I just upgraded to the 4.4 Snapshot (cm-11-20140405-SNAPSHOT-M5-maguro). Everything works flawlessly except the data. I cannot connect to the Internet with data enabled. Voice calling works great.
Been on a support call with an ATT representative with no avail. I'm not sure whether this is a ROM issue. I was searching online and it appears that for Sprint phones, there's an additional APN installation that one has to do for data to work. But I'm unaware of anything similar for ATT.
Any help debugging this will be much appreciated. Thanks.
Turned out to be a rather simple issue. I have 4G data on my family plan but Galaxy Nexus has only 3G. And yet the ATT representative wasn't able to figure it out. I just switched the APN from ATT LTE to ATT Phone and data worked.

I've been using my rooted HTC Evo 4G on Page Plus Cellular (MVNO using the Verizon Wireless network) on their $29.95 per month Talk n Text 1200 plan (1200 minutes, 3000 SMS/MMS, and 100MB of data transfer) successfully for a couple of months now, and I have run into only two significant issues that maybe someone else has been able to solve or work around.
Although SMS works just fine, MMS does not. I've tried using the stock app, the GO SMS Pro app and Handsent SMS app without success. I've tried an ESN reset with Page Plus which didn't appear to help either.
I am also not getting 3G, just 1X. This one is not quite as important to me as the SMS issue is, since there is only 100MB of data available on the $29.95 plan.
I'm wondering if anyone else who is using an EVO 4G on Page Plus Cellular has found a workaround for the MMS and/or 3G issues? If so, could you reply with the fix, as well as the ROM you have flashed on your phone?
Thanks!
Maybe you could take a look at the different tutorials that have been made for Boost to get 3g and mms working.

OK, after flashing a couple of new roms, it appears my issues are either rom or kernel related.
Under MikG v3.0 Re-Engineered GB Sense 2.1 + 3.0 both 3G and MMS were non-functional.
After downgrading to a non-Gingerbread rom, Myn's WarmTwoPointTwo, 3G worked but I still couldn't get MMS operational.
Next, I tried Myn's newest rom Warm TwoPointThree - Release One. MMS appears to work on this one with Go SMS Pro, but I'm back to 1X data Plus the rom itself is still pretty buggy, although I'm sure the design team will work the issues out eventually.
I'm happy with functional MMS (with 1X data) for the moment, but it would be ideal to have both. I suppose it's just a matter of trying different roms until I find one that works 100%. I haven't yet tried flashing a different kernel to see what effect that would have on 3G or MMS, but that would be my next project.

Sure. Page Plus Cellular is a vendor of pre-paid cellular services that uses Verizon's wireless network. It is similar to Virgin Mobile, TRACfone, Net10, Boost Mobile, Straight Talk and MetroPCS.
Page Plus is notable for having an unofficial open device policy. Most Verizon postpaid phones and Alltel phones can be activated (with limitations). Other CDMA phones can be flashed or reprogrammed to their network including devices from Sprint, US Cellular, etc. Page Plus does have some phones that are disallowed from being activated on their system including Blackberries, prepaid Verizon /Alltel phones and the new Verizon/CDMA iPhone.

No 3-way on Pageplus
i'M USING AN evo 4G on PagePlus also.
Have the Pic text working (You cannot use WIFI for Pic Text)
and am getting 3G.
The only thing I am unable to get working is 3-way call.
If your 3way works on PagePlus, what did you do to make it work?
thank you
EVO
Hi,
I now have EVO 3D with Pageplus 3G data working LOCKED. Figured it out.
Thanks!
my evo says 3G but i'm getting 1xRTT speeds... does anyone have a fix for this...
Some of the ROMs on the Evo 4g are locked at 3g. Just because you're getting the 3g icon doesn't mean you're actually getting 3g! Example? The stock ROM.
Getting 1xRTT seems to be the norm. 3g is attainable, some are saying but they want to charge me to do it! Good luck!
As for the MMS issue. You need the apn settings. Might need to use GO SMS or something. But it is definitely apn settings. Use apn backup/restore from the market and get someone who has an android on Pageplus to backup their settings and give it to you. You restore it to your phone. Or try the apn settings from a Verizon phone... maybe Pageplus and Verizon use the same apn settings.
Good luck.
actually check this thread out it worked for me!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575749
Though I too couldn't get 3g working cause the internet is so slow... I wonder if they have a tutorial for getting the HA and AAA codes when cloning a phone our getting 3g to work correctly.
If there is one can someone post the link I have looked and no luck
I just unlocked my T989D using the guide on here and everything worked fine. I can even get a different sim working on the phone and use it to call/text but it won't pick up a Data connection.
I just tried a Fido sim and it sees the APN settings and everything but the data connection just does not work.
Can someone shed some light on this for me please?

