4.5.0.37 for 8320
 

I am unable to get a UMA connection on 4.5.0.37.
How many other 8320 users are having the same issue?

I do know that you are not alone.

Dude, you gotta use the search button.... We just had a heart felt discussion about it over the last 2 days.

Someone said that the UMA function still works, it just wont show on the ribbon...

Give the BBmessenger a try with UMA, and maybe that will tell you...

No, UMA does not work on 4.5.0.37 on the T-Mobile 8320.
It gives an error W006.8 - it has nothing to do with "it just wont show on the ribbon".

It doesn't work.

well mine works just fine .... it actually picks up UMA faster than .18......the only thing is it doesnt say UMA on the bar .....

So if you go into the WiFi diagnostics, there is no error message?

nope no error message ...shows me which router im connected to which i think how its suppose to be ..
i dont really understand how the same software works for me but not for the other guy with same specs?????
t-mo 8320???
[we even live in the same state ..lol...] NJ

Actually, you are the first one I can find who it works for.

UMA works for me as well

edit no it doesnt

Fascinating. On my T-Mobile 8320, using 4.5.0.37, UMA will not start. WiFi is fine. In WiFi Diagnostics, it shows an error W006.8, status T-Mobile Network error.

I wonder if you are using a different serving UNC and Security Gateway Address.

It plain doesn't work.

UMA doesn't start for me either. I've heard that it works for a few but not for others.

i apologize for the wrong statement UMA doesnt work what works is only wi-fi...
(is there any improvements at all on .37??)

Yeah, EDGE works better. It's a trade-off right now. Which do you want? UMA or EDGE?

I need UMA...so I downgraded my OS to .18

Wirelessly posted

No UMA on mine either with .37. I have a feeling this software is the same build for the 8310.

.18 had wifi/uma issues for me so I actually use .18 with the rim8320g.sfi file (in the GPRS folder) from .10. Pretty good combination.

lol...looks more stable compare to .18 not dropping calls and all
think ill hang onto .37 for now..

If you don't need/want UMA then it's fine. I recommend going to Options >Mobile Network and setting your mobile connection to Mobile network only. That way it quits searching for the UMA. I'm guessing that will eat up the battery.

That's exactly what I did.

My battery was torched last week at WES...with both WIFI and Cell ON. Something about the TMO network and all the peeps trying to hit it.
