Tre italian sim in a 3g sim,is there a manner to make it work with some change of register?
Thankssss a lot.
Yes... go abroad and use GSM roaming...
If you want to use it in Three network in Italy, change to HTC Hermes (HTC TyTN) or other UMTS (3G) device. Other way is to change network to GSM one.
Thanks a lot for your answer...I ask it above all to some expert user or admnistrator!!!Anybody didn't never work on this thing?
byeeee
You should just go to the menù voice 'options/opzioni' , choose the tab 'network/rete' and select 'manual/manuale' from the top-down menù 'network selection/selezione della rete' then select a GSM network (Tim in your case).
Hope it may help
Ciao
if three in Italy are anything like Three in the UK, they lock their SIMs to their own branded handsets.
There will be a small application running on the SIM which looks for some corresponding code on the handset itself which Three put in all their customised firmware. If the SIM does not see this code on the handset, the SIM does not initialise or register to the network.
Network selection
Hi, I have similar problem, I`m abroad now and want to change network. Whatever I click:
network selection
find network
set network
I get just responce, that the service is not available at this moment. When I put the sim card to other phone, I`m able to chnage the mobile network without any problems. Have you heard about any problems with changing networks on XDA Orbit?
I`m currently in Bulgaria, but it shouldn`t matter as it works with other phone.
Thx Ziki
I think the reason is very simple: 3 is UMTS only, P3300 is GSM.
Well, actually I don't know if you can use 3 in roaming with TIM for GSM....

I have a Orange SIM card which I got in Israel, I am now in Canada and that SIM works fine on my friends Nokia 6600, but when I try to use it with my XDA IIs I can't find any networks or anything. I am guessing its the GSM frequecy although the phone supports all of them. Does anyone have any idea what I need to do to get the SIM to work here? Does anyone know how to manually select a GSM frequency?

Hello psytech,
I believe you're roaming. Sometimes, you really cannot just plug your sim card then voila its working. If you are roaming, most of the time you really have to manually select the network.
anyway, i'm currently using windows mobile 2005, and no longer using windows mobile 2003 SE. i hope i could still help you or atleast you can see the pattern on how to do it.
here what you do:
1. click on the signal strength icon (the icon located on the upper right most portion of your screen just beside the speaker icon)
2. a dialogue box will appear with a clickable 'settings' button (located on lower left part of the dialogue box.), click the 'settings'
3. you will then see 3 tabs on the bottom part of the screen, 'phone', 'services', 'network'. click on 'network'.
4. you should find something like 'find network' button there, then just but before you click on it, choose 'manual' for network selection.
the rest is self explanatory, i hope i was able to help you. cheers!
You say your orange sim works fine on your friends nokia but does not work in your IIs.
Is it possible that your IIS device is sim locked as in will only work on the O2 network in the country you got it from.
If so unlock it via wiki (link in sig)
not it
I forgot to mention that the SIM worked fine in Isreal, my original SIM is orange (I do have an account with) I just can't get support cause I didn't buy the phone from them (capitalists).
About the network search. Thats what I've been doing for the last couple of days but I can not find ANY networks at all. which is what leads me to believe that its a GSM frequency problem.
What happens if you put your friends sim in your phone
GSM in Canada is generally 1900 http://www.gsmworld.com/roaming/gsminfo/cou_ca.shtml
doesn't work either
My friend's SIM doesn't work on my phone either. If canada is 1900, how can I make sure that my phone is currently using 1900. (I know it supports it, but how do I actually see that its actually scanning with it?)
What happens if you go to Settings->Phone->Network and then change Network Selection to Manual.
You should then get a list of networks. This will list all networks even if you cannot connect to them.
[edit] This has already be suggested earlier in the thread
If you do get some networks then the only reason that I can think of that you are not connecting is that under Prefered Networks you have a network selected that your carrier does not have a roaming agreement with.
Check your provider's website to see who they have agreements with.
no networks
My provider (Orange) has agreements with Rodgers, but my problem is that I am not listing ANY networks, I tried manual and even added the Rodgers network to my favorite networks, but when I try to search for networks I can't find any, I just get a blank window. This is very odd to me and I've never heard of anyone with that problem.
Like I've mentioned before, I updated my windows to TuMa 1.4 and my radio to 1.1.15. If there's anything else I need to do or anything I may not have done when I updated my network please tell me.
btw when I installed that TuMa windows I change my ID thingy to Tmobile.
Problem solved
Attenttion everyone:
It has come to my attention that there is a problem in the Band Selection CAB when it comes to certian cellular providers.
The problem so far appears on a Cellular One network that only supports 850Mhz. When the North American Option is choosen in the Band tab, the phone can not find a network to register on. I'm not quite sure why this happens yet, but there is a solution to fix.
http://relaysgoldens.com/sx66/ext_roms/BandSelect-fix.CAB
By installing this CAB, it provides a fourth option on the band tab, "Reset Value to Zero".
By selecting this option, the phone will be reset to it's default state, and will work normally.
I've trapped this as a bug in the 1.40.124 extrom and will be working to figure this out.
Note: the band selection setting is persistant, and will not be reset even if you downgrade the ROMs on the phone. If you are experiencing this problem, the ONLY way to reset the value is to use the CAB above.
-Chris
P.S. I've also updated the 1.40.124 RAR file on the website to include the updated bandselect CAB.

