Yet another problem .... :/ - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

So , A few weeks back there was a lightning storm . it shut off my phone service and home internet.Both came back on a few hours later .
Ever since then my phone hasnt been able to send MMS . I called Tmo and we went through my APN . Everything is correct . I can get on the internet with data but MMS fails.
I have no idea what to do .
Internet is confirmed working. Tmo apn is greyed out and doesnt let me edit anything.
Ok , Incoming MMS works.
Outgoing MMS fails and says Error:network error occured
Another phone same network confirmed working so the problem is with the Note 2 only and is outgoing MMS only . SMS works fine both ways .
Ok seems google play store fails too .
Internet , incoming MMS and every other app works fine

What was the last time you wiped your device?

what rom are you on

Well , I was wondering if it was a rom or wipe specific issue myself and I've been wanting to upgrade to 4.3 anyways so did all necessary steps to use 4.3.
Flashed Jedi X2 same problem .
Saw a touch whiz 4.4.2 rom on ATT forum that said it works with T-mobile just have to flash a modem . So I did .... same problem .
Just now I tried to send a MMS to myself and it went through . BUT , I had a H+ icon .
So then I started thinking . What if its a 4g network problem .
Ok so I just tried GSM only and on the E edge icon MMS works.
Then I tried WCDMA only and it goes from 3g to H+ and works
Then GSM/WCDMA auto connect which switches between both MMS works.
Then tried LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto connect and had a 4G icon and it failed and had the endless status circle
So the LTE 4g network is apparently the problem but I dont know why . I've entered official LTE Tmo apn from both online I found and directly from Tmo tech support so I know the APN is correct.

Did you ever mess with service mode or Sim unlock the device? There is an LTE frequency menu that I was never brave enough to fool with

No sir , before that thunderstorm I never had any problems . Service tech said when I'd originally called about the problem there was a service ticket open in my area with several people in my neighborhood not able to send out MMS as well. After several more calls the ticket had been closed as engineers had fixed whatever was going on ( so they say ) .
In that menu is there any kind of reset for the LTE network modules or any similar anything. Id def be willing to go in that hidden menu and have a gander.
ok some people get the MMS I send after the message is confirmed sent on my end and some dont .

Ok ...... POSSIBLE problem identified .
I've been reading Tmo US LTE uses IPV6 supposedly confirmed by Tmo tech support ( I guess false considering ipv4 is selected APN protocol and greyd on a stock official note 3 and not able to be edited ?? )
back to square one . A unrooted stock official note 3 has the same apn setting ipv4 and is also greyed out and mms works over data. :/ sum ***** .
Well I guess not square one... I have atleast isolated the problem to the 4g/LTE network being the only network not able to send MMS
On EZkat 4.4.2 ATT TW rom with Tmo modem . Although this problem has occured through 4.1.2 ( Jedi X20 ) , 4.3 ( Sammobile stock official ) 4.3 ( Jedi X2 ) and 4.4.2 ( ATT EZkat )which led me to think it made be a device hardware problem but the hardware responsible for outgoing MMS are responsible for incoming ( which again works on 4g/LTE ) ... ??
tmo apn is correct , incoming MMS work on 4g/lte and all other. , outgoing MMS only work on wcdma and gsm .
Internet works on any network . And also google play store doesnt work on 4g/LTE but works also on gsm or wcdma
Very strange and bizarre problem .

I had the same problem with MMS a while ago and what worked for me was turning off wifi calling. Somehow wifi calling was interfering with MMS. Once I turned off wifi calling, magically all the MMSs started coming in and sending out.

Help needed cant solve my desire problems

Hi guys,
It all started when i decided to go back to the stock 2.2 ... Everything went smooth but all of the sudden my signals went in to emergency calls.. and then the nightmare happens .. I cant make/received calls, cant send/received sms, can't even get a 3g signal. The funny thing about it is when i am driving then the signal appears and i am able to get the 3g status and full signal but the nightmare is still there can't do anything of the above that i mention. ppl call and it says my phone is off .. i try to make a call and i get a beep and it stop. sms was even sadder as i gets notifications on mulitple attempts on sms failed .. but i have to press retry and it goes thru.. sms received was in delayed mode like 30 mins later... i read that i need to do a factory reset .. did that but to no avail. Check on the network settings ... try to set the network mode which shows GSM/WCDMA auto. now weird thing is when i set it up to GSM everything is ok i can received calls sms the full works i can even go online..but the thing is i dun get the 3g status no more .. set it up to wcdma nothing happens just gave me a warning that my sim card is not applicable with it.
When i set the network mode to GSM/WCDMA auto.. it goes back to the normal state shows me 3g and my signal line full but i cant go online cant received calls and etc. and it doesnt stop there after awhile say in 2 mins its goes NO signal and the emergency status comes up.
Have anyone run in to this problems before?...
just in case my phone is

