Impossible to connect to 3G or HSDPA, only EDGE

Hello guys!
I'm from Mexico and I just get a flat data plan for my Diamond but there's no way to get a 3G connection and neither HSDPA.
My carrier is Telcel.
I've already tested the following radios:
3, 5, 6, 8, 11, 14 and 18 with no succeed.
I also replaced the SIM Card for the latest version (v.4) and nothing.
I don't know what else I can do.
My brother have a Tilt and he connects to HSDPA easily; comparing the 2 devices the only difference I noticed is that when selecting the WCDMA band on the Tilt makes the connection with no trouble, but if I do the same on the Diamond, it never make the connection to the network.
Does anybody knows what can I do now?
Should I wait for a new Radio or there's no way to conect to HSDPA on my country with the Diamond?
Thanks.

Does your carrier supports 3G?

What 3G band do you carrier use, and which version if diamond did you get? It might be that your carrier use 850/1900mhz 3G band, and you got a Euro version diamond.

Is 3G actually switched on or are you camped to 2g? Check COMM MANAGER and make sure 3G is enabled?

Enabled.
I refuse to believe my phone is not compatible with the local network

1. You havent told us which phone version you have. US or the original one?
2. If you "refuse to believe" anything, your'e not going to get accurate data, now are you?

1. I don't know the version of my phone; I bought it in the US but this was before the release for US, so I'm not certain.
Is there any way to verify which version I have?
2. I said I refuse to believe that because of the great programmers that are loose in this forum; they can do practically everything they want if the device is capable; and I'm pretty sure the Diamond is compatible with this network; I'm hoping there will be a Radio version that will activate [email protected]
Thank you for all your post and interest; this is a great community

I forgot where to check this, but do check if your diamond is DIAM100 or DIAM110. If you got DIAM100, then it mean you got the Euro version, so no 3G for you.

Front Camera
More easy, if you have the front camera you have European Version, and not have 3G, the american version not have front camera.
Lamentablemente nos engañan permanentemente, si es cuatribanda en telefonía pero no en 3G- y según los que saben no tiene arreglo porque es un tema de hard.

Pero no te conecta a 3G cierto??? Creo que yo tambien voy a vender el mio, digo la verdad me encanta pero es europeo y por lo que veo de plano si es un tema de hardware o al menos no veo que alguien este haciendo un esfuerzo serio para ver como utilizar un Diamond Europen en 3G Americano.

No North America 3G in this version. It is not a software fixable issue. It is much easier to come to the facts when one believes...

No, no me conecta; al menos no noto diferencia de velocidad.Por algun motivo consume una cantidad enorme de batería y se enciende el icono de 3G en lugar de la E que tengo en los otros roms.

Uno mas al club...
Hola paisano
Yo tambien ya cambie con todas las rom, y checando el foro esperando a que alguien haga el milagro, pero creo que ya valió...
Lo que si, es que de todos modos con el plan ilimitado me sirve bastante bien el cel, y checa mi correo cada 10 minutos, con un uso normal me dura entre uno y dos dias la bateria. Estoy utilizando la version elite 3.0 WWE y radio.05 con buena recepción.
Ahi si se enteran de que alguien hizo lo imposible y hace funcionar la version europea con 3G me chiflan...
Saludos!!!

Screen in american version
The american version have a yellow screen (cremita) and the european is snow white. If you have both in your hands for me the european is better.

Si no usan el 3G la eropea tiene una pantalla muy blanca y la americana es medio triste y le faltan contrastes (tuve las dos en mis manos), por lo tanto analicen bien que quieren, ya que está por salir a la venta la bateria de 1300 original y queda un maquinón. Si son 3g dependientes no tiene arreglo
Carlos

That is not correct; only a few NA units had poor color balance.

According to HTC, they told me that the 3G Touch Diamond that has no front camera is the same as the European version. On my phone I show an H, most of the time and E all the other times. Every now and then I will see 3G, but just for a second then ..x...then it picks up E.

