Thanks Kwisatz. This was helpful and helped me realize the issue is actually that I'm trying to do data access during a voice call, which can only be done when the device is in 3G or WiFi mode. Unfortunately, my emulator is displaying GPRS and it's not clear how to switch it. Neither the netspeed flag for the emulator nor the *#*#4636#*#* test mode option does the job.
I'll post again to see if anyone knows how to do this.
