I m from pune and,Recently I activated airtel 3g in my samsung galaxy ace... Bt problem is that I m not getting 3g signal.
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!

How to review frequency of operator for 3g..
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

K gr8 ..jst 2 questions how to downgrade back to froyo 2.2.1 I mean steps... And secondly does 2.3.4 gives any problem I mean any hangs, etc...
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

Hi.
I bought ace S5830 from USA (and this phone only support 850/1900 Mhz), but i live in Azerbaijan and here I use mobile operator sim that only have 2100 mhz band for 3G network. Logically, my phone can not connect to 3G network. My question,
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
Information on device(s): I have 2 Brand New HTC EVO 3D GSM PG86300 models bothe fully unlocked; Botrh with unlocked Bootloader and Both s-off, 1 fully Rooted and the other reday to begin root, but stoped just before Full root.
The device that is fully rooted got bricked 2 days ago, and I have been upside down in the threads, but have not found any answe to actually restoring this problem. I did not fully root the other, which I may need to just to extract files and use them to restore the bricked device.
What happened?, Like a jackass I thunmbed the wrong command while in root explorer and executed a script whick in return showed me a Black screen that was stuck and displayed at the bottom "SD Card SAfe To Remove" ?????? Finally I pulled the battery out and it gave me the HTC White Screen and has Fingered me ever since. I have loaded the PGimg86.zip for update, it updated, I changed the name of the file in Revolutionary by mounting the USB to PC the device as instructed, Nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also formated / deletedmy cache. I have recovered everything I could. I have used the other SD Card to fix the loading issue, but Nothing.
My goal was to finish the processes and the Flash the device to also be able to use or Roam on the Sprint / Boost Network as the APN list does not recognize the Network Operator for that Carrier being that it is the only Carrier that APN's have to be Flashed.
The device was already recognizing SIM Cards from all Networks except Sprint / Nextel / Boost. This would be a similar running process on a BB 8350i, as I have completed to work on Both. BTW, the IDEN Network is nothing more than 800Mhz so Please do not advise me on the IDEN issue as it is a CAVE signal. What I need is the Phone Back to either Factory Reset or Original Carrier info. I can start a new and maybe, just Maybe, someone can figure out what to do in order to Script the PRL of SPrint / Nextel / Boost on these devices instead of the PG86100 model as it is a Tri-Band with a GSM Chip and virtually is the same in a sense except the PG86300 has a SIM Slot and can run on any signal as a Quad-Band out there. I have reviewed The International options of setting up the APN with GSM on Sprint, but unless it recognizes the Network Operator, It is not worth the instructions that where lsted.
Carrier: Rogers in Canada Roaming in the United States to Local area on GSM. Unlocked to accept all other Carriers but list above. First need to unbrick one of the devices and get it to boot again.
S.O.S. PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEE HHHHEEEELLLLPPP HELP, Thanks, prose072
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Bricked?
If you are not able to boot it using flashboot to get into recovery then it is probably bricked. You can always take it to a sprint store and see if they can fix it.
It's Not a Sprint Phone It's an PG86300 Not 100

It's Not a Sprint Phone It's an PG86300 Not 100, It's the International Model GSM Quad Band, Not Tri-Band (Never leave home without a SIM SLUT / Card ) Dual GSM/CDMA device
This is the GSM Model. I have restored it to boot with an Direct exe file, but now I new to have it recognize the sim card as it says limited network. (????)
I will put the fix up for others with the same model here. I do need to find the link where this was moved to so I can answer the initial question(SSSS).
Thanks for replying. As soon as I get some other things complete I will have full time to re-address this problem later this evening.
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#*#*

Hi guys , i dunno if this is the right section for this question but i'm a newbie here , i got two sm-g925r7 locked to nTelos i think and i want to unlock them for international gsm use outside the u.s , is this possible ? if yes do you know a guy who can do them at a reasonably price ? since this can work on sprint cdma phones i don't see why it can't work on nTelos since they are both cdma ? correct me if i'm wrong , i need your help guuuuuys please.
How do you know if they're locked to nTelos? Did you try putting in another carrier's Sim card? Uru
nothing happens
i know couse i bought them on ebay and the sellers stated that in their description , and the sm-g925r7 is for cspire or ntelos only ? i tried using a foreign sim card , ( i'm outside the u.s ) and nothing happens , phones search for network 2-3 secs and then they just show that little barred signal icon on the top right corner
Well on the nTelos website it says all android phones are unlocked so I dont know.

Ok I'll root using the sprint rooting as I've tried this before with success, but first I'll downgrade them to 5.1.1 and hopefully i'll get past this ,since the settings will be set to lte/gsm why wouldn't it work with calls ?

I hope flashing to sprint version or trying with different bootloader / modems could be the solution, I have not found any guide yet
Ok so i rooted the phone and used root explorer to enable service mode , restarted the phone , opened service mode and selected lte/gsm only , restart , phone asks for sim pin and then nothing , no data sms or calls
I am also interested in this unlock but haven't found a solution yet.

after enabling lte/gsm only, restart and go to settings > network mode > select lte/wcdma/gsm. try with different carriers and 4G sim cards to get signal (mine is working on Claro only, other carriers show "Searching" or "No service" )
If this is the go25r7wwu3cpc1 how did you root?? I'm on firmware 6.0.1 can't find root anywhere..

you tryed to unlock with z3x box?
g925r7 is currently not listed in Z3X box support list.
need rmt_storage patch to make changes to bands inside the phone.
inside item 1787 (3G GSM bands), this item has no support.
Reason why it doesn't work for calls is because VOLTE is not enabled by default in CSC
usually a device like this will fall back to 3G when making calls on GSM networks. Thus the reason why calls aren't working.
