Anyone got an HTC HD7 ?
If so, how do you select from a list of available networks ?
A friend of mine has just bought one on O2 and is stuck in Dubai with no emails - it was working perfectly in the UK, and all relevant services are enabled on his O2 account.
Roaming/data are both enabled on the phone itself but the phone has defaulted to the Etisalat network. O2 recommend using either of the AL JAWAL, Mobily or Zain networks for their services to work in Middle East/Emirates countries.
Anyone got a UK one and care to offer a menu sequence to select from available networks ?
I think the options are under cellular in the settings menu. Not sure about how to change it manually though
HTC app called connection wizard or something...
Go to settings>cellular>scroll to bottom, choose tap to select where it says network selection:automatic

Hi
I have a two-pronged issue:
1. Changed my operator from Cellcom to Orange in Israel and receive a msg "The operator does not exist in the database. Please contact your operator for connecting settings". In Settings > Connection Setup I select Israel and the Orange does not appear as operator only Cellcom.Do I need to get Orange onto the Database?How?
2. Trying to access the Web and get msg "There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in your registered home network".
Can anyone help me with these two issues?
Thanks
Brian
i had the same problem yesterday with o2 pay as you go gprs (the only option available was o2 contract gprs or other countries) you would have to manually find the connection details, calling customer support should get the details you need, then enter then through start -> settings -> connections (tab) -> connections -> manage existing connections/add a new connection
then you can edit/add your gprs connection for your carrier.
i am using 6.1 which came on my XDA orbit 2 so it might differ slightly
Hi friends,
I recently bought a HTC HD2 locked to T Mobile in UK. I used a Rebel sim to unlock it and I am now using it on O2.
However I am not able to start internet, neither can I receive settings from O2.
The message that gets displayed tell the phone as pre set T Mobile internet settings and these cannot be changed
Is there anyway I can bypass these? Anyone else faced same thing before?
Thanks
Metal
can't you manually change the apn to that of o2?
Rudegar,
Thanks for your reply.
I cannot change the apn as all the settings are for T Mobile and I cant change them.
I tried using all the settings but no use. I can start the internet using Wifi but not through operator internet.
When I go to the new connection set up I am asked to select country (i select as UK), then I am asked to select operator and only option I have is T - Mobile.
Besides when I click on any browser, I get the T Mobile flash screen and then the browser starts.
I get an error as I am not a T Mobile customer. I have a link for settings there. When I click that it says -
This connection is pre configured. It cannot be modified.
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.
Hello All,
Looking for a bit of help. (Aren't we all?!?)
I have recently purchased a HTC Sensation in the UK. Original provider is Orange. I have achieved "S-Off" by following instructions on this site, and shortly after achieved the unlock by using method 2 on this forum. Everything seemed to work fine, except I have just noticed that with other providers SIM cards I no longer have a 3G signal as I do with the original SIM. Is this somethign that can be fixed, or am I stuck with the original provider?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'd be glad to give all the details of my phone, if anyone has any ideas of a solution. Thanks in advance!
JT
Nice, have you tried selecting the 3g networks from the mobile networks menu?
Nice phone. I think you must select it in the mobile network in the settings.
I had the same thing with my sensation that was locked to Vodafone, you have to go into wireless and network settings > mobile networks > access point names and if you dont have the network that your sim is using show up press menu > new APN and add the values for your network, just do a google search to find out what they are like if it was for orange just search "orange uk apn settings".
Hope this helps.
absolutly correct you need to add the correct APN settings I have had to do the same thing with my sensation
Hi,
I just unlocked my SGS2 i9100, (rooted + used the app). I've just taken out my O2 sim, and put in my new Ovivo one (free contract - it's too good to be true, but it's true!).
Anyway, as after powering on a pop-up windows appeared asking me to select my "Sim Service", and I had the choice of:
-Vodafone Contract
-Vodafone PAYG
-BT Mobile
-ASDA
-TalkTalk Contract
-TalkTalk PAYG
-TalkMobile
I know Ovivo is vodafone, but since it you have a free allowance every month, on top of credit, I didn't know which one to choose. Even worse, I accidentally clicked one and don't know which I chose.
Two questions:
1) How do I get this Sim Service window back up?
2) Does anyone know which setting I should choose for Ovivo?
I presume this window is just for APN settings and it may not matter that much, but I'd still like to select the right one!
Thanks!

try .. settings .. wireless & network settings .. (long press) mobile networks .. access point names. the highlighted one will be the one you selected. Available networks should give you a list of network operators .. but ovivo will not be one of them.
i am trying to use the viper rom on my desire hd and have the same problem.
i think previously i selected bt-mobile and then changed all the apn settings but not seeing the bt one at the moment.
extra .. i tried installing viper again today and bt-mobile was one of the options so i selected that.
then i went to the apn and noticed that bt-mobile wasn't highlighted (ie no dot in the circle) so press menu and create the 2 apn's that ovivo require, save each one then select the main ovivo one as the preferred carrier (you should also be able to delete the bt apn but not really necessary.
hopefully, somebody will know how to resolve this with ovivo .. meanwhile i'm going to restore back to sabsa v14 .. i need mobile internet everyday.
pity, because viper looks interesting.
dave.
Just found it.
Go to settings --> mobile networks --> access point names. then menu button, and reset to default and it'll ask you to choose a "Sim Service" again.
