so i just got my infuse 4g today, switching from a captivate. anyways as soon as i moved my sim card over network would register but internet wouldnt work.
(no symbol 3g edge etc...)
in my captivate net worked no problem.
anyways do you think its a sim card problem?
i flashed infuse rom & it didnt fix the no internet issue, also packet data is enabled.
should i flash stock and take it to a store? also whats the newest stock version out on the phone?
You need a 4g enabled similar card. That's what ATT told me
.......infuse.....Infused....infusion.........
Captivate is 3g Infuse is 4g different so you have to change your data plan to a 4g one the sim will work. What's strange is once you change your plan you can still use the sim in a Captivate
CM7, Nightly. Captivate

Go to wireless and network settings and check the APNs there. Could be a case of missing APN.
Funny you brought this up. Got my Infuse Sunday, rooted, flashed life was great. I was at home, so was using wifi to save dataplan usAge. Well, today at work no internet. Just got off phone with att . Changed to 4g data plan(same price) and 4g is on! Using my original sim from 2004.

no no no.. you are all incorrect
no!!! you dont have to get a 4g plan.. the problem is the same i had as with my sgs ii.. the default apn in the phone assumes you have the 4g plan enabled and will not work without it..
add a new apn as follows and reboot and activate it and i should work fine..
also this still works with pseudo 4g ie h+ also, and works with family plan unlimted data.

I was aware of that but chose to offer the simplest of the two options.
Yes it's not difficult to change apn but it is still easyer to change the plan, and there had been some issues early on after the inspire was released with changing apn while still on the old Data plan

Only real drawback is if you're on the unlimited plan, they try to make you go to tiered, don't let them.

fortunately i ended up being able to keep my unlimited plan but she changed it so that tt was 4G based. (and it worked, strangely she changed it nothing, so i flashed stock then it worked, then i just flashed a rom again lol)
everything works now so im happy

When i started using my Skyrocket i noticed my data was very patchy(would work here and there and not let me open certain websites and speedtest.net app was not connecting at all). I looked into the APN settings and noticed it said "PTA". I looked into this and found out that it was for the new LTE network. I do not live near a LTE area nor do i think ill be getting it anytime soon(i live in south new jersey). So i googled at&t hspa+ settings and found this forum that gave the settings for hspa+ and mms and rebooted my Skyrocket. Boom! Ping times down to 80 and speedtest.net app connects asap. Every single thing i do that involves internet is instant. If you dont have LTE in your area i highly recommend doing this.

I live in Maine, we don't even have "4g", let alone lte. I have not messed with my APN settings and data has been flawless for me. I get 3.5-4mb consistently at my house (3g) where I used t get anywhere from 500kb-2.5mb, with a rare spike of 3mb. I also have yet to try anything data wise on my phone that was "blocked" or didn't work.
This temporary solve the problem. At&t is behind this. Take a look at your plan. From I'm seen the Unlimited plan I was grandfather in has restrictions impulse . The 2GB data plan said you could freely stream, search ect. Calling at&t wtf is this BS. Piss off
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Data speeds vary so widely depending on 100's of factors. The "speedtest" apps themselves are barely reliable, you can run them 5 times in a row and get huge variations. You can't get true results based on one 5 second download. One time I get 10ms ping and 5 seconds later I get 9,500ms. One time I get .2Kbps and 5 seconds later I get 9MBps download.
Most of these speed test results and their fixes are just smoke and mirrors and the "results" are totally meaningless because they will vary from one SECOND to the next.

Yep, it's probably to get you off the unlimited plan.
Just call AT&T and tell them what kind of bull**** is this, ***** for a long time, threaten to cancel your service and go to Verizon for an LTE network that's faster (lies) and spread out more, and I'm sure they'll come to some agreement.
I am on an an unlimited plan i have had many phones that never had this issue and my data was consistant. I knew it had to do with the APN. FOR ME this worked. It seemed like my skyrocket was picky about websites and facebook did not want to refresh and the issue with the soeedtest.net app wasnt its accuracy it simply would not connect AT ALL. It just never found a connection. When i would use wifi everything worked perfect for me and still does. I did not delete the stock APN so when lte comes around ill just go back but for now im back to my normal CONSISTANT bandwidth. And im clocking faster speeds at my house than any other phone ive used

I am on an LTE data plan but I don't have LTE in my area so I tried switching this too. I was unable to get MMS to work, although my MMS works fine on both the pta apn and the wap.cingular apn.
to prove that it's "at&t conspiracy" to make grandfathered user to switch...
Anyone using the PTA APN with the 2GB "Unlimited" Plan have issues going to sites like.. say www.justin.tv?
I personally think the PTA APN is restricted and has NOTHING to do with which plan someone has.
Find someone with a 2GB Plan and ask them to use the PTA APN and see if they can get to ... www.justin.tv

good so we can lay this to rest that
1) the new PTA APN is restricted, and it DOES NOT matter if you have an unlimited grandfather plan or a 2GB plan. it's JUST AT&T blocking certain website
2) there is NO secret/conspiracy with AT&T trying to get unlimited grandfather plan people to switch to the 2GB plan, because regardless which plan one has, if you are using the PTA APN... it's restricted.
I added the apn to my list and now I can access the Justin.TV site. Thanks for the input.

