[Q] Can't connect to HSDPA network - Nokia Lumia 920

Hi.
I'm from Spain and I bought a Nokia Lumia 920 from UK. Everything works fine but I have a problema with HSDPA networks. With my Lumia 800 when I have HSDPA signal, the phone displays "H" on the top and the connection speed was fine, but with the Lumia 920 it shows "3G" and the conection is slower than the Lumia 800. For a seconds, with the mobile data enable, the cellular data connection icons dissapears but not the signal strength icon. Once I saw the "H" icon, but it dissapears quickly. I saw the specifications and the Lumia 920 from UK supports all of spanish frequency bands. What can I do to solve it?
Thanks

Hi, I bought a pentaband Rogers Lumia 920 and is currently using it on Wind Mobile. I was having problems with Internet Sharing and data connection, got this app, chose Wind as my active network, and everything went better than expected!

you can not search the app in the app store, you have to go to this link directly.
hope this helps. ^_^
ps. all carrier branded versions have data and internet sharing problems because they set autonetworksearch to 0, downloading this Access Point app will set the settings to match your current carrier. gl

Thanks for answering me.
It didn't work. I found the App on settings but I updated it with that link.
I found one thing. When I turn on "Internet Sharing", everything works fine. The "H" icons appears again. But when I turn off, appears the "3G" icon and dissapears often.

Newbuy question: No [3G] sign... Only [G] or [E]

Hi,
Apologies for this question, but i cant get 3G sign in my mobile, while other Nokia n73 can get it. I updated my radio to v1.43, and still no [3G] sign...
In some areas i get [G] which means GPRS signal, and in other areas i got [E] which i don't know what does it mean... Any ideas??
Thx in advance
E = Edge...
Thanks Madcap... But as far as i know that Edge (EGPRS) is an extended version of GPRS whilst 3G is based on WCDMA.
My question now is why my Nokia n73 Reading always 3G, and my HTC is not reading it??? Is there is something wrong in HTC? or i must do some settings for that one?
Thx

Hello,
You say that your Nokia can receive a 3G signal and the Hermes cannot - are they both using SIM cards from the same provider and if not then do both providers supply a 3G signal where you are trying to use the Hermes?
If you should be able to receive a 3G signal on your current provider then I'd suggest you try the following:
1. Check the settings of the Hermes Phone. Try looking at the band selection setings by going to Settings - [Personal] Phone - Band Tab then checking that the Network type is set to Auto. The screenshot below shows the screen that I mean. If this is set to GSM then change it to Auto and see if that fixes the problem. If not then try...
2. Force use of 3G. Even with Auto selected your Hermes handset may be using 2G because that signal is much stronger than the 3G signal. You can force the handset to try 3G only by using a 3rd party application such as Bandswitch (an excellent product by Daniel Herrero - see his posts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286844&highlight=bandswitch). You can download Bandswitch here: http://commmgrpro.com/_wsn/page2.html. Try using this application to set the handset to 3G and see if that works.
If you should have a 3G signal but none of this helps then it seems you have a problem that may need warranty attention. Is the handset new?
Hope this helps
Hello Tony,
Thank you for your reply. I tried what you advised. Still Cant Capture the 3G signal...
Also, i tried an application called "fieldtest_157.exe". It is described somewhere in this group. I can't find any signal (zero values) for anything related to WCDMA, UMTS, and 3G
This is weird.. I just went into settings>phone .. and there is no BAND tab.. wtf?

Hi Mike,
Have added this reg tweak. It added WCDMA & a couple of protocols in the band section of phone settings. Non of them is working... Is it possible that my radio has a problem? I'm using GPRS very well, and i have excellent GSM connections... What could be the problem?

Big problem with internet... need help.

Hi,
I have my new Nokia Lumia 800
SIM unlocked but TIM branded (Italy)
I am in Bulgaria and the operator doesn't have auto settings for internet (for this model).
I am putting them manually as the people from the mobile operator said, also written in the website.
But there is no connection!
Just Wi-Fi...
Is it because of the TIM? I know there is no logic but...
Also from the mobile operator told me that there must be some setting in the Zune when I connect the device with the computer
Please help me, I realy need my mobile internet
Yes, that approach will not work.
Get your phone on wi-fi, got into the marketplace and open "Nokia Collection". Download "Network Setup". It will set your APN's for both data and mms. Hopefully it understands your carrier and can obtain the settings.
This worked for me, I had the same issue as my phone was set for Three in the UK but I am on o2.
I have TIM version too and it works with all operators here in Serbia. JUst download app suggested and it will work
Thank you guys!
You are awesome.. just like the Lumia
Just one more.. what are the symbols for network (3G, EDGE etc.)
Now my phone have "H" next to the signal bars.
H is short from HDSPA. It is know as 3G+ on some Samsung models and it is the highest speeed you can get
Thanks, I found what are the symbols meaning by the way...
Sorry for the stupid question

[Q] LUMIA 710 Network Setup to work on ATT

i have a recently unlocked lumia 710 that i am trying to use on ATT vs TMobile. the phone dials out and gets SMS, but no MMS or data. all the plans are correct, i called ATT and Nokia, but none can help with editing the network settings now that the Network Setup APP is missing from Marketplace.
I was wondering if there was some other work around? does anyone have a developer app that can edit these settings?
I am hoping there is something i can do outside of the network setup app to edit these settings.
and i know this is a lumia 900 thread, but there is no lumia 710 group/thread.
Same issue for Lumia 900 users on ST
I am also wondering about this.
I have a Lumia 900 on Straight Talk. On the Lumia 800 there was a setting in the diagnostic app (##634#) that would let one add an APN. Maybe that's available on the 710.
If there is anyone in the UK that has the Lumia 900, I would kindly ask you to try this and to see if you can add APN's on Tango, as we cannot on Mango. Therefore we prepaid users don't get MMS functionality.

Change the APN. For AT&T this one should work:
Username:[email protected]
Password:CINGULAR1
Save the settings, turn the phone off and then turn it back on. Maybe some other AT&T users using Windows Phone without LTE can confirm.
For Straight Talk see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603388
Although this phone lacks a forum on XDA, the Lumia 710 is a "cheaper" version of Lumia 800, hence /moved Lumia 800 General
Cheers

HSDPA/HSPA/3G mode for Lumia 800

Good day team. Does anybody here knows how to overide connectivity setting for lumia 800 to just connect to a 3g network rather that the device automatically select the best signal strength. In my case i have the EDGE network stronger in signal in my area compared to 3g and as we all know data in edge is slow i would just like to know if you happen to stumble upon a settings to overide it.
Type ##3282#. Then via settings change to 3g only mode.

[Q] No 3G, no EDGE, no data

Dear Sirs!
I have read the similar topics, but it does not apply, since people at least get 2G data.
My carrier uses 900 Mhz (only) for their 3G - is there any way at all to make that work on the Omate smartwatch?
Their Edge is also on 900 or 850 Mhz, and even that is not working (no E icon shows ever, with full signal).
When I tap the option Access Point Names I only get blank screen.
My watch is the new EU edition, I only got it now, but without data it is useless
I would really appreciate some help!
Kind regards.
One part solved...
Apparently the blank screen for APN was hiding the menu accessible only with swiping.
So now I do have the Edge connection.
I still wonder - is there any app or a way to enable 3G via 900mhz on this watch?
I am still non-rooted btw.
