Help! Data Not working! - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
My mobile data isnt working. I have flashed my ns4g to boost mobile but need to get data working. I have active profile on 0 (in qpst) Can anyone tell me how to get data working?
Since its flashed should it come up as 3g instead of 4g? How do I turn on data?
If anybody could help or lead me in the right direction that would be great

hey there,
have you made sure that you are data enabled? under network settings.
have you flashed a costume rom?
i also suggest to make sure your apn setting are correct.

Been told yuu to gtalk me for the guide....its a simple step by step process...can't post it here cuz I'll probably get banned ...

[Q] Downgrade from Kirillos to JPS

Hi all,
I want to send my phone so I need to downgrade to original firmware. I use odin and averything goes well but data connection (packet data) not working.
Any way to fix this ?
Is there an APN in your Mobile Networks settings?
Yes, and they looks good. Phone works like if wirless connection is active and not switch data on.
no problem!
just send your phone wherever you need to, then when you get it back, flash any custom Rom you like and you'll be rolling again Or else, you should reflash the xxjpm and you'll be able to use your data again. Tell me if it helped

I can`t enable internet in MIUI

After installing MIUI I can`t enable data transfer (2g/3g internet). Data transfer is turning on, but there is no 2g/3g logo and internet. This happens after installing all MIUI stock and custom roms. APN settings is correct, before it was ok. I`m installing via Clockwork recovery v5. Device is G2x (P999)
What should I do? How to enable it?
I believe for the g2x you should see an H next to the bars, that is if you are in a good service area.
Otherwise I think it also shows G, and E.
If it doesn't have anything at all, then I'm not sure.
Does the internet work when you go inti the browser?

try reflashing the faux kernel it worked for me to fix a problem i had not being able to turn my wifi on it should work for you too
what i have a problem is the backupp app does nto work for me im runing rg2x miui by richie

I`ve tried SINGH UI too, as I remember wi-fi is on by defalut, isn`t it? So, I turned it off, and use my phone few days. Rebooted it few times, but data not worked ((
I had this problem before, go to ur APNs and go to authentication and make the authentication "None" instead of "Not set". That will enable ur data

Hey go to SETTINGS->MOBILE NETWORKS->ACCESS POINT NAMES-> in here select option button in your android phone, in the menu select NEW APN, you will get the APN settings as seen in this. In the link ACCESS NUMBER = SERVER in mobile.
As I am not allowed to post link for first ten TIMES! will guide you through
google search -> "vodafone apn address" the third result will be GPRS APN Settings with Username and Password - Modem Unlock. Click it and follow the method above mentioned.

Please help - Cyanogen Nightmare! Can't connect to cell network

EDIT: RIGHT AFTER POSTING, MY PHONE RANDOMLY STARTED WORKING. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I DID BESIDES POST HERE. MAGIC.
I installed Cyanogen version 7.2.0 just fine using the guide that was found here: http://www.mrmuh.com/2012/01/update-a-motorola-milestone-from-motorola-firmware-to-cyanogenmod-7/
However, the next morning I think I enabled the 2g/3g switch widget - and then my phone entered into a constant and continuous loop of "com.android.phone has unexpectedly closed" - and couldn't connect to cell service.
In a panic, I searched everywhere for fixes. I then tried a few of the fixes which instructed you to download "sqlite editor" and do some edits to the settings file. I did this, along with a couple of other network edits, resetting them to "0" instead of the "1" they were currently set to. No help.
Finally, I went into the Open Recovery system and did a full reset on cache/factory reset/etc. and then rebooted into cyanogen. Now my network won't even connect for a half a second and then crash like before - just straight up NO CONNECTION.
Now I've went through and attempted changing back some of those settings I messed around with in Sqlite - but to no avail.
Anyone with any ideas on how I can get an operating phone again, please let me know. I noticed I still have all my apps from previously, so I don't think I'm really factory resetting the phone. That could be part of the issue, I'm sure....I am very depressed and hoping for a miracle!!
Look into installing minimod recovery and then flashing the correct radio for your location after a full wipe.
If you do a google search you should find minimod. I'm on my phone or I would just link you.

