Hi,
I am an android noob and would really appreciate some help here. I recently acquired a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10i running on Gingerbread 2.3.3. The phone however has failed to live up to my expectations as its connectivity to the internet is very terrible. The mobile networks in my location provide either 3G or HSDPA. The phone however is predominantly on EDGE and even then there is no connectivity with EDGE. Only Opera Mini manages to pull down pages after many minutes of requesting the page and constant refreshing. The same SIM when inserted in a USB Modem dongle gives stable HSDPA internet connectivity. When connected to HSDPA though, the phone's connectivity i trouble free. My question is: Why am I unable to browse or use any of the apps (facebook,play store, twitter, bbc news, Y! Messenger etc) with and EDGE connection? I have tried to restrict connectivity to only WCDMA in settings but this only results in long periods of loss of network on the phone. Help please. I need the phone to operate on EDGE as well as HSDPA as most parts of Nigeria has EDGE coverage with HSDPA only being rolled out in stages in select locations. Thanks

Try to change the network mode to GSM/WCDMA preferred.nd in ur area if there is no full coverage of hsdpa.then the network mode fluctuates to edge to hsdpa.so if u want nly 2g.then select GSM only.then the network wnt fulctuate to hsdpa.
if helped hit thanks

Lke you said if its hard to get a 2g connection the x10 may not be capable of it for some reason in your area :/
If u want to switch between 2g n 3g ,that depends on.ur network provider ( I in India went and ask Docomo service company if I could switch between 2g( EDGE) AND 3g . I got a flat ' no ' reply) .
If u only want 2g go to network settings, and change to GSM only. It may work provided ur service provider doesn't use 3g on it.

Just switch your network to GSM only in network settings and it would only pick up 2G.

Hello everybody. After I moved from android 2.3.5 to 4.2.2 my phone stopped searching 3g. In only 3g mode there is no connection to my operator and any other network. Can someone help me to solve this?

It was already done. MMS is working, Edge is working. 3g is not working. My friend has Sensation XL with the same operator and at his phone 3g works well. So the problem is in newer radiomodule or in newer android or I'm handass and done something wrong). Wifi works good and network type is Wcdma prefered, but there is, in service meny, type of network is EDGE. Any 3g in any caces.
Ok, thread can be closed, my provider something changing in towers and 3g isnt available for this moment.
Hello everybody, i purchased K900 from china last month and receive it quickly. He looks very nice but i've got a problem with it. I'm on vibe rom V7 includes android 4.2.2 with french operator SOSH sim card. When i'm using 3G data mode, it doesn't work, i mean : that's impossible to open any webpage or internet connexion. I'm trying resolve the problem with APN configuration but without success. And, when i switch form 2G/GSM mode, it works, but the debit is too low to exploit data possibilities.
So, i've tried to launch internet connexion with Bouygues Telecom sim card, and 3G works fine....
I believe the problem is my K900 doesn't support SOSH frequences (Orange operator).
Anyone can explain me what's going on my phone?
Best regards.
Up?
I mean, 3g signal behavior on my k900 is lost and found constantly.....
Please help me diagnose this trouble!
Best regards

Thanks karellang but network mode still Only WCDMA....
It's surprising because SOSH (Orange) and Bouygues both use 2100MHz frequences for HSDPA.
I just bought my K900 a week ago, I'll try my B&You (Bouygues) simcard tonight and check it works.
Alright! I saw that i tried with a bgtel sim ans that works perfectly.... The signal is always There with no losts. Please someone tell me if he had a sosh sim, and the correct APN he is using for data?
Best regards...:crying:
HI, I am a lucky (for now) owner of OPX.
I have problem with network switching. Iam living in small village and i have to use network roaming (yes, i can use others providers network as well for free - in my country).
I'am in P4 network(base/mother network), but in my village there is no good signal for this network - so, i just using another one - usually PTC 3G because this network has best signal in my area.
I have few android phones in the same network (P4) and when i select network, phones do not switch to any other network - even if there is no signal of this network (Nexus4, Nexus5, Sony Xperia Z and CAT S40).
With OPX its different, and very problematic. When i switch to PTC network, it works and not switch to any other network until i left the phone and let it for sleep... (5-10 min) then network switch to the base network P4 and ussually there is no signal in this network, and i have to wait until i can make a call or send SMS message. I dont have the problem with any other phone. I see, that the problem intensifies in specifed room, where is Wifi(dualband) router - but not only. I suppose, its software problem.
EDIT: Switching to P4 network happens when phone screen is off and phone is in idle, after turn on the screen and waiting few seconds, phone ussualy connecting to PTC netwok with good signal.
Screen with bad signal: 1drv.ms/1JmvSU1
EDIT2: I found another freaky thing, after while of phone IDLE, iam turning on screen, and there is full P4 signal, after 1-3sec freeze (yes, freeze, laag) signal agin is 0 and i can enter phone PIN code to unlock.
And there is my question, how to make this works well ? Is there any way to force select only one network ? (i dont need switchning). Maybe can i do this with root privilieges ? I hope, you can help me guys.
