Thread: Need Help with a random question

Hi,

I used to live in the states and have a T-Mobile Bold 9700 but decided to move back to my home town of Montreal.
I am using the same phone but I did unlock it personally. I am using a fido Sim.
Everything works great except the 3G. Now someone told me maybe there was a way of changing the OS can someone help me out with this one im not even sure it is possible...if it is i guess its the Rogers OS i need?

Thanks

Go to "Manage Connections" and check "Mobile Network Options." Make sure the options are set correctly for your network.

I have the thing is that all the phones I see have the option 2G,3G or 2G&3G...I only have 2G&3G or 2G only available...So i need to prob load a Rogers OS but i dont know if that will fix it or not

I don't think the vendor has anything to do with it. I could be wrong, but the only difference from Rogers OS to, let's say, a Verizon OS is their personal stamp, the vendor xml file.

ok...possible...maybe its the bands used by the two?

Might be a stupid question but does Rogers have 3G in Montreal? The OS will make no difference in the function. The carrier operating systems are branded as that carrier, and have the push content available on that carrier, thats it.

No no I know rogers has 3G since i have friends who do use it....not only that i used my sim in a rogers phone and it works...sucks looks like its not possible oh well always wanted to try Iphone
