Refer to your handset user guide or use our Internactive Online Manuals for more info.

We have loads of handy hints, tips and simple diagnostics in our Phone Support section. If you don't find the solution here and your phone is still under warranty just bring it along to your nearest T-Mobile store where one of our trained advisors will be happy to test it for you.
Alternatively, if the warranty has expired, you may be able to claim on your insurance policy. You may also want to see if you're eligible for an upgrade by logging in to My T-Mobile
If you are not eligible for an upgrade or you do not have insurance we can still fix your phone for you but there will be a charge for testing and repairing the handset. If you would like us to repair your phone please speak to an advisor in your nearest T-Mobile retail shop. You can check where your nearest T-Mobile store is here
HSDPA makes the 3G network faster so you can download files and surf the internet at higher speeds. It covers all of our 3G network. Your connection will run at HSDPA speeds if you are using the silver data card and you're in a 3G coverage area.
