[Q] Data Issue...Please Help - HTC Sensation

Ok the problem is I am on GTA network here in guam (the company uses at&t phones) I have a unlock HTC Sensation and the data is not working on the phone. When I place the sim card in another phone it works perfectly. I have taken my phon to the support office and they cannot figure out the problem...Any suggestions??

Have you checked to see if you have the correct APN (Access Point Names) in your settings. To check them go to Settings/ Wireless & networks/ Mobile networks/ Access Point Names. You should shed your carrier listed in the Access Point names touch on it and right down your settings. Then Google to find the correct APN settings to check and see if they are correct. If you do not see you carrier listed then you will need to touch the menu button and then touch New apn to add your carrier's APN settings. Again Google for the settings I am sure you will find them.
Also you have to have also when you go into Settings/Wireless & networks you will see a Mobile network with a check box beside it make sure it is checked. Without this checked you will not get as mobile data connection.

Thank you for your reply. According to GTA i have the right APN and everything is checked. The phone GPS thinks im in Sparta TN. when I really am In guam. I dont know if that has anything to do with it.

any other suggestions?

Do you have the right phone?

You are supposed to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. The leprechaun will tell you all you need to know.

It's very easy. I had the same problem here in Pakistan. What you do is take the APN settings you get from your provider and fill them in the usual place (Settings->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names).
Fill out everything that the operator tells you to, except the last entry APN Type. Set the value in this field to "default". Save and exit this screen. You'll see radio buttons next to your 'New' APN. Just select it and your phone will recognize mobile data.
P.S. 3G/2G is used whenever the phone's radio detects the presense, so it doesn't matter what type of network you're on, as long is the APN is there.

the operator here just tells me mpulse for the name and mpulse.gta.net for the server.

Sprint Touch Pro2 unlocked, data not working T-Mobile

I unlocked my sprint touch pro 2, flashed the edited radio posted here for the sprint version, and now I'm using it on T-Mobile
Phone/Txt works
Internet doesnt work
I have tried internet2.voicestream.com APN, wap.voicestream.com and epc.tmobile.com
It always says "can't connect for unknown reason"
I left the username and password fields clear
Any suggestions?
Have you tried out the wireless configurator? I'm sure they won't have your exact phone, but the settings should be close enough.
dead link....
Got it to work, oddly enough I had to delete the connection, then create it again
Didn't change anything, just deleted it and made a new one with the same settings...
Hi there,
You're doing exactly what I've been trying to do but unable to. i have been unable to get a steady signal from T-Mobile, and the rare times that I did, generally I was unable to get data connection working.
Can you tell me exactly which APN settings worked for you? thanks.

This is what I did after I unlocked and flashed the edited radio (for the sprint version)
Go into Settings>Phone>Network, select GSM Only and select MANUAL
Select TMobile
after this you should be able to make phone calls and get txt
then go to settings>connections>connections, select the top one (should be tmobile data) and select "manage existing connections"
go to general, then click delete
create a new connection, name it whatever you want,select GPRS 3G, use APN internet2.voicestream.com , no suername or password just leave blank, click finish
now you should be able to connect

Hi there,
I did exactly as you described, but for the most part it's not working. I am guessing I have a radio problem. Which radio are you using? Thanks again.
James
some people have problems connecting with certain APNs on tmobile. first try ecp.tmobile.com that SHOULD work and its the newer apn that they made for 3g/smartphones to use so it should be faster EDGE. and if its not working delete all connection settings make a new one. no pass or username. IF it dont work no matter what contact tmobile they helped me when i had an att phone with them

I have the same issue. using 1.96uw radio and mighty rom and cant get the data to work. I have Tzone as my data plan.
Bumping Up Great Information
Just wanted to bump this for those of us who have the HTC Touch Pro 2 and for whatever reason the data stops connecting.

Mytouch 4G, will not connect to tmobile network

Ive got an mytouch 4g will not connect to any network, the person I got it from had it rooted to 2.3.3 but did not install the new radio, I installed the GB radio but it still wont connect, any ideas???

