I've had this problem more than once since I bought the NS. Didn't bother changing the APNs as it was working before.
All I did was restart my phone and it fixed the problem.

I tried entering My apn but nothing works

I've got the same problem: no data connection whatsoever, reboot didn't fix it.

Happened to me once, Reflashing radio or backup didnt help... I ended up doing this.
It may help you
From the dialer, type:
*#*#4636#*#*
Select phone information
scroll to the bottom.
change the GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) to WCDMA only.
Reboot (Had to reboot 2x)
Once data was restored I changed the setting back to GSM/CDMA

[Q] Can't make / receive calls or messages, but data works(!)

Ok guys, having a pretty weird problem here. Thought I'd try and get some help here.
I was on my HTC Sensation today and I was looking at a few of the settings under the 'secret' *#*#4636#*#* menu on my phone. Out of curiosity, under the 'phone information' bit, I selected 'WDCMA only' (from WDCMA preferred) to test the coverage in my area. And after that, I haven't been able to get a sodding bit of reception in any way. I reset the option, restarted, pulled the battery, removed the SIM, reflashed my rom, flashed other roms, tried reflashing and flashing other firmwares, everything. No joy.
Curiously, even though I can't make or receive calls, or send or receive texts, data still works (not wifi, data) - I mean, lolwut? And WiFi works.
And there's nothing wrong with my network because my SIM works fine in another phone I have, and I've talked to Vodafone (which was a frankly useless call).
Does anybody have any suggestions? I'd really appreciate any input.
Thanks!
Update: Now data doesn't work. Humph.
Go back to wcdma prefered

Already tried that. Turns out my phone has been IMEI locked. Hmm. Which is strange given that it isn't lost or stolen...
I remember this happened to me on my Nexus One.. that i couldn't set it back no matter what i did..
Always do a Nand backup before tempering with those settings. I dunno how i fixed it but possibly i reflashed my Rom. Try that without wipe..

[Q] Mobile data disconnects frequently, does not reconnect on toggling

I'm surprised no one else has faced this problem. Mine and 2 other Explorers I have seen have it.
The mobile data gets disconnected on its own. The 'E' symbol from the network icon goes away. But mobile data is marked as enabled in the settings.
Sometimes, toggling mobile data a couple of times does the trick. Sometimes I have to toggle airplane mode then toggle data. Sometimes even this doesn't work and I have to reboot the phone to get data to work.
This disconnection happens every couple of hours, so it is a real pain.
I am using cm9, I had the problem on stock too and on every ROM I have tried.
I have tried marking the network type to 'GSM only' in the 'Testing' menu (from 'GSM/WCDMA auto') as I read somewhere that this solves the problem. Still no luck.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

check if your apn is correct or not,
or try to use another sim card
are you facing this problem when you lock your screen?

I guess my apn is correct, since net does work normally (ie. when I'm able to connect). I have tried two sim cards, and know 2 other people who have the same problem, one of them uses a different operator.

Not necessarily, sometimes it goes off while I'm browsing etc, and then just won't come back on. And keep data always on is enabled in settings, and I don't use any battery saving app.
Any idea what the problem is?
Which rom you are using now?
Check if you have data connection or not.
Did you try to connect internet using the same sim card with another mobile
If another mobile connects to internet then reflash your ROM or try another ROM
hit thanks if helped

/QUOTE]
I am using the unofficial cm9.
I have data connection right now. I have used this same sim with my Nokia phone before I got my Explorer without any issues.
Maybe it IS an operator issue, but then there should be many complaints from India about the same thing right?

whenever i flash new rom
data wrks fine
bt persinally i hv seen that wen i install twitter
it behaves like ur prob n dsnt mtter if i uninstall it
it kps on dscnncting randomly until i flash new rom
it's a network problem, I had the same issue once so I called the network service centre & they told me that they were upgrading the system & recommended me to use the data plan after few hours.. so after few hours I called again & they confirmed that the problem was solved..after that till now I have no disconnection issues.
With BSNL sim card, I have helped so many friends connect to internet properly by creating an APN "bsnlnet". By default HTC and all use the old APN (gprssouth.cellone.in). That connects for a while and disconnects.
And Nokia phones automatically receive a configuration setting message from BSNL but Android doesn't.

I've used cm9, cm10, cm10.1, aosp, aokp, jaggy, cm10.2 weekly. It's the same with my TATA DOCOMO sim. I ported to vodafone and with the correctly configured apn settings, its working great. It's definitely a provider problem and has been for the last 2 years.

[Q] Problem With APN/Mobile Data on XT926

The other day I was on my Razr HD and the mobile data stopped working. This has happened before so i went down the list of checking if my data was set to on, airplane mode was off, etc. Everything was how it should be, and I still cant use my mobile data. The only time the 4G logo shows up is when I am connected to a wifi network, and when I turn wifi off, the logo goes away. In the status settings it shows my Mobile Network State as disconnected. I searched the forums and saw something about making a new APN, or editing an existing one, but it wont let me edit the APNs and there is no option to make a new APN. As a last resort I did a factory reset of the phone, and the problem is still happening. Does anyone have a clue what is going on?
You can try Tweakker in the play store....there are others as well

I have tried that but to get it it to work i need to make a new APN, and phone doesnt display that option anywhere. The only option it has is "reset to default"
Just use House of Moto and flash with the keepdata script

I had the same issues on official 4.4.2 (XT907 - Razr M)
I fix it with replacing APNS.CONF (*/system/etc)
I took APNS.CONF from KitStalk (AOSP-based ROM)
To this way you need to have root-access
You can try attached APNS.CONF
Don`t forget to backup original file!
Good luck!

Help with Data loss

Hello, I'm hoping someone here can help me. After several hours on Google I can't seem to find a solution to my problem.
My Nexus 5 will connect to LTE with no problem most of the time, but every couple days it will connect to 3G for a while, and never switch back. I have preferred LTE setting enabled, and have tried to force LTE only in the *#*#INFO#*#* menu, but when I do, I lose all data, and it won't connect back again ever. The only way to fix is to factory reset my phone. I have tried changing the preferred to 3G and back, changing INFO to LTE/CDMA auto PRL again, and rebooting my phone several times. I reflashed to Radio, and restored system data using titanium Backup to a time where it was working. I am totally out of ideas. I would really appreciate any help. Running Mahdi Rom 2.9 Rooted.

Data Bug on 5.0.2

I managed to side-loaded and update my phone to 5.0.2. After updating though I am unable to connect to mobile data network. I wiped cache and factory erased my phone and even bought a new sim in case the sim I was using was faulty. Any help would be appreciated figuring out the reason i am unable to connect to mobile data.
Edit: I managed to fix this after getting my sim 1 reader fixed and now it seems to me that the lollipop update supports mobile data only on sim 1.
You have XT1033, right?

I had a similar problem, i had to set proxy settings to non in apn settings...
goto-settings>more(in wireless and networks )>mobile networks>access point names>click the selected the access point remove anything written in proxy part.
This might work
There is no such problems here. Everything seems fine. Little better than KitKat in connectivity.

I tried it. But it doesn't seem to work. As far as i can tell the data switch itself isnt working. Turning it on or off keeps the data connection on off mode.
Ps. Forgot to mention that my sim 1 slot is broken. So, i am currently using Sim2.
I've had the same issue twice after reboots. Then I reboot again and it's gone.
For some reason it adds lots of data usage from "deleted users and apps" and it can't connect to the network of my SIM card, it's a bug obviously but rebooting fixes it for me.
I have an XT1032 modded to XT1033 5.0.2.
