Hi,
I have my D810 upgraded to the new HK D810 GPS Enabled Rom
(Rom 1.23.708.4, Radio 1.38.00.11)
and since then my 3G is not working quite right, I can get full bar of 3G, but I just couldn't make a call or recieve any call. And I'm on the Cingular network in the US.
Before I upgrade the rom, I can access the 3G with no problem. Now I can make a call only if I force my D810 to stay on the GSM network (2G).
Can somebody help? Or should I downgrade my rom back to the original dopod D810 rom? If yes, where can I find it?
Thanks.
Try using HTC tweaker to turn off HSDPA, that did the trick for me
Does it mean I can never use HSDPA on my D810 ?
ok, I've disable HSDPA, but it still can't make any call on 3G.....
man... now I hate the new rom... I rather don't have GPS but have my phone working...
have you have checked Start-->Settings-->Phone-->Band Tab--> and ensure that the Network Type is "Auto" or "WCDMA" and NOT GSM? and also ensure that the GSM/UMTS band is set correctly? (now, I'm really nervous about using that ROM!!!)
i have all the Band and Network setting right...
some people from the other forum say it is the network issue from Cingular because they are having the same issue, but on other phones.
it is quite weird, i can make a call under 3G in certain area within Chicago, but anywhere near my work office, it won't work...
And as usual, the cingular cs are useless, they don't even know what is going on
hy, sory for my bad english

Hmmm, it worked on mine. HTweakC did give an error message when I first started the program because my phone is a Trinity and not a Hermes. I just ignored that message. Then after turning off the HSDPA, I exited the program and did a soft reset by pressing the power button for 3 seconds, this way you make sure the change gets saved.
Excuse my ignorance: why would you want to turn HSPDA *off*? To save battery power?

When HSDPA is on, you can't receive a phone call, it goes to voicemail. There is no problem receiving a call in 3G or GSM Edge mode. I don't know if it is a problem with current systems or if that is the way it was intended to work, but I don't want to miss calls because my phone is receiving an email.

Huh? Is that a local thing?
Here in The Netherlands it is no problem at all. When I'm connected to UMTS or HSDPA (on the Vodafone network) I can be connected simulatinously.
So, I receive pushmail when I am on the phone or when I'm surfing I can be called at the same time.
adodesign and Matterhorn: that must be something to do with your provider. I am on T-mobile in the UK and I have no such issue. In fact I just tested it about 10 times in my house where there is a good HSPDA signal. I started downloading a large file at about 850 kbps and phoned myself - my Hermes dropped from "H" to "3G" and the call came through no problem. Once I hung up, it stepped back up to "H" and the download was not interrupted.
ok... i'm in the US using Cingular and i know they have HSDPA enabled in some markets. i have a HTC P3600 and would like to know how i can tell if HSDPA is enabled. if HSDPA enabled by default how would i know? if i have to manually enable it, what are the steps to activate it? thanks for the advice/guidance...

Well I guess it must be something to do with certain providers. I'm not the only one that has reported the busy problem with HSDPA. I'm going to test it again when I go into France to see if it happens there.
3G framework designed to able receive call while data transmitting. Whenever there is incoming calls, it will automatically disconnect data tranmission. However, this feature needs to be fully support by your local carrier.
In 2G network, you will not be able to answer call while data tranmitting. But you will still be able to answer call if GPRS is connected, with no data tranmisting. This is by 2G design, nothing to do with the carrier.
Hope this helps

Its a network issue.
I remeber reading on 3's Website here that it was an issue and a software Update on their network here in aust in April will fix it.
Speak to your provider and see if they are planning a network update soon.

