hi
i have diamond of Indian version and it is unable to register on any 3G network......... i just want to know is diamond support 3G
Yes... It has 3g and HSDPA/WCDMA. You can confirm it at www.htc.com.
No..Indian Version does not have 3g..Our chipset is different...It is Qualcomm® MSM7206A™ 528 MHz which is the same as Qualcomm MSM® 7201A™ 528MHz minus 3g chip and internal GPS...Man even I didn't know that before I buyed Diamond... So no 3G for p3490
I dont know about 3G but my HTC Diamond P3490 supports GPS.
I have tried it with Sygic MapmyIndia & it works really good.

Hi to all
i have duttys rom 1.5 and radio 1.00.25.05...
i have found that my nokia e51 have a full 3g network while diamond has only one point...
Even my old nokia 6680 have more network than my diamond...
Any one did some testing on the radios to check this ?
thanks
Network: Vodafone Pt
Why dont you do some testing and tell us?
any update for the american 3G using the DIAM100 ???
Any update???
Actually my BlueAngel was sold to me as a UMTS device, but I never intented to use this function until now.
But I don't see anywhere, that my lite, creepy (after several falls and showers) Angel has this functions.
So, is it possible to use UMTS or not?
nop the BA dosnt have UMTS hardware
The Harrier does support EVDO, the BA only support GPRS
The diamond with what ROM or Radio ever , shows the freaking US Nonstandard Standard of 850 and 1900 mhz for UMTS
But to use it for online purpose is impossible. It goes only to Edge what is closer to the speed of smokesigns .
The old touch cruise does well in the same areas with the same provider and the same settings .
Someone here who live also in the (Telephone development country) USA and figured out any solution ?
Thanks a lot
i do not have the international Version of the Diamond
sounds like you have the European (900+2100) diamond that does not have the us 3G (850+1900) bands. if this is the case you are stuck with EDGE.
it is true
but the radio or HTC ROM shows 850/1900 UMTS is this just another joke from HTC ?
Thanks
some roms show all the radio versions but are not usable because of hardware dependencies. my rom shows the china 1700 umts band but i know the hardware in my phone does not support it.
it's not htc but rather rom cookers leave all the available versions in windows so people from all parts of the globe can use their rom and see the bands for their country.
850 mhz Radio ?
did found this information quite old but HOPE.
"Sure, devoted ROM cooks were able to give the Euro-spec HTC Touch Diamond some 850Mhz frequency capability. And then HTC came out with their own ROM update that gave the HTC Touch Diamond EDGE-support on the 850Mhz band. But, without a dedicated 850/1900Mhz 3G radio under the hood, the HTC Touch Diamond just couldn’t crack the US market like we’d hoped."
SO is there a Radio, because the 850mhz is there and to get 3G seems a Radio Issue
Hello I live in New Zealand and we have a network here called Telecom XT which uses 3G freq: 850 & 2100 mhz.
Unfortunately all Motorola Defy sold here have their freq specified as: 3G Network: HSDPA 900 / 2100
I see in the development section there is a way to flash files to restore 3G coverage and one of the files has the 850 & 2100mhz that our Telecom XT network uses. Does this mean I can flash this file to enable those frequencies on this phone or does it mean that the Chinese versions of Defy have a different chip that supports the different frequency?
Hey,
Unless the Defy has a tri band WCDMA chip (which im pretty sure it doesn't) then you can't simply flash new radio firmware/RIL to enable frequencies.
If you want an XT compatible desire, your best bet is something from T-Mobile or more ideally Telstra Australia's NextG network, which is the same as XT. Mobicity for example sells NextG handsets which will work perfectly on XT.
If you have the 900mhz Defy i believe you are limited to Vodafone/2Degrees. Flashing these Radio/RIL fixes i think were because those with 850mhz handsets with issues running radios designed for 900mhz.
Just to confirm, Defy hardware can only do certain pairs of frequencies (e.g. as say mentioned on gsmarena.com) irrespective of what ROM is put on it ?
Is there anyway to find out (from model/serial number or other way) what hardware one has ? (for 3G frequency)
I'm pretty sure about mine, though I bought this Defy 2nd-hand and flashed it, so just wanted to be sure. (I flashed it with 900/2100 MHz ROM and it seems to work fine on T-Mobile 3G in London, UK. But wonder if there is a way to check - perhaps for another unit....)
I recently moved to Thailand with my DHD and got the news from the biggest (and kinda only good 3G provider) that the 3G net here operates on 850 Mhz and the DHD only works on 900 mhz and above.
My question is:
Is it possible to get the DHD to work on 850mhz without making any hardware alterations? ( only tweaking software etc )
Only smart phones they have here are Iph*ne4 and Bl*ackberrys....
I dont wanna go there......
Best regards,
Henrik
