I was in a telstra shop today and asked about the WM6 ROM for telstra. The salesman metioned that there had been a few bugs but 2-3 weeks was the current expection.
That's good to hear. At the moment i have a Dopod c730 and Telstra Tre 750 (with the new WM6 voda rom) on it and neither of them can get 3G/HSDPA...only Edge connections. After 3 calls to Telstra they said 1) Dopods aren't supported because we dont sell them and 2) Windows Mobile 6 updates arent supported at all...
I just wish Optus' 3G rollout would speed up!!!!!!!!!!
ha how funny, i have it no problems at all...do you have a next g sim card?!?!?
@aussienick
I too have a Treo750 Telstra but now after the WM6 upgrade is now branded Vodafone.. I can get both 3G and H (which I am assumiing stands for HSDPA) and it automatically switches to H when I am using the internet/data and goes back to 3G.. I use a Voda SIM on this phone..
This sucks
Well this sucks..My Treo with WM5 was working great with the #G speed from telstra, then when updating to AT&T rom it went to edge and now with the Voda rom from Palm UK it only allows me Edge too...
I've had the same problem actually. I started with 3G working find, then went to WM6 ATT rom, then to UK vodafone. Still no 3G just edge.....this doesn't look good. Perhaps we need to go back to the original telstra rom??? Anyone got it?
i've never had a problem. my original rom was the vodafone because i purchased my Treo 750v from overseas. worked great on Three's 3G network although i had to find the modem settings through whirlpool.net
i've upgraded to the ATT WM6 Rom and it was even better... now with HSDPA! everything was pre configured so i didn't have to do anything even!
and after Vanilla-ing the Rom nothing's changed. i get HSDPA when possible. i only get Edge when i'm deep inside a building but i have forced my phone to lock onto an UTMS band only
Could this be the reason,
The AT&T Rom only allows
GSM(900 + 1800 + UMTS 2100
or
GSM(1900 + 850) + UMTS (1900 + 850)
Telstra are using:
GSM 900 / 1800
UMTS 850 (NextG) / 2100 (shared with Three)

If that's the case, then what options are shown in the Telstra ROM or the Vodafone ROM for band selection?
I don't remember, maybe someone here has an old WM5 build, and can tell us.
I remember having 4 options on WM5 and now only have 2 with WM6.
Currently on WM6 I only have:
GSM (900+1800) + UMTS 2100
GSM (1900+850) + UMTS (1900+850)
On the old WM5 I have both above plus 2 more, 1 i think only had GSM and the other I think was GSM + UMTS (2100, 1900, 850)..
Sorry could not properly remember..

Make sure you have a 3G or nextg sim, I just called into a telstra seller, and they gave me a new sim (no charge) for nextg.
Telstra have now replaced it, and it work fast. 3G normal and U for internet. 550
I thought it work OK with WM5, but maybe I was wrong??
Now internet/email is real fast, on WM6
I have an Treo 750-1.16-RWE, upgraded with 3 rom vanilla.
Treo 750 WM6 For Aussie World
Hey any of you fellow Aussie Landers used a WM6 upgrade then used PoP3 via telstra data plan on telstra 3g sim
Not keep to screw up my wife's new 750.
Spoke to Palm and they were not as sure at this 3-4 weeks window?
Spoke to head of Mobile Telstra and he confirmed problems may delay til <gulp> next year.
Either way loss of Telstra branding crap on my phone isn't an issue if it still allows her pop3..
FYI PoP3 is not Big Poo or Telstra .
Thanks in advance folks
come on telstra!!!
Telstra ROM anyone?
Does anyone have a Telstra ROM for the Treo 750, WM5 or maybe WM6 ?
What would be the best ROM to use for Telstra connectivity?

