Hi Folks

Recently purchased an Huawei E3131 mobile broadband dongle which is supposed to be compatible with an Aushuo A816.

Mine does not work :eek:

Couple of problems.

1. when I go to settings.wireless and network settings , mobile networks have ticked Data enabled and data roaming. when I click on network operators and search for networks i get " error while searching for networks "

2. when in access point names I have one item " O2 UK " and if I try to enter say " Tmobile UK " and save it does not appear in list even after a restart.

So I am completely lost. Needless to say it works fine on PC and network coverage on andorid phone gives me 4 bars and -91db coverage so should connect OK

Any suggestions / advice welcome.

On your PC does it connect to 02 or T-Mobile? I have a link below regarding communications using a dongle and there may be something there to help.
 
Good grief that was quick.

Just unlocked dongle it was Tmobile and on PC can connect to tmobile / o2 / 3 / vodafone

Just had look at link I have Android 2.3 but details are the same. When I add APN and save it does not reappear.
