*SOLVED* Can't get any 3G Signal

I un-rooted my phone, re-rooted it and flashed back to CM 3.9.1 and I can now get 3G just fine. Although I'm still unsure what caused this to happen in the first place. I really hope it's not hardware based...
Anyway, working again now!
Hello Everyone!
For the past 2 days I've been having problems with getting a 3G Signal. Whenever the phone is set to use 3G networks, there will be no signal.
But once I switch to "use 2G only" I can connect to Edge just fine.
I've experienced this problem before a month ago or so, and it went away, but I'd like to know if anyone else has had this happen before and knows how to fix it.
P.s. I'm in a 3G area so I should be getting 3G 100% of the time.
Thanks
EDIT: I'm on Cyanogen 3.6.8.1 and T-Mobile Germany. Switched to other Rom but the problem persists, So it's not an issue with the Rom.

Take a look in your APN list.
What's in there??

Already did that. Only one provider is listed in the APN list.
T-Mobile D (the one I use).

Did you actually go into that apn and check the settings to see if they are correct?
Seems like you are on CM 3.6.5???
I went into mine and the detailed apn settings where incorrect, even though the apn was T-Mobile (USA)

Tried them both, and it's not working
Weird thing is, sometimes I can't get a signal at all, not even EDGE. I'm puzzled...

I just flashed CM 3.9.1 today and noticed that for a few seconds I was able to get 3G, it then went away to having no signal at all...Could there be a problem with the hardware?
But that seems very unlikely to me since this happened out of nowhere, and the phone never took any physical damage.

Question: No DATA on US ATT Unlocked Eurospec

Just got my Note straight from the UK, unlocked. Been on the phone with ATT about 6 times. I can send and recieve calls, texts - but no DATA. They can't seem to figure out why it will not pick up the ATT Data Network. Sim, EIN all linked, but no joy.
I am a noob, sorry - any ideas. I hate to send the phone back.
Any ideas ?
Update - Funk2641's response below (no APN was entered) - fixed it the issue.
Still, ATT would not give me a 4G smartphone plan - even though the H+ shows up next to the clock ? Initial Speedtests look like the same as my Infuse, Atrix and 4S.
Thanks everybody (Funk2641) for your help ! I hope this thread saves some agony for many as this phone is hitting the states. Don't know if I will tread in Eurospec for the Nexus, as I will want to hold that one in my hand first.
Also, this is a great phone - speed, battery life and the screen is fantastic !

No, I will give it a try.
Thx.

please keep posted.....I'll be on Att Friday

I will follow this thread since I will also switch from T-mobile to AT&T.

I too have the same issues. I actually used a few different apns and got edge to work poorly, I sighed and told myself ICS would fix it all up better and to just enjoy the extra battery life of 2g now, God I hope a get this cleared up

Technically, the Note is just a big SGS2. There's no reason on the phone side you should be having a problem using the Cingular APN. I'm using a ISGS2 and a UK 3G Tab 10.1 on AT&T with no problem. It's either something with the provisioning of your account or your Note may not have the right bands (Asian?). The latter is unlikely if you ordered it from the UK. Try reseting the APN to default under network settings. Also, if you're on a legit 4G plan there's a specific APN that you can find on the ASGS2 forum.

Here is another APN that works, I had the same issue
For APN settings use the name ATT and then for APN the word phone. Leave everything else blank-what is needed will get filled in automatically. Click the APN when you finish adding it and the radio button turns green to indicate it is working. The advantage to this APN setting is it gives you clear access and data speeds are not limited by ATT.

Those apns didn't work and I too a would doubt my phone bring the Asian version,.this version of gingerbread has the option to suspend my data network from holding down the power button maybe the software isn't...... I don't know I have no clue but my apns are normal but when's search they don't come up
In the list automatically so something a wrong
and I came from a hspa+ phone so my plan is already to go, I called to double check

to op, glad you got it straightened out...who did you order from and how much?

My phone came with no apn settings. It was from europe ( ? Polish )
I had to manually enter the settings.

I am on the iphone plan with unlimited data, worked just fine in galaxy tab original 7"

i tried using funks apn settings and i still have nothing, i came from an atrix where i always got H+ and now here are me speeds, my speed test was done in detroit, i live in NJ my ping was 317, U 144 kbps D 155 kbps, i have no idea what is wrong with this phone but att can get going on it, i called and they have nothing for me!!! i dont know what to do

What plans are you guys, please?
(Anyone on month to month $50 unlimited?

There are two different APNs to use depending on what data plan you're on. If you're using a MediaNet or Data for non-Smartphones plan (3G) you need to use the Cingular APN. If you're on a legit 4G plan you need to use the special APN for 4G phones. If you reverse it, you'll get no data. For those of you on the 4G plan, go in to the APN settings. When you press menu, there's a reset to default option. It should pull the 4G settings down automatically. If you're on a 3G plan don't do this and instead manually enter the below settings. If you do this correctly you should get data. If you have a quad-band phone and still can't get data it's something with your account settings and not the h/w.

