Diamond with 3 UK network - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I would like to use Diamond with pay as you go 3 UK SIM card but i don't know how to configure HSDPA connection. Any one can help me to configure connection? Thanks

does your sim actually work in the phone? do u get a signal?
you have to call 3 to config this, but they are useless
as far as i was aware, although this is a 3g phone, it carries no usim function therefore 3 sims wont work, maybe im wrong tho - very interested to know if your sim works in the phone.............

got my diamond from orange and am now happily using it on the three network with no problems at all. Simply clear storage on diamond put in the three sim card, mine was locked however use it with an isim and its fine. The device then sets itself up for h3g and downloaded all the settings for me. Didnt have to do diddly squat. Now have 3g web on hspda, mms, my 3, the three today page etc etc. Works brilliantly over the network been on utube etc.

Configure 3G/HSDPA

Hi,
This Kaiser is unlocked. When I insert my current t-mobile (NL) and turn-on, start the phone, will the 3G/HSDPA be configured directly?
If not, could anyone point me how to configure the 3G/HSDPA? Especially if you know the setting for t-mobile NL.
Honestly, I never have 3G/HSDPA phone, I use only GPRS with the HTC Magician.
Thanks for any help.
It should be configured automatically whenever you put in a new sim card, I'm sure T-Mobile NL will be one of the many supported networks.
Worked perfectly with my Vodafone UK sim, so unless you're with some little used operator out in the middle of nowhere, I don't think you'll have any problem.
Yep. can confirm this. Recognised my (7 or 8 years) old belgian Proximus SIM and configured all settings correctly.

Tilt's GPRS won't connect in other country

Hey guys
I have a problem here
Last month I bought an ATT Tilt and unlocked the sim that I can use it internationally
the sim unlock does its job, however, I can't seem to use the GPRS in other country even though I've set it up correctly (even had representative from the provider to help me)
so..can anyone help me with this ?
thanks
used my kaiser in Ukraine on GPRS
I just got back from Germany and Ukraine. My AT&T sim roamed on 3g fine in Germany. In Ukraine I put in a kyivstar sim. My HTC Kaiser did not recognize and auto configure the sim for data. (the phone worked just fine with no adjustments). I went to the kyivstar website and got their settings for GPRS (www.ab.kyivstar.com) and entered them manually in settings/connections/connections section. GPRS then worked just fine. I was surprised Kyivstar did not auto config since they have been the largest provider in Ukraine for 10 years. When I came back to the states my AT&T sim card powered up and reconfigured itself to 3g just fine also. Sorry but I do not know why yours is not working
i have the same problem with you , i bought att tilt from ebay a month ago. The sim lock works still but after a month i can not connect gprs. Can someone help me ?
same problem......
HELP !
Hi guys. Many Tmobile users encounter the same thing when using the Tilt. Locate the cab file in your Windows folder that Disables Hidden Proxy and run it. Then confirm your GPRS settings for your provider. That should clear the problem and allow connections.
did you try deleting the proxy in the registry?
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings]
look for the line that says
"EnableAutoDetect"
and delete it.
didnt work for me... but try!

Kaiser : When 3G icon appears ATT Service is lost...

I am on the old $39.99 ATT plan the one that does not have 3G and my with an old “blue” SIM card. I have been using Sony S710a for the past two years which in fact worked fine. A week ago I have obtained ATT Tilt (HTC 8925), unlocked it so that it would read my card and started using it.
Here is the problem that I can’t solve>
Sometimes my phone loses service, completely, and I cannot reconnect to ATT Service. I have tried to find a pattern but so far I am clueless of what might be causing it.
According to my observation:
1. It has been happening in certain neighborhoods.
2. When I do find service and connect to it shows E and then switches to 3G
3. When my phone starts to show 3G it loses connection.
This phenomenon happens only from time to time. Other times I have 3G icon and everythign is fine. I have tried T-mobile card in it and there is no problem. It connects to T-mobile service and has all bars. Thereafter I have put my card into an unlocked Nokia 6300 and my ATT connection works fine. The only thing I can blame is 3G.
Please if anyone knows what this, why its happening and how I can avoid this issue let me know. Thank you.
it looks like I have got a solution...
Im not sure yet, but so far I have installed an application that supposed to keep me away from [3G]. The application that I have installed is Bandswitch. So far it only shows [E] . I have to travel to those areas where I had no service to be sure that this program works. Ill keep you updated on this issue.
go get a new sim card. ATT and Cingular towers were different so some older sim cards have trouble connecting to some towers. its only something like 15 bucks.
when i went to the ATT storeto get my tilt, even though i already had a 64k sim they still upgraded the sim (for free seince i was about to pay 400 bucks).
Its your sim card
The old sim cards don't have enough memory. Get a new one with the 3g logo on it. You should probably upgrade your service too. Or you'll get a big surprise when your bill comes.
I have the same problem here in germany with the O2 3G Network... My phone has a GPRS Connection and when the 3G Icon appears there is a total loss of connection for like 10 seconds and its back to GPRS again... End of the story (like i assumed and wrote to O2 ;P) my SIM Card is too old, new one on the way Should work for you as well, like all the other posters before me claimed
Edit: Oh and it didn't cost me one buck, all inclusive service because i didn't lose or broke my SIM Card. When it is too old to be able to allow you to use your full contract properties, i guess they pretty much have to send you a new new SIM card for free. At least here it works this way
Thank you...
The problem is that I dont have a contract and the only way for them to upgrade my sim to 3G is when i sign up. Curently I have 1000 min, nights and weekends from 7pm, free mobile to mobile, free long distance and free incoming SMS. Its highly unlikely that any one of you would give that up and pay more money for less minutes and less services. Right? Thank you. at this point i think im fine with what I have got, in addition to not needing 3G at all. by the way, i think that this program Bandswitch is doing a good job keeping me of 3G. Thank you.

