You need to manually enter the APN Settings (below) under Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names.

Did you get the NAM (Bell Canada) version of the Desire Z? That's what I have, and I got data working by doing the above.

X10a on ATT 3G (Can't get any data connection 2g/3g) Help :(

Hey guys,
I just got my X10a and unlocked it. I popped in my SIM card and I can call and text and so forth, but i'm not getting ANY Data connection...
I tried going to the Network settings where you can choose your network, and there were 2 networks, ATT DR (data roaming?? no idea) and the ATT. I can connect to the ATT DR but not ATT (it gives me a error stating: "This SIM card does not allow connection to this network).
I live in California and wondering if anyone in this area has solved this or even have this issue? I called ATT but they were of no help, all they can keep telling me is that is because the phone is not ATT branded. But I had used a Nokia N900 on ATT and it got Edge at least....
Any ideas? Greatly appreciated.
You need to go into your settings and manually enter the AT&T apn settings.

What is the difference between AT&T DR and AT&T? Does the DR mean the phone will always be roaming whether it's calls or data?
network operator: AT&T DR
network mode: GSM/WCDMA preferred

Maybe APN - manually or automatically from SE:
Settings > Sony Ericsson > Settings download
Download settings for Internet and MMS
You'll get settings for your current carrier, so - for ATT.

Nexus 4 not connecting to data using Straight Talk via Att

Hello, I recently signed up with Straight Talk via AT&T and am not able to get my Data services to connect or send/receive any MMS. I have configured my APN settings multiple times now and actually just got off the phone with straight talk about this issue as well. They were no help.
I am using Straight Talks at&t network and my phone reads this under settings>about phone>status...
Mobile Network Type: HSPA:10
Service State: In service (I have 4 bars)
Mobile Network state: Disconnected
Also when I go to the *#*#4636#*#* menu, It says this...
GPRS service: Disconnected
GSM disconnects: ========DATA=======
How can I fix this and get data and mms to work??
If you find anything out, please tell us! I'm starting to think its something that is wrong with the phone...
interesting... I just joined straight talk today using ATT micro sim and i have the same issue... I also have full bars.
I used the following APN and it didn't work for me.

I was able to get on using their T-Mobile APN settings.

On the AT&T on ST,
I didn't set the first Port you have listed after APN, I left it as "not set" instead of 80.
To the OP can you list what you set your APN to? Did you look at the Straight Talk thread in general area?
Also it might sound weird but check under Settings > Mobile Network Settings > Data enabled.
For some reason it wouldn't be checked for me when I was flashing a ROM or going back to stock ROM.
These are my settings:

Why would the block something they sell and offer service through.
Its also noted on their site, that MMS may not work on some devices
"Updating your APN settings does not guarantee MMS (Multimedia/Picture Messaging) will work." Quoted from StraightTalk.com
I just got off the phone with Straight Talk and I bought a new AT&T micro sim card from Walmart. I asked if they are still supporting it, and they said absolutely, they will continue to. Just FYI

I had the same thing happen to me today and I am on ATT sim. I sent straight talk an email and they sent back a response asking me to call
855-222-2355. The agent had me make sure my data was on then I turned off the phone for 1 minute why she did something on her side. After that it started working again. I asked her what she did so the next time this happens I could just say this has happened before and this is how they fixed it. The agent stated to just call the number above and state that your data is not working and they will resolve the issue. No help, but that is what happened to me.

Same problem. Straight Talk has been working for months, and all of a sudden yesterday no data. I am lucky if I use data a handful of times a month, so I know I am not over any limits. I am glad I printed out Google maps before I left on my trip as a backup, because it was a 120 mile trek. I went to an AT&T store while on the road out of desperation and a person was kind enough to look at the phone and believes the hardware is OK and it is a Straight Talk issue. I am assuming the "Mobile Network State = Disconnected" I am getting is not a good thing. I will give them a call today.
EDIT: Just got off the phone with Straight Talk. They gave me new APN settings, and this is the first time since I have had Straight Talk (4 months) that I am able to get data at my house (It worked while on the road). It is also the first time I ever saw the little capital "H" near the signal icon, whatever that is. I am in quite a dead zone and previously could only use wifi. Yippee! I also see that "Mobile Network State = Disconnected" had nothing to do with getting data as it works now and it is still listed as Disconnected.
EDIT: These are the new settings that Straight Talk gave me:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: att.mvno

Those original settings weren't for StraightTalk but for AT&T. Two totally different services.

