Please HELP! AT&T service is gone after Overcome Flash - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have the ATT Galaxy Tab Model SGH-i987 That I just flashed with Overcome 4.0.0 exactly per the instructions provided by Alterbridge86 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981 I checked and double checked each step before proceeding and even installing the "AT&T JK3 Modem.bin file in Odin as instructed.
Everything went smooth and everything seems to work including WiFi except, I have no AT&T data service at all. No Edge, no 3G, no H, nothing... :crying:
Thanks,
Tom

I also noticed that all my AT&T apps and widgets are gone even though I did a backup with Titaniun Backup as instructed.

well, if you backup, you need to restore.
But be aware that Overcome is GB based, your AT&T stuff is Froyo based.
You may not get it restored and working properly.
Now, do you have WiFi? As in not AT&T cellular. the 802.11g thing.
Can you make call and send sms?
what does it say under baseband in the phone info?

Thanks for the reply... I restored what the overcome instructions told me to back up however, none of the AT&T apps or widgets where among them. My impression based on the instructions for the Overcome Flash was that my AT&T AT&T data plan would work. Out of the instructions I quote " The Overcome ROM/Kernel is intended for GSM-based Samsung GAlaxy Tabs Only! (GT-P1000/T-Mobile*/AT&T*/Telstra* Tabs Only) * Please use the appropriate modems when flashing!
Later it says to flash with the JK3 Modem.bin file which I did. Like I said, I followed the instructions exactly checking each step before proceeding. I had NO errors or hang ups in the installation and everything PASSED and is working fine except that I have no AT&T data service.
WiFi works on my home network. Here is the info requested:
Model Number now says: GT-P1000 before upgrade it was SGH-i987
Baseband Version is now: I9000UGK3 before upgrade it was I987UCK1
Kernel version is now: 2.6.357 Overcome-v4.0.0 #40 before upgrade it was 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build Number is now: Overcome 7 Series v4.1.0 before upgrade it was FROYO.UCJK1
This is the other info I have now:
Phone number: Same as before upgrade
Network: AT&T
Signal Strength: -92 dBm 9asu
Mobile Network Type: HSDPA
Service State: In Service
Roaming: Not Roaming
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
IMEI: Same as before Upgrade
IMEI SV: 05 this was 02 before upgrade
Network Mode is GSM/WCDMA
I also tried manually setting network operators. When searching two AT&T come up. When I select one of the two AT&T manually it says "your SIM does not allow a connection on this network." It registers to the other just fine however. When I "Select Automatically" It also seems to work.
I tried removing the SIM but all that does is want the Tab to go into initial reboot. when I reinserted the SIM and rebooted nothing had changed.
I can not make calls. An AT&T voice prompt comes up and says "The call you are trying to place is not allowed from this line."
I can also not send or receive SMS messages although I receive no errors. This however may be due to the fact that I previously called AT&T months ago and told them I did not want to receive SMS messages because I was getting all kinds of Spam messages every day and getting charged for them.
I am hoping that maybe phdeez can also chime in here since he says he has the Tab with AT&T. Here is my initial post to XDA that convinced me to update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982476
Thanks,

you can try these:
1) go to the modem thread in dev section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069727
first post has something called AT&T stock modem.
I am not sure if it is the same as Overcome JK3
Actually I would expect JK3 modem to have a "JK3" in the baseband, doesn't it?
Use CWM to flash that one from modem thread and see what the baseband said
(it better say I987UCK1 because it is stock...)
2. make sure you have AT&T APN correctly set.
about not able to make phone call, I think AT&T maintain a list of IMEI and know that you have a tablet. It is too bad that you can't make call, but the modem thing hopefully solve the 3G.
One note to you just as extra knowledge (not needed now), the CWM flashable modem only works for stock (so called BML partition) ROM, like Overcome.
When you move on to CM9 or CM10 (MTD partition rom), you only need to use root explorer to copy the modem.bin to /radio/modem.bin

I agree with what priyana has stated above.
I believe ATT maintains a list of IMEIs to block calling, however there might be a workaround with a different SIM - calling did NOT work before the upgrade, right?
Possible Modem issue, however since you see networks, you're probably good
APN Settings are likely blocking internet
See here for APN settings for ATT link, however I would combine the settings into one APN since you're not using the phone function. So, the APN should look like:
Code:
Name: ATT
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username: -
Password: -
Server: -
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com/
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: -
APN Type: mms,supl,default,internet
APN Protocol: ipv4
I wish I could speak from experience on using my Tab with ATT Data (or with Overcome ROM), however as soon as I received it I disabled my plan and took the SIM out. I never actually ran data with ATT's network, and just recently attempted to use my ATT Tab on Tmo. For the longest time my Tab was a wifi-only Tab...

I am sooooo frustrated right now. I've tried several modems and checked and double checked the APN settings. I am beginning to wonder if maybe its not working because I no longer have the AT&T apps or widget? I don't know why they didn't get backup-ed and restored by Titanium Backup. I guess I just didn't have that option checked.
Where can I get the AT&T stock apps and widget?
Any additional help is appreciated...
Oh... Should I maybe try starting all over with the Overcome Flash from the beginning? I am so afraid of bricking my Tab.
Thanks,
Tom

is there at any stage you have baseband I987UCK1 in Overcome ?
keep that modem, and fix other things.