Thanks for that news, I'll give them a call today . I think that it is likely that I'm not even supposed to be receiving HSDPA on this network. Before this phone was released it was reserved for one of those PC card wirless solutions for laptops, which they charge a fortune to use. The roms that come on the Swisscom Trinity has HSDPA disabled. They'll probably tell me that I'm not supposed to use it .
just few words to say that on the SFR network (france) , when i am connected in HSDPA , i can't receive any calls ... they are rediricted to my voicemail

Thanks for that info. I won't bother to check on SFR now. I'll just leave HSDPA switched off for the time being. 3G is good enough for now. This is an app that will turn off HSDPA http://www.fit4cat.de/thread.php?threadid=263 .
There is an application made for the Hermes that I am successfully using on my Trinity that switches 3G on and off. It also will switch off your data at night to save battery life. It creates an icon at the bottom of the screen for quick network change when you want a fast connection. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=35394&d=1173876750 .

EDIT : i've just call my provider ,this behaviour is normal , an upgrade from them is necessary to make calls during hsdpa connection , thanx to tdub !

I have the problem, with HSDPA, on Sfr network, i've got a 3G plan, for access to wap! is impossible, but In Web all is allright, with very Hi speed i ever see on mobile
Is it really HSDPA?
I recently flashed my Orange UK Trinity (SPV M700):
WM6.1.Black Edition by Akeo
Radio Radio 1.50.08.11
For the first time I noted that HSDPA was available and then shortly after that I was missing a lot of call's. 3 out of 5 seem calls to go straight to answer phone. My concern is that this seems to happen mainly with calls from mobiles on the same network (Orange UK) and yet rarely (if at all) with calls from land lines. Is this perhaps a red herring?.
After reading this thread I'm hoping that HSDPA is the cause of the issue and that someone can explain how to disable HSDPA on the Trinity device?
I tried HTweakC 2.1b but no luck. HSDPA remained active.
Hi all,
Did anyone get 3G (HSDPA / UMTS should be both supported on these networks!) to work on the Telfort / KPN (Dutch) network?
It seems with the default network settings it does not pick up 3G, only GPRS / EDGE?
Regards,
Nika.
I've got no problem using both 3g and HSDPA. The connection is called GPRS though, maybe that's the confusing part. When using them, there are symbols 3G and H in the top of the screen. Good luck
I am sure you know this, but nevertheless: if you do not take out a data subscription, KPN/Telfort have disabled UMTS; you will then ONLY get gprs.

You also need to request a new UMTS enabled simcard.
check you rom version, if it does not depend on your provider
So far 3G for works for me only with Radio rom at least 1.27.12.17 and OS >= 1.56.406.5.
Have run Radio rom 1.27.12.11 for a long time and no 3G connection @ all regardless of data or voice.
With radio 1.27.12.17 some calls on 3G were possible, but still more outages then connections.
Now I tried the french OS (1.56.406.5) together with radio 1.27.12.11 and for 4 hours 3G is stable. This is not very mature, but it is a tendency that it is not the radio rom only that trobles the 3G connections.
@all: Thanks for the tips, yes, UMTS/HSDPA needed to be enabled (remotely) on the SIM (even though I had enabled Max Online on my subscription).
@dauphinas365: Does this unstable 3G connection mean that you are unreachable when 3G is connected (which is the case on my Kaiser)?
How can I check what kind of connection (GPRS / UMTS) has been setup?
Mobile: Tytn II (Kaiser)
Provider: Telfort + Surf&Mail
3G connect with KPN on my phone.
And gsm connect wiht Telfort on my phone.
So i have:
3G KPN NL TELFORT NL. :S

Yeah, same here. But officially you should be able to be called during 3G, but in my case the caller gets a busy tone...
Can someone reach you when you're on 3G?

If someone does'nt hava a 3g pone ang 3g sim card in it you won't be able to have video call each other. It like youi would like to speak with chinese guy but you don't speek chinese
I'm having problems video calling myself. I do have a 3G simcard. T mobile is my network provider. Yet whenever I click on contacts, I see no option for me to video call. I've tried following the manual, but to no avail. Can someone help?
MAKE SURE YOUR SIM IS ACTIVATED FOR THIS SERVICE.If You Dial The Number Using Keypad,youll See A Camera Emblem .touch That And It Should Work...accourding To My Manual
What do you mean when you say 'if you dial the number'? Do you mean your mobile/cell number?
I've done this yet nothing changes and I am in a 3G/ HSPDA area. When I was on T mobile with my Vario II, I had no problem video calling. But then I exchange my phone for an upgade to the Vario III with T mobile, and video calling doesn't work.
Even my manual suggests that the phone is enabled in this way.
the number you want to call too.using keypad instead of from contacts.either way should work though
On Tmobile UK, you cannot send or receive video calls on a PAYG SIM. The limitation is by the network not individual phone settings.
I'm going to France with my VZW DE, unlocked and rooted.
Can I buy a French sim card (do they have nano cards??) and it will just work?
Or do I need to do some APN magic?

