Hi folks,
I bought a Cingular GoPhone cellphone and i want to use the line on my G1. The problem is that the G1 doesn't register the sim card on att's network. The crappy phone works fine though.
When going to "Wireless Controls > Mobile Networks > Network operators > Search networks" i am getting att's network listed, so i guess the phone is able to scan for networks. Since my sim card is an att's, the phone should be able to register the sim card to At&t network, but i'm getting "Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network" error. Same error when trying the "Select Automatically" option.
I've been google'ing but could't find a solution, even though there is a lot of threads going back and forth.
Here is my configuration info:
Phone: T-Mobile G1 ( Dream PVT 32B DREA10000), Unlocked, Rooted.
Sim Card: AT&T (Cingular), 1 week old.
Firmware: CyanogenMod 4.2.8
Build Number: DRC83
Radio: 2.22.18.26I
HBoot: 1.33.2005
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Have you already forgotten that G1 is locked to Tmo?
You need the unlock code for it to be used on other carriers.
Plus G1 will only beable to use 2G on att.
Cyan has a new version out now.
The phone is unlocked. I have been using it with south american carriers without any problems.
I don't need 3g right now. ( gophone line )

Wiped, flashed with ( http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Latest_version#Defanged_DRC83 ), and then flashed newest Cyanogen ( 4.2.11.1 ).
Still no luck.
Getting the same exact error while registering the sim card.
Thanks

Try skipping the sign-in.Turn your phone off then put the sim in.Also change the Apn settings and change provider to att in settings.

I manually added att's apn settings, but after i saved it, it doesn't get listed at all, it dissapears.
Any clue on what can be wrong here?

i have an unlocked g1 with att and i had no network problems with cyanogens roms.
Try checking the "2G only" box in data settings. It might be tring to sign into AT&T's 3G voice network, which IIRC, is not a supported feature on GoPhone accounts.

After creating the att apn, the apn doesn't get listed on the apn list and it's not available. I did save it, but the list appears empty.
This is the att's apn settings i found online:

Do you know what spectrum or frequencies your phone runs at? Sometimes they don't include the international spectrum's (or american)if the phone is imported. Nokia has a few phones that needed a North American version they usually have the NAM title next to there name to show they support the American spectrums.

I don't know. I bought the phone in the US, though. Guess it should work.
I remember playing around with SPL and radio images while trying a custom rom with rosie UI, but it looks that the versions posted in the first message should work just fine.
i had att for while and it worked as soon as i unlocked my phone went to tmo because i needed 3g but still use att sim every now and then with no problems and i think ive used every rom on xda and alldroid

Yeah but he's saying his phone is from South America. I'm sure yours wasn't
The phone is from the US. I bought it on ebay, shipped and used in south america.
I just came up with something that actually match all the sympthoms.
Maybe this is happening because the phone IMEI be banned from att's network.
Is there any way i can find out if the phone is reported as stolen or something like that ?
Hi all,
I'm running out of things to try to get my internet working. Hopefully you can tell me where to look for more info, because right now it could be anything (broken phone?)
Here's what I've got:
- Meizu M9 android phone with (newest) 15318 firmware
- vodafone NL sim card, used with internet with HTC Magic for almost 2 years
- I can call, receive SMS, etc, but there is no internet (2G nor 3G)
- I've set up an APN with the following: live.vodafone.com, vodafone, vodafone
- I've tried setting the proxy to 192.168.251.150:8799
- I've tried both PAP and CHAP
- In the info menu (*#*#4636#*#*) it says GSM connected, GPRS disconnected or connecting. When it says disconnected, the 'GSM Disconnects' thing says 'fail due to Unknown Data Error'. I ran into a piece of code which lists all the errors. This is the default error, when it doesn't know what else it is.
I can't tell if this is a firmware, APN or hardware problem. Has anyone got any ideas?
i think it's apn or firmware. because if it would be hardware problem, then calls and sms wouldn't work either, but i'm not sure. try a hard reset (make sure you backup your data first) or find another apn settings. my carrier also has problems with apn. oh wait. another question. can you receive or send mms?
Hi All,
Justy recieved my unlocked Atrix 4G, My understanding is that these guys are meant to be next G compatible.
Set it all up, all is working fine, bar the next G network, I can make and recieve calls, access the net through WiFi but no net access through the carrier.
Tried everything, any help.
Thanks in advance
did you try and set the APN?
http://ausdroid.net/apns/
im using my atrix in australia too, but im on the virgin/optus network. i can get my internet data to work.
Thanks abe1990.
I whent through all this with my previous Desire, but for the life of me, cant remember where to access the info i need from.
Just rebooted the device, notsure why i didn't try earlier, all seems to be fine now.
Thanks
Yeh was just about to add - I'm using an Atrix on Telstra no worries. Seems you were just missing the APNs
You can use the Telstra configure page to ensure you get all the APN's correct.
http://configure.telstra.com.au/telstra/index.jsp
It will download the config file to your phone - no need to manually edit.
Hey guys,
little more interesting now. I tried to send an sms, and its telling me that you need to enter a valid number. Im guessing it has something to do with country settings of some soret howver not sure?
Thanks
so i have done the updates successfully, yet still the same message, i have notices when i input the number it appears like a US number, i.e 111-111-1111. not sure if this is the issue.
Thanks for that guys. I have done the auto set up through telstra and all seems to be working. The problem now is that when sending sms i must add +61 in front of all numbers otherwise it doesn't recognise and says invalid number. Is there a setting for this, a can't seem to find anything.
Unusual, im not having a problem. Maybe try downloading MoreLocale 2 off the market, it changes all your regional settings to Australia. Add EN AU to the app. It may help..
Hey, how is your data coverage on the go with telstra, I'm on virgin here and its good if your standing under a tower (five_six mb/s) but on a train line or anywhere else it barely manages to update facebook.

