Hi all,
Just received my Atom mgw life, upgraded it to the latest ROM from MGW's site, it's running mobile 6 pro.
I popped in the AT&T sim from my tilt into the atom and first see that the auto configure has no option for the united states...
any idea how I can update that? or...
I do have a signal from AT&T my provider with my sim but I need the 3g config if someone has it including any necessary proxy setup.
Guess I need to do it manually
I have a strong signal on the atom with the sim but when I dial my sim phone number no ring on the atom..
any suggestions? Thank you!

The phone will not even receive or send a call yet it shows bars and says "3G" as if all is well.....AT&T did not know...they said the sim is fine.....phone is new....any suggestions anyone?
When I try to make a call the bars disapear, auto hangs up 3g disapears and I then get a "no service" message.
Appreciate any suggestions! Thanks

Hi there, I am wondering if it is possible for the XDA to work in Australia. I have the upgraded rom from Xda devellopers and have removed the sim lock, but it dosen't seem to pick up the Aus networks.
Any help would be great
What for device are you using? PW10A or PW10B?
Maybe it's a problem with the GSM-networks. PW10A is for 900/1800MHz and PW10B for 900/1900
Have you tried to search manual for any available services?
Stefan
How do I find out the PW10a or b info.... The other version info is as follows
ROM Version; 3.17.03 ENG
Radio Version; 4.21.00
Protocol Version ; 32s54
Sorry, found it....PW10A1
I am guessing no one has any help or info about this. what a wasted purchase.
The XDA/XDA II/XDA III (IIs) do work in Australia.
Where is your XDA from, country? What network are you trying to connect too down here?
I have been told it is from the UK. I purchased it 3rd hand so I can only go by what the previous owner has told me.
In the auto config screen, I get the options for 02 network from UK, Ireland, De and a few others.
I am wanting to connect it to an Optus network preferrably, but any would do.
I have tried Optus (plan and prepaid) and telstra plan, but no signal shows up.
Just clarifying, you have tried Optus and Telstra phone services or data services?
You verified the SIM's worked in another phone?
The sims are able to be swapped into various phones, I have a panasonic gd50, a nokia 7250 and a motorola v600, and an ericson (can't remember what model) and they all work in each other.
The sims are set up as phone service, ie: normal mobile usage, I have even tried an optus prepaid in it.
I am only wanting to use it for the phone service, gprs and net usage is not of interest as yet.
Howdy, I have the same model and it works fine on Telstra. I originally had problems with SIM lock and GID lock, but after upgrading to 2003 from lumpistefans kitchen I've had no problems with it! Good reception and minimal drop out. It's not a waste of money. The ROM i used was the O2 one and did not use the auto config, it finds it for itself and aknowledges the telstra network fine. If you go to an Optus shop they should be able to help, they also have pretty good phone help and should be able to talk you through the settings,
Good luck!
Peace,
Robert
Thanks Ryap. I am thinking that it should automatically find the network tho......is this not the case
I know on XDA II and PDA2K you can select the network or set it to Automatic. Might want to check this setting.
SETTINGS > PERSONAL TAB > PHONE > NETWORK TAB

I think you are confusing the autoconfig of the device with the network setup for the phone.
You can cancel the autoconfig that appears at the end of a hard reset. This just gives you some quick settings for the GPRS and MMS networks - you can add these later after talking to Optus.
Once the SIM is in, you need to make sure the phone is on by switching OFF flight mode. This kicks the phone in. Then if Optus is not picked up as your default network you just go into Settings>Phone>Network and then use the Find Network button and then the Set Networks button. After that you can check the Automatic Network selection button to make the settings stay.