Really dude? That wasn't neither helpful nor nice, he needs help and all you can do is bash the "only english" rule?
Yes I know I'm reviving a dead thread but at least I'll try to help.
harman2,There could be as much as infinite possibilities as to what could be wrong with the phone.
Things to check:
1) does it have an IMEI? to check type *#06# on the phone. Sometimes when someone tries to unlock the SGS they accidentally corrupt the file where the IMEI resides. IF it doesn't have an IMEI don't even try to look for a way around it, you have a pretty looking paperweight. So far I haven't found a way to fix this.
2) If the IMEI is there, it's possible the kernel you're using doesn't recognize the Claro signal. You'd have to try and install the STOCK ROM that Claro PR uses for you to get the signal.
3) If everything seems fine then most likely your missing the APN.
Go to: Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
If Claro isn't in the options then hit Menu > Newk APN.
Name: Claro
APN: internet.claropr.com
Menu > Save
This is all I could think off. Hope this helps in some way.
harman2, Aqui puede ser que hayan una infinita cantidad de cosas que pueden estar mal con tu celular.
Cosas a verificar:
1) Tiene IMEI? para verificar ve a telefono y marca *#06#. Si no tiene un IMEI, no trates de buscarle la vuelta, no tiene solucioin, tienes un lindo pisapapeles. Lo que pasa es cuando mucha gente trata de cambiarlos de compañia (desbloquearlos) corrompen un file que es donde se guarda el IMEI. Hasta ahora no he encontrado solucion al problema.
2) Tiene el kernel correcto? Si no tienes el kernel correcto no busques mucho q no va ni a reconocer la señal de Claro. Tendrias que buscar el STOCK ROM de Claro para que intentes reconocer la señal.
3) Tiene el APN? Para verificar ve a Configuracion > Conexiones Inalambricas > Redes Moviles > Nombres de punto de acceso
Si no esta la de claro, dale a menu > nuevo apn
Nombre: Claro
APN: internet.claropr.com
Menu> guardar
Esto es lo basico que se me ocurre que pueda ser. Epero que te haya ayudado en algo.

I don't think that he reads your post as it's an old thread. But maybe a forum moderator comes and moves/deletes the thread(You know there's a new sticky thread?.

I know this thread is old, but as long as it's still open, anyone can post a comment and anyone with the same problem can benefit from other people posts.
That said, Let's go to the topic.
1. Contrary to what most people could think, not having Claro's or any other carrier signal has nothing to do with APN's. APN's are for data/internet use.
2. I had that same problem when testing different Gingerbread Roms long time ago.
3. The no signal issue was caused by the rom's modem. Sometimes they have certain bands/frequencies turned off by default or even worse, not availabe at all. In my case, the phone was detecting T-Mobile only. I had to check the active bands with *#*#2263#*#* and turn on the 850 MHz band which was off. After that everything worked like a charm.

Quisiera alguien que me ayudase en este tema porque la rom que trae instalada mi dispositivo esta bien capada de permisos y no me deja hacerle nada de configuración, overcloking y varias apk's que pueda instalare para el mantenimiento para el terminal. Simpre me aparecen mensajes de Permiso denegado o no se encuentra o por el estilo
Por lo que se y he buscado no tiene BootLoader, ni recovery, y al intentar flashearlos desde el fastboot el bootloader da el siguiente error "Unknow Partition Name" y el recovery no da fallo, pero al intentar arrancarlo el telefono se queda pillado.

If Yours Is a fake, then none of the methods in this forum will work. If it Is a variant, then find the forum for that Specific device. I7100 Is not the International version (GT-N7100).

The thing is that there is an alternative if not a forgery based on this end and I suppose that being so there may be something that can be, but still there is nothing that can make or unlock root and has permissions to all and leaves no access anything.

