[Q] No sim data working - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have installed various custom roms and so far having no luck with my Sim data 3g. Wifi connection is ok but the sim data is not working. I can see that my carrier is detected and that is all.
I have attached a screenshot of the specs im using. As i have said- i have tried various roms and still cannot get this final issue fixed.

thanks for the tip, although i have checked and triple checked. Its not the fix here. The icon picks up my mobile provider which is good however its the 3g data that is not working. I should have updated the subject line to - no 3G data working on this rom

You can't do MMS over wifi, you'll have to switch to mobile data to do MMS. It should work normally, but I've found that MIUI and MMS don't really go together when you're on wifi.

Ok I see. I turned off WiFi and of course my data doesn't work. I thought MIUI/CM7 fixed the loss of apn (data) issue ? Although I can make calls, I can not use data over the mobile network unless I remove my battery and reboot with WiFi off. This sucks.

Yup! I can successfully connect. But my apns have data and mms as different profiles. So I think its switching to mms then before it sends properly it tries switching back to data? I don't think there's a way to combine the two apns for wind mobile. But it works fine on weapon :s any more clues??
Thanks for your help so far!!

APNs are like that. One APN for data, one for mms.

Hmm I noticed in #*#*4636*#*# that my phone is constantly switching between data and mms. I've tried deleting the mms that I'm sending but the phone still constantly switches between the two. Anyone have any reasons?
Sent from my Flashback HC-TAB using XDA Forum App
I just checked and once I try and send an mms it locks the phone in this vicious cycle of switching between internet and mms apn settings. Then a reboot fixes it. Anyone else experience this? I'm not sure if or how I can give more detailed info.
i dont have any issue, but sometime when phone goes through dead spot and radio crashes.. where it stay stuck in no service, you flick on plane mode and it doesn't effect it. So you'd have to reboot in order to get your service back. Otherway around that is you go in mobile network and select your network, but apns will disappear. :d SO just reboot.

Would it be too much trouble to ask you how did you fix this? some of us are dealing with this issue and we will appreciate if you can give us the solution since there's no patch or fix out there
thanks
I looked around and found that mms doesn't work over wifi, regardless of rom or root or anything. It seems the tmo servers need to make a data connection in order to start mms send. I've never had a problem receiving mms over wifi, but sending seems not possible.
Edit: As far as receiving, I enabled "auto retrieve"and have had no problems receiving mms on wifi.

I'm not using WiFi to send MMS and after checking the APNs I found two one says epc.t-mobile.com and the other one says simple with proxy settings in it... did a hard reboot, reboot, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache and still have the same issue, very frustrating

[Q] 727R - Sky Cream Sandwich - No Data Connection

Hey There,
Have a Rogers (canada) version of the I727R, I followed all the instructions to root and get SkyIceCream v7.2 up and running. Looks great but the data connection did not work after I made the updates. Wouldn't connect through the browser or market.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
APN?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Check under your mobile network settings, if you have an lte plan set your apn name to ltemobile.apn
sky cream sandwich sets your apn to the non lte apn name... And if you have an lte plan that won't work.

I went into Network Settings and made sure the LTE option was set. But that didn't solve it. Is that what you mean by APN?
Sorry n00bish question.

Go to Settings -> Wireless and network -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names
Do you see it set to ltemobile.apn or another server? If it's not ltemobile.apn, you'll need to add it so click the Menu button and choose new APN to add it.
I will give this a shot tonight.. Thanks!

Network Icons?
Guys, not the same issue here as my network seems to be working and connecting properly. For some reason though all network icons at the top are gone. The only think I have is the battery icon. No wifi, 4g, network, nothing.
Any thoughts?

Not receiving sms while roaming

Anyone else have the problem of not being able to receive text messages while roaming? I'm in an area where I am constantly switching back and forth between not-roaming and roaming and I only seem to get texts when I am on T-mobile's towers. Any thoughts or comments? Thanks
Did you select in messaging app settings to receive messages while roaming?

Yes I did. Isn't that only for mms and not SMS though? The only roaming setting is under the mms section
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Yes, as far as I know, it's only for MMS, because you are supposed to receive SMS anytime when you have a network.
1- Did you flash a new rom recently? If so, I'd suggest you to reflash the rom and try again.
2- You could try to go under your carrier settings and choose manually your carrier.
3- If it doesn't work, contact your carrier's technical support to see if it could be something that is disabled in your account regarding roaming.

