[Q] HTC Inspire AT&T no carrier - General Questions and Answers

I just flashed to LeeDroid V3.2.1 on my HTC Inspire. Upon install I have been unable to connect to the AT&T network to place any phone or data connections. I have attempted to change the radio/ril but have seen none of them take care of this issue, when I go through setup to select a carrier, I actually have no company to choose from. Hopefully you can assist me. Thanks in advance

I recently flashed to this rom as well with the same phone without issues. When you say "setup a carrier" i assume you are going to settings --> wireless and networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network Operators and then in here either going "search networks" or "select automatically"?
If this yields no results then I would recommend rolling back to prior rom and then attempting flash again.
If this doesn't work perhaps go back to stock then re-root and attempt flash again.
I know going back to stock can fix a lot of issues such as sound, reception, slow downloads that's why I recommend that option. Also, stock radio should work fine.
I hope this helps and good luck!
EDIT: Also look at the APN settings here is a link to it for your phone could be something there.

I also was going to suggest taking a look at the APN settings.

Sorted this issue out with a web due moment, I had the cover off and didn't realize it had a pair of contacts that were required to have the sim card seated. Sometimes It's the simplest answers.
Thanks for the help

[Q] URL access blocked?

I'm new to android and had a friend help me root my inspire 4g, flash a new rom and a new radio. everything works well except for surfing the web on the data network. Apps that pull data work over the network work, I can access my email and the browsers work on wifi. But when I'm on the data network alone, i get an error saying "Access to this URL has been blocked". What could cause this? is it a setting?
I've tried different browsers and many different websites and i get the same thing.
help please...thanks
Just to clarify, he is running Coredroid v3.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=965207) with the recommended radio 26.04.02.17_M2
He also is using a SIM card that used to be in an iPhone, if that effects anything.
If he is using the stock APN, he will need to get on the HSPA+ data plan for it work correctly.
flashing coredroid does nothing with the APN correct? Howcome it worked before the root/rom then?

Actually, it very well may. APN's are stored in the ROM. It also could be that coredroid has a hosts file that is causing the problem, redirecting to localhost. I haven't tried it so I can't say either way.
What APN is listed in the settings?
it seems to be wap.cingular. does that sound right?
That is not the stock Inspire one, that is for non hspa + devices. It shouldn't cause any issues but it may. Search for a thread I started asking for the default stock apn.

i found some settings that someone said worked on that thread but they are the same as the one that my phone is currently using
wont let me copy them to here cause i havent posted enough
I seem to have fixed it. i found the stock apn settings for the inspire and made a new apn with them and it's working. it's slow cause im on the EDGE network up here in erie pa but whatever...it works! thanks guys

Can't enable data in phone information menu

Hey guys, despite having the correct APN I can't enable data on my wifes Sensation.
Tried my own SIM to no avail and tried different firmware to make sure it wasn't an incompatible radio or RIL.
S-off, Super CID, created SIM data in HBoot but wondering if I should maybe repeat that step again or should I try something else?
I'd tried GSM/CDMA auto PRL because it always switches to WCDMA preferred after flagging a new firmware but I can't enable a data connection no matter what. If someone fixes this I'll throw them an immediate reward via Paypal. New to the Sensation and poised for time unfortunately. My wife really needs this working so thanks in advance. I'll keep researching.

Hi,
Not sure if you fixed this yet.
If johnerz method did not help,try deleting your APN values,reboot,then re-install them...
Sweet mother of pearl it's still not working! Even got Rogers to do a network re-registration and nothing. Trying everything again with a new SIM card, new ROM and different firmware. This is exhausting.
Thanks for the help though, guys! I'll keep trying those steps.

lol I was a little excited. Instead, I wish to him a thousand fellatios (performed by someone other than myself)
All right, flashed a new ROM and repeated the abovementioned and it WORKED!!! I think someone was messed up with the Virtuous ROM I was using. They updated it and I downloaded it and that worked. I re-downloaded it earlier through my computer and checked the MD5 sum and it was good. Very weird.
In any event, flashed the appropriate firmware with a good radio and RIL and she's got great reception! So stoked. Now I just have to make sure she doesn't go over her data plan because that'll cost me a fortune as well... women!! lol
Thanks for everyone's help!!!
Worked for me....no I dea why it just dropped off?
No fellatio though m8

no mobile data with new roms

Hi, I flashed cyanogenmod 7.2 the other night and everything went great, no problems. Today I wanted to try a couple different roms, I tried Buglees Beast and Codename Android 3.2, both flashed fine but I have no mobile data on either of them. If I restore back to Cyanogenmod everything works fine. Does anyone have any ideas why this may be? Thanks
Just reflashed bugless beast and still same thing, no mobile data. Then flashed cm 9.0 everythin great. I would still like to try the other roms if I can get them to work.
When u flash another ROM and u will have no data connection, go to; settings/more/mobile networks/access point name/ and check if there is access point name of the network u on, if not y need to make APN for ur network.
you have to input your specific carrier settings, check it by going to the carrier website, there should be a section where they list all the necessary settings for the internet to work. you can input it by going to settings->under wireless and networks, choose more->mobile networks->Access point names->menu button, and click on more. after inputting, make sure you enable it. hope this helps. if still doesn't work, try a new radio.

