[Q] Motorola Defy Help! - Defy General

This morning my phone lost i-net. I'm no longer able to connect to internet using 3G my browser says error on network and android market says "no connection" or something like that
The icon "H" is still displayed in status bar indicating that there is HSPD connection, but there isn't. Under the "H" there are two arrows pointing up and down, wich usualy stayed gray while no data used, and become bright while data is used. Now "down arrow" is bright all the time - something wrong. The problem is that I haven't touch any settings recently it just gone wrong this morning.
I've done hard reset - no luck, same problem.
now even cannot send sms.
What is wrong ? can I tottaly reset the phone somehow?
P.S. SIM card seems to be alright. I've put it in another phone and i-net and messages go allright.

..how do I get rid of this HSDPA ?
I want force it to regular UMTS (3G)

Hi yonef!
Firstly, I think that HSDPA is the only 3G system in this fone.
So, if you really wanna test if everything is working fine, I suggest you try to put it in 2G mode and check stuff.
Go here: Settings > Wireless & network settings > Mobile Networks > Select network
and select 2G only.
Now try to SMS and surf and see if stuff works. If its still a dud, then a call to the customer care is what you really need!
Although am quite new to android, I have been successfull in modding my trusty old Sony Ericsson K550i fone

yeep, I've just found that 2G kind of working, It is receiveing data (slow), but occasionally it says that there is no connection to internet.
It should be something with the phone, because when I put this very SIM in another phone, 3G is working just fine. When I put it back to the motorola, it is connecting ( "H" symbol apears but there is no internet
Hard reset did not fix it
And it happens jut this morning, I havent touch any settings since last week (weird)

not automatically connecting to 3G (T-Mo w/ WMLonglife)

I installed WM Longlife and I didn't like the popups that came everytime I opened an application that wanted to connect to the internet; so I uninstalled it. Then I noticed that my TP2 will no longer connect to 3G automatically even when I was in several different 3G zones. I installed Longlife again and used their switcher to connect to 3G and it worked. I tried tweaking the settings back to normal and then uninstalling it again, but the same problem with automatic connection occurred again. As we speak, my phone is sitting in a 3G network but is connected to EDGE.
Any thoughts?
Man, I have the same problem! Im using a Touch Pro, but same bad!
check to see if 3G is disabled. You could be locked on to just GSM instead of of GSM/WCDMA.
Settings>Phone>Band & make sure they're both set to Auto
You all crack me up
Hard reset time
I have the same issue. My phone doesnt connect to 3G ever...ive seen the icon change from Edge to 3G but very fast...it doesnt stay on. hmmm I hope tmobile or someone here finds a fix for it..i feel like im missing out using Edge..
If the advice posted by xnifex doesn.t work here is what you could do (other than hard reset ), reinstall wmlonglife, soft reset, wait the app to load, than chose from ,,band switcher,, 3g auto, wait till you see the taskbar icons change to 3g. Now you can uninstall the app (used to happen to me too)

3G and HSPDA connection Problem..

I changed the apn settings on my desire and now I am having problem connecting to the internet using either 3G or hSPDA. before changing the settings I was able to connect to the internet using 3G but now when I have try to go online and the 3G icon is displayed the phone does not do anything and if it will evetually connect to the internet it will only do via the H (HSPDA)... I have reset the apn to default and its all the same, no improvement, I have input the mms settings again with no effect.... no its getting on my nerves now... am thinking of reseting the phone back to factory settings.....
I suggest you get new settings from here: http://support.t-mobile.co.uk/help-and-support/index?page=home&cat=SOFTWAREDOWNLOADS

