I want to buy an HTC desire unlocked, and heard u can get monthly rates with rogers, i am curious though, are there any restrictions in the form of punishment for not bending over to annual contracts? as in crappier and slower performance on the 3 g network or some luxuries being cut off of some sort? what are the rates usually for data plans?
View 3 RepliesMy Telus Desire is unlocked, rooted, and running on Rogers. With the stock ROM the 3G worked perfectly, everything was great.Now, I've flashed the phone with the proper radio for Froyo, got the proper SLCD Clockworkmod Recovery working, and flashed Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 RC2.Everything works great, but for some reason 3G isn't working at all. I've got the APN setup correctly for Rogers (internet.com, wapuser1, wap, blah blah blah), but still no dice. Data is turned on in the settings, but for some reason it isn't working. There's never any icon to represent it up top either.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have had the Desire (unlocked on Rogers for about 2 weeks and it has worked well in Toronto. I seem to get data from from HSPA, 3G and Edge (get Hs, 3Gs and Es on the notification bar). I arrived yesterday in Thunder Bay and cannot get any data there. I have called Rogers and they have reset the data or whatever they do but no change. I have checked all my APN settings, ensured that I have checked to use mobile connections and done a hard reset of the phone. Nothing works. I not that I have a choice of WCDMA, GSM or auto WCDMA or GSM. I cannot set this on WCDMA without it reverting to the auto position. I suspect that Thunder Bay may have no 3G service and my phone is not dropping to 2G although my experience in Toronto suggests otherwise.
I flew to Kenora tonight and we stopped briefly in Fort Frances where I was able to connect to the Dryden Municpal Telephone System GSM network. The E lit up and it appeared that data was being sent but it didn't get through. This seemed to eliminate the possibility that the radio is simply dead. Incidentally, bluetooth and wifi are working fine as is the voice radio. I have seen it suggested on redflagdeals.com that I need to have the phone rooted to get access to 2G as this was blocked by Telus. I would appreciate anyone's input on this issue. I will be spending 3 or 4 months in Thunder Bay over the next while and need data access. If rooting the phone will do the trick, then I will need to get someone to do it for me as I am a little reluctant to try that myself.
I recently unlocked a Rogers Bold 9700 and began using it with my Fido sim card. I added a small data plan to my current services from Fido but I am not receiving any data. I have called Fido 3 times and they can't seem to do anything. They gave me their APN settings and I have input them manually and still no data.

I have APN settings but the problem is There is nowhere to put in the port setting.I had it sending photos at one point even though the phone was telling me the message was not sent but cannot receive any mms.
View 1 Replies View Relatedtoday I picked up a rough looking Bold 9000 and swapped in my spare parts onto it. The catch is, it was a Bell phone. I already unlocked it and it states it is on rogers network now. I don't want the Bell logo/wallpapers to load upon startup, so I though by installing FW Version 5.0.1626 from the blackberry Rogers download page it would fix it.The software update just finished(about 10-15 min) and I see a bell background and bell startup logo. Should the Rogers FW change this over? or are the bell wallpapers/startup logo's programmed into the phone itself and NOT the FW?I don't want to remove the Logo completely, I just rather have it say ROGERS like my old BB and have all the rogers software/configuration.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHey guys ! so umm I got an Iphone 3gs last night.APPS are unreal but I am not really impressed with their whole email set up. So anyways I am looking to get a storm the 9550. I need some help as to from who I should be getting it.I am currently with Rogers and I can't cancel my plan with them. If I buy an unlocked one from Telus will the Rogers 3G work on it ? What American providers will work on the Rogers frequency so I can get 3G coverage ?I know the Verizon one is out of the question as it runs on different frequencies.

Yes, I know the Nexus is available for AT&T, but for those who are interested in the Desire this may be interesting -Now, my question is...would the Telstra version work on AT&T's network and catch 3G? I know that SIM unlocked Desires are going to be shipped out in the next few weeks (I myself have ordered one), but if there is a possibility that the Telstra version would work...it would definitely be worth looking into

But question is, will my tzones work like it does on my HD2 Android?
I was tempted to get another HD2, but for the price difference between the two, i may just op for getting the Desire instead.I did a search on the forum for "Desire HD Tzones" and all links seem to point to the HD2 instead.. Can anyone verfiy it works on their Desire HD?
Phone is doing great, except the screen time out does not work. It did when I first had it but not any more, so the problem is the screen stays on until I push the power button to put it into sleep mode.

View 4 Replies View RelatedFirst let me start by saying that I do know what I am doing I have a 3G which I have unlocked and take regularly with me to France when I come here for work and I just swap the ATT SIM with the SFR SIM and everything works.This time around I took a 3GS, that is from FR Orange that I have JB and unlocked and works with the ATT SIM in the US no problem. Except that when I got here in France this time around (without my 3 G ) I popped the SIM in and I get what you guys see in the screen shot, the network is found but the bars are horizontal so I get no reception at all. The SIM still works if I try it in another phone. I don't know if ATT still works on the phone since their signal is so spotty here and I just get no service with that SIM here -- I really don't see why it would have stopped working either.I have read every thread on what I think are similar issues but nothing works. I cannot redo the j/b unlock from here since the computer that I use to sync with is back home and I would be without all my music for the rest of the journey and my trip back home. Please let me know if someone has ideas.

My son is visiting Las Vegas this month and was thinking of buying an unlocked 3GS i phone. Will it work in the UK. I know the charger adaptor will be different but as we have an i pad the charger for that will work so thats not a problem. Just wondered if there were any other issues which we should consider.

I bought a used iphone4 in the US. It was supposed to be an officially unlocked phone (BB 04.11.08) and I verified this by inserting a T-Mobile US sim card - I saw the network name on the screen, so I was positive that i was not screwed up. When I returned to Europe with the phone, I put a T-Mobile Hungary SIM card in it - and it didn't work: Invalid SIM card... Can it be still locked? Is there something like a region lock? If I have not seen the TMO US sim card working, I would be sure that this phone is still locked to AT&T..

If I purchase the XPRT and unlock it, will it work on AT&T or is it blocked from using the US GSM carriers like the Droid Pro?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Orange Blackberry 9700 which I have had unlocked. The phone is unlocked and reads the T-mobile SIM card, however I am having no luck at all with email and data facilities on the Blackberry.I have contacted T-Mobile and they have attemepted to send the service books to me however they are not reaching me. They have been through a whole host of procedures to try and get the problem sorted including doing a security wipe and also restoring the email accounts, I have tried to send the service books to myself through the BIS website as well.
It seems odd that I can not connect to the Blackberry Wireless Network because I my device pin is recognised on the T-Mobile website. I have tried to register the device using Host Routing Table but still no joy.If you have any clue as to why I can not access data services then I would really appreciate some help. I do have my data plan enabled, I know sometimes this can be a reason why people have this problem.
I jumped ship over at Fido a while back and got myself a free LG GW300 before I left with my Fido Dollars. I've unlocked it successfully and can place a roaming AT&T sim card (3G version) into it and it works perfect.The moment I put a Bell sim card into, I get a no sim present error message. Same thing happens on a Mobilicity sim (although I expected them to remain in EDGE roaming due to the phones radio ability)? why a regular Bell 3G sim card won't work in this phone? Any special additional unlock I need to do maybe?I got two codes for my unlock- a Network Unlock, and a Service Provider unlock. I only had to use the Network code to make the AT&T roaming sim work.
