Hi all
Vodafone PAYG user here in the UK
I updated my phone to 10.2 this evening and the phone restarted.
Since then, I cannot get internet, even though in the notification bar, it clearly states I have H+, 4G, E etc.
There is no internet connection at all. I can only get internet through WiFi
I have tried:
- Removing / replacing the SIM
- Reset network settings
- Factory reset phone
Nothing has worked.
Before I send this back to Amazon, does anyone else know how to go about fixing this?
Kind regards,
Stephen.

Hi all - Just got a diamond 2 from ebay . I can get everything connected no problems through wifi however with the wifi off nothing connects phone works sms works sim is showing an HSDPA connection and o2 has changed to 3g o2 . Is there any settings i have missed to connect to the internet any other way except wifi.
Tried so far all report connection error.
Weather widget
Live messenger
data connection - won't turn on
Phone is on o2 in UK.
Other thing to mention is i left this sim in the phone overnight as my old number was being transferred to it have tried a soft reset as well.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Finally managed to find some settings hidden under about 15 different layers to change the gprs settings and connect to everything else. No idea where they are now so i'm afraid i can't help future users coming into this post but if i reflash with a different rom no doubt i will be tearing my hair out to enter them again and when i find them this time i will write them down.
(I'm doing this from memory so forgive me if I have left something out.)
Generally if you go to Settings\Connections\Connections and I believe you go to the advanced? tab, you should see 2 connections settings, set both to internet.
Thanks for the reply Bruce. Couldn't find it in the ROM i'm using so instead i found another way . Entered here incase anyone else comes up with the same problem.
1: goto settings>wireless controls - this also works if you go to weather and let it try to update over data.
2: click data connection - it will try to connect and fail.
3: on the failure screen click settings
4: on the settings tab adjust the internet settings for your provider in my case o2 active settings
5: click advanced and from there you can edit the details as you wish..
Hope that helps someone else out there and again thanks for the reply Bruce
I have an HD7 and intermittently I will try and use my phone, I will have perfectly fine signal yet none of my apps email/youtube/facebook/internet explorer/bing search can connect to the web. Signal will be be fine yet they will pull no data.
If I restart the phone it will work again for a few hours and then randomly happen again. Personally I am getting just a little annoyed with having to constantly restart the phone 5-6 times a day. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Just so you guys know I am not trying to troll or dog the OS, merely wondering if I have a faulty unit or if this is an OS issue.

so sorry, but do u have data connection with your current sim/plan????
my last plan did not have data plan on it and the phone did not work until i sudscribed the data...
and u cant set up phone with out 3G data plan...
I faced the same trouble few days ago. I dont have Wifi, cannot download "connection setup", but i flash a Singtel Rom (My HD7 is T-mobile):
RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_SEA_WWE_1.57.728.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed
Then it work, data connection is fine.
For anyone who comes from an Android phone with data service, check with T-Mobile to see if the service is combined or separate. T-Mobile did have two separate data services, one for WinMo and another for Android, and they would not work with the other phone system. This is how it was with my service and T-Mobile combined them for me so that my data service now works with either system.

Yeah I have data on my plan. Data will work fine for hours but then I will put it down while doing something use it again and no data. If I reset it then it works again for a short while until it happens again.

3g data connection is spotty form time to time and place to place... my provider told me that it always depends on how many ppl are using that substation or whatever they call it....

