Unable to talk and text but data works - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, after updating the radio I've been unable to talk and text with my phone. I have full signal bars and also am able to use the internet. I've tried a bunch of different roms but can't figure out why this is happening. Please help! <3

If you haven't already, just flash the previous radio.
As for actual help...

I have tried that , still the same thing... Does it make a difference since i'm on Simple Mobile?

Well you could talk and text before on Simple Mobile, right?

Yes, I've always been able to. Can't figure out what is going on... Is there a way to get back to everything stock?

Using something other than T-Mobile is gonna have glitches. Have you tried getting a new sim card or trying someone's T-Mobile sim card?

Appears to be a SIM card problem! Thanks!

Rogers Name Display Work Around

Hi all after testing for about a day i have found a way to get rogers name display to work on the tilt 2. Just had done a lot a searching and combined 2 cabs to get this working.
I have tested this only on the Energy rom and nothing else.
1st you need to install: rilphone for rogers CNAP.cab
then soft reset
2nd you need to install: NRGZ28 Tachi Dialer Disabler.cab
Yes i know you are all saying disabler for tachi but so far this is the only way it will work until someone can implement the settings for stock wm dialer to tachi.
Please Stick this
I tried it on my tilt2 with the cell pro rom it is making my phone run hot and draining the battery fast 10% in about 10 minutes. But it is also making my phone run alot smoother. Uninstalled with no luck still running hot and draining the battery fast. also "attention required" message flashes when I reboot. Time for a hard reset.

yes i agree i dont think that would be a problem with the rilphone.dll sounds like the phone is using either the data or phone itself all the time i would say try a hard reset and try this again. if it does the same thing again try a different rom. Im using energy rom i have always had good luck with his roms.
Thank you for those great cabs. Will be going back to canada in 2 weeks and will give it a try and report back.
I am using Mighty Mike's rom, do you think it will work?
regular phones with rogers/Fido don't need data. Using this cab, will I have to use data?

pretty sure it will work with any rom just try the rilphone.dll first and if it still don't work then install tachi dis-abler and should work. This will only work on GSM models not cdma/gsm so make sure yours is just gsm. And as for data the answer is no it doesn't use any data at all just like a regular rogers/Fido phone.
Thanks Hiwired.
Is there a way to make it work on CDMA
I linked this thread on ppcgeeks, maybe someone could collaborate with your work to see if they can make it work for us WCDMA users. I hope you don't mind.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=1851465#post1851465
nope i dont mind at all. and as it sits so far right now it will only work on gsm rogers. if you are looking for cdma then right now might look at program called truecallerid but you have to have 3g on in order for you to see it when the call comes in. it does use data as well to. im switchin carriers this week goin to bell so im going to try to mess with this on thier cdma/gsm 3g network

Thought WTH, let me try it on my phone CDMA. didn't work
I wish there's a work around for CDMA because I am using it on FIDO
ya as it sits right now bell only has caller number display BUT since they went with the 3g gsm network we might see something come out soon for it they have the proper network now just need the coding
A little off topic hiwiredjuice , but what radio are you using with this fix and the energy rom? I'm on the rogers network and I want to find an optimal radio to use. I am using Energy Rom, and i plan on using this fix aswell.

[Q] NO Internet, no MMS- Talk and text work sorta... Need A lil Help!!!!

FIrst off I dont get any reception from my Dinc in the house, the donor I do. When out and about my reception spikes to full bars on the Dinc but I still get no internet and cannot send pic mail. Talk and text work fine. I have changed my prl several times. (30 or more to be exact) I have correctly wrote my ha and aaa passwords. used the m. ip setting from the donor. ppp i used the ones from donor and setups that have worked for others. Im lost!!! When i connect to the internet it says no internet connection. What am I missing. I am still on the stock DInc rom, should i flash to cm7 or another rom? Any suggestions would help. Im also in the md/dc/va area, so if anyone is local, what prl are you using? What are your ppp setting?
Have you tried doing a *228 option 1? That should program everything you need to get net access.

