Hi to All !
I tried a lot of Roms but up till now couldn´t find one
with 3G working ...
So I went back to my T-Mobile WM5 Rom.
Do you know one Mobile 6 Rom with working UMTS ?
Pease advise.
Best regards,
Karl
Pretty much every WM 6/6.1 ROM out there works with 3G/UMTS, perhaps you don't know how to activate it?
unless you are in the U.S. then you won't have any 3G , only GPRS, no matter what ROM you might have.

every WM 6/6.1 or 6.5 rom work with 3g if you have proper setting for it... if you are talking about 3G feature like videocall then none of therom except wm 5 works... if you are talking about 3G internet or other service then it should work flawlessly... try to install the setting cab for the operator and your country... the best way to get it would be getting it from t-mobile rom you got... there should be a cab file namely your operator in ext driver of the rom...
Hi !
Mysterious ....
My provider is Orange. So I took the T-Mobile Rom and changed the provider to Orange using the Network Wizard. 3G is working fine on this. I will simply stay with the WM5 Rom ... By the way ... We do have 3G here in Europe.
Best regards Karl
Go with any wm6, 6.1 or soon to be 6.5 rom and use the network wiz. I have been using it for years with no problems at all. Could it be a hardware problem??

dont forget to put your phone on auto on phone settings
Some Tomal's ROMs doesn't work with 3G e.g. Tomal v.8.7 lacks this. The option was locked and my Qtek could receive only GSM1800.
Well I too live in Europe but I had such a problem if I used my old sim card I couldn't use 3g but with a new sim card I could. Soo try with another sim card maybe that will help. I use vodafone

Wrong. All Tomal's ROMs support 3G, the option was not locked, but unavailable once you have a GPRS connection established. Disconnect and you will be able to switch to auto in settings. However, in some ROMs complete settings were available through phone options.

OK, maybe my full-loaded with apps Qtek wasn't able to switch in auto mode due to some reasons. But still, thank you for information!
PS: I do appreciate Tomal's ROMs cooking and consider them a very good for Unis.

It usually doesn't switch the Auto mode automatically, I always had to adjust it in settings, but the only reason the selection tab is greyed out when you go to do so it the active connection already established. Don't think it has anything to do with apps loaded. Try it next time, Tomal's ROMs are great. Would hate something as small as that ruin that impression for you
3G Icon disappeared
Hello guys,
Yes Enigma1nz
You are right. All Tomal's ROMs are great. I use Tomal's Rom always.
But here I can't see 3G icon on top bar. I have saved the proper configuration file for 3G settings from operator.
Here is my network & band settings:
Select your network type = Auto
GSM Band = Egsm+DCS1800
UMTS Band = UMTS 2100
Can you tell me how you are using 3G fine?
WCDMA

You were right. It was all about setting.
I have done it myselft by selecting network type to WCDMA. It was on Auto mode.
Now my UNI is showing 3G on tob bar.

Have 4 problems with my unlocked htc S710 phone:
1) Problem is I can not get the phone to work on one of my gsm providers - my home provider actually. They currently operate on the 1800/900 band. I will see the network (when set manually) get full signal and detect gprs but for some reason I can not make or receive any calls.
Has anyone had this problem ?? .... and what can I do to fix it??
2) Using the other gsm providers SIM the phone actually works (makes and receives call, surfs the net) - provider operates on the 1900/850 band. Problem is it shows a roaming symbol on the phone.
Why is that there? and how can I remove it?
3) When using WiFi i find i can not surf or retrieve mail as my office uses a proxy setting. I have attempted to setup for the proxy but still not working and the manual does not show you.
current settings
call from : work
call to : the internet
proxy name/port: <name>:8080
type: http
username/password saved
Can somone tell me what I am possibly doing wrong?
4) Why cant i select the GSM band I want to use like in Mobile 5 .... i can t even find the option ?
take the settings from:

Problem with this update is I am in JAMAICA, i do not see my providers. We have (2) GSM providers Cable & Wireless Jamaica and Digicel Jamaica.
What you suggest ??
does your provider have to register IMEI's of phones?
it may restrict what phones you can use with them

Digicel not supporting WM6 devices
The problem is that currently Digicel is not supporting the radio firmware embedded in WM6. I found this out after upgrading my HTC P4350 to WM6 to find that I had no connectivity. I ended up being forced to downgrade to WM5. As the S710 is not available with WM5, your only option is to switch to C&W.

