[Q] Mytouch 3g not activating (not going through the google part sign in) - General Questions and Answers

hi i just bought a mytouch 3g from Craigslist and i don't have a data plan, so i gave my phone to a friend to activate for me. its been 5 days and he trys it everyday and this keeps on showing up "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services." we tried to master reset then activate but still not working. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

What service are you trying to use the phone on?
Some services mean that you have to setup the APN yourself if the sim card doesn't have an up to date setting. I had that happen with some of my friends, takes about 1min to fix if that is it.

my friend is using t mobile

[Q] issue with internet sharing

Hi,
I have htc radar 4g
Yesterday I popped in att sim card to unlock my phone and I have been using it for half a day. I used the htc connection setup to get mms working and internet.
After half a day i switched to tmobile sim card and I used the htc connection setup again to set setting to tmobile
Now I can't use internet sharing on my phone
When I try to turn it on i get:
"Connection not shared
To enable tethering on this device, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611"
Anyone knows how to get rid of it?
I use tmobile prepaid and this has been working before I unlocked my phone and used atts sim card...
any help appreciated!
Give it a couple days to re-provision the Internet Sharing restriction (shouldn't take more than about 24 hours). AT&T wants people to pay extra for tethering, and your phone must have picked up that restriction while it was on their network. It *should* go away on its own. Try rebooting the phone again if it sticks around.
If you were on a slightly older phone, I'd tell you haw to bypass the restriction entirely, but unfortunately we don't yet have a way to provision custom provxml files on the Radar (or other HTC gen2 phones).
will see,
i will give it a time to saturday
but this is what i did
1. made a backup on my mac
2 restored to factory settings
3. checkked ineternet sharing
it works fine
4. restored my backup
5 sharing not working
so i will wait until saturday/sunday and see
I have the exact same issue. Any solution? I'm overseas and can't use the internet tethering function which is one reason I bought this phone!

my infuse won't connect to the data network

i recently switched from my captivate to the infuse and have not been able to connect to the data network/3g. i connect to wifi fine. data network is activated. using data packets is checked. is there anything that i am missing? can it be that i need a new sim card? or do i need to change my data plan from a regular smartphone data plan to a 4g smartphone data plan? i've read that i needed to change to the 4g smartphone data plan, but when i called the customer service, he kept saying that i did not need to. anyone that had experience with this problem have any insight? thanks
Log in into your AT&T account online and check if you have an active data plan or not.
i went into the store. and he said the data plan was wrong, this is what i told customer service. now it works after the changed data plan

[Q] Red Pocket data only for mobile devices APN settings (t-mobile mvno)

I received a micro sim ordered from Red Pocket for their data only prepaid plan for mobile devices.($10 for 1gb for 30 days, $30 for 3gb for 30 days, $50 for 5 gb for 30 days. After 3 and 5 gb limits then unlimited data with reduced speed on those 2 plans). That service use their GSMT (tmobile) sim card. I have a Pantech Element (tablet 4GLTE from at&t, sim unlocked). The issue is the instructions RP gave me was to create a new 'access point name', write 'Red Pocket' at 'NAME' and 'wholesale' at 'APN'. My tablet shows strong signal, identifies it as 'RED POCKET', but when I open a browser or other aplication that requires data It keeps connecting and disconnecting. I do a scan, selected 'T-mobile', and the browser went to 'tmobile' page that shows that my device was not supported. So, I think the 'unlock' worked.
My question is, is it correct the APN setting RP gave me? It's my first time I work on something like this. And everytime I call they tell me to change something at apn setting from 'not set' to 'default', and from 'default' to 'not set'. I really want that service to work. I don't want to has to carry another device to access internet having a tablet that is 4glte gsm.
If anybody has information abbout correct APN settings for Red Pocket (tmo mvno) mobile data for devices (no voice) I will really appreciate it.
Thank you.
(appologize for my english. It's not my first language)
