I have a problem with my Torch:

When the signal goes from 3G to 3g/gprs/edge (no BIS), i find the torch will stay in that mode until i turn off the phone and turn it on again. this is extremely annoying. I wonder if I messed up some settings somewhere.

It losses the BIS signal quite frequently too and at places with lots of coverage as well; One Utama, Bukit Bintang, Putrajaya, so i find it weird that it does this.

does anyone else have this problem?

That's odd. I've never had that problem before, and even when my connection drops completely (lousy coverage where i live), it reconnects to BIS rather quickly. When i'm outdoors it's almost always 3G, and drops to EDGE occasionally when i'm in buildings. Had no problems when i was at the Curve, SS15, Taipan. Coverage shouldn't be a problem in densely populated areas. Any plans to check with your telco?
so this is most likely to be telco related problem? will check with celcom.

thanks

I'm not sure if its your phone or your telco, although telco shouldn't be a problem, because like i said, densely populated areas should be covered by all telcos. Why don't you head to your nearest care centre and get your phone checked out by a technician? I'm planning to do the same for my Torch; can't get Youtube to work right with Maxis 3G.
my torch has been well these couple of days. no more getting stuck on 3g or edge without BIS. now it picks up the BIS almost instantly. wonder if it's the reboot i did after installing some apps biggrin.gif


is installing os6 .337 from other telco safe?
