[Q] How to on 3g In samsung galaxy ace

In samsung galaxy 3 there are options like dual mode/3g mode,bt in galaxy ace when I go in mobile networks there are this options : enable packet data, data roaming, access point name, mobile operator, use only 2g networks.according to airtel customer care I should chk on enable packet data and unchk on use only 2g network options I did so bt still can't get 3g,signals..
I tried to use 3g signals in many places in pune..bt still I m jst,getting edge connection
Are you sure there is 3G network? If so, did you make sure that in APN list there is the one provided by your carrier for 3G ?

Have you checked your APN settings?
Uncheck 2g mode only. If still you not see 3g symbol at left side of signal then in network setting go network operators and search available networks and choose airtel 3g.if still not get then go into keypad and type *#*#4636#*#* and select option phone imformation and in that you see gsm auto selected. In that choose wcdma only and press turn off radio then press turn on radio now press home button(not back button). You will get 3g. If not then reboot. I hope this will help you
You are using the wrong ROM or MODEM file with a Band Operator that's not supported for your company. Review the frecuency of your operator for 3G. Then, flash your phone with the correct ROM.
Hello everybody!
I installed the rom version 2.3.4 (vivo - Brazil) in my galaxy s5830L (3g 850/1900MHz). My mobile carrier works with 3G 2100MHz, so I can not connect to 3G only 2G (edge​​).
Do you know if there is any possibility to enable 2100MHz in s5830L 3G?
Thank you!

And one more thing when I tried with same sim card in same area on samsung monte I immediately got 3g signal jst after selecting 3g mode..so I want to know do u still think there is a problem with rom....
Hey I tried ur method of dialing that code and then changing it to WCDMA mode ..after selecting this option for some time in status it shows no connection like a white circle with cross line in it and after few seconds it again shows Edge connection ..and again u enter that code in that network type option it again automatically gets change to gsm auto!!
Now I m really getting frustrated by this problem I called Samsung helpline they said for using 3g in some mobiles u have to do a Software Update in Samsung Service centre after which u will get that 3g/dual network mode option in ur Mobile network settings like other mobiles, bt I doubt if they can really help me bcozz about 2 months ago I had already done a Firmware update earlier its version was KC1 and after update its version is KC7 which i think is the latest version of Firmware available in India for Samsung galaxy ace. I said this to Samsung technical Support but they say that Software update and Firmware Update are completely Differnet things…
So I want to know whether this Software update and Firmware update are this realy different Or its same. I have also Noticed one more thing in “Samsung galaxy Fit “also there is no Option like 3g/dual Network mode to Enable 3g!! is that option diabled in all galaxy Ace & Fit models or is it only in my cell???

After selecting wcdma only turnoff radio and again turn on radio then push middal button called home button. When you doesnt want 3g mode tick on 2g mode only.
I also suffer from same problem when i use bsnl3g. You should camplain in airtel servise center because it is not fault of mobile but fault of network provider. If you want to chek then insert other sim and uncheck on 2g only and select access poit . If you get 3g then your mobile is not in fault. I want to know that you get 2g internet on that airtel card? And you choose access point?if not then select access point

dude i think u are not reading my posts completely..i can say this bcozz right from my first post of this thread i m mentioning that with same sim card of airtel i m getting edge connection..and the problem is not with sim card its with cell itself bcozz when i tried same sim card in other mobile i immediately got 3g signal in same area..that bcozz after lots of search on google i saw that many are facing this problem of 3g not connecting..its due to a software bug in froyo 2.2.1 so people say only way to solve this problem is we will have to upgrade our froyo to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 this might solve our problems bt still i have some queries which i have to clear like see if u can ans them :
1. which one will be better to go with android 2.3.3 Gingerbread or 2.3.4 Gingerbread for Samsung galaxy ace I mean which one has less problems and will solve my 3g problem!!
2. after unofficially upgrading to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 will I be able to officially upgrade to 2.3.5 through kies in future.
3. For upgrading to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 is it necessary to root the phone..
4. how much time does a whole upgrade process takes if my internet speed is Minimum 1Mbps…
5. How to come back to 2.2.1 Froyo Default version from 2.3.3 or 2.3.4(Steps with video or Img link will be very helpful)
Update to 2.3.4 is realy easy and not require root. You should first download 2.3.4 flash file and after download use odin to install flash file. When official update comes you can downgrade your phone to froyo so kies update it to latest version so chill.
My email is [email protected]
contact me i will explain you how to update to 2.3.4 and where to download

