[Q] No data access - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

So I gave my girl friend my old HTC HD2 swapping out her old Blackberry. For some reason however she is not getting any data service (she is on T-Mobile). Talk and texts work fine but for some reason all we see is "H+" where it should say 3g. Currently she is running CyanogenMod-7-04052011 from TyphooN v3.0.0. Build # GRI40. We called Tmobile and they switched her service plan from the Blackberry service to android. and it worked for about 2-3 hours but now its back to "H+" with no data at all.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? I havent tried to update her to the newest version. But i know the phone worked fine because i used it with my AT&T sim card and it worked fine.
Help would be greatly appreciated!

H+ is good. Its faster then 3g. Make sure the apn settings are right.
Settings/wireless and network / mobile networks, access point names/press menu to add, fill in info, press menu after and save. Then tick the box and your set.

Use T-mobile Htc Hd2 On AT&T 3G Network?

Hi guys, i have already searched the forums and cant find anything related to my title. Basically i would like to know if i could use my hd2 on at&t 3g network and how can i do it. I know i can unlock my hd2 by asking t-mobile but would it work on at&t? Thanks in advance
yeah it works on at&t network but not as 3g. It gets E which is the edge. If you search the forum there's a cab file that will program the phone so you can use data connection with at&t network. I got my phone unlocked via tmobile and have been using it with at&t for a couple weeks now without any problems.
SO you are basically saying that i can do anything i can already do with the phone on t mobile on at&t but except have 3g? So i would have to use edge as my data connection for internet? And how does sms work? Any settings to change to get it to work?
Install this cab file, its all you need to do

These are the att settings everything will just work
on att, you can use gprs/edge , but of course no 3g
You have to have T-Mobile account to get the HD2....they don't sell them unlocked... after 40 days of use on a t-mobile account, t-mobile customer service will provide youw ith an unlock code, not before...

I'm wondering, if the radio can be flashed to support AT&T 3G band, or components are different...

No, can't be flashed to work on AT&T 3G. You would have to get the Australian Telstra 9193 model which uses the 850 band that AT&T uses. That's the only way to use AT&Ts 3G with the HD2. The bands are set in the hardware.

this is incorrect. anyone can get the hd2 without contracts @full price of 450 plus tax. they will also unlock it in 1 to 5 days if you paid full price.got mine from wirefly, and had it unlocked in 2 days.

I have an HD2 on AT&T and everything works, but not fine! If I am browsing the internet and the phone tries to update the weather or mail, really anything else that accesses data in the background it will stop my data connection everywhere. It seems the only way to fix this is a hard reset sometimes, at the very least I have to exit the browser, open the task manager, kill everything, and turn off the data connection in the wireless controls and turn the data back on... My questions to the others who are using this phone on AT&T are 1) are you experiencing the same problems? 2) What did you do to fix this. I have installed the above mentioned cab file for settings and I have also manually entered the settings. I would love the phone even though it only has EDGE except it cant hold a data connection for more than 10 minutes at a time.

Well due to the type of connection that EDGE is, you cannot be on the internet and talk on the phone at the same time. This would also go for all applications that use the data connection...only one at a time. This was the case on the pre-3G phones like the HTC Wizard (Cingular 8125).

The phone cannot and will not get 3G when used on the AT&T network, despite what your icons show...the hardware simply isn't capable. Period.
Bought my unlock code through ebay for $14.00 and had the phone unlocked in 20mins. HD2 works great now.

G = GPRS
E = EDGE
look them up on wikipedia if you want more info but.....
GRPS is older and slower than Edge, GRPS max speed in ideal conditions is somewhere i the upper double digits/ lower triple digits. You might be lucky to get into the 200kbps range with EDGE.
In the end both suck compared to being able to get tmobile's 3g signal which ive personally seen hit 5mbit/s here in tampa now that HSPA+ is deployed. Being able to get ATT's 3g might get you right around 1mbit if lucky. I dont know what if any plans ATT has for HSPA+ deployment

I just bought the hd2 and planning on unlocking it to work on AT&T. I know that I will be getting Edge instead of 3g. But can someone plz explain to me how does it work as far as data plans and mms. Do i need to have a data plan to send mms or mms will be sent through edge. and as for data and web browsing , do i have to have a data plan or since when i go online i will be on edge so i dont need a data plan