Are you refering to the option to add 'New APN'? I have a post regarding this. Not sure if it was just me, but did some testing. Do you even have the option in the 3-button menu for 'New APN' or just 'Reset to Default'? I believe after the 4.4.3 firmware update, verizon or htc removed this feature and using an auto detect network for sim cards. So not all SIM cards will register the data/apn information and you will not be able to add it. You need to downgrade back to the 4.4.2 firmware and older ROM.

Go to settings and click on mobile networks. Click network preference. Hit the three dot menu button and hit add. Select operator list. In the monster list there can you find your carrier? If so add it. Reboot phone. See if your apn settings are any different.
I take pictures and they don't save?

Dottat, I saw that option to add an operator. Both sim cards I used when rebooted showed the network operator/carrier, which I assume is why It connects to voice signal and text. I guess I could add more options and see what happens if it changes the apn detection or gives the option in the 3-button menu for New APN. I guess I will be without a phone again for a few hours while I reflash the 4.4.3 firmware and install a new ROM to verify it works. Will report back. So far, when running 4.4.2 firmware and any rom, the selection for New APN is available. With firmware/RUU 4.4.3 the option is missing. Wish me luck. :victory::laugh:
Update: Thanks DOTTAT for the direction. I redid everything and finally got the APN to list up. Looks like a different approach is needed for the 4.4.3 software. I actually got the APN's to load up once I got the Network Preferences loaded. The list is long with the providers. Once I found the network provider, I had to add 3 different cellular options under that provider, then reboot the device. After that two APN's were auto populated that I was able to edit. I was used to the old firmware that gave the option. Either way it works and a happy camper. Much appreciated.
U will have to uninstall hidi with titanium backup. After I did it, I was able to Google search in English

Tried this but all I get is a message telling me that the list is full and that I need to delete some but I dont have anything in the list. I only get the option to add the MCC MNC code. I added it and rebooted but does not work either.

Trouble with data connection when mobile

Hi all,
Starting to get frustrated with my 3a and looking for avenues to address difficulty in maintaining a data connection when on the move. In all other ways this phone has been great.
When I am on the move - on the train, or in a car - my phone seems to lose data connectivity after a period of minutes. It seems to be an issue with maintaining a data connection when switching from tower to tower (at a guess). The phone does maintain mobile reception and I can be on a call without dropouts, but if for example watching a video, the video will stop, and eventually I will get the little cross in the reception icon to indicate no data connection.
No issues when not moving about, but am currently doing a lot of work on the fly, so hotspotting or conference calls are near impossible. This didn't always seem to be a problem, but due to Covid (and not moving around for a while), not sure exactly when it started. Have done some googling and tried a new sim card + changing private DNS settings with no luck. On the latest available update.
Is this a known issue with this phone? Any way I can diagnose or fix? Or am I looking at a new phone at this point?
Have rooted and switched ROMs on many previous phones, so quite happy to go down that path if need be.
cheers
I understand you say this only happens when you are moving but I would recommend checking with whatever carrier anyway maybe look on your carrier help site and write your same post here there and see if anyone else experiences the same. I would also save everything to USB or PC and flash factory image via fastboot and let it wipe not removing the fastboot -w in the./flash-all.sh. You could use an app like LTE discovery and set it to where you know exactly what it's doing and when it does it because you can set a small beep sound or wherever. What carrier do you use? Maybe update roaming , prl and profile, if you use a CDMA carrier. Also what type of case are you using? Just a few things that I thought of after reading your post here. You've probably already done all this but if not that's definitely what I would do. And last but certainly not least, are you using a custom rom or stock? Maybe check your/apns-conf.xml/ aka your apns and make sure they're correct and all for your carrier. I don't think you have to worry about apns unless you are using a custom rom in which case I would definitely check it out because sometimes they can be not right. I use Metro by T-Mobile and I'm located in the USA.
If you are on a custom rom you could try the old apn fix and just see if it's apn related... Wouldn't hurt anything.. Just save your current /apns-conf.xml/ and delete the apns-conf.xml file in your /system/etc/ and in /system/product/etc/ and replace the one in /system/product/etc/ with the one i link here and set permissions on it to 0644, then go to settings on your phone /networks and internet/ mobile networks/ scroll to bottom there and select access point names. Should be a lil three dot thing in top right and when you hit that select "reset to default" or "reset to default apn" and wait another 60 seconds or so then reboot. That will replace your apn configuration file. My file is recently copied from my last custom rom where everything worked fine and I had no issues. If this somehow is related to an apn outa wack then this will fix it. I learned this back years ago on another device forum from spaceminer here on xda. I've used this many times since and it's always worked. Again you don't need to do this on stock , only if you are using a custom rom. I believe stock is good.
my apns-conf.xml: is.gd/2MPL8W