I have flashed most of the roms for this phone and it seems to do it regardless of the rom. What are the carrier settings that you are talking about?

Under Wireless & network settings > Mobile network settings > Network operators. You could try to play with these settings (mobile network settings) to see if it works one way or another. Now, if you tried several roms and it still doesn't work, it may be a hardware problem or a network problem (T-Mobile). I would try to fix it with the settings first, and if the problem persists, call tech support.

Ok, I have played with those settings. I just wasn't sure which ones you were talking about originally. The kicker is I'm in an area (Orono, ME) where I am constantly switching between T-mobile and USA Unicel (roaming) and if I set those Network Operator settings to just T-mobile then I get service in certain areas and then nothing in others. I guess I'll just have to try customer support unless someone can come up with another possible solution.

Problem with Skyrocket in india

Hi,
I have a galaxy skyrocket i727 from AT&T with last Gingerbread firmware(2.3.6 from at&t).Now i am in india.Recently i did a factory reset and now i have lost data connectivity(though i get full signal and can do calls or messages).
Even before i used to select frequency bands manually to swap between 2g-3g by dialling *#*#197328640#*#* and i used to get data fine.As there is no such option of selecting 'gsm only' or "wcdma preffered/gsm" in wireless&networks menu of the AT&T Firmware.
So the main question is if i put the unofficial ICS ROM like AOKP or UCALC4 than will i get this 2G to 3G selection in settings?Will the phone select indian frequency bands automatically?
thanks!
You may have lost your apn and that's why you can't get data, check under settings mobile network apn if there is anything there(I think that's how it goes in GB) if there isn't check your provider's site or call them and ask how you should configure it.
About your second question, it depends on what rom you will flash, some support it and some don't.

Thanks for replying!
My APN is ok.I requested new apn after deleting older ones and even did a manual "Add new apn" perfectly.Thats why i am asking this question ,because there is no reason for getting "no data".Everything is perfect except that there is no "E" or "H" symbol with up-down arrows beside the network strength bars!
Stupid question but did you enable data?

yeah dude!Obviously!
enabled - disabled it several times!rebooted after selecting apn etc etc But no good
Well sometimes we ignore the obvious so I had to ask. Check your apn again to be sure, make sure the internet apn and not mms apn is checked if you have 2, and it's defined as internet or internet+mms in case of one combined apn.
If this wont fix it something must have happened in the factory reset and you should try upgrading to ICS and see if it still works.
Hey.. BTW I have a question for you , how did you unlock your phone yo use it in India ? I know there are unlock codes, just curious if you got it from at&t or you had to go the eBay way ?

unlocked via z3x box....a tool used by unlockers.Had a friend of mine who owned it.It unlocks all samsungs for free!!
- You need to be SIM Unlocked and have a RAT Unlocked Radio (HINT: Roger I-727R radios)
and
- You need a ROM to support those, if you using TouchWiz I have supported this always from the beg. im my
ROM (see my sig.)
And I do travel there once a quarter, no issues for me. I have an IDEA Card and it works perfect, even ROAMING to 3G where IDEA piggy backs on other providers..

when i initially read your name ,i guessed you were indian!
Thanks for the reply.I just flashed the sk8erwitskil,s Latest Cyanogenmod 9 with UCLF6 libs just to check if i was able to switch radios,but right now i am in "2G/gsm only" area.Data is working fine,but cannot turn on wifi...it keeps saying "turning on".
My phone is sure sim-unlocked on idea network,and on UCLF6 Modem(is this thing same as a "radio"?).Initially i was on stock at&t GB firmware.Btw ,which place in india do u travel?
If wifi error persists i will flash EMBRYO Rom

Network Mode(2G/3G)

Hi Omni Team,
Can we have the option of swtiching network mode(2G/3G/LTE) in the mobile settings? This is required for switching network for battery saving and selectively change network depending on the area the user is currently.
This option is there in most AOSP ROMS(CM, AOKP).
Thanks for reading this request.
Thanks,
Kunal
The last time i checked it, the network mode was a flippable quick tile...

Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
Just a thought, not sure if it is connected but I previously had the option to change between 2g only/ 3g only/ and 2g with 3g preferred. Today I switched carriers from t-mobile UK to giffgaff and also performed OTA update if latest nightly and the option now doesn't let you choose and only has 2g/3g prefered.
Not sure whether it had to do with the update or changing carrier.
