Help Orange 3G problem: calls cutting out instantly

[D-U-R-X]

I can't actually remember mate

I remember reading a description of each on XDA a while back, I'll have a look see if I can find it.

Not to worry if not... just wondered! Not had any issues, so will probably leave it alone for now!

Leg End!

Nice one... like I say, probably leave as is for now... nice to (sort of) understand though!

Reading that I would say, If you live in a border line 3G area, switching to GSm auto prl will save batter, thats it

Where would I be without having people like you two to explain everything... and people think I know what I'm on about!!!

I have no idea whether I'm in a good 3G area... don't really use mobile data that much, as I am usually either at home or at work, so have the WIFI turned on!!

I know nothing but... does it maybe sound like you're in a location which has only a weak Orange signal, which could cause the phone to keep switching between Orange & T-Mobile, 2G & 3G? If this were the case, perhaps your phone keeps missing calls because it is in the middle of its chopping and changing? If this is a possibility, it would also explain why this isn't happening when you try another network's SIM card.

Hi mate. Thats actually one of the only times Ive seen it roam onto T-mobile, and I was in a different location to where I work. At my workplace Im always on full signal. Plus, Ive only had dropping calls issue for just over a week now. But Im at a loss. Orange didnt call me back last night, like they promised. Feels like Im banging my head against the wall. Very frustrating.
