I put my T-Mobile phone SIM card into the galaxy tab. It connected to 3G network as usually, but this time no matter what website i go to, it just keep showing me the My T-Mobile Login page. I put the sim back to the phone and everything work perfect. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Google "t-mobile redirect". You will find the process.

Just purchased a used Tmobile dell streak 7. It is stock and has been reset to all factory settings. The wifi works and everything looks to be ok. I got a tmobile sim card with a 2gig mobile broad band data plan. I know the sim is good and activiated because it works just fine in my buddy's stock tmobile g slate. When I insert it in the streak it recognizes the sim card and restarts but I cant use the interent via the sim. I went through the settings like the user manual says and turned off the wifi, I searched for networks and selected "Tmobile", then it says "registered on network" but no 4g/3g icon show up in the right corner. I just get the wireless bars with an x? I am new to tablets so maybe there is something that I am missing? I need to figure this out today because the guy I purchased it from gave me 24 hrs to try to get it working or I could just get my money back. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jared
anyone? Im running out of time here... I tried my at&t sim out of my iphone and it instantly wanted a "special code" which was expected. Could somebody have tried to enter a code too many times while using a tmobile sim card and somehow locked out the tmobile capability?

You need to call T-Mobile customer service, or go into a T-Mobile store, and have them activate the SIM card for the tablet. They have to be tied together.
EDIT: Activate it for THAT specific tablet.
is that true for all tmobile tablets because the sim works fine in a tmobile g slate and the card was not tied to that tablet in any way, but I will try

It just occurred to me that the wireless bars with an x over it could also means that someone has removed or renamed the phone.apk & telephony.apk. I don't have a t-mobile DS 7 so I cannot be certain of this, but you can check it out for yourself. Use a file manager program and go to the directory /system/app and look to see if phone.apk and telephony.apk has been renamed or removed. I have the DS7 wifi edition, and I removed these 2 app so that the DS7 does not drain the battery. My DS7 has the wireless bars with an x over it because I have removed those 2 app.
If ya need those files let me know and ill put em up..im stock t-mo rooted...
just got my streak and ill be around now

I have a problem with my Galaxy Mini. Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is only ONE version of the Galaxy Mini just different firmware, correct? Here's my problem, my phone is stuck on EDGE when its supposed to be on UMTS.. My GF and I both have the same phone, when I put my SIM in her phone I automatically get "H" and I rarely see "3G" (which is good). But when I put the SIM in my phone I ONLY get EDGE "E". Hers is from my countrys carrier and I got mine locally from a retailer unlocked (European Version). This is why I'm confused, if both phones are the same specs and everything why cant I get 3G/UMTS? I later found out we had different firmwares so I flashed mine with the same firmware as hers and still have the same problem. Could it be that I need to flash my Phone Modem with another one? (Idk..) All answers appreciated, Im desperate
Check if you don't have "Use only 2G networks" ticked.
Under mobile network connection there exist an option to only use 2g connections.
Take a look at. If the box is checked then unchecked it to use umts connections.
By the way. H connection is better than 3G.

I'd also like the point out that I'm computer savvy, I dont have "2G Network Only" checked
Maybe you can try to enter *#*#4636#*#* in the phone. You will get to Testing menu, choose Phone Information and then scroll down, there's an option like 'set preferred network' down there and you can choose WCDMA Only. Hope it helps...

Tried that, I get no signal at all with that option
I am trying to get the 3G working on my Galaxy Tab.
I have tried this SIM unlock - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843323, even though it seemed successful it still does not appear that it recognizes the SIM.
I re-stocked the device back to Overcome and the device still will not work with the SIM. I have tried setting the APN when JB was installed however that still did not work, the APN did not save.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this going?
Cheers!

You have the separate the issue logically.
Is the SIM working, it is found, it found the network, has signal, can make calls and receive call. Can SMS and receive SMS, no 3G but has edge?
If that is the issue, no amount of unlocking will help. APN will help probably.
So what is your problem again?

