Hi Everyone, This is my first post here so I hope I get everything right.
My problem is I live in the US, I bought a EU model Diamond. I upgraded to the newest official HTC rom. I restored all the settings and had to manually enter the settings for t-zones And t-mobile web. I tried t-mobile web with my simcard that I've had for a while and all worked perfect. Since the phone is for my wife I popped her sim in but no go on t-zones or web. Wife went to T-mobile to get a replacement simcard and after everything activated still no go on either option. If I try her sim in my phone it works just fine with t-mobile web. I put my sim in her phone and all works great again, but not with hers. Any one have a similar problem or any Idea how to fix this problem?
You might need to reset the settings again with her SIM card.
You might also want to try these CABs which put all the settings together:

Thanks for the cabs tip fhsieh. Now with the 599 cab I can connect with opera browser and internet explorer but not with opera mini and the weather update can't connect either. I tried to install the 2999 cab but it keeps saying it was unsuccesful. I will read through the thread to see if I can find an answer. Maybe you already know the answer, once again thanks for your help.

Have just got an xda off ebay - like everbody does from the sound of it.
appears unlocked, and can surf the internet via my wireless at home. only problem is put my vodafone sim in and says cannot connect to network. There's an exclamation next to the signal icon. Does this mean i cannot connect at all?
Have trawled the forums for answers but geting confused by all the jargon. Can anybody post the network settings or cab files for payg vodafone. all the current links i have clicked on just appear as a .gif, not a downloadable file
Getting fed up now as apart from the phone part i love my new toy
It's sounding as though it is not actually unlocked. The fact you can surf via WiFi has nothing to do with the SIM, my Alpine works just fine without a SIM in for that purpose.
Try the unlocking tool here on XDA-Dev to redo the removal of the carrier lock. I seem to recall having more success with the earlier version.
working or not?
the programme says it is unlocked, but exclamation still comes up - i guess i have to put in all the gprs and wap ect settings for it to connect properly?
samsung27
yes thats normaly how one get gprs to work unless the correct setting are preset
cab file correct?
have just downloaded the cab file for vodafone settings - but it just seems to contain one xml file?
looks like registry settings but no change to phone.
have tried to hard reset - power and reset at bottom but always get the o2 splash screen and radio settings never the personal or corporate file bit where you put in the serial no. am i doing the all wrong???
the unlock screen came and said that it was unlocked but still no joy as to using it as a proper phone
Here's a CAB for the Vodafone UK GPRS settings, i am on the monthly SIM onky contract so they may not work if you are PAYG.
finally got my alpine working - stuck in a new sim and topped up. installed spb phone suite and keboard as could not get wisbat to work with 2003 version of os. just need to get some latest themes and apps to get sorted. thanks for everybodies help
samsung27
changed providers again
yes it did work with vodafone for about 2 days then battery went flat. charged it up - no setings will not work.
stuck an new o2 sim in it and signal works registered etc. will wait to see if it does it again. other wise will just use it as an app and music pda
If you drained the battery completly , you will alweys lose all the settings.
You must charge it before it is completly drained.
Hi, I recently activated web n walk for the UK the 5 pound package.
I was having problems connecting to gmail or any other service requiring https and synching with gmail exchange.
At first I thought something was wrong with T-mobile blocking ports as I could plug in a Vodafone sim card and everything worked fine. Putting t-mobile sim in another phone would exhibit the same problems of not being able to connect to gmail etc.
After speaking with t-mobile tech support I downloaded the official rom RUU_Kaiser_TMO_UK_3.31.110.3_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.70.18.02_Ship from the t-mobile website and everything worked 100%.
The problem seems to be the ROMS I was using including Shifu, TPC Elite Google Android etc. T-mobile are obviously checking something with my rom configuration or something but I am at a loss as to what it is. I would like to use the latest ROMs as the t-mobile one is crap.
Please can anyone shed some light on what I can try. Thanks
David

Hi David, I use t-mobile UK and i use many roms from this site with the vario 3 with no problems. T-mobile sim cards come with a content lock as standard. You may find you can't even use u-tube application. You should be able to remove this content lock via my t-mobile on their website. Customer services is useless there. That is why you are experiencing that problem even when you put the sim in another phone.
Hope this helps.
cheers
James
Hi James,
I have disabled content lock, and have checked as I can get to *cough* p0rn sites. The other point is that my internet works fully when I use the T-Mobile rom.
Could this be a radio issue?
David
Hi David on my vario 3 I use radio 1.70.19.09 with hard spl 3.34 and pdacorner ultimate-x.v8 and mine is fine.
The only issue I have with internet with the custom roms is that when connection setup has run. It puts in proxy server settings that cause issues. If you go to start,settings,connections and into t-mobile internet is there a proxy server ip address ticked. if so remove the tick and see if that helps.
cheers

