There are a lot of threads out there about how to check and back up APN settings and then restore them if need be. What's the most reliable and easiest way that someone can recommend?
I'm on CM10 nightlies with MY kernel
Thank you.

Honestly I just kept a screen shot or two of the att APN settings. Only time I have needed it is with Black jelly ROM as it came with Cingular apn.
BTW, APN settings is under settings -> more settings -> mobile networks....

Don't forget it to store that ss somewhere it won't get erased, like Dropbox. On case you accidentally wipe your internal/external sd card

I fixed it by flashing a new ROM and wiping all the data!
Someone please help! I don't know what to do!
Nevermind, I think I fixed it!
I fixed it by changing the band to GSM Preferred/GSM ALL but now I only get E. Any way I can get back 4g?
Change it back to automatic or Odin kl1 modem from rootzwiki team kang post.

I changed it to auto, and i'm getting signal. Time to check if 4g. Thanks.
EDIT: It shows signal, but Im not getting any. Can't send text or browse web. Time to odin modem.
I flashed it, and I went to settings and looked at the network mode: It was GSM only. I changed it to auto mode. It seems to still get and send texts, and I looked at band selection with the dialer code, and there wasn't a star besides anything. I think it might've worked, but I still only get e.
By flashed I mean odined. Lol

I tried changing it to automatic in the band selection menu, and it showed signal, but texts didn't send.

Also, if it means anything, I can't change it to wcdma only in settings.

I had same issue and this is how I fixed it.
disable data connection and switch your phone off, remove the back cover and remove sim card completely. Then re-insert sim card and turn your phone back on and it should ask you to re-enable data connection once it boots up.
let me know if this helps

I did this, but it didn't ask me to turn it back on, so I turned it on manually, and still only E.

Other phones receive 3G? Perhaps T-Mobile is servicing your area? This has happened to me but I had no control over it.

Weird. My issue was that I was testing a few of the skyrocket modems. After using Odin to get kl1 it worked again. Yeah i would sugeest resetting apn in wireless settings .
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Here's what I did that messed with my 3G
I flashed skyrocket roms.
So what I did was wipe everything. Go to mounts and storage and format system. Then flash Juggernaut or any other rom you desire. Then you're done

If there is that would be nice, LTE is killing my battery. I'm rooted on stock, but I'm not terribly opposed to switching to another touchwiz rom if necessary. Thanks!

I would imagine setting up the 3G APN and deleting the LTE APN would do the trick.
Doesn't let you delete the old one

Oh, didn't see your edited post. I assumed you were on a custom rom. In case of stock, no idea, sorry.
Oh ok, thanks anyways!

You shouldn't have to delete the old one. You **should** be able to make a new one and set it as the default.
Yes either use new apn and set as default or better yet just change the network mode of the phone to the second option so that it never looks for the lte in the first place! (GSM/hspa auto mode instead of GSM/hspa/lte auto mode). U should see this network mode option if not use dialer *#2263# and then select any non lte option u want. If ur rooted then u have options! But simple network mode change is by far easiest. Settings/more settings(under data usage) mobile networks and network mode.

These menus won't work after JB update. Anyone know how to set phone to prefer 4g after the new update?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Tmo is edge or 3g. A very fast 3g they call 4g.
Download battery monitor widget. Add the widget. Click the widget. Select tests from the menu on the bottom. Select device information. Scroll down and you can set radio preferences. Back out using the back button and it will save your setting.

Right. No 4g per the actual definition. Good marketing ploy I guess. Is there a way to use a shortcut key code like before on ics?

I can't find it... I wonder why they removed it.
Someone put some list together of over 30 codes. You will have to search because I am posting from my phone. The battery monitor widget works great. I have used it on all my android phones. Give it a try.

When I go in the regular network settings I can't change it to wcdma only either. It's stuck on auto mode.

I changed back to the LJ4 radio. It works the best for me. That may be the difference. Sorry. Did not think of that earlier. My bad.

Just flashed back to root stock jb and it works fine. Just off been a rom issue? Hmm....

Just curious... What rom did you flash after jellybean update? I plan on playing around with some of the custom roms tomorrow.
Infamous. I dirty flashed it so that may have been why the radio would not stick but, I'm not sure. Wicked is a nice ICS ROM. I have tried a few of wild's ROMs too. They were good. Haven't tried many others.

Agree on wicked. Can't wait for v8.
Just download Phone info from the market. It's so much easier than entering the code and easier then using battery monitor

So, today my phone decided to disconnect from Google servers and never reconnect again. I tried clearing Google services framework, turning airplane mode off then on, rebooting. Nothing worked. I even searched for network providers. No luck. Icon remained gray.
I remembered an alternate apn for ATT that used to make my old atrix way faster than the default apn settings. As soon as I changed my apn, all was back to normal. I guess att will be eliminating the WAP apn in the near future. Anyways, see the screenshots for what worked for ME.

None at all. Make sure you save the settings then select it. Also, delete the original apn settings to prevent any conflicts.

Thanks, got a different one to work though. Of course after finding one I went back to my daily driver (switched to another nandroid to see if that was issue) and now the default works. Go figure.

The default failed me big time today. Nothing like having no connectivity when you need it the most.

For some reason I no longer have data. No matter what I try, I've restored back to stock, I've been on every ROM available to us, and still, no 3D. Forget 4G. Anyone else experience anything like this? Or have any ideas on a fix?

Check under System Settings > About phone > Phone Identity...are those values all 0's or are the filled with your number and other values?
If it is blank, your EFS got wiped.
Update profile and data and press activate your phone in settings.