*228 May work for Vz customers, but my wifes phone and mine get a error message when I dial *228. Im startin to think i have a bum phone. I got my wifes phone setup today, she has reception using the same exact setup as mine including the prl.... So i may have to get rid of this one and get a different phone. :-/

No 3G data on my new SGS3

So I got a new SGS3 and it works fine, except when I am in 3G. When I am in 3G I can receive and place calls but no data. Att support was no help, so I figured I would check here. As far as I can tell it is either a APN, Gateway, or Account settings issue (the later being something I can not do anything about). I say this because my n1 gets signal fine here, and it seems to run fine, so long as it is 4g.
Any ideas? Also, does the SGS3 have EDGE support?

Bump: And also I tried to set an old APN but that didn't help.
Have you rooted and flashed it or are you stock? If you are just stock...there is nothing this forum can do to help really.

I have not rooted or anything, I have tried some APNs but I was hoping other people might help me out with something else to try. I don't really buy the whole " if you are stock... there is nothing that can be done" What if I was trying to get help with a stock developer build of my n1 (which I have previously) or are you asserting that without rooting I will not be able to fiddle with the modem settings?
What I'm saying is the phone comes ready out of the box. Unless you have changed something then it is a network problem. You will have to take it up with AT&T.
U can only do so much stock....and thats not alot! Root and use stock rom so u will have root access to see whats what...and to be able to control what u do or dont want ur data to do

Thank you guys for trying to help but I know all this. I am just in the period of time I can take it back and I don't want to risk that by bricking it while monkeying around.
I (Maybe) have isolated the problem, they said that I was set up for LTE and there are some issues with proper propagation of properties. Anyway problem "May" only effect people on ATT with Samsung S3s bought at BestBuy locations and the upgrade includes unlimited data. Still working will update tonight....
BUMP!

[Q] need help with evo 4g flashed to verizone pre pay

i tried looking for a thread but couldnt find one. heres my situation,
i sent in a phone to flashed phones .net. they took almost a month to get it back to me
i had it flashed to verizon prepay $50 mo . when i finally got it back the messages were not working right
, i found a video on utube and was able to fix the sending and receiving text and pix. so now the only issue i have is that the 3g
is really slow. slower than sprint . i ve tried it in different areas and nothing changes .
so waht im trying to do is to re flash my self i really dont want to send the phone back to flash phones my experience has been really bad
so if anyone can help thanks in advance
so its a sprint 4g
on verizon prepay
phone calls work fine
i fixed msg
3g is really slow(cant watch youtube videos)
Well my first suggestion is to change prls. If your on a sense ROM it is usually an easy process and aosp ROMs you have to have a PC with qpst setup to change prls. Pm me and I can help you out with prls and if needed reflashing. Although I really doubt reflashing will be required.
Edit: also just remembered not all ROMs will the correct network. You may be using 1x and still see 3g on the status bar.

[Q] Help with Verizon SCH-I535 Phone to use on T-mobile

Hey everyone and thanks for taking the time to read this,
So the story goes as so: After doing some research couple months ago about the capability of the Verizon Galaxy S3 to work on T-mobile, i purchased it, and got it to successfully work on T-mobile(texts, calls, wi-fi). The problem is, i just recently upgraded to include a data plan, and i cannot access the internet, despite taking my phone to my cell phone dealer and contacting T-mobile.T-mobile even sent me a guide to do a mastery reset to factory in hopes to solve this problem, only to tell me afterwards that the phone version SCH-I535 is a "verizon locked-software" and i won't be able to set up an APN to work on the T-mobile network. This was all due to the fact that i was not able to set up a APN for T-mobile, and every time i tried to access it through setting, it brought me to a blank black page with the only option of "Reset to Default". After reading other forums and talking with some people, many have suggested i take this issue to XDA to find a solution.
So, here i am.....Does anyone know if it is possible for me to break/root/ or whatever it is called so i can successfully access the t-mobile network on my phone? Preferably an easier guide since i am sort of a newbie at this sort of stuff.
Thanks again for reading.
Before your Contract change, you were able to receive and make calls successfully with T-Mo Sim right ? Even now you can make calls too correct ? The reason I am asking this is to be able to check if you are really unlocked off of VZW. If you are not unlocked, then that would be the first step.
You are right, the APNs do drive Data Connection. If the stock firmware does not allow you to change APNs then you will have to root. Please post a screen of your Settings > About phone that shows your Rom Version, Baseband and Kernel.

