3G Connection Problem

I have an Xperia Neo MT15i. i was on GB when suddenly my 3g got some problems. i can see an "H" on the signal bar but i cant browse the internet. i tried updating it to ICS via SEUS still the same. i know i got the correct apn settings.  i tried to flash wih other firmware of GingerBread and ICS from xda. still cant access the internet eventhough it has connected. tried typing *#*#7378423#*#* and under CONFIGURATION '"Working Bands: GSM 850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS_BC1, UMTS_BC8". Im from the phiippines and using SMART network.

Have read somewhere the Smart Communications GSM Frequency Band - 850Mhz/900 MHz/1800 MHz (Tri-Band)
3G Frequency Band W-CDMA (UMTS) 2100 MHz UMTS/3G 1900(uplink)/2100(downlink) (Dual Band).

is this the problem why i cant browse the internet?

Which phone do you have? which android version and build number? try a brand new SIM card, check the APN settings, check your network coverage

tried new sim no internet copnnection even its connected via 3g. but when i try to connect the sim card on my other phone 3g works. apn settings are correct. verified it with Smart. I can see the "H" logo on the upper right and everytime i turn the data connection on, the sync picture always appear on top. the small circle. tried editing the apn config xml still no luck.
