Unable to turn off data after upgraded TL10 to 5.1.1
Dear all,
I need an urgent help from all experts.
I just upgraded my TL10, and after upgraded the both sim card always show 3g and 2g sign on both sim card. even though i disable my data from phone, they are still showing data sign on both sims. I already turned off the data, but i was at oversea yesterday but i keep receiving a warning SMS from telco saying data on roaming will incur high cost. which i forced to disable the simcard instead of the data.
hope anyone has solved this issue please let me know. thanks
That was my issue too when I first upgraded to LP.
Usually, when you turn on mobile data, you will see 3g, 4g, etc. on your status bar. Anyway, what I did was I went to Settings->More(Wireless and networks)->Mobile Network
Data enabled OFF
Mobile data always on OFF
Data roaming:
Data roaming OFF
Receive MMS messages while roaming OFF
You will still see the 3g/4g sign but you won't be using any mobile data unless you turn it on.

I have a friend who has this phone. The problem is I inputted the data setting for their service provider and it worked for a while, now though it doesn't work. Enabling or disabling the data settings doesn't work and on checking the Testing Menu the phone has not GPRS service and the Roaming shows Roaming also it shows that it has 3g. The 3g symbol shows up in the notification area yet it wont connect however Wifi works and Calling and Sms work as well.
I would factory reset the phone but my friend doesn't want to do that. Is there anyway to fix this.
Hi Guys,
I am here with a..I hope possible to solve situation.
I have switched to our local carrier, which provides only 2G and 4G connection, but... I have 1GB of data for 4G, but my OPO is sometimes switching to EDGE, which makes me fury, because I am paying for anything transferred through 2G (separately as it is not in the data package I have), but all calls are on 2G, which makes restricting the connection to "LTE-only" impossible, becuase it would result in no access to the calls/text messages.
I have found this article
http://editorsean.com/articles/how-to-force-three-to-use-3g-and-4g-only/
which is really great, but with those options I am forced to use GSM/LTE and such..
Is there any chance of letting my calls and text messages just using 2G network as usuall, but forcing my internet access using just LTE ? There is of course an option for disabling "national roaming" (I hope, it is called the same in english), I have it disabled, but it is still connecting to the 2G and draining data from it...
Is there a chance it is a problem from my side ? I did not factory reseted the phone since buying, doing just OTA upgrades and such, so I was thinking, if the system is not kind of bloated...I had some weird things happening with it too in the past - recently I have seen that in the battery saving mode I could see some like various screen brightness jumps while playing a game for example.
Just today my SIM data service has stopped working on android device, I tried everything I found on the web but nothing worked, turning on/off of data doesn't show the data connection (H+ sign), but GSM is okay, i can receive texts and calls, my settings for data are all correct 100% sure, APN, roaming set, data set to sim, but still there is no data connection showing..
I know it's possible that the network blocked my sim, because recently my sim got free data connection on any sites (P0 load), including play store, torrents, youtube, etc... Free as in everything.
So pals, is there a way to get my data service work again? Thanks

I am currently in Italy using a Vodafone UK sim card, it's been working perfectly (apart from randomly dropping complete signal periodically) but now it's just completely died, as in it won't find a signal at all to connect to any network let alone data roaming. I have contacted Vodafone who said there's nothing wrong at their end and the worst thing is it was working perfectly till this evening. So now it sometimes says emergency calls only or just the ring with a line through it as it cannot find any signal at all. I have tried doing manual network operator selection and automatic but still nothing... Any ideas? It's a g9550 128/6gb
Update I now have 3g data but it says "no network connection" and I cannot send receive texts or phone calls, yet I have full data...

Consequences of buying a CN/HK variant....
They usually have network connectivity issues, not surprising. Try removing the SIM card, turning the phone off, wiping cache in recovery, insert the SIM card, and then reboot. Then manually go and search for a network in settings and force it to connect to Vodafone Italy, should work.
It's working now again, I didn't do anything lol it just started working on its own accord! I'm now in Switzerland and all is good. My life is empty without my phone
It always happens to me when abroad. I am on O2. I have to select network manually and pickup different to the one which auto connect shows emergency calls only. Looks like some cells allowing me to connect but won't pass through calls
Do you also have a usa/china variant?
No, o2 UK from Samsung
I have Mediapad X2 701 B003
The data roaming doesn't work. If I use data locally - everything works, but if I go abroad - then not. I spoke with my mobile provider - they said that my device is not supported for data roaming. If I use the same SIM on a different device - then data roaming works. This shows the problem is with my X2
If I go to Settings>More>Mobile network:
..I can't get inside that menu, nothing happens when I click on it
..my mobile operator symbol disappears for a second, and I get the following message in the notification area:
"Data roaming
You have lost data connectivity because you left your home network with data roaming turned off"
Is there any way to enable data roaming on this device?
Thank you for your help
