HTC touch pro with US 3G network....

Hello,
I've been seeing in the flee market lots of HTC touch pro (not fuze) that claim to work with North American 3G networks. Are they not telling the truth? I thought that HTC touch pro does not do 3G networks in North America? Or is there another version of the phone that works? I'm talking about HTC touch pro and not the fuze or any other version of the phone.
Thank you.

Allegedly, there are Touch Pros made for the American market.
A websearch will reveal the specs - then all you have to do is lite up the phone and compare to see if it will work in US.

since there is no way of trying the phone since I want to buy it online, is there another way of telling if the phone works on north American 3G network or do I have to take the words of the seller?
Thank you

Ask them for the phone's Model ID. RAPH100, RAPH110, etc.
Once you have the Model ID, you can verify if it supports US 3G.

oh ok thank you
However which model supports US or Canadian 3G? I looked at the Raph_Specs in the wiki and I only found specs for Raphael 800 and Raphael 100; not 100/110. Plus I thought that the HTC Touch Pro has only two versions: the Raphael 100, which is GSM, and the Raphael 800, which is CDMA
Thank you again

The Fuze is RAPH110. Once you find out the Model ID, post it here and I'm sure someone can tell you for sure.

RAPH 110 is the fuze i believe

ok so in conclusion, there is no US or Canadian 3G unless its a fuze... Those that claim to have a touch pro that works on North American Network are scammers. and I'm only talking about the HTC touch pro that has only the HTC logo and no carrier logo. Correct???

A US 3G-compatible Touch Pro may exist. Once you know the Model ID, post it here, and someone should be able to confirm if it will work.

Touch pro
People there is no us 3g version of the Unbranded Touch pro Yet point Blank And FYI The Fuse And Unbranded Touch pro Are the Same phone Just Fuse has no Front Camera And Soft Touch Back other then that The Fuse is the Touch pro Same Speeds And Specs If you Flash the Oem Touch pro unbranded Rom to the Fuse And unlock the Sub Sid Bam there you Go Plus Fuse is Better We have Us 3g and World Wide Hsdpa Hell if i want a Front Camera I will pull out My TyTN II ....Lol

There is the the Diamond Touch (not the Pro) that is compatible with North American 3G. I saw it on www.mobileplanet.com I called HTC direct and confirmed that there is not a North American version of the Touch Pro Other than the Fuze. The will tell you that the Euro Touch Pro has the GSM support but not the 3G.

Help: Hong Kong Touch Pro in Canada (Cityfone/Roger Wireless)

Cutting it short:
Got the Touch Pro for free from Hong Kong, brand new. Sim unlock (as indicated on HTC distributor website w/ IMEI and S/N confirmation).
Flashed to ROM version: 5.07.832.3 Radio version: 1.11.25.01, all from HTC website.
Using the phone in Canada, service provider is Cityfone (the phone indicates Rogers Wireless). I don't have a 3G plan so I'm using regular GSM network.
Problem: Everything on the phone works EXCEPT the phone function itself. Everytime I make a call or receive a call I can only talk for 5 seconds, then the phone mutes automatically.
Tried setting to GSM only and shutting down HSDPA, it just doesn't help at all.
Can anyone identify the problem for me? I really have no clue since I'm new to this pocket pc tech. If HK 3G phone simply doesn't support GSM network in Canada then I don't even do anything with it. If it's just hardware problem then I'd just send it back to HK for replacement.

Any input? Help please...Bump

I will tell you it definitely supports the GSM network in Canada but not the 3G network. I don't know the problem though.

Hmmm, the previous poster is correct, Rogers is the only GSM provider here in Canada. And they do support 3G and H data connections, but you need a North American version (e.g. the FUZE) to use the H speeds) It should be fine for voice, tho. I've never heard of Cityfone, but it may be a subdivision of Rogers or leasing the line time.
Where did you get the SIM card for your phone? It sounds like Rogers is not recognizing the card and is cutting you off.
I know for a fact that unlocked Raphael's will work fine on Rogers, since that's what I'm using, and I've used a lot of other GSM phones on the Rogers network with no problems at all.
If you really want to keep the phone, I would suggest checking with Cityfone re: whose network are they using, or set up a Rogers Wireless account.