Primero para el amigo Alexdream...
Tengo el mismo problema, solo pude actualizar el teléfono utilizando un rom de AT&T para android 4.1.1 y luego lo actualicé a otro rom de AT&T Android 4.3...
Te cuento... Yo tenia un S3 I9300 que se le quemo la tarjeta madre... compre por mercadolibre un S3 I9300 con la pantalla rota, pues para reparar el mío...
Cuando cambio la tarjeta madre me doy cuenta de unas pequeñas diferencias en las tarjetas, a nivel de chips de memoria... no le preste mucha importancia...
cuando prendo el teléfono todo bien, le hago un reseteo de fabrica, para empezar a utilizarlo, y pensé que todo estaba bien hasta que le coloco mi línea de Movilnet...
NO SE REGISTRA EN LA RED... pensé que estaba bloqueado el imei por las operadoras, pero no... con DIGITEL si agarra señal pero no levanta 3G...
Empiezo a tratar de actualizar el ROM y me doy cuenta del detallazo de la tarjeta madre... en realidad es SGH-I747 la cual le pertenece a AT&T aunque la etiqueta dice I9300 y el IMEI si coincide...
La cosa es que no se que version ni que modelo de modem usa para conectarse con las bandas de Movilnet o Movistar.
Otra pregunta para ti: Tu teléfono levantaba LTE de Movistar? Lo decia en las especificaciones que era LTE?
En este momento solo lo puedo usar con Digitel.
Saludos

Now in English...
I have almost the same problem but a little bit harder...
In fact I swapped or shifted as you whish the logic board on my dead Samsung S3 I9300 for the logic board on a second hand broken screen one (same model in theory as said the sticker on the phone's back).
The phone woks fine at first trun on but when I do the Fabric Restore this phone only can be connect to Network on band 900 Mhz which is Digitel in Venezuela and only as GSM (2G) with EDGE data connection, as I know the SGH-I747 is capable to work with this bands: GSM Quad-band: 850/900/1800/1900MHz; UMTS Tri-band: 850/1900/2100MHz; LTE Dual-Band: Band 4/17
In Venezuela the networks operators work on this frequencies:
Bands 2G (GSM):
Digitel: 900Mhz
Movistar: 850Mhz
Movilnet: 850Mhz
Bands 3G - "AKA" - (WCDMA):
Digitel: 900Mhz
Movistar: 1900Mhz
Movilnet: 1900Mhz
Bandas 4G - "AKA" - (LTE):
Digitel 4G: Band 3 LTE 1800MHz.
Movistar 4G+: Band 4 LTE 1700/2100MHz ( 1700MHz for upload y 2100MHzfor download)
Movilnet: Band 4 LTE 1700/2100MHz ( 1700MHz for upload y 2100MHzfor download)
To make the long story short... the new logic board have just the same case of Alexdream, after hitting my head on the wall several times I realized that this board belongs to AT&T model SGH-I747 and not to the I9300 as the sticker said, so I do a ROM flash to the stock AT&T Rom I747UCDLK3 (Android 4.1.1) with the same network connection error, and them to AT&T stock Rom I747UCUEMJBfor Android 4.3 same problem too...
Any suggestions to solve this problem?

hey there did u solve your problem. i replaced my board because i bricked and phone board totally dead by rooting and recovery for i9300. now new board says its i747 inside the board (i mean on the board itself) but in about device it says i9300 and in the download mode it says SGH-T999V. i dont know about it but it was rooted with recovery installed (CWM 6). now which roms should i be looking for.

If it says t999 in download, flash t999 roms.

[Q] Activate LTE 4g in D858HK

Hi all.
I'm just wondering about changing base band to my LG G3 D858HK (Double Sim) can enable use LTE in Mexico.
I read about the network of Telcel uses the BAND LTE 4 (as ATT in USA) and I cannot configure to use it so actually in the stock rom with the stock baseband can only use 3G.
Is it possible? What baseband should be used? From what country?
Thanks in the advance.

Que tal, justamente he estado tratando de ver era es posible cambiar la banda base para que soporte LTE de Telcel.
Lo que logre investigar es que no hay forma de habilitar LTE simplemente porque es una limitante fisica del modem y no de software
Nuestro equipo solo soporta las siguientes bandas de LTE
1) FD-LTE : 2100(B1) / 1800(B3) / 2600(B7) MHz;
2) TD-LTE : 2600(B38) / 1900(B39) / 2300(B40) MHz
Mientras telcel usa la banda BC4 que se compone de 1700MHz y 2100MHz.
Asi que lamentablemente no lo podemos cambiar
