I was downloading a file on my TYTN from the microsoft site "framework 2.0"-something... using the phones network GPRS on "G" mode. The download took a long time and then it blocked the device. After a soft-reset, I could see the signal bars, but no "G" sign, just a "no connection" sign. Can't do/recieve call, sms or gprs... When I enter a 3G zone, all comes back to normal. But in G zones my phone is useless.
But if I'm on a 3G zone, and I chose the phone option to just use G, it connects fine! the G sign appears and I have no problems.
I upgraded to the last radio version, upgraded to WM6 and the trouble continues.
about 2 months ago I had a broken screen and change it myself. The phone worked fine for I month after that, I think it's not related but I opened the phone again just to see if I could had done something to cause this, but saw nothing wrong or burnt.
I've searched the forum and found nothing like this, can someone help me?
Thanks.
Sorry, I posted this in here too becouse this could probably happen in every model
Hello? noone? Help please.
Try clicking on the Signal Strength icon (those bars near the antenna icon), go Settings -> Band. And check AUTO there.
nope.
If I'm a 3G zone, and "band" is in "auto", I get 3G of course. If I'm just on a G area the problem arrises.
If I'm on a 3G area and "band" is set to "GSM" I get the G icon and the phone works fine...
Flash new radio upgrade.
I allready said I did that. no sccess.

I've had my tilt for a few weeks now and not yet have I seen the 3G or H icon pop up on my screen. Instead I'm always connected to the Edge network. I've tried installing a different radio to it, but all that did was make my phone load up to the point where its should get to the windows mobile screen then the screen would go black. I've used kaiser tweaks to enable hsdpa but still no luck. The only time i've seen the 3G icon is when i don't have a good signal and it'll show 3G for like to seconds and then it'll show I have no service. Then come back as Edge. Does anybody have a suggestion for me?
You don't mention or list where you live. Are you sure you're in a 3G area?
Look this and send your Kayser to warranty service, your 3g is broken:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
did you go into the comm manager and make sure that the 3g was turned on?
Got my TP 3 weeks ago. I am on Orange. Until this morning, everythig was fine. Very vey happy with my TP. Today, woke up and found "H" on the status bar for the very first time. Befire that it used to be "3G". Though , well getting HSDPA, good. However, with H on, i am unable to make calls or receive any. They go to voicemail. When i call, it just disconnects without dialing tone. Anyone else had similar problems? Any solution? I bought it from expansys, standard UK rom. Is there a way to switch hsdpa off? though it should work even if its on...... is set faulty or radio rom??? worried now. it was excellent uptil now
network's fault. Orange haven't programmed their network to cope with HSDPA properly.
start>settings>connections>advanced network
the settings to turn HSDPA on or off are in there.
Thanks mate. I was really worried that there is something wrong with my phone. But turning off HSDPA resolved the problem. So it was Orange's fault .
I will still be able to connect data session via 3G, isn't it??
Thanks again.
This is not specific to Orange...
I have problems maintaining an internet connection while making a GSM call on the touchpro too...
I used to get this same thing with my Kaiser on a roof in Hackney, if I disconnect the data session, it is OK again.
For some reason it was only there that this problem occurred for me. Other places had 'H' and voice calls working.
Cheers,

it's a common problem.
I know that Orange and Vodafone at least have this issue.
3 and T-mobile appear to be ok.
Don't know about O2.
Generally, it's the same throughout Europe as the networks tend to use the same hardware and software on all their infrastructure.
First this only happens where I work in the basement where only certain providers (eg Verizon) have some signal in only part of the room. I did not get signal on AT&T or T-Mobile Pay as you Go down here.
I noticed especially after I flashed the new radio which gives me better service overall that I get phone signal down in the basement, but it is GPRS of Unknown Network and says emergency calls only. I get up to 3 bars. If I scan for available networks I get the name 31064.
Does anyone know what network that is or what is going on?
Anyone have any ideas? (I will take wild speculation as well)
i wouldn't be alarmed by it. I experience this at my office since I work in the basement...haha
It's possible your basement just won't read a signal like mine. install a window by your desk, maybe that'll help, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with your handset.
Sounds reasonable. I would agree with no problems with my handset. I do get better signal than my nokia e51, so maybe it's picking up a slight signal where the nokia could not.
From what I've noticed, my Nexus S acts this way whenever T-Mobile (my provider) does not have coverage wherever I am, but AT&T (not my provider) does. You can check this by going into "settings" -> "wireless & network settings" -> "mobile networks" -> "network operators" .....it will then search for & tell you what network has coverage where you are. Every time I've had bars & it says "emergency calls only" & I've checked the above, it's always been when I had coverage from AT&T but not T-Mobile.
Thus, it seems to me like an "enable roaming for emergency calls only" kinda thing.
Emergency calls only
ha ha....lol... i also have the same issue on my brand new i747M S3. im confused.
i try the all methods for resetting phone.
i noticed when im on long way, i dont know my handset is goning emergency calls only. but when im restsart phone its fine.

