[Q] No packet data and network selection - Captivate General

Hi, I've been trying to connect my captivate to my network's WAP connection but not been able so far.
My Captivate's info:
Baseband Version: I897UCJH7 (the stock version)
Kernel Version: Voodoo Lagfix
Rooted
I bought it unlocked in the US, inserted my sim card (Wap was working in 3G on my previous Nokia N95), I configured the APN info to the Captivate correctly, then tryed to open a site with no luck. No internet and no MMS.
I started investigating and found that the Network operators menu won't let me choose any of the local networks as a "Default Setup" button is greyed out. I thought this must be an other AT&T lock and tryed to solve this by rooting the phone as I had no idea what that is for but it didn't help.
Ancel's 3G Network works in 2100Mhz. In the about section Mobile network type goes from UMTS to EDGE to HDSPA all the time, Service State "In service" and Mobile Network State from connecting to disconnected all the time.
When I start sending a MMS, Mobile Network State goes to "connected", the phone displays a little 3G icon with two grey arrows at the top of the screen, but the MMS never sends. The icon eventually goes away, the Mobile Network State goes back to disconnected and connecting and the message never gets "sent".
Can anyone help me? Thank you.
Javier.

[Q] Sim card does not allow connection to this network

I am posting this as a new thread as my reply on a similar thread got lost or ignored and I would really appreciate inputs :
Randomly at times when I try to register on network manually (MTNL Dolphin 3G - Mumbai). Unrooted MB865 ver 2.3.6 & updated on 18th May 2012 to System Ver 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en03. If I keep the setting as Automatic in Type of Network & Operator it functions fine fluctuating between Dolphin for local access & CellOne on roaming access in the same area based on cell tower connection the phone registers on alternating between "E" & "H" automatically based on cell mast direction proximity, however if I select 3G only and uncheck automatic for operator then the phone searches for signal for a very long time and fails to show any operator saying "no connection available" & sometimes when "Dolphin" network does appear and try to select manually get the error as "this sim card does not allow connection to this network". I did complain with the service provider and they were supposed to get back to me after checking in their switchboard exchange where I also provided them my SIM number in addition to my cellphone number(no response). Also as is case with poor service of all Indian cell network providers even in urban cities, also face random peculiar issue of call not being received inspite of signal available on the phone & network asking me to recheck the number I have dialled while placing outgoing calls though it is ok and signal is sufficient. Also "Network Speed Booster" app looks like a lot of bull (any other good apps??)
I needed to know using the secret Menu *#*#4636#*#* for 3G GSM service which kind of network I should ideally select for best results & does this setting override the regular menu network settings??
I get "G", "E", "H" randomly based on my locations but no "3G" or "H+" and further at times these icons are grey and sometimes blue and in either cases randomly
at different locations sometimes data throughput is not there as only one of the arrow shows active blinking. Any advise on the status based on colors and the blinking of the arrows?? Thanks!
PS _ This is what another user had posted (do you guys feel this is a phone defect?)
I wasn't able to solve this problem about an year. But did. And totally sure that it is Device's defect (in some cases it is a ROM deffect as in my case, in other - hardware. Smth like stack overflow issues at GSM controller or so). A year ago when I had face this "sim card does not allow connection... " problem, there are no google serch results on this keywords request. Any. To remove this message I was ought to reboot my device every time it appears. And I was thinking that it is normal behaviour for my device. But now there are lot of complainings at the web ( minimum 5 of Galaxy Tabs P1000, thousands of HTC Disire, few motorolla Deffy, 10 Galaxy Ace, few of Nexus S and so on), so I understand that I'm not alone, and problem is known. So I went to Samsungs Service and they confirmed that it is famous problem, have flashed my phone with some magic ROM (magic because it is official but does not available anywhere in the web, XDA or samsung sites! ) and now my phone works fine. Any other solutions like battery removing, *#*#4636#*#* sirvice menu, new sim-card, flashing variety of modems and roms, didn't helps me. This is not faulty sim. This is serious device's defect. Bring your phone to manufacturer and let them repair it or give your money back. This is their problem not your.

MVNO Issue (Virgin/TMob UK using Orange)

Hi Guys,
Basically my provider is Virgin Uk who is an MVNO. They use TMobiles network. TMobile has an agreement with Orange so that we can use their network when the TMob/Virgin signal is not good. Once I am on the Orange network, the network name changes to 'Virgin' from the normal 'virgin'.
Note, in the notification pull down tray where you can see the current network, when I am on my home network ('virgin'), it shows as 'no service'.
Whilst I am on the 'virgin' network (actually the TMob network), I can use data without any changes to the roaming settings. If I swap over onto the 'Virgin' network (actually the Orange network), Android tells me that I am roaming and thus I have lost data. At this stage I have to change the roaming settings to enable data.
In my CM9 rom, I have an option to enable 'National Data Roaming'. Should this option allow me to use data on the 'Virgin' network (actually the Orange network)?
This doesn't appear to be the case and I have to switch on the main 'Data Roaming' option which would then mean when travelling abroad where I am actually roaming, I would get charged for any data usage.
Does anyone have ideas on how to sort this out so I don't have to keep changing my Roaming options?
Thanks