[Q] Unlocked Samsung Captivate won't download MMS, even with the carrier correct APN,

Hello,
I have a Samsung i896 Captivate, which was originally with Rogers. I purchased it from a cell store second hand and unlocked. I am with Virgin Mobile. I have spoken to them about my issue that the MMS will not download. They say they're down loading but then never finish and eventually expire. Even as I added the APN according to the instructions from VIrgin, nothing has changed. Still not down loading MMS. They say that because the phone was not originally with Virgin they can't do anything about it. Is there anything I can do to get my MMS downloading even with my unlocked phone??? Please help and thank you for reading.

When you entered your APN, did you delete all the others first?
Being unlocked doesn't change much other than you can use it on any carrier. Did you check with them to see if they locked your MMS?
Also, MMS can only be downloaded on data (can't use wifi).

Thank you for your reply BWolf56! So I haven't checked with Rogers to see if they lock their MMS as they are not my carrier. (they were the original phone owners carrier) If I call them do you think they'll assist me even if I am not thier client?
When I entered the APN there were no previous APN entered so none to delete.
I turned off the Wifi and then turned my phone on and off, just to see if that made a difference...I don't even know what to expect will happen if I do find a fix. Will my pending (NOT expired) MMS be able to be down loaded?
Would you have any other suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I really want to receive these messages before they expire and am getting kind of desperate. Thanks again.

Locked MMS would come from your current carrier so you would have to ask them.
Although, if you were on Wifi this entire time, it's normal it didn't work. As I mentioned earlier, you need to be on your data (3G/H) to download MMS. You should be able to redownload the pending ones, just hold over the MMS and hit redownload.

Out of curiosity, did you set two APN's? By the looks of it, there are two for Virgin - one for default and one for mms. I had the worst time doing a Rogers apn setup and eventually had to go to the default one and put default,text,mms,...etc for the type. Virgin might work the same. If you already have figured your problem out, then sorry for a late reply.

There's also a LTE one and couple others but aren't needed on our phone.
So yeah, Virgin should have something similar to those. And of course, gotta be on data (3G)

Let's hope that's all it is, I couldn't help but notice that the reference was "APN" instead of "APN's". I'm just finishing work on a Captivate and happen to have a Virgin acct so I'll try it shortly and see

Oh my. I am so sorry, I didnt even get close to trying my virgin acct on the captivate I was working on. The customer was hovering to get it back, so sorry for misleading. How did you make out ElleJay? did you finally get your unit going?

i had a similar problem a few months back and sporadically since. i talked to rogers and was advised to go into apn type and edit it to say - internet,mms instead or default,supl,mms
try it and exit then go back in and make sure it stuck. for some reason it takes more than one try sometimes.
hope that helps

Remember, they bought with rogers as original, but are trying to setup virgin...but yeah, the overall consencus is that they may be missing an apn setting and "of course, gotta be on data (3g)" lol. Now just more concerned as to whether its up and running.

[Q] gobbling up data

Just came from the rezound, upgraded to HTC one. The phone is only a week old, all stock, the data doesn't seem to be working right. Always getting connection timeout or just sits there, arrows on top don't even light up. I've gone thru 4 gigs in less than a week and I haven't done anything. Everything is unsynced and background data is restricted. Called Verizon and got some girl who wouldn't do anything but have me take out the SIM card. Any fix or any suggestions? I can also still return the phone, I'm still under the 14 day trial.

[Q] Exclamation point, No mobile data, Lollipop

I updated my phone to Lollipop and now I have no mobile data, and it now always says "HOME" under the signal bars, and has an exclamation point to the right of the signal bars, I can make and receive calls however.
I have tried:
Deleting my APN and typing in a new one.
Used the "Network operators" to select a network, - it shows "HOME" and "AT&T", I have tried both, and "Choose automatically".
Removing my sim card, both rebooting with out a sim, and removing the sim and re-inserting with the phone running.
Removing my SD card, and rebooting with it removed.
Wiping the cache.
Factory reset.
Reboot in safe mode.
My boot loader is locked, no root, and I use Straight Talk.
This post lists the steps I took to update to Lollipop, as I had a Consumer Cellular version of the Moto G 2014.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59470751&postcount=114
Is there anyway to fix this without unlocking the boot loader?
If I have to unlock the boot loader, what steps would fix the problem?
Thanks.

I needed a working phone for today, and decided to unlock my bootloader and install a ROM, I decided on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/rom-titan-prime-romversion-1-0-beta-t3048786
unfortunately the problem remains, so what now?
I am thinking I may have to go back to KitKat

Are you absolutely sure you have the APN right? I have an XT1064 with Consumer Cellular on AT&T's network. I'm running Titan Rom Lollipop and I was having similar problems until I fixed the APN. Also, I've never even had to look at Network Operators setting to get data.

That's the APN I've always used. CC gave me 2 APN'S once, one for Data and one for MMS which I promptly ignored and combined both into one.

I had got the phone from eBay, and did a factory restore before I used it, and then installed my Straight Talk SIM and finished setting up the phone and replaced the "TFDATA" default APN with the Straight Talk APN, I did notice both APNs looked the same except the for name, I had believed at the time that the reason why both APNs were the same was that somehow the APN was stored on the SIM and recovered by the phone.
Yep, it looks like the APN I had to switch to seems to be almost exactly the same as Consumer Cellular's APN
