Keep connecting GPRS rather than 3G - HD2 General

Anyone can tell me how can I make my HD2 not connect to GPRS, it is a 3G sim but it keeps connecting G rather then H
Thanks!!

you probably dont have good enough 3g reception hence the phone keeps connecting to GPRS.

GPRS or WiFi priority

Hi,
Got my Jasjar today and very happy with it. I am in and out of a LOT of Wifi zones daily so was wondering if there is a way, when WiFi and GPRS are both on and im in a WiFi area all net connections use WiFi not GPRS/3G if both are active.
I did a test and it seemed my messenger program was still using the GPRS connection when on the WiFi Network.

I need to get a proper answer - but I have discovered this.
I walked home from work the other day on MSN using 3G.
I arrived home, and the unit picked up my WiFi signal and connected.
I then dropped the phone (radio) link using the control panel.
The MSN connection remained active, and I remained on WiFi even when bringing up the phone radio again. WiFi was definately being used in this instance.
I wasn't able to tell whether or not this would work WITHOUT turning the phone part off and back on again.
Yeah that is whats happening here. I put on GPRS monnitor and set it to watch the GPRS connection only and hit my WiFi spot, even when wifi was connected it was still using the GPRS to send/recieve internet data. If I then turn off GPRS the it carrys on as if nothing had happened on Wifi.
With the cost of mobile Data these days it really should always default to a connected WiFi connection if its available and not the GPRS/3G connection.
I suppose a utility that disconnected GPRS when a WiFi connection becomes active would effectively do this as once you are out of the WiFi spot GPRS would be initiated to make connection.

WIFI vs 3G connection

Hi there,
I have this little question...
I would like that my hermes knows which connection to use when checking mails etc.
I'll explain.
At work and home I have my wifi connection, on the road my 3G connection. I would like to have my data connection always on, but when i'am at the office or at home, when checking my mails every 15 mins, I would like that my phone knows that he need to use the wifi connection.
Now, even when there is a wifi connection, he is making the connection trough 3G. I hate it that i always need to put my 3G connection off when at home or office. I would be funnier that i can leave it on and he is making the right choice of connection?
Anyone an idea?
I don;t realy understand. As hermes always using WiFi conection (if is connected to the hotspot) first, before 3G, so that's mean if you are connected! to you WiFi network phone will yous this connection to get your e-mails.
Yup, it was my error... sorry about that

I want to ensure that, then i connected to internet via WIFI, my GPRS (3g) is not connected.
How can i disable the 3g GPRS connection, and enable WIFI only
Thanks a lot!!!
No Data will allow you to stop data connection.
so now if i closed my Orange network, the WIFI should work?
It is still doesnt work, do you have any idea how to configure it?

Course it will there seperate
All you do is block Orange connection when you want and unblock when needed
This program doesn't help me , because even i close it the GPRS still work.
But than i take the SIM from the phone, or turn off the phone feature, the internet connection is unavailable.
I think that all problem that was in some topics about the WIFI speed , is because of they used the GPRS internet and not the WIFI.
So , there some more complexive problem with internet WIFI in HTC HD.
Just try to take out the SIM and than surf in internet with WIFI? There is no way!!!!!
the connection icons on the top of the screen clearly show which data connection is active
the manual describe the meaning of all the top screen icons
settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
pick my home network or whatever the non isp connection is named on your phone
and all data connections when there is no wifi or activesync connections to get free network from will fail with an error == you will never get a grps connection again
before you turn it back to my isp or what it's named on your device

internet sharing while phone call

Hi,
I have a problem, while I share internet connection and make a phone call the phone change the connection technology form HSDPA to GPRS. How can I disable this function because I want to use fast internet connection even when I make phone call?
Using GPRS should not disable a HSPA connection. You can still browse the internet whilst on a phone call, which is exactly that.
You mentioned sharing the internet connection. Are you saying that you want to use the internet connection from your phone on another device whilst you're making a call?
I share the internet connection to my pc. I usually use vnc client through vpn tunnel and make phone call to describe something to my client. When the conversation starts the connection is changed form hsdpa to gprs. Gprs is too slow for vnc or remote desktop so I need HSDPA.
I know I can use GPRS and HSDPA or 3G at the same time, so this may be an issue with your network provider. Personally, I don't think this info will help me help you in the slightest, but it may help someone else help you...
What network are you with?
Is (was) your phone locked?
Where are you?
That info may well be relevant, as I do know that some setups can mean that you can only use one connection at a time, whereas most mean you can use multiple connections.
I'm form Poland and my operator is orange pl. What is strange hd2 is my second htc device. Previous device tytn II works without any problems also in orange network.
I have a question as well! I'm on tmobile and I live in south florida and I cant talk and use Internet at the same time, why not?
Turn off the Autodisconnect option. i had the same problem, as long this was turned on.
where can I find this option?
i had a problem when i was on a call. my Msn will disconnect after a few mins of call. any idea how to stay connect ?

3G connection on TD2 (5358+)

Hello,
Since a while I have a SIM with wireless internet on my TD2 5358+ WM 6.5
Works fine only very slow.
I wonder if I have 3G reception, it’s status says G (boxed) and a small G with the antenna indicator.
Pressing this icon displays connectivity, mobile internet (GPRS)
When I google for this phone I see pictures displaying also a boxed H.
Who can explain if I use the best settings?
John.
G is 3G, H is HSDPA
G is gprs, it will show an H if connected to hsdpa, and 3g if connected to 3g. If it displays an H, you have the fastest speeds, followed by 3g and then gprs. Try going into the comm manager and changing into 3g gsm mode