Hi all, thanks for the support so far,
As of now, I can't get any network at all....still.
when i insert the sim and enable the phone it says serching, but thats about it.
I have no idea where to find the flight mode, and when I click on the phone in the settings screen, nothing happens.
I don't get any carrier name or logo come up and appear.
Cheers
Michael
On XDA II (don't have XDA) when the phone senses a service it puts four vetical bars next to the speaker/volume icon at the top of the screen. If you tap the bars it should bring up a pop-up, this is where there should be a line (link) to click on that says "Turn off flight mode". I am not sure if this is part of the original XDA though.
When you clicked on the PHONE icon under SETTINGS it didn't do anything?
At the top bar, next to the speeker, I have a tree type logo and when i tap it it says searching. When i open the phone and then click options, it freezes for about 5 maybe 7 mins and then the settings screen opens, from there it freezes and i can't select anything
Hi all.
I am greatful for you help and support up till now.
I have managed to fixmy problem.
When putting the xda devellopers rom on the pda, ther eis an option calledGSM Band in the programs list.
Well turns out it was set to 900, so i changed it to 900/1800 and rebooted the xda.
WELL HEY PRESTO, IT FOUND THE OPTUS NETWORK
So all is good and all works.
As I mentioned before I am greatful for all the support and thankyou to all who racked their brains over this.
Hi
I have my nice new SGS2 but there is no option for network roaming, only data roaming. In order for me to use orange network i need to re-scan and select tmobile/orange, but only get "G" data connection. When i rescan and select Tmobile i get full "H" data connection. Is this normal or am i missing a setting where it will automatically switch. I have set it to automatically but it does not switch between the two. (it's a PAYG O2 handset but unlocked)
Any ideas or will i just have to switch it all the time. Not a real problem as its onyl in my place of work that t-mobile signal is awful yet orange is fine.
Thanks
I think Everything Everywhere rolled out to everyone automatically but by the sounds of it you were missed out. As you're on T-Mobile you can sign up here:
http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/share/
For anyone on Orange, sign up here:
https://kareena.orange.co.uk/signal/
Also, if you haven't ticked the data roaming then tick it! You won't move to any other network than Orange in the UK. Just remember to turn it off when you leave the country.

Done that but still it does not switch to orange when i have no t-mobile signal. If i do it manually it shows great orange signal....just does not automatically switch...
It won't switch automatically if there is a T-Mo signal available no matter how weak or strong.
Or is there no signal available to you with T-Mobile?

I can't say for the SGS2 but I can tell you how it is on my Hero, and im guessing it should be same on the SGS2 as its an Android setting ...
If you're on T-Mobile, as I am, then scan your network and select "T-Mobile" only and tick the Data Roaming option. That's the only option you need and it's the only option available. This should then automatically switch over to Orange only when you can't access a T-Mobile signal. You'll know its done it as your network will be displayed as Orange as opposed to T-Mobile.
This is how it works on my phone and it works fine. It should be the same on the SGS2 as well.
Also apparently you'll only get "G" or "E" connections on the Orange signal. That's all they are allowing at the moment.
Hi, I have a Hero and that switches fine but the sgs2 will just show no network when i lose tmobile and not switch to orange. I see that if i get orange manually i will only get "G", its just the automatic switching does not seem to work. Checked tmobile web site and they dont have internet settings for the phone yet, but do have mms/sms settings...maybe in june when they release it they will update the settings and ill be able to down load.

They aim to do 3G roaming at some point in the future but for now it's EDGE only on data.
My network currently (ie when I drag down notification bar) is 'Orange T-mobile'
Sent from my Galaxy S2 using XDA App
Im on t-mobile and mine seems to auto switch without setting anything. A few days ago I remember it saying orange but most the time it says t-moble.
PS: the other day I found out my phone had been emergancy calls only for neely 24hrs the only way i could get signal again was to turn it off and on so dont know if that had anything to do with it messing up when it tryed to change
I have Orange provide HTC Mozart, updated to latest update (7390). Recently got the unlocking code from Orange, entered it, works OK.
However, I noticed that with Orange SIM it receive both 3G and 2G signals but with any other operator SIM it only receive 3G signals, NO 2G signals.
Any idea what's wrong?
are you worried because your phone gets the best signal?! probably other operators provide better 3G signal and your phone automatically chooses the 3G.. I think you can choose not to receive 3G signal in the mobile network settings..
Hi, no I tested it with 3G signal off but the phone is not catching any 2G signal except orange 2G.
is there any way entering the code again?
may i need to enter code manually for the 2G carriers?