You can get nano sim in France and it will work with Verizon. They'll either have original nano or they'll cut it for you. You won't have LTE though cause Verizon supports only 750MHz LTE. But that isn't big disadvantage as 3G is really fast and widely accessible.
APN is usualy set automatically, depending of chosen mobile provider. I assume that you want to use mobile data too, therefore I recommend either Lets Go Data Sim of Orange France if you can get along only with data plan or LeFrench Mobile packet with Transatel group Sim if you want to have full option (talking, sms, data). Lets Go Sim is available in Orange Boutiques throughout France, just ask for the 'Pass Prepaye Let's Go SIM'. You'll pay €10 (about $14) for 1GB lasts 7 days and you can get topup vouchers in the same shops. Manual setting - APN: orange, username: orange and password: orange. For Lefrench mobile you can find full instruction in English at: http://www.lefrenchmobile.com/en/data-bundles.html.
In order to save on calling to the USA you may want to set voip on your phone. You have broad specter of providers as Skype, maybe Hangouts or others which operates with preset SIP on your phone.

I thought I could find nano sims, after all Moto X is sold in France.
My phone is a Verizon Wireless CDMA phone, though it does include some UMTS bands:
850/900/1900/2100 . The LTE bands are 4/13, which I don't believe are used in Europe, as piskr said.
The real question is about the APN. Right now the APN is set for VZWINTERNET. If I insert an Orange sim card, will the phone automatically change to the Orange APN? If not, how do I add the Orange APN? piskr gave the Orange APN settings, but how do I add them ?
I now use CSipSimple and Zoiper ( iax works great over mobile ), so I'll get the Orange Pass Prepaye Let's Go SIM. $14-15 for 1gig over 7 days is a real bargain, especially if the 3G is fast enough for voip.
The only problem with a data only plan is the inability to text.
Thanks for all the help.

UMTS frequencies used in Europe are: 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 MHz and they are perfect match with your phone so you are set. And don't worry, Europe put a lot into 3G development, you'll have mostly everywhere HSPA+ that means more than enough bandwith for voip. European LTE bands are with rare exceptions 3,20,3, therefore you won't have LTE but I'm certain that you won't miss it either. But remember: Orange Fr blocks voip so you may rather opt for another provider or enable VPN. You certainly can't have sms service with voip but on the other hand texting is cheap and if you can use voip calling you wouldn't depend much on sms.
Regarding manual APN settings there is no hassle with that. You can add or remove right away any APN you wish: go to settings - mobile networks - APN (and save it). I use 3 different as you can see from attached picture. In rare occasion that your provider blocks other APNs you'll have the chance to set it as soon as you change SIM. If it won't be set automatically.

Do you have the Verizon Wireless Developers Edition - XT1060? I 've got developer options on. My APN screen (Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Acces Point Names ) shows only the VZW APN. The Menu on the upper right has only one choice: Reset to default. If I choose that, I get 9 APN's - All VZW.
A Long Press on the VZW entry, allows editing.
I don't see any option to add an APN.

Just had a long talk with L2 Motorola support. There should be a add button ( a + enclosed in a circle ) on the top right of the APN screen. There isn't on my APN screen. The suggestion was that it was deleted with 4.4.2.
Sigh

It wasn't deleted. Possibility to add APN is SIM card dependent. Inserting the different SIM card will enable option to add APN. I'm on 4.4.2 and able to add as many APN's as I wish.