I'll have to give more local a go and keep you posted. As for Data coverage with Telstra, I have now been through all the networks and I find it by far the best. Carparks, lifts, city everywhere really, a little pricer but worth it.
Hey guys I just go my Atrix today, I can't seem to get my phone to connect on the Next G network. If I do it always come up with a error everytime I turn my phone on and off, it always ask me to try and select another carrier. Plus I don't get the Telstra Newtork on the notification bar its just blank. However if I hit cancel it will let me stay on the Next G network but when I call or recieve a call for Next G numbers it crashes my phone and forces it to reboot. Just wanted to know if anyone else is having this problem or is it just me.
The only way I have worked around this is using the 3Telstra network, which kinda sucks cause I need the the Next G coverage.
Any one having issues with the mobile hotspot. At first every time i went to use it would have to change the mobile APN auth type to get it to connect.
Now after upgrading to .57 i keep getting the u need to pay at&t to use this msg. Any thoughts
Im on telstra and have had the phone 3 weeks
Got mine last week from Bell Canada, and after setting the APN's, running so sweetly on Optus HSDPA.
Mine doesn't suffer from the random muffled voice issues the AT&T phones are experiencing. The Bell Canada phone doesn't loose any APN or carrier settings on reboot.
Theoretically with the 850Mhz band support it should work on Telstra NextG, but who knows. Sounds like AT&T are severely locking down their phones. Glad I got mine from Bell (and logo free)
Hey buddy. I'm on Telstra as well. Call them on 125880 and follow the prompts until you speak to someone. They will text you an update with all the settings. I literally just did that 5 minutes ago

cheetah2k, how is your phone working on optus?
Downloads don't work for me when im on 3g, only H and 3. (i'm on tpg)
I'm guessing the phone doesn't have support for it...
Where you guys get your unlock phone from? i m interested in getting one for use in SG

No doubt it depends on the area you're in, some areas will support 900Mhz only which the Atrix doesn't have.
On the south side of Brisbane, I've yet to have a situation where it drops out of H+ for data. What APN settings are you using?
dio, i bought my phone unlocked from negrielectronics so they sent me the code.
AusDroid suggested:
TPG Mobile – Internet
Name: TPG Internet
APN: internet

Port: 8070
Username:

MMSC:
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:
MMS Protocol:

