QUOTE(nick67 @ Dec 6 2010, 09:39 AM) Go to mobile networks in settings and turn off data. did u mean the data roaming? i already untick that, in fact i never tick that.. my phone either went to roaming or it didn't detect any network and changes to GSM/WCDMA auto mode by itself.. i cant choose GSM mode only.. |

QUOTE(chaos415 @ Dec 6 2010, 03:58 PM) What about mobile data? Is it on? If you have setup your Gmail account, check also the background and auto sync. if i untick the mobile network, it'll disconnect from the internet right?it's the same thing like what apndroid do, right? but my phone will still look for 3g/hsdpa connection and that'll consume battery power what's wrong with my phone.. huhuhu |

im getting slight headache with my desire..
i still couldnt figure out why my phone did not get any signal when i use gsm only instead of wcdma or wcdma/gsm auto.. n the battery could only last max 1.5 days with very minimal usage.. n today, the phone suddenly wont connect to internet.. i have 1gb data plan, n i've used about 600mb only.. no idea why i cant n wont connect.. |

QUOTE(akachester @ Dec 13 2010, 07:41 AM) - 1.5 days of usage is fairly good TBH. I am getting MAX of 2 days with everything stopped (inclusive of 3G connection) ever with the Desire well, i got 1.5 days with wifi, gps off and 3g only on when i wanna browse the internet.. n with 2-3 short calls, casual sms n angry birds.. nothing else like radio, music.. - Regarding the internet, i do, at times, have problem with it not connection to Mobile Network. What i suggest you to try, is go back to Settings -> Wireless -> Mobile Networks and see the description for the checkbox. Sometimes, it is listed as "Connection Failed". For whatever reasons, at times it does not auto reconnect. Just uncheck and check back the box and connection will be fine after that. as for the connection, it didnt say connection fail, i've already uncheck and check back, switch off and on the phone, even took out the simcard (for no reason), reset the apn to default, but nothing works.. it has been more than 1 day now.. |