Data is for internet and apps.....phone calls and texts just use the radio signal. Just to be clear. They're 2 different things. You don't need data for calls and texts. I think you know this, but wanted to be sure.
Do you have the new Telus or T-Mobile radio flashed? Only those 2 work on anything current. So what rom or stock version are you running? With the proper radio and apn settings, it should work.
Tho if its an issue caused by unlocking, then I'm not sure.....never done it myself. Did you Google the issue??

Yah I knew that about data. But I managed to get it to work. All I had to do was click on reset to default under APN settings and it started working.
No idea why that worked because I never entered any settings myself but let the actual phone pick up the stuff from Fido.. oh well now it all works.
Hey guys, so I'm looking into FreedomPop (http://www.freedompop.com/), which is a somewhat newer thing to my state. I set it up on his phone and not entirely sure about it. They give you 1gb of data, yet you have to download their messaging app. When you activate it activates your data, but calling and text cant be used besides through their app which uses data. Ie, your data is used for everything from what I can tell and cell signal is worthless.
The point of this is I'm wondering if it will work on the Sprint S3 SPH-L710 and if that is how freedompop is meant to work since I cannot find any info at all about it. Would prefer to use the stock messaging app but it just gives you a sprint text saying you cant text as if you're still on sprint and all the info in your phone says sprint, network says sprint, etc..
FreedomPop s3
I just in the last week got a s3 from FreedomPop it is running 4.4.2 and came with there dailer and messaging apps installed and the stock ones have been removed. as far as I can tell they are using sprint the phone even says sprint on the back. also when I set up my google voice number it asked me if I wanted to use that as the main number on the phone witch to my understanding is a sprint only thing? but I can confirm google voice connecting for texting and sipdroid will connect but because they removed the stock dialer I cant call out with sipdroid. I hope this helps you out. I am only just now trying to play with sipdroid so I might have more info later.

Apparently the mobile phone part of them is in beta stages. But from what I've noticed, you don't actually have service. Only data service. Everything uses data. If you were to disable data, nothing would work. As far as I can see on the S2 because everything you do it recorded as data under settings. Like phone calls and texts. Where as a normal network it would be over the cell towers and not the data towers. I know they are the same thing but if you're in an area without data, but have signal still, you'd be screwed in that situation.
So I jumped on the AT&T/DirecTV Unlimited data deal and ported my phone today. It all looked normal and I got the activation texts and such - it even populated the nxtgenphone APN info (though it was deselected and I had to select it). Anyway, I've had no data at all. As a test, I switched the APN to phone and data works, but the speeds appear to be much lower than what my wife's iPhone is seeing on the nxtgenphone APN. Anyone got any tips?
I'm running Viper 2.5, latest US unlocked firmware and US unlocked selected as carrier, and it works fine on AT&T other than this......only other thing I can mention is when I select preferred band or whatever it shows WCDMA/GSM and if I change it to WCDMA/GSM/LTE it reverts back for some reason. Any help much appreciated. I've called AT&T and they're like, uh, we don't sell the HTC 10 so can't really help you... grrrrrr.....

I'd suggest ruu to stock us unlocked rom and see if the issue persists.
Or, try clean flash of viper.
I have no issues using US unlocked on AT&T with both stock rom and ice.
Thanks for trying to help. I just finished trying stock RUU and same problem. I'm convinced, as I was before, that this is AT&T's issue. I've read numerous posts this afternoon that because the HTC 10 (and other phones) aren't in their "LTE approved" database, nxtgenphone APN won't work, or it will only give HSPA speeds. Seems like everyone who has resolved it, or didn't run into the issue at all had another AT&T LTE phone they could use for the IMEI on the account, or the rep entered the model as an iPhone or similar to make it work. Really, really frustrating, as they refuse to help me and I'm starting to think I should just terminate in the 14 day window and do T-mobile or Verizon.
I have at&t and everything worked out of the box, I've never been on stock rom, always on Viper I did the unlock and s-off without a sim and never had an issue or called at&t to activate the device I just transferred my sim from my note 4 to the HTC 10, no provisioning issues at all, VOLTE works, LTE is fine as well while on a phone call... No issues... If you need anything to compare let me know

