Hi Everyone,
I am using an HTC Sensation, with Revelation ROM (v 1.0.2). Today I decided to switch from Vodafone (Australia) to ALDI Mobile (Pre-paid SIM). I have successfully registered the SIM with ALDI Mobile, and I have transferred my existing phone number. I can also receive calls to my number as normal, however I am unable to access the internet.
I do not appear to be able to change my SIM Card Settings! When I pull down the curtain, and tap on "SIM Card Inserted - Tap to complete setup." the screen "flashes black" and then returns to the "Home Screen". The video below demonstrates the behaviour of my phone when I attempt to change my SIM Card Settings (this behaviour also occurs when I try to access my phone Settings using all available menu options).
Video of attempt to change SIM Card Settings
Furthermore when I tap and hold the Home button, in order to access recent Apps, I am able to select the "Select your Carrier" App, however tapping on it simply results in the black screen (momentarily), followed by the "Home Screen" (as shown in the video link). Here is a screen capture of the "Recent Apps", and it shows Telstra as the mobile phone carrier (which is correct, because ALDI Pre-paid uses the Telstra network).

I have used both a Vodafone & a Telstra SIM successfully in my phone before, however I believe at the time I was using the Elegancia ROM.
If anybody has any suggestions on how to change this setting, perhaps through a config file, they will be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,

Hi pal
So I watched your video and its definitely the app force closing. You could get a logcat to see what the issue is with the app its self, but first I would see if you have access to settings/mobile data/access point names/ and see what apns are listed. If you ask at aldi, or look online you should be able to get the mms/data apn for your network and add it manually. Once that is added your internet and mms should work

[SOLUTION] Factory reset provided the ability to select the appropriate provider
Hello Heavy Metal Man (and all fans of the METAL genre, i.e.: ME! Thumbs up to Metallica & Killswitch Engage!),
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my post. I performed a factory reset / wipe of my phone and when the phone rebooted I was able to enter Telstra as the Service Provider, from this point I was able to access the internet.
However due to the reset I was left with only the standard apps, as a result I decided to start again from "scratch". This took the form of installing ViperS, which now supports Sense 5 (outstanding, in my opinion - particularly given that the HTC Sensation is over 2 years old now, and it is still capable of running the newest variants of both Android and Sense!!!).
I now have a JB, Sense 5 phone, that performs very well. Thank you XDA, and all of your interlinked developers.
Kind Regards,
Davo

Hi all.
I am missing the Android native VOIP/SIP call settings on my U11. By googling I found some very limited information about this, it seems that some users complained about these settings not being available on the dual SIM version of the M8.
First question: does anybody know if it really depends on the phone being dual SIM? Can any single-SIM user confirm that they have the settings? They should be in Settings >> Call.
Second question: does anybody know any solution? I know that there are many third party SIP clients, but I would be happier if I could have it in the native dialer.
Thanks!
I am not completely sure but maybe someone can do that.
I found a module in Xposed that can add sip setting in HTC m7 dual SIM.
you can access hidden internet call setting in dual SIM with QuickShortcut Maker.
in activity choose com.android.phone and then choose calling account.
in my phone when I want add sip account , unfortunately com.android.phone has stoped.
Please if you can test it.

Hi, thank you very much for the excellent tip! Unfortunately I also get a force close when clicking on "Internet calling (SIP) accounts", probably something is really missing and not just hidden.
It would be cool if that Xposed module worked, where did you find it?
Any other ideas?
EDIT: I googled and found this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766781
I believe the relevant part in the source code is the one starting at line 397 in this file: https://github.com/Falseclock/HtcOneTweaker/blob/master/src/kz/virtex/htc/tweaker/mods/Phone.java
I have no idea whether the same code would work today, but my feeling is that little can be done (apart from switching to custom ROMs supporting it, maybe).
this is Xposed module can add sip setting in HTC m7 dual sim phone.

Yes, I have also found it and added in an edit to my previous post, but thank you anyway.

Hi
I install ViperU 1.5.0 rom and in aroma installer choose default and everything works great. especially internet call setting.
if you not use 2nd sim you can enjoy native android SIP.
you must choose default and don't choose dual sim.
Ok, that's also good news, thanks! So it doesn't need any low level "conversion" to single-sim, normal custom ROMs can do it too. I would still expect the feature to work even in the dual SIM model, but it's good to know that this is possible.
Today i went on business trip and while on plane i put airplane mode on. Upon landing i couldn't connect to network anymore, it gives me 2 errors depending if i manually select network or try automatically, those 2 are Unable to connect. Try later and Error while searching for network.
I reset network settings, restarted phone, reset it, tried different sim in my phone and it didnt work either, mine did in other phone. I dont known what to do besides wait to go home and give it to service since its under wattany... any ideas please?

