
When the phone rebooted, it didn't recognize the SIM card. I almost [email protected]#t bricks. The card wouldn't work in any other phone, but other SIM cards worked fine in the Aria.
The solution was to un-root/reinstall stock at&t Android ROM and take it to the at&t store. They replaced my SIM card.

Did the STC SIM card work in any other phone?
I'm guessing that when you flashed the ROM, it hosed the SIM card.
Please check to see if the STC SIM card works in another unlo.cked phone. If it doesn't then it's been damaged. If it DOES work in another phone, then there's something going on with how your phone is interacting with the network/radio software on the device.

It sounds like the SIM card is bad. You should get a replacement.
I'm not an expert on this, and can only suggest. If other cards work in the phone you're probably ok.

What error are you seeing? When I had a problem, the device said there was no SIM card present. It wasn't just "no service."
If an at&t card works on the phone you are fine. You just need to fix carrier issues.
If you want, unroot and load the stock ROM from at&t and try the SIM.

What didn't work?
I'm trying to help (with my limited knowledge).
It really sounds like the STC card is bad.
When you start the phone, do you see a big picture of a SIM Card displayed? If so, that means one of the following:
There is no card present
There is a card present, but it is inserted incorrectly or not completely in the slot
There is a card present, but it is either deactivated or damaged
If you DON'T see a big picture of a SIM card when the phone starts, then the SIM card is in place and not damaged. You may not have service (there is an "x" on the top left of the signal strength bars). But the card is still good. It's also possible the card is not provisioned for STC. They can re-provision it. Call them and tell them the phone's IMEI number.
I really want to help!

Ok...I think I'm understanding now. I didn't know you searched for networks and got the error message.
The error message "Your Sim Card doesn't Allow Connection to this Network" is a good indicator that the SIM Card is defective.
Try the following. If they don't work, try purchasing a new SIM card.
switch to Airplane mode and back again
go to Settings/Wireless & network/Mobile networks and check "Use only 2G networks."
Go to the dial pad and dial *#*4636#*#* and select Phone Information. Scroll to the end and choose "GSM only" in the drop-down box above "turn off radio"
Go to http://www.amta.org.au/pages/amta/Check.the.Status.of.your.Handset and see if your phone has been reported lost or stolen and re-branded (I'm not sure where you got it, but it doesn't hurt to check).
If all else fails, I suggest getting a new SIM card from STC Mobile. Explain that it just stopped working and you need another one. They may charge you a small fee, but at least the phone will work.
Good luck,
Dan
It's working Now .
thanks

[Q] no network coverage after installing wp7 on my hd2

just installed wp7 on my hd2 and after the start up my phone keeps searching for the network. have tried automatic network selection and tap to select but no luck. am using 2.15 radio. would appreciate any help.
goto your settings, scroll to cellular, then down to add apn, in the apn box type epc.tmobile.com and leave the rest blank.
this works with tmobile us
isn't that supposed to be only for the data connection? even without entering the apn the phone should be able to find the network for just making voice calls. so mine seems to be a different problem. the phone is simply unable to catch any signals.
from my understanding of the whole cell phone fiasco is the sim card has everything the phone needs to connect your providers tower and also tells your phone what services you have voice, data, etc etc, so it should setup voice automatically. i would try searching for the program (htc connection setup) they use to install the xml files it also sets your phone with the provider.
good luck.

