LT15i enable wifi & 3G/HSDPA on Orange UK - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Ive just been told by Orange tech support that this phone does not support both 3G/HSDPA and WiFi being active at the same time?! Surely this is wrong?
I have never had the H symbol come up and when WIFI is switched on only 2G is available. Why cant i just leave WiFi on and have it select the best speed automatically?
I also have the Desire S on T-Mobile (T-Mobile and Orange are the same company here in the UK now and use the same towers) and that has the H symbol come up with WiFi active....
Please can someone enlighten me
Cheers Guys

O2 UK 3G help appreciated.

Hello everybody,
I apologise in advance if there exists an answer elsewhere, but I have been searching for the past week to no avail. I'd appreciate if somebody could point me to the right thread/direction.
I upgraded from my stock mda vario2 rom, to the latest schaps (WM6).
Everything works ultra fine but I there is no 3G! I have tried a few different radios and right now i'm on 1.43. I still cannot make video phone calls. The icon is stuck on G. I'm in east london btw.
I believe my O2 uk settings are right though , to te best of my novice knowledge that is.
Again I apologise if this is already addressed in another thread or wiki. Mods, please delete my post if it is a repitition.
Appreciate any help.
Cheers!
you have a tmobile phone or an o2 phone? goto phone settings and check its set to auto
Thanks for the reply,
I have the t-mobile's mda vario2. Tried that already but its still on G.
i have the same problem with an orange 3100. it will only find G not 3G. i have even tried swapping sims but no luck. i have tried all the different settings cabs i can find but no luck
i'm using an orange spv m3100 with no problems on o2uk, and i had 1.43 until yersterday.
o2's signal seems to be inferior to that of orange; i.e. 3g reception not as good
for example i do not get a 3g signal at home on o2, but did on orange, however i do get a 3g signal outside and in other places (on o2)
goggle the site for the field test software.

Call O2 customer service and ask whether you have 3G access activated on your SIM card. I have bought O2 pay as you go SIM card some time ago and it did not access 3G at all, since the very beginning on any 3G phone. Somewhere on the receipt or SIM pack (don't remember now) I've found sth like 'SIM 2G' so that way I figured out card is not meant to log into 3G. But I never bothered to call CS anyway, as I very rarely use that SIM.
Thanks guys,
I'll try all ur suggestions, I did try swapping sims with my wife, hers is an O2 sim which actually has the letter 3G on it, but nope its still Ging on me. I will give O2 a call.

How to re-enable GPRS for HTC Twin1000 (T5399)?

Hi, guys,
I got a HTC T5399 which is said to be Twin 10000, this dual mode phone is on the China market, customized for China Telecom CDMA2000 network, although it also supports WCDMA at the same time according to its brochure.
My problem is that GPRS functionality is disabled deliberately by the manufacturer when I want to use it under WCDMA network with my UK O2 sim card. Of course the voice calls are fine under WCDMA as it's supposed to. When I attempted to establish a new Internet connection, the options of line types are only three types: cellular line, bluetooth and Hayes modem on com port, there is no option of GPRS cellular line available as normal WCDMA 3G phones do. I tried to set up the connection with cellular line anyway but failed to connect to the network.
After googling on the Internet without any progress, I finally have to come here for help, as this website is for the best WM experts in the world. If I can not get it solved with your guys help, I don't think it's possible to sort it out anywhere else.
Thank you very much in advance for your kind support!
Sorry, forgot to let you know, the above device OS is WM6.5, details are
Windows CE 5.2.21869 (Internal version 21869.5.0.82)
Desperately awaiting feedback.....
no solution???
sadly, no one knows?

Defy GSM network stucks in EMERGENCY MODE

Im using a Motorola Defy 2.2 MB525 (rooted)
My location: Mumbai, India.
I have IDEA sim card. Most of the time my phone network gets screwed. I was using Vodafone sim for last 8-9years, but i was facing network problem since i bought DEFY. I thought its network problem due to new vodafone 3G activation.
So I switched to IDEA with 3G. But now same here. I get no network. And if i get network, 3G doesnt gt network.
I asked other IDEA users.. they get full network.. even in washrooms.
But its only me on DEFY with EMERGENCY MODE (RED + sign).
I think its because of the FROYO update. Any HELP ? FIX ?
I hv installed Defy Baseband Switcher, network is stable now.. Hope it works fine, will update soon.
Please if any1 has more fixes feel free to post

[Q] 3G

Hi,
i m using my HTC phone in Mexico with Telcel. I bought a 3G package but I cannot receive the 3G and i m only in edge. I ahve done the configuration that i found in various webpage for Android but it doesn t change. The same thing happens with a Samsung galaxy S.. I tried the sim in an iphone and it does receive the 3G.
Is there anyone who knows if there is something t do, to configurate so that my cell can work in 3G in Mexico?
It would be very helpful.
Thanks.
Mike
Maybe your Preferred Network Type is selected Only 2G?
Thanks but i tried in Auto and also selecting WCDMA only but it only receives 2G ...
Celphone is purchased in Europe but 3G works in all other countries out of Europe..