OK Thanks for your reply.
However, randomly, just after I posted this - I looked down and my phone had a full 2G Connection. Went into baseband settings, enabled 850 band 3G, and now I have full 3G connectivity.
I have no clue how this happened. XDA forum is magical?
Thanks again for your reply, but thankfully I don't need the minimod suggestion as of now!!
You're welcome. You might want to go ahead and install minimod though. I made the mistake of not having it installed and flashed a new rom without the ability to select bands and was without a phone all day. It's better safe than sorry.

Go download a apndroid.apk Google it.
that happened to me too

Pretty sure I messed up my phone and I need some help with possibly fixing it

I followed the super guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709) to a T and got cm9 on my phone. I was having data issues last night so I downloaded that Phone Info app from the Play Store. I changed some settings to try to improve it. It switched my data over to roaming and I haven't been able to get it out of there. When my phone tries to activate, it tries to go through Metro. Anyone have any idea what this is all about or how to fix it?
I once got stuck on cdma through phone info.. it wouldnt stick to lte ...i had to flash the stock image in odin to fix it.

I'm having the same issue as you. was using CM9 for a while and I think I was messing around with some of the mobile network settings and it never quite worked well again. I used odin to flash to stock rom and nothing. new SIM from verizon store and still nothing.
haven't tried the phone info apk though.

Packet data not working on CyanogenMod 10.1 on Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500

Hi, I've been using packet data on my phone (Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500) with stock firmware ever since I go my phone.
I've been trying to install CyanogenMod 10.1 for 3 days, and I can not get packet data to work; I have created the APN as should be for my network provider, but nothing happens; it looks like the phone does not even try connecting to the 3G APN.
Is there anything specifc to be done in order to get packet data working again?

I had seen that post of yours already and I had tried it, in vain. Mine seems to be a different problem altogether; it looks like my phone does not even try connecting through the packet data APN for some reason.
When I'm on that screen (*#*#4636#*#* --> Phone Info), there's a field in there which says "Data Attempts: 0". I even tried accessing the menu on that screen, and there was "Enable data connection", I thought that would do the trick, but nada!
Is there some way I can debug this to see why the phone is not using the Data APN?
Ah, by the way, I have also tried with CM-10, same problem. When I revert back to stock firmware, works perfectly.

As far as i know you are the only 1 i saw who have this problem, others are low connection only. You sure you set your apn correctly? Note your apn setting in stock then flash cm check the apn setting if it is the same on the stock. Or just try to reflash the rom and make sure you follow the installation guide in op.
Try also to consult others maybe they can help.

Well, like I said, after I saw that Packet Data was not working on CM-10.1, I flashed to stock firmware; I created the same APN with the exact same settings as on 10.1, it worked fine; I thought I'd try CM-10 this time, so I did, and I created the same APN again, doesn't work; now I have reinstalled 10.1, with the hope that we come up with a solution soon.
Is there anyway I can see some connection debugging? Using adb, or otherwise? There must be a reason why the phone is not choosing the packet data APN, right?
Edit: I don't know if this could help, but I'm from a tiny island in the Indian Ocean called Mauritius. My operator is Emtel, and you can see the settings for Android on their website (emtel.mu/android). Based on that page, I am supposed to set up the APN as follows:
- For Name, enter WEB
- For APN, enter web
- For APN Type select Internet
- Leave all other entries blank
- Save

On stock firmware, I do have a drop-down to 'Select Internet' for APN type. On CM-10 and CM-10.1 however, I don't have the drop-down; I have only a textfield; could that be a problem?

Ok, so I was able to fix it in a very simple way; I checked out this post (showthread.php?t=2316943), and in there they tell you how to manually modify the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file; I checked it and went through it, checking how the other APNs were set up; it turns out I just had to change APN Type to "Default" instead of "Internet" as specified on Emtel's website.
It now works!
Thanks for trying to help , ANDROID-000.
Just for clarification; I ended up not needing to modify the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file manually; I just changed the APN Type from the interface.