[Q] Limited Service, Emergency Calls Only - No Signal

Hello all!
I've made some searches, but I could not find a resolution to my problem (and very few people seem to have this problem!).
Sometimes, in Android only, my phone will drop signal to zero. This most often happens when coming out of sleep, but it happens sometimes when I'm just holding it, too.
I'm thinking that it most often happens when it switches from HSDPA to EDGE or from EDGE to HSDPA or when it gets a particularly strong cell signal (rarely, though; I'm on T-Mobile USA).
I've read about PPP drops, but I don't think this is the same--in my case, the signal just goes to nothing. It's like I'm in a basement. No voice calls, no SMSes.
Once, I was able to get to the choose-a-network-screen; there, I chose T-Mobile, and it told me that the SIM was not the correct one for the network. Other times, I've gotten to that screen and T-Mobile could be chosen. Another time, it'll give me an "error when searching for networks."
Does anyone have any suggestions for this?
Thanks!
Edit: I thought I'd clarify; this happens across every Android build. I've tried 15 and 14 radios. The Europeans seem to have this too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796713 ... Is there a solution for this? Thanks!
Have you tried using secret setting to get onto phone options and change cdma preferred to gsm auto prl. I used to have this problem too. Dial *#*# 4636#*#* to get to those settings or download free app "secret phone setting" from market. Hope this helps.

Hi,
Thanks for your input! Unfortunately, I think this disables 3G in general as well... do you know of a workaround that still lets me keep 3G?
Thanks!
Edit: My apologies; other solutions that have mentioned GSM seem to think that it keeps it at 2G. Looks like this might work, even for 3G! I'll keep y'all updated. Thanks again!
How does this work for you?
I have ths same problem, and I can't get the 3G to work regardless of all the setting.
Also tried the secret setting.
Still limited service
Using tmobile usa, t-zones, rafdroid 3.0
Was okay and slightly on and off intermittently until yesterday, totally lost connection.
Please help
Hi,
Did anyone here able to resolve the problem? I have exactly the same problem. I am on T-Mobile US (HTC sensation 4G), my phone has stopped picking up any signal. It always shows "limited service/no signal". T-Mobile customer center is saying that there is no issue of signal strength in my area. In the phone, under wireless and netwoks setting, I am unable to check "mobile network" option too. I did factory reset too but thats also not working. I have also contacted T-Mobile and tried using the settings they provided for APNs but that did not work too?
I tried searching at various places but no one seems to have faced this issue. Any help on this issue would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Limited Service, Emergency Calls Only - No Signal
Our HTC HD2 is showing Limited Service, Emergency calls only.
We are running Android From NAND by aMAGLDR V1. 11 build DEC 31 2010 Cotulla 2010. The Limited Service, Emergency calls only began today
at 9am and the issue hasn't been resolved.
Is there any step by step suggestions?
Changed secret settings WCDMA to
GSM auto (PRL) with no resolution.
Would a hard reboot resolve this issue? How is a step by step hard reboot performed on the HTC HD2?
Thanks in advance.....
First step tho I'm sure you tried this already would be to reseat the sim card, followed by testing the sim in another phone, then another sim in the hd2.

When T-Mobile opens we will install new SIM.
The HTC HD2 is new so have no idea if the issue is
any of the above you listed. T-Mobile has the best service plans
but the worst customer service.
We require a true unlimited plan because 90% of our calls are
to landlines.
Thanks for your response.
HTC HD2 running Android.
Required sim card upgrade!
7 NOV 2011 UPDATE ON LIMITED SERVICE, EMERGENCY CALLS ONLY!
Visited a T-MOBILE store and the SIM card was 2G and they upgraded
the SIM card. It resolved the issue.
We thank everyone who contributed to this issue.
T-MOBILE representative stated the HTC HD2 could never achieve
4G. Attempted to upgrade us to a Galaxy 4GS II. We will never
pay retail for a phone.

