IT IS NOT POSSIBLE, PERIOD, TO MANUALLY CONFIGURE THE DATA SETTINGS FOR THE GERMAN UNLOCKED PRE. THEY ARE PRE-PROGRAMMED INTO THE PHONE AND CANNOT BE ALTERED UNLESS YOUR A MASTER OF HACKING PHONES. Even then it is simply not possible nor wll it ever be even with the so called update in November that allows you to manually configure the data settings. IT IS A DUAL BAND, NOT TRI BAND UMTS PHONE, I HAVE THE PALM PDF MANUAL, 900/2100 FOR THE OTHER SIDE OF THE POND AS I LIKE TO SAY AND NOTHING YOU DO WILL CHANGE THIS FACT. PEOPLE GET A DOSE OF REALITY HERE. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN. KEVIN
For the other two aussies that have their Pre
what are your views on this?
I'm trying to get an understanding on whether when I am connecting to the Telstra network it is on their NextG network (i.e 850Mhz). The above suggests that the German Pre is dual band (900/2100) rather than the advertised quadband. Could this be the case why I am not getting 3G at my house whereas with the iPhone it wasn't an issue? and when I travel 5 mins from home it connects to 3G but it roams??
