Hi and welcome, I also live in canada and my xperia is x1a (a is for america)
Have you run the connection wizard in settings?
This is what i would try.
Also if you bought the phone from rogers ask why it's a x1i.

I tried it, doesnt work.
it's x1i because I bought it before the release in canada....
I bought it from e-bay...

Ok so you are missing a band, go to the se home page and you can see the difference between the x1a and x1i.
See if you can sell it on ebay and get the right one.

You can.. a few places here in Toronto have it in stock, but it is the Asian verision and the radio will not supports rogers 3g. You will only be able to get so so GSM quality for your calls, and slow internet.
With the addtion of Roger's high priced data plans and the early performance problems of the current verision of the Diamond.. i sold mine.. and still use my old trusted HTC 3600P...
Going to check out the Iphone 3G today...

Hi
You can use it with some networks (Not CMDA) and you´ll loose 3G pretty sure (Unless htc develops an american version)
However I´m using my Uni in Mexico since 2005 and works well on my carrier (www.telcel.com) and I can´t connect to 3G, but personally not care as long as I have WIFI or WIMAX wich I do.
Good day,

Thank you for your answer...i know people with a htc tytn II (european version) and they are using at&t but the 3g doesnt work...I'm sure at&t and t-mobile will work but not verizon am I right? Thanks!
For usa: 1900/2100=3g - 1800/1900=no 3g

Yes sir, you are right. Verizon, Sprint and others use CDMA technology, wich is different from AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. that use GSM. If you don't know how to tell the diff, it's pretty simple....SIM card=GSM, NON SIM card=CDMA.
Also the US network uses UMTS/HSDPA (850/900/1900/2100 MHz), while the European network works on 850/900/1800/1900 MHz.
So, if you buy the touch pro2 you won't get 3G in USA, unless AT&T come out with......let's say something like "FUZE 2" or I read somewhere that the name was revealed already (but don't remember).

NO
Your provider should support it, it has nothing to do with sim-card.
Just put it in and the phone will ask you to set GPRS settings for your provider.

Actually not really true. In Singapore, mobile users were asked to upgrade their G SIMs to 3G SIMs when 3G was introduced widely here.
I guess it would depend on your service provider and how old your SIM is.

That's something you should ask your provider.

HTC HD7 bell on rogers?

hey guys, I bought an HTC HD7 phone off of a guy that brought his fone over from the UK and I'm on a rogers carrier so I can't get a 3G connection due to the diff bands I guess, so if I bought an HD7 phone off of a guy on a Bell carrier and I unlocked it, would I be able to get that 3G connection? cuzz this edge crap is driving me nuts! I have a great data plan and I wanna take advantage of it by streaming my fav radio stations and stuff like that....or is there a way of getting 3g on my current phone? cuzz I entered all the APN settings and still no 3G!!
ok so I'm guessing with the non responses that this cant be done, as I thought since the last 2 years bell switched to GSM AND CDMA to accommadate the iPhone users of their customers...which is why I was thinking I can use a bell HTC HD7 phone on a rogers account. CAN ANYONE confirm or deny if its possible? aaanyone?
ok thx for nothing guys...
as long as the 3G bands match, 3G should work.
couldn't find the 3G frequency bands for either Rogers or Bell Mobility in my quick google search.
but i believe AT&T and Rogers use the same 3G bands, so an HTC HD7S should work if you can find one.
I have a hd7 on bell. If I can find a friend on Rogers I will try swapping the SIM cards and seeing if that works.
wonderful! thx guys appreciate it...

quick google/bing search shows both Bell and Rogers use 850/1900..so yes, long as it's unlocked it should work just dandy
great sound kool, thx for the info
I'm using an unlocked Bell HD7 on fido (rogers), and 3G works great!
ahh kool! thx for the info
