Internet issues after update to Pie - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers

Hey, I've updated to Pie since 2 months and the data connection on the phone is horrible. Apps will randomly report no network or no connection. Is there a way I can reinstall the radio?
The phone is usable and everything else works but the bad data connection and it dropping out is really annoying.

I noticed a few settings were a little off such as IPV4/IPV6 being selected instead of just IPV4. I created a new apn with the correct settings from the article you linked. I will give it a few days and report back. Thank you for your help!:good:

Speak with T-Mobile. MMS issues regularly relate to the service provider. You should ask them to remove then re-add your MMS capabilities on their servers and to be safer you should create your APN settings based on the info on their website.
What build? Cyanogenmod builds or modified sense builds (like cmys) include the files needed for mms to work correctly on tmous.. they've been working great for me don't even have to enter the apn.

So your location was taking you to the wrong country? I had that issue on an iPhone 3, hence I only ever had an iPhone for a week before returning to HTC products.
The English settings won't affect your location. Google maps will first ascertain where your location is based on WiFi and then GPS. WiFi will inherently be quicker because it doesn't need a lock. I would suggest turning WiFi off for now, are you using a proxy or Tor network direct through your router? That would suggest why it thinks you're in another country. If it's your GPS then that is an entirely different issue and you will want to read this thread:

New to Focus on Rogers

Hello All,
I just got a AT & T "unlocked" samsung focus. I plan to use it on rogers and been reading the forms for a few days as see their may be issues.
Can i just put in my SIM card and hope for the best? I was wondering how hard is it to set up the APN settings and MMS settings on the focus? IF i try to update my Focus to Mango will it relock it self?
Is their anything i should know about using an unlocked AT & T phone on the rogers network?
Thanks and sorry for all the questions.

Once SIM unlocked, the phone does not re-lock if you update/flash/downgrade/upgrade the rom or use another SIM or hard reset the phone.
Secondly, you will need the "Network Profile" app from Samsung to switch the network profile from AT&T to Rogers. You'll find it in Marketplace, in Apps (not Samsung Zone).

Thank you,
When i search the marketplace ( w ww.windowsphone.com/en-CA/marketplace) for Network Profile i do not seem to find anything. Should i be searching it on the phone and not on the internet?

On the phone, yes. Connect through wi-fi if you don't have a data plan (faster anyway). In Zune you won't find it through search.
Just downloaded the app and i only see AT & T and no choice to change it.
any help?
Thanks

You might be better off to flash it with the Rogers ROM if you plan on keeping it for a while. Trust me you'll have less issues.

That's also another solution, but flashing is time consuming and a bit radical. But if you're at the very beginning of your journey, it's definitely something to consider.

This with a Rogers SIM? Very weird, should display current carrier and AT&T.
Can you check with a different SIM? (either Rogers and/or any other carrier than Rogers/AT&T)
Is this hard to do? Can you please send me a link to show me how? (that is how to flash it for rogers)

Yes it does.
I wonder if flashing my device to a rogers rom will fix the gmail(same error msg) issue along with the timestamp issue.

Sometimes, that doesn't get fixed for me.
Deleting and recreating the account works every time, though

You are right. Edited the old post to contain the link as well. You can get it from here. Don't forget to thank PavelX1 for the rom.
Flashing to Rogers ROM is about an hour of time. I would suggest adding any SD cards (if you are expaning memory size) after. If you already have a card there be sure to back it up if you have anything important before you flash the unit. It will erase evertyhing!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131022
It should go failry easy. I've flashed to the ROM, also to AT&T and back again about 4 or 5 times now. Very simple tool to use.
thank you! it was quite easy to do.
How long does the battery last most users? So far i am finding that i get about 6-7 hours of meduim use. It seems a bit short.
Thanks

Define medium use.
I get about 1 day with WiFi and 3G on + some usage.
3G no wifi or Bluetooth. 1 hour of emailing and playing a game for an hour or so.

[Q] [Issue] [SMS] [CM10.2] SMS fails to send

I have a Nexus 4 running Cyanogen 10.2-20131214 on AT&T and as of yesterday I can't get any texts to send, I can receive them fine and I didn't change anything that should cause that, tried rebooting and resetting my APN and neither worked, any help would be great.
hmm... hard to say what could be the problem, especially if APN settings are correct. Try a clean install and report back.

Have you checked on the CM threads to see if anyone else is having these issues? Also when it fails to send do you still have a GSM connection or do you lose it right before it fails? Have you tried making a call right after it fails? Lastly are you using the AOSP messaging app, the CM messaging or Hangouts?

Yes use shortcut master lite to create the new profiles.
So should all users of S8+ Sprint version get the OTA, or some of us still need to wait. Cause I checked today, and it says I am on latest version of software (i.e 7)?
Yeah, but it's no good at this time. It kinda made the phone slower.

Mine are "blured" out. Can't adjust.

New Update With Few Tips & Hotspot Mod {CRL2}

Hey All,
I had to update this thread a little it was pretty terrible on wording and full details. (Sorry About That)
The current hotspot hack still works on this new update too which is now CRL2.
You still need to add dun but it will look like this example below....
Ex: default,mms,dun,xcap,supl << Credits to whoever found this out first I just applied it to here and it works I’m currently using it now for this post :fingers-crossed::good:
*In order to edit your APN you will have to download Quick Shortcut App from the Play store*
Another thing if you didn’t know Good Lock is out and working perfectly too with new clock options and custom pulldown options that you can set to your liking.
*I added screenshots to help set what I set or how my good lock looks.*
I have a T-Mobile S8+ on Sprint network, and OTA keeps failing.
Can I just ODIN T-Mobile S8+ with Sprint's RIB firmware when it comes out?
Will I lose data?

they was added by sprint in the newest update
it was not like this before the update
XCAP is a protocol which enables a user configuring his service data (e.g., modifying a call forwarding number, changing his barring services) on the Multimedia Telephony Application Server (MTAS). The XCAP flow is typically carried over the default bearer of the Internet APN.
SUPL is a technology which utilizes existing standards where available and possible, to transfer assistance data and positioning data over a User Plane bearer, such as IP, to aid network and SUPL Enabled Terminal (SET) based positioning technologies in the calculation of a SET's position

The new October Patch is nice so far....they have disabled Calling Plus but gave u the real feature
which is under connections and then voice networks and you will see VoLTE
turn it on if you want to use internet and phone at the same time.
Besides that we got AR Emojis and now super slow motion.
