Hi guys, I have problem with my network connection also my 3g does not work anymore, I was playing with my phone with some secret codes like a ##72786# on my epic 4g touch sprint phone flashed to metro pcs and now I have no 3G service. In the setting menu under network status say Sprint. How can I get my 3g back?. The mobile net. 3G is on and the wifi is off. I need to change the network to metro pcs in the status setting and how can do that? Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English.
Running ICS OS.
Can you re register your network by scanning network operators? If not you will need to Google APN settings for your network.

I was wondering how you fixed the problem, having a similar one myself!
Is the reason I have no cellular data because this phone does not support cellular data in 3g only voice? The HTC FAQs seem to be suggesting this?

I discovered that although the country and carrier come automatically from the sim it is necessary to tap the confirmation in network setup:
Okay so I bought this US Cellular S3 from eBay and the phone had network signal when I first got it. Then I thought playing with the Hidden Menu and try to make it work with GSM but all I got is problem. I lost the network signal on my R530U... I have tried flashing couple of stock ROMs but no luck so far. I can see my phone number in Settings > About menu but the network says disconnected.
Please help!

It's hard to help when there aren't many people here with that carrier. It would be much better to go here http://teamuscellular.com/Forum/forum/284-galaxy-s-iii-development/

I made the mistake of messing around with the Hidden Menu on my old Samsung Fascinate and it lost data signal. Basically, you may have cleared out some technical string of code related to network authentication ...some ID or something (i don't know) Once its cleared out...no way to reprogram it...far as I was told...had to get it replaced....every phone is different.

It makes no sense that only airtel wouldn't work with your phone but other networks will..........
Did you maybe try to change the sim or goto the service center because as your saying its not the same problem
with other networks only with airtel.......???

maybe some problem with the base band settings.....but it can't be bcoz other sims are working fine
can't seem to really understand why??
does airtel show up on the network list when you go for a manual search ???
Developer settings
Try this
Open dialer> type *#*#4636#*#*
wait 2-5 seconds, special menu opens. In phone settings press menu key & select auto registration. Additionally for band select WCDMA preferred if you want phone to bounce between Edge & 3G in case you have opted for 3G plan. 3G uses more battery and if you necessarily need 3G all the time select WCDMA only or if you need only Edge select GSM only.
This overrides your regular settings as available in normal menu setting irrespective of whatever is selected. As much as I hate it but the truth is Atrix 2 not the AT&T version definitely has poor network radio reception. Also if your area bounces you between Roaming (local) which is not charged as roaming by Airtel and normal home network it gets worse. I have to stick to a certain room or position which I have identified will not drop my call else I got people always complaining & me fed up as well that call reception is sketchy. It isnt so bad in open area but I really wish someone would really work on India specific Radio image improvement tweaks. Then there is this really annoying problem of Data disconnecting when network goes in to roaming (when on home network but due to a certain tower) though data roaming is activated for roaming. Have to re-enable it a zillion times. This is on JB 4.1.2 leak 1. I tried droid FROAM app by a user who developed it for droid but no dice. On custom PA RC-2 this roam issue data disconnect is solved though but then radio remains weak and also status bar shows no signal bar but when quick settings tiles are pulled down the network tile shows the true reception being received. Another issue in PA is though that in normal menu only 3G option I cannot find and I can enable it only through the developer secret menu

Its not a problem with your cell phone from what i can see bcoz all the SIM's and carriers in India use the same band settings so its something
to do with your airtel specific settings that are not working.........Have you tried to goto the airtel shop....show them??
And btw have you tried changing the band settings from the special menu
*#*#4636#*#* dial this and see goto phone info change preferred network to gsm.

Hi guys, this is my first post so please be easy on me. I have an unlocked Sprint Note5 that I use on Tmobile network right now. I added the 'fast. t-mobile.com' APN and have mobile network working. BUT ONLY 3G!! The fastest I've gotten so far is about 10 Mbps or so, and usually it's just 2-3 Mbps.
My question: is there a way for me to get LTE on this device with Tmobile? Or it's hardware/software impossible? For the simple reason of Samsung Pay, I'd rather not root my phone. The Samsung Pay has given A LOT promotions so far and I prefer to keep it.

I was in this same predicament. You have to choose LTE.
What worked for me was choosing LTE/CDMA mode from Network Mode and then when setting up the APN, there should be a section at the bottom that says 'Bearer'. Click that and choose LTE. After that LTE started working for me. You should also be able to switch to Automatic Network Mode after this.
so is the phone already unlock
OMG, it worked like magic!! Who would know to choose LTE/CDMA knowing that Tmobile uses GSM. Many many thanks!! All of sudden I'm getting ~50 Mbps v.s. the 2 Mbps 3G speed. This is NICE!

I bought the phone at full price at Best Buy and it took me a while fighting with Sprint to get it unlocked (I was with Sprint at the time even). According to their unlock policy posted online, the phone should be automatically unlocked already if bought at full price. They honored that but it just took forever and so many departments to get it done eventually. You'd have to be tenacious about it. I plan to do a factory reset with tmobile sim in to get rid of all the Sprint bloatware.

Hi everybody, also my first message here.
I got the same problem, but a little worse. I bought a SM N920P unlocked by mistake (from ebay) as I didn`t know that Sprint was CDMA. I live in Brazil and there`s only GSM carriers. It works here for voice and data but can only get 3G (up to 8mbps) while my other phone (moto e 4G) goes up to 30 mbps. And if I choose LTE/CDMA it goes offline .
And worse, it always trying to activate and receiving the message 'activation not completed'.
I wonder if I root it could it be turned from N920P into N920i or any other.... is it possible?

Have you figured this out yet? For me, you had to choose LTE from the "Bearer" setting in the APN settings. Not only Network Mode.

Hey I'm on Verizon note 5, and I haven't found a fix yet. However, u can follow my fix here.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3280342
last post in the thread. I've found a way to enable LTE, until a phone call is made, then u need to switch back to cdma/LTE until LTE pops up, then switch it back to global. It's a solution, but kind of sucks.

fix for all your issues.
This is the fix that worked for me but, you need to have your MSL code for the phone...everything works for me LTE MMS everything.
youtube{dot}com/watch?v=5tBeKAGkc1Y
As far as to remove hands free activation..your phone needs to be rooted and follow this guide since this method worked for me.
youtube{dot}com/watch?v=-SEVcT9FJvw
You need to put it back to auto after you get lte to work. This allows it to switch between the two when you are making calls or online. If you keep it in lte/cdma, your gsm carrier will not wotk.
This worked for perfectly for me! Thanks foruonlyfrom007 for the advice to set it to automatic. Now i have LTE and can make calls with no issues! And by the way all you have to do is download package disabler from playstore to stop the activation, no root necessary

Yes I was able to get mms working perfectly simply by adding port 80 as the mms port.
My only problem now is that mms only works when I am not connected to wifi. If I receive any mms I have to disconnect from wifi and then tap it to receive it.
If anyone knows how to make mms work with wifi too, please comment and add @textbook.