Hey Perseus, thanks a lot for taking the time to reply. I bought the phone in the summer off someone who had verizon. I have always had T-mobile, and considering this phone is GSM, i decided to buy it because it would probably work for T-mobile. I had the phone unlocked, and i am currently using it to make calls, texts, and even use wi-fi with no problem. The only problem at this time is that i recently added a data plan which i cannot currently use. Here is a screen shot of what you have requested.
Thanks again
First try
Settings > More > Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type.See what it is set to. Change it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA if needed. See the other option System Select as well.
Also separately try the following.
Hit ##DATA# in the Dialer. In the subsequent Menu choose EDIT > OTHERS > LTE APN
If all fails, please Root the phone and then try. The way you go about is
1. Flash a Custom Recovery via Odin. Make sure the version of Custom recovery is for your model D2VZW not D2TMO.
2. Flash a SuperSU zip file via Recovery and then hit fix permissions in the recovery.
Try the APN Settings after that. IF you can actually access them, then set them according to this link.
If all the above fails, I'd suggest a custom Rom for d2VZW.
You will never get 4g trust me I had one... you will just get the E

Ok, so i tried to changed it to LTE and i got no service at all, so i switched it back to Global. I also tried the dialer thing several times, and got the " connection problem or invalid MMI code"
So i guess i am going to have to root the phone? Does anyone know a good video tutorial or written tutorial on how to safely do this? Also, what exactly is rooting?

You have to enable the mmi codes to use them. Anyway as stated above your reply you will never get 3g or 4g just edge (seen it personally) which is pretty darn slow.. Not worth it if you ask me and be paying for data.. If you still want to root it and keep trying to add sons check the Verizon forums.. They could probably help you a lot more than on this side of the forums

Guys, he is not getting ANY data signal at all. His problem isn't getting the specific icon but being not able to change APNs.
@HackThisThing, you are better off following up on Verizon Device forum. That forum does have a video tutorial for Rooting. Here's forum link.
I don't think you will be able to change APNs without rooting. I checked with a buddy of mine who has the same device as you.
Here's a good answer to What is Rooting ?
Even if you CAN fix it, why bother if you can only get 2G? I'd sell it or trade it for a phone that's more compatible with T-Mobile 's network instead of paying for data and only getting dial-up speeds. I get that solving problems is fun, but OP do you want to live with only 2G?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
I don't agree with that assessment. Just like the T999L phone, this device will work on LTE Bands just fine. OP just needs to wait for LTE to be rolled out in their area. There's a coverage map and roll out schedule on T-Mo website and the T-Mo News blog.
It's worth a look, but could still leave them with patchy coverage. If it's going to be a while, why wait when it's not hard to just trade the phone? I guess I don't see a reason why hold out on getting a Verizon phone to work when you could just get one that works now with little to no monetary loss. It's just a Verizon S3, not really something worth "waiting" for when they could get the same thing but more functional on their network of choice.
They made an honest mistake and waiting might give them "good enough" service - but other than that they're stuck with dial up speed only and risk bricking a phone they could just trade or sell now.
Maybe I'm just impatient and risk averse.

OP has already purchased this VZW version.

I have the same problem....
How to get any type of data...?
