in my redmi1S if I turn on the GPS and my mobile internet is off, still time and again it deducts money from my main account balance. Why?
Should be operator issue !
As we don't have it , Try flashing stock ROM ROM again and see
Go to you nearest Network providers service centre and ask them I think its operator problem.

Off to France on Saturday and I'm dreading the automatic connection any tips of making sure my phone won't connect and cost me the earth currently on t mobile UK

Sure.
Go to settings - wireless and networks - mobile networks - untick the box that says data roaming and your phone will not use data whilst abroad.
Hope this helps.
Rik.
Or just hold down the power putton and choose the bottom option "Mobile Network" and this will completely disable the data connection.

I'm on t-mobile and have just had a great 2 weeks in France. Wherever I went I seemed to get a 'E' connection which was very good and fast enough for Google maps.
Cost me £10 for 50mb over 31 days but you can get 20mb for a fiver to use in 7 days
I use phone for work emails and found the French signal very good. I choose Orange sfr I think which had the best data signal.
Hope this helps
Only guaranteed method to avoid data charges is to call your carrier and ask them to DISABLE roaming on your sim, also to make a record of it on your account.
Even if you do somehow manage to enable data roaming on the phone the sim won't allow it.
Hi I am in the uk and on the orange network, since I received a text from orange saying that I could share the tmobile signal about a week ago I have hardly ever got a signal anymore, I thought sharing the network was supposed to make it better not worse.
I set everything up as it said and I spoke to the customer service department to check it was set up as it should be and they said it was, but the problem is still there whatever I do.
So I wondered if there was other people on here that used orange in the uk and if so what's your signal like?
And
What radio do you guys use to get the best reception?
Thanks

Are you still picking up the Orange signal? Or the joint Orange T Mobile one?
I have the same setup and my phone stays on Orange most of the time and only flips to the Orange/Tmo one when the Orange signal is rubbish.

I was going to try and merge my t-mobile signal but i remember
my friend told me that android specifically has problems with it.
anyway this is taken from t-mobile site, dunno if u tried it :
HTC Desire : How to enable the sending and receiving of messages while using the Orange signal
To enable the sending and receiving of messages whilst using the Orange signal, choose the following path from the home screen of the device:
Menu >
Settings >
Wireless & networks >
Mobile networks (Set options for roaming, networks, APNs)>
Ensure the box labelled “Connect to data services when roaming” has been checked, in the section labelled Data roaming.
and this might help? :
Known issues with Android phones not set to enable 'data roaming'
Android phones are set not to enable ‘data roaming’, so when you’re using an Orange signal:
You won’t be able to send or receive picture messages or browse the internet
You might get a message that says, ‘You have lost data connectivity’
If you receive a picture message or activate an internet page, you might get a warning message, ‘Generic network failure’ or ‘Unknown error’
You might see the ‘roaming’ icon (a triangle) whenever you’re using an Orange signal
You might see a message ‘Allow data roaming? You may incur significant charges!’ each time your phone picks up an Orange signal
When you pick up an Orange signal your phone will ask you: ‘Allow data roaming?’
What to do: Enable ‘Data roaming’ on your phone, but remember to disable it if you leave the UK to avoid charges.
What to do: We’re working on a special fix for you to download to your phone. Keep an eye on our Help & Support section for when it’s available.
Hi. I'll simply explain what happend.
I went by plane. I switch my phone on to airplane mode, but when I switch it back phone can't connect to my home network.
It detected networks and can connect to the internet but I can't make any call or recive it (the same with SMS).
It show Me the error message - Mobile Network Not Available or just simply Call ended after two beeps signal.
Show me yellow triangle on the top notification bar and message - No service, Selected network unavailable
I checked IMEI - it's correct
I used PC Companion tool to Repair My Phone - doesn't help
SIM card work well in other phone
other SIM cards - the same problem - not working (I even tryed SIM card from different country network operator).
Phone has no SIM lock
Back to factory settings doesn't solve the problem.
Any ideas what going on with my phone and how to fix it? Please
Model: D5503
Android version: 4.4.2
Build number: 14.3.A.0.757
So it did work before in your home network?
Or is it an issue with a new phone?
Sounds strange to me... If your SIM works in other phones, it can't be a provider issue.
I can't imagine that it is a software issue since it keeps happening after a factory reset.
If it's the hardware it is a warranty issue...
But maybe somebody has a suggestion for you.

