All, I am using my carrier unlocked Sprint S4 in France on Lebara.fr. Though I have my APN setup correctly (I've confirmed the APN works on a Photon 4g with the same sim), I am unable to use data. Phone and SMS work fine. I am receiving the following error when the phone tries to register with the carrier: "Unable to establish a wireless data connection LTE: ESM -29 EMM -x". . Per some lookups online this appears to mean: "#29: user authentication failed", but since I know this APN works on another android phone I'm not sure what it means for me.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!
I don't believe you will be able to use LTE in France. I thought the Sprint version of the S4 didn't support the LTE frequencies used in Europe. You should be able to use 3g.

Thanks, unfortunately I'm not trying to use LTE. Even 2g data (GPRS) doesn't seem to register correctly.
hi. did you solve this issue? Im having the same

Hi guys,
I just bought this phone, unlocked it and inserted my sim everything was fine until... I noticed the "edge" icon.
It wont connect to the Telcel 3G network, I know that this phone is for AT&T network but Telcel uses the same frequencies (UMTS 850/1900), I tried "forcing" it to WCDMA only but it wont find any Telcel network.
What can I do? Does anyone have experience with this kind of problems?

Aria comes with APNS setup for AT&T data only. It's a simple fix - you can manually enter the info under wireless settings to add access point data for your carrier or you can just root and flash CM6, with has a huge - enormous default APNS database.
Here's a link to how the same issue was solved on the Nexus One.

Thank you! I'll try this right now!
-------EDIT-----------
Ok I entered the APN info, restarted the phone and Edge Icon is still there, with the "settings" on *#*#4636#*#* I changed to "WCDMA only" and the phone cant find a telcel network, only movistar, What is the problem? Maybe there isnt a Telcel 3g network near my phone? I used to have an iPhone 3G and I never had a problem with 3G Any thoughts?

This works perfectly.
My wife's Aria went into some factory reset and lost 3g, now it's back thanks to this.
Hi all,
I'm struggling to get data connection over the 3G network, even though I've got a data plan and the settings seem to be on point.
I'm based in Dubai and I've got a Middle East tab (garbage as the firmware excludes the Android Market), so I've flashed a recent Euro firmware (JIP was the build if I recall)
When I go into network settings to choose 2G/3G/Auto, it shows me GSM and WCDMA as the choices. I'm pretty sure before the flash, it showed GSM and WCDMA. Is WCDMA the same as HSDPA?
The problem could be with the carrier, but I'm troubleshooting at the moment and this WCDMA is a bit confusing.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Have you checked your APN settings? Chances are that the Euro firmware doesn't have the APNs "pre-installed" for your carrier(s). The good news is that you can add them in manually if this is the case.
Regards,
Dave

If your display shows a 3G or H type signal, then your problem is a bad APN setting.
WCDMA is 3G and H on your display, if you have that then you're in good shape.
Search the net or the carriers website for the the correct setting, then create a new APN and data will instantly start to flow.
It was missing the apn setting. Justed typed it in manually and Im hooked up. Although i was bamboozled for a little while as the H didnt apear until i had turned off the wifi.
Thanks for all ur help guys.

It depends on many things. Maybe you should have enabled "Only 2G" on Settings>More>Mobile Network. Also, it could be that there is no good coverage where you live, so is always changing to 2G.

Hello,
I upgraded my plan to one which includes LTE data transfer. When I turn on mobile data connection (with data roaming allowed) phone connects only to 2G EDGE network. There is no way to connect with 3G/HSPDA/LTE despite good signal and proper settings (preffered network type, apns etc). I've tried:
- few different modems/radios: XXUHOB7, XXUHOB8, XXUGNG8,
- few roms: stock 4.4.2 I9505XXUGNG8_I9505YXZGNH2_XEO, CyanogenMod 12, CyanogenMod 11, I9505_-_Official_Google_Edition_5.0.0_by_Jamal2367_Stable-R2.1 and JFLTE-GPE-20150315
With no luck. I didn't used data connection a lot before so I can't say when the problem started to occuring. I tested my SIM card on different phone and LTE connection works... I attached screenshot from "Advanced Signal Status"
Do you have any ideas how to solve this issue?
Thanks!
same error here!
any solution??

It really depends on what bands your carrier is using. For example, in romania, we have a carrier (digi mobil) that has 4g signal only on the tdd 38 2600mhz band, a band that our phone (i9505), doesn't support.
You should look into your carrier bands, get info on what bands are they currently using and then see if they coincide with the bands that your phone supports. What variant do you have and on what carrier are you on?
Is your phone showing the correct imei?

How do i know if my imei is "correct"? I checked my imei and i inserted it in a site and i found the specifications of my phone as they should be, but my 3g and 4g are completely dead.
Does the imei in the phone match the imei on the label under the battery?
Hi Guys..
I unlocked sim card on my SPH-L720 but it won't connect to any network except to 2G network. I live in Venezuela and It's supposed to get 3G signal with my carrier.. but only network I can use is 2G..
Is there any chance to force 3G connection trought service mode??
Did you set/add your APN manually? That usually has fixed the problem for me.
