Did you set it into 3G under carrier ? Because if it is in 2G it will not go to 3G...
It can also be the SIM card, I would try a different SIM card in my phone to see if it picks up 3G once you set it to pick up 3G.
Read my "8X battery tips and tricks" here on the 8X forum. You will find loads of information on settings.
Set phone to English.
Next: Go to Settings / Mobile Network
Is Data Connection set to ON?
Is Data roaming ON or OFF? You might need to roam where you are... try it.
What is the Highest connection speed setting? 2G or 3G
Then last, go to Network selection, Open it. You will get searching for Networks
Then it will display a list of Networks, in there you might find your Network twice, as simple GSM or with Data.
Check it out. Try if you have more than one choice.
Also, after you insert the SIM, you must setup the phone using the "Connection Setup" app that comes from HTC. Then after you did that, switch the phone off and then on again. Do that first!
Under APN make sure you try phone ipV4 and ipV4 and ipV6.
Then send me a message if you have questions.
