Unknown CID is fine but did you check your APN?

I will check that one.
actually i dont know the APN settings, I will search for it.
While searching available networks in network settings, it displays error.
I assume that available networks are detected even if its not registered on network, am i right?

did you configure your apn for your network?
You can connect with wifi? Try to connect with wifi, if it cant connect, you can contact support center, if it can connect, you go to setting, wireless and network, choose mobile network and config, choose a 'enable network'
Yes my apn settings are set for tmobile an yes i can sign into wifi i dunno wth is goin on..

Contact your carrier, if it's the same on all ROMs then their network might be down

data connection is not working

i changed my local carrier and of course my sim.
my problem is, data connection is not appearing on my new sim. i personally cut it.
btw my old sim has no problem w/ data connection.
Do i have to buy a new sim and cut it with the real cutting device?
Call your carrier ask for their apn setting.
Chances are your new sim doesn't have their apn setting pre-coded only.

No data

Okay so I unlocked my T Mobile phone and now I'm in the Philippines and bought one of their sim cards. The problem is i'm not getting any data. No 2g, 3g, or LTE. I wonder what the problem is or is there a setting I need to enable.
Set-up the apn of Smart or Globe or Sun or whatever sim you have.
Its NOT lupus! But it's always the APN...

Need Rogers APN settings.

Hi all. I am trying to set up my new zenfone , and am having a hard time with the APN settings. The settings I have previously used on my M7 don't seem to be working for me. When I go into settings and go to access point names, I find SIM 1. From there I have several options, but I don't know which one to use. I tried setting up the one names Rogers Phone LTE, but that did not work. Are there any forums members with Rogers zenfones that could lend me assistance. Also I have a strange icon in my notification bar. It is a hand symbol with a star on it. Anybody know what that is? Thanks.

Help! Phone can't send out text messages?

My girlfriend just got the s4 from her mom, it's originally a Verizon phone but it's unlocked. She put in her t mobile sim and everything else works fine, calling, receiving calls, receiving text, Internet. But as soon as she tries to send out a text, it fails everytime instantly. She tried calling t mobile and visiting the store but they were no help. Anyone know how to fix this?

This happened to me when I first used a Sprint Galaxy S4 and then took it to MetroPCS. I had to enter the APN info for T-Mobile and then set the APN as active. go to settings,more networks, mobile networks, access point names and create your new APN by tapping the PLUS sign. Save by tapping the bottom left hand button.

Did the Verizon phone save your APN? I know for a fact that SPRINT phones are stuffed full of proprietary references to Sprint servers.

I'm pretty sure it did, I'll try it again. Even the t mobile employees tried the same while at the store.

Is your phone rooted? If so, I would try Titanium Backup and try freezing an app called VZWSetup. I did something similar on my wife's S3 and it worked well for using the phone with other carriers.........

Along with the APN, make sure the Message Center number is the correct one for T-Mobile: +12063130004
This should be in the Messaging app under Settings.

I am glad the last responder brought this up. Sometimes you will see proprietary Verizon and Sprint APPS that will not allow you to change the Voicemail either. If there is a Verizon Voicemail program I would freeze it too. As far as rooting your phone? No big deal.
