Guest triplezoney Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 I know this might be in the wrong place, but as I have a Pulse on tmobile... Has anyone else had problems with the 2g network the past couple of days? I'm in the midlands & have had no signal for at least 2 days now! Anyone???! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure in settings on your phone that you haven't ticked the option 'USE 3G when available" as this disables your service. It's a known issue.

Guest le_lutin Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 I'm Nottinghamshire and have had no problems. Make sure in settings on your phone that you haven't ticked the option 'USE 3G when available" as this disables your service. It's a known issue. What is the known issue? I'm on O2. I have the "prefer umts (3g) network" switched on, but the phone then tells me that theres "no service" when I don't have 3g coverage (ie, it doesn't seem to automatically switch to 2g). When I search manually for networks in a no 3g area, it will successfully find the O2 2g network, but when I try to connect to it, it will tell me that my SIM doesn't support it(!!). The SIM is about 3 or 4 years old, would that be the issue. I am currently experiencing issues with bad battery life and I am wondering if there might also be a link to my issue above.

A mate of mine hasnt been able to use his iphone on anything by gprs for the past few days. Well I can use 3g (when "prefer umts (3g) network" is selected) and I can use 2g (when "use only 2g networks" is selected), it's just that with "prefer umts (3g) network" is selected, it won't use a 2g network when a 3g one is not available. It's sounds more like an issue with the phone than the network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
