Yes, I've done that. I used htccode.com to get it unlocked.

Hi,
I unlocked my Arc and then set it up to run on Telus in Canada. I have everything working now including MMS.
I used this site for the unlock
www cellunlocker net
I cost me $7.50 CDN
p.s. I got an unlock code back within 2 hours

Thanks guys will give it a go many thanks.

can you give the apn setting that works for the arc on telus?? I seem to have to keep switching mine

3grepairs is 5.50. quick service quick code. a time or two he couldnt give me code for given device. i always buy two at once. even though one was successful he always refunded all the money for both. for that reason i say go with him he's pretty good. [email protected] high recommend. he's in north van or some ****. check your arc be sure you haz tries left. *#*#7378423#*#* and check simlock. top entry if it says zero and big X your device hardlocked. talk to alejandrissimo or Blagus here, if you haz locked bootloader AND your device is hardlocked thats only solution. under $25 nothin to cry about in that situation.
edit: oh i think manufacture method of unlock is free. but u can only do that if you haz fastboot enabled. unlocked bootloader, as far as i know anyway. just trying to help. to gather all the info i just typed out i had to read many many posts. manufacture method get sim unlock code from se site i got one of those before i realized i was hardlocked and locked bootloader. i am neither now.

Lost 3g after using gingerbreak

I am freaking out. I lost my 3g after rooting my device with the gingebreak program.
I used the method provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045204
Since then I only get Edge and not 3g/hsdpa like I got before.
I am using the sony lt15a (rogers version). I think it might have affected my radio somehow. does anyone know how I can get 3g back?
I would really appreciate some help.

I did a hard reset and it didn't work but then I flashed it with the stock 2.3.3 US rom and now everything seems to work fine. I am not sure as to why I had a problem to begin with, I didn't know that rooting a device can actually affect the 3g radio.
anyways for anyone who has a similar problem, just flash it with the stock US 2.3.3. rom and you should be fine again.

All you need to do is edit your Arc's APN I use Gingerbreak too but it didnt touch any of my settings. You might wanna check your APN coz it MMS or other things that uses data might not work.

It wasn't the apn. nothing changed in there and I was using with ATT.
the rooting actually affected the gsm radio and got rid of my 3g. I am not sure why but that is what it did.
The only way I could fix it is by flashing it with the stock US rom.

tryd getting 3g setting from provider back, this happened to me and this worked :
- setting
- Sony ericsson
- download settings

ATT SIII rooted and unlocked with LiquidSmooth not able to connect to T Mobile.....

Hi All
Rooted, have done the unlocking trick to unlock my AT T SIII and then installed LiquidSmooth Rom.
However, it's unable to connect to the T Mobile network on my tmo sim? The T-mobile account is good as it works perfectly on my unlocked Note as well as another SIII that I have on Verizon.....
Any suggestions on what I can do next?
Thanks

You'll need to check to make sure you APN matches the tmo network. Liquid devs for att so the APN in his ROM is for att. You simply have to edit it for tmo. Google "TMobile APN Settings" or search around xda and you'll see how and what to change.

Yep, I've tried alot of other roms and have tried the below APN but that causes the Searching for Network screen to perpetually search and won't even bring up T-Mo and AT & T network options for me to choose from.
And yes, the default was already T Mobile on the APN when I first posted this.
The official error message was: "Can't connect to this network right now. Try again later." when I tried to click on T-Mobile in the Available Networks screen.

If its happening on stock, you may have lost your IMEI, check Settings > About > Status.
Report back and let us know.

Nope, IMEI still there. Also when I have the T - Mobile sim in there, it actually even shows my phone # in Status.

mm6 doesn't show in custom roms(aosp roms) but only touchwiz
if you get that, then chance that you get it fix, is really hard
i had once like that and regardless of what i did (restore imei, re-unlock, change value....) i tried all methods, it didn't work and i had to bring it in for warranty.
if you're not on stock, try go back to stock and see if you get it, "mm6 phone not allowed" message usually show on top in lockscreen
hope i'm wrong, or else the only option is warranty.
Definition of MM6 Phone not allowed
a) the handset was bought locked to a particular network (the network sells the handset at a subsidised price, but gets the money back by tying you into staying with them for 12, 18 or 24 months, paying a fee each month), and you've put in a SIM belonging to another network... in which case, you'll need to (pay to) get it unlocked (since you're unlocked, this shouldn't bother you)
or
b) the handset has been reported lost or stolen, and has been blacklisted in the EIR (Equipment Identity Register) of the network whose SIM you've put in the handset
or
c) the handset is unable to register on the network (e.g. you've been (accidentally) barred or disconnected, or there's a network issue that is preventing you from registering).