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Well i did check with the network settings and check the apn everything is in order. First try it was ok it was able to select my service provider and the 3g status appeared..it appears fine but just for 1 mins to 2 mins after that it switches back to no signal and emergency calls.... tested it to go online and it shows me no internet connections.
i tried to set up a new one and it shows me that there is no sim card ..i dunno what its is but i am pretty sure it isnt the sim card cos when i put in my sim card to my iphone 3gs it works fine...
Maybe you got a corrupt SIM-Card ... or your SIM is too old ...
Have you tried doing a full wipe? It solved many problems for me personally...
Hi thanks for the reply..
well it turns out the mother board inside the phone is the problem ..had to send back to where i purchase it and had them give me a new board..hmm now i am not sure what cause it.. i;m thinking it could be when i try to use other roms other then the stock ..but i am bend on trying other roms again lol the stock rom sucks at battery life ..lol thanks again for the help .. really appreciate it!!!
Cheers

[Q] Flashed phone now 3g not working

Hi I recently flashed my phone from Bada 1.0.2 to 2.0. I did different regions because the language pack doesnt matter too much to me. The problem now is all the 3g settings got wiped so I can make calls and all but the 3g internet does not work and I have no idea on the settings for them. My phone is an Israel Orange S8500. Anybody know how to help me ?
lol ofc nobody replied but I will do my job and update anyways. I think it might be a bada issue? Cause the 3g technically is working cause I did video calling which requires 3g as well as the email worked, and no I was not connected to wifi. Something fishy is goin on here lol and I would like help to figure it out...
did you check your network profile?
did you check your network profile in settings and manually enter your service provider's port address etc?

any help??
im on virgin in the uk
many thanks
alex
same here...returned to GB because of this
You may have to manually enter your mobile network settings, go to virgin mobiles website and search for manual settings in support section.
I'm with T-Mobile UK and data works perfect.
Good luck to you, and if you sort it, report back how you solved the issue.
I have set correct APN settings and when I enable data, E appears above signal indicator but it is grey which means no internet access ( blue is internet access)
network settings most likely... im on 3UK and no network problems here....although i have found that a few location based apps dont work...
yes i got it working the apn setting were from t-mobile which virgin shares their signal, manually enterted virgins and hey presto it works thanks for the help

APN Error?
Whenever I enter APN settings and save it, nothing happens. Nothing pops up in the APN menu.

[Q] emergency calls only, not registered on network

hi there, i have a problem after i flashed custom ROM, the phone gets singal, but said emergency calls only, it's able to search network and i can choose network, but when i try to make call, it said not registered on network, i tried to flash different modem but still not working, any clues about it?? (it shows valid IMEI and serial number, and baseband ver: n7100dxdmf1 network: telkomsel(my current provider) service state: out of service))
I am with the same problem. I bought a Galaxy s4 i9505 from Amazon and the phone has full signal on GSM network, but when I try to make a call appears the same message always... Not registered on network.
I flashed another ROM but the problem can not be fixed. I have read everything about this problem on Google and in this Forum, but no one fixed this problem. I am in Brazil now. Sometimes the phone works. Sometimes not. I am afraid if this could not be a hardware problem. If someone can help some people are with the same problem.
What I already did:
- checked the sim card in other phone and it works ok;
- flashed the original ROM for a brazilian ROM.
I do not know what to do anymore.

Locked phone that your problem,you must hack rom or search code and unlock your phone.
But the phone works sometimes. I do not understand a lot about it, but I thing that if the phone is locked it should not work anytime, or not?
Today I am with full signal on GSM network (and I can register in the network. In others days it was not possible) and it is working in my home. But when I go to other place outside and walk with the phone in the car it not works properly. In this case I just have none or one point of signal and the message of emergency calls appears again. :/ On WCDMA it works SOMETIMES too, but with one or two points of SIGNAL only. Do you think that it is because the phone is locked? By the way, it's the i9505 model. It should be unlocked. I bought it as an unlocked phone to work in Brazil. It is the international version.

One more information: the phone now is working ok with GSM network, but when I change for WCDMA I only got one or none point of signal. What it can be? :/

Hey.. there may be a problem with your network provider.. happened to me too...
I was using vodafone india and i had activated 3g on my n7100.. then i couldn't change to gsm mode. Then i chose another operator (airtel india) and now i can switch to gsm/wcdma irrespective of ny current data pack (2g or 3g)
