Hi,
Not sure if anyone has purchased this phone and unlocked. I've sim unlocked it, but can only get data when I use a T-Mobile nano sim. APN settings show up automatically for T-Mobile. Additionally, data shows connected at 4G but shows as offline when using browser or any data apps.
Any help is appreciated.

I unlocked my Sprint Touch Pro 2 and I am using an AT&T SIM card here in the United States successfully.
The first few times I used GSM mode, a menu would pop up and ask me which network settings I wanted to use (AT&T or T-Mobile).
Now, that menu is no longer popping up. So, I am unable to select the settings for AT&T. Data is now not working on GSM (the phone tries to dial #777 as if it is connected to Sprint).
How can I get that dialog box to pop back up and prompt me to pick the carrier settings? I'm assuming that is what will fix it.
Thanks for the help.
well, I got it working by manually defining the following parameters in a new gprs network connection:
Access Point Name wap.cingular
Username [email protected]
Password CINGULAR1
it works, but then when I go back to CDMA on Sprint, it tries to use this connection.
Is there an autoconfig program that I don't know about? It popped up on my screen when I first started switching between CDMA and GSM, but it hasn't come up again.....
How do I enable "auto-switching?" More importantly, why won't it just get this info from the AT&T SIM card? Why do I have to enter it for it to work now, when I didn't have to a few days ago?
Do you mind share the information how you unlocked your sprint pro2 (CDMA I assume)? I have same phone and want to use it in GSM oversea. Sprint customer Service told me it is not a global phone. can't unlock.
thanks in advance!
Hi, I have got an unlocked htc desire, which worked normally in the uk with a vodafone sim. I have put in a french sim (with 500Mb data per month on contract) and can use the phone but not get mobile data. I have set the phone to data while roaming, but with no access to data.
Can anyone help with a solution to get the phone to receive data I desire?

You will need to input the correct Access Point Name (APN) for the French carrier you are using. You can google to get 'XXX APN settings', then enter the APN under 'Access Point Names' in Settings > Wireless and Networking.
Good luck!
Hi
I am currently in the US for holiday. Bought two prepaid att go phone cards already in Germany and activated them. The Data connection in my wifes SAMSUNG SIII mini (stock) works as it should.
In my HTC ONE SV I only get EDGE working. No matter which APN settings I use as soon as I switch on something else as GSM only in Network data plan.it disconnects completely from Mobile and states "Service not available"
My SV is unlocked and rooted and running with the Russian ROM
Any quick suggestion what can help,
Edit: I went to a AT&T shop here. They were very helpful but couldn't get it working. Tried more things and at one point all APN settings were gone. After that I tried for the first time the "Reset to default" and it loaded the ATT Phone settings.
After a restart everything works. I have here with H sign in taskbar a download of 5Mbps and upload of 1Mbps.
I attach the screenshots of the settings
I just bought a used Verizon LG G5 (VS987), however my carrier is AT&T. After putting in the Sim card, calling and texting works but when I go to turn on mobile data in the settings, I get a popup that says "Add Mobile Service Please contact Customer Service at (800) 922-0204 for assistance."
I have called both that customer service number for Verizon ^ and also AT&T. I made sure that my IMEI was updated on our AT&T plan, and I have the right APN settings put in. When I called Verizon, the guy didn't really have much to say except that the device is unlocked but full access to features can't be guaranteed, and I am aware that Verizon and AT&T use different wireless bands, which he explained, but I should be able to at least have some kind of data. We both agreed that this is just some piece of Verizon software keeping me from using data, and he suggested rooting the phone to get a workaround.
One suggestion that I saw in some forums and tried was that resetting the network settings in Backup and Reset does turn mobile data on by default, however I get the same Verizon popup as soon as I open any browser, and other apps just say there is no connection, although when I do this I can see that I am getting either HSPA or 4G data, it just seems like it's being blocked by this Verizon stuff. Messing around with other setttings such as Data roaming and System select didn't change anything.
Does anyone have any experience using a Verizon G5 on AT&T? I saw a video of someone demoing T-Mobile 4G data on the Verizon model, and another user on XDA said that he put in his T-Mobile sim and it worked perfectly. My best guess on where to go from here is to unlock and root, and see if I can install a custom rom to get around this. Does anyone know if there is a stock LG rom without all of the Verizon bloatware installed, maybe a stock rom for the unlocked model of the G5? Any suggestions on how to get this to work are appreciated, and I think this is posted in the right place, I'm an active reader on XDA but this is one of my first posts
Thanks to anyone that reads all of this!
Update: I reset the phone to factory settings and set it up with the sim card from AT&T in it. Since then I can turn on mobile data, and the notification bar shows I have data (mostly HSPA), however I have no connection when I try to load a webpage. Tomorrow morning i'll stop by the AT&T store and see if there's anything they can do.

Did you add the correct APNs for AT&T in the phone when you put in your sim? you need it for internet and MMS
Did you which it to Gobal or other option that is not LTE/CDMA?
Same problem here

Was your problem solved? I'm having the same problem with another Verizon LG Device. If it was solved, what did you do?
Hi.
I have HTC U11, Dual Sim, the International version that I bought from China.
After that, I have changed the CID for it on the Taiwan version.
Currently, it is:
HTC_U-3u
Android 9
Software number 3.22.709.2
Rooted, not custom rom.
I have been used it with several MVNOs (Mint, Hello mobile) that are working on T-Mobile network for the last 1.5 years. Currently, I use Hello mobile.
All worked fine (4g, voice, text, data) until last week.
From the last week, Mobile data is not working anymore. It always shows as "Disabled" when I try to enable it, and no icon in the status bar. Meanwhile, voice and text are working fine.
I didn't do any system updates or new soft installation on my phone.
I tried to reset network data, reboot, checked with support (no issues with my number), checked APN with t-mobile recommended, changed mode on 3g, 2g, and without success, mobile data is not working.
I tried to put my sim card in another phone that I bought here in the US and the mobile data is working fine there, I see the LTE icon, and so on.
Also, I checked my phone with a sim card from ATT, and the same issue, voice, and text are ok and no mobile data.
The Signal Spy app shows me that the phone connected to Band 4 (1700). I checked T-Mobile and ATT websites and see that this Band in the list of supported 4g bands.
Also, I checked the compatibility by IMEI on websites and it showed me that only WiFI-Calling and VolTa will not work on my phone, but common 4g data is supported.
So seems all should be work fine but it is not. I found some posts on Reddit that T-Mobile wanted to change some Bands from 4g to 5g, but I don't know if it is the root of my issue.
Does anyone have this issue with this phone in the US on T-Mobile?
I don't know what it was but today Mobile Data started to work, the whole past week I had no mobile data connection.
