[Q] Nexus 7 3G No Data with AT&T SIM - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my Nexus 7 3G and inserted my SIM from my AT&T Galaxy Note II. I get 4 bars but cannot get data. I have tried using several of the AT&T APN settings I have used on other devices but cannot get data to work. Has any other AT&T user got this to work?
Note: I finally got it to work using the old wap.cingular settimgs.

Hope you have the right data package on your account or you're going to get flagged.

Yep I did, I clipped my Sim from my galaxy note/added new apn (same one I used for the note)/ took a few secs but worked just like that

Did you enter your APN? Or it might be a bad sim card

I was not getting data at all after I got a new micro Sim for my n4. I waited a few hours to let things kick in, but nope.
So I went into setting and turn off and on "data enable", and ON then OFF for "use 2g only" "data roaming"
Then finally enable and disable airplane mode. I think I did it twice and it finally work. I did not mess with the APN.
Basically, I was just trying to refresh it to let it search for data. This isn't a solution, but worth a try.

N4 on AT&T

I have an LTE data plan and use an LTE APN and I find that some times my data will not work. I put the phone to sleep and then back on and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Everything is always fine on WiFi. Anyone else on AT&T find they have issues like this?

Do some searching. I don't have ATT but think I read once someone had luck reverting to the non-LTE APN with fine speeds. Just repeating what I read, so take it for what it's worth.
You will need to switch your LTE data to HSPA plan.
Change APN to phone instead of pta. Leave everything else the same. I personally create a new APN, name it 4g or whatever you want, set APN to phone and that's all. Works very well for me. I am on a hspa+ plan now but this helped when I was still on my lte plan. This should work for you.

That's not true I use my AT&T PTA APN and it works perfect for me. I can use the pta(lte), hspa+, or Cingular.WAP and all 3 work great

LTE APN works fine for me using PTA, however my data speed isnt that great compare to tmobile.
ive tried PTA and Phone, they both yield the same result for me.
I have an AT&T plan and SIM from my previous LTE phone. I use the preset LTE APN that came with CyanogenModand it works great.

Apn
I have an lte plan and found the Cingular apn too slow. I changed mine as follow
Note* I found it in a thread and has worked flawless with faster data speeds. I live in the bay area, California
Apn - phone
Mmsc- http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
Mms proxy- proxy.mobile.att.net
Mms port - 80
Everything else as it was

"Sometimes", meaning at times it does without intervention? When you try to access data what happens? On tmobile thr phone idles on 3G and takes time to switch up to H. Sometimes having to refresh a page or click a few times until it kicks in. Is this what you're experiencing?
Did you have to enter an apn or did it set them automatically for you?

Thank you for posting yours. I'm currently on a LTE plan coming from a S3, I went in to AT&T store and asked about having my plan changed to a 4G HSPA+ plan and they told me there is no such plan. They just have 3G and LTE for smartphones. Weird, I'm pretty sure folks have posted images of their plans... oh well, if this LTE APN works well, I'll be happy. I hate that I lose my data periodically with the Cingular APN.

Data drop

Hi all,
I'm really happy with my nexus 4 that I brought in November, but every day when i go out and i start using the 3G connection I'm having data drop.... That happens always, if I wanna check Facebook or just using Internet I have to try many times to get the data to work, I have tried stock kernel and now I'm on Franco kernel but seems that nothing works.
So are you having data drops issue? I'm thinking of sending my telephone back for warranty but I don't know if it is just me or if this is happening to all you?
Thx
I've been having the same issue. Are you on AT&T? I had them update my IMEI today and the old Cingular APN works consistently but they messed up my data plan, so I'll have to check back tomorrow when I'm back on the HSPA+ APN.

Tmobile on verizon note 3

I have a verizon note 3. I am on tmobile now. Using a jelly bean rom, I have everything working except for wi fi calling? Anyone know how to get it? or how to load a tmobile rom on the verizon note 3?
I tried loading a tmobile rom but the wifi would not connect?
Thanks,
Kevin
My first question to you would be do you have the correct APN configured for T-Mobile?

Wifi calling won't work for you even with a tmobile rom. Reason. It's tied into the tmobile service. However I've flashed a rom from every carrier and can confirm all but wifi calling works on non tmobile roms. Flash rom> flash wifi bluetooth data fix (find it on tmobile forum under international rom port) > flash kernel> flash csc files for your carrier (opitonal)

Would I be correct to assume that I would get 4g on metropcs with a sim because its basically tmobile?

Out of curiosity, have those who have used T-Mobile SIM been able to get MMS? I found all the APN settings online in multiple places. Even used the APN from my TMO Moto X and can't get MMS to work. Always gets stuck in "downloading".
I haven't tried it on a bone stock TW ROM yet. Maybe issues with messaging apps on other ROMs??
Everything else works flawlessly. Even better speeds and signal strength than VZW in my area.
Won't see sim card.
I have a Verizon note 3 and it won't see my T-Mobile sim card. No matter what the sim won't register and I get a X over the signal bars. I already tried a Verizon sim and it works perfectly so I know it's not a hardware issue. Any solutions or ideas?
do a hard reset and then after that make sure your SIM card is the correct one its clean the contacts are in the correct position and then finally it should load up
if I may ask did you activate the phone when you first turn it on if not you're able to bypass the activation while using a Verizon dummy SIM card or no sim
once you load up your tmobile sim card in the top left notification area you should see where it says unknown sender is inserted
once you see this message you should be able to call anyone you'd like

Hey Kevin,
How about we trade phones an call it a day lol, i'm looking for a Verizon Note 3 since my company phone is Verizon (iphone5) - anyways my personal phone is a Note 3 for T-Mobile and was unlocked by receiving the password from T-Mobile (sim unlock) but still can't use it on Verizon. Msg me if interested please.
Thanks,
Daniel
So verizon note 3, can i use it internationally?
with the note 2 i rooted, flashed beans rom, then used hiAPN when I went overseas.
Note 3, much more difficult now?
Thanks~
You also have to change the Internet provider setting under network and select tmobile. There's a video about it on YouTube.

Anyone have working data on Straight Talk (T-Mobile) this morning?

I woke up this morning to my phone saying I need to sign into the network HOME. The phone shows 3G/H but cant connect to Google's services, apps cant get to data and when I try to go anywhere in the browser it redirects me to a T-Mobile web page saying I dont have a working data plan and to sign up for a data plan. I'm in Atlanta, GA.
APN is :
straight talk
wap.tracfone
8080
http://mms.tracfone.com
mcc = 310
mnc = 260
I doubt its going to be fixed on here but I am wondering if its global or if I should keep harping on them because its specific to my SIM.
You need to set your APN to T-Mobile settings. I'll post my settings.

I had the exact same issue a few days ago with net10. Support was not helpful. Finally purchased a new tmobile sim, and did the transfer existing service to new sim via the website. Had data back within a few minutes.

I use Platinum Tel which also borrows its service from T-mobile and I havent had data working for 2 days. I turn it on but nothing happens. I've asked them about it and I checked two different phones. I dont know whatsup.
I checked the APN settings and they were ok.
My APN settings never changed and they were never those settings. Let me reiterate, I am on STRAIGHT TALK and not T-Mobile directly.
Then have had me trying a dozen ones and nothing.
I'm having the same issue, and so are people on Facebook and the ST forums. Support is useless, but I finally got escalated high enough to make them put in a detailed ticket about the issue.
It's not just you, it's a lot of people, so I'm hoping it'll be fixed soonish.
Still broken, this is two days out now :/ If anyone has this fixed for themselves somehow, please post.

I had to buy a new sim card and transfer the service.
They sent me an AT&T SIM.
