Data Issue! - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My data was working completely fine on the 3G network. I was using the CM 10 rom which is fantastic by the way. This probably is completely unrelated to the ROM but I figured I would ask anyways to see if someone has had a similar experience.
I upgraded my mobile data today to 2 GB from 1 GB on T-Mobile and now all of a sudden I cant access my data ANYWHERE unless I am on WIFI. Why would this happen? Is this a T-Mobile doing or a ROM issue?
Thanks in advance!

The fact that you have changed your mobile data prescription has nothing to do with the mobile internet access.
Still, you can try the settings in "Settings/Mobile network settings" or "Settings/Defy Parts/Baseband selection" and even cash /dalwik wipe from the CWM.

[Q] Edge data connection

I just got my DHD yesterday and I'm having a problem getting a GSM data connection. Where I live only Edge is available and when I turn on the mobile networks it won't make a data connection. Before I got this phone I had a HD2 that I was running Android on and I noticed only about half of the builds would have a working Edge data connection, if I knew what the difference was maybe I would know better what to do here. Any suggestions?

I found the answer, all I needed to do was make a new APN and point it to my carrier's URL. In Thailand for AIS it was www.ais.co.th if anyone else is having a similar problem.
maybe the settings not right form your provider. was running hd2 before as well but on wm. i just put the sim in my dhd and it asked me to configure everything automaticly. clicked yes and everything works, even mms works without any manual config. was pretty hard on my hd2 to get it to work.

[Q] No Data connections via Phone in Android

Hi:
I am using AmeriCanAndroid AOSPHD2GB232CM7RC1|bkup2sdext234[KERNEL:AmCanAndroid r2.21] and just about everything works perfectly.
The only issue I seem to have is in Android, I cannot use the mobile phone to get internet. The Phone sends and receives call perfectly, but if I want to use Market or the browser, I get the error:
A NETWORK ERROR HAS OCCURED. rETRY OR cANCEL AND RETURN TO PREVIOUS SCREEN.
I think I have tried every combination of settings in the wireless section. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Chaz
the only known temp(!) fix is to restart ur phone , given ur settings are correct it should work for a while .... have you been switching data on/off a few times? thats when it happens to me ....
be sure to report this problem to rom cooker so it gets fixed faster ...
When you say restart, do you mean restart android? I don't think I have ever been connected, unless there was WIFI in the area.
I use this ROM without these problems.
Try to check the apn and the DNS. Have a look at the faq.

And : there is a TMobile US and a standard version.
Do you use the right one?

i have the same problem but im using HD2Froyo_V2.1.7z.
everything works perfectly fine except for my data connection.

No data connection
Yes I also has the same problem. Please let me know if you find a solution. Wifi works fine on my HD2 after flashing to Anroid 2.2 Bur no data connection through phone connection.

No Data connection
I am have the same problem on my phone also. Have the T-Mobile phone using the ATT system. Have tried several different roms and still cannot get a Data connection. A lot of us need some help please. If anyone can shed light on this, please let us know.
call t-mobile
i called t-mobile and told them, i could only connect to the internet via wifi. i pay for data and i cant connect unless its through wifi. DO NOT mention that you flashed your phone, put a different ROM or Android.
After doing this my internet started to work again
hopes this helps
do you set your APN?
May I ask what you told TMO?
I read in an older post that you may have to switch from smartphone data plan to android data plan to connect to the internet, does anyone have any idea about this??
I also am curious if my build is synonymous with failed data connection... as well as (not related item) battery sucking....???or any other know issues as I seem to misplaced the page I downloaded it from...

[Q] G2 Data not working right, Help please.