MNC: 02
APN Type: default
That didn't work for me so all i did was create one, give it a name and save it. So my APN only has the default settings, i.e MCC: 505, MNC: 02.
I do drop from H quite often in Sydney city, I then have to wait until it finds H again. Maybe there is someway so it doesn't attempt to connect to 3g?
thks... will check out the site. btw is it a at&t branded phone?
Hello!
I was wondering if anyone could please help me with an issue I am having with my HTC Trophy (locked for Verizon)
I am looking to unlock it to use with a Trinidadian SIM card for when I return home, but it is prompting me for an unlock code when I put the phone into GSM mode. It says "This SIM card can only be used on specific networks. Contact your customer service center for the unlock code"
On Global Mode it also says locked/PIN required, on CDMA it does not show a carrier but will prompt me over to Verizon customer support to activate the phone (which I do not want to do)
I called Verizon; they won't give me an unlock code and the Unlock-code eBay the sellers I have contacted said it MUST have a 14 digit code; but I only have 13...
I am attaching a photo of the information of my phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
photo link (no space between http) http ://c1205.hizliresim.com/x/c/5nlrq.jpg
Check the inside of the phone, under the battery to see if there is another digit to your IMEI.. it has 14 digits in your photo.. so I don't know why you'd think there was only 13 .. that's the number you need.
I wonder if anyone knows a good service for doing this on Trophy 7 for Verizon. I know mwang has his security unlocked to use his on T-Mobile., I wonder if he used a service?
Verizon will normally provide you with an unlock code if you have service with them, and you tell them you are traveling internationally.
Ah sorry I meant the eBay unlock code sellers told me I would need a 15 digit, not a 14 digit IMEI to unlock this dual CDMA/GSM device. However I found a seller that was able to do it; r.ebay.com/FYDQfX
and now; SUCCESS img: e1205.hizliresim.com/x/f/5tm57.jpg
Also to clarify; what was causing me grief was that by dialing *#06# gives you the MEID, which starts with 'A' and to my knowledge is not used to unlock a dual CDMA/GSM device.
IF you press *#06# you should be getting 17 digits.
You can also check the Settings sections in mobile, that will also show you the IMEI number, or remove battery from the phone, it should be printed on white sticker.
Thanks
Just used an unlock code from the eBay seller mentioned in the above post; worked perfectly! The only issue I'm having now is that I'm only getting Edge wireless. I set it to use 3g and GSM on my HTC Trophy using a Straight Talk sim, but it just connects to the Edge network instead. The APN I'm using is att.mvno
Any suggestions? I know the Verizon Trophy supports HSPA+ 2100MHz
Did you ever get 3g on your phone Fad?
Yeah, try this. Go to the market, HTC.. then download/install "Connection Setup." Run that app and set it to whatever carrier you are using. That should get everything up and running for you.
If you still aren't getting 3G data speeds, check Straight Talk's coverage map and see if 3G is offered in your area. Straight Talk uses AT&T towers in many areas, and I know in my area... 3G is a no go.
Thank you so much for the response!
I did a lot of reading on the HTC Connection Setup app, and it should help those that are using T-mobile or AT&T, however, it does not have a Straight Talk profile, which is the carrier I'm using; apparently it doesn't work with .mvno APNs very well.
However, they have been bombarded with Straight Talk customers asking for support, and it's only a matter of time before they add one, supposedly.
I've spoken with a few other HTC Trophy users and all of them were also able to get their phones unlocked, but they could only get Edge data as well. Hopefully the connection setup app will help them!
Try contacting Stiaght Talk for the apns. They should be able to provide them to you... Then post them here. ;-)
Well, unfortunately the HTC Connection Setup app does not allow you to manually edit the APN. It only allows you to select a preset one and as I said before, they do not have a Straight Talk profile as of now.
The only editing you can do on a Windows Phone without an app, is just the actual APN, Proxy, Port, Username, and Password. You cannot edit the MMS APN settings sadly enough.
The APN settings for Straight Talk are the following:
APN: att.mvno
MMS APN: att.mvno
MMSC: I'll have to edit when I have permission to post an http link
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33:80
Max Size: 600
Leave the rest of the settings blank, this has worked on other smartphones for full data speeds and MMS compatibility.
I have since factory reset my HTC Trophy and tried connecting to Straight Talk and AT&T with data above Edge, this was unsuccessful; a reset will not fix the radio. The only thing I can think of is that when HTC and Verizon pushed the Mango update on the Trophy, it changed the radio since it is suppose to support AT&T's spectrum. I purchased an HTC Titan on eBay and am now using that as my phone; I'm getting full HSPA+ speeds. The only issue with Straight Talk on Windows Phone is the MMS APN settings, I cannot receive picture or video text messages since it cannot be edited.
Hopefully HTC will add a Straight Talk profile, or allow its customers to change the settings Manually within the App.
Good luck to anyone with an unlocked Trophy, I cannot get above edge data or MMS working on Straight Talk.
Oh, you don't need an app! As long as you have Mango or above rom installed, you can edit/add the apn by going to Settings=>Cellular=>add APN button at bottom of screen.
You cannot edit the MMS APN, only the data APN by doing that. As I said, this will enable you to get full data, but you cannot get picture or video text messages until we can fully edit the MMS APN.
Oh, hrm. I wonder if there is a way in the registry? Let me look at the Verizon packages and see if I can find the registry settings. There must be a way.