Thanks for replying. They did confirm it was a provisioning issue and they fixed it today. They had to do something different, as the default HTC 10 provisioning and IMEI check didn't fix it even when they tried it a second time, but they were able to adjust something and LTE definitely works now. VoLTE working here, too. Thanks!
Hey all, I've been pouring over the forums here and other places trying to find a solution to my issue. I just got a Pixel 2XL the verizon version and I'm using it on Straight Talk with an AT&T sim card. So far so good except I cannot get wifi calling. I'm pure stock, android 9/Pie, no bootloader unlocks/rooting etc. The wifi calling option does not exist in the phone app nor in the settings anywhere. Even when you search for wifi calling, it simply takes you to the network and connections section of settings but wifi calling is no where to be found. I've tried the adb command (the one that apparently used to work on Oreo but not longer does on Pie) and that didn't work (though I didn't expect it to since many people said it no longer works on Pie). I have an Unlocked Note 9 as well and its wifi calling works perfectly fine so does anyone have a way to make this work? Reception at my home is somewhat lacking and I really need wifi calling.
Thanks!

Could you attach a screenshot with the WHOLE section of "Mobile Network", found inside of "Network & Internet" in the Settings -- make sure that you click on the drop down menu next to "Advanced Calling" -- this will help make sure that wifi calling is really missing as well as might point something out that may help with a solution. Moreso, personally, because I can't even imagine what the settings menu looks like missing this...

It might be a long shot but try checking the settings in the Google phone app. There should be a place that says configure IMS calling. I have this setting here and in the network settings. If you have it that's where you can enable wifi calling.

Been there done that. I have no options for setting up IMS calling. I only have SIP options. Also, I have tried the phone dialer trick (where you dial *#*#4636#*#*) and that shows the wifi calling option as a toggle but its greyed out and cannot be enabled. I even tried an adb trick that used to work on the 1st gen pixels, but to no avail.
What happens when you enter your information here?
I'll have to initiate a chat with Straight Talk. Like you I have a Pixel 2 XL with a Straight Talk AT&T SIM. The only difference is that mine is unlocked. I just ran my phone number and the IMEI of the SIM through the linked site and it tells me my device is not compatible. Since I have a BYOP SIM and the IMEI is of the SIM itself, chances are high that the SIM needs replacing with one that includes WiFi calling support.
EDIT: According to the representative I just spoke with, there's no guarantee that changing to a newer AT&T SIM will enable the feature. The only guaranteed method according to tech support is switching to a T-Mobile SIM.

Hey thanks for the help. I tried that link as well (before I posted here; sorry I should have mentioned it) and it said my device is also not compatible. I initiated a chat with them and they told me the same; switch to T-Mobile. I am tempted to do so but the one thing holding me back is my home is already a place I get poor signal and T-mobile's coverage while much improved still isn't as good at AT&T's. I realize that having wifi calling would fix any lingering signal issues but I do manage to get 1-2 bars of 3G at my house with AT&T, I figure I won't even get that with T-Mobile. So I am weary of the switch. I'll have to consider it though. I could also wait for the full rollout of the latest google voice (since it finally is bring VOIP without the need of hangouts) and just use that number instead.
So I contacted Straight Talk and ordered a T-Mobile sim card. It'll be here in a few days. I will post my findings after it arrives. Straight talk support says wifi calling works with all T-Mobile sim cards so we will see.
Hello all,
Okay, so I finally got switched over to a T-Mobile sim card (again still with straight talk). It took a while cause I had to buy a new one (the old one I had expired; who'd have thought?). Anyways, switching to T-Mobile solved all my problems and then some. Not only do I have Wifi calling, but also HD voice, VOLTE, Tethering, and 3-4 bars of LTE (previously on AT&T, I got 1-2 bars of 3G). I realize the signal issues is merely a coverage thing but I can say with certainty that switching to a T-Mobile sim card will give you all the advanced features. I hope this helps others who might experience this problem. I've been using AT&T (in one form or another) for the better part of a decade and can now honestly say, AT&T sucks.
