Looks like I'll have to try the T-Mobile sim and hope it works or switch to simple mobile

[Q] Newly Unboxed Phone has no data

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 ....

No 4g only 3g is this happening to anyone else?

So I got my Dev RAZR HD from Motorola about three weeks ago. As soon as I got it I unlocked the bootloader voiding my warranty, and last night it dropped down to 3g. I can't get 4g for the life of me. I toggled data on and off. I've factory reset. I've flashed the stock image. Removed Sim put Sim back in. I even called Verizon who ran me through all the things that I just mentioned then they told me it was probably hardware related and that I would be screwed since I chose to unlock my bootloader and void my warranty.
My wife's sgs3 is still getting great 4g reception and if I take my Sim out and put it in another phone like my galaxy nexus I get 4g. I am at a loss.
Has anyone else has this issue and do you know a fix if so.

That's strange. Have you tried getting 4g other places? And i know you said the SIM card is good but maybe putting a new one in? I don't know, if it is hardware, that sucks.
I tried putting my wife's sim card in and that worked I got 4g so I'm hoping its just a bad sim card

Sounds like a provisioning error on the card specific to the Maxx.
It was the sim card.

I just got a used razr hd from swappa and am having the same problem, using the sim that came with my gnex. If I install LTE on/off from play, I can put the phone in LTE only mode and it works just fine, but then no calls, with the same SIM in my gnex and tbolt, they both get LTE without a problem.
Stupid question but did you activate the phone?

wouldn't it not work at all if it wasn't activated? I've used this SIM for over a year with a gnex just fine
I just mean have you gone to the Verizon website and switched your activated phone to the HD.

I don't see any option to change device without an upgrade, but it does still show galaxy nexus.
That's why I think. You need to log in as the account holder. Then under "my verizon" at the top there will be a switch/activate option.

it was the SIM, went by the store and got it swapped to a new one and it went right to LTE

Hi,
Having Razr HD, German O2 Version, but installed Retail ROM (4.1.2; 98.22.16001.XT925.Retail.en.DE; Baseband: VANQUISH_U_BP_100700.250.66.01P). Having phon now for 3 days, never any LTE on Vodafone SIM... I should have coverage where I live, so something seems to be wrong... Anyone here with working LTE with Vofdafone Germany?
Thanks,
DerRider
UPDATE: solved the problem: I have an Ultracard from Vodafone and only the primary card works with LTE. The hotline could have told me this, when I called them Saturday to confirm my SIM is activated for LTE... damn, what a waste of time... Solutions was so simple.

Only able to get 3g

Just got my replacement in the mail and i cannot connect to 4g. My s3 I had replaced had 4g every where I went..
I haven't done anything to the phone its just been on 3g since out of the box.
My network mode is on CDMA/LTE so I should have 4g
Verizon walked me thought the trouble shooting nothing worked.
Any suggestions guys? Have any clue what the problem could be?

Just for kicks, I would turn on airplane mode and let sit a second then turn it back off and see if it does any good. If not power off, pull battery, sim, sdcard let sit for 30 secs to a min with nothing installed. Then put sim, sd, and battery back in and restart. The 4g data is refreshed with the sim being pulled.
Good luck,

Just to check you are Verizon? If so under about device just below prl there is a eri it should be 5 anything else will cause trouble. Are you on stock rom, rooted, unlockef bootloader?

No 4g or 3g Data?

First of all, I'm stock and running faux kernel. I started experiencing this problem yesterday when I had no data and I was outside (Where I usually get 4g speeds). Now I either get 1x data speeds or none. Is there any solution for this problem like hard reseting or something

That sounds like either a Verizon problem, or sometimes your phone wants to revert to an evdo state if it can't get a 3g or 4g signal.
Download the phone info app, and open it and click device information, make sure it says lte/cdma/evdo and not evdo only.
Sometimes the setting won't stick, so in that case I would either flash a new rom or go back to stock with Odin, ota update, and reroot again.
If it says lte/cdma/evdo, then I think it has something to do with verizons end.

Actually I tried something else... I took my sim card out of my s3 and put it into a friends verizon s3 and the data didn't work on his phone but once I put his sim card onto my s3, I had 4g and many speeds I thought never existed. So what does that mean?

Pulling your SIM helped your phone to relock onto Verizon towers. It just essentially resetted the prl, glad you got it working fairly easily.

Not exactly, because my s3 for some reason got 4g and 3g when I inserted my friends SIM card onto mine but on his s3, his data was acting like mine because he had my SIM in his s3... so that draws me in one conclusion, my SIM is damaged

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!
