No Data, How To check apn settings - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

so i rooted and flashed my moms phone for here. though now i cant get data on any rom i use. Ive tried Cm10, domination, and now liquid smooth. the 3g icon is there and the data activity indicator is blinking the up and down arrows, but the signal bars remain gray with no data. im currently on liquid smooth trying to figure out how to get to my apn settings, but there is no voice dialer app to say "open apns" to. yea i did flash a ics modem (FB15) and im really hoping to fix this quickly, so she can stop flipping out.
before i gave this phone to my mom and jumped to tmobile with a galaxy s4, ive never had problems like this. Also when i had this phone, voice dialer was on every rom, so forgive me for the noobish question of how to get to the apn settings. also, if you can post the current apn settings sprint uses, that would be helpful
EDIT: Flashed Revolt, data still doesnt work but it had voice dialer. opened apn settings but everything seemed fine. but i would still like for someone to post the default apn settings just so i can make sure
Edit 2: with having no luck, odined back to stock. data works fine. will keep stock unitll the issues are resolved

Try putting TW on for your mom. If she likes the feel of stock, she'll love the custom feel of some of the roms out now. And before you flash CM(I recommend dastin1015's Wild For The Night), flash FL24 modem, update prl and profile. See if that helps. And it will have voice dialer too .

but it wasnt just cyanogen mod, it was every AOSP rom i used. and im pretty sure paranoid android isnt based on cm anymore, which means it shouldnt have the same bugs. Unless the releaser of the rom for this phone merged cm10 code to make it work

It's AOSP too. I've read they have issues as well. Again, my advice, get her TW and let her customize the crap out of it.

Wifi issues on stock ICS upgrade?

Hey everyone, I got the stock ICS from Kies about a month ago, and hated how horrific the WiFi signal was, so I rooted, got a darkside rom, and still stunk. I don't want to upgrade to something that is less powerful, and has a lot less reliability. Does anyone else have WiFi strength issues on ICS in general? I mean I really just want the most stable rom and rooted, but I know I don't want it if it's not 100% ready for day-to-day use and for college, when I can't get a new clockwork mod or something. Any help? Thanks!
Have you checked in wifi settings to see if you are on 2.4 or 5.0 ghz settings? Try them both to see if your signal strength changes

well I'm not sure if I want to upgrade to ICS yet unless it is really as stable as gingerbread, and are you saying I can change that in wifi settings on ICS? And what's the best way to upgrade to ICS? Kies? or another method?
Radio maybe

Well, I've had no problems with ics yet. I'm not very happy with tw, too much of it looks just like it did in gb. The Apple-style notifications on the app icons just bug me. And the mail client is just enough like the standard ics email client to be infuriating. (loses selected message list if you accidentally open a message instead of checking the box.)
So I'll be rioting soon and hunting down cm9 or 10.

Sorry for the bump but I still have this issue no matter the rom. Tried everything. Wifi strength is the only thing keeping me back from a rom different from stock which I hate by the way. Any help again would be great. Thanks again xdaers!

I keep coming back to stock ics (tweaked with a different launcher and sms app since I despise the tw launcher and messaging apps) since it's usually more stable than the cm10 ports. I haven't had wifi issues on any ROM yet, so this could be a ymmv moment.

Try a different radio is what I would do.. It's probably not the rom

Data problems with CM10

This is my first post. I have been rooted, learning, flashing ROMs and other stuff for about a year now. I'm on aero's CM10 10/11 build and ever since I installed it my data randomly goes from 3g to 1xx and signal is always at 1 bar. I don't have any problems when I switch to backups of other ROMs. Is any one else experiencing this and any thoughs would be appreciated.
Also wanted to share that I can go to settings/sounds and reselect my ringtone for a quick fix for audio. I thought it might be helpful to someone but I did not have enough posts to post in thread.

I also have this issue on CM10 based roms, I did upgrade to the latest radio .320 and has helped a little but it still happens from time to time. That is why I keep going back to ICS for now. I think a lot of my problems are my location, I live in a small town and not the best coverage.