My network no longer appears when I search in network operators

My problem is a bit weird. I've been using Wind Mobile in Canada for quite a while, and I've never had a problem with it. I went to India for a month (left my Wind Mobile SIM at home), and when I came back, my phone would connect to Wind Mobile for a few days, and then disconnect for a few days. And when I tried to reconnect to it, it would say cannot connect to network right now, try again later. No other users in my area had this issue. I carried out the following"
I went into TWRP>advanced wipe>checked off everything and wiped everything (USB-OTG failed, but I don't think there is anything to wipe there).
Flashed stock CM12.1 as per this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541 - Except I did not carry reset the tamper/lock the bootloader
Still could not connect to Wind Mobile. It would sometimes let me connect to "Wind Away", and other networks, just not "Wind Home," which is the one I'm supposed to be on.
Flashed TWRP because I forgot to do so earlier. Not sure if relevant. Still could not connect to Wind Mobile. It still let me connect to Wind Away, and other networks sometimes.
Plugged my SIM into my friend's OPO, and it worked!! Plugged his into mine, and it did not work
Fiddled around in the "phone info" menu that comes up after dialing *#*#4636#*#*
Now I can't even see Wind Home or Wind Away when I search in Network Operators. But it still lets me connect to Telus and Rogers. I even received text messages after connecting.. So I'm guessing I ****ed something up in the *#*#4636#*#* menu that prevents me from finding Wind network under network operators.
My Current Build:
CM 12.1.1-YOG7DAS2K1
Kernel 3.4.67-cyanogenmod-g022-ae3
Build LMY48Y
Baseband Version: DI.3.0.c6-00241-M8974AAAAANAZM-1
Thanks for your time

HELP!! 3G Mobile Data not working. Somebody please help..

By default the Network Mode is on LTE/WCDMA/GSM (Auto) mode but when I switch on mobile data, nothing shows up, no data connection. And sometimes even no voice service, it shows "emergency calls only".
But when I switch to GSM only mode, EDGE connection shows up (which is normal), Internet goes normal but very slow with EDGE connection (Sometime GPRS).
I tried to swap SIM with my friend, and their SIM works fine with my phone under LTE/WCDMA/GSM (Auto) mode and I do get HSPA and HSPA+ Signal. (Network provider setting changed to their network provider)
I contact my network provider and they said my SIM has no problem, they did insert my SIM into their device and found no problem with my SIM on their device, they get HSPA+ signal with my SIM. And they ask me to take my phone to check for hardware failure.
I checked the APNs and network provider setting, reset back to Stock ROM and clean install my ROM several times, still have no luck
My subscription do have HSPA connection and has been using it for months at the same location, but now it just stay at EDGE and GPRS only.
Is that really a hardware problem? Or could it be SIM problem?
Device Info:
Device: Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 LTE (S7275R)
ROM: CM13-20160315build

Lg g4 h810 works 2G only

Hi,
I bought this phone Lg G4 h810, it shows AT&T logo whenever i boot it and the problem is despite of network mode on lte/wcdma/gsm/auto it always runs on2G internet speed and shows E sign.
I am from india and many service providers are still not offering4G internet service. But this phone doesn't even runs on wcdma. My previous phone lenovo was nicely running on wcdma and always showed the sign H.
My cellular operator is idea cellular and i had a word with them, they sent me settings and all and help me input the settings manually too, but nothing worked.
I checked even the frequencies, idea cellular is offering UMTS B1(2100) and UMTS B8(900 gsm). I checked this on LG website and these bands are compatible with the phone i bought, but still i can't get anything more than2G. Why so?
Plus there is one more problem, when i switched it on for the first time it showed update available And when i tried to update, it showed error and now always there's an icon on top left corner of phone saying couldn't install system update. I tried restarting and updating the device many times, but it's still the same.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Have you put your Company APN?
Yes i did, the company executive even helped me to manually save the settings to run the internet in a 3G mode. But all efforts in vain.
Did you solve the issue?
Anything new? I have the same problem.
I have this problem too
Try hidden menu with *#546368#*810# and under Field Test menu / Modem settings if there is VoLTE on/off chose VoLTE and restart. I have done that and my phone starts working with 4G. Don't forget to set up good APN if it's not automatically set by network provider.

Hi
Under VoLTE there is another entry named "Session" and in there
RPR(on/off) switch
I enabled it and restarts but it is again on 2g
Anyone further on this issue??
I have this problem too
I was flash the stock firmware,custom firmware customizing the build.prop,changed the settings in the engineering menu *#546368#*810# disconnected volte,changed LTE bands forcibly. Nothing helps,dont work 3G LTE - 2G only(. I realized that I need to re-flash (change) the original QCN file for H810 and re-register IMEI , but I can not find QCN it freely available.
Hello there, i had the same issue. The fix that worked for me was searching for network manuallly and reconnecting again to my carriers LTE network. Worked as a charm. The issue maybe was a brutal handover as I had been travelli g from a city to another one 200 km away. So somehow I had been disconnected from the LTE network and left stranded in the 2g one. Try it it should work