FYI the phone won't connect to mobile data until you are using it, its to save the battery. That's why it shows as disconnected in mobile network state. To verify this turn off wifi, if your connect to it, open a browser using your mobile data then check phone status.

Thanks for spotting that. Those are not the original settings I put into the phone; I thought they didn't look right. Apparently yesterday, instead of creating a new APN set, the guy in the AT&T store overwrote my Straight Talk settings while testing out my phone (Not too bright). It really doesn't matter, as neither settings worked properly anyway. I am only getting 1 Mpbs download and 0.10 Mpbs upload at my house now (better than the zero I was getting before), but I am going to have to take a drive later to see what improvement I get.

I see.
EDIT: The highest data speed I am getting is 1.09 Mbps no matter where I go, even running SpeedTest while staring at a several cell towers (Where the signal strength gets better). I gather that is bad from the numbers I see elsewhere?

[Q] How to Use a Tablet Sim for Data Only with Phone?

Here is what worked for me:
1. Call ATT and tell them you need to activate a new tablet device. (If they tell you the N4 is a phone and that you need to setup a phone plan tell them no thank you, hang up and try again). Give them your IMEI and let them active the device. They will activate the device and ask you to reboot. Once you reboot you should get a signal but network access. Tell ATT its working, thank them and hang up.
2. Setup a new APN with the following settings:
Name: AT&T broadband
APN: Broadband
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username: leave blank]
Password: leave blank)
Server: leave blank
MMSC: leave blank
MMS Proxy: leave blank
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: leave blank
Reboot your device and you should be good to go!
Hope this helps!
seems legit, but unfortunately there is already a thread describing all of this that is around 10 pages long.
Wrong forum.

Galaxy S4 I9500 - Net10 AT&T SIM APN Settings

I was using a Galaxy Note II with these settings and everything was fine.
Name: Net10
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 80
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32
MMS Port: 80
I switched to the Galaxy S4 and my Internet worked but my MMS/Picture Messaging was not working. I spent over 2 hours on the phone with Net10 last night trying different APN settings. And eventually they said it just wouldn't work. I didn't believe that, cause 99% of phones will work, all you need is the right settings. Well after hanging up I kept trying different settings. And I eventually got some that worked. So I thought I'd share them with everyone.

[Q] Network problem with T-mobile sim card on VZW Note 3

Please help the frustrated me
I put a T-mobile sim card on my VZW Note 3 and added an APN to for the mobile network, the 4G LTE flag shows up in the status bar as expected. The only problem is: when it uses data network instead of WIFI, all non-http network connections seem to get blocked and the only thing I can do is to use the browser to surf Internet. All other apps such as WeChat, Skype don't work at all. WeChat keeps reporting "Server access failure (1, -10087)".
I suspect there's a firewall built in the T-mobile data network but couldn't find any settings about it.
Does any expert here know to solve the problem?
Thanks!
I finally figured out that my Verizon note3 (N900V) can not use the T-mobile LTE network, but once I switched to 3G it worked fine.
This means for APN settings I have to use epc.tmobile.com instead of fast.t-mobile.com. I no longer remember the exact settings but I think it is close to the following (http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-1976):
Name: T-Mobile Data (or T-Mobile US)
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy: <Not set>
Port: <Not set>
Username: None
Note: For the Username, enter "None" with the keypad. Do not leave it not set.
Password: <Not set>
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: <Not set>
MMS port: <Not set>
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: <Not set>
APN type: default,supl,admin,dun,mms
Are you sure? I'm able to get 4G LTE on my note 3 when I'm outside. Skype works, facebook, and just about every other app except for wechat.
Already sim insert but no network plz soul