Hi,
I got a Dopod 595 from Taiwan with updated firmware
ROM 1.15.709.3
Radio 1.06.00.10
Service Pack 3.709.1.7
http://www.dopodasia.com/Dopod/Singapore/En/Products/SmartPhone/595/spec.htm
From the spec, it says it is HSDPA, Edge enabled. However, the Cingular store here in San Jose, CA says otherwise. That's why I can't get on the Cingular 3G network or Edge. I can only get on internet via GPRS.
Is that true, if not, can someone please let me know how can I get on Cingular's 3G network ?
Thank you
Alan
Hi.
I have a HTC Diamond with the last ROMs (Panosha and SwiftBL 6.0 full) an 0.5 radio. I bought a 3G Chip to Entel, Movistar and Claro, but my experience with all of them was unhappy.
Entel and Claro only show EDGE in connections. Movistar shows the tuple EDGE, 3G.
All of them show an E in top bar. Never show 3G o H. I tried all options in Telephone --> band. The results are the same.
My question is :
The HTC Diamond recognize the 3g band in Chile? How I can configure it?
Thanks in advance.
Same but Panosha 1.7 and .08 radio.
Entel. No 3G only EDGE. Edge is enough for email, googlemaps, rss and casual surfing. But I wouldent mind having 3G (obviously).
So you say Movistar 3G works on Diamond?
Thanks bye.
COLOMBIA!!!!
HEY i am from colombia and i am planning to buy the same gadget (HTC DIAMOND), but i think i won´t be able to download data trough 3g because here MOVISTAR use 850 band, and the htc diamond don´t, so i want to know the same, if there is some ROM or RADIO or UPDATE or something that would let me transfer data in 3G (850) band.
Hi Sergio.
I don't know if Movistar works in 3G. In my Diamond the connection icon in the top bar shows EDGE,3G when i tap over it. but the icon is an E ¿?
We have and Iphone 3G and Nokias 3G and the same chip shows 3G ¿? Not all the time, only short times.
Is the diamond a real 3G device in Chile??????

850mhz GSM bands yes.. but not 3G 850mhz bands..
I bought my HTC Diamond on UK. I updated the ROM to the RUU_Diamond_HTC_HK_WWE_1.93.831.1 this was supposed to make my phone QuadBand. It does work in USA (Boston) where I live. But I have never seen my phone doing 3G and speed test top was around the 1xx kbps.
Any Ideas?
PS. I am on the ATT network
Are you sure you have 3G coverage in Boston? Do you have a USIM-card (which I was told to be required for UMTS stuff)?
3G speed
I did look at the ATT coverage map and it said that I do have coverage.
How do I know what type of SIM I have? The SIM does have the 3G logo on it.
Are you sure your phone has the bands?
Check the Band setting, Settings->Phone->Band,
in the dropdown box for "Select your GSM/UMTS band", my US 3G ATT phone shows the following options:
Auto
UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)
(oddly enough, the settings have to be on Auto for the phone to work..)
When I bought my diamond, I was curious about my sim too, so I took it into the ATT store and asked if it was the "latest 3G sim" and he said yes. Mine is half white (top) & half Blue (bottom), with a orange 3G fireball in the topright corner.
If yours matches all that, then take it to the ATT store and see if you get 3G in the store
Also..if you have doubts, I've had multiple Sales reps in the store tell me I can get a new Sim for free at any time, just need to ask.
3G
I do have that SIM half blue half white with the 3G fireball logo.
On my select network I have
Auto
GSM
WCDMA
on the GSM/UMTS band I have
Auto
UMTS(900+2100)+GSM(900+1800)
UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)
UMTS(800+2100)
UMTS(850+2100)+GSM(900+1800)
UMTS(850)+GSM(900+1800)
UMTS(1700)

What ROM do you have?
RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2
RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2
Does this ROM supports USA 3G????
Sorry for my English
You have the European version and have only HSDPA 2100 / 900 (3G) and probably ATT works in HSDPA 850 / 1900, if this is the problem, sorry 3G is impossible for you, because is a hard problem, not a soft problem, search in this web there are many post about this. The European is quad band in GSM but not in HSDPA (3G)
CArlos
How about if I use another ROM
If I use another ROM ? would I be able to do 3G?
No I think it's impossible since it's different hardware I believe.
I think the one you have from UK, it only contained HSPA 2100 and US /Canada is using HSPA 850/1900, that's why you don't have the 3G signal.
Quad band only for voice and EDGE.

