3G on Telfort / KPN

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?

it wont work for 3g. att and t-mobile are on separate frequencies that the tilt wont pickup for tmobile's 3g network.
the tilt will only work in 2G.... EDGE and regular GPRS

My phone is not the Tilt it is an HTC branded TYTN II unlocked phone from HTC Hong Kong that I have on T Mobile

what do you mean the tilt will only pick up 2G..att's tilt is a 3g phone..i have one, but i am on t-mobiles service..i had to unlock the phone to do this first...and i can switch back and forth between 3G and tmobiles edge with the diamond commmanger app....ii just cant use att's 3g because i have a tmobile sim in my phone

Doesn't work.. I'm using TyTN II for NYC T-Mobile.. no 3G

It doesn't work because it uses different FREQUENCIES.
Look at it this way:
You want to call your friend, he has an htc touch. Let's call him, Lenny.
Then you change your mind, and you want to call your other friend, who also has an htc touch. Her name is Michelle.
If you dial Lenny's phone number, you won't get Michelle just because she has the same phone.
ATT 3g and T-mobile 3g are the same TYPE of network, but they use different frequencies. Just like Lenny and Michelle have the same phone, but different phone numbers.
Make sense now?
The TYTN II and it's Variants were not designed to operate on the frequency that T-mobile 3g operates on.

lets break this down a bit better for him so that he may undertand your post.
"it wont work for 3g. "(That is a period for a very short sentence, and he meams )
It won't work on tmobile 3g.
"att and t-mobile are on separate frequencies that the tilt wont pickup for tmobile's 3g network."
This one is more straight forward now that you have a better version of the first sentence.
It should go something like this
It won't work on the Tmobile 3g because att and and tmobiles frequencies for 3g are totally different from each other and the tilt doesn't support the tmobile one (as you know it supports the att one), BUT it does support edge and gprs..

Can the radio in the TYTN be changed to the new T Mobile frequency.whats there now is 1900/2100 and needs to be 1700/2100.

Cant get edge On Diamond only GPRS in US

Hey guys Just picked up the Diamond
I cant seem to get the E icon only G. which I believe is for GPRS. I know At&t 3g wont work but i thought @ least edge would
I tried the stock rom and the elite Rom still same issue
I have manually input the media net settings
wap.cingular
[email protected]
CINGULAR1
the isp.cingular setting wont work for me
Im located in 21117 zip if that helps & my blackjack gets a 3g signal and my Iphone gets the Edge signal from same location
GPRS is hella slow DSL reports have me @ 39kbit/sec please help!

Are you sure EDGE is running the 1900Mhz frequency in that area? Your other phones may be locking onto 850Mhz which may support Edge, but 1900 may not.

ATT Tilt & 3G

I have this ATT Tilt. And I have moved to Cyprus this summer but i can not get the 3G work on this other network. The GPRS works but it works so slow. I can connect to 3G network with the new sim card here in Cyprus but it does not work as 3G but like normal GPRS speed.
Is there something done on HTC Kaiser when sold in US for ATT which I need to revert back to factory settings so I can utilize 3G here as well. I mean it works perfectly when I go back to US every month.

No 3G, HSDPA, or EDGE reception..only GPRS?

Hi guys as the title says I never receive any 3G, HSDPA, or EDGE connection on my O2 XDA Ignito...only thing I connect with is GPRS/GSM (i.e. the G icon shows in the taskbar)
I know I've turned off HSDPA connection in the menu, but why do I never get any 3G or EDGE connections?? I'm on the Orange UK and T-Mobile UK network...tried both and none give me anything except GPRS.
Anyone know what the issue might be? Could it be a hardware problem or is it more likely to do with the settings?
Cheers

have you considered the fact you dont live in a 3G area lol

lol yes but its not just my area...you can't be telling me I don't get any 3G throughout london city...?? I've also checked the orange and t-mobile website and they do have coverage in my area.

isnt it turned off?
Get navdavi commmanager and you can turn 3g on / off with it.
I think there is an option in settings somewhere too.
Turning off 3g turns off Edge/HSDPA too.