I had some unusual problems with an inability to xfer data over the mobile network (as opposed to the WiFi) on my wife's Z1c, after both had been fitted with what seemed to be brand-new sim cards by the local T-Mobile store, and I found that in:
*Settings
*Wireless & Networks: More
*Mobile networks
*Access point names
...that she (somehow) had an access point name of "epic.t-mobile.com" as opposed to my APN of "fast.t-mobile.com"
So, I deleted that, and selected "create default APN", and fixed the problem.
There are other settings in that same menu, such as "preferred network type" that might be messing you up.
She could make calls and send texts with this problem, but had no internet unless she turned on WiFi.
But I cannot imagine what would be re-provisioned by switching airplane mode on and then off.
Perhaps you need to declare your sim card a dead parrot, and get a fresh one from your service provider.
This is pure speculation, I have no evidence or experience, just guessing at things that MIGHT cause such a symptom.
Hi Team,
I have purchsed a brand new Xperia Z1 from a retail store.
I am having problem with mobile network connectivity, its not behaving in normal manners.
Many times it drops network and many times it gets auto switch off in a single day and I need to restart it 2-3 times in a single day to make it work properly.
Many times it happens that its showing full network strength and when somebody calls me it says that this number doesn't exist, this is not a simcard issue as my sim is working perfectly when I use it in any other mobile.
I have already given it to sony service center two times and they use to say that softwer was required to be updated that's why you were having network problem but its not resolved yet.
Its is very costly mobile phone and as of now I can't afford to buy any new phone as I have spent my whole savings to buy this phone.
Can you please help me?
Thanks in advance.

Solution:
I struggled for 2 days to resolve this. And the solution was so simple. I resolved the issue accidentally.
Besides following all the recommendations (except the hardware part) on different online forums I was exhausted. Doing nothing, I started making a backup of my cell phone with an idle mind. And there I found an option to reset your network. I have Sony Xperia Z3 Dual. You should try this.
Go to Settings -> Back up and Reset
Scroll down
Go to "Network Settings Reset".
Then reset your cellular network. And bingo. It worked for me. I was able to make calls and use my cellphone in normal mode.
Please let me know if it worked for you. I can guide you for some more tricks.
hello everyone
so i've recently bought lg g3 phone model LGLS990
everything works just fine until i go into mobile networks and change the preferred network to LTE
when i do that i lose my phone signal and all i can do is emergency calling, it's like there is no sim card inserted anymore
and when that happens i can't even change the preferred network to gsm again
but before i've done that i could've used phone for calling and messaging and internet but internet wastes my credit tho i've got a data plan and it's way too slow
i think this is related to my threat each time i turn on the phone a dialog box appears says: "hands free activation contacting network"
a couple of seconds then it fails and there is an option that says activate when ever i click it, it tries to reach my mobile network provider i suppose but then it fails too showing this message: "Sorry - we experienced a system problem during your task. please dial *2 from your Sprint phone or call Customer Care at 1-888-211-4727 from another phone to complete your task."
**im pretty sure that the sim is okay since i use it on my old galaxy s3 phone and i use 3g just fine
**i've tried to change the preferred network to all of the options listed
**i bought it new but the seal wasn't on the box tho it couldn't be used i guess since the screen sticker was on it
**the one i bought it from have brought it from another country but it's not shown that the phone is locked, i've never used a phone with a locked sim so i really don't know how is it like :/
**when ever i open sim toolkit i find the network provider's name there but when i click on it it keeps loading and nothing happens
**the android version is kitkat 4.4.2
sorry for any language mistake and sorry for my modest knowledge
please reply asap so i can try to contact the guy i bought the device from and try to get back my money if it's unsolvable issue
thanks in advance
Hi, I have a problem with my mobile provider, since last month 2 available provider in Italy unified the network. I am pledged with one of them which is "3 ITA", wich is, the main provider of both. The second provider is "I WIND".
3 ITA users goes roaming with "I WIND" when signal strength is low and this is ok, it's free and we like it. The problem is when you turn back in the first provider covered zone, but my phone keep having "I WIND" unless I manually select using settings tab the network wich I want "3 ITA 4G". I am requesting a mod/app or anything else (I have root) wich can block directly the change of mobile network. For example if 3 ITA signal is poor I don't want it roam in I WIND, any ideas?
Thank you for any reply!
