Okay, So I just received my Zen 2 about a week ago, It's rooted and BL unlocked and running stock .22 with nothing removed, I can make and receive calls and all in all everything working great, but it seems that no matter what I try I cannot seem to get any data, I have tried everything I know how to do and can never get a reading for data network, I have tried doing the network select thing to no avail, have driven all over town and nothing, I have never before been able to receive and make calls but unable to get a data connection, so I am looking for suggestions, I haven't gone to any other cities, but have used data here with other phones. Thanks
It may be asking the obvious but you do have your sim in sim 1 and not sim 2?

SIM 1
Have you checked that the APN for your telco is all correct?
Sent from my ASUS_Z00ADA using Tapatalk
Have not but wouldn't that also effect calls if wrong?
I looked up the APN and entered the details and it did in fact correct my data connection, Thanks for the help

Glad you got it solved.

Are both boxes for data checked? Have you rebooted? Did you flash a kernel?

I have no idea. But a guess would be due to the fact the iPhone SIM is not an LTE SIM. AKA, not compatible with your phone.
Yes need a new sim card. If not in LTE area you can use the HSDPA APN and get 3g speeds.
Sim won't matter, if your coming from an iPhone and didn't change your plan changes are if you look on your s3 its trying to use PTA but you aren't setup for it yet. If you change it to WAP or PHONE it should work or call att change your plan then PTA will work

The answer to this question is simple...and you could have easily searched to find the answer....iphone needs iphone data plan gs3 needs lte data plan...the mini sim is standard...there isnt a special iphone sim etc....next time try searching.....

Call at&t and tell them to switch you to a lte plan. Done.

Ah, makes sense. I thought it would at least get 3G service but i guess not. No worries. Ill call them today.
You should be getting at least 3g. Check your apn settings.

How about even simpler .. if phones are locked.. ATT locks phones to sim card and it won't work with a different one unless you unlock it.

You DO need a new sim card. This happened to my friend a few days ago.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
IPhone and androids use a different data plan. You need to get switched to an android data plan.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
If your sim is blue and white, you need a new one. If it's orange, your fine. Just call and have them switch you from the I phone data to the lte data plan.

I have a blacklisted phone from the states. I bought it on craigslist it worked with his sim when I bought it. after I bought it days later the old owner black listed it. I have since moved to costa rica. so I am now on kobie. the phone has had many in different roms in it. it is unlocked and rooted. with a know good sim. ( one that works fine in my att note 2) I get internet but no calls. What could be wrong? I have returned it to a stock rom that is rooted. the imei is the same as on the sticker.
anyone? I really need this phone
Is WiFi calling turned on? If so turn it off and see if that helps.

no change
That's odd. Usually it's data that doesn't work. Maybe try a factory reset and Odin flashing the Stock firmware?

tried every thing. still not registering. data fine. no voice
Go to "System Settings" then "Wireless & Networks" then "More..." then"Mobile Networks" then "Network Operators", it will search then display all available networks, choose your provider or "Choose Automatically", it should then display "Registered on Network" toast notification. If it does not you might need to call your provider and get help from them. Kolbi might have ties with T-Mobile and it is blacklisted with them as well.
Hi
i have just purchased one of these bad boys in the 4g flavour but my carrier is 3 mobile so data is blocked as my sim is a phone sim and not a data sim
so anyone in UK can you please tell me what network you are on where you get full data calls and text
Much appreciated
Thanks
Lee
Hi Lee. Isn't it just a regular sim? Is it on contract or payg?

I am on three mobile one plan.....I am looking for a payg sim that I can put in my note 8 amd get calls text and data.....I can get calls and text but data is too important to forego

You can put in the phone Sim card with no problems. If you need to manually enter the apn, it's three.co.uk.
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk
APN is already set to three.co.uk
I also have a letter H+ with data arrows flashing up and down
Not a huge response to my query, all I am asking is anyone using a note 8.0 as a phone.
I can go with watever network allows phone sim to work in a tablet but it will cost me a top up to find out who will work
Thanks for your help

If it's unlocked, then all sim cards should work. I've used it with a 3 sim and also a virgin mobile sim.

Not all sims....example my 3 mobile phone sim on their 1 plan....I am now with o2 on a 1gig sim onky conteact....so far calls text and data are working fine....hopefully it will stay working

My friend got a phone from T-Mobile s3 few weeks ago and unlocked it to use it here in Canada in mobilicity network. But it has like 0 reception it gets reception for few mins than goes to 0 bars. Is it a radio issue or something else? Any help would be greatly Appreciated. Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Are you sure the unlock was successful? Im not sure how it works in Canada but could it be blacklisted?
While it shows signal does it work for calls and data?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
Yes unlock was successful and recognize the network. Gets reception you can make call after few mins loses it and goes to 0 it's not blacklisted as it was purchased outright from the retail store. Right now there is no Sim card on phone and it shows 4 bars.
and for some reason this is the newest s3 i think cause usually its t999v this one say t999l

You might need a new sim card. And the T999V is only sold by the Canadian carriers. The T999L is the updated lte model of the original T999.
After unlocking were you able to use a sim from another carrier and have it work with zero issues? If you only tested it on the network you are reporting problems with that is not confirmation of a successful unlock. Try a sim from another carrier and see if it works.
If it is unlocked then it sounds like an old sim card type issue.

just tried my sim card same issue and we tried with 2 other brand new sim card from ssame provider. i just flashed this March 2014 - 4.3 JellyBean - New!
Note: This is based off of the stock image TMO T999LUVUBNC1
Download :: Download - root66_TMO-L_T999LUVUBNC1.7z through odin thought it might be radio issue but same thing.
her daughter has the same s3 with 4.1.2 and works perfect. can i downgrade through odin to 4.1.2? i think md5 modem might be better.
Unfortunately no. Once you flash 4.3 there is no going back. If its not working with any of the sim cards, try one from another carrier if possible.
Kinda sounds to me like its not unlocked. How did you go about attempting to get it unlocked?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
She will come to pick the phone today I'll ask how did she unlock the phone. But if it wasnt unlocked how does it recognize the Sim? Can you suggest me a modem? But I will ask how she unlock it and let you know. Also when I flash the new 4.3 it didn't erase the call history and also when I reset the phone it doesn't seem like it resets it cause the call history's are still there.

You can only use the 4.3 modems now. When you flash firmware it doesnt erase your data. Not sure why it didnt on a factory reset though, unless its stored on sd.

Tmobile user here, no matter if I am on WiFi or LTE the phone randomly gets stuck on searching for network and nothing will function. Any thoughts?
do a factory reset
Could be a bad SIM too
I have this problem with the ATT version. It won't take the apn that came with the phone. It searches for network for a while and then when it finds it, there is still no data.

Try this. In Settings>More>Mobile Networks, set it to CDMA or GSM only.
So just don't use the setting that has LTE in it.