Hey gusy I just got my Aussie HD with 3G on 850mhz but I think I crapped it up. I did a hard spl then went to a custom rom and now I have no 3g when I did before. Can anyone please point me in the right direction.
Thanks,

it would help if you tell us what custom ROM you used AND if that ROM included a Radio. if it didn't include a radio, you should be ok... also, can you get an internet connection? did try going into Phone->Menu->Options->Band Tab->and select WCDMA for GSM and the 850/1900 UMTS band -> click OK and then see if you get a signal? these answers may help us solve your issue.
OK so I found the telstra rom and what back to it. Still could not get 3G. But with that rom I did at least have the 850mhz as an option under settings, phone, band. I was for sure that Houston had the 850mhz but I could be wrong. So now I am on Rom version: 1:19:831:0 (25581) Radio 1.10.25.25. Let me try changing those settings like you suggested. Is your reception good up there in Dallas?
my reception in dallas depends on my location... at home i usually get a solid EDGE signal. i'll get a stronger 3G signal if i go outside. conversely, here in KC, i have a solid 3G signal everywhere i go. so what ROM did you flash to your phone? and did you flash a Radio ROM as well?

Not every area in the US is covered by the 3G 850mhz bandwidth by at&t. I wish the online retailers would put. May work in North America. I'm sure if you traveled around the state a bit you would find that your phone gets 3G in some areas.
I also have the option to select 850 and 1900 GSM & 3G in the settings.

May I ask what rom & radio you are using? The original Telstra rom & radio show under settings, phone, options, bands the 850 spectrum and a bunch of different combinations. I hate the tf3d on the telstra rom because it is loaded with all of there carrier stuff but I want 3G. It seems that when I change roms even if I keep the same original radio I lose all those band spectrums under settings, phone, options, bands. What would you suggest?

Well right now I went bacl to the telstra rom & radio because I seem to lose bands if I change rom even keeping radio the same. May I ask what rom & radio you are running?
i'm running Dutty's 2.1 ROM with the new Manila. i had the same thing happen to me: one minute the Band Tab (under phone settings) are there and the next they're gone. there are 2 fixes i use when this happens: (a) simply soft-reset and they appear or (b) use a registry editor to goto HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting and then change the setting for ShowUMTSBandPage to 1. Sometimes i have to change the other Show****Page seetings as well. right now, my device is set to Auto for BandType and Network Type and i'm getting the H symbol everywhere i go in Kansas City. i know that once i get back to Dallas, the same settings will cause my signal to vasolate between H and E depending on where i am, e.g., at home it will likely be E. if you didn't flash a different radio, you should be ok. like AllTheWay said, you're probably not in an area with a strong 850 3G signal.

Hey guys, I am considering getting the telstra version HD soon, I was just wondering what do I need to do to set up the phone for ATT, or is it good to go out of the box?
Also will all the phone features function normally with ATT? Thanks for any input.
Also wondering if i have read this thread correctly, as long as I do not change the radio and only upgrade the ROM after HardSpl, then I should keep the 850mhz 3g?
Same here I have a european version of HD. What do I need to install to get the 850 3G on ATT ? please advice

you need another phone, a.k.a., the Telstra Touch HD. you will not be able to get 850 3G with the UK version of the Touch HD.
the telstra hd (T8285) is good to go on AT&T and Tmobile in the US....
straight out of the box...
another question i have is that i have the EURO HD. (t8282)..
in the BAND TAB (under phone settings) i have the options
UMTS (850 +1900) +GSM (850+1900)
does this mean that my phone will get 3g on an 850 MHZ network?
like AT&T or telstra in australia?
cheers

Hello all, sorry if this Thread was post on forum but i can't find it. So my problem of my kaiser is i Upgrade Official HTC ROM WM 6.1 ESP and my TyN II is Unblocket and i can get company Cell Phone Digitel TIM Venezulan but wen Network is Searching Get for 5 Sec. 3G and back to GSM normal i mean show icon E.
I checking other phone is HTC Touch and 3G work fine. can any one tell me is my Kaiser can get 3G?
Configuration all is Fine APN, HSPDA are on, GPRS Authentication PAP
PS. Digitel TIM don't have HTC TyN II (Kaiser) Product List.
Sorry my english sux :S
Should be able to get 3G as long as you have a TyTN II with the right bands... I think South America uses 850 and 1900, which if your TyTN II originated in Europe, it probably doesn't have the 850 band, which is the primary band for 3G, where as 1900 is usually used for voice over GSM and EDGE data.
