[q] help! Urgent! - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi, I'm in the United States, using AT&T on a telus branded galaxy s3
unlocked using the jelly bean unlocking trick...
trouble is, now it won't hold a call and will disconnect at random times
saying that i'm "out of network area"
It will reconnect to the network soon after (a second or two after my call disconnects)
but will repeatedly drop calls soon after...
I can't get a call going for more than a minute!
So I tried buying an unlock code from cellunlockers.net,
and got one.
But the problem is, I can't input the codes either...
It says connection error or invalid MMI code...
So i can't input any USSD codes...
So here are my questions:
What can I do to fix this issue?
Can I lock the phone again and undo the jelly bean unlock trick?
Thanks in advance!

I don't think it has anything to do with unlocking the phone, if your phone is locked you can't place a call. it has to do with the network you're on. Have you considered that you might actually be "out of network area"? Do you have the proper apn settings?

So what can I do to fix this problem?
Should I try getting a new sim card?

Do you have the proper apn settings?
How long has this been happening?
What Rom are you on? Stock?
What version?
We need more info to be able to help.

I just went into APN settings and
clicked set as default... is that not what I should have done?

What Rom are you on? Stock?
What version?
We need more info to be able to help.
Did setting apn as default Help? Try making a phone call.

I'm currently on stock rooted 4.1.1,
and this problem has been happening for
the month and a half or so i've had an AT&T sim card
in my galaxy s3...
Under APN settings, there's only one APN,
Cingular 410

You need to add the proper APN for AT&T. Just search for att apns and you'll find them here on XDA.

Unfortunately I have to get going. Please give as much info as you can. If you need help you're in the right place. There are tons of android savvy geeks at your fingertips. Good Luck!

Ok. So it seems as though you are not giving enough information for anyone to efficiently be able to help you. Please provide as much info as possible. You said you are on AT&T (Not the gophone plan). You need to find out what APNs that the gophone SIM uses so that you can enter those in the APN Settings.

I found apns that allow for data, but it's the default one

the two into one?

You just told me you are on gophone? What are you on? A gophone plan or an AT&T plan? Like I stated before you need the APN settings for the type of plan you have. Try these for GOPHONE. You need to make two APNs and delete all other apns!!!

It's still dropping calls! T.T
Are there any other APNs I can use or is there a way to input the unlock code
via a ussd code on this version of the galaxy s3? I think it might be a bad unlock...
or at least that's what the telus live chat support agent told me

is your IMEI intact? Dial *#06# and tell me if it's the same IMEI as the back of the battery or it's 0.

Wow thank you so much dude, they were the same. I was losing hope of anyone posting them! Thanks.
Glad I can help. Oddly, I noticed my infuse only has the the core apn; it does not have the 2nd one (both on ROGERS).
Mine has both apns, yet its mega slow on tethering. Weird.

Thanks for the heads up; I think I'll delete the tethering one. My Infuse tethers on the core APN (well, the 2 times I've tethered so far).

[Q] Lg p930 leaked ics and rogers

Hi there everyone, I am new to your forum, but I have been using various mods on various devices over the years. I recently acquired an LG Optimus lte(p930) that was originally on bell. I unlocked it and started using it on rogers. I got everything working just fine, but was unsatisfied with performance. I found the leaked ICS software and updated it, and I love it!(So much so that I am going to abandon my iphone 4s) The only thing stopping me from moving forward is that I am unable to get my mms working. Data is work fine, but not mms, I manually entered the apn's but I noticed something was wrong.
ame: Rogers MMS
APN: media.com
Username: media
Password: mda01
Server: 172.25.0.107
MMSC: !!!not allowed to post link!!!!
MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS Port: 80
APN Type: mms
The server line for this is missing in the phone, and I entered it in the proxy, but that didn't work either. after so much more searching I found an alternate.
Name: Rogers MMS
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
MMSC: !! not allowed to post link
MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN Type: mms
But this flat out does not work. some sites say it is used for both mms and data, and I just cannot get it to work. Any suggestions or known ways to get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I apologize as this is my first post if this is in the wrong spot, but I wasn't allowed to post in other area's of the forum.
APN: rogers_core_appl1.apn
MMSC: http://mms.grps.rogers.com
MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69

*Do not add any other parameters!*
Open the browser, let it auto-configure to the point of browsing, restart, try MMS again. It *should* fill all the settings in automatically.
I just set up an unlocked Atrix on Rogers for my mom, this is what worked.
This one didn't for mms or data. I wonder if I have to set my account for it. At rogers that is.

APN settings for AT&T ???

