Rogers (Canada) 3G Settings?

I'm having troubles connecting to 3G with my IS. Up until a few days ago I had an HTC Desire Z that was unlocked, and rooted. It worked great on rogers 3G.
I'm lost as what to try. I've accessed the *#*#4636#*#* menu, and tried GSM auto (PRL), and I end up getting 3G but then it drops. The only way I seem to be able to keep the data connection is to set it to GSM only which gives me 2G/edge
anyone know what else I can try?
Thanks

Have you added an APN for Rogers?

It's under Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
I'm using a Bell Incredible S on Telus after entering the relevant Telus APN settings, and get the HSPA/3G icon.

well I got it working. When I checked the APN, the MMS proxy ip was missing. I did have it all in there correct before though. I guess from the *#*#4636#*#* menu switching settings in there trying to get it up deleted the proxy ip?
Either way, it's working great. Thanks for the reply thedosbox

[Q] No 3G with 2.3.3 Gingerbread?

I've just upgraded from 2.2, and now I can't seem to get 3G working with AT&T. Does anybody have any suggestions? I've tried fiddling with the Settings but nothing seems to work. Help is appreciated, thanks.
In the About Device, the Mobile network type listed is HSDPA, but the Mobile network state is Disconnected.

Have you checked your APN settings? Also what's your baseband version showing in 'About device'?

Please use WCDMA mode

Go to Settings, Wireless & Network, Mobile Networks, Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN and name it Broadband & make the APN Broadband as well. Just leave the other options and save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN which doesnt work with the Tab Data plan.

Flash the bell modem then set the apn to get data and phone working after flashing stock 2.3.3?

Thank you so much! This worked! Just did this and restarted.

[A] AT&T Monthly Data Only APN Broadband Setttings

Since I've replied to about 4 threads already with the same answer, I figured I would post this here and maybe have it made a sticky.
If you have recently flashed a new non AT&T Rom (Euro,Gingerbread, Overcome, CM7, etc..) you Galaxy Tab will not have the correct APN setting for your monthly data sim from AT&T.
The fix:
Go to Settings
Wireless & Network
Mobile Networks
Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN:
Name: Broadband
APN: Broadband
Just leave the other options as is, save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN which doesnt work with the Tab Data plan.

OMG You're a lifesaver!
I just flashed my respiffied $200 AT&T Galaxy Tab with Overcome 2.0, and have been beating my head into the wall trying to flash modems and do all kinds of resets.
Thank you so much!

Weird part is, I had this exact problem when I activated a data plan for the first time on my AT&T tab a few days ago. Checked, and I had I already had an APN called "APN Broadband" so I thought it was a different problem. After fighting it for a while, I decided to create the new one with the name "Broadband" with the exact same settings as the "APN Broadband" one, and it worked perfectly! Apparently, the name is critical!

I just went through the same thing with my new AT&T Galaxy Tab. I had to modify one of the entries noted above to get it to work.
Name : APN Broadband (not ATT Broadband)
APN: Broadband
I'm happy camping again.

BTW, my Galaxy Tab is rooted using SuperOneClick.
OK, now I'm confused. As previously stated, I changed the APN name to APN Broadband and APN to Broadband and the wireless data started working. I turned on wifi, opened some random web pages, then shut off wifi. Now I'm not connecting to AT&T wireless data. I check the APN's again and the tab reverted back to the factory ATT Broadband. I swapped it back to the new APN I created (APN Broadband) and still could not get data. Now I changed back to the factory ATT Broadband, still no data. I began searching for more input. After 5+ minutes, I saw the 3G icon and I can reach the internet and market. I am new to Android devices, so I may be wrong, but I am not convinced I am done working this issue. If anyone else is has encountered this issue and have permanently fixed it, please add some food for thought.

Very interesting, as the one I had named "APN Broadband" is the one that would drop service whenever I opened Market, and I had to do exactly what the OP stated in his post to get it to work.
On a side note, I have noticed that it switches back to the default "APN Broadband" everytime I cycle airplane mode. I have to go back into the settings and choose "Broadband" again. Maybe I should just delete the old "APN Broadband" APN and hope it doesn't screw anything up.

Delete it. It will only make things easier for you.

Thanks!
RichAP, thank you very much for the APN info!
I spent the morning trying various combinations of uppercase, lowercase, password, no password entries with the wap.cingular.com APN. I did a bunch of searches and finally found this post. Didn't believe it could be as easy as just entering "broadband" into the APN settings, lol.
My AT&T 7" Galaxy Tab is now up and running with Overcome 7 v4.1 and using 3G. Yay!
(edit: yes I posted this as my first post just so I could hit the thanks button.)

I know this is an old thread but it helped me out recently, however, I found I had to use a regular phone SIM in my Note 4 Edge to add the Broadband APN and then switch back to the broadband SIM. If anyone is searching this issue and having a similar problem I hope this info might be helpful.

No 3G with Darky's Rom 10.1

I finished installing Darky's 10.1 Extreme Mod onto my Samsung Galaxy S the other day, and since then I have not had any connection to a 3G network.
I live in Australia and my phone carrier is Virgin Mobile running on the Optus Network. Before I flashed over from a Voodoo Lag Fixed stock 2.2, 3G worked fine.
I have checked in the wireless and networks setting to make sure the phone is set to "Use packet data" under mobile networks (Data roaming is turned off), but it makes no difference. I have also turned packet data off and on to make sure. Network Mode is set to GSM/WCDMA (auto mode). During setup for Darky's Rom, I left the Modem to defualt settings, JQ1 or something.
I'm not sure what I have broken but I'd love some help getting 3G back. It is very limiting to what a good smart phone can do.
Thanks

which model of I9000 u have? most likely is a modem problem i installed GB in my GT-I9000T and i had to go back to froyo cuz i didnt had 3G and low network reception...i recommend you to wait for more versions of GB come out if that is your case...

what about your APN settings?
Settings -> Wireless and Network -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names

So far as I can tell from the About Phone settings page, it is just a plain GT-I9000 with a Baseband of I9000XXJVO. Though I can't remember what it said before the flash.

There is nothing in the APN Settings. Should there be names?
More Info
I looked up the APN settings for Virgin Mobile Australia and entered them into the phone but when I saved the new APN it didn't appear in the list. Just gone.
I inserted the SIM Card into an unmodified Samsung Galaxy TAB in which I have used this SIM card in the past. Still can't get 3G on the TAB, and there was no settings in the APN section. Could be a problem with the SIM card?
I also used a feature on virgin mobiles website to send the APN settings to the phone but they return an error when trying to send me the settings.

Oddly enough if I just enter in the name of the network and no other details, it does save the APN correctly and works fine again. Sweet
Thanks though all.

Just as I suspected. Those are the 3G settings for your network. If you used Titanium Backup those settings are under [SMS/MMS/APN] Dialer Storage, just restore and reboot your phone and thats it.

no 3G after flash

so i got my tablet back up and running, but its not showing any signs of Cellular life
i flashed CWM7 and i have it up and functioning. i have the stock AT&T modem from the [MODEMS] list, should i apply a different one?
i have the APN settings correct, however, i'm not sure why the tab isnt registering on the network?

i just wanted to post a quick update on this.
i did have wrong APN settings :/ i was using a APN for a phone vs just mobile broadband data.
