G1 + Cyanogen 4.2.8 + att = not working

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

Same error while trying to select the provider: "Your sim card does not allow a connection to this network".
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:
Name: att
APN: wap.cingular
Username: [email protected]
Password: cingular1
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
tyweezy can you please compare it with yours?

I tried, didn't work, probably because i couldn't add the apn.

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 ?

[Q] Tmous HD2 MNC wont change

Hi Folks,
My issue is with a new HD2 TMous. I purchased it "unlocked" and was able to slap my ATT sim card in and make/receive calls. At first the edge network wasnt working but I was able to add the att wap.cingular into the winmo connections and get edge. After a couple restarts and setting up mail accounts/ importing sim contacts edge stopped working. I thought I just needed to fix the apn again so I popped froyostone2.2 in and was happy with the look. When I tried to setup the APN in android I found the MCC and MNC were auto setting to 310 and 560. I popped in some known working settings (called ATT to confirm) and just could not get my phone to connect to edge again. Each time I set the MNC to 410 (settings from another ATT local customer) my APN would clear out. I tried the set it up and restart and set it up again trick with no luck. Sometimes the connection comes up but thats all just the up arrrow in the indicator blinks and no traffic is sent.
Tried:
-Differnt Winmo rom
-Differnt Android rom
-3 Different radio roms
Looking for help with:
-Anyway to force the MNC to go to and stay at 410? Is this a hardware limitation with these phones?
-Anyone else running HD2 TMous in Alaska with working Edge?
-Could my hardware be scrambled? I didnt get an unlock code from the last owner, can I factory reset it an still use my sim? Will it wipe out the unlock?
I need the phone and willing to buy an unlock code if thats what it takes but I'd like to know a "rebuild" is what it needs before I dig deeper and what that entails.
Thanks a thousand times folks for any help!

[Q] 3G connection not working, already add apn

Hi,
I have added apn but 3g data connection still not working in WP7. Have tried several radio version (2.12, 2.14, 2.15) but still not working. My local ISP is taiwan mobile and apn is "internet" or "match". I did the same 3g config on Android ROM, 3g connection works perfect. Does anyone meet similiar error.
Thanks~
Try this thread maybe you inputted the wrong apn.

If its not listed in the original post keep looking through the thread to see if someone posted it, or try this site
http://www.jsmwireless.com/apn/apn-uz.html
I don't think I input the wrong APN. The same APN works in Android but fail in WP7.
Thanks anyway...
No one have the same issue???! I have tried another sim card and used htc connection setup tool and tried to flash all available WP7 ROMs but still 3g connection not working... The same APN works under WM6.5 and Android. WP7 is perfect with my HD2 but this issue is really annoying...
using the settings in the link worked for me (t-mobile uk) just need to activate live services

Anyone know why my phone keeps tripping into unknown carrier?

The only thing I can't seem to fix is my phone will constantly go to unknown carrier (it still has a signal and functions but it doesn't show T-Mobile as the carrier). I don't have international or roaming enabled and I only have the T-Mobile APN file set. My Rom, Radio, Etc is within my signature, I am running 2.14 because it seems to be the best fit for me here in VA with connectivity and such. Anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this error?
Thanks
Try to use 2G only.

[Q] T-Mobile/AT&T/GSM on Razr M

P3Droid has successfully gotten the RAZR M to run on AT&T. But my question is this: If I have a 3G ATT sim, will it work? Has P3 released the how to yet? I know i'm being impatient but I really need it because I urgently need to use this on ATT since my 'Backup' phone has just reached the end of life.
Thanks to all Devs involved!

TBH you're better off with a Razr I (which is same handset with 3G GSM only, and intel proc - don't worry about benchies, anand has confirmed it runs great w/ actually better battery life than S4).
The Verizon Razr M won't work with AT&T 4G, so Razr I is equivalent basically, + is fully unlockable bootloader, + better battery life, + cheaper, = win

I already bought the developer edition of the razr m and all I need to do is wait for p3droid 2 release instructions.

wintermute000 posted the Aussie radio image in the fast boot thread.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8648738/NON-HLOS.bin
All that is needed is to flash that in fast boot with the following command: fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
Then insert the SIM and reboot and it should just work. You may need to select GSM/UMTS in Mobile Networks settings. The APN is set automatically by the SIM and the apns-config.XML by default has the necessary APNs included for ATT and T-Mobile.
We intend to post a more complete tutorial but are trying to understand more about how it works and what doesn't work under the AU radio.
P3Droid has VZW 4g data and CDMA1X voice but no 3g data. I have no service at all with VZW SIM because I am in a 3g only area.
It appears to break eHRPD authentication probably because that is not used on Australian networks and is a very problematic part of how VZW's network is deployed.
When we get it figured out a little better we will post more information.
Right now it's pretty straightforward. You use the AU radio for GSM/UMTS service but must flash back to the VZW radio for normal CDMA/LTE/EVDO service.

This is GREAT! I've been waiting for something like this, and I've been following the progress ... see also my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973156&page=2 post #13
Just FYI, wintermute000 posted two images for the radio, one was zipped and dumped from mmcblk0p1, and the other is the one you linked to. I downloaded both and checked the MD5, they are the same.
Well, I think this is it, I'll get this phone, flash the radio, put my t-mobile sim in it, and cross my fingers ...

Let me know if you figure that one out.
I suppose we could always cover it up with a sticker or something.
I'm so mad that the aussie radio isn't compatible with my ATT card, can't connect to 2G, 3G, or 4G on ATT or TMO frequencies. Do I have to have the sim card out of the phone when I flash the radio cuz i left it in.

Dev Edition or retail?
Is voice working?
Did you go into settings and make sure the radio is set to GSM or WCDMA? Are you sure the APN is correct, or even there at all?

I researched APN a little bit.
When I type this into a new APN:
Name: StraightTalk ATT
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMSC proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Not set
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enabled (tick mark checked but grayed out anyways)
Bearer: Unspecified
I then press 'save' and it won't save the apn. Its as if the phone knows that its a Straight Talk APN and won't let it save. However, if i put random letters in each of the boxes, it lets me saves the APN. Any ideas as to why? Also which APN setting will work with the Aussie Radios?
Well, it doesn't look like you're supposed to be leaving the Proxy and Port blank.

Do you have any other APN I can use other than straight talk? I have a 4G ATT card inserted in my Dev Razr M. I can't connect at all to any service when i search and i already flashed the aussie radio
Edit: I see that my MNC and MCC codes have to be the same as found on the sim card otherwise the APN won't save. How do I know what those codes are for ATT 4g?

You can Google for the AT&T and T-Mobile ones, but it won't help you any to put a different carrier's APN in. If you're on Straight Talk, you need to be using Straight Talk's APN.

Thanks for your help, I truly appreciate it. I'm not on Straight Talk. So I guess I have to look up the APN values for ATT 4G. But is it even possible for me to get anything from 2G or better running on the Aussie radios. Like does the radio support those frequencies?

Yes, the radio supports those frequencies. If it flashed correctly, and the correct APN is used, it will work.

What crazy is that i tried all MNC and MCC codes for ATT such as 310 and 410 and others yet it won't save. I'm going to try reflashing the radio
After I do the command 'fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin' and it says something along the lines of Sending modem...OKAY and Writing modem....OKAY 30 Seconds Finished......it must've worked then. But at reboot it still says sim is from invalid source so I've narrowed the problem donw to the APN settings.

I hear invalid SIM source is from the stock ROM. It is probably to annoy you and keep you on Verizon.

Yes. You'll still need to figure out how to configure your APN but it'll stop that invalid sim message from popping up.