2.3.4 not hang atall. It remove lags from many games. I use it from 2 months and not get any problem. So just update. And abowt downgrade i post in my blog tomorrow. I hope you undarstand because you need to flash two firmware to get ddkc1(indian firmware)firmware back. So wait for that. But i ensure you that you will not downgrade in near future because gingerbread rocks

1.is it possible change the band?
2. If it is possible, how we can change, upgrade to new firmware ?
p.s. I have upgraded it to GINGERBREAD.UBKP7
Please help me to solve these issue,
Thank you before hand.
plese help me with problem above

[Q] 3G,EDGE,GPRS dont work on i5500 after flash

I briked my phone recently" after instaling chainfire 3D",i dont know what ROM version i had before that but i used ODIN to recover my phone ussing another version of ROM.I managed to find FROYO 2.2 available(support) for my country( Romania),but i noticed that mobile network is not working anymore(except Wi Fi),
before this mess the 3G ,GPRS or EDGE signal was present and i have the option to turn on or off the mobile connection,but now i cant do that anymore and i dont have 3G signal anymore,and I dont know why because i have the correct settings in APN. In "About phone" / "status" i have the following values:Mobile network type: UMTS or GPRS from time to time, and for Mobile network state is DISSCONECTED or Connecting from time to time.When i long press the end call button the Phone option appears and when i chose Mobile Network option (Connect to internet is OFF) it does nothing....Can anyone help me in this problem ?,some say that there is a secret code for service that test the 3G conecction but i dont belive that......?..For this reason(problem) i installed four different versions of ROM,and my best option is to manage to find a solution for the current ROM that i have)Sorry for my english or for my posible double post...
I found the official stock ROM i had before and fixed the problem with 3G signal,Is very important to use the correct ops file,i used EUROPA_I5508_v1.0.ops(because i'm an idiot) and the one i needed was EUROPA_I5500_v1.0.ops and i think that is one of the reason for the lost of 3G signal.

SIM locked after flashing stock firmware. Reunlock

So basically what has happened is I have flashed my phone back to stock firmware from here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012938&highlight=2+1+1+a+0+6) (because I bricked it, and now it no longer lets me connect to the Network(Telecom XT NZ))
Why does it not let me connect to the network anymore. Other Networks still do work though (2Degrees, Vodafone).
Is there a way to fix this(unlock, without having to pay)?
And also if I was to do the code thing, could I install custom firmware (eg. MiniCM7) and then use codes?
EDIT:
It seems that the phone can simply no longer connect to 850mhz frequencys (which is what XT use). XT also use 2100mhz which I can connect to but is very limited.
I don't know if this means it is locked. But the XT sim card does work in some places where the 2100mhz frequency broadcasts. So maybe not a SIM lock.
Exactly what it says at the moment is "No service. Selected Network (Telecom NZ) unavailble"
The phone I think should still work somehow shouldn't it since it was already unlocked when bought and after flashing the firmware it no longer does.
EDIT 2:
After reading this:
http://www.ben.geek.nz/2009/06/a-question-which-phones-can-i-use-on-xt-and-vodafone/
Somehow I have changed the phone from a 850/2100 phone to a 900/2100 all through a flash of a UK Firmware 2.1.1.A.0.6. If this is true, then should I be able to find a firmware to flash it back to 850/2100 phone?
EDIT 3:
Starting to figure this out.
My idea is the phone was originally a U20a and I flashed a U20i firmware !!
Downloading U20a firmware now.. I think this should work !
EDIT 4:
Using the AUS U20a firmware from..
Check my post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=777660&page=5
The phone perfectly now !!.
Thanks for the help guys :L

