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

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?

Cant get 3G only symbol is E

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.

Kaiser Problem

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.

[Q] Is Diamond Have HSPA+??

Diamond works as a modem for Internet Aero2. What truth does not display the network name and does not have coverage, though not connected to the network. Once connected to your computer, you can use the Internet.

[Q] HTC One in Germany - is it possible to deactivate LTE AND 3G?

Hi,
I'm very interested to buy the One. At the moment I using a iPhone 5 with a german T-Mobile contract. It's not possible to switch off LTE and 3G to use only Edge (saves much battery!). I can disable LTE with a modded IPCC File but this also disables 3G - so I can only use Edge. This is a disappointing situation.
Do I have the free choice on the HTC One which speed I want to use? Only Edge for most of the time, 3G or LTE on demand while surfing on the internet?
Thanks for answering,
Regards
Sebastian

Hello
you can choose between only GSM, only WCDMA, GSM WCDMA automatic and GSM WCDMA LTE automatic on the One.

Thanks, hopefully the black One is available soon in retail Stores

No problems
I´ve read that the One ist on Media Markt available on the 15.04.2013 :cyclops:

Choosing "GSM" in the mobile network settings will force the phone to use either GPRS or EDGE if they're available.