Can someone forward the APN settings that you are using on your phone

Depends on your data plan on AT&T.
If you have the simple 3G smartphone plan, you can use the wap.cingular APN which is:
Code:
Name: Cingular 410
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: Blank
Port: Blank
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Server: cingulargprs.com
MMSC: http://mms.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: Blank
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: Blank
APN Type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: leave as is
Bearer: leave as is
If you have the Smartphone on 4G provisioned on your plan you can use the Phone APN which seems to be faster. My Nexus is provisioned for the later 4G plan and I combined my MMS with the Internet for one APN:
Code:
Name: AT&T HSPA+
APN: phone
Proxy: Blank
Port: Blank
Username: blank
Password: blank
Server: blank
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: Blank
APN Type: default,supl,mms,hipri
APN protocol: leave as is
Bearer: leave as is
You'll need to check on your AT&T plan to see what data plan you have. If you don't have Smartphone on 4G you can't use the phone apn. You have to use the cingular.wap one. I'm getting about 5 mb/s down and 1.1 mb/s up using the phone apn.
Hope this helps and remember the Thanks button!

Thanks for this. I searched the forums and whatever else thread that has the supposed APN info did not work. This though, works like a charm. :highfive:
Thanks! This APN for 4G worked on my T999 SG3 from T-Mobile that I just put on ATT. I managed to get 3.49 Mbps down from it. 4G icon. I guess this means my Iphone 5 LTE wont be used now lol.
It's not the APN, it's how the mms.apk was compiled. Download Go SMS Pro from the market, disable stock MMS app, go through the ADVANCE Settings in Go SMS. Find MMS Custom Agent & type "Android"
Done & Done.
I hope it works for you, too!

i grandfathered the unlimited data plan on att but lately i can't use my data plan and i am not sure why...
i can use text and calls but no internet connection ... do you have any idea on how to fix it ?
I was Not getting mobile data on my LGOG after flashing CM 10.2, and added the second APN listed here. I just tested, and down speeds are 9.85mb/s down. I'm not getting the 4G logo though? What gives? I've got the H.

Data Not Working Today?

For some reason my data connection funked out today. It has worked fine on the ROM, kernel, etc. up until this morning. For some reason I can't get it to work today. Anybody else with this issue?
I would download and reflash the radio, but at work I can't download things and my internet on my phone is (obviously) down. Hopefully this will fix it when I get home.
Have you tried toggling airplane mode? Rebooting?
Data isn't working for me either on stock rom. I didn't change anything today that would have caused this. I'm on AT&T.

Yes to both. Have tried the following so far:
Toggled data on and off.
Toggled Airplane on and off.
Rebooted.
Powered down, pulled battery and booted up again.
Restored previous fully functional nandroid of a different ROM through CWM.
So far no luck. I am unsure what would cause the radio to stop working with no apparent changes on my part.
Occasionally I have the H or H+ showing above my radio signal, but other times it disappears. Even with it showing I can't connect to internet, tried Browser, Facebook, and Tapatalk. Signal bars are grey signaling that connection is not made to Google servers. If I stay on home screen the H+ will return, but if I start an app like Facebook it disappears again or it just hangs on loading.
Very odd behavior.

Sounds like it could be an AT&T issue then, because I am also on their service. I will try to give them a call after work, I suppose.

For me it doesn't have anything to do with 4.2, because I am still on a 4.1.2 ROM. I have a few 4.2 gapps but those can't be the problem, either, because I have been using them for a long time (weeks).

Sorry, didn't catch that. So I switched my Note over to WAP and it won't connect to data. Must be an ATT issue with the cingular apn.
4.1.2 here, same issue. No data connection. Took it to the AT&T store and he added a new APN, but it still won't show up as H+. Just "H" and grey bars, as opposed to the blue color they used to be. If you guys want the info for the new APN they added, I can type it out for ya

AT&T here as well, data isn't working with cm10, or any 4.1.2 rom or official 4.2 either no matter what sort of trickery I try, nothing works. I think it is definitely on AT&T's end. Oh well, off to the bar I go!

Hmm... same here. I'm on a Cingular Blue plan, using the "proxy" apn. No data even though it thinks it's connected. Anyone hear a response from AT&T yet on this issue?
Anyone have a list of APNs that are dead? (maybe that would be a good start)
Got to be an att issue, mine was the same when I left the house, on microcell it's fine

The link got my wife's up and running. However, oddly enough, that didn't work for a friend who is still on 4.1.2
So far no luck with any of these APNs. I called AT&T and they didn't seem to have a clue what was happening, they also wanted me to call prepaid center since my nexus isn't in their help files. Will keep trying.
edit: looks like i had some luck with the APN quoted in the post above this one, not the picture in the other thread though.
swapping back to my preferred ROM and putting it in there to see if I can play again.

I use a modified version of the WAP APN. I deleted the user name and password because they seemed to slow things down. I added the APN Types from the PTA on just for kicks. I think it helps a little but not a lot, the difference in performance could be explained by normal fluctuations in bandwidth but it didn't hurt.