Hi all,
I'm new to windows-base phone, there are two problems that I have with my TD2, and I don't seem to find the answers on the forum.
For some reasons, my TD2 has no problem of updating weather, but it cannot go online at all. I don't how to fix it. Recently, it pops up two windows constantly,
One says " Cannot Connect. Dialed: The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings."
Second one says: "There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in your registered home network."
I bought my phone in Hong Kong, and I just installed Hard-SPL to change the language back to English. Ever since I installed it, the phone keeps popping up those two windows. I have tried to re-installed it, it worked until yesterday. I also tried factory reset, it is still not working. I really don't what the problems are and how to fix them.
HELP, PLZ!!!!!!!
Thanks,
Avril
Just a thought: borrow a SIM on a different network from a friend and replace your SIM with it, and the phone should offer to import the new network settings.
Then put your SIM back and the phone should re-import your network settings again. It's just a stab in the dark really...
The other thought (which affects users in the UK on t-mobile) the phone imports a "proxy server" setting from the SIM which is wrong. You have to delete this in Settings/Connections before you can go online with Opera.
I tried your thought #1, but it didn't work. I don't live in UK. I'm USA, and using AT&T. Are there any other ways that I can do it?
Thanks,
Avril
Hello everyone.
I'm beat. I was up to silly o'clock this morning trying to get this thing working.
I purchased to unlocker from this site as I have no posts. I've tried many different roms and radios but I still get no service when I plonk in my o2 sim card.
I have a touch HD that was registered to the orange network that I bought off a friend of mine. I wanted it to work with o2 so I downloaded the unlocker program (paid for) and did all the updating and unlocking that entails.
I then tried a few different roms (even tried win 6.5 but my battrey was getting drained at a silly rate)
The problem I have is that whichever radio I get it's not working with my O2 sim card. I have the little G symbol but it keeps asking for data connection setting and the phone is showing no service. I have even tried radios from other phones with no luck. I'm on the offical htc 1,56,401,0 (43972) WEE rom at the moment and the 1.12.25.16 radio and I'm also getting the greenscreen at the load up but a quick on off fixes that.
I searched the forums but still no joy.
What do I have to do?
Please, you are my only hope.
Thanks in advance.
Do you have the right SPL? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431217)
I used to be Orange, had it unlocked, and am now on o2 with no problems. I use 1.17 radio but I don't think that's the issue
Tried it just now.
Thanks for the advice.
Tried the HSPL Wrapper on that thread, updated the radio to 1.17 but it's still showing no service. Any other ideas?
Thanks again.
did you try put another sim card inside the phone?
I just have O2 cards atm. Still now joy though.
I am a failure.
I've just done a cracking stew in the slow cooker. First time making dumplins. I can rebuild and format a PC in less that two hours but this thing has got me beaten. I suppose I could use it for an e-book reader.
I've now got SPL-1.56.Olnex on there with the blackstonehenge Rom.
and 1.17.25.09 radio but it still won't connect.
If anyone has any better ideas I will make them some stew and dumplins. Geographical location allowing, and if the gf lets me have friends round.
Thanks anyways.

i think the OP said that they have bought this already
i used to be on orange, now on O2.
how old is the O2 simcard? i think this is the most likely cause
Yes, I already purchased the unlocker. I also tried a newer sim card that was a Christmas present. I'll nip out today and get a 99p sim card from another network. Any suggestions which would be best?
Works with vodaphone
Yes, it registers and works with a vodaphone simcard. It also works with t-mobile but I can't send or recive calls on that (mightbe a sim thing with a need to top up or something) But a new o2 PAYG sim card and my old one still bringing up no service.
Anyone got any suggestions about any manual settings I can do?

Your operator does have any rom for Touch HD on their site? If it does, try it and see if it works.
Also read this page, seems to be an O2 rom for Blackstone devices http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Versions .
This page may be usefull too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444170

Hi henshu. Have you tried checking your band settings. Make sure they all are set to Auto. Tap on phone then options then band.
I just bought this new phone 14days ago. I got my number transferred from a prepaid to a new simcard. Everything was good until they actually ported my number to the new simcard. After that i have NO internet at all.
I have a 3G icon and can call/sms but as i try open the browser it says. The page cannot be find. Also when i turn my phone off and on it says after i dialed my pincode: Error cant apply settings to modem.
My provider is T-mobile here from the netherlands, they had some interference at the beginning at the week, but i spoke with them today and they can see everything should work. I tried to make a new APN with the guidance from T-mobile but it dosent help. Also rebooted it 4 times from fabric settings, still nothing.
Can say that i havent done anything with the phone, its not hacked/rooted or whatever. Basically in same shape as when i bought it.
I read another tread that also descripes the problem i have but these phones are rooted, and didnt really get any solution out of it.

Dont know if its any help, but i can connect to the internet with my WIFI connection at home.
Does anyone have ANY idea to what i can do?

Maybe also nessasary to mention i DID put my SIM in another device. Still same outcome. NO internet still
Well if you haven't got data on the other phone either then I am pretty sure its a sim/provider issue and has got nothing to do with your phone at all

Yea you would think that, they told me in the store today that was not the case. Funny thing is i tryed to switch it again into another devince, and still nothing. However, as I went into the store i got a new simcard that didnt fix the prob. Suspecting some internal flaw?
Anyway, gonna call LG and use my vip change possibility so we'll see if its the device itself or not.
T-mobile offcourse claims that its a software prob, as this often happens on first batch phones