1. SIM is working - tried in my Galaxy Nexus and found a signal.
2. SIM was bought from a store - pre-paid.
3. See 1. (network & signal)
4. See 1. (make/receive calls)
5. See 1. (send/receive SMS).
6. SIM gave 3G network coverage
The Galaxy Tab simply says "no SIM found" however reboots when adding/removing SIM (with gingerbread 2.3, Overcome 4)
I should have rephrased.
When i said SIM working, i wasn't talking about the SIM. I should have said is the SIM working in the tab. Then the rest of the question also about in the tab.
Ok. Not detected. No point trying apn.

If it makes any difference I have used a SIM in the tablet before, it was a while ago and it was before I wiped back to Overcome 4. Back when I was using ICS/JB [not sure which].
So the tab is definitely capable of SIM usage.
Anyone have any idea? Would really appreciate it.

Hi guys,
I'm having network connection problems I recently purchased my RAZR I, was informed it was unlocked,
however when I insert my 3 sim, I get the message " Cannot connect to network at this time, please try again later" !
The phone doesn't display any sim error messages, I've purchased a 16 digit unlock code, in case its locked,
but am unable to enter it into the phone as no error screens pop up, I've tried android codes which are
supposed to "call" the "enter code"scene, but without success.
I can't find a working code for the "engineer mode" either....
I've changed radio mode to "gsm only" (I'm in the UK)...
I've rebooted, factory reset....etc etc
Phone info screen states... Network unconnected
GPRS. off
I'm at a loss... How do I remove the "little red triangle", emergency calls only & connect to a network so I can use the phone.

Which software is installed?
Which provider do you try to use?
Is the sim card working in an other phone?
If you manually search for a network, do you get any choice?
Phone is running stock ROM ... Jelly bean.
I'm trying to use my Three Network sim which works fine in other phones.
I've manually searched networks... Results show 3, Vodophone, o2 & Orange... Selecting 3 brings up same "cannot connect at this time...." message.
I've checked APN settings, they're as they should be !
Thanks for quick response...

Which exact software is running? Please the full image string.
That would show for which country/continent the phone is setup. Maybe you also just need to call Three Network and ask if they see some error on their side.
Stats are as follows...
System version
91.2.29001.XT890.Retail.in.GB
Android
4.1.2
Kernel version
3.0.34-g261995f
[email protected]))
Build number
9.8.21-50_SMI-29.1359955748
As the phone won't register on the network, Three are unable to test the connection ! Plus my sim works in all my other phones.
The RAZR I is reading the sim as my contacts import to the phone, so I don't think the sim jacket is at fault either....
Hope this helps...

Oh ! I've also checked the IMEI number online & as far as I can tell its not blocked...
Come on guys any ideas.....
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
No idea now. It could be a broken phone or a broken sim. Maybe one metal contact on the SIM is broken, or something like that.
I've been in touch with Motorola, there answer is a factory reset.... I've tried a few sims and all are recognised ( the associated APN loads every time...) but still no network connection. I've also checked the antenna connections to ensure contact is being made....
Could this be a software issue? The phone is rooted, can I use ADB to alter IMEI ?
Thanks in advance...

Hey all. Recently purchased an LG G Flex. (With a clean esn). I purchased an unlock code so I could use it on T-Mobile, but when I go to the menu to input the code, its says something about Not Yet Personalized. I read that this meant that the phone was already unlocked. Anyhoo. I put in my tmobile sim card and it sees that a sim card is inserted. It even shows my phone # in the about menu. However, I can not manage to get signal. The signal bar shows no bars and a little refresh circle thingy. I tried my sisters T-Mo sim card and had no luck either. One time I did manage to get a signal but lost it. When I go to find a network it see's T-Mobile LTE but gives me an error when I try to connect to it. I have already entered APN settings but this did not help.
Can one of y'all folks help?
It would be greatly appreciated.
