Mobile Data 3G Gone (APN not Configured) - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, yesterday I reset my phone due to a LOT of Force Closures. My phone was working fine but sometime this morning I noticed that my 3G indicator on my phone is gone and when I checked my Quick Settings app it stated the the 3G Mobile Date has no "APN Configured."
What is that and could that be the reason why my clock app has my current location of Providence, RI and not McLean, VA (my current location)?
Please Help!
Thanks.

Never mind. I figured it out.

What was the solution? I've been having the same problem with an HTC Eris

[Q] Can't enable Mobile Network...help?

Hi guys,
You know how when you enable Airplane mode Bluetooth, Bluetooth settings, 4G, 4G settings, Mobile network, and Internet sharing become shaded and you are unable to turn them on?
Well, for some reason my Mobile Network option is shaded/unselectable, although I am certainly not in Airplane mode. In fact, both mobile network and internet sharing are shaded, yet M.N.'s box has a green checkmark and underneath it says, "Turning on...". Still, it remains like that without any change.
Since this issues has occured, the 3G logo in the status bar has disappeared, which leads me to think that the phone isn't enabling data connections, not that there is something wrong the MetroPCS's end.
The only thing I could think of was that a few days ago, I was playing with turning on/off 4G setting and that I turned off/on the 2G-3G toggle in the Extended controls widget; that however, only directed my to the Mobile network settings where Data Roaming, Data Roam Guard, ect. are all enabled.
What should I do? I tried being as detailed as possible, and hopefully there is a solution as I am getting really tired of no internet on my phone. Thanks for any help.
By any chance to you have an older version of switch pro installed. This caused issues with my mobile network a while back.
If so, uninstall it.

I do not have it install, but I will try uninstalling any app that I have installed in the last week; maybe you are onto the something there. I do have a couple of control/settings/toggle widgets. I'll report back.

[SOLVED] No data connection

I'm pretty new to Android, but out of curiosity I flashed CyanogenMod 6.1.3 a few days ago and all went well, but I've just noticed that I'm unable to get a 3G connection. All widgets/settings show that 3G & mobile data is turned on, but there's no indicator in the notification bar and no browsers can connect to the internet. I can still get a WiFi connection. Any ideas why this is happening, and how I can fix it?
Thanks for reading.
Check your apn settings, you may have to enter them manually

Tried that, used settings straight from the T-Mobile website.
It is definitely something to do with your APN setup, something isn't right.

Data Not working...... Help !

Been flashing the DHD for about a year now and never had a problem with it.
S-OFF ENG etc, running MDJ's 3.1.1 ROM.
Not flashed the phone for a week or so but as of this afternoon my mobile network just sits at "Turning on.."
Will not connect data.
Wireless OK. just no data.
Ive not messed, installed, uninstalled anything for a while and this morning it was working ok.
Anyone got any ideas ?
+1. Same here. Was working fine, then I noticed the data icon was missing.
Have tried different roms, radios, etc. But no joy.
Any help, gratefully received on this matter.
Just out of interest, what network are you on?
Edit. Definitely something wrong with Orange. Unable to connect to my account with the Orange app.

+1 same stock 2.2.1 with orange. No data

I have had the same problem, but had related it to a dodgy data import from MyBackupPro as it was working and then wasn't. Nothing I did would bring it back apart from a factory reset. I didn't reload the data and it's been OK so far but it could be a similar problem.
I am on stock Gingerbread.
Just flashed a new ROM, problem solved. Couldn't be bothered waiting months no doubt for orange to update to 2.3 and put all their crapware on it.

?
by saying no data you mean in 3g networks?
Yeah 3g

see if you stuck NPC data in the phone company
I’ve experienced this too when I was in some areas, it happened in place you’ve been before and used 3g?
In my country whenever I go to the beach I lose 3g network and it keeps trying to connect...
Probably you know it, but...
If you use widget to turn on/off your data, and if you changed ROM from older to Gingerbread, it seems that this doesn't work. It is partially true- widget doesn't work anymore, but you can still turn on/ off your data from upper dock -> quick settings -> cellular network data (or something similar )
Me too, and I'm running stock 2.3.3 on Vodafone UK. No icon by signal strength bars, although apparently signal strength at -75dBm.
I can force it into 2G by selecting GSM only and the icon comes back, but not so for WCDMA only.
Also noticed in Quick settings from pull down notification bar that 'Mobile Network' is always 'Turning on...' and won't toggle.
Any ideas?

[Q] 2.4 update broke 3g

I flashed 2.3.4 onto my 2.3.3 R800i and now I can no longer get 3g to work for anything other than messaging and phone calls. I've tried everything i could think of in the settings, any clue how I could fix this?
Did you put your apn settings in?

I had a problem with 3G long time ago after being abroad and using Airplane mode and/or data settings. Could not reactivate 3G for some reason and rebooting did not help but I had some on/off widget thing installed at the time and tried one of the 3G or data switches on it and it started working. Hope it helps

I spoke to a rogers agent to get the apn, thanks, wouldn't of know to do it otherwise
Right on man glad you got it worked out I went thru the same stuff when I first got my x10 it was a little frustrating but lesson learned

mine has a glitch where it switches the network it's assigned to by itself. Rogers shows up as two networks, one edge and one 3g/hspa, and I noticed if my reception is bad at a certain location it will sometimes switch to edge only, and not turn back. It's only been doing this after the update to 2.3.4
Edit/update: I figured out you can force the phone to never use edge, if you change it from wcdma preferred/gsm to only wcdma

Serious internet issues..

Hey everyone, I've really annoying Internet connectivity issues on my onex, half of the time it's connected to the mobile network showing the "H" sign on top and the rest of the time it's showing the "3G" icon.
Now my issue is that while it's on the 3g the internet just stops - while playing it disconnects, on the browser it just loading forever, and on programs it get stuck.. while on the H everything is going fine!
I am living in Israel and worked with partner and now changed to "Pelephone" which should have the fastest/best mobile network, and it made no change. I also tried according to.an advice i got here to change my phone on settings to "wcdma only" and still no change.
Please, if anyone has any.idea about this problem and a solution i would be greatful.