You didn't say but have you tried a reboot?
At least20 times, wiped cache too
Came home and network works... I'm still taking it to service but don't know how they'll or I can test it. Other sim produced same error abroad so it's not that...
Edit:
Bit of an update:
I called my warranty place they said phone is from Italy which now made sense but that it should work. I ran imei check and it says blacklisted. I bought it new unsealed with warranty from official place so now I'm gonna need a new phone, right?
It is the bug of Samsung. I am having the same problem all the time on both S8+ and S7Edge. Iphone 6 is fine. Typical answer form Samsung is 'network or sim' related. O2 is saying problem with your phone. When I choose network manually everything is working. As a fix you can turn 4g off when roaming
Hi all, I first have this error whenever I update or install new app. It'll show up the notification this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then the sim lost its signal and lock my phone automatically. I'm not sure how to fix this, so I made a factory reset, however, the problem still persist.
Worst (at least to me), the lte does not working at all. I tried "search providers" both manually and automatically, restarted, re-plug the sim out but still not working.
I bought this phone international version; T-mobile sim.
Can anyone please help? Just bought this phone for 2 weeks and feel bad if this can't be solved.
Thank you.
Is your apn correct?

I cannot see what error you are getting but I will bet it has to do with Visual Voicemail.
Here is what to do for this error:
Go to settings > Apps & Notifications > App info > Phone > select "Force Stop > then select Storage > then Clear Cache > then Clear Data. Then get out of settings and open phone app > top right corner select three dots > settings > calls > Voicemail > there is the Visual Voicemail toggle....turn it off > then reboot. I was able to do a Play Store update and the error message is gone. Follow my steps to make it work for you.
As for LTE...how do you know you are not getting LTE? Remember that on this phone, international version, on T-Mobile that it will ONLY say 4G. This is correct. I have the same phone on T-Mobile. Also, when making a phone call it will drop to 3G for data while in the call...normal.
Am I the only one with this issue? I have just updated my unlocked LM-V500N Korean model to Android 10 and all of a sudden mobile data does not work with my BT Mobile or Three SIMs (United Kingodm).
I have tried everything: reset roaming settings, network settings, and just now I have done a complete factory reset, and it still refuses to connect to 3G/4G.
I had a look at APN settings, and it appears to be empty. It will not accept the settings sent by my carrier (BT Mobile) and trying to add new APN does nothing (does not show up in the list after adding).
Everything was working completely fine on Android 9.
mine works fine.

Can you show where you tried to add a new apn? Also have you tried to dial ##3282# apn settings 3 dots reset to default
Yep, I tried resetting APN's and I also reset the whole phone to factory and still no dice
I set the APN settings as described by my ISP:
bt.com/help/mobile/getting-set-up/how-to-change-apn-settings-on-an-android-mobile-phone
As you can see it just refuses to accept the settings:

Dialing that number operator responds: "I'm sorry, this system's busy. Please try again later."
Is there a way to downgrade to Android 9?
Did you sort it? I'm having the same issues ?

Nope, I've tried 5 different UK SIMs (BT, EE, Three, O2, Vodaphone) none are working.
I've even contacted LG Korea support. 1 month later, no reply.
In the end, I've resorted to using my old phone as a MiFi, so having to carry 2 phones with me ?.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one, but it's so strange that there's almost no one else with this issue.
Got the same issue on LG wing....anyone made any progress ?

My model in LM-F100N
Unlocked variant from Samsung. I had a Software Update setting section. Soon after putting my Verizon SIM in the device the setting isn't there anymore.
Not sure how to fix or get the setting back. I can't check for new updates either
I have an unlocked variant (SM-F711U1) running a Verizon SIM and software updates option is right in the main settings menu

If you can't find it there, try going to Settings; About Phone; then on the bottom you should see "looking for something else?" And software update under it. Check the pic I've attached
This is all I have
Sorry for the late reply, but to me it almost seems like your phone didn't quite set itself to Verizon's configuration when you put your Verizon SIM card in. It's almost like it has no configuration for updating software PERIOD. This is very strange as even the unlocked version, while brand new, with no SIM ever put in should still show some form of a software update option when connected to internet.
The two suggestions I have are 1)
Use Google dialer set to default and dial code *#*#3747#*#* that will take you to a menu with three options and you want to tap on the "phone information" option and there will be a massive amount of information about your phones network configuration in there including stating that it is actively running on the Verizon network and successfully has the carrier provisioning info. (Disclaimer: I suggest not getting curious and manually changing settings in there when you don't know what you're doing because you can disable network bands and really end up having to factory reset your whole phone if you don't fully comprehend what you're changing) I'm just suggesting that you look visually to make sure of what I said above is what you see.
2nd)
If nothing else, pop your sim card out and go to settings, general management, reset and then tap the reset network info option and let your phone reset it's whole network configuration. If it doesn't reboot itself after then manually power the phone down, while powered down reinsert your Verizon SIM card and then power back up and give it a few minutes to get itself reconnected to Verizon's Network and after about 10 minutes I would reboot the phone again and see if anything has changed.
Spoiler: Also check this in about, status information, SIM status
You should see what you see in my picture when you click the spoiler link.