Bad SIM card.
no, tried 3 different sim cards, all the same response, 2 different mytouch 4G's with the same problem, only says limited service
I had a very odd issue similar to this after trying some different roms and then using CWM to restore my RG rom...
In short, I was only able to get service via wifi calling and while in my 'home' area. As soon as i left my home, I would loose all service while others maintained service just fine. If i didn't know any better, it would seem that my phone was locked to a specific tower.
It took a factory reset on the rom before I could get any service back while outside of my home market.
that almost sounds like the same issue, I can get wifi with no problem, just will not let me get service any other way, when I try to select tmobile from network selection it says your sim card will not let you get service
shot in the dark, but... did you check your apn settings???
how do I check apn settings?

I would grab a fresh rom, factory reset the device, flash the rom and reflash the radio. At this point, if you don't do so regularly, MD5 check what you download to ensure its as it should be.
If we go with the 'locked to a tower' assumption, when this happened to me, it appeared 'locked' to the tower it first connected to upon reboot. If you are not in that area now, it prob wouldn't connect.
Also, i have had nothing but problems when I attempted to apply the APN settings listed in forum posts. Just default them, see if it helps..
Settings> Wireless & Network> Mobile Networks> APN Settings > menu button, reset to default. But i think this only affects mms, internet and not the connection to the mobile network itself.
**edit**
I also received an error when attempting to manually connect or search to a mobile network.
factory reset, from cwm?
Yes. Once completed, i went ahead and reflashed the rom while still in CWM.
any other ideas if this doesnt work?
lol, brick it and call tmobile.. "its stuck in a bootloop"
another thought is to call tmobile and ask them essentially if they can reset your device in the towers. I worked for them (voicestream) like 12 years ago, the lingo has most likely changed but there maybe something in the system that is causing the problem..
I was able to see the problem go away once i factory reset, so I didn't bother. Just don't mention anything that could be noted as 'warranty voided'..
Typically, when I call, i give them just enough information to get them to do exactly what I want. They shouldn't care that you run a custom rom and they don't need to know.. just the fact that you cannot connect to the network should be information enough.

Sorry about the copy and paste but this seemed to be the one exception to the case, I would take a little time to look threw some of the rom settings. If this doesn't work send the phone back, it seems to me that's the last thing you want to do but if this doesn't work then you may have no choice but to and why waste more time.
i doubt this issue has anything to do with the apn settings as those only affect T-Mobile data, MMS and SMS. Even if they were completely wrong, the phone would still make a connection to the network for voice services.
When I got my mt4g with new simcard, I have to call tmo to reigster it.
Or perhaps the phone is simcard locked.

That's true, I had to do the same, I had a Blackberry prior to the MT4G and had to call and give them my IMEI and other info in order for them to activate my service, I got mine out right not through T-Mobile. I had to agree to the terms over the phone with CSR before I could do anything other than make calls.
Still I would think if he got the phone through T-Mobile and had the SIM sent with it as security goes you would still have to call in to verify you got the phone and call in the IMEI to be activated for that account.

See, this is the difference. You were able to connect to tmobiles network. OP is unable to get that far. There is no service, and even manually attempting to select a network resulted in an error.

The phone could be imei blockd. T-Mobile will do that if its lost or stolen. Or if the person who got it said he never got the package and they sent a new one. I kno this cuz my brother ripped of T-Mobile by sayin he didn't get a replacement and they blocked the one he said he didn't get. Try unlocking it and using a att sim

[Q] HTC Sensation

Hello All,
Looking for a bit of help. (Aren't we all?!?)
I have recently purchased a HTC Sensation in the UK. Original provider is Orange. I have achieved "S-Off" by following instructions on this site, and shortly after achieved the unlock by using method 2 on this forum. Everything seemed to work fine, except I have just noticed that with other providers SIM cards I no longer have a 3G signal as I do with the original SIM. Is this somethign that can be fixed, or am I stuck with the original provider?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'd be glad to give all the details of my phone, if anyone has any ideas of a solution. Thanks in advance!
JT
Nice, have you tried selecting the 3g networks from the mobile networks menu?
Nice phone. I think you must select it in the mobile network in the settings.
I had the same thing with my sensation that was locked to Vodafone, you have to go into wireless and network settings > mobile networks > access point names and if you dont have the network that your sim is using show up press menu > new APN and add the values for your network, just do a google search to find out what they are like if it was for orange just search "orange uk apn settings".
Hope this helps.
absolutly correct you need to add the correct APN settings I have had to do the same thing with my sensation