Be sure your metal contacts are making good contact with the back plate, I also live in a low service area and service is never really great here, but with my old DX2 it had consistently better signal.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
I appreciate the info but I have already tried all the above and I previously and installed the new radio .320 and ics frameware when it was posted on xda. One strong thing to me I noticed it only looses the data connection when I'm on the web or on a app that needs a 3g connection. I'm going to try the 10/16 build tomorrow and see if it changes anything. Thanks

Have you checked your Gsm,Cdma,Evdo, settings?
I'm on the newest build now and it's back to normal the signal still isn't the best but that's typical for our device. I have been on the newest build since last night and it has not dropped data yet. So, so far so good

Try a Different CM 10 build
DKStunna has done a pretty good job with his build. It runs nicely, you do get a random FC (force close) every now and again. GSM doesn't work, and MMS doesn't work on verizon until you put in the APN in the thread:
Go to System Settings > More... (under wireless and networks) > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
-Press Menu
-Select New APN
-Put in this info:
Name = Verizon
APN = internet
MMSC = http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
-Press Menu
-Select Save
-Back Button
-Tick the new Verizon APN

after a lot of determination and prior experience with this problem i realized that once you input the same apn a couple of times it eventually registers, i have 8 of the same apns under different names (the names do not have to be specific for data to work)

Still having 3g issues on cm10 12/07

I have read the countless posts on the 3g issues, but when I try to access *#*#4636#*#* and change to wcdma only or preferred it won't stay the option just instantly changes back to CDMA and won't stick.
I was on paranoid android and flashed the cm10.1 12/08 nightly hoping the fix would work but it hasn't really. I read of a flashable fix and was hoping to get that but the link is down. Not really sure what to do at this point and I don't want to go back to touch wiz

Not sure wat 3g issues u speak of... 3g should be the least of ur concerns on cm10. Changing the settings in *#*#4636#*#* is temporary. Use the network selection mode under system settings in cm10. Ur problem is most likely not from 3g but from the hand off from 3g to (ehrpd) to lte and any combination of the above. It is a known issue even if ur not in a full lte covered area yet. The APN is not configured properly. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35205882.

And I'm pretty sure there's an apn commit being entered in the next nightly that addresses the problem

As a user the problem manifests itself as me not being able to get 3g back unless I reboot so that's why I called it a 3g issue, sorry for not using the correct jargon. But thanks for the link.
The zip in that link worked temporarily but now I'm back to the same issues but worse because I completely lose all radios a few times a minute, except WIFI when lte is off in settings. When lte/cdma is selected in settings I have the same issues as before.
I think at this point I'm just going back to a touch wiz Rom it's not worth the missed calls and text messages to be on an awesome Rom. When my phone came back on from the fix i had like five text messages pop up from last night. And now I'm always just going to winner what I missed. I heard this bug mainly affects non touch wiz roms

[Q] 3g on 4.3 ROM won't connect

Currently on Goodness Noteworthy 1.0.8 (4 1.2).
I've tried the latest Illusion & PA 4.3 ROMs. I liked them, both, very much.
The problem is I cannot get a 3g connection with either ROM. I live in a non-LTE area so this is a deal breaker.
It's not my location because I have fantastic 3g on Goodness in the same places.
I tried updating PRL & profile, before flashing, still no connection.
I've seen others are having this problem with those ROMs as well.
I was thinking I might need to flash a 4.2 ROM, that has a good 3g connection, before moving up to 4.3 but now I see people have had the same issue in 4.2.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I'm currently running PA 3.99 and 3g and 4g seems spotty. Even wifi is not as reliable. PA 3.99 is my first flashed rom and have been a daily for me...but not sure how much longer i can take it. Thinking about flashing a 4.2.2 rom.

Did you ever get resolution on this? I'm having a very similar issue with AOKP's latest 4.3 rom. I've also noticed that sometimes I can get service if I reboot a few times, but that's a PITA when I'm just trying to listen to streaming music in the car.

Yeah. I messed around with changing the APN but still no luck. I guess I'll wait for an update to AOKP like you did with PA. At least my wifi works. Thanks!
I just deleted the "Sprint" APN and it behaves a lot better (not perfect). Need to test more APN configs to try and figure it all out.

The only way I managed to fix this was to flash an older version of Aosp Rom. I'm using cm10.2 and I clean flashed back to a 9/25 nightly.

[Q] Galaxy S3 stuck on Edge?

Don't know if this is the roms fault or what. I am on the latest nightly (9/19) of Carbon rom and have a Galaxy S3 (I747) with ATT.*I have recently been getting terrible reception and it takes a few minutes to update when I go to a new area. It also seems that I am only getting 2g (2g only is not checked). When I was using stock rom my reception was great and I was getting 4G LTE in the same areas. Don't know if this could be a problem with the APNS (they look fine, currently have it set to phone) or what. I recently did a clean install to see if that would make a difference but it doesn't seem so. Any advice would be appreciated. I also just updated my modem fw to the latest version and it didn't fix the edge problem. The preferred network is on the correct setting as well. I don't believe this is a problem with my IMEI.
Search for the user "meanhacker". He has a fix in his sig that might help u out. :good:
I just found out my IMEI was set to zero. I'm trying to do what this says here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117 however I can't get the phone to dial th mmi. Keeps saying invalid or no connection. Any advice?
Are you using a touchwiz ROM or custom? Cm, aokp? The dial code can only be used on touchwiz.
