Does anyone know which is the registry key that will change the phone band settings. I have changed the following, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\BandT ype] but it not updating the selection offered under phone settings band selection. With the ATT Rom I only have a selection of 2 choices. I want to add the following choice. GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(850)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you ever figure out if you could control the band selection via a registry setting?
I need to force this setting via a script for a large user group and am also having problems figuring out what reg setting to change.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Just in case anyone is wondering, I found it:
\HKLM\Software\OEM\UMTS\OpMode
0 = Auto
1 = GSM
2 = UMTS
When you cahnge the band through Settings>Phone it immediately switches the band over if it can find it. When the change is made through the registry it doesn't seem to refresh and look for the new setting. It will, of course, work when you soft reset...but that defeats the whole purpose. Anyone know how to make the reg change actually take effect?
Registry
i was wondering how do i get to the Registry?
Can anybody help me?
I'm pretty new with Treo 750
thanks in advance
You need to use a registry editor. I use PHM RegEdit myself.

I've tried setting up the Treo with the same GPRS settings I've used on the Wizard but it still doesn't work. Has anyone else run into this problem? Please share your settings.
sure
you just have to enter either wap.voicestream.com or internet2.voicestream.com in the Access point settings. I run a 750 with T-mobile for a while now with no problems.
I'm having the same problem with the Fido network. The settings that always work in WM5 devices won't work on this this unit. Can anyone shed some light on this? Are there some settings in the registry that need to be edited?
Nope. No reg settings needed. Just configure with the standard T-Mobile settings and go.
I've got it to work, somehow. I left the settings as they are and did a soft reset a couple of time and it worked. I actually gave up but it worked in the end without me realizing.
Another thing I've learned by messing with the settings, I can actually sign into Pocket MSN by taking out the proxy settings! This makes me very happy. I've also tried the same thing on my previous phone, the T-mobile MDA (Wizard) and the ended up with the same result!
I've just got a Treo 750 and I am on T-Mobile but I do not know what settings to enter to get onto the internet. Any ideas? Thanks.
if you have t-mobile, the setting should be loaded automaticly (it did to with my Treo at the german T-mobile). Or you use the manual on https://shop.dangaard.de/files/Qtek/Qtek.htm
There you can also download a setting cab which you can install - this will automaticly install the settings.
I've been trying to find a way to disable 3G on my new HP iPAQ 910c I got through Rogers Wireless a few weeks ago. I find the battery drains pretty quickly on the phone, and from what I've read forcing it down to GSM when I don't need the 3G speed will help that alot.
My problem is that when I go to the Phone Settings, there's no "Band" tab in which to designate that I want to limit to GSM. From everything I've read the tab *should* be there, but it's not. What tabs are there are the following:
Phone
Security
Services
Network
TTY
PIN2
AOC
More
Doing some searching, I came across this post from last year that addressed a similar issue with an HTC Diamond on the Rogers network.

Just want to share this. But I'm pretty sure this has been tackled in the forums already.
Rogers branded HTC Diamond doesn't have the option to turn of 3G through band selection. I found this registry hack to enable band selection and now I can turn 3G off.
Rogers default registry - OFF
[\HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\]
"ShowUMTSBandPage"=dword:0
Registry tweak to enable band changes
[\HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\]
"ShowUMTSBandPage"=dword:1
Now you can go to >start>settings>phone>band tab and change band settings to your choice. I switched mine to just use GSM instead of auto which always connects on 3G.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The issue with that suggested fix is that I don't have a "PhoneSetting" key under \HKLM\Software\OEM (or anywhere for that matter) on my iPAQ. I tried adding it, and then adding the "ShowUMTSBandPage" dword, but that didn't seem to have any effect (even after a soft-reset).
If anyone has any ideas on how I can enable the Band phone settings tab, or otherwise turn off 3G on occasion on my phone, it'd be greatly appreciated.
This one time, at band tab...
try DHR Bandswitch
Thanks. I installed it and it seems to kindof work. I've posted my questions about it in the Bandswitch thread.
Congrats.
I bought an HTC Touch2 (unbranded) and for whatever reason I can not change the "Network selection" to "Manual".
The "Phone -> Menu -> Options... -> Network" screen didn't even contain any settings besides "Find Network".
A quick google found the policy setting reliable for it and changing "HKLM\Security\phone\ManualDisable = 0" does bring the desired setting temporarily back.
However, after a reboot the key changes back to 0. (Could fix that with a program in autostart.)
However even with the setting enabled I can not change it to manual selection. The moment I try to select a network from the list I get the following error message: "Cannot register on selected network. Choose another network, or disconnect you data connection." (I have not data connection open.)
Any ideas?
Help would be appreciated!