I am using it and no problem at all, If you insert the sim card you won't get the network bars until you enter the APN. To Enter the APN go to setting and Wireless&Networks in "More" Tab you can go Mobile networks then Access Point Names if no apn added the it will be blank,
Press the Option button which is located bottom right corner, press the option button and click on add New APN, Now you have to Enter the correct Info in the APN and save the APN after saving it you have to select the APN then it will work. You can get the APN info from you Mobile Service Provider. I hope it will Solve you Problem.

I'm also from Malaysia and eying at this model or other Fujitsu model, mainly because of the present of IR port on many Fujitsu models. But I won't buy it here for sure. It's not popular here and imagine the cost to own it. Japan or China markets are good way to start. :good:
Just bought this phone here in Japan to swap my SGS III alpha. I am using SoftBank's Black (iPhone) SIM Card after unlocked it. The problem is that I could not connected to the network (Internet) even I already set the APN (using smile.world), I used this setting with my SGS III alpha and had no problems in network. But, this phone seems it is not connected. Found on the Status that Mobile Network: UMTS and Mobile Network State: Disconnected.
I had searched this kind of problem on forums, webs, and chats without having any luck.
Please is there someone have any solution to solve this.
Thanks in advance...

@ari3lz: After factory unlocked this phone at Docomo shop it will noted Sim Unlock below Sim Lock, not the mark (-) as showed on your screenshot. It also needs to put Docomo Sim card into the phone just after unlocked it. It's better to ask the seller if the phone already factory unlock or not. Many sellers on internet (rakuten, Yahoo Auction, Amazon.co.jp) they will say it could be unlocked and assumed that we can unlocked it by ourselves, just like my case I bought it from Yahoo auction and I unlocked to Docomo shop.
Hi,
Please how does one enable internet on this phone?
I have added my network APN and I can use the network but I do not get any internet connection on the network.
Connection to network
I would like to thank hifi.madness for your info on how to connect Fujitsu to our service providers.
The only issue that I have is how to root it or get into Service Menu.
do you have any idea or suggestion?

[Q] 3g issue

Hello there, i just got this phone 3 weeks ago and since i have wifi i didnt test the 3g conection before. i activated a data pack and i just realized that my 3g doesnt come on at all. the screen shows 4g left side of the signal strengh but it doesnt work at all. i got at&t version. i confirmed with my carrier and i did activate data, they even helped me to set up the apn but is still not working. can you helpe me? thanks!
PD: they said they couldnt have done more because they dont support that type of device
Does it say 4G or 4G LTE? The at&t icons are a bit different I'd you're not used to them.
4G = hspa
4G LTE = LTE
So if you're getting the 4G icon you are actually getting 3G hspa speeds.
Sent from my Evita
If another carrier besides AT&T, you will need to find the APN settings for your carrier and manually enter it into Settings>Mobile network settings>Access point names. Select "New APN" and enter the correct settings for your manufacturer.
The 4G icon simply means a network is present, it doesn't mean you are connected to it.
thank you for helping people. whel actualy i wouldnt mind getting 3g network access, the point is that i dont have internet access at all. i called my carrier (Claro - El salvador) and they helped me to set up the apt but is still not working. i was wondering if there is something else i could try to fix this
nevermind, i finally fixed it
Please share the fix so the information is available for anyone who might have the same problem in the future.

sorry. well, first i did master reset, once done i set up an apn (carrier provides you with this info), then went to mobile network > network operators > select automatically. once the device found the "CLARO" network i turned data on and got internet service.
Thankyou, these threads live on long after we're finished with them so it's important to have the information readily available for future troubleshooters.

I'm guessing you either had not entered the APN info exactly correctly the first time. Or also, after entering the APN you actually have to select it as the "active" one on the list of APNs (making sure it has the colored dot next to it). Maybe it did need a factory reset, but this shouldn't be necessary just to change APN.
Happy you got it figured out.
