[Q] 3G Issue with TMOUS Defy - Defy General

Looked for a while and only found stuff about using baseband switcher, so i did. switched it to all of the different options it had for tmobile and still none of them worked. neither edge nor 3g. it just hangs up and loads and then says connection failure.
not really sure if this is the right forum for this but here it is.
i would love any help. I'm using MIUI.

Before using any baseband switcher. I would recomend you setting up your APN first. Get it from your local ISP. Once you get your data signal back, then you can start playing with baseband switcher to obtian your best coverage.

how do i find my local isp? i just switched to CM7.1 stable and am having the same problem.

How is your 3G connection since latest radio install?

This isn't related to any particular ROM as I have tasted this with various sense and none sense ROMS... Has anyone since using the latest radio had issues with connecting to 3G or having very strange fluctuations, where the signal might go dead completely then back up to full?
I seem to be experiencing this with 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
nope seems fine with mine. OD rom in Australia

The mentioned Radio is really poor in 3G Network. Especially change between 3G and EDGE. When I disconnect from Wifi it too often doesnt connect to the GSM or 3G again - the bars are there, you can phone but cant use data connection.
I hope there'll be a updated radio soon!
Im not happy with 5.09.00.20.
Hi,
I'm also experiencing a poor 3G connection with this radio.
I'm not happy with that.
Vodafone Spain, also same while itinerance in Portugal, USA.
Best
this radio has been absolutely fine for me.
having poor reception at singapore here too...
should i downgrade the radio?
Working best for me. From Malaysia.
Not working at all well for me. All was working great until I flashed to this radio. I'm now experiencing complete signal drops at least once an hour, have to toggle airplane mode to re-enable.
I tried rolling back to each other radio bar the first 3 or 4 with the same result.
Could it be something else or am I missing something when rolling back the radio?
It works fine for me as long as I stay in Copenhagen, but I've experienced losing signal altogether when travelling, this didn't happen before, so I think it's because of the radio.
I have a weird issue where I never seem to be able to access the Internet in any way until the connection icon changes from "3G" to "H". Is this normal? I haven't noticed this on the stock radio but then I didn't keep it that long...
Still having this "issue". Anyone else?
New version is working really better here.
Where could one get that version? And is it supposed to work on any ROM without breaking it?
I have the 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 radio and am on Telus.
I have the same issue as you. When the icon shows 3G my internet doesnt work at all but as soon as it changed to H (bang) full speed internet..
It did it for me on the 32.43 radio but not on stock. Anyone know what the stock Telus Radio is?
Guys you do know on telus we dont have a 3G network its strictly "H" that would be why your internet does not work. I would like to know how you managed to get stuck in 3G as i never have.
I have no idea - i just updated radio and rom to 2.2 Official (but rooted) - i entered the apn settings from the telus website.
When on internet things will be fine, internet loading (H in task bar) and then suddenly it will turn to the 3G icon and internet will freeze until the H icon comes back. Strange...
When i go into the settings and check my phone model it says its a HTC Desire A8181 - i checked the internet and this model is 3G Dual-Band 900/2100MHz.
Before i flashed a 2.2 rom my model showed as HTC Desire 8182, which is 850/1900 3G.
Could this be why its getting stuck on 3G instead of H?
My model also displays HTC Desire A8181 and I'm running a 2.2 ROM.
I don't remember what it said before on the Telus stock rom, but I could try flashing it back to see, since I have it in backup.
If you could try flashing it back that would be great - i think i have my Nandroid backup but its on my works computer...

[Q] Defy CM7 Data connectivity problem

Hello guys!
I have i little problem with my CM7: every time when i try to connect to internet via data networks it gets me the data connection error and it won't load.
I've searched for the right apn settings, i've tried to see if it was a problem with the browser, but nothing changed.
What to do? Thanks
Does somebody have the same problem?
did you try band switcher yet?

Defy as modem with Eclair?
Hi,
Can Defy with Android 2.1 act as model for dial-up connection to connect to PC? if yes then how?
Thanks in advance...
I also have problems with data connectivity as well. I don't have a data plan, but I use WiFi for all my internet needs. But in CM7 I could not for the life of me download a picture message. Download of message failed. I had to reflash back to xd1 to get it to download.
There is a problem with the data connectivity. Has anyone researched into this?
Yes, i've tryied the baseband switcher but with no luck
Any solutions?
Is anyone able to get data but having problems with over all speed? 3g acting like 2g? After I flashed cm7 i was stuck on edge. Found out about the baseband switcher and i have 3g back using USA baseband .9 but not the speed that goes with it. Right now I'm over my 200mb "4g" cap so i have to wait till the 5th for my cycle to start over. I got 3g back with 5mb left to my cap. So how is data working for you?