thanks for that
tried it but they only had hd2 and touch 2 listed for phones under android...
So far i believed that hd2 and touch 2 phones are wm not android :? ??? strange...
are there any options for different android phones? hero, magic, etc... as they should work with desire
just go to the APN settings and press Menu>return to defaults. The settings are preprogrammed in for t-mobile UK, and they are definitely correct.
As for not being able to connect on 3G, that is a known t-mobile issue. When 3G is showing, it is supposed to change up to H when you try and send/receive data. sometimes, their network does not change up successfully, and you end up sitting on 3G with no data transfer.
turn mobile data off and back on again and that usually fixes it. There's three or four threads on that on the T-mobile website.
Now this is interesting ...
After I read your reply below, I think that issue is NOT only in the UK.
Because I use T-Mobile NL and I got exactly the same problem!!!
I am still using my HTC Kaiser though and I was (still) confused why I "suddenly" could not connect to the internet
I use Opera Mini, at first it was connected fine, browsed several websites and then suddenly dead on ... cannot connect.
Restart Opera Mini, same issue ... the connection still there.
Restart the data connection ... there you go, I was able to browse again.
Damn! I did not know that this is T-Mob issue I tried to clean my WM device, reinstall Opera and whatnot ....
Oh yeah, this issue just happened recently ... like a month or two months.
Before that, I have no problem like this.

No internet available via Mobile Network ?

Hey Y'all
I spent all day trying to figure out why I have lost my internet on my Desire.
I can browse using my wireless, but if I turn off WIFI, all I get is Webpage not available. (On any page I try)
I have been into the APNs to check the settings & they are all ok.
I am with Orange Uk & have an unlimited Internet package.
The little 3g arrows are flashing?
Also I have 70 meg Phone memory & I get a warning if try to intall a 1meg game, saying "Out of Space Program could not be viewed. Free up some space on your phone and try again".
Any help from the experts would be really appreciated.
Thanks

I had the same problem with the interent, turned the phone off then on, and internet started working again.
Ok further update.
My emails are working?
I just rang orange & they sent me the settings via text & told me to shut of my phone & remove the battery, then boot it up, & as expected, that did NOTHING!
So I have no idea why I can only browse using WIFI.
Mobile is enabled, I'm not in aeroplane mode, or anything daft like that.

What values do you get if you go:
settings/about phone/network
look at signal strength. might give you a clue.
i'm on orange uk and my desire can be tempremental. it's loads better outside of central london. perfect on wifi. if i'm in a pub in town trying to read the news, or on the bus home, sometimes i get next signal at all.
what i try, and this seems to work sometimes, is turning mobile on/off a few times, or even powering down/up.
ps. it's confusing when you make a statement and then put a question mark at the end (your emails are working? what does that mean - are you asking us, or telling us you're not sure, or what?)
I mentioned this in a different thread...
Do you switch off wifi correctly?
I found that when I am connected via wifi and then go out of range my mobile network can't connect to the internet.
I have to turn of wifi manually every time in order to have the mobile network working.
Usually switching to airplane mode and than back again solves this issue.
The important thing is to always switch from wifi to mobile network manually. It's quite annoying but it's not the end of the world.
Thanks for your replies.
I rang Orange again today, usual call centre.
It turned out in the end that I had lost my WAP settings.
The call centre talked me through setting up the WAP APN settings & the Internet came back.
Don't know how I lost them in the first place?

[Q] No way I can connect to 3G??!

**Solved**: it could not retain, for some reason, my APN settings. I reset it to factory defaults and it worked...
Hello everyone! A couple of weeks ago I got my DHD (Software version is 1.75, stupid OTA...). My data plan will start this Saturday, so I hadn't really looked into it, but I can't, for the life of it, make it connect to 3G...
It is, perhaps, important to say that it's a T-mobile branded phone (the T-mobile logo appears upon boot-up) from Germany, but obviously it's SIM-free.
Mobile Network Type is listed as HSDPA, but I never see a 3G or H icon, with WiFi on or Off.
If I turn Mobile Network on it gets stuck at "connecting to network", but if I reboot it says it's connected - but still no icons or incoming data.
Any ideas? Could it be that it's from T-mobile? I'm on Wind, btw.
Thanks!

[Q] HOX data signal not working nicely

Hey guys, I have a problem in my HOX. I am using Digi iPhone plan on my HOX
I am using GSM most of the times (just to receive whatsapp msg), and WCDMA sometimes for web browsing
However, lately I found out a problem which is the phone shows the right network icon but no network data going through my phone. I used an app called "Network Signal Info" to check on it...and it shows there is no data connectivity...and I have to restart the phone to make thing works again...
Any idea on what is happening?