Thanks for the response. I was forced to switch to C&W cause the support people and Digicel had NO CLUE ... sad really ... i guess we now know who is the better network! But tell me something i noticed when using C&W the roaming symbol appears on the phone. This does not stop any features from working but i just wanted to know if you had that problem and if so how did you get rid of it.
same here. i too am facing same problem.. when i have vodafone sim i can make incoming n outgoing call but when i change to airtel i get the probs.
guyz help me out with this probs.
thnx
All,
I used to be a symbian fan. Then i switched to a Vox. was not too impressed. Then i discovered xda-developers!
You guys rock! In 4 days time, i was running Dr Gonzo's 1.1 ROM, and i have since fallen in love with the Vox.
Question: Does anyone here know how to configure GPRS for Airtel, India? It used to work fine for me till i switched to this phone. All settings (IP,etc are correct).
I get an error stating the remote host disconnected the session, or something to that effect.
WiFi works fine.
Any thoughts?
run the connection setup wizard.
Already did,and all APN, etc are correct. Still no luck. Any other thoughts?

make sure to reboot ur phone after connection wizzard. it used to be a huge mission to set up gprs but since the wizzard came out its really a breeze! if its not working test ur sim with another phone just to make sure its not actually the sim thats not gprs enabled yet. if this is the case, phone ur service provider and ask them to activate it
One quwestion:
Is there any way so I can add settings for my network in connection setup wizzard in a gonzo rom 6.1?
@rphukan
Even I use the Airtel Network.The connection setup wizard did the trick for me and gprs works beautifully. Which ROM do you use?
All, thanks for the responses, guys!
I am running Dr Gonzo's 1.1 Rom. I have tried the connection setup wizard, and have also tried manually entering the settings.
The connection is active on my Sim, i just checked on other phone. (Nokia N70 Music edition).
@prajith: Do you have airtel mobile office enabled? or is it working just on airtel live/GPRS?
Just installed ranjus rom with radio 1.18. Few questions...
1)it still comes up with the o2 splash screen when I turn on, and it asked me all the o2 question(it is originally an o2 xda exec). I wouldve thought installing a totally new rom wouldve wiped all this??
2) im now using my orange sim in it, but it won't connect to a 3G singal(it didn't do this before I put ranjus rom on it either)
O2 Extended Rom Customisations Are Probably Not Compatible With WM6.1
You Need To Flash The Extended Rom To Remove All The O2 Customisations.
Go Into Your Phone Options And Set The Band To Auto To Enable 3G/GPRS And Not Just GPRS. (GSM = GPRS & UMTS = 3G)
Download The HTC Network Settings Tool And It Will Configure Your Device With The Settings Required For Your Selected Network.
Hope That Solves Your Problems.

I tried to change the band from gsm to auto but it just goes back to gsm and greys all the boxes out! do I need to use that prog you gave the link to?
edit:think I got it to change the band to auto, still not on a 3g network but maybe I am outta range.
the device kept turning off like it was outta battery, but it said there was like 30% left, now im on mains power its workin ine.
can I flash th extended rom witout looisng all the settings and progs I've just loaded on?
I Believe So...
I Think You Can Just Make Sure Theirs No "radio_.nbf" (Radio Rom) Or "nk.nbf" (CE OS Rom) In The Flash Utility Folder.
Then Run The Flash Utility And Dont Perform A Hard Reset After Flashing.
It Should Then Only Update The Extended Rom. The Problem Is If You Have Already Let The Device Autoconfigure,
Alot Of The Crap From The Manufacturers Standard Rom Will Still Be Installed On Your Device.
The Best Way To Remove Would Be A Hard Reset But That Means Having To Reconfigure And Reinstall Etc.
Oh And To Answer Your Previous Question About The O2 Logo, Ranju's Rom Doesnt Flash That Area Of The Device Thus Leaving The O2 Logo Intact.
Their Are Ways To Customise This Logo If You Like.

