Hello, I had originally purchased a Samsung Focus unlocked for use on the Rogers network in Canada. I had no data until I installed Samsung's network profile app and switched it to Rogers. I have since switched to Koodo as a carrier. I once again have no data only this time there is not an option on the network profile application.
Any ideas on how to get data?
EDIT: Sorry, and do so if I wanted to not use Chevron's unlock method then get Samsung tools. So as in, is there any other way.
For data, you don't need the Samsung Network tool at all. You just need find out the APN for your new carrier and put it in. The Network tool is only needed for MMS.
Here is the APN for Koodo:
◦APN: sp.koodo.com

There is a network profile changing app made by Samsung in the marketplace, I tried it but doesn't let me change my profile as my phone is locked to rogers.
Anyone with an unlock phone should be able to change their network profile with this app.
that would be a wonderful idea. except it doesn't work!
I wonder If my phone is actually unlocked? I can make calls recive text, and use Data, with APN manually enter, but the phone 3 G connection . craps out SayS it's connected with strong signal but can't to nothing. have to soft reset to work again

Is there anyway to trick or hack the app so i can use it to switch. I have a focus from rogers w/ a bell sim.
MMS obviously don't work , and i really would like to use it again.
After struggling for days over this app, I found the solution to make it work.
Samsung Network Profile App does not work with no-do update. If you are already on no-do and install this app, it will not do anything. This is a major problem for people having MMS issues.
If you already had Network Profile installed, and switched to desired profile, prior to no-do update, you will be ok. However, if you factory reset on no-do, you will lose settings.
The way to get this app to work is to use Zune to restore to prior state, 7004 or 7008 and install Network Profile app. Make the change you need. And then update to no-do.
These instructions are important for T-Mobile USA users who have unlocked ATT Samsung Focus.
Obviously, your phone needs to be SIM unlocked for Network Profile app to work.
Mine is Unlocked Focus, and also Dev Unlocked, with fresh 7004 ROM. Using 3 Indonesia carrier, but still when I choose 3 INA in network profile, it's just loading, then back to the previous screen with ATT still the chosen one.
I guess some people are having some luck with this. I have a Samsung Focus bought at Rogers and running it on FIDO. No way no how can I get MMS to work. I popped in an AT&T simcard and it does change the settings to Cingular MMS. But for the life of me I cannot get any FIDO settings to set or work. Even with a Registry Editor physiocally typing in FIDO MMS settings, it will not take !
I have an AT$T 1.3 Focus, I installed 7712 Mango and called att and unlocked my sim, put buddies TMobile sim in my phone, used unlock code. The app works fine for me. Shows two At$t profiles. One "AT&T" other "ATT"
My girlfriend just unlocked her HTC Trophy on verizon. We put my att sim card in it, and voice/text worked great but she didn't have any 3g data, only edge.
Anyone know an apn setting so that way we can get the 3g data working on her phone?
PS, unlocking the Trophy was the easiest thing ever, vzw provided her with the code.
I paid to get a T-mobile galaxy s5 sim unlocked so that I could use it on At&t. I'm located in the US. I took the sim out of another non-functioning at&t galaxy s5 and put it in the t-mobile one. The sim unlock code was successful, and ever since then my calls and texts have been working just fine. However, the mobile data connection is not working and I cannot seem to ascertain why this may be. I have tried scanning for networks and automatic network selection through the settings --> more networks --> Network operators menu. Mobile data is enabled. I have a data plan through at&t. Wi-fi still works. Any ideas on how to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I was hoping that rooting the phone may help the issue, but I am new to this concept. As I have gathered, only certain models of s5 can be rooted as of yet, and I did not find a thread on rooting the G900T model for the s5's. Thanks for any help!
I think you must set the APN from Setting. Ask the AT&T providet for the APN.
Hey S4ers,
So I recently gave my friend my S4 (i337) restored to NB1. She does not have an active data plan, but I figured since I'm giving her the phone, it wouldn't matter too much.
She used to have an unlocked T-Mobile Phone working on AT&T, just running it on the EDGE network.
Anyway long story short, she cannot receive MMS anymore after using this phone. The phone has signal, but does not display E, 2G, 3G, 4G, or LTE. Just the signal bars. So I ordered an unlock code and received it, thinking that if I unlock the SIM that she could get this functionality. I tried the #0111*CODE# method in the dialer and receive an incorrect MMI message. Are there any other methods to unlocking the phone with the code that I have? No root would be ideal, because she has everything all set up on it, but I am open to any suggestions, really. I was wondering if I am going down the correct path in enabling MMS, by unlocking the phone like her old one used to be, or if AT&T needs to be contacted.
FYI, when we set up the phone, we called AT&T to register the new SIM, and provided the IMEI number, is it possible that they turned off any functionality because it was a smart phone without a data plan?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

What carrier SIM is being used in it? Also check your APN settings.
She is on AT&T and the APN is good. We had to get a new micro sim
