Had my desire since Thursday April 1st, on T-Mobile, my first android phone so just getting to grips with it...
Today it won't connect to mobile network for data, I can make calls ok, just not browse web or use anything that requires a network connection like google maps or e-mail, there is no G or H or 3G in the menu bar, just a signal strength indicator, Mobile Network is enabled in settings btw, before you ask!
I still have my Touch Diamond 2 and the sim works fine in that for data so not a T-Mobile Issue I don't think, my O2 Sim (from Diamond 2) works fine in TD2 and not in Desire also...
Think it may have had it, was working fine Thursday to Today...
I've tried restoring to factory settings from the Privacy Menu entry and that has made no difference (incidentally, the restore from backup it offered me didn't appear to restore anything, no contacts etc carried over... so won't rely on that again either)
Is this anything typical for Android or have I just got a freak phone
Any help gratefully received or I'll have to get it swapped.
EDIT: Perhaps should point out that my Desire is not T-Mobile Branded/SIM Locked, it's from Carphone Warehouse, so is running unbranded HTC Rom (OTA Firmware update installed on first day within about 2 hours of getting phone)

Same thing happing to me all day, my phones also from CPW I cant get on the web or youtube or Google the Beeb or applications or anything else online All working ok since last week when I got it apart from it been very hit and miss conecting to anything online.
@popkid, T-mobile usually send mobile data & MMS settings by SMS as soon as you insert your SIm into a new phone. If this did not happen visit the T-mobile support site, there is a page where you can provide your mobile number and T-mobile will send you the settings.

My phone was bought from CPW on a T-Mobile contract, the sim I am using is a T-Mobile sim from my HDT HD2 which I had only 2 weeks ago, the sim was working fine in the HD2, the sim I received with the Desire was given to my Mam. I've been on the T-Mobile site and entered my number but when the choose your phones appears the HTC Desire is not there.

Settings were working just fine Thursday to Yesterday... it just stopped working for data overnight, got it to work for about 10 mins earlier after another factory reset, but then the H in menu bar disappeared again, O2 sim doesn't work for data in the Desire either... T-Mobile and O2 sims both work fine in my TD2, definitely seems to be a problem with the Desire itself or the ROM on it at least
On rebooting with new sim the desire asks for network and says it is configuring, but once you get to the social networking bit it says it can't connect to the network and to enable mobile data settings... (which are already enabled) I didn't get a text from T-Mobile when I first had phone btw.

Well it's all of a sudden started working for me, must just be a server problem I think, no doubt it will revert back to being very slow or not conecting again tomorrow
popkid:
I read somewhere, try to turn on then off the flight mode.
That could trigger the phone to activate the mobile network.
Otherwise, I suggest to give HTC a call.
Working... Finally
Tracked down the issue with mine... I think anyway, seems to be randomly deleting the APN info from the Mobile Network Settings, if I notice that I have no network and go to that page it is empty... reselect the network I'm on and it sorts itself out, no idea why they are being erased though!
Definitely not a server issue for me as the SIM works in my other phone when not working in desire...

Sorry - wrong post for thread.
[Q] LTE SIM inserted, but "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services" message shows
Hi,
I'm in the Philippines. I bought a Note N7105 last week (not from my provider) and installed 4.1.2 with baseband N7105DXDLL1. All good until a few days ago I received my LTE card from GLOBE Telcom.
Now I have a problem. I can make calls and send SMS using the card but when I try to enable data services it tells me "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services", and will not enable data or let me see anything under "Mobile Networks".
I have tried a different Globe LTE SIM card (my son's) and the same thing happens.
If I put this LTE SIM into my Galaxy S II (Baseband = I9100XXLPX), it runs fine (but 3G of course). So it's not a faulty SIM card.
I was wondering if the problem might be the modem ? Any ideas ?
Globe runs LTE Band 1800
thanks
Could it be the modem ?