GO into the HTC APPS into the marketplace u Will find it
yes u Will choose the carrier & if u change for an another Sim carrier then u Will have to launch This app again(Just One time for the App cofigure your network)
if u keep the same sim carrier it Will select the network forever
I found "Connection Setup" in HTC Apps and tried that, seems like it's the same you're referring to. I tried it but no luck. I think the unlock code only unlock the SIM but not the carriers.
Hi
My phone is Star OneM92 dual sim Chinese S3 clone running 4.1
I'm experiencing a problem with my Virgin (UK) sim. The phone is automatically throwing it in to roaming mode. The "r" sign comes up at the signal bar.
I've checked with Virgin and they confirm no roaming charges apply as its a domestic sim. Of course when I told them the phone is copy they immediatly threw a fit and I got a lecture how I should never of you one in the first place.
Its dam annoying when I make a call. I have to confirm I want to use a roaming sim.
I've tried different positions and other sim cards from O2 and Vodafone and they work fine.
Can anyone shed any light on to this and advise how I can get around this.
By the way, I know I shouldn't of got a clone and yes I'm a noob and all that. Apologies for my inexperience in advance
have u try using a app from playstore called network
there u can set the phone to only 2g 3g or roaming
or go into settings an sim manager then network an disable roaming

Thanks,
I give it a go and get back when I have the results. In the meantime if anyone has any more info please post
I picked up an unlocked TMo One in New York last week. I used it there with my Norwegian SIM with no problems.
Back home, I get "No Service" using the exact same SIM-card. Using the *#*#INFO#*#*-menu, I can see the SIM-card is recognised because it displays my carrier in the "Current Network" field. I am suspecting the TMo-infused Sense OS to reject my card, since to my understanding the phone is compatible with EU networks. Will i be fine if i flash another ROM, like the stock GPe, and get rid of the TMo-stuff altogheter, or is there another rock in the road here?
I used my Tmobile HTC One with the stock ROM in Norway using a Telenor SIM and in Greece using a Vodafone SIM.
I would make sure you have the proper APN info (I can't remember the appropriate one for the Norwegian carriers). I believe it should work without issues (mine did). If it worked with that SIM card already, it's not locked and it's not rejecting it.
Also, I found that when I returned home to the US, I had to choose Settings -> Mobile Data -> Network Operators and choose Select Automatically (even though it was already chosen). Maybe you need to do that too.
Currently I am running Android Revolution and that also works fine with my Norwegian and TMOUS SIM cards.
Good luck!
Thanks! I've at least made some progress. I tried setting Network Selection to automatic, and got reception, however only for about half a minute. I then tried adding my provider's APN info. This has given me permanent data connection, but still no GSM reception for texts and phone calls. I do get 2g data when in low coverage areas. I am finding this weird. Can anyone shed some light?
Okay. Just wanted to post my latest findings - if others are experiencing the same issue. I've flashed the latest Google Edition RUU, to see if the TMo ROM was causing it. But i still don't get GSM coverage. Data still connected on both 2G and 3G (haven't been within 4G coverage yet..)
When flashing I also updated firmware to latest.
Phone info says Current network: "NetCom" (my home network) GSM service: "Emergency Calls only" (I tested this, and I am able to place the call to emergency services) and GPRS service: "Connected" (I am typing this on my data connection via WiFi-tethering, actually)
The status menu shows this: Service state "Out of service" and My phone number "Unknown".
If anyone can come up with a theory, I am all ears..

Have you tried taking the phone to your provider? Maybe you need an update which or setting which they can provide.
I find it strange that it wouldn't recognize your phone number, usually that's a sign of some type of incompatibility with the phone and the network.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
I have contacted my provider to see if there's anything they can do. But they're playing a little hard to get.. I was afraid there would be an issue with compatibility at first, by since my data connection is all right, I'm not so sure. Also erdelyt above here says he has used the TMo phone in Norway without trouble. He has another provider, however. They run their own network, so I will be trying with one of their SIM cards next, if my provider NetCom aren't of any help. Thanks for your help so far. I'll be posting my findings further!
So, I got to try a Telenor SIM card the other day, and the issue is still there. Although, with that card the phone number was read and displayed in the phone info menu. The owner of the card suggested there was an unlock issue - but I did make calls with my phone and SIM card in the US, so I don't see how that could be.
So that's a small step further, but now I just have to wait to see what my carrier says..
I changed the title for this thread after my findings.. I got a new SIM-card for my carrier, and i got coverage to make one phone call, but after i hung up, it was gone. I am really in the dark here.. It can of course be a hardware fault, but that's a bit strange for an entirely new product..
