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?

Havn't tried it yet.

just want to use 2g...

Hi...
How do I can choose between use 3g or 2g? (there are a few programs that connect 3g automatically and it's a bit expensive )
are there any way so i can use 3g and GPRS only if i say so?
thanks
in settings-phone you can setup which band you would like to use (gsm, gsm+umts, umts)...

No idea but R is definitely for roaming
its simple... the MCC MNC of the sim card dosent match the MCC MNC of the phone... same thing appen to me when i where used my htc dream on bell network, on cocked rom or not... for the 3g icon be sure to enable data when roaming in your network setting...
sorry for my english i'm french
i want to specify you will never be charged as roaming even you stay on fido network and you cant do nothing for the R in the signal bar... it's normal you will learn to live with that...
Seems like Canada Fido is borrowing somebody else's network, you're roaming cos the connected network isn't the same as the simcard's network name.

In some cases, a carrier uses other carrier's network by agreement, it's a kind of national roaming, with no extra costs for you.
Some will say that the Android OS cannot "see" the difference between this kind of "national roaming" from real roaming and then you get the little "R" all the time visible next to the signal bars.
On the other hand some will say that your Carrier should (if it's really is borrowing network), provide the right codes to avoid this confusion.
Btw, you say "european i9000". Why? did you tried another version before?

2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100
i think fido need UMTS/HSPA 850MHz and/or 1900MHz and the frequency most widely used is the 850MHz so this is why you dont get 3g... only edge conection... you will probaly get 3g in some regions...
may be your best way to get 3g is selling your i9000 and buy another one with the right hspa band...

[Q] Only using 3g connection on hd7

hi everyone ,i'm a new user .
as title i make this question.i often connect to internet by 3g connection.i went to setting/mobile network then i set data connection: on,3g connection: on and my country APN.My Hd7 work well ,but only "use 3g connection when availale". it almost switch to 2g network
Anybody have ideas to solve it ?it really really necessary for me
Sorry for my bad English,hope you understand my problem
Go to the dialer. Type ##3282#. Go to settings, under 'Network Type', choose 3G only. If it's already on 3G only (I think it moves back and forth between 2G only and 3G only while on Automatic mode), change it to 2G only, then back to 3G only. This will keep it on 3G only.
thank you very much.i solved it
hello friends I have a t-mobile hd7 but I'm from Colombia, they know how I can make it work on 3G network here in Colombia because it only works on 2g

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.
