Niki100 Triband GSM, AT&T Edge?

[venelar]

Will it be able to at least connect to AT&T's EDGE network? It's for the wife and 3G doesnt matter. Edge would be nice though. I have an 8525 that I've done a lot to so I'm not a complete noob, but some general direction/help would be great.

What I'm working with:

I purchased a UK (orange) touch dual through ebay. It arrived this morning and I have already flashed the hard-spl and then flashed Tom Codons v2 rom. The first splash screen (orange) says "security unlocked" at the top ... does this mean it is super cid already?? I then ran the connection wizard setting everything for AT&T. With the default connection set to media net it would not connect or update weather from htc home or anything to i set it to my isp and it works; I can browse the internet, download weather from htc home, everything she needs to do on the phone.

The only thing I'm not sure about is at the top bar of the today screen, it shows a small G icon (data im assuming), and where the larger connection icon normally is I have an icon with 2 arrows and an x. Is something not fully functioning?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It really depends on what bands ATT has in your local area. In my geography (central PA), there used to be legacy orange/blue ATT networks as Cingular and ATT merged years back, so we have pretty good overlapping coverage of 850/900 bands. In this area, 900 is pretty solid but it flips between G and E often.

If I drive to other regions though, such as northern Baltimore, MD, the coverage is much worse and there are miles of highway where I get no signal at all.

Looks like in a few months I'll switch her to t-mob, functioning enough for now though.