OK so my 3g was working fine before i permanent root my G2 and flashed a custom rom.
When i was using the custom rom i could only connect to wifi for internet.
I just reverted everything back to stock and the problem remains.
the problem is the "H" sign will appear with flashing arrows but webpages,market,youtube doesn't load anything. I get the error of no data connectivity.
i tried switching to EDGE but the same thing happens.
i know the APN is correctly set. AND its not a service issue because i tested same sim card on different phones and it downloads normally.
i Have no idea how to fix this
please help me, thanks
changing your current radio could fix the problem
Ive tried 4 different radios and its the same. I think i know whats the problem but can anybody confirm it?
I came from an tmobile HD2 which was wm6.5 so my internet is "smartphone unlimited data"
whereas i believe i need a specific "android data plan".
Is there a workaround for this ?
Nope. I came from an HD2 to a G2 and had to get an Android data plan. The good news was that I called T-Mobile and complained about the extra $5 and acted all upset and what not and they gave me the Android data plan for $25 like my Smartphone data plan was.
Darn ok so i guess calling them would be the only solution to fix it.
Did they say you had to pay extra to get 4g speed or is it included with that 25dollar plan?
They say that they can't guarantee 4g speeds and they just don't know but I can tell you. You definitely get the 4g speeds. Look at my sig. That's on the data plan I'm using now.

[Q] No Internet Sharing after traveling

So, I have a Verizon Wireless Trophy. I was thrilled to finally be able to use Internet Sharing, and I had it working fine. Then I travelled internationally and was using my Trophy on another carrier with a local SIM card. After returning home, I am no longer able to use Internet Sharing. As soon as I try to enable it, I get this error: Connection not shared - There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again. Yet my data connection is working fine. My guess is that the Connection Setup app messed something up?
I did contact HTC support, they basically said that they are aware of the issue but have no further information to give me.
Anyone else experience this? Any workarounds?
Many thanks,
I. Kinal

Are you using it on Verizon Wireless? If so, you need to have an official Internet Sharing package, or read my first post in my custom rom for instructions on bypassing it. This works even with the official SparkW (VZW) Trophy rom.
I'm assuming you are using the stock rom.
Yes, I am on Verizon with a Share Everything plan - like I said, everything was working fine before I left the US.
Yes, I am using the stock ROM.

Yeah, just try the PST modification. It's easy to do and it should make wifi hot spot work, assuming you have a data connection. I too, used to be able to use tethering with or without the dun mod, but since Verizon added the internet sharing package to their website, I must do the bypass.
Unfortunately, that did not work - had no effect.
I should add that that trick is how I got Internet Sharing working in the first place, despite the fact that I have a Share Everything plan.

Are you running Tango update (OS Version 8773)? If you used interop unlock to enable it in Mango v1, then the newest driver changes the method in which it works (I doubt you used interop unlock to enable it at all).
Do you have any data access on the phone at all? Can you load websites? If you can't, you need to open up Connection Setup and re-select Verizon Wireless even if you've already done it once, and that should reset the data connection (conversely, if you have data and select it, data will disappear).
Yes, my OS Version is 8773.
This phone has never been interop unlocked.
Data works just fine.

Same issue with me - Internet Sharing worked fine, but after using SIM card with international operator and trying to use Internet Sharing on Verizon I get the same message: "Connection not shared - There's no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again." Data service works fine by itself but not ICS. Any solutions?

Phone shows network but no data connection or calls possible

I have purchased a used Note 4. It was already rooted so i went ahead and installed Nameless ROM and the appropriate bootloader_modem.
Now, i have no data connection and can't make any calls. Even if the bars show that there is coverage. WiFi works fine.
My first idea was to revert it to stock so i downloaded the N910GDTU1COJ3_N910GXSA1COJ3_XSA stock rom and flashed it in Odin. Full wipe and cahce clean after the flash.
I am still facing the same problem that the phone doesn't have data or voice service. Any ideas what else to try or what could be the problem?
TIA
Anyone?
for me...i always lost signal... i dont know why...910f
Same issue
Went back to stock ROM a few months ago, but this has just started with me. 4 days and not able to connect to any data service.
Tried new Sim and manual network selection, just refuses.

Hi @dosada, i guess I.have the same problem as you, I can't connect to any 3G or 4G anymore. Now, I only can use 2G and Wi-Fi. so try to put network mode to 2G only, because if you put network mode in 4g or 3g or 4g/3g/2g automatic or 3g/2g automatic you will always end with Emergency calls only or no service. I already asked help for that but no one can solve it. I already tried everything I know but no way, no one can solve it. So just courage and let us know if you get solution somewhere.
I think that it is the last time that I use or buy a Samsung phone, they really suck recently. it's better to spend our money to buy other phone than Samsung, they lost the trust of their customers. They were number one but now...puffff...