Only search at the internet for your apn settings, enter them and voila you can use your data connection, nothing more nothing less and done in a minute. HTC Connection Setup don't work well but you have to use it later if you want to change phone type to HD7 for the Marketplace ^^)

yeah we covered that part, the concern is that the phone is/was not connecting to the towers
Maybe check out other Radio ROM. 2.15 should work well, but uses more battery.
switched back to winmo 6.5 for a while and the same radio worked fine (caught the signal etc.). Just now again tried to flash wp7 using 2 different radios, that is 2.12 and 2.14. Have already tried 2.15 with my first attempt, but the problem just remains the same.... 'no network found'. any thoughts? have even tried putting in the apn too. no luck
u know its funny cus its the exact same with mine exactley the same ive tried everything and it picks up the signals but it wont let me connect to any network at all... the phone is just fine except that one problem.. plz any body help us with this stupid problem

i was havin the same damn problem, and i just flashed the 2.11.50.26 radio, and boom baby!! instant network connection. no more 3 beeps and disconnection for me now to check battery life and wifi (no 3g in trinidad yet, so u can't test that)
sim lock...???
After trying different radios by flashing and re-flashing, I've noticed something I should mention. My phone dialer shows a sim icon with a lock on the top left of the screen. Does that shed a new light on things?
sim lock ???
hey sameer... I have the very same issue with my HTC HD2. It is unlocked and I am facing the very same issue that you are when I revert to WinMo 6.5 everything works fine with the same radio. I've tried almost every radio now and have no luck. However, the funny thing is that I do see the sim with a lock when I go to my dialer. I suspect the OS is SIM Locked, however, when in WinMo 6.5 every Sim Card is recognized and works properly
Any luck with the issue yet??
Let me know of your thoughts... btw I'm on Ufone's Network.
It's the sim card!
Problem solved for me and hopefully for salmanjavaid too!
I learnt it the harder way though, by which I mean that I spent money to buy an HD7 and after inserting my sim in my brand new HD7..... no signal again! oooops! Only then it occurred to me to try some other sim cards. My network is also Ufone here in Pakistan. So first I tried a Prepaid Ufone sim (the one with white and orange colour and 64K printed on the back)...and Lo and Behold my hd7 gets the signal and network settings and data connection works fine too! Other operators' sim cards like Telenor, Warid and Mobilink worked fine too. But when I insert the sim card which is in my use back again....no signals again! This sim card is a different version, perhaps not 64K and plain black color on the back.
A call to my Personal Customer Service Executive assigned by Ufone sets the next course of action. He'll bring a replacement sim card for me, when I get back home.
My suggestion to salmanjavaid: try other sim cards first. If they work then get a replacement sim card.
Hope it solves your problem too.
id give this a shot. I'm on vacations in Pakistan and have my Sim Card from O2. I will give it a shot tonight Thanks for the suggestion.

[Q] Microsim issue

I received my N4 a couple of days ago and had my vodafone (India) sim cut to a microsim. The microsim works perfectly on the iPhone and even on my DHD (along with the leftover adapter) but when I insert it into my N4 and boot the phone, the network signal lasts only for about 5-10 seconds (every single time). It recognizes the sim and even the operator name gets displayed properly in the phone status. After that it's as if there's no sim inserted. Isn't it weird?
I'm yet to try inserting another microsim but I wonder why the phone would reject the sim after a few seconds? Anyone has an opinion or theory on this?
I've tried resetting the phone but to no avail.

This. What did you use to cut it? A template and a scissors? Or did you have a specific SIM cutter that you got from a shop which offered such services? I got my SIM Card cut at a shop which had a specific cutter to cut SIM cards down to size.

The N4 is really picky with cut down sims. many users report problems with cut down sims. Sometimes those problems don't appear till later on. Best bet is to get a real micro sim.

Like I said, I read reports from users where their N4 read the sim for days without an issue. Then it began to fail.

[Q] Sim card broken.

Hi guy,
There is a strange problem with sim cards in my country (Romania).Every now and then you can find that you have no signal and your sim is "demagnetized" (thats what they say) and i have to play @ 10E to change my sim card.
This can happen 5-6 a year or not even once in 10 years.
And my question is: is this happening in your country too or is this just a mode of making money?

Here in the US, the only time i run into issues with a Sim card, is if changing phones... for example, the sim card would be an older type, and the phone woulnd't support it.
Other than that, i personally have not had a Sim go bad.
does this happen to multiple sim cards in one phone? or is this in different phones you observe this?
Cheers
