Hi,

I have a HTC Desire HD and whenever I try to activate mobile internet through T-Mobile it states "Use phone for data connection when Wi-Fi is unavailable". When I restart my phone and then retry to conect to the internet it connects fine. If I disconnect it and connect it again a days time it will have the same problem again.

Any idea why this is happening. I had HTC Desire - not HD previously and it had the same problem.

Thanks
MS

    I've got the Desire HD and it sounds like yours is picking up a Wifi signal from somewhere and therefore not using the mobile internet. Have you tried unticking the Wifi box? Mine displays the same message when I'm connected to a Wifi network. When I leave the house for example, mobile internet then kicks in.
