My provider accidentally blocked my sim card. Today I got them to unlock my card again and everything works ok except for mobile data. I tried manually setting up my APN settings and to update them via a profilr you can request via SMS.
Now, everytime I turn on mobile data, my 3G icon in the status bar disappears and I cannot connect to the internet. If I turn off mobile data again, my 3G icon reappears.
Before my provider had locked my sim card, everything worked.
Can some one help?
Get a new sim card? How do they accidentally block it?

Solved. My Provider just sent me a SMS telling me that unblocking the internet takes longer than unblocking phone service.
Everything is back to normal now.
Thanks for your reply anyway.
Is there a way to close this thread?

Hi,
I am unable to use 3G on htc desire. I have set the correct APN. The problem is that when I choose "WCDMA" as the network mode, it automatically switches back to "GSM only". The place where I live has no problem with 3G availability. I feel the problem lies more with my handset. Can someone please help ? Is there anything that I can do to get rid of this problem. My phone has lost its warranty since I unlocked it.
Have you tried any other operator sim card? It's a good troubleshooting to do when this kind of problems happen...
Had problems like that before and it was an incorrect APN setup.
Thanks for getting back. I tried with a different sim and a different operator. They were also not successful. APN setting is perfectly right for the current sim. The APN settings were given by the operator.

Are you using any kind of widget to switch APN on / off, 2G/3g ?... I noticed that for example, Widgetsoid can mess with 3g connection so much that sometimes you need to remove it and reboot the phone so you can get things working again.
Try using another SIM card too. It may give you a clue on what's going on: wrong settings / card with no data activated / etc ...
I am not using any widget to turn on/off the 3g. EDGE services work on my mobile while 3G is not working. If I use the sim card on to a different mobile, 3G works fine without any problem. Tried using another sim card with 3G data activated and that also did not work fine for me on HTC Desire.
Hi I just got this phone as a replacement for my Sony Ericsson X10a.
I have AT&T and when I try and use my data I can't connect I can only use Wifi I see "4g" by my signal up top but it doesn't work.
When I look at my access point names I see 4 of them.
AT&T US AAB
AT&T US HSDPA
AT&T US Tether
AT&T US MMS
To the left of them is a lock icon and they are locked.
3 of them are able to be toggled but none work.
So do i need to reenter the APN's? If so does someone have the inputs?
Also should I fix this is there a good data switch widget I can use for this phone?
Try this:
Go to Settings - > Battery and Data Manager - > Data Delivery
Make sure Data Enabled is checked.
I've had it mysteriously uncheck for me before on this phone.
^ +1 to that.
Is the 4G symbol gray or blue in color?

Yes it's enabled.
It's is gray meaning no connection.
Go to About Phone - > Phone Status
What does it say under Signal Strength, Mobile Network Type, and Mobile Network state?
Problem solved was not an issues on my end AT&T did not register my replacement in the system so they thought I was still using an X10a. The Atrix 2 is now in the system and my phones data works!
Good to hear!
Atat had to do the something basically they didn't recognize it then I called and enrolled me in there 4g data plan

Exactly the same thing I had happen. X10 finally flashed to death. They replaced it with ATRIX 2 but didn't change me over.

Not true... The blue indicates a connection to Google servers not to the internet, therefore you could still be connected to the internet if it's gray.
I am from India, using HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE in GSM/UMTS Mode. I tried this fake id method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1986346, but after I did nothing seems to change, so i did it like maybe three times. In the third time the phone stays in a mode something like the temproot mode where the screen becomes unresponsive and I only have the status bar on top, I can go to settings, but wasn't able to connect to my phone network carrier, only able to connect to WiFi. So, when that happens I tried flashing a stock rom 2.17.605.2 RUU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770978 using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2214653 method, I am able to flash the phone, but the problem with the network connecting is not fixed, so now I am unable to use my phone for call, text, any services except Wifi connection. And when I search for any available network I could see the list, but when I click my carrier it said the SIM card is unable to register to the network. So I remove my SIM and insert in another phone, it seems my SIM card has failed to register, so I thought it may be my SIM so I took another SIM card and insert it in my phone, still I cannot connect to the network. Is there a way to solve this? What can be the cause of this?
I have been using my Nexus 5 for a while and I noticed something very strange. On my status bar it will show a cellular connection but I will not actually have connection. Then when I go to quick settings it will show emergency calls only only with no connection. I then need to go to airplane mode on and off to reconnect. Weird.
Any solutions?
Anyone else?

Hey there I have the same issue as well!! By any chance are you using a nano Sim card with a micro Sim card adapter as well? I am worry it is the contact between the pins??
Airplane mode
Just try to look at one of: lock screen, notification bar (after connected with WiFi), settings - APN Name, ##4636# mobile phone status.
If you can find correct mobile service provider name, it seems that your SIM card is recognized correctly. If not, try another sim card.
After it, try ##4636# select GSM Only or CDMA only, to see if it can connects. And some info shows if you are using sprint card, you should connect sprint service to provide your MEID. Search if you using sprint.
Hi guys.
I have been using the Honor-8 for over 6 months now. All of a sudden i am facing this really unexplained issue with my network.
I am able to make calls, send sms, use data 4G etc. but not able to receive incoming calls or sms. Sometimes calls get through but most of the time it says my number is not reachable or out of service.
I have shown my phone to my service provider. They did a network reset from their system for my number and on my phone too. It did not work. Then i did a factory reset on my phone and still it did not work. Later i even replaced my sim with a new one on the same number. This too did not help.
When i put in my sim onto another phone it works perfectly. Also when i use a different sim onto my phone then i dont face any such issue.
Can someone help me solve this issue please.