Okay, I think I might have found a way to make MMS work on Straight Talk using manual editing. You will need a fully unlocked phone with registry edit to do this.
First, download and install Connections setup. Apply AT&T settings (I'm hoping this will give you the full set of values you need to edit).
Now, open up register editor and navigate to: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ShortMsg\MMS\Profiles\ATT
I'm not sure what values to edit to what. If you find the equivalent AT&T settings vs Straight Talk, you should be able to figure it out.
I'm wondering if we can edit Connection Setup similar to how it was edited for Interop unlock for HTC to add additional carriers to the list. The new version of Connection Setup (1.15) seems like it has selection for carriers then 1.14A (the version that worked with Interop) and 1.14B (the secret rerelease that was released after interop unlock). You'd still need an unlocked phone before hand, but it'd be much better then nothing at all.
If I knew anything about making xaps, we could make a xap to apply the settings once we confirm what works.
As for Verizon radios possibly being the issue, if you have an HSPLed phone, I have a radio thread and anyone can try EVERY radio to find one that works (I'd start at the newest and work your way back).
Trophy supports only 2100MHz UMTS. You will never get above Edge speeds anywhere in North America.
I unlocked my HTC Trophy for use with AT&T. Works fine but if using the phone to call someone, it shows up on their caller ID as "Private Number". Have you managed to get it to show the real number? If so, could you email me how you managed to do it? Many thanks.

SIM unlock code
It appears that ebay link in this post is not valid anymore. Can someone recommend me reliable online service for unlocking my verizon SparkW. I am confused a little, because it seems that according to experiences of other people, unlocking phone this way is not successful every time. Is there another way for SIM unlock (except asking verizon for code...)
So, I will start by giving information that is hopefully relevant.
I moved from Verizon to Straight Talk w/ a Straight Talk SIM card for Verizon towers. My phone is rooted, and bootloader unlocked (15 emmc).
I am currently using a custom ROM CM13 (Official Build Nightlies current ROM is from 4-27-2016)
I started Straight talk about 1 week ago, and ported my number over to ST with a sim card I bought from Amazon for Verizon Towers.
When a person starts ST they give you a free 5 day trial, then you start your monthly payments. Everything was fine during the 5 day trial, I HAD data and it was connecting at 4G/LTE speeds (Mobile Network Icon displayed "Verizon"). Then, when the trial ended and my refill card kicked in, I lost all data connection. Absolutely NO internet. In fact, the mobile network icon in the status bar (pull down menu) displayed "No Service," I then called ST customer service, they were able to get me connected but only at 3G speeds (However the mobile network Icon still displayed "No Service." I have coverage in this area I live in for 4G/LTE as I used it in this area for 2 years when I was with Verizon. The CS rep (who was a supervisor) then tried to get me connected at 4G. Long story short, they could not get me connected, in fact I lost data again. (I should mention that at this time I can still place and recieve calls as well as send and receive text messages.) The CS rep then contacted Verizon and now they are sending me a new SIM card. My question is, What is the difference between the CM13 Unofficial VS Official Build? Could this be affecting my DATA connection? The unofficial builds can be found in the Galaxy S5 Verizon Development Threads. Can't remember where I found the official builds, but is the official Cyanogenmod site. I do have the link, but I don't have enough posts to show. Could I possibly be using the wrong ROM? Or is it something on Straight Talks side? Or have I missed something? Could this problem be a symptom of using the DEV Bootloader unlock method for Samsung 15 emmc? I would appreciate some insight on this. I should be receiving my new SIM hopefully in a few days or by the beginning of next week so I can update more when that comes. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Response is very much appreciated, unfortunately for some reason these APN settings do not work, ("No Service" is displayed with no signal bars under the mobile network icon in the pull down menu from the status bar) I have tried other various APN settings from random forums, and youtube. None have worked. Maybe my SIM card is corrupted possibly? I guess I will have to wait and see when Str8 Talk sends me my new SIM card. Will update/post new info when I know more. Thanks.
funny you should say that, today I don't have data or a signal at all (at work). I'll report back if that changes at home later today. It could be a sim issue or just a straight talk issue.

