You'll need to contact your network provider.
Go into Comm Manager, select the Phone (not the on/off switch), go to the bottom and select Band. Make sure both are set to Auto. Sometimes this is set to GSM and wont work in America.
Then go to Settings, select All Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> Network. Change from Automatic to Manual, then select Find Network. If you can see networks then the problem is with your network provider not allowing you to connect.
Silly question, but have you taken your phone off Airplane Mode in the Comm Manager from the flight?

Hello all,
I have a XDA Exec, running windows 6.1, with a 3g sim and 10gig data plan from o2 in Ireland. My problem is I get nothing more than a few kb a sec. Normally 1-2kb/s. I've logged a call with o2 but expect nothing more that a response of "Its due to the area you are in" But I have tried it all over. In Dublin, Kilkenny, Waterford and a lot of other areas and its always old style GSM speeds. So has anyone got any ideas as to what it might be? Maybe a setting on the phone? Dont have an other 3g handset to try sadly. This is really needed as I have moved down to Kilkenny now and have no net other than what is on the phone.
Thanks
forgot to say, I am using radio 1.15 if that matters
ok, after a bit of searching, I am after setting the band to Auto under the phone settings. But still only GSM access speeds. I will be in waterford a little later and will try access the net there to see if there is a difference. Any other thoughts as to what it can be?

Hope this helps:
Go to Start/Settings/Connections
On your conection (Proxy settings) be sure that "This network connects to the Internet" is selected.
Go to Start/Settings/Personal and select "Band" and change "Select your Network Type" to WCDMA and then "Select your GSM/UMTS band" a GSM(1900+850)+UMTS(1900+850)
that´s it, next time you connect to internet, it has to connect to HSDPA (the connection icon should change to "H")
I have a debranded Orange UK phone and I have been having problems when roaming.
I have recently been to the Netherlands and Romania, and I have to manually select the network. This is really annoying if I move from one cell to another I have to again manually select the network. so most of the time I'm roaming I am not contactable. I have obviouslly tried setting it to automatic but it is unable to connect when I do this.
First select a network manually, then again go to wireless networks, then select automatic.. I has this problem earlier...

Have the same problem. Helps if you restarts the phone

Hi
since i flashed my n9005 with 4.4.2 i have problem with carrier switching,
i use carrier that allows to connect with network by two ways:
by mother carrier - let say nr 1
or by two other carrier with domestic roaming - networks 2 and 3.
when i use my network 1 - i can connect with LTE speed, while in roaming only speed H is allowed.
And my problem is when i manually connect with network 1 my phone keeps switching to 2 or 3 after loosing signal even for few seconds - in elevator or staircase.
I wanted to lock it on my network by i can't.
Didn't have that problem with Note2 LTE...
is there any way to lock on single network, i don't have option to disable roaming, there is only option for data roaming.
Have you tried just going to settings --. connections --> more networks --> Mobile Networks -> Network Operators --> selecting the #1 network? If you select one here, the phone should turn off Auto switching and it can't change to another network unless you select one manually via this method. Or at least, mine remains on 'no service' untill I select another when crossing the border.

I got an international version SM-G900i from Amazon. I have an ATT sim card. The text and phone calls work fine but I could not get any data roaming. Though from other posts I got the data roaming, I was not able to set onto the ATT 3G/2G network in the network operator selection. My network is always shown as Maritime. Does anybody know why this happens and ways to change it?
Thanks a lot.

I tried configure the APN setting based on a link online for ATT APN. Now I am losing signals even for calls and texts....I think there might be other things that are wrong...
Error message for no ATT service
Tried different variety of ATT APN setting. Still could not get it to work....the phone shows a signal but gave me an error message that Selected network(AT&T) not available

I'm not sure what did you mean by "data roaming"??
Anyway, the problem for now is no network register. The APN settings will NOT affect at this step, so not not try to mess up with it right now.
Try to get into Settings > More networks > Mobile networks, and set Network mode to Auto connect, and Network operator > Select automatically.
That may help the device to register on the Home network.
Problem solved....or maybe not but it is working!

Okay. Thanks. I switched it back to the auto-selection mode. By data roaming....I mean 3G data. My phone is working now. I checked ATT billing usage report, it did not increase the data usage dramatically so I guess everything is fine.

Glad that your phone works now.
BTW "data roaming" and "3G data" are different things. "data roaming" is "3G data" when you are roaming to another network (not your home network).
I am using nokia 6 since 3 months. I failed to find network option where i can select 3g only or 4g only network. At my home location network switches every minute, m unable use data, this is annoying. M using idea n airtel on dual sim.
My other phone Xperia Z1 is having that option to select 3g only network... Where it wont loose connectivity.
To post this issue, i switched network twice. Pls help.

Try dialling *#*#4636#*#* and select the first entry (Telephone information). You can set your preferred network type there. On my phone there are a lot of options to choose from, including LTE only, WCDMA only, etc.
