[Q] Sim card settings - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi guys
Since I updated to 4.2.1 from 4.1.2(galaxy nexus yakju) , I cant see my sim settings , before there was an icon for sim settings in the menu.
can someone tell me if it needs to be enabled from somewhere or can be accessed ?
Edit:
I installed 4.1.2 back and I can see it, its sim toolkit , if someone can answer me it will be helpful thank you.

Are you talking about getting the settings for SIM Security..?
I found them in Settings> Security> Setup Sim Card lock.
the other Sim Settings like Call forwarding etc are accessible through Dialer's Settings.

No my friend, I have attached a screen shot the setting I am talking about.
I assume no one uses the sim toolkit to do anything.
Thank you

I have it in 4.2.1 so it must be your ROM related issue

No my sim lock isn't enabled.
Can someone with 4.2.1 stock confirm they have sim toolkit by default ?

On both gnex and nexus 4 my sim toolkit is there. Running on 4.2.1. All I did was to enable the sim lock. I read it somewhere here that it's supposed to be a security thing so if your sim lock is disabled, it won't show. Try it

Well I did what you guys suggested ,still no luck ,I just checked my friends phone who is on 4.2.1 , he has sim toolkit , but he did OTA updates , and I downloaded the ROM from google website.
I cant understand why I can see it on 4.1 but not on 4.2.1, and the ROM is also stock.

Thanks for your help guys I figured it out , you have to enable / disable the airplane mode then you can see the sim toolkit but its unusable when I click on it , it just keeps on loading. so I think there is something wrong with it in the stock rom as a lot of users have reported it.
Thanks

So I figured out the stk.apk is corrupted in the new ROM , so I want to extract the stk.apk from 4.1.2 , is there a way to do it ?

Sadly from what I've read we can't utilize it within the built in settings it requires an app to work. What app is the question as well as why? really wish it would work.

Wifi tether and built in hotspot not working.

Hey guys, I tried to use the built in hotspot app on my sprint gnex running 4.1 rujellying m1 and the computer detects Android AP but doesnt connect.
I installed wifi tether from the playstore and chose samsung galaxy nexus CDMA/LTE in the settings and my computer wont even detect its SSID.
Anything I'm doing wrong?
Tried an older version of wifi tether and still cant detect it with my computer or ipad.

I haven't needed to install any other apps. I just set it up for wifi hot spot, check the specs on the password and then just connect with another device. In my case, a Nook Color running an unlocked version of Gingerbread. Works fine.
Edit: Oh wait, you have a CDMA phone? Your carrier may have installed software to prevent this.
Yeah, but I'm on a custom Rom and trying everything and cant tether. I did everything as specified in qbking's youtube video guide and it refuses to work.

its a new phone
att screwed up the data part
I called 611, they said in your order we dont know if I need 20$ or 30$ data
so it was disabled
they enabled it, its working today
again, this has nothing to do with unlocking, it was totally safe...

I installed Vanilla ICS The phone started fine, calls and messages work fine but I dont get any data. Is there something i did wrong? Are there any settings that need to be changed.

Usually Some ROMS include a Cricket.zip that does it for you.

Galaxy nexus network issue! strange behaviour

I got a nexus from ebay the seller was from HK, i recieved the phone and everything works except for calls/texts. The phone just doesnt get the signal on the notification bar it always has a small x showing no service. Few strange things happened when i tried experimenting. I checked out all the forums and all possible solutions with no help.
When i insert a sim card and enter a APN there is still no network but i get internet from the sim card( i am sure im not connected to wifi). I get my whatsapp msgs but as i get my msgs the signal bar still shows there is no coverage.
Also when i put phone on airplane mode, in the lockscreen it says my networks name(airtel) and when i check my status it shows that there is some signal strength but im unable to make calls or texts or use stable internet.
I tried changing the baseband, tried all the global basebands with no luck.i flashed to 4.0.4 from googles official site too.
When i search for networks manually it shows my network along with a bunch of others but when i try connecting it fails.
Im attaching few screenshots of what i explained above, please help me out.
Thanks you.

I am also having the same issue all of a sudden. For me only Vodafone sim is not working here in mumbai. Airtel is working in my gnex. So the only option for me is to port my number to airtel. You can also try using sim cards of different network provider. Also try to use cwm recovery 6.0.3.5. Because the latest cwm recovery also causes some problem with the network( thats what i read in some forum).
If you get any solution kindly share with us.

Try other sim cards of different network providers and check which one works for you. If you find a working one the only option you will have will be to port your number to that provider or buy a new Sim. I am also planning to do the same