Lte settings please
I've got a rooted skyrocket and have been given the runaround too many times by AT&T reps. The most recent time was last morning, when I asked for an old iPhone to be unlocked (as per their own statement)
I've decided to get the SAME coverage at half the price ($45).
All I'd like (not really need though), is the APN settings for the LTE network, if they have that, cause I live in an AT&T LTE city
Thanks in advance

Just skip anything not listed.
LTE seems to cause less of a load on their network. I assume so because ATT has a higher limit on LTE, and cause verizon has been giving, grandfathered in, unlimited users, a free LTE phone. Well, those with very high data usage.
This makes me assume that they would want the same for the usage of MVNOs. That would cause them to have a ST LTE option.
These may have been a series of compounded assumptions (which is never a good idea), but i wish someone would look into it

I have heard that doing the right mix between Straight Talk and AT&T LTE settings it has worked in areas of course where there is LTE but i am not sure if it was using a AT&T sim and registering it to Straight Talk or if it was just use a reg Straight Talk sim. Any ways i have seen people doing it but no one sharing info so i will try and test things as you should and if anyone gets it working pls share as that the purpose of this comunity

This works for my stock Inspire (red) using a gophone sim. I don't get LTE, but I get HSPA+ at speeds as fast as 5-9 mbps at a cheap prepaid price.
im starting to lean toward a bad sim card?
its a HTC Inspire & it did work with other android phones, I called gophone & they said they dont have web for 4g phones i means if i dont get lte service it doesnt matter i just want to update facebook status or check email. wats your APN for gophone to try that
Here are mine. Mind you this is for a reg gophone not a Pick your plan.

have you tried contacting them directly? I think they may be better at helping you with their service imo
no offense to zel of course.
I still am thinking the sim card is improperly configured on thier end and you should try getting a new one
I did call & this is what they said, we do not support 4G phones thats all they said i asked if there was some way unlocking it or something & they said no that they dont support 4g phones & they cant do anything about it.
i have a go phone pantech cell phone & the internet works fine there 2 so i dont know wats the problem wat should i do
You have to buy one of the data packs. The 50 unlimited is for non smart phones, smart phones require a separate data package try the smallest one and see if it works. I have a gophone Sim in my galaxy s2 and have no problems with data just don't get LTE.

Does anyone know what the correct settings are for APN to get data and MMS working for the G2x with Staight Talk and a CM7 stable build ROM?
I have tried literally everything, and nothing works. I briefly saw Edge network for about 3 minutes one morning, but that's it. No 4G and no MMS.
Please let me know ASAP. Thanks so much!!
Apparently I have to post ten times before entering "outside links" (even though they're APN settings). So here goes a bunch of annoying bumps...
And I have to wait five minutes between each post? This is ungodly annoying. Anyway, here's the APN settings, sort of:

Authentication Type: Not set
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enabled (tick mark checked but grayed out anyways)
Bearer: Unspecified
Because of this boards overly aggressive anti spam security, I had to put some of the characters in the addresses above in parentheses. Just remove the start and end parenthesis to deduce the setting.
I still am utterly lost as to why they need email verification + captcha + no web links + wait five minutes between posts. The captcha itself would suffice.

Well that's good to know. But I thought I could pick between T-mobile and AT&T with the same SIM, yes? I just have to choose the right MVNO, which it seems you're saying is the T-mobile one, yes?
Any and all help is very much appreciated!
No. You need a T-Mobile straight talk sim to get 4g service. With att straight talk sim you will only get edge. They give different sims for each gsm provider.

Call them and see if they will send another sim, its worth a shot..
And technically gsm compatible phone could be att or T-Mobile. I think they assume att though because att provides better coverage.

Well, I got the new SIM (they didn't offer to send me one, btw), and I put in this information:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
Left everything else default/blank and sure enough, still no data. I just transferred the service over to the new SIM, so I hope this is just some sort of delay that is normal (the website says it could take 24 hours, but this seems kind of bizarre to me). Can anyone confirm?