[Q] Loaded phone to stock 2.3.5, now it's kind of broken

I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 and I flashed a Stock 2.3.5 Rom to my phone because I screwed up flashing a previous Rom. The Rom I flashed appears to be defaulted to Poland, I managed to change the language, but for some reason I can't get any Cell reception, I am unable to send texts or make phone calls. I checked the CSC and it is: XEO - Poland (Plus, Era, Heyah, Orange, Play). I don't know much about phones but this appears to be an issue since I don't live anywhere near Poland.
I have a Telus Sim card but it appears as if my phone can't connect to their network. Additionally, before flashing this Rom I was pretty sure that my only option in Network Operators was Telus, but now I have Telus and CAN Rogers Mobile INC. When I attempt to select Telus from this list it says "Registering on TELUS..." for around 2-3 minutes then says "Unable to connect to network, try again"
I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
When I go to About Phone>Status it says..
Network: Unknown
Mobile Network Type: UMTS
Service State: Out of Service
Roaming: Not roaming(although this appears to switch on and off, despite me being well within Telus coverage.)
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
Android Version: 2.3.5
Baseband version: S5830XWKS2
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-perf-CL654989
[email protected] #1
Build number: Gingerbread.XWKS9
Do I have to install a Telus Canadian version of the stock firmware for 2.3.5 or could I possibly install stock firmware for 2.3.4 and update it through kies to get the appropriate CSC?(My phone is able to connect to Samsung kies)
I don't care if my phone has 2.3.4 or 2.3.5, either one would be fine with me.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated, ask me any and all questions.
MAJOR EDIT
I put *#7465625# into my phone to check the Network Lock and Sim Lock's and it turns out
Network Lock [ON]
Network Subset Lock [OFF]
SP Lock [ON]
CP Lock [ON]
Does this mean that I can't connect to to the network because there is a lock on it? If this is right I assume I need to go to Telus and have them unlock it, right?
Edit: I phoned *#2263# to get into a frequency selection screen and I selected: WCDMA Band Preference>WCDMA 850
Telus runs on 850/1900, I have the option to choose 1900, and the option to choose all(850/900/1800/1900/2100), there's also an option to choose "Automatic", should I stick with running 850, or risk running automatic and have it randomly jump around for unknown reasons? I know 850 will work in most areas I go, so it wouldn't be a serious drawback.
I think it's best to use the Telus firmware.....
Herpderp Defy.
I'm not entirely certain, but I don't think Telus has any official Firmware that the public has access to. If you have found any that would be appreciated, but as far as I'm aware, companies don't put that kind of thing out into the general public.
On Telusmobilitys site if you go to the section to update software I can see Samsung Galaxy Ace on the list but it says 2.3.4 and there are no available updates, which means I can't update it through that method.
Is the CSC being different an issue or just a small annoyance?

I don't think I clarified this in the op, there is only one option in the CSC list, which is XEO, Poland, I presume I need a Telus CSC, however, using the list found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163
I can't find one that would work for a Telus phone.
Edit: My phones Network is now connected to "TELUS" and Service State is "In Service" but I still have to send messages 3-4 times before they finally say sent, sometimes taking up to 3 minutes to send a simple message.
If anyone knows any way to fix this I'd greatly appreciate it.

[Q] Galaxy Alpha G850A (AT&T - Lollipop5.0.2) issue

Hey guys, recently I've got an Alpha SM-G850A which is for AT&T. I live in Iran and the phone has been unlocked to work here, I was trying to get the Android Lollipop 5.0.2 for my phone. so first I tried to get the update from AT&T software update by phone, but it says that there seems to be no updates available for me, nevertheless on the net the guys claim that they've got the update, is it due to my location in Iran and my internet IP? (I used VPN too but again, no updates). I tried to get the firmware from Sammobile.com too, but there were no firmwares detected for SM-G850A. Can someone help please?:good::good:
BTW, I've got the cellular data from my operator, and it works, but I can't select which type I wanna use (2G, 3G or 4G). I mean there's no options in the phone settings to select the data connection type. NEED HELP!

Even tho the phone is working on other networks you will still need an at&t sim card to update it. There is no way around this as far as i know.
Type below code in dialer and select Device information. Now, if you scroll down you will have the option to change network type.
Code:
*#*#4636#*#*