Hello,
thanks to buzzdev's great tool (you are the greatest!) my MDA Pro German now accepts all SIM cards. However, with every SIM card I tried (Eplus/BASE, o2 with UMTS enabled) I never get access to UMTS, even in the center of my town. With the T-Mobile SIM however, UMTS works immediately. Has anybody else experienced this problem? I also tried to hard reset and skip the customization.
Greetings from Bonn, Germany

i also have bought a german mda pro and unlocked it. i am using it in austria and umts works correctly.
Re: MDA Pro German unlocked; UMTS still only works with T-Mo

Maybe you should check if the other providers:
- supports UMTS
- your connection settings are right
- you need a special account to use UMTS
- UMTS is available in your area with that provider
If T-Mobile enabes UMTS for you doesn't mean all providers do.

Yes, I ordered the UMTS option which caused all my SIM-Cards to be replaced by USIMs. The town I live in is medium-sized (300,000 inhabitants), and I checked about eight places - no success. (Typically, UMTS is available in every German town which has about 50,000 inhabitants or more)
What happenes is quite weird: When I switch the phone on, enter my PIN and connect to the network, the UMTS Symbol ("U") appears for about one or two seconds. Then it disappears, the connection gets lost, and the phone reconnects by GSM. It seems that the phone (or the provider?) throws me out just after a successfull UMTS connect.
I also verified that the GPRS/3G connection is set up correctly (APN surfo2, no username and password).
Greetings,
Andreas
you probably already have checked the radio band settings, but its worth a try. have you enabled umts band in telefon - einstellungen?

Yes, UMTS is not disabled; I also tried "WCDMA only", but then no connection can be established.
hmmm, have you tried a hardreset and/or a new/different rom?

Yes, I thought that maybe there was some stupid locking in the T-Mobile GER ROM, so I used the latest Qtek German ROM, I also tried the O2 XDA Exec Launch ROM (UK), but nothing changed.

Are you sure there should be no username/password ? http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html suggests that it should be guest/guest.

Yes, the website you mentioned is a bit outdated. The official o2 Website (Germany) http://www.o2online.de/o2/kunden/technikundeinst/umts/tools/manuell/index.html states that username/password are "nicht notwendig" (=not necessary).
Ah well, I thought it was worth a mention.
Good luck
i guess the question for another radio rom is obsolete.
so i think your last solution is to get a contract with tmobile j/k
im sorry, i think i wont be able to help you....

That's ok, thanks for trying anyway I'll post again if I find a solution.
does anybody knows if there is an autoconfigurator for italian telephone providers?
hi everyone..
can someone help?
i have a new sim card from a german provider (moobicent), who offer HSDPA flatrate using vodafone's network.
i insert the sim card in a normal nokia mobile phone, enter my PIN and the phone (as to be expected), logs into the vodafone network.
i insert the SIM into my HTC hermes (of course it's unlocked - it's also running the ROM TNT Pro 2), when i put in the PIN, the phone looks for network and after approx 300 seconds, i get the PIN screen again.
can anybody tell me why my Hermes won't logon to the network? (i have used all sorts of SIMS from various providers, never with any problems).
HELP!
thanks & regards.
Strange things over here...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well...
I managed to flash my LG KS20 to KissROM WWE, and everythig is just fine...
But under my phone's preferred network settings there are many new gsm networks I dont use and Even if I thick them out or change them in order...it says It couldnt save the settings to the network...
And sometimes (maybe caused by this) My phone changes to roaming mode to another GSM provider which I am not the subscriber of....
Its only just with my Yoigo Sim,
With the Vodafone ES, this problem not exists...
Is it possible to change the preferred networks list somehow from file or from outside??
Or the NV2 holds all that info?
Hi Guys,
The problem I have with all networks except in uk t-mobile, the other orange, vodafone, o2. When trying to connect to the o2 message pops up: "unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later" on t-mobile grabs network without any problem. The problems began when I came to the UK to Poland was all too dobrze.I change to GSM mode, but without effect only if o2 uk only when I set the GSM (PRL) range but appeared only in the city outside the city it was lost and only work network HSPDA.

I asked the operator if a phone is a phone is not on the blacklist he wrote that everything is ok
I hope that everybody will understand me because I wrote the translate: D
Thanks
Sounds to me like it's network locked to T-mobile UK, try using the sim unlocking tool here. The fact that it will work on t-mobile uk suggests there is nothing wrong with the hardware
