Post How to setup 3G data on uPlay PhonePad 2

uPlay PhonePad works out of box for phone calls, but you need to set it up for your carrier's data network in order to use its 3G data network to access Internet. Usually the data network is preset by your carrier when they sell you Android phones. Since you get an unlocked phone tablet directly from us, you have to set it up yourself.

In general setting up data network for uPlay PhonePad is the same as setting up any Android phone. You just have to fill the APN settings.

1. Open "Settings" -> "Wireless & network settings"->"Mobile network settings". Make sure "Data enabled" is checked.
2. Click "GSM/UMTS Options", then "Access Point Names". Press "Menu" key (one of the keys at the bottom of uPlay PhonePad screen showing four squares) to bring up menu for this page. Then click "New APN".
3. Fill the APN settings for your carrier. We list APN settings for AT&T and T-Mobile in the following. If you have a different carrier, you can google "<your carrier's name> Android Phone APN" to search their settings, or call them to ask the right settings.
4. Click "menu" button to bring up menu, and click "Save" to save APN settings. Once you save it, you should see it in the APN profile list. If you don't see it in the APN list, it won't work. You may have multiple APS profile. You have to make sure you select the right one for your current SIM card.

Hello I am not able to get 3G coverage on my tablet phone pad gen2.
TMobile says that a device has to suppport 1700MHz band for 3G service to be availble on that device. Is this device 1700MHz band compatible?

So does it mean my device will not work with 3G? ( i am on T-Mobile)
It has been mentioned that the phonepad has been tested on T-Mobile.
??Any one out there has tested theirs on Tmobile?

i tried using the *#*#4636#*#* code to get into the phone information to change the radio band. However, when I click on radio band...it just says "Set GSM/UMTS band" but nothing to select from.