Network Mode
I had this issue as well on my HTC Sensation. What worked for me was to set Network Mode to "GSM Only" (Settings/Wireless & Networks/Mobile Networks/Network Mode).
It was weird, when I had 4 bars I could make/receive calls, but when reception was 2-3 bars it wouldn't. It has been less than 24 hrs so not completely sure the problem has gone away but worth a shot.
Bonne chance.
My solution
Hey Guys!
I had the same problem after upgrading my Moto Milestone 2 to 2.3.6 Vivo ROM. When I went to class at university I had "Emergency calls only" - not "limited service" or "no service". So I had receiption... Also I could select any other provider but not my own (T-Mobile Hungary). The same thing happened when I was at home, in the house. The strange thing was that I didn't have any problem at any other place. Also, when I locked my screen and didn't use the phone, I had bars and could receive calls&sms, but after waking up the phone, the bars went down to 0 and got the "Emergency calls only" message.
I Googled a bit and found an answer which was worth a try before asking for a new SIM card from my provider ('cause that was the only solution I found in every other forum).
So the things to do are:
dial *#*#4636#*#*
go to Phone information
Scroll down to "Set preferred network type"
Select "GSM auto (PRL)"
My default was "GSM only" and after setting to auto I had full bars.
One thing to note: I don't use 2G or 3G or 4G or any other G. I just use WiFi for browsing and other than that, GSM to receive calls and send SMS. If you need 3G I think you need to change to some other settings. But you should give it a try.
Cheers!
Emergency calls only; When Android pie sleeps
I notice several times since I loaded Android Pie on my Oneplus One that the system, to save battery, is shutting down apps, even system apps. One of these is the phone service causing my phone to read Emergency calls only. After picking it up, about 30 sec, it registers 3 bars as normal. I am concerned that I am missing calls and text messages because after it turns on I get text messages. So, what is going on here? Any Ideas?

Phone has Randomly gone into NO SERVICE

my phone hasnt gotten any signal for the last 2 days. i dont know what happened, the phone just says NO SERVICE. I know its not my T-Mobile account since my sim card works perfectly on another phone. this phone has never been dropped, and its only about 3-4 wees old. It started when I was eating lunch in my school's cafeteria (which is underground) when i noticed i had no service and a "g" every once in a while (theres usually atleast 2 bars and always 3g since my school is downtown). i thought nothing of it since it was underground, but my signal never came back.
what should i do? i flashed the newest radio earlier and now i dont even get the "g" anymore.
it's running virtous 0.8.1 with S-OFF. i also tried my cyanogenmod backup but there was no difference.
im going to try to return everything back to stock and see if it works. did this happen to anyone else? if so how did you fix it?
does anyone have any information that could help?
Probably a long shot, but have you tried enabling and then disabling airplane mode?
Idk if this'll work, but hey its worth a try call *#*#4636#*#* and change your settings, it should restart your network. Hopefully.

Did you test the SIM in another phone? Did you try enabling 2G networks only to determine if this is related to 3G/4G? Did you call tmo to see if there are network issues in your area?

All bets are off until you restore the stock rom with OTA update. Post back once you've returned it to factory because tbh, nobody from T-Mobile can or will help you either if your phone is all jacked up.

This is a network issue, its not your rom, no worries. When registration fails or network not allowed happens, tmo needs to send an engineer to the local towers to fix it up or file a trouble ticket. Is it happening within your home area, such as a 7 - 10 mile radius - or wider.
Take my word for it, you need to call

I have the same problem, and I'm in the LA area. Called, T-Mo and they said there werent any outages at the time.
Tried enable/disable airplane mode. no go.
Tried enabling only 2g mode. no go.
I don't have another phone with me to try my sim card in right now, so will try that later (T-mo rep said to use the new sim card).
I'm running stock on my g2. Will update when I get it fixed.
I'm having the same issues. went back to the stock ROM. went through several different ROMs still, the same.
Someone PLEASE help.
Sim card try another, seriously, happend to me once and a friend... went back to stock and everything.
G2 doesn't like sim cards....
Same thing happened to me. Card worked in my old G1 but not my G2...it was less than 30 days so they replaced it. This is worrying me though...I hope it's not a common issue that can just happen any time.

[Q] Need help with unlocked Verizon Trophy

I bought a Htc Verizon Trophy and had it factory unlocked by Verizon . Popped in my AT&T sim card and it only gets edge and not 3G . I performed several hard resets and entered the correct APN settings and still no 3G. T-mobile sim card works also but edge is expected. Voice and Internet work great but I was under the impression that it was dual mode and has the AT&T 3G radios and should work on 3G.
Any suggestions or pointers on getting the 3G working?
Thanks
Download "HTC Connection Setup" under the HTC apps in the Market. Select AT&T from the settings and it should help you out.
Also, make sure your AT&T area offers 3G coverage. In my area of Northwest PA, 3G coverage is almost none existent. Basically, if your sim allowed 3G on another phone before, it should be okay (or check AT&T coverage map).
Be careful, I used this program to set my Verizon settings and now I can't get data on Verizon anymore. . Guess that's what I get for playing around.

Did you restore your trophy to a backup from before you used HTC connection setup? I just did the interop unlock for my trophy as well and I cant get 3G data back. Im hoping restoring the phone to an old backup will fix the problem. Verizon better not have somehow blocked our phones from getting 3G!