Your fix isn't that hard. You dont have to manually enter most roms apns because tmobile builds can sucsesfully flash on att builds with apns built it. Next time just flash tmobile because it is the same hardware almost and Is flashable without porting to att or that nonsense for what you have to do for theinternational variant

So you are saying to Flash a T Mobile rom ????
I was under the impression that we should ALWAYS ONLY flash roms that are specific to our devices (in this case, the SIII is AT &T) ?

It's probably your APN settings.

Hey thanks for your fast reply. I put in the info you provided,double checked, rebooted with no luck... however I did notice that the Cellular network type changed from unknown to HSPA if that helps, once again the help is much appreciated.

Any suggestions anyone? Would flashing a stock ruu or something along those lines enable me to start using data ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe. The most recent AT&T RUU is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/general/htc-one-m8-ruu-m8ul-4-4-3-t2860423
Did you buy the phone new or used? Did you buy the phone rooted and s-off? Or did you do it yourself?
What hboot and baseband number?

Hey I appreciate the response, sorry for getting back to you so late.. I purchased the phone through a friend who had done nothing with it. I rooted and got it s-off myself via a fantastic walkthrough here on XDA. I then put (sorry I can't link the rom) SkyDragon Google Play Edition Version 4.2.1 on it and then activated it.
hboot: 3.19.0.0000
baseband: 1.21.213311491.A04G_20.51A.4198.01L_F
Like I said it is working fine as far as texts and calls, but I have no data.
-Thanks again for your time.

Interesting, I don't see a reason why data isn't working. Try to switch back to a Sense ROM, Android 4.4.4 (software 3.x) based, and see if there is any change.
What firmware did you use to update hboot/radio (I don't know the radio numbers off hand) is it WWE or something else (US Dev Edition, etc.)?

My LG G3 only connects to Edge network

Hello guys.
After a couple of days reading on the internet without success I decided to share my problem here.
I bought a LG g3 D850 32 gb on eBay, once I received it I was so happy enjoying the 4g LTE network, the speed was amazing.
Regrettably, one day all this happiness disappeared, now I only have Edge connection, I don't have 3g, hsdpa or 4g, I only get the awful Edge.
I have tried using my sim card on other phone and I get 3g and hsdpa (that phone does not have 4g) so the problem is on the G3.
I have to say that I have the phone with the stock rom and the only change I've done was to root it with kingroot and deleted (disable) some at&t apps. I thought this was the problem so I restored to factory defaults but the problem did not disappear.
I was thinking in to return the phone but I am in Chile so is a little hard.
I will be grateful if some one could help me with this issue.
I will be waiting for your comments
Thanks on advance

Hi Nick,
This is the Software info:
Android Version: 5.0.1
Baseband Version: MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13-00058-M8974AAAAANPZM-1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Build Number: LRX21Y
Software Version: D85021r
Security Software Version: MDF v1.1 Release 3
I do not understand what the base network is. Is my cellullar provider?
The APN settings are OK. I didn't change anything.
I had all the connections and suddenly I lost 3 and 4 g and only get Edge.
I didn't change anything. I rooted the phone with KingRoot but I am not sure if the problem started in that moment.
I have made the Factory Data Reset a couple of times and the problem continues.
My Sim Card works fine in other cell phone.
Please Help!!!!

Yes, your cellular provider. What's your cellular provider and what's your APN? Is your sim from AT&T, a foreign provider or from a Chilean network? Does the APN match the SIM provider's APN?
I'm thinking that it's either an APN problem or a band switching problem (since you disabled some AT&T apps) or you just ran through your allotment of 4G data under your contract.
If you've tried your SIM very recently in a friend's phone and it works just fine, then it's probably not a data allotment problem.

I am using a chilean provider with the correct APN, the same I used from the first day when 4g were working fine and the same.
Yesterday I tried mi sim card in other cellphone and I got 4g without problem. I checked the apn and they was the same.
Now I tried with tho different ROMs, I changed the kernel and the modem and I'm still get only EDGE :crying::crying:
I do not know what to do. I think the cellphone is bad

I'm guessing that you may have disabled something when you were deleting the AT&T bloatware. You've got a D850, right?
As @trickie69r has mentioned in a previous thread, try downloading your KDZ direcly from LG's Servers using: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b...XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
(Replace XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with your own IMEI, which can be found by dialing *#06* in Dialer)
Take a screenshot of your About Phone > Software Info tab before and after and see if anything changes.
Buena suerte!
