I'm still fiddling and have changed my baseband to AUS2 which I believe is 850mhz only which in theory should pick up a signal because telecom xt network is 850/2100mhz only. The problem now I think is that the 850mhz radio frequency is not working?? When I change it to AUS band (pretty sure it's 850/2100mhz) my phone gets a signal and also all the other bands which have 2100mhz so my thoughts are that my phone is only picking up the 2100mhz signal which is only in a few areas in nz -.- Now I have read that you can access your phones service menu via dialler codes but I cannot find any for the huawei ideos x1 which is a shame because all of the codes havn't worked. Or I read somewhere that flashing a new modem to my device with the 850mhz band in it will also solve the problem but I have no idea which one will be suitable for me.......basically I need phone signal for work etc and have noo idea what to to do to resolve the problem and that's why I came to this forum in hope that one of you experts can help haha. If anyone can suggest something once again thaks

Hi,
i guess that you saw this question somewhere but still there is no solution for it.
in israel there is two gsm providers, they are both work at 900/1800.
i have sx56 phone that is 900/1800.
the problem is that i can only find one of them in my sx56 and i dont understeand why,
i tried many radio stack versions and different roms.
what else could it be?
maybe a radio stack that i didnt try?
please help.
thanks
Have you tried changing the band to 900/1800 in the bootloader?
yes,
but the thing is that both of them are 900/1800 and i can only find one
Can you explain in more detail what your problem is, if you want 900/1800 and you have 900/1800 what is the problem?
i can connect only to one 900/1800 network.
there is another one than i cannot find when i click (find network)
Have you tried inserting a sim from this other provider in your xda?
yes i tried it.
also have you tried to use the sim in a normal phone ?
You have been misinformed
You propably have figured it out but still:
In Israel there are two GSM providers
Orange which band is 900
Cellcom which band is 1800
You listed your device as a B type which is 900/1900
Hence you can only connect to Orange
Hi All,
Few months ago, I've bought an HTC Touch Pro from Newpan Tellcom in Israel.
Yesterday I've left my Mobile Carrier (Cellcom) and I moved to Pelephone - Other Mobile Carrier.
Since I moved to Pelephone I've some reception/signal problems.
I know that Pelephone are working with UMTS/HSPA 850+2100 MHZ bands,
but my Touch Pro supports only HSPA/WCDMA 900/2100 MHz bands.
When I've tried to switch to UMTS band, the only option that I've got was UMTS 2100+800 MHZ bands.
In order to have good reception, I must be connected to UMTS/HSPA 850+2100 MHZ bands.
I've tried to Upgrade my phone's ROM to the latest EnergyROM 'Phoenix 2' buit 21877 and still I've reception problem.
Is there any way to solve this issue?
Please Help Me!
I think Touch Pro is known to be weak on radio reception. I myself in US am suffering the same problem. While my wife's Samsung phone gets four bars around our house, I gets only one on my Fuze. And my data connection keeps bouncing between 3G and EDGE or even GPRS.
I did some googling about the Fuze receptionn problem, and it seems to me that a lot of people suffer the same problem.

But somebody in US claimed that a newer version of SIM card from AT&T will help the problem a little, and it was confirmed by some of the people went for the "solution", while the rest think it does not work.

Don't know if the same possibility is available in Israel.
Hi everybody.
I purchased a unlocked gsm optimus t (t-mobile) in USA last week. Well, in my country we have a 850/1900 wcdma band (it seems the same at USA), but, i can´t conect to 3G network.
Searching for the phone specs, i find it the optimus t work in 1700/2100 network, it´s that correct??. If the answer is yes, it is possible to change wcdma frequency in this phone??.
Thanks for you help.
Pd: I read if i install a correct firmware for my country (Chile) is possible to change it.
I don't think so. There are 2 versions of the phone. I've bought mine in Chile, and no matter what ROM I use, I still can connect to the 3G network.
However, I think you should keep your phone and wait for Nextel or VTR networks to become operational, which will work on those bands.
You should see those 3G networks doing a network search on your mobile.

