Hi, i am newbie yet, but by what i read, RADIO is responsible by the communication, with GPRS, with 3g too for exemple.
My HTC TPT7272 works on dual-band trough the HSPA/WCDMA, only on 900 and 2100 MHz...
But here on my region, my provider provides the access for 3G only on 850/1900 MHz, so, i have to use EDGE to connect to the internet, but my HTC support 3G...
Does anybody know, if I can upgrade my radio, or if is possible to change the work band for 3G by the radio for provide my access to the 3G?
Grateful

I hope that would be the case, but I have yet to see it work for the many months on this forum. There are strong evidence that this is a hardware limitation on the Raphael. Unless you have a FUZE (AT&T version of Raphael), you are out of luck for 850/1900 HSUPA until someone comes forth with the software for us to try.
but so, u see some possibility?
if anybody knows, please contact me, i would love to use my HSUPA, crap of provider, could provide full signal..
if some version of raphael works on this band, could i install his radio? i really wants to navigate on 3G signal...
LOOK IT:
Fuze/AT&T(HTC RAPHAEL 101)
Cellular;Phone
Cellular-Networks: GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS850, UMTS1900, UMTS2100
Cellular+Data+Links: CSD, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA
FUZE WORKS ON IT, on 850, anybody know if I install his radio will work??
The official specs on HTC's website doesn't inlude 850/1900 as part of the HSPA (3G) connection, only for EDGE.
I have tried many of the radios here and none gives me 3G connection for my carrier, which is on 850 band for HSDPA.
I have tried 1.02.25.19
and then 1.02.25.28
and then 1.02.25.32
and then 1.08.25.20M1
and now 1.11.25.01
but I haven't tried any radios for the other phones since my TP is not security/CID unlock. You can try all the raphael radios, then consider getting CID unlock to try the other radios if you wish.
I have been on this forum for a few months and yet to read anyone successful in getting a TP working on 850. If you do succeed, please share this knowledge for I am sure there are still ppl out there wanting the same thing as you do as well. Myself being one of them.
I wish you success in this endeavor.
man, i am iniciant, i took my HTC TP in around 1 mounth, and one point that almost conviced me not to buy this pda was the 3g band.. i wait this more than you, lets wait if anyvody with much experience can post one help for us

they haven't updated recently, which means there is no more 'news' on it.
you can try searching for 3G in the elite RC3 thread up in the sticky section.
they still don't have a solution either.
you can keep waiting.

Hi,
I purchased my HTC HD2 in India having HSPA: 900/2100 MHz band. I'm travelling to the US this month where AT&T has their 3G in 1900/850 band and T-Mobile has their 3G in 1700 (AWS Band). Is there anyway possible to flash my radio rom to support either T-Mobile or AT&T 3G Band?
My Phone Software Info
ROM version
1.66.707.1(76641) WWE (Official)
Radio Version
2.06.51.07
HSPL
1.66

The answer is NO, prabu. You'll be stuck on EDGE no matter which carrier you're on (AT&T or TmoUS).
Thank You for the response, Will it work if I flash my phone with T-Mobile ROM?
No. It's a matter of hardware. A software flash will not enable HSPA on your Euro/Asia HD2.
I did a search and couldn't find my inquiry so i ask the great minds of XDA for help. I just got a unbranded HD2 with my AT&T SIM card. What's the recommended ROM? Also, will i be able to get 3G? My SPL is 3.03, from what i read, would i need to Downgrade that SPL or can i just get HSPL with no problems?
Big Thanks to whomever can answer this question.
well from what i know it depends oh which hd2 you have. i have a tmous hd2 and can only get edge cause the 3g bands are different, you need to find out what your 3g band is and if its the same as att's. if its the testra version you should be able to get 3g
I have a TMoUS HD2 on AT&T's network and it works perfectly though it is only Edge, (no 3G).
I'm using Cleanex Core 1.00 WWE with Radio 2.10.50.28_2 and it is fast, smooth, with great battery life with data connection and Wifi on all the time.
As others have said.. it really depends on what you bought. I recently purchased a Telstra HD2 which has 3G bands that are compatible with AT&T 850 MHz towers here in the US. And boy does it smoke on 3G
Telstra HD2 ROM change for ATT?
Radon222,
Did you flash your Telstra HD2 ROM to get rid of the proprietary glitz from the Telstra carrier programming?
Any recommendations on a vendor for the Telstra HD2?
I have the unlocked TMOUS HD2 on the ATT network.
Investigating an upgrade to the Telstra HD2 for the 3G speed.

I bought my Telstra used from Doug on Mobility Digest. So I couldnt really recommend a vendor. It was already flashed with an NRG ROM when i got it but have since upgraded both the HSPL and flashed the latest NRG.
So Far I really love this phone. The 3G speed is incredible as long as you aren't in Manhattan and are covered with an 850 MHz tower.
