Whenever I try to enable mobile hotspot I get a popup for carrier account checking. Short of root solutions, what can be done to remove this check? I've tried setting DUN=0, APN settings, and VPN but I still get the carrier block

Suddenly, I cannot to access functions that require connection to a network.
For example, Bing will not update categories or collections.
Windows update will not connect to the network.
It suggested I check my time and date? ...which are correct.
I can access internet, send and receive email and sms, check and update weather.
Just many things that require network connections do not work.
I'm not sure when this started. I don't remember changing any network settings.
I use T-Mobile in USA
Any ideas what i am missing?

Are you using a proxy?
Are you on the t-zones package? Maybe they are now blocking https (or SSL)?
DJG,
Good questions. When I first got my TP and put sim in, it did automatic setup to T-Mobile settings. I am on unlimited data plan. When checking settings recently, I noticed the APN was set to the WAP.voicestream.com, instead of internet2.voicestream.com. I changed that. I also noticed that This network uses a proxy server was checked, with no proxy name in the box. I tried checking then unchecking this and using it. No difference. Then I tried checking it and adding getmorespeed.voicestream.com. It seems like web browsing is a bit faster (maybe), but this didn't fix the other network access problems.
Could this be a T-Mobile problem, or a problem with my account at T-Mobile?
Do they need to reset anything?
I set up my Gizmo5 account for SIP calling yesterday on the wireless network provided by my Verizon Fivespot, and it worked fine. Now I'm on my home network (Verizon DSL), and when I try to use Gizmo5 on my Nexus S, I get the error "Account registration failed: (transaction terminated); will try later." Why does this happen on only my home network? Is there anything I can do to get Gizmo5 to work at home?
Device: Nexus S
OS: Gingerbread 2.3.1
Carrier: None (Verizon Fivespot)
It may be network related at your house. Possibly a router/firewall not allowing the traffic in/out. I doubt it but I suppose the provider could be blocking that type of traffic as well.
What can I do to fix it though? I already checked my router settings and the firewall isn't blocking anything.

It isn't only the outgoing ports that need to be open (they definitely do), but the firewall has to support NAT *correctly*. SIP requires intelligence from a firewall, opening/keeping-track of outgoing/incoming UDP ports, etc. If your router supports it, try a third-party firmware like Tomato.
I had this same problem with new ubee modem/router. It is indeed NAT, and the ubee has no option to disable it.
I ended up putting my old router on the ubee DMZ and now gizmo and sipgate work.
Anyone have suggestions on making a ubee work with voip?

I have a US Cellular G920R4, unlocked.
USC has co-opted the data connection. For example, I can add an APN for Verizon and select it, but it doesn't work.
If you set the APN setting to default and remove all APNs, it dispalys a message that states that "APN settings are disabled for the current user profile."
Data is 3G by default.
Also, they've locked the browser such that you can not remove or even change the default home page, which is the USC portal.
How to I eliminate their default setup and restore the APN settings?
I was having a problem with this also and I was able to add a working APN by disabling WiFi first. You'll still see the APN settings disabled error until you add the new APN. You'll then be able to select the radio button next to the APN you added after it has been saved. It worked for me just now so I hope that helps you.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am glad the solution worked for you and, hipefully it will help others. The WiFi settings on my device were disabled. I can add an APN and select it as default, but it's ignored - even after I delete all APNs by returning to default settings and starting over.

UPDATE: FOUND SOLUTION IN 3RD POST BELOW!
So im rooted on my Pixel 7 Pro.
Im experiencing daily occurances where my phone goes into NO SERVICE.
Toggling data on or off doesnt work.
Only restarting the phone works.
Which brings me to this..
I have Visible wireless which is Verizon based.
Problem is I cant edit APN what-so-ever.
Its greyed out. So fine tuning my APN is off the table.
However I do have root and I do have access to my build.prop file (even though FX explorer wont let me mount to write which is another problem).
Does anyone know how to work around this APN block or point me in another forums fix?
Im on Factory Unlocked Pixel 7 Pro Android 13.

Try this app, and enable apn editing. If it lets you after that you'll be able to. But it doesn't work on Verizon, you can add an apn but only edit the name of it.

Thank you TotallyAnxious but I got a working solution that doesnt involve adding modules to Magisk and appears to not require root. I do have Magisk and LSPosed running but this is working on my Visible (Verizon) service.
Ok so Im on a factory unlocked Google Pixel 7 Pro Android 13 (rooted but that doesnt matter and neither does being factory unlocked) with Visible Wireless (Verizon MVNO) and my APN is greyed out. Apparently Visibles carrier update I have for 2023 didnt patch adding apn, they just hid it.
I just downloaded "MIUI Hidden Settings Activity" app in play store by "NetVor - Android Solutions" and opened the "Access Point" shortcut which opens up the hidden by verizon option to add APN and save it! I have my 2nd APN selected right now in settings.
I basically copied everything my carrier APN has except I didnt select "NR" under bearer type which is the 5G connection. It wont let you add "dun" for APN type for tethering/hotspot so I added it in all CAPS as "DUN" and it worked! Tested hotspot and it works great.
Now my phone wont lose service trying to connect to this stupid 5G causing NO SERVICE on my sim.
For many this is how you add APN for troubleshooting.
Important to know: Using this other app called "Network Type Switcher" by "Cracky" in Play Store allows Testing menu which is *#*#4636#*#* on your dialer to "select prefered network type" to remove "NR" (5G) as folks previously have been doing to stick to LTE 4G, however, if your APN bearer allows 5G (NR) then it will try scanning for NR band and when it finds it and cant connect (because of your prefered network type on LTE 4G) it will cause a mismatch and youll lose service showing "NO SERVICE". The only way to fix it is rebooting.
Make sure your Select Prefered Network Type reflects whats in your APN bearer.
In fact as long as you just remove NR (5G) from apn bearer then it wont even scan for it even if your "select prefered network type" allows NR (5G). So no need to change it. Just remove it from your APN bearer and itll stay on 4G LTE.
Removing NR (5G) from apn bearer was my ultimate goal and adding a new apn but If your goal is to just add tethering/hotspot with "DUN" (such as "APN type: default,spul,DUN") then thats all you need to do.
No need to change "select network prefered type".
If you mess up adding a APN and want it deleted just go to settings, network, sims, apn, select the 3 dot menu, reset to default and itll go back to what your carrier set.
I dont think you need root to add APN with this app above. It never prompted for root access and didnt require it. No need to modify build.prop since they just hid the add apn setting.

It's an app, not a module. It actually can work without root as described in the readme.

oh ok i misunderstood. Well then if this ends up failing down the road ill give the method a shot you mentioned.
Thank you!
I was able to root my Moto G Stylus 5G. i try to edit build.prop no success. so, i unable to find good way to by pass att or cricket tethering check beside using sharenet or pdanet+. any roms out there allow me to use free tethering?
Your trying to just bypass the provisioning check so you can enable tethering when it's not available on your account/byod? Or are you trying to have your traffic not count as tethered to bypass account limits? Is this an ATT/Cricket phone, or one with an unlocked bootloader/Magisk?