Interesting, glad to know I'm not the only one in this situation. Thanks. I will be sure to update this post as well when I know more. Thanks.
so the way I finally fixed it was to reload CM13 and use the last APN to edit with my settings and not delete the others. Don't know why it mattered but I'm up and running
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk
Yeah, tried editing the last APN as you suggested, still nothing. However I can connect to the tower (still with "No Service" indication) to receive phone calls and mms. But still no data. My new SIM card arrives in the mail 2 moro. Hopefully that is the issue.
If you're unable to edit the APN settings, I'd think that it was a faulty SIM card. Keep us notified, I'd be glad to help if possible.

Well, I am able to edit my APN settings, just the settings I have tried from XDA and other random forums/youtube/etc. just have not been working. As I have mentioned I am receiving my new SIM from Str8Talk 2moro, so hopefully a faulty SIM is the issue. Thanks for all the responses everyone, and I will keep everyone updated.
This is what worked for me. I am running daily CM13and been very happy. I edited the last APN entry and it saved fine.

Well received my new SIM card. Apparently the old SIM wasn't letting me connect to the towers. Old SIM card displayed "No Service" under the Mobile Network icon. I called CS they activated my new SIM. New SIM card displayed "Verizon Wireless." However I still wasn't able to get data. They then escalated the ticket. After I hung up the phone I tried these APN settings:

These worked, not sure if the previously mentioned APN settings would of worked as I did not try them with my new SIM card. It could very well be that those APN settings would of worked too. So, long story short I'm thinking the original SIM I used became corrupted somehow. Not sure how that could of happened but everything is functioning properly. I then called ST CS and had them close my ticket before they made any more changes to my account from their side. Thanks to all who replied to this thread.
Thought I would provide another update... For some reason the APN settings for TRACFONE.VZWENTP stopped working today. Called straight talk and got data working again using the VZWINTERNET apn setting. So weird. Not sure why I'm updating this thread but I thought it was important? LOL probably not, because straight talk seems to be a Sh** storm. LOL IM GOING CRAZY!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeee
APN not working for me
Hello, I had straight talk last year on my unrooted verizon samsung galaxy s5 and had no problems with the apn settings. I rooted my phone about 2 months ago using this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370. Today I decided to reactivate my straight talk service and I have tried multiple apns and none of them seem to work. Also the apn on this forum wouldn't even save on my phone. Any idea on what i should do? Maybe I need a new sim card?

Update, i finally got my data working. I had to use a new sim card as well. I am currently using the verizon CDMA sim card that came in the byop pack. Been having some issues receiving text and mms messages tho and the apn used is what is on this forum since it is compatible with the sim without making any changes.
Have GS4 using on Straight Talk VZW towers but have been unable to get 4G working 3G is doing ok. Was changing apn settings to this post and also noticed that i am unable to input manually the APN type....options being (Internet+MMS) (Internet) and (MMS)
may be a bad sim as well but just wanted to chime in and see if anyone had run into similar issues.
Thanks in advance!!

I would just try to talk to Straight Talk about it, it could be the sim card, or it could be the phone number you currently have. I just reactivated my service hoping no one else had my number but they did which had ended that person's service, which was why i was having a difficult time receiving text and mms. Now that i have a new number and used a new sim card everything works fine. I also can't manually change the Verizon apn but so far i have no need to change it.
Same issues but I have a Galaxy Sky Pro. Straight talk and verizon towers. Tried changing APN, NO luck. It will only let me change my APN, NOTHING ELSE????? It is a straight talk phone???? HELP!