Howzit guys,
I brought a HTC Aria in the USA on AT&T network. I came back to SA and rooted my phone put Android v2.2 on (phone came with v2.1) thinking that would unlock the phone, but it didn't. I ended up looking on the net for a website that I could get an unlock code for my phone. Long story short, I found one, paid for it and it worked. I'm using the phone on Vodacom no matter what I do I can't get 3G or HSDPA to work, only GPRS. HSDPA and 3G work fine in the states.
After doing some research I noticed that in the Mobile Network settings on the phone there is 3 options under Network Mode:
1. WCDMA only
2. GSM only
3.GSM / WCDMA auto
Now from what I've seen I need to use WCDMA to get the 3G / HSDPA to work, but when I select option 1. I don't get any signal and then phone eventually switches to GSM automatically. I was at work on the weekend helping a customer with her laptop and she had a 8•ta 3G modem, and 8•ta 3G modems are currently running off of MTN's network I was told this by an 8•ta technician and I noticed when connecting the modem it said something regarding WCDMA.
So now my question, if I change to MTN do you think I will be able to use 3G / HSDPA on my phone?
Any info regarding this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
The American version of the Aria uses different 3G frequencies (because that's what AT&T uses), so unfortunately your phone will not work with 3G in South Africa. There is a different version of the Aria (called Gratia in most regions) that is the exact same phone except it supports the correct 3G frequencies for your country, but there's nothing you can do with the phone you have now to make it work.
Hi, i have a Moto E 2015 XT 1524, one friend bought it in Spain, but I live in Argentina and the bands are different, in Spain 3g works in 2100/900. In argentina 850/1900, so my movil only works in 2g... the question is if I flashing a new base band.... the 3g will be work?
Sorry for my bad english...
From what I understand, all Moto E models support at least 3G and some 4G. This is at the hardware level. Now your baseband is a firmware thing which will allow your device to communicate with phone towers in your region. So unless your firmware supports two or more bands, you most certainly will need to flash a new stock ROM for the region and service provider as needed.
To answer your question... If the new region you are flashing a new ROM for supports 3G, then yes you should get a 3G signal. If the signal is weak, then it may receive as 2G strength.
I am in the US where every service is at least 3G capable. So every smart phone is also 3G capable. But even still on my 4G version of Moto E I sometimes get a 2G signal. So it's hard to answer yes or no.
If you flash a ROM for Spain and get no signal, you have flashed the wrong ROM. If you flash a ROM and get 2G, then perhaps you are in a bad area with low reception.
In theory, you should receive the same signal as the people around you-Give or take a bar.
If 4G is supported in the area you want to move to and your device supports it as well, then you may very well get that signal too.
Does this help to explain it?
Thanks for your answer... In your opinion... If I flash a new stock ROM the 3g will be works? My model isn't released in Argentina yet... If I flash a firmware from UE my phone will be work?
Only if 3G is supported by the carrier in the region you wish to be. And assuming that the carrier is capable with the ROM you flash. Sometimes cross threading ROMs to a new service works. It all depends.
Thanks for your responses, the technical service told me: Bands Red 2G GSM / GPRS / EDGE 850/900/1800/1900
Red 3G bands UMTS / HSDPA / HSPA + 850/1700/1900/2100.
So I guess it will work if I change my stock rom. What I need is the XT1527 RM, is the United States and works in Argentina. How do I download it? ... And most importantly ... can I put this rom in my phone although the model is another? ...
Please... I need the xt1527 base band... Someone can help me???
Reflash a compatible stock ROM from the following link to fix your base band:

Hello!
I had a simillar problem with the XT1524. I also live in Argentina.
The XT model is international, so at a hardware level you have all the bands, but it is limited by the software.
The solution is (tranks to JasonPro11=:
1. Download "4G LTE Switch" from PlayStore
2. Run the app (does not require special permissions).
3. Go to "Set preferred network type” and choose LTE/GSM.
4. In the upper corner go to "Set Radio Band" and choose "USA Band".
5. Restart and enjoy LTE and 3G in Argentina...
