Hi,
I got my O2 Orbit a day before leaving the UK for Qatar so didn't get a chance to suss this out before I left.
I'm still running on my O2 sim etc. When I arrived the GPRS doesn't register and the GPRS/internet connections etc all keep asking for a modem setup.
Qtel is the operator here but talking to them about roaming internet/gprs connectivity with an xda is fruitless.
I can't get much help out of O2 either....There's got to be a way, there has to be a way.....
Can anybody help at all? Please?
try this
After two or three trips away with o2 device and lots of calls back to the uk my solution was to go through all available networks one at a time and force the device to try data connections I still need to do this five years on even after telling o2 how to connect
Hello everybody,
I apologise in advance if there exists an answer elsewhere, but I have been searching for the past week to no avail. I'd appreciate if somebody could point me to the right thread/direction.
I upgraded from my stock mda vario2 rom, to the latest schaps (WM6).
Everything works ultra fine but I there is no 3G! I have tried a few different radios and right now i'm on 1.43. I still cannot make video phone calls. The icon is stuck on G. I'm in east london btw.
I believe my O2 uk settings are right though , to te best of my novice knowledge that is.
Again I apologise if this is already addressed in another thread or wiki. Mods, please delete my post if it is a repitition.
Appreciate any help.
Cheers!
you have a tmobile phone or an o2 phone? goto phone settings and check its set to auto
Thanks for the reply,
I have the t-mobile's mda vario2. Tried that already but its still on G.
i have the same problem with an orange 3100. it will only find G not 3G. i have even tried swapping sims but no luck. i have tried all the different settings cabs i can find but no luck
i'm using an orange spv m3100 with no problems on o2uk, and i had 1.43 until yersterday.
o2's signal seems to be inferior to that of orange; i.e. 3g reception not as good
for example i do not get a 3g signal at home on o2, but did on orange, however i do get a 3g signal outside and in other places (on o2)
goggle the site for the field test software.

Call O2 customer service and ask whether you have 3G access activated on your SIM card. I have bought O2 pay as you go SIM card some time ago and it did not access 3G at all, since the very beginning on any 3G phone. Somewhere on the receipt or SIM pack (don't remember now) I've found sth like 'SIM 2G' so that way I figured out card is not meant to log into 3G. But I never bothered to call CS anyway, as I very rarely use that SIM.
Thanks guys,
I'll try all ur suggestions, I did try swapping sims with my wife, hers is an O2 sim which actually has the letter 3G on it, but nope its still Ging on me. I will give O2 a call.
I would like to change network provider from O2-Vodafone but still use my Orbit. Will this work and how would I stop it automatically installing the o2 GPRS settins?
Thanks
hi, i purchased a O2 XDA orbit about 3 weeks ago and the person i purchased it from said it was locked to O2. When i recieved the phone it worked straight away with the vodafone sim card. after reading a few threads it seems as tho the O2 XDA orbit's are unlocked already?
i'm not sure how to stop the O2 settings from starting but im sure i seen somewhere that if you soft reset by pressing the little button on the side with a pin as soon as the o2 settings start that should bypass it??
i cid unlocked mine and flashed the Touch 3 vanilla rom and its running sweet with pocketPBplus 4.0.
it automatically setup the settings for vodafone and i can send and recieve mms and also browse online thru the vodafone gprs
hope this helps as its my first post!

Had my desire since Thursday April 1st, on T-Mobile, my first android phone so just getting to grips with it...
Today it won't connect to mobile network for data, I can make calls ok, just not browse web or use anything that requires a network connection like google maps or e-mail, there is no G or H or 3G in the menu bar, just a signal strength indicator, Mobile Network is enabled in settings btw, before you ask!
I still have my Touch Diamond 2 and the sim works fine in that for data so not a T-Mobile Issue I don't think, my O2 Sim (from Diamond 2) works fine in TD2 and not in Desire also...
Think it may have had it, was working fine Thursday to Today...
I've tried restoring to factory settings from the Privacy Menu entry and that has made no difference (incidentally, the restore from backup it offered me didn't appear to restore anything, no contacts etc carried over... so won't rely on that again either)
Is this anything typical for Android or have I just got a freak phone
Any help gratefully received or I'll have to get it swapped.
EDIT: Perhaps should point out that my Desire is not T-Mobile Branded/SIM Locked, it's from Carphone Warehouse, so is running unbranded HTC Rom (OTA Firmware update installed on first day within about 2 hours of getting phone)

Same thing happing to me all day, my phones also from CPW I cant get on the web or youtube or Google the Beeb or applications or anything else online All working ok since last week when I got it apart from it been very hit and miss conecting to anything online.
@popkid, T-mobile usually send mobile data & MMS settings by SMS as soon as you insert your SIm into a new phone. If this did not happen visit the T-mobile support site, there is a page where you can provide your mobile number and T-mobile will send you the settings.

My phone was bought from CPW on a T-Mobile contract, the sim I am using is a T-Mobile sim from my HDT HD2 which I had only 2 weeks ago, the sim was working fine in the HD2, the sim I received with the Desire was given to my Mam. I've been on the T-Mobile site and entered my number but when the choose your phones appears the HTC Desire is not there.

Settings were working just fine Thursday to Yesterday... it just stopped working for data overnight, got it to work for about 10 mins earlier after another factory reset, but then the H in menu bar disappeared again, O2 sim doesn't work for data in the Desire either... T-Mobile and O2 sims both work fine in my TD2, definitely seems to be a problem with the Desire itself or the ROM on it at least
On rebooting with new sim the desire asks for network and says it is configuring, but once you get to the social networking bit it says it can't connect to the network and to enable mobile data settings... (which are already enabled) I didn't get a text from T-Mobile when I first had phone btw.

Well it's all of a sudden started working for me, must just be a server problem I think, no doubt it will revert back to being very slow or not conecting again tomorrow
popkid:
I read somewhere, try to turn on then off the flight mode.
That could trigger the phone to activate the mobile network.
Otherwise, I suggest to give HTC a call.
Working... Finally
Tracked down the issue with mine... I think anyway, seems to be randomly deleting the APN info from the Mobile Network Settings, if I notice that I have no network and go to that page it is empty... reselect the network I'm on and it sorts itself out, no idea why they are being erased though!
Definitely not a server issue for me as the SIM works in my other phone when not working in desire...

Sorry - wrong post for thread.
Guys I need some help,
I cant work out what is causing this issue.
phone registered in UK.
I had vodafone, three and virgin sims with this phone and all was working fine, i recently switched to O2 and My mobile data is not working any more, I checked APN many times, O2 offers automatic set up with apn when sending txt msg to 2020 and they send you back txt with settings. tried that as well.
I do receive full signal but no data, i spoke with o2 about that and they say its phone.
I doubt that, its very wired as i tried this sim (its payg) in different phone and it worked fine! ,I also tried friends o2 contract sim in my phone and it worked as well!
so the issue is , that mobile data doesnt work when my sim is used in my phone, other combinations works fine...
I have to admit that i did fiddle a bit in hidden menu ,have i changed sth that could mess up phone with this specific sim?
I have tried flashing phone with uk o2 firmware with LGUP (refurbish mode) and open europe official rom as well - no difference.
Any suggestions?