[Q] problem with data connection CM 7.0.3

I have Edge access from Vodafone in India called mobile connect. I worked like a charm on stock HTC 2.2 ROM. I finally took the leap after finding HTC is not offering complete Gingerbread.
I found CM7 really good but one annoyance after having some troubles with importing SMSs.
I flashed 7.0.3 yesterday. Everything seems fine except data connection. It works randomly in my home. Works properly outside.
If my make a phone call then it connects and 'E' appears with two bars but only uploading. nothing downloads.
I tried *#*#4636#*#* and in phone information status appears as below when i choose "Enable Data connection"
==========DATA============
StatecInactiveState is connecting to vodafonegprs,1296,40427,www,,,,,,-1,*.
==========================
and after sometime is changes to
==========DATA============
StatecInactiveState disconnected with last try at 7.53PM fail because Radio not Available
==========================
I tried all options under "Set preferred network type" such as GSL Only, GSM Auto (PRL), GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) but none worked.
if Radio is not working then how are phone calls and SMS working !!!
I had flashed latest Radio also after flashing CM 7.0.3.
I read a lot about people losing 2G/3G data connection after switching from Wifi but I don't feel that is the problem with my phone.
Could anyone pls help?
Thanks in advance,
Ashish
I got the same problem. Probably. It does not work anywhere. The phone seems only uploading but it does not do anything, even the icon shows uploading. But no green icon of "H" or "E". I have GingerVillain based on CM7.
Upgrade to the 7.1.0RC release. A lot has been fixed since 7.0.3.
Swyped...
It seems that my APN settings was somehow changed - I had to set it according to my operator settings again. Dont know why or how but it was changed to "disabled_internet" instead of "internet" in APN.
it solved after I played around with radio band by pressing *#*#4636#*#*
I dont know what exactly solved it but after staying online when i was at office and outside, connection has been alive.

No Internet on UMTS (3g) only works on HSDPA (3.5g)

Hello all, I'm hoping somebody will be able to help. I've got a desire HD on 3 UK (I haven't contacted them coz tech support is useless and I don't want them to know I'm on a custom rom), running LordClock's ICS 8.6.1, My data works fine on 3.5g but as soon as phone switches to 3g I get no data at all. I've tried various roms I've Googled for hours and found no solution. I've checked APNs and tried various versions found on web, I've tried changing the WCDMA preferred option in hidden menu, I've cleaned and reseated the sim, and tried turning airplane mode off and on The annoying thing is data has worked on 3g on Ice cold sandwich in the past, I think v7.3. I was wondering if it had anything to do with build prop and have changed and added various lines but with no success. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated and thanks will be given to anyone who contributes. Thanks.
What do you mean by switching from 3G to 3.5G? There's only a toggle to switch between 2G and Automatic mode (2G/3G) in ICS right? How are you switching between the 2? Also what is this hidden menu where you switch to WCDMA preferred? (Just for my knowledge. I don't know about it). Does it work for you with different ROMs?
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Hi sashank, I meant just that when I lose a 3.5g signal and it automatically drops down to a 3g signal I'm not switching it myself, and if u go into the dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* u get a hidden menu called Testing with gives u info bout network or battery, check it out, the WCDMA option is in Phone info.
Hi, I have exactly the same problem. just to clarify, I am on the 3 network too, and when I have H (HSDPA) signal, the internet works..and works well. however as soon as it changes to 3G..the internet doesn't work at all
you should consider flashing other radios

4G Disappeared

I flashed the Lollipop version of Liquid Smooth on my AT&T G3 and at first everything was working fine, 4G included. After a couple of days 4G disappeared. When this happened it didn't just go to 3G, it lost all data service completely. I originally figured it was the ROM and flashed back to the previous ROM I had using the TWRP backup I made beforehand. Same story, no data service. Figured maybe it was the modem so I flashed a working G3 modem on here, same story. I flashed to a different Lollipop ROM, Resurrection, to see if that fixed anything, nope. This is the ROM I currently have installed. At this point I went and look at the mobile network options and immediately noticed 1 issue, the preferred service was 3G and not LTE. I had an option to change it to LTE but when I actually select LTE it doesn't actually switch, it just stays on 3G.
The one good thing I managed to do was switch the APN to one that worked with 3G. The APN that was originally set was "pta", I can provide the actual APN information if that'll be useful but I figure most ROMs are going to have similarly named APNs. 3G works on at least 2 of the APNs listed for this ROM, "broadband" and "wap.cingular".
I called AT&T and determined that I my 4G service wasn't cut off; not that I really thought it was anyway as that wouldn't explain why I can't even select 4G as a network type. I'm kind of at a loss as to how I just randomly lost 4G access without actually making any changes to the firmware or OS of the phone. I'm also at a loss of how I can get it back.
And I am just sitting here with 3G with speed of 2 Mbps...
No one has any ideas or advice?
