HTC Tytn Sim Free - I need it to work with UK Vodafone Advice Please!!

[stbtrading]

Hi,

I have been given a sim free HTC Tytn and want to use it with UK Vodafone. I currently have an ex-Orange SPV M2000 which i unlocked and it has been working fine with my Vodafone sim. With my M2000 i can make calls and browse the internet at the same time, but with the new Tytn i cannot do this :(

Is there a fix, should i upgrade it to the latest version or perhaps try and flash it with the V1605 Vodafone flash??

Advice really appreicated from one of the many knowledgeable people on here please,

Cheers

Hi, Thanks for your help so far,

I have installed the HTC UK Settings .CAB file from the helpful post below

I can now access internet using my Orange contract sim card (which has GPRS activated) although if i am on the telephone i cannot go to browse without ending the telephone call.

my Vodafone contract sim needs updating so is not available for GPRS, but i presume this will be exactly the same.

Is it IMPOSSIBLE to use Internet browsing whilst making a telephone call??

All help appreciated, Many Thanks

For simultaneous voice and data you must be on a 3G/UMTS network with a SIM card supprting 3G. If you are on a GSM network it is not possible.

Ok, so my problem lies solely with the sim cards?

If both Sim cards were upgraded by the Network to 3g sim cards, The UK settings i have installed would allow my sim free Tytn to work as required?

More Info:

I have just spoken to Orange customer services and i do have a 3G sim card and it is active, is there anything i should be altering in the settings menu or anything other files that need to be flashed or installed onto the phone?

Sorry for the lack of knowledge - hope one of you experts can help!

Thank you

are you in a 3g area? have you tried the sim in a known working phone? have you looked at the wiki or done a search on the forum?