I will have a tinker later on when im at home in front of my computer. Any idea why I can't get 3G reception? its enabled in the control panel.
So does anyone have any idea why I cant get 3G network reception? Im on radio 1.15 now.
For those of you who can get 3G reception...When you go to Settings>Phone>Network>(Network Selection) Manual...Does it show the regular networks (i.e 'Orange', 'O2 - UK' etc) AND the 3G network (i.e 'Orange 3G', 'O2 - UK 3G' etc)?
Sim Card Possibly.
No The Networks Are All Called The Same Its Just The Radio Bands Used To Connect Data Services That Differ.
Maybe Your SimCard Isnt A 3G Sim Or It Isnt 3G Enabled?
If The Sim Is Not A 3G Sim It Would Only Use GSM I Believe.
Regards,
OllieD
it is definstely a 3g card as it works in my other phone! does everyone get 3g reception on orange using a g3 o2xda with ranju rom and radio 1.15?
Isn't there ANYONE on orange in here??? I have had a look around and I think most of the Orange network runs on a 900MHz UMTS freqency. And it looks like the Uni only supports 1900MHz
UMTS on Ranju 7.7
I am on Orange, using Ranju 7.7 and radio 1.18. I had the same problem as you with the default Phone parameters, but I was able to change the band setting to "Auto" in the phone options. Thus GSM Band became "EGSM+DCS1800" and UMTS Band "UMTS 2100". And after a while the 3G icon appeared !
Universal bad for 3G
i can only say that universal has very bad 3g(UMTS connection) because when most other phones show 4 bars for 3g..my o2 exec only give 1 bar..but it is OK for 2g or GPRS...anyone agree??
Well I just flashed my voda v1640 with ranju v77 Rom, and shows good UMTS performance with italian "TIM" network, both for signal strength and for internet browsing.
the Radio is 1.14.10 (it should be the original one...)
Is there a way to disable 3G? I don't use it and I know it used a lot of battery.
yes use advancedconfig
go to more settings to to comm manager and add the toggle to that
Alternatively, if you have the band tab enable in start>settings>phone>band, you can just choose "GSM" instead of "Auto" on the first drop-down list.

This works fine on my Fuze, but I would like to have the toggle in Comm Manager.
HOWEVER, when I use AdvancedConfig, the toggle shows up, but it (along with Data connection) is greyed out. Could anyone help? Thanks.
People should also note that setting it to 3G only ALSO saves a lot of battery. Not as much as 2G only, but it is definitely better than 2G+3G because only 1 radio is running instead of 2.
If your area is well covered with 3G and you use data a decent amount, I would recommend trying 3G only.
Disable all T-Mobile Dataplan radio activity?
I use my GSM phone with wifi only - I have no data plan.
Still, my phone looks for 2g and 3g connections when network activity happens and there is no Wifi connection.
Can I disable this behavior? Is there a way to disable both 2G and 3G, all cellular data activity - but still allow cellular phone activity so I can get calls in and out?
I have a 1.5 Cupcake-rooted-rom from haykuro (good stuff, BTW) ...
thanks,

WM 6.5 disable 3G
Sorry for opening old theme but i cant find solution nowhere.

There is no "band" and in Advanced Configuration Tools is nothing to disable it. I want use only GSM.
Thanks

Most chefs cook the option into the Com Manager. Check in there.
Thanks for the help
Disabled 3G by pressing the green phone button>Menu>Alternative...>Band (scroll down) and then select GSM rather than automatic!
Thanks for the help!
Just delete the connection settings from Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Manage Existing Connections
No way for it to connect without settings
Hi
I just bought a second hand unlocked HD2
I am on Orange. The phone will pick up 3G but I need to sync with Exchange. At work we have our own APN options. So , I have go into the connection tab but from some reason , there is no Cellular 3G,GPRS option, only GPRS. The phone does sync, but I don't think I am getting a 3G connection
With my previous phone Diamond 2, when I did the same thing, the 3G was an option
Am I missing something?
Which version of HD2 did you buy? Did you even check if your HD2 3g bandwidth is compatible with orange?
Not sure I understand your question , but I believe I have a
HD2 T8585
Did you even check if your HD2 3g bandwidth is compatible with orange?
Others at work, have a HD2, so it will work on 3G. I was unaware that there was different types of HD2!!
as long as your basically anywhere but america the 8585 should work (dont quote me on this, obviously there are others) ie uk, europe, south africa should work. I believe australia has their own band specific version as well...
id suggest you go to the rom site, install an original rom, and see if it works afer you run an auto configure in the network settings.
Alternatively, try flashing a new radio rom and see if it works. the 2.07.50 works well for me in SA. some others also only give me EDGE.
I don't know how you have it in your country, but here in Denmark the providers have downloadable 3G settings to their networks that we have to pull down to get it to work...
Unless of course we set it up manually.
Maybe you haven't gotten the setup from Orange?
Hey there, you should check your band settings:
Go to settings > connections > network advanced > in the first tab you can choose "off" or "only HSDPA" or "HSDPA/HSUPA". click on the last option for 3G band.
My former devices (X1i and Hermes) you had band-settings for GSM or 3G but on the HD2 i cannot find it, so this option is changed in WM6.5 i guess.
