Hi,
Is there any way of displaying whether the One X is connected to an 850Mhz, 1900Mhz or 2100Mhz band? *#*#4636#*#* doesn't seem to give the info.

Hey,
I was wondering if there was anyway to tell in detail what band i am on.
My phone should be connecting to telstra's UMTS 850 network, but i think it is only connected to the 3g 2100 network. Is there anyway to check?
Same with my data connections, i dont think it is connecting at the higher speed 850 band, and has reverted back to the slower standard 3g 2100 band.
Im using schaps 3.54b
Cheers
Daniel Herrera's Bandswitch will tell you which band you're on and allow you to change at will. Get it HERE....
Another one is from Shogunmark and is HERE...
You should be able to check them: phone>menu>options>band. Once there, you can select your band or go auto.
yeah, it seems i cant get on band 850 (telstra's nextg network) with any of the new roms.
very strange.
BTW...what radio version are using?
Check out this excellent engineering mode app. It says what band you're currently using.

Can anyone confirm if the Band Selection menu is available. It's critical for me being on Bell's swiss cheese network to be able to manually select a band to get service in a particular area. Otherwise I'll need to wait an extra month and go with Rogers.
I don't understand what you mean. The phone's compatible only with Bell's 850/1900 HSPA bands. What other bands can you switch to?
Through the band selection menu you can choose to only use 850 and not have it search for 1900 constantly. In an area where 1900 doesn't penetrate very well it will intermittently fall back to 850 but will always continue to search for 1900 which leads to a lack of signal most of the time.

who said so?
The phone comes with a penta-band 3G chip which allows it to connect to any 3g network around the world.
Hi All,
I am using my HTC Wildfire on a service provider network that provides 3G Services at 850 MHz.
Is there a way to find out what frequencies my phone supports?
At the moment it is connecting only using EDGE and not 3G
Please guide.

It uses HSDPA which is 3g+

Ok....Just read the specification again on the Phone Box. It says
HSDPA/WCDMA (900/2100 Mhz)
GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
This means that I cannot get 3G Speeds if the network operator frequency is 850 MHz. I seem to be stuck to EDGE
Is there a way to change this using software?
Don't think so if it is controlled by the network. You would never reach the 3g band if the network limits it to 850mhz. The only solution is to switch network. My network allows the maximum speed possible which is HSDPA.
Adelaide has a 2100MHz network and a 850MHz network covering the entire city. The 850MHz network is the newer out of the 2 networks by about 4 years and has a lot less users. Is there any way I can force the phone to not use the 2100MHz band? Thanks!
Hello,
I have a D851 T-Mobile with Lollipop (D85120B) and I am unable to connect to WCDMA 850 or 1900Mhz bands. GPRS, EDGE and LTE work. If I select WCDMA only on the Mobile network screen, I lose signal and if I use the engineering menu ( 3845#*851#) to select WCDMA 850 I lose signal as well. GSM 850 (EDGE) and GSM 1900 (GPRS) on my provider (Fido/Rogers Wireless) works, however.
After I noticed this, I used QPST NV Editor to set the NV_RF_BC_CONFIG_I option to include all mobile bands. Unfortunately, I am still unable to get signal with HSPA. The phone support GSM 850 / GSM 1900 according to the box. Is this a firmware issue? Does T-Mobile firmware just not support HSPA?
Has anyone encountered this problem or come up with a solution?
Thanks in advance.
