Have you set it to 3G only under network settings? Try toggling 2G only and see if it works.

Hi guys,
I have same problem with my HTC Desire S. Got it from eBay.
It is not asking for any simlock codes so i'm takeing it to b simlock free.
But the problem is "no service"
So i did this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1429215
But still nothing, and yes, i have my back cover on
The only thing that makes me sad is, there is a little "x" where is should show reception.
I have checked it on http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr
and its sayin that it is fine. Phone is not locked or anything.
Plz help

Why do I have no data network?

Ever since doing the htc unlocker last night, my mobile data speeds have been very slow at best. It would not even download anything at all, even though it says 4G on top. I am running stock and the only thing I have done to my phone is unlock bootloader via htcdev.com. can anyone confirm what the problem is or helps figure it out? Thanks!
Also, could it be Tmobiles network being down?
[EDIT] Now I have called T-Mobile and they have not done anything but filed a request to the engineering department. I still have a very low data connection. Can anyone tell me if the HTC unlocker tool messed up my phone?
Can't anyone put in some thoughts or tips or anything at all??
Call them...
Can someone please help. It shows the 4G icon, and the up arrow blinks a couple of times then they both blink together in about 2 second intervals. What does that mean?
I would really like to get my data back on.
After a long, hour conversation on the phone with a T-Mobile rep, they had done nothing to improve my data connection and filed a service request to the engineering department.
Can anyone tell me if the method I had used on my device to unlock my bootloader through htcdev.com messed up my data connection speeds? Has it done that to anyone else!?!?
Should I try to do a factory reset of my device? Please any help would be appreciated.

No Signal Problem/Unlocked phone

Hi !
I need urgent help , i bought SONY ERRICSON EXPERIA PRO MK16I FROM EBAY.
The phone is imported and i am from india , the dealer says that the phone is unlocked.
Ecert thing works fine but there is a huge network problem.
Phone is gsm and only 2-3 network providers like vodafone and reliance work but the signals are so poor that the call may drop at any second, while using internet signals drops everytime, even on the top floor the signals are poor , just one or two bars some times the bars are full the again the bars are no more.
The phone had android 2.3 operating system which was upgraded by the dealer to 4.0
i used upgraded from sony web side and from software nothing work
it's not working. It's been like this for around 1 months now, and I really want it to work! And i've tried reseting, updating the ROM, changing SIM card and put in a totally new SIM card and it's work but signals:crying: drop every time, oh i am so upset.... SIGNAL DROPS EVERY TIME !!
dealer refused to return the phone , i bought the phone from the dealer so it's under seller warranty
the sony service center in india is so poor that they will steal my mobile parts if i will take their help.
i have shown the phone to some local mobile repair experts and some says that network ic is the problem , emei is the problem , some say the phone might not unlocked , some say that do not have the files to solves the problem because the phone is imported.
Is there anyone who can tell me what is the problem with this cellphone
I have tried up every possible way and i am not financially strong to buy a new phone and i don't know who will buy this cellphone if i am ready to sell it ..
Regards

Sorry, but I don't have this phone.
We all where noobs at some point and started with nothing.
The link provides a step by step guide, so trowing your arms up and saying i know nothing - help me wont cut it here am afraid.
Get your **** together and learn how to follow instructions.
If you run into problems, try again, only if all else fails come back and ask for help.
This sounds like a firmware issue. Did you look around for the proper firmwares to flash.. remember don't flash firmwares with an unlocked bootloader. Flash before , then unlock then root. Flashing firmwares on a unlocked bootloader bricked our Sony play. I have since relocked the bootloader and flashed over the UK firmwares. Now we get 3g. Before this we were stuck on 2g (edge). Be careful and good luck

[Q] Getting unlocked Optus HTC One data working on O2 network.

Hello all,
Sorry to trouble you lovely folks but I have a bit of a problem.
I have an HTC One, purchased in Australia but it came as an unlocked handset and can accept any SIM. However, upon coming home to England and putting my O2 SIM into it, I have discovered that I can not get the data connection working, although standard calls work fine.
I have taken it to the shop to get the correct APN settings entered, tried various online permuations for APNs, and spoken with O2 tech support who eventually told me to do a full reset with the O2 SIM in the phone to get it to pick up the settings (it didn't).
Sooo, I was hoping that somebody else may be able to help me? Could it be to do with my software version or localisation? Will I need to somehow root the device and install the O2 HTC One Android ROM? Or will installing stock Android ROM akin to the HTC One Google Edition likely resolve my issues? Or is something else likely the cause of my frustration?
If anybody has a clue, a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Should it be a case of needing a new ROM, then a link to the ROM download and a step by step on how to do it would be a life saver.
Thank you all in advance for your time.
:victory: :victory:
Anybody with any thoughts or advice? =)
Does anybody have any idea or suggestions on how to fix this?
Phone without data capability is epic fail -_-
Bump to see if anybody different may have an idea of how to fix no data connection problem =D
