Hi there I was wondering if anyone has successfully got the Motorola milestone 2 to operate on the Telstra Next G network I have tried the brazil sbf which is 850/2100 umts it connects for a few seconds on the 3G network then totally drops I can get it to connect to the gprs network and it will hold that connection but not the 3G Telstra must have a different frequency on their 850 network? I would really appreciate any support or ideas thanks for your time.

Hi. Newbie in this forum. Bought an htc tytn from u.s. but am from Phil using smart carrier with gsm band at 1800. after going thru sev topics, properly identified device as Herm200 rom:1.18.255.3 07/22/06 extrom:1.18.255.106 radio1.03.03.10 protocol32.34.7010.01H.
All phone features working perfectly except for 3G. Smart carrier people cannot help. What could be wrong. Vendor says 3g works on 2100 band. Confusing statement. What can be done? Connects to umts but when video call is pressed will not connect.
Which carrier are you on again? Smart Carrier? .. From what I know no carriers in the US support video calling .. Also, Cingular is the only GSM carrier in the US with 3G which runs on the 1900Mhz band ..
also .. what does your phone display while connected "G" or "U" ... what are your phone band settings .. can you also goto dslreports.com/mspeed and see what speeds are you getting ..
According to GSM world SMART (a Philippine operator) uses UMTS 2100, which your TyTN does definitely support.
Have you checked if your SIM card is 3G-enabled? Most 3G networks require special USIMs for 3G usage.
I just learned, that Cingular uses UMTS 850 and 1900 to be exact. According to the American HTC website the Cingular 8525 supports "Tri-band UMTS/HSDPA high speed wireless data network support (2100MHz and 850/1900 MHz), Quad-band GSM®/GPRS/EDGE worldphone".
Does anyone know if there is a special hardware version, that supports UMTS850 & 1900 or will my European TyTN work on those networks, too?
TyTN is tri-band UMTS .. 850/1900/2100 .. so it should work on these networks without any issues ...
And my bad .. didnt realize that you are trying to use the TyTN in Phillipines ..
You should also check, if the called party has a 3G signal, while you call him. Further make sure video calls are activated by your network operator.
3g problems in the philippines
Everything you guys mentioned in order(am in a 3g area calling a 3g enabled party with a 3g sim card). Even the tech staff behind Smart Communications cannot make it work. Displays U and u. But video call cannot push thru even if pic on front camera shows. There is 1 thin line( or command?) stopping it from connecting. My last option is to borrow my friend's unit and see if her unit's 3g works here then it's my device that's a problem. Thnks for the input. Keep it coming.

Hi. I don't know how they did it but Smart Communications did it! Apparently and ironically their 3g sim card is not compatible with the htc tytn but their regular sim is. Thanks all.
are u using 3G now in Phil ?
Is there a Globe perpaid 3G simcard ?
3g problems no more
Hi everyone. After my first thread i have finally got everything on my tytn working: 3g, mms, internet, phone. The problem was on the settings. Smart and Globe, the primary carriers in the Philippines can both work on the phone if the settings are right.
sectorlord,
yes there is 3g and hsdpa along with gsm and gprs and wap in the philippines. and yes you can buy globe prepaid 3g sim card.
glad to hear you've got your problems solved jjc!

Have you checked in your settings? Is "always use 2G" unchecked?

Yes i've tried everything on this phone and still not working, i uncheked the option "Always use 2G network" and still i got the same problem.
Was that phone meant to be used with Orange? If it was not it could be possible that it's the same thing as when you use a T-Mobile phone on at&t or vise versa; you can’t connect to 3G because both companies have different frequencies.

OK I know that there's diference between those 2 companies T-Mobile and Orange Dominicana but the specification of the cellphone are:
General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100
and the network frequency that Orange has for 3G HSDPA is 900MHZ and the cell phone should be up and running with the 3G maybe the T-Mobile has another frequency about its 3G network but this cellphone supports also 900MHZ HSDPA that is my frequency here in DR., so there's nothing to fix this problem??
3G Orange Dominican Republic
only htc europe works with 3g orange Dominican republic
tmovile have dif 3g band
sry it will no work :-(
I ordered an unlocked 3g huawei e220 modem and it wont connect at all, I am trying to connect to Bell mobility's 3g network in Canada.After putting the Apn for bell and connecting through the ppp widget , it keeps saying "dialing out" and nothing happens. The modem has a continuos green blinking light too.
Can any one please help me here, I am getting so frustrated with this now
I know it's late but this 3G modem is not compatible with HSPA frequencies in North America.
Specs are:
HSPA on 2100Mhz Band for E220
Edge/GPRS: 850/1900
Bell do not have like Rogers 2G Gprs and have only:
Bell HSPA 850/1900, LTE Band 4 (AWS), Band 7 (2600)
Sorry!
I hope that somebody can help me. I live in The Netherlands and have Vodafone as provider and do not have 4g but only 3g as this is an old flat fee corporate account. If I set the Network mode on automatic (WCDMA/GSM) the phone will not connect to UMTS (3g) but only on GSM (Edge and GPRS) for data connections.
When I manually force (WCDMA only) Umts will work. Does anybody know how to fix this? I have the latest firmware. I prefer auto-switching as in some areas only GSM networks will be available. My iPhone 6 and Nexus 6 do not have this problem and will connect automatic to both networks, GSM when I make a call and UMTS if I need data. Could this be a modem issue? I already repalced my simcard and replaced my Note 4, both have the same issue. This is the Exynos and not the Snapdragon version.
My new LG G2 D802 seems to only want to conect to GSM, if I have it set to any other setting like GSM/Wcda auto, or LTE etc it wont even connect to GSM let alone the other networks? To be clear i can use the phone set to GSM, but not when set to the other settings, just keeps searching for network
I am in New Zealand on Vodafone network which is
2G - 900/ 1800 MHz GSM, GPRS
3G - 900/ 2100 MHz UMTS, HSPA, HSPA+, DC-HSPA+
4G - 1800 MHz LTE
so I think the phone should connect shouldnt it? I am in 3G/WCDA coverage (not in 4g currently to try)
Any ideas?
the phone is stock rom, rooted, Xposed etc, Kitkat 4.4.2
Thanks
Edit, I just clicked network operators and searched and it came up with Vodafone Gsm which i have selected. So i take it my phone cant see a 3g network?
I think I have solved it. I went into the hidden menu and changed the modem settings to my carriers frequency instead of auto. So fingers crossed. II havedone a reboot and it is still working too.
So I had 3g for the day or so and then its gone again, I tried my wifes sim card which is on a different network and seemed to work, so i will get a new sim card for myself and hopefully be ok. my current sim card works ok in her phone, it just struggles to find 3g in mine for some reason.
Got a new sim card now but it still struggle to find 3g maybe because I'm not in a main town centre but I should still have service here as I am in there coverage area and my wife gets coverage on her phone
Tried updating to lollipop but problemremains. It is disconnecting maybe because of poor 3g reception but then struggles to connect to 2g again. Only solution to have working phone is ro have it set on gsm only all the time. Not good