I've been using the same sim card for a very long time without problem, on celphones that were purchased locally or other tri-band GSM phones in Hong Kong. I swap the sim card back to my Sony Ericsson W800i and the voice call is fine.
I used my mom's sim card (from Rogers Wireless) and same problem occurs on the Touch Pro--5 secs and the call mutes.
I'm just not sure if it is hardware problem on the Touch Pro or if there is compatability issue with the network (which I doubt since I can talk for 5 secs before the phone mutes...). Any possible way to identify what the real problem is?

HTC Branded T7272 vs ATT Branded Fuze 3G Reception Discrepencies

Hello,
Using my UK/EU Version of the Touch Pro branded as HTC (RAPH100 on the back) I get Edge everywhere and 3G someplaces. However, I gifted a friend an AT&T branded "Fuze" (not sure of the exact model) and when the phones are side by side most of the time, the Fuze gets 3G everywhere and I am stuck on Edge.
They are both on AT&T, and as far as I know have the same data plans. I thought they were both quad frequency chips, and I didnt think there were any GSM differences in the hardware between the versions.
What gives? Can I take a broken Fuze, desolder the GSM chip, and resolder it into my T7272? Is there a way to check for 3G reception vs. 3G connection allowance? Meaning is my phone getting the 3G signal, but AT&T refusing my phone's ID?

you may have posted this in the wrong place.
Did you look at the radio versions? Sounds like each device had a different radio flashed on it. Check out the raphael radio thread here

Moved to Touch Pro, Fuze General for better exposure.

World Phone Unlocked CDMA TP2 - No 3G on AT&T

I have TP2 CDMA version (Initially a US cellular phone i think)
I have Unlocked it (sim and CID) then installed the world phone rom as well.
Put a AT&T sim in and it works
But no 3g!! - Only edge 2g
The settings are already on the phone (with cilgular login)
Anyway of getting the 3g to work?

You phone might not have compatible AT&T 3G bandwidth. Check your specs to see if you do have it.

I have recently received a Telus HTC Touch Pro 2 unlocked, running on the Rogers Wireless Network. Everything works accordingly after setting up the network settings, although it does not run in 3G mode. It works fine in EDGE mode, but the speed difference is fairly significant. I have been doing some indepth reading, although I have not been able to come across any answers on how to get the Rogers 3G mode to operate on the Telus version of the TP2. If anyone has any information as to whether or not it is capable of running 3G, and if so how to you enable the 3G capability?

The CDMA TP2 is not compatible with most gsm 3G services. There is no fix it has to do with the hardware radios.

Nope!
No 3g data in GSM mode.

drewcam...horndoc..what's up ! @ the op, as previously stated, no gsm 3g in north america but it's suppose to work in most countries.

will 4g work in uk

hi just purchased a USA htc win phone ,does anyone know if 4g will work in UK ,if so witch provider cheers

no body tried then

not much happening here then

Not sure
I have just bought from USA a HTC One M8 T-Mobile 0P6B140 which I have unlocked. It is working fine but although it shows it is on Vodafone UK 4G, using the app NET CHECK it reports 3G HSDPA/HSUPA 57mbit. The only thing that I haven't got working is MMS. I have entered the APN details for my contract Vodafone sim which I found on the net, and there are various, but it tells me it cannot send and to contact mobile op. for settings.
As for the 4G, I live in a rural area it may be that Vodafone are transmitting on band 20 (800 MHz) and this phone doesn't support that. Vodafone only have the 800 and 2600 frequencies, band 7 and 20. My phone uses 3 (1800), 4 (AWS). 7(2600), 13 (not sure). I might be wrong with these.
Overall I am pleased, the phone is superbly built and it gives me something to think about!

I have the mms working fine, it was just the APN/MMS settings. So it is just the 4G not working but I can stream video from my synology ds214play with the 3g HSDPA/HSUPA.

Hi, LTE support depends on which carrier version you are bringing to Europe. My Verizon version did not work because it supports only "non-European" LTE Bands.
Now that I am using the AT&T version I can use full LTE in Europe (except the 800mhz band, which doesn´t matter for my country).
Be also aware that AT&T and obviously T-Mobile change the firmware so the phone will display 4G when in reality it is on 3.5/3.75G and LTE when it is on real 4G.
Cheers,
T.