Hi Jason,
Was it difficult to flash your T-Mobile (USA?) HTC HD7 with the above ROM? Did you gain anything else over the original T-Mobile Rom? I presume it will get rid of the T-Mobile splash screen! Cheers.
Running into the same problem as the OP with my Mrs. HD7. Took hers for the last little while and I can do a reset and access about 3 pages worth of info or updates and then it drops. Tried manual apn configuration, automatic and htc connection setup and no luck. This is at all times of the day in all locations so it is not network based or sim card based as I went to the t mobile store and stuck in the sim and was able to access the network with zero problems on all demo phones. Customer care finally agreed to a warranty replacement after some help from a store rep. They would not allow an in store exchange unfortunately.
What network are you with? I get data issues on giffgaff quite a lot. But a reset does nothing about it - it seems to be related to which cell tower I'm bouncing off and whether it feels like giving me data connection (even though signal strength is maxed out!).
I have this same problem, personally ive had it with my HD2. A quick fix for this is turning on and off airplane mode instead off turing off and on your device.
Hey
I have a little problem which has rendered my N1 practically useless as a phone. I was on MicroMod's Gingerbread ROM for some and all was going fine. Today I decided to switch to CM7 nightly. It worked fine but after a reboot I realized that my phone was not connecting to my network. I rebooted, wiped and reflashed, tried a different sim, tried a different rom. Everything. It just isn't working. My network bars are grayed zero and there is a small cross on them. My notifications show my Service Provider's name (Airtel), and on the lockscreen it reads: (No Service)|Airtel. I went into network operators in settings and it says searching for a while then a toast notification pops up saying that there was an error while searching for network. What should I do? Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Raptor
P.S.:It's not a network problem. I tried using my sim in another phone and it worked just fine.
Never mind actually. I fixed the problem. The device would sometime start connecting to the network properly for a few minutes. The 5th time that happened I went into mobile operators in the wireless and network section of settings. From there I selected my network and rebooted. My device has been working perfectly since then.

the weirdest thing happened to me, my phpne was working fine, i flashed fearkill fr13 after a full wipe coming from fr12 mcr.
It worked well for a couple of hours and all of the sudden i cant connect to my network. The only way it connects is by enabling 2g networks only and even like that i cant make any calls. I have even tried reinstalling the baseband 405 and nothing works...
My network is fine by the way, its just my phone
Please help me!!
Edit:
A little more info:
I tried a different sim card with the same results
Whenever i try to search for a network it just stays thinking for a while and does nothing
When I try to do it automatically it says it cannot connect to the network at this time immediately...
I managed to make a call on 2g networks only but as soon as i remove the check i cant connect
Edit 2:
Woooooow, this just gets weirder by the second!!
I can connect to the internet with wifi disabled and a clear X on the network as in no network connection... I can browse the internet just fine, NO CALLS though
... after countless Wipes and installing plenty of roms With no luck i gave up and as soon as i Woke up it Was Working again... strange but im happy
Guess it was your network after all
maybe, i had a blackberry beside it with a working 3g connection :S
And no idea how to explain 3g working with no bars and an x on it haha
O have problems with my network connection too.
In some rooms at my house I can get 3G access and in another room only EDGE.
Several times per day I can't get access to the network anyway. The only way to solve the probölem is to restart the phone.
Sometimes my phone tells me it is connected but there is no data transfer for several hours. I noticed that when I got home and many emails from the last hours appeared after being connected to my wifi.
I'm using the MCR but I've also tried the ROM from romkitchen-org. Changing the baseband had no effect.
I'll have a try with the stock ROM. If this would fail too I'll send my phone back to the dealer. I think it could also be an hardware defect.

I turned my Mobile Network (3g data) connection off for the night to conserve battery, and the next morning when I tried to connect again via the quick settings, it didn't connect.
Under settings it has the caption, "Connection Failed".
The network was working fine for ages prior to this, and on a few occasions, turning off Mobile Network for the night was fine.
I've tried resetting the phone and taking out the battery + SIM for a few minutes.
I've also tried re-entering APN settings with no luck.
I'm with Vodafone Australia, running the stock 2.3.3 virgin au rom.
Nobody else on vodafone is failing (relatively speaking )

Update:
It was a 3G widget messing everything up, thanks letmedanz
Any ideas?

Did you try wifi connection?
just wondering..
i am quite certain your problem is with the apn settings.
try deleting the existent apn and enter a new one. save it and try reconnecting...
though not very important, you could check for the port number to enter in the apn settings with vodafone.
also, if you are using any third party apn modification tools or even a simple 3G on-off widget, the settings do get wasted.
if you do, uninstall them, re-enter apn settings and try
