HTC Touch Cruise & new phone operator

Hi
I have an HTC Touch Cruise that I bought over the Internet. It has worked perfectly with the phone operator that I have been with for the last 5 years.
I changed my phone operator: Changed the SIM card . I see the name of the new company on the screen (top left). I can use the phone, but cannot send SMS's. On the Connections Tab in the Settings I accessed the Connection Setup and the name of the original opertor still appears. In the Comm manager I went into the Phone Settings and on the Services Tab I pressed "Get Settings" for all the services. On the Network Tab the Current network is that of the new operator. I pressed on FIND Network button and the SET Network buttons and it seems that the current network is that of the new one, yet a message appears "Connection Setup. The operator does not exist on the database. Please contact your operator for connection settings. Connection setup will redirect you to the Connections screen". This message has appeared from the moment I changed the SIM card. The new operator does not not know how to help me. Can someone point me in the right direction? What does it mean that the "operator does not exit in the database"? How can I make it appear on the database?
Thanks
Brian

I suggest you state your current operator and country. Maybe someone can share the settings you should key in. Another option is too google something like: youroperatorname internet or gprs settings (that's how I did it for my wife last month). I remember there is a specific thread here at xda dealing only with these kind of settings. Another option is to look for the lastest version of htconfiguration tool in case it is already there (maybe you use an "old" rom). Good luck

Hi Cruiserrr
Thanks for your quick response. The operator is Orange and the country is Israel. I'll Google what you suggested. I'm using the original ROM.Can you remember the thread?Where do I find if there is a new version of the htconfiguration tool and how will it help my situation? And how would I use it/
Thanks
Brian

I typed in google "gprs settings orange israel" and had lots of links. eg here at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=218329. Maybe the first one does not work since the link maybe old. Try a few posts and you should be up and running in a few minutes.
htcconfiguration tool ??? I think I invented myself the name. I am referring to the same app you mentioned connectionsetup (htc made)-
this is the part of the forum where you should look for gprs settings http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=262

Thanks for the info. I'll check out your leads in the morning and I'll let you know how it went.
Once again, Thanks

GSM Data & Phone Settings - Overseas

I am visiting Australia for 3 months this summer and was hoping to use my TP2 with a Virgin Mobile Australia SIM card for voice and data. From searching the forum it looks as if I am going to need some setting for data access, and possible to disable CMGuardian.
When I have used my UK Orange or Italian TIM SIM in my Motorola Razr under Tools I see some SIM specific menu items for checking credit, recharging etc. Will I see the same things in the TP2 once it make a connection?
I would appreciate any suggestions for anybody who has used a GSM SIM for data access.
Thanks

No you need to contact the provider and find out the settings for data

GSM Overseas settings
Now in Australia, I have had to adjust several settings and I want to pass on what I learned. After inserting the Virgin Mobile SIM, don't forget to switch to GSM only. There are some CDMA services in Australia and you don't want to roam onto them or you will be paying the Sprint Roaming rates. The Virgin SIM did not show up as an icon under settings and tools the way that other SIM cards have.
I found my phone worked as a phone, GPS worked and it would go on the internet thru Opera. However, at first it would not access my email and required me to dial local calls in Australia as if they were long distance.
I found I needed to change the Global Smart Dialing settings which can be found under Phone, Menu, Global Smart Dialing (need to scroll down to see this option on the Menu). Change the "dialing from" to the correct number required before country code. So for Australia, where you dial 00 before the country code when dialing out internationally, selecting Australia will change the 011 (used when dialing from the USA) to 00.
Next I needed to change the dialing rules. Go to Start, Settings, Menu, All Settings, Connections, Connections, Advanced Tab, Dialing Rules. I ticked the box for "use dialing rules", and edited the rules for Mobile, Work and Home to use the Australia country code of 61 and blanked the area code. I think I could have got the same result by editing the dialing pattern for local calls to remove the E and the F so that local calls did not have the country code or area code prefixed to them.
To fix the Email issue, I had to go to my email accounts by going to the Inbox, Menu, Tools, Options and tapping on each email setup in turn. Once in an email setup, select "Edit Account Settings" and tap Next 4 times to get to Advanced Server Settings. Here there is a drop down list of Network connections. I had to change mine from "The Internet" to VirginGPRS.
NOTE: Have not had a chance to try this, but probably the easier way to fix the email issue is to go to Start, Settings, Connections, Connections, Advanced tab and under Programs that automatically......should connect using "VirginGPRS" or whatever service you are using.
At this point I have phone calls, local SMS, internet and email working. I still have a problem with international SMS.
I am sure somebody understands this better than me and perhaps their is a more elegant way of doing this, but at least it worked.

No Caller ID with xiaomi.eu on Vo WiFi

Evening all. I've recently flashed xiaomi.eu 12.2.3 (stable) and I'm very happy with it, especially call recording. One annoyance though, I don't have caller ID for incomming calls when it's using Vo WiFi.
Not sure if it's related but when I goto Caller ID (system app settings > call settings > advanced settings > other) it just says 'Call settings error. Network or SIM card error.' And I can only select OK. Additionally if I goto settings > SIM cards & mobile networks, the vast majority of the options are greyed out.
Caller ID is working fine when not using VO WiFi. This seems strange, and from googling other people are experiencing the same thing but there doesn't seem to be a solution. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

maybe look here https://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/question-answers.22/
Or ask directly on the site.

Thanks; when I looked the only firm suggestion seemed to require root which I don't want. I'll sign up and post there though.

What apps or settings might interfere with carrier network connections?

My carrier-branded, SIM-unlocked phone, when starting up normally, will - at first - not make or receive voice calls with the APN settings for the MVNO SIM card I have (mobile data works right away). I need to manually switch to the APN settings that came preinstalled with the phone (and which contain no settings except for the APN address of the carrier that I bought the phone from), then switch back to the correct APN. Then voice calls work. If I boot up in safe mode, this dance isn't necessary. Which would suggest that there might be some app or setting on the phone that interferes somehow with the proper functioning of the voice call function.
Not sure if this is related but I also note that the VoLTE setting is always greyed out (although it's set to "On") and I never see the VoLTE icon in my status bar though with the same SIM card, I see it every time I make calls on my other phone from the same manufacturer (Samsung).
I have posted the specifics of my phone in a previous post in the subforum for that model, see below. Any suggestions on how to trouble-shoot this?
docomo A53 voice network connection problem #APN
Weird issue... Brand-new A53, docomo-branded (I live in Japan), SIM-unlocked, fully updated (last update: Oct 1). Haven't messed around with it, no root, no nothing. USIM is from IIJmio, one of the discount MVNOs here, carrier is docomo. USIM...

Yeah, guess I'll have to do that. Such a hassle. Any suggestions on what sort of app to focus on first?

Like I said in my first post. The app also likely runs at startup. Be glad it didn't permanently alter a hidden setting...

Thanks, I must have missed your first post then. Makes sense.
