hi everyone!
I just got my Sidekick 4G from T-mobile USA. Currently i am living in Switzerland and using Orange Network. After i unlock my phone with the code that provide by samsung. My phone only working with wifi, not GPRS/3G.
Anyone know how to activate GPRS/3G on Sidekick 4G??????????????
Thank You.
problem is solved....thanks everyone...
So, no problem to use orange 3g network on sidekick 4g ? I'm thinking about buying, I live in France, but I guess, since it use android, that create a new network account is possible in Network settings ?

Hey guys I just unlocked my phone using that galaxy s unlock app that was just created (thanks dev). I'm with rogers and tried a Bell SIM. Phone calls and sms worked fine and the service provider changed to Bell. I encountered a problem when trying to access the internet via 3G and it didn't work.. The 3G symbol was in my notification bar, and all other phone functions worked, anyone know a potential problem? Thanks

You need to input bell's apn settings before you can use its internet, do a search on google for them.

Unlocked on 2.2 phone was 2.1 when I bought it.

yes i'm rooted and i already tried going to back to stock, didn't seem to fix anything.
OK so if u went back to stock u should take it to a sprint store and tell them that it just started to happened and u did a factory data reset and nothing changed.

that isn't changing your radio band, so i'm guessing that you didn't try it. it's a pretty stupid idea, but who cares as long as it works, right? dial *#*#4636#*#* and click on phone information. then push menu, select radio band, and choose USA. otherwise, take it into sprint lol
This happened to me today. Flash to a stock rom (if you aren't already) and update your profile and PRL. Did the trick for me.
Good luck

i can't update my prl or profile. it just says cannot update please try again. i did a complete back to stock unrooted and still no luck.
Well, i haven't used 3g till now, and today activated it, only to find that it doesnt work.
DDKP3
BCK Kernel Beta 13
Deodexed
No other mods.
Network mode is automatic
When i select WCDMA only. The phone is not able to connect to the network.
And on automatic, the phone stays on EDGE only
Anyone insights on it?
Had read Argentine people having 3g problems long ago. Anyone from there can help?
Also had read somewhere that it might be a CSC problem. I checked using *#1234# to see if CSC is unknown, but its proper.
More info from further posts and replies -
Service provider is Vodafone India.
Confirmed that its a phone problem, by using the SIM in another phone [SE Xperia Arc], and it worked on it.
SOLUTION -
Well, I had removed the sim to try it on another phone, and well on putting it back in the phone, it worked!
I actually feel like a noob after this!
Anyway, thanks everyone for trying to help!
I'm using 3g.... its working great!!! What service do you use? Also are u sure you have subscribed to 3G services... sometimes it takes a while to get activated.

Yea, obviously it isn't a general problem faced by all.
I guess, someone who's faced such a problem only might be able to help.
Had read alot of people having such issues, but now searching isn't giving quite the required results.
If you can, try your SIM card into another smartphone which is confirmed working with 3G, just to be sure the problem comes from your phone.

What rom are you on? If you're on any TW rom, you can just flash it again, and it will come back. If you're on stock, I dont know how you deleted the file

You guys are missing what I am asking for. There use to be a app in the play market by [email protected] called Phone Info. Not the normal phone info that comes with the stock rom. This app use to allow you to change the mode on your phone from the CDMA to GSM if you had a the sch-i535. About 2 weeks ago they deleted it from the market, and now I need it. I just need someone with that .apk file.

The 4636 code does the same exact thing as phone info.... same exact thing. Type that code in and scroll down... Magic! But if you still aren't willing to try it or give any more information on what ROM or anything you are using, pm me your email and I'll send it to you.

You dont need any apps for that. I know you're talking about global mode (switch the radio to gsm). Thats just in settings>more settings>mobile networks>network mode
Unless I'm still not understanding what you want to do. It sounds like you want to switch to GSM mode...the above does it.

I am running the stock rom, but i have it rooted / unlocked. I didnt know typing in the code would give me that screen, however when I type it in on the dialer it does nothing, and when i hit the call button it say "no mobile network". I have a verizon sch-i535

Under mobile networks i dont have the network mode option. I am running ICS.. do I need to be running JB??
The dialer code should have worked, but if not the pimp my ROM app has phone info built into it.

This.
Or Just do the OTA to Jellybean! Is there a reason you didn't do it? That option was only enabled in 4.1
if you still want it...
I found out that you don't need it just go into settings/more settings/mobile networks/network mode and there you go you can change to global LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS
Net Monitor Worked for me instead of Phone info.
I am running CM 10.1 nightly.
The *#*#4636#*#* brought up the ability to change the mode to GSM, but if i go into settings/more settings/mobile networks/network mode I only have ' LTE/CDMA/EvDo' and 'CDMA/EvDo auto.'
I am travelling to UK, Italy and Spain next week so I am trying to ensure this will work. I will be staying with the Verizon SIM and incurring the roaming charges (business phone) and won't be using another SIM.
Thoughts?
want to change from cdma to gsm also
