Just manually enter the following in apn settings
Name: anything /Docomo
Apn: TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET
Apn type: internet
Rest leave it as is
After that turn on the apn but don't press back key,instead to go back from settings use home key.
Restart phone n you should have internet ;-)

Your welcome
it always does

Being a Europe firmware, the APN list might not be there for Asia. I had the same problem and had to manually configure the apn. It worked.
Not a big deal as long as you know the access point details for your subscriber.

Any way to make it automatic in a firmware/rom of outside like europian ?

Data not working on Lenovo A820e

Hi,
I have Lenovo A820e which is CDMA + GSM phone.
I am unable to switch on data either on CDMA or on GSM. However, the phone is able to use wifi.
I have saved the new APNs for Relaince CDMA and Idea GSM. But to me, it seems that China Telecom is preventing data connection other than its own.
How can I solve this problem ?

Plz. help.

A820e
Hi, I have also an A820e. Got to the same point. I've installed a ROM with GApps and got everything working except I can't get 3G data, only GPRS.
I think it's ROM related.
Have you been able to find a solution?
It seems that Lenovo A820e doesn't have the 2100 band which is required for 3G communication in Europe.
The way I was able to activate data in the ROM that has the google services is by introducing the following code in the dialer:
*#*#4763#*#*
After this a message telling me that the data has been started appeared and I was able to control.
Also before this I made a change in system/build.prop
to default the network to gsm. I've added:
ro.telephony.default_network=1
(Should be rooted to have access to this. I've used Root Browser)
Hope this helps.

Which ROM are you using ? Can you give me the link ?

Help required verizon samsung s5 - activate hidden codes

Hello
I am using verizon sansung s5 900v on a network other than verizon. I wanted to know whether i can activate the hidden codes without rooting my set. Further is it possible to use other network 4g on this set. I have heard that i can only use other network 4g if i can enable hidden codes. I dont want to root my device. Any help would be highly appreciated

I may be wrong, but im pretty sure enabling them requires root. So to answer yout question, no you cannot without rooting.

I don't think you need hidden codes just to use another network. You just need to input the correct APN for mobile data. Now, if the codes provide functionality to recharge on that network, etc, then you won't be able to. You can simply root and change the appropriate setting and unroot and it will stick, since the setting is in the EFS filesystem of the phone.
You only need to do step 2 from the OP here after rooting on the S5: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303905
FWIW, I was recently in Puerto Rico and was able to buy and use a SIM card with 4G data just fine on my Verizon Galaxy S5 after inputting the correct APN information and selecting GSM/UMTS as the network or Global instead of LTE/CDMA. Verizon's handsets are usually unlocked by default.
If you have the latest software update, band 4 should already be enabled, barring there is some sort of SIM check to determine if there is a VZW sim card installed, but I doubt it.

LTE On Oreo After Root?

Ok so I use @jrkruse guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616 to root my SM-G935P on Oreo and it works great but I cannot get LTE working, Now when I rooted my phone on Android N with @godpowerrr tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-s7-edge/how-to/sm-g935p-spr-root-nougat-7-0-data-t3568780 and do the build.prop tweaks I get LTE working fine. I have tried to add the same build.prop lines to my rooted oreo phone with no success would anyone happen to know where to find the settings in the build.prop from android N in android oreo?

No its locked for sprint network.

LTE on Oreo
Try this. Go into your phone dialer and enter this secret code:
##3282# (puts you in programming mode)
Click edit.
For the MSL code, put "000000" and press OK.
On the main screen, go to MORE.
Then click HDR/1x Selection.
On this screen, select Global then press OK.
The phone will restart and should enable LTE.
Hope this helps.

If Global doesn't work, go thru the process again and try the next 2 settings.

Unfortunately I have tried that and it does not work for me.

@DirtyPISTOLA This is a step you might of missed and has been throughout my thread. (Apn settings need to be applied after eng boot is registered) I implemented these settings through a .bat file in device system/etc folder, but doesn't work for all. So if you apply the eng boot through ODIN...and upon reset... Edit APN settings through mobile networks, being;
Name: APN2 LTE Internet
APN: n.ispsn
MMSC:http://mms.sprintpcs.com
Multimedia message proxy:68.28.31.7
Multimedia message port:80
MCC: 310
MNC: 120
APN type:default,supl,mms,dun,fota
APN Protocol:IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol:IPv4/IPv6
Bearer:LTE
You should be able to run SuperSU .bat file and hopefully that'll fix it. If not it's a firmware issue.
I'm not sure if this works for oreo because I no longer have this device, but these are settings needed for LTE. Like I said idk if Nougat's LTE is different from Oreo's LTE.
Build.prop entries:
ro.characterisitics=Sprint
ro.telephony.default_network=10
ro.cdma.default_numeric=310120
ro.cdma.default_alpha=Sprint
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Sprint
If this doesn't work try SM-G935U firmware with exact settings and steps, but change MNC: to 000.

Awesome thanks for the reply, I just upgraded to a new update that wont let me downgrade because of security policy updates as soon as SamMobile posts the firmware so I can restore if something goes wrong I'll give this a try. Thanks again.

Glad I finally found this thread, which firmware should I be on if I want to root this thing? Thinking of flashing Boot Loader 6 though again not sure.

Hey hey, I need to dig up this ghost here, cause I rooted a Sprint S7 Edge and put a verizon SIM in it, I don't have an active sprint SIM so I can't test it out, but the verizon SIM isn't getting any LTE, it just shows roaming, and no MMS messages can be downloaded. I may or may not have messed with some settings.
So, I can't edit the APN settings it's locked out. How can I either a. unlock the APN settings, or b. get it to recognize LTE networks without doing that. I've tried so many different things I've found on the forums, like nova launcher menu and going into the IOTHidden stuff to get into LTEfunctionality and that's not even there on the phone.
We're running OREO, but I just don't know what the deal is. Any ideas?

Even with the inactive sprint SIM I am given options for APN settings, I can't edit or add any, but I do have options, whereas with the Verizon card it's all frozen out

[GUIDE] HTC Desire 626s Sprint - Sim Unlocking for GSM / LTE Band Unlocking

[GUIDE] HTC Desire 626s Sprint - Sim Unlocking for GSM / LTE Band Unlocking
I successfully sim unlocked | unlocked LTE/GSM bands on the HTC Desire 626s Sprint variant using info from guides by @be free and @dr.faramroze. A big thanks to these fellas! You won't know it is unlocked until you put an active GSM Sim Card in. When trying a non active GSM sim it doesn't register correctly. I am unsure of why this occurs right now. When i get more time for this handset I will figure it out. I would recommend flashing the Unbranded MM 6.0 Stock Debloated Rom before doing these steps. It's much better and lacks all the extra garbage not needed. If you want to here is the download link - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZaQMcUMoGoKuZ781AJIKOrjubpx6frpK/view?usp=sharing

You're now SIM UNLOCKED! -
Try your active GSM SimCard now. I'm testing with ATT getting HSPA+ and loving my horrible 3G data speeds! But hey what can you expect. =]
Now to enable LTE Bands if you must (Not everyone will be supported). This mod enables obtaining LTE - bands 2,3,5,13,17,25,26 after making changes to NV Item values. Band 5 is reported to be excellent with great coverage. Making these changes will not damage your Modem / IMEI / Hardware.
Steps:
(To be continued)

can you show how to enable band ?