I never had to 'upgrade' my sim to 3G, nor sign a new contract. I just took my old GSM SE phone in to ask about service, and they asked if I would like a sim swap to the latest.. Sure, done.
Now works fine with the Kaiser, and never did any form of 3G 'upgrade'.

Were you part of the old ATT Blue network? Cingular actually started giving out 3g cards in early 2006 in my area. I got one with my 8125 where they FIRST came out. So it's possible if you've gotten a phone since then and now that your card is already 3g...

You're right, I think it may be important to be on the 'orange network' because 3G never existed for the old at&t wireless 'blue'.
I was always part Cingular, and did go through the free-sim upgrade, but got another one when I just walked in after that.
Well I'm in malaysia, Using Maxis 3G network. I also having problem same symptoms like you guys. What do i realize sometime it give my device freeze for sometime. But the freeze just like for few second. And what do i realize when 3G appear our phone signal become weak. From full bar drop to 2 or 1 bar.
Did u guys having this issue too?
My simcard is 128k if im not mistake.
See this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335074
Most likely the same problem. RMA ahead.
Try this on your phone settings (dialer --> menu --> options) on the network tab is network selection set to automatic? i was experimenting with my phone to see if i could get a better signal and set it to manual and choose my network but when im no a 3G connection its called 3G T-mobile and when not its just called T-mobile and on the manual list its just called T-Mobile so each time i got a 3G connection it would lose signal completely and start searching for i think T-mobile not 3G T-mobile the moment i set it back to Auto and soft-reset it worked fine again.
my phone did this at first, and all i had to do was get a new SIM. they didn't charge me a dime for it at the att store, but if they ask just tell them your phone won't connect and that it's a problem with your SIM
I have the same problem and have a new phone on the way. I already have a 3G sim card.
When you call, they'll probably make you hard reset your phone. Just a heads up.

Can 3G DATA Work With Dual Sim Card Holder on Diamond? KW: Adapter, HSPDA, DualSim

Hi guys,
I got a voice plan on one sim and pure 3g HSDPA Data on the other sim and was thinking of getting it to work together on my Diamond.
The Sim Adapter I am looking at is found here
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250262371185
by the name of MagicSim
Well I was wondering if there are any tested and confirmed dual sim solutions that work on the Diamond, that allows switching between:
3G DATA GPRS via HSDPA
3G Voice Calls
Reason I asked is because I read that some adapters/holders do not work with 3G and this one supposedly "supports" 3G.
"Supports" is rather vauge because I can pop in a 3G sim under GSM mode and it is still supported.
Thanks!
Gerald
Anyone?
I would assume you would need a special soft to switch between the sims, and even more if you want to have different settings. In the best case you're looking at 3rd party apps. Unfortunately, I never had the need for double SIM, so I can't help with a specific suggestion.
Kinda dug out this last night but just wanted to confirm 3G GPRS works before buying the adapter
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302759
Hi there, I've got the same problem as you haha. Anyone can confirm this?
I'm very sure it'll work.. these DualSim connectors just switches the circuit to the active SIM card... doesn't really modify anything..
Well on the older versions in the past year didn't work with 3G so I just wanted to be sure in case I lose money on this
How are you ordering it btw?

Not necesarily! Most of them also have a sim toolkit menu to switch the sims. That means they intercept the data from the sim to the phone and simulate that menu. If you can't turn this off, and the dual sim itself can't understand 3G commands, it wont work.
You should ask the seller if it works with USIMS.

"Works on , both 2G and 3G (USIM)"
Switching through stk so it should be supported by the today plugin
I have the same problem. With my Trinity and my Orbirt I the same adapter works fine, but not with the Diamond.
they are selling a analog one here:

if anyone could test it... i'm still waiting for my diamond...

That´s my...no way!
I have an XDA Orbit 2 with that exact type of dualSIM and can categorically tell you that it works fine with 3G.
My personal SIM is O2 (3G) and work is Orange (GSM). To switch between the two, all you need to do is switch flight mode on, then flight mode off. It takes maybe 10s to change between the two networks.
Oh yeah I've had G,E,3G and H symbols on O2 so I take that to mean I have the ability to connect to all the data speeds.
Yes, it works fine with my Orbit 1, with my Orbit II and with my Trinity, but not with the Diamond!

NEED HELP! Kaiser unlocked but not working with all sim´s

Hi volks
I have unlocked my t-mobile mda Vario 3 (aka kaiser) and everything working fine, it work with all sims(f.e. A1, telering, ...) but not with "Hutchinson 3 Austria" it is an umts network and the kaiser should work whit it!
when i put in the 3 sim i can enter pin, device searching for network, but the kaiser will not connect to network, always searching for network. i live in Vienna, a big city, there should be enough signal strength *gg*
i also tried another 3 sim but will not work tried to change band settings and network settings but will not work. i also brought the kaiser to t-mobile and they send it to service, the service says that the device works fine and is unlocked
so anybody an idea?
i also have the same problem with my o2 sim card. it acquires a connection briefly then cuts out again and just keeps searching for a network
it happened to me too, i resolved the situation by inserting a piece of paper on the top of simcard, to make pressure because with time kaiser loses pressure needed to read the card...
