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?

T Mobile 3g

Does anyone know if the TYTN II works on the new T Mobile 3g network in New York City? Woule likr to hear from someone who is actually using this 3g network.

Does anyone know if the TYTN II works on the new T Mobile 3g network in New York City? Would like to hear from someone who is actually using this 3g network.

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.

HTC Diamond in Chile - 3G

Hi.
I have a HTC Diamond with the last ROMs (Panosha and SwiftBL 6.0 full) an 0.5 radio. I bought a 3G Chip to Entel, Movistar and Claro, but my experience with all of them was unhappy.
Entel and Claro only show EDGE in connections. Movistar shows the tuple EDGE, 3G.
All of them show an E in top bar. Never show 3G o H. I tried all options in Telephone --> band. The results are the same.
My question is :
The HTC Diamond recognize the 3g band in Chile? How I can configure it?
Thanks in advance.

Same but Panosha 1.7 and .08 radio.
Entel. No 3G only EDGE. Edge is enough for email, googlemaps, rss and casual surfing. But I wouldent mind having 3G (obviously).
So you say Movistar 3G works on Diamond?
Thanks bye.

COLOMBIA!!!!
HEY i am from colombia and i am planning to buy the same gadget (HTC DIAMOND), but i think i won´t be able to download data trough 3g because here MOVISTAR use 850 band, and the htc diamond don´t, so i want to know the same, if there is some ROM or RADIO or UPDATE or something that would let me transfer data in 3G (850) band.

Hi Sergio.
I don't know if Movistar works in 3G. In my Diamond the connection icon in the top bar shows EDGE,3G when i tap over it. but the icon is an E ¿?
We have and Iphone 3G and Nokias 3G and the same chip shows 3G ¿? Not all the time, only short times.
Is the diamond a real 3G device in Chile??????

850mhz GSM bands yes.. but not 3G 850mhz bands..

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.

[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.