i change the hand set to international i9305 brandnew one. i used it 2 sady without issue.... day after morning when i wakeup, i see the massege,,,,emergency calls only,,im confused becouse this is a brandnew one...after i called the friend he also got the i9305. i asked about this issue. he said me he didnt face to this type of issue.. im confused he said me try sim change.. i do it... problem solved....:victory:
problem is the SIM card......i changed it to new one... and used i week no emergency calls issue... when im going to low signals areas.. its show no network and automaticallly change to the network....im very happy for fixing this problem.....:laugh::laugh::laugh:
Hi All,
How do I make it so that my phone will not try and connect to the internet via 3G (the signal icon on the status bar has 3G written on it). Whenever my phone switches to 3G, internet doesnt work. this has been a problem for me here in Aus on multiple phones. While the icon says H, internet works awesome but the second it switches to 3G internet stops working until it switches back to H. It wouldnt be too bad, if it wasnt for the fact that the bloody thing switches back and forth every 5 seconds if Im in a good reception area, which is almost all the time.
Are you rooted/custom ROM? It sounds like it could be a poorly performing radio. Search for the radio/ril thread. You might find some answers there. You can switch your phone to 2G or 3G networks only, but the 3G option also includes H. So even if you left out the 2G you'd still suffer the same issues.
Hello fellow S3ers! I am David and I am new here.
I seem to be having a strange problem with my data network connection: My S3 is with Verizon and I have had it for several month now.
This morning everything was working fine down in FL and I hopped on a plane, set my phone to airplane mode, and returned to Philadelphia. After landing and disabling airplane mode, my phone refused to connect to any sort of data network - no 4G, 3G, or 1x. Calling and txting works fine.
I have been searching for a while now with no success. But here is the strange thing: I went into About Phone > Software Update, and clicked "Check now." Low and behold, the 4G icon flashed on and downloaded the latest update! (Which was over 140mb).
The phone updated and restarted, and now it says Software up to date. I saw the 4G icon flash on for a moment after the initial update restart, and then it flashed off. I went into software update again, and clicking Check Now caused the 4G icon to turn on again! It immediately turned off again, however. I was able to repeat this cycle several times, but now the Check now button does not turn the 4G back on at all - even for a moment as it did 10 minutes ago.
Any ideas how to solve this issue or what is going on?
Please let me know if I can provide you with any additional settings or details, but here are some details that may be relevant:
Mobile data: checked.
Network Mode: Global
APNs: None checked, EHRPD and LTE - Verison Internet are white, the rest are grayed out.
Mobile network type: LTE:14
Service State: In Service
Mobile network state: Disconnected
I appreciate your time.
I got the same issue, was working yesterday but today nothing. If I force it to cdma only I can get 3g data but it didn't stick around very long either...

northeast is having data connectivity issues at the moment- I called in and thats what support told me so most likely its the network right now and not your phone with the issue

Thanks for the quick replies Neo and Chewwy.
Good news, 3G is now up on my device and it appears to be stable for the moment. No 4G yet, but I do have one more question just to make sure I didn't accidentally change something when I was troubleshooting it.
Network mode should be set to Global?
Should a specific APN be selected? Currently, both EHRPD - Verizon Internet, and LTE - Verizon Internet are white and selectable, however none seem to be checked with the little green dot. The rest are still grayed out. Is this normal, or should I select one?
Interesting to hear about the N.E. network issues. I suppose that makes me feel better lol.