Looks like apn related

Have you try changing network mode under settings - wireless (more) - mobile network - network mode
If you set it to utms/wcdma doest it works?
(Sorry I just assuming and here in India we don't have lte and never seen menu of mobile network in lte version)

When the SIM is inserted, the whole mobile settings menu becomes unavailable, because the phone thinks no SIM is inserted (even though calls and SMS works).
UtkarshGupta suggests its the APN not the modem so I'll look into that too.
For now, I have a new problem - the SIM slot is broken, due to using one of those stupid Nano adapters, because my provider does not have micro SIMs. So until I get that replaced, I can't try anything !
Re: [Q] LTE SIM inserted, but "Insert SIM Card to access Data Services" message shows
Yeah could be modem as well

Hi
I'm from the philippines just as you. I'm also using globe's LTE and recently have bought a note 2 (N7105). My note 2 works perfectly. But a few days ago, my friend who was interested in getting the same phone that I have, decided to buy one. We went to the same store hot gadgets to buy another phone exactly like mine N7105. We encountered the same problem as you. All other simcards would work except for my Globe LTE sim. It seems like its a new batch of note 2s from their supplier abroad. What i noticed about the new batch that arrived is that it was previously locked to a foreign network and just unlocked. the box also has a "cityzi" logo which is a carrier in france. the seller claims that all their units are locked and just unlocked.
but i believe that the batch i got was factory unlocked in the first place because there is no logo on the box and no logo when starting up and turning off the phone.
I have a feeling that it may be a firmware related problem. what i would like to ask if you have tried updating the phone to the current DMC3 firmware. you can read up about it.
there is a forum on tipid cp on n7105 sadly im just a new user on xda so i cant post the link. just search for it.
if you check sammobile.com there is an n7105 firmware for the philippines. im not sure if flashing it with this new firm ware would fix the problem. i flashed my phone with it and it worked fine but im not sure if a previously locked phone would create problems when updating firmware. maybe some people in the forum could help. thanks.

This is an English only forum. Ask in English if you want an answer. Also, this section is for the Note 2. Ask again in the S3 section, in English.
Worked like a charm. Thanks!
big thanks to this thread! i had problems with my N7105 from HK as well but now it works fine on Globe LTE!
only problem i encountered was downloading the file which was 1GB, kept failing to download until this morning hehehe. :highfive:
Hi everyone. Might there be a torrent for the firmware file? Download keep terminating on my side. Thanks guys
Hi!
First I want to thank you for pointing out that only XXDMC3 will work with GLOBE LTE.
I think it is the SIM card itself because I have an AT&T i317 Galaxy note 2. First I wasn't able to get it to work. Same issues with you. Can call, text, but will not allow me to access mobile services.
I also tried flashing it with the modem from here (XXDMC3 (Philippines / Globe) N7105DXDMC1_modem_GLB) you can use this modem if you have the N7105
I misread the instructions and had a bootloop. But was able to reflash the stock AT&t firmware.
So instead of going that route, I downloaded this International ROM for ATT Galaxy note 2 As it is already XXDMC3 baseband.
It works very well. But I still have to wait for the activation of my LTE to see if that really works. But now I can access the menu's and H+ works on my phone.
This is using the Stock AT&T Modem.
I hope this helps folks with international phones and want it to work with GLOBE LTE.. =)
This firmware works fine with globe, but not so sure about Smart. A Smart prepaid SIM works fine, but a postpaid SIM does not work at all, not even for calling / texting. Smart are unable to explain why this would be the case. They made up some BS story about the phone being locked to Globe (a 7105 International edition !!) I was not able to test it fully because I sold the phone, so I can't say for sure it was a firmware issue. But we tried several Smart postpaid SIMS and all did not work. Just throwing it out there.
I am unable to make or receive call & unable to make or receive SMS after inserting working Airtel carrier Indian network micro sim onto my Note 10.1 2014 32gb SM-P601 3g model. I got sms from Airtel asking me to save internet configuration & access points. But latter when I dial 121 to Airtel call center for test call it gave "Not register on network" message on screen.
I have attached screen shot & short printed note received with the box. What does that note mean?
Please help how register on network?
Also is this problem related to my old problem, here is link.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658661 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658661
Please help me out xda forum.
Suddenly problem was solve, restarted couple of times. Then network identified new device & my sim was register on network.
So this problem is solved all by myself.
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
I got an S8+ T-mo at Best buy and now I don't have mobile net. The status bar saying LTE, but nothing. I can make calls. That is it.
All I did is to take the sim card out of the S6 and put it into this one. All the settings are correct.
Any advice?
Yup...wrong sim.
