Did you try with both wifi and data network?
Remainder of my comments assume problem with data network ...
you can have a problem if the wrong name at settings/wireless & network/mobile_networks/access_point_names although I forget how to find the correct name.
Sorry if I misunderstood your question.
With it being a go phone sim you will have to go into att store and tell them the problem. They have to enable the 4g data on it.

I am about to travel overseas. I'm not going for long enough to warrant getting a PASYG sim but will have near constant access to wifi. I'm with t-mo USA and have wifi calling set up and use Google voice for texting and vm. What's the easiest way to turn voice and mobile data off but keep wifi on? Best solution I could think of was to take the sim out, are there other better options?
Idk about your phone since im an evo owner but you should be able to turn on airplane mode on your phone and have wifi on at the same time. I do it quite often on my evo actually. So you will have all your carriers radios off so no charges, and still use voice for calls and texts.
Try doing it really quick and report back if u can or can't so I can try to help with another solution

Edit: ok so this is not perfect. Wifi calling is disabled when in airplane mode, which IMO is stupid. I guess they are trying to get some roaming fees if you leave the Intl wifi signal.
Going to try wifi calling with the sim out.
All but wifi. And no problem

If there is no t-mo sim card, wifi calling is also disabled. I tried with no sim and a UK PAYG sim both same result, no wifi calling.
Well that's two good options that should work but don't.
Ok I found a solution. Send me a pm and I will type you a guide and some screen shots in the afternoon tomorrow. I have to go to bed for work in the morning. So once I get off ill send you instructions on how to do it.

Ok I have a rooted and unlocked mytouch 4G slide running on Cincinnati bell. I have service but no data connection. Is there anything I can do to get the data connection to work. Would a different radio work?
you need edit some network codes on the sim card. I would just call them and ask, normally the carriers are helpful in resolving the issues.
Are they using the same network as T-Mobile? Also, you may get more help at rootzwiki.

Would this just be a case of going into the settings and entering the CB APN settings?
Assuming you have a wifi connection, go into the market place and download an application called tweakker. Yes, two ks. Anyways, just use that and pick Cincinnati Bell along with the correct plan, and you should be ready to go.
Thanks I'll try some of these out

Ok so i have data now. I just set up a APN. Now just no pic mrssages
Ok so I got the Infuse today. Go ME! The screen is sooo much better than my captivate's, if that's possible.
So I take the SIM card out of my old Captivate that I got this time last year. I have the 2GB plan for it. But only now, my Infuse 4g has no data connection even after letting sit for a few minutes.
I did some looking around here at different APN settings and they didn't seem to do anything except cut off my Phone service. Some other people suggested my data plan might not be up to par. But I have a data plan for the Captivate that I activated when I got that phone. Are the phone's data plans really that different that I have to call AT&T to resolve it?
The phone is totally stock, no flashes done to it, hasn't had root attempted on it yet. Brand New out of the box.
You have to call att to have it switched from 3g to 4g I had the same problem they had me give them some numbers and put some numbers in my phone then everything worked.

Ah. Thanks then, that should be easy enough then. Too bad its today though, even the non US tech support is closed till tomorrow.
If u used the sim out of ur captivate u need a new sim because infuse is 4g and captivate is 3g(it makes a difference some over the phone tech doesn't know better). I had this problem

Im pretty sure that dont make a difference. I still use my sim from when the razr was still in att. But anything is possible

Call them and have them switch the data plan. I had the same issue. You don't need a new sim or even add anything to the settings. Its also no price change.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
Yup, happened to me. Switched from a BB Bold, att had to switch my plan at no charge.
You don't have to call and switch...I came from a 3g phone to this one with no issues...you have to put your sim card in you may have to reboot a couple times for it to recognize it....it worked for me
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
press and hold power button ..make sure data mode is on ..(or is this only if youre rooted)?
did you get it through att with a new contract.. they would have sent you a new sim??
i used my new sim when i first got mine when upgrading from captivate.. dont know if old sim worked or not i just switched it when i got the phone.
what firmware came on your phone?? must know!!
Go to settings>mobile networks >apn settings and see if you have an apn ....it may have been deleted by accident...happened on my daughters captivate....easy fix...just add the apn ....

Ok so I just got this phone from Verizon and I did not now that the service would suck, I've been all through the settings bad even using roaming apps but nothing seems to allow me to roam and get a decent reception...
Does anybody know how to unlock the roaming option from the settings?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Have you tried using "Roam Control" app? There is no setting built in to force the roam feature.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
dude, i just went thru the same exact thing today. i even went totally stock, kernel, recovery and everything, still stuck in roaming.
i spent hours then i did the factory reset code on the dialer ( *#7780# (Factory Reset) ) and it worked again, i was so happy because i was thinking that i have to deal with the bs with sending the phone back or getting a new sim if that was the case. i hope it works for you also.
EDIT: i thought you were stuck roaming, not that u wanted to roam hahhahaha nevermind

I did try and also used the phone info app to see if I was roaming but nothing changes.
Is there any way to update the Prl? To see if a different prl will give me better reception

Go to settings then data usage and hit menu and you can turn roaming on.

Adding onto what eksasol said, you MUST have a new ATT LTE sim, it will NOT work if you have a sim purchased before Sept 13 (when ST launched LTE).
You can get the new sim directly from ST for like 7 bucks last i checked. Good luck!