Droid Ultra from Verizon to T-Mobile

Thought I'd post my experience on here just because I know a lot of us are switching over and I must have gone through fifteen different threads to figure out how to get my data, talk, and text working. To start off I bought a T-Mobile nano sim and just plugged it straight into my droid thinking it would all be gravy...nope. This is exactly what I had to do: First, go into your mobile network settings and change to LTE/UTMS/GSM. Second, change your (Select Network) to GSM only. Third, create an APN that is as follows: NAME;T-Mobile, APN; epc. tmobile. com, MMSC; ht tp:// mms . msg. eng. t-mobile . com/mms/wapenc . APN Type; default, mms, supl APN Protocol; ip4/ip6. LEave everything else alone. trust me this is the most reliable way to go about doing the switch over and the data is fast, plenty fast. The phone info . apk app does work but for the ultra its not needed so don't worry with it. HAPPY SAVINGS all you DROID LOVERS.
Thanks for the help. I have unlimited Verizon with my bootloader unlocked, but I have issues with good service here where I live and work with Verizon. T-mobile may be better, so I am considering trying it out soon. I am going to test TMO for 7 days with their free program and see. If it works, I may just follow these directions and use my Droid Maxx.

How ur work on gsm? If I out mines on gsm internet won't work. Umts is the only way mines work. I get h+ but at times its slow. Worst playing games
P.s am on metro PCs same crap lol T-Mobile all my settings r from T-Mobile
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app
I picked up a Droid Maxx XT1080M (Not the ultra, but they seem so.. similar....) which was unlocked.
I popped a NanoSIM into it, rebooted, and it took a minute but the device figured out to auto switch to the GSM/UMTS/LTE side of the baseband. After that the only thing I needed to do was add the T-Mobile LTE APN.
I'd check your APN and make sure it's on fast.t-mobile.com. From what I've noticed is that when I boot it up, and WIFI is off, if I am to start browsing it goes from E (edge) to H (HSPA) to LTE in about ... 2-3 minutes of browsing/using data. Then it sticks on LTE. This is not always the case as I've rebooted a few times tonight without it bumping down to EDGE.
Getting 43mbps down and 33 mbps up on LTE, and 6down/2up on UMTS/HSPA. In Seattle... This device hits the sweet spots for T-Mobile LTE bands with 1700/2100. We'll miss out on their 1900 build-out, but should still have HSPA+ on those other bands anyway.
One odd message I get after every reboot is The SIM card is from an unknown source. does not seem to affect anything. Anyone know if this is normal? I've not seen this error before on other unlocked devices.
I am on metro, I don't have that issues at all. I pop in Sim, did a apn n wallah 4g LTE n every work fine took me a hot minute to figure out how to get LTE to work.
The Sim car error is Cuz its a Verizon fone. It doesn't effect the fone at all. Once we get root n we get to flash I know we won't c that no more.

Sadly, my phone seems to have a borked radio.
What happened? So I popped in T-Mobile SIM card, and calling and texting is a charm. (Except for the Unknown SIM issue, of course.) I then found out that I was getting NO data after a factory reset. So then I looked to downgrade OS version, blah blah, flashed radio, did fastboot config carrier, so on and so forth. No joy. Sigh...

Verizon has changed something in the system part of the most recent ROMs to prevent t-mobile use. I had the same issues. For some, I could bypass the block by removing some of the CDMA references in build.prop. For the most recent Verizon ROM, nothing I tried worked.
Luckily, I am unlocked. Moved originally to a ported Moto X ROM, and then to CM12, and everything works fine there.
That's odd, I'm on the latest build and have 0 issues with Tmobile.
I just plugged my T-Mobile nano sim in last night and used the instructions on this thread and a few others around the internet to get T-Mobile 4GLTE or HSPA+ to work. I can text, make calls, and I get all the Edge (shown as an "E") data i want, but It is way to slow to be useful. I have tried it on both my droid maxx phones (one 2013 - 32gb, and one 2014 - 16gb). Both are on latest system version 24.3.7. Any other advice to make data work decent? I can get NO 4G or HSPA+
Does tmo say you have wcdma or LTE access where you are.
I am having the same issues after FDR and data wouldn't work anymore. In my area I am LTE so the droid ultra that worked well in the last 4 months on T-Mobile, I think it is a software problem.
Yes it is software problem. If you can get your phone rooted and bootloader unlocked then reflash the rom it works perfectly. I get LTE on tmobile on the CM rom no problem.
I run LTE just fine.. All I needed to do was add T-Mobiles APN to my phone..