I thought it might be a TouchFlo issue, as the Band selection is gone as well but accessable through TouchFlo.
But the settings are available on the HTC Touch pro2. I am really annoyed about this issue, as I deliberatly bought an unbranded device to avoid having to hack it -> if I wanted that pleasure I would have bought an i-thing.
I was able to identify the registry keys changed by the setting:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\PhoneNetSelMode]
"ManualNet"="11122"
"Option"=dword:00000001
111 = the desired networks MCC
22 = the desired networks MNC
I will try out if setting the keys manually will have the desired effect or if they will get set back automatically after reboot. Should that work I might just write an app to set them. (Somehow I doubt it though.)
Is there a contact for HTC one can contact for this kind of enquires?
Just in case anybody else has the same issue.
it turned out that the SIM card sent an ADPU command to the ME on initialization that told the OS to disable the functions.
So running my batch was overwritten every time the phone reconnected to the network.
Getting a different SIM card solved that issue.
i have this same exact problem. i don't mind buying a new simcard, but before i do how can i be sure i'm buying one that doesn't send the adpu command to reset the registry? i doubt the guys at the store i buy the simcard from will have a clue what i'm talking about. i have a really old sim from cingular before they were bought by att, which is my current provider.
do you have a script or batch that i can run on my phone manually to set the registry? i'm using ceregeditor now but if i don't have a computer then i need to be able to set this key using just the phone.
thanks!
Moved to QnA, not dev related.
This problem probably has an easy solution but I just cant figure it out.
So im Swedish and I ordered a tp2 Verizon and unlocked it with unlock program.
Got everything to work, gsm and umts.
But when I dial numbers ex: 070 65 11 65 (swedish cellphone number)
I see on the screen it adds (1) 070 65 11 65 wich I guess is the
american or english country code.
Now if I type in +46 (Swedish country code)
in front of the cell number and and subtract the 0
+46 70 65 11 65
Everything works.
But for convenience I don't want to have type in my country code for every
cell number.
How do I fix this?
Ive been in region settings on the phone and changed to Swedish.
Someone please help
settings. personal. phone. then i think gsm services
Thanks but it didn't work.
It seems logical the settings to change that would be there though.
I played around with settings on location setting in there. Didn't change anything.
The settings i have on gsm settins are the following:
Call barring
Caller ID
Voice mail and text messages
Pin/pin2
Location setting
tty mode
Time synchronizaion
Am I missing any settings?
I also tried rebooting in cdma mode without gsm sim card and changing
country to Sweden in the cdma settings. Then rebooting again with sim card in gsm
mode.
I didnt try this before but i can call local land line number no problems
but if i try a swedish cellphone number without country code it still
wants to add (1) in front of it.
So annoying.
Any ideas?
hklm-->software-->OEM-->phonesetting and then choose autoprepend_1 and change the "Data" value from 1 to 0.
Ok so im guessing that hklm means changing some registry setting.
I haven't done that before.
Can you recomend a good app for this?
Besides this do you think that this problem might be tied to
using a verizon stock rom and that verizon is an american operator?
If i change to an international rom later do you think I would have this problem?
I know of no international cdma roms. use phm regedit or even easier use CEregreditor from computer with phone connected by activesync.
I used resco explorer 2010,
I didnt have autopretend setting on Phonesetting.
I had something called assisted dialing, wich is something that comes up
whenever i dial a number it says above the number dialing (assisted dialing)
That setting seems to be on (1)
And I have audioredial no value set,
The rest is
Bandtype
Callbarring
CalledId
CallforwardingGsm
CallWaiting
CurrentCountrySetting (no value set)
DNDMode
EmergencyCallAlert
FDN
LocationSetting
NBCDSetting
NetworkService
NetworkType
OutOfCoverageAlert
PIN
RoamingAlert
SwicthNAM
TimeSync
TtyMode
VMailTextMSG
VoiceMail
VoicePrivacy
After a closer I look I found
ShowAutoPrependPage under phonesetting
I changed that value from 0 to 1 but nothing happend.
damn..
Rhodium 500,
thanks for your help and pointing me in the right direction.
Really appreciate it.
I disabled "Assisted Calling" in registry settings and that solved my problems
it was to easy
1-click the call button to see the dial keypad
2- click menu
3- choose global smart dialing
4- disable global smart dialing
5- press ok
abvmoose and others,
How do I turn on Assisted Dialing? I have no entries under HKLM-->SOFTWARE-->OEM-->PhoneSetting--> AssistedDialing?
Please let me know the entries in this folder so I can turn assisted dialing on.
Thanks!
Windows Phone 7 does not allow to specify proxy settings for cellular data connections (unlike Wi-Fi), just APN, user and pass. Is there any path in the registry where they can be set manually that anyone kows about?
Not sure if this helps or not at all but in the LG MFG app, under network profile settings, there's a switch for "Proxy enable options." I haven't seen anything change after enabling it, but it may mean the possibility is there.
Yep, I saw that myself, but this option does not seem to do anything, at least that I could notice. There must be some registry key somewhere, but it's like a needle in a haystack to find it...