Ok... THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! :highfive: The above finally worked. I am using the stock AT&T Modem and on baseband ( i987UCJK1 ). Most importantly!!! Create a New APN... And fill out the APN just like it says in the quote by Priyana above and in the article. LEAVE EVERYTHING ELSE BLANK!!! No Proxy, no Port, No MMSC, No MMS info nothing. Working like a charm now.:laugh:
Now if I could only get the phone to work as a side benefit then that would be sweet... I didn't have it before in froyo so that would be new.
Thanks again guys and especially Priyana.

Any help with this will be much appreciated. Also I am trying to find a way to root this version but every post I go to has a download and when extracted its not what it says it should be. ie its zimage not a file with .tar after.
Suts

I ended up calling optus and found that the upgrade had deleted the settings for the internet on 3g so for anyone upgrading on the optus network go to

gingerbread att tab

Just flashed the new gingerbread rom. Works great but it doenst recognize my sim card or network. I have att tab. Any help to restore it?
Did you remember to download the Modem package too? That's what I'm guessing.
sent from my Galaxy Tab using Cerebral up-link
Did you flash the version with the bootloader? Any whiteline issue on boot?
No I didn't download or flash a modem do I need to? I flashed the one with the bootloader. No whiteline I noticed.
I flashed with bootloader, tried 2 different modems, and no network. wifi works. tried flashing back to stock and everything went crazy. While I was using Odin, I STUPIDLY, plugged in my Captivate to charge without thinking, causing Odin to fail and I got the "phone - ! - PC" Icon.......talked about scared! Ended up using Roto's ATT stock image and Odin to get it back running again,barely. Now I get CRAZY lines when I boot (like if you tweaked the cable to an LCD screen), can't see Recovery screen....total craziness. Still no data. so I flashed back to OverCome Gingerbread ROM following his instructions, still no data
UNTIL
I swapped the SIM card with my phone. I suddenly got data on my Tab, but data would not function on my phone. Seems like the problem follows my SIM. Background: I also had a weird issue before hand where I couldn't open the Market on Cellular data without killing the data connection on Stock Rooted.
Thought I'd share.
EDIT: oh, and I can send text messages without issue.
Go to Settings, Wireless & Network, Mobile Networks, Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN and name it Broadband & make the APN Broadband as well. Just leave the other options and save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN with doesnt work with the Tab Data plan.

Well Son of B....you rock. What pisses me off is I've screwed up my boot screen (all kinds of colored lines) trying to fix this. Thanks.

Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed modem does not work
AT&T monthly pay as you go. What modem.bin do I load? Where can I get it. Is there any additional setup instructions?
Follow my instructions above and flash the JK3 modem fromt this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069727
Mine keeps saying insert sim card to access. So how do I get it to recognize the sim?
Please anyone with some help? Can I store back to original att froyo and just wait for official upgrade?
Have you guys entered in your APN settings for ATT Broadband?
I am also having a strange radio issue. I am using an ATT Tab with Overcome v2.0 Beta 2 and the JK3 modem. 3G data works great until I try to access the Google Android Market. As soon as I do it drops the 3G connection and wont come back until I reboot it. If I dont go to the market or only go to the market on WiFi it works just fine. I also verified that the same behavior happens with the JPZ modem..
My theory is somehow ATT is blocking Gingerbread Tabs from going to the market using their SIM card. Therefore I think maybe I need to edit my build.prop to spoof them. Can anyone recommend which values should be changed? Can anyone think of anything else that could cause this? Can anyone reproduce this issue on their ATT tab?

You used the bootloader patch app, right?
Reinstall the stock 2.3, then the root, then overcome. Follow the overcome guide, this time put the modem.bin in the phone slot in odin. There is no other fox for the wiggly lines. If you don't reflash everything, you can't get into recovery mode.
i cant get into the network settings as it tells me to insert a sim. I tried to flash the modem as well with no luck.
ok so I turned on my tab to play with it a bit and I had data! It was an H and seemed to work. When I restarted the tab it stopped working and said no sim again.
1) The Gingerbread rom has a modem with it that works fine on AT&T.
2) Did you leave your sim card in while flashing?
i did leave my sim in while flashing. Should I have it out? It seems the tab only recognizes the sim card every so often. Not all the time. Any way to flash the sim recognition part?
Could you please post how you flashed your att tab so I can follow it? Thanks.

(MMS And Send/Receive Picture Fix) Get Your Messaging working on 2.3.4 HKTW

Go to Mobile network settings and go to SMSC Settings and put in +13123149810 click update. This number is for ATT US. Try looking up your SMSC Android settings on your carrier and putting it in andn hopefully it works. If not try restarting and see if it works then. Make sure u have all of your APN settings setup for your carrier 2.
I Have Radio 01.97.00R http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128963
I upload my APN for AT&T, (Update) Should be able to send and receive pictures and video to and from people for At&t only!
Download ApnManager From Market.
Put ApnManager Folder in to the internal sdcard.
Open ApnManager and click resort APN. See if u can now send and receive, If not try restarting.
My old APN had Custom Tethering that messed up Picture Messaging! You can try deleting that if u can't send or receive pictures!2.
This doesn't work for me. My SMSC number was already the one you listed, and MMS doesn't work still...
so how many APN's are listed on your setting....i have 4 (AT&T US, AT&T HSDPA, AT&T US Tether, AT&T US MMS)
i get mms now, but i got a much slower speed. around 1MB download and upload speed.
also, which one are you generally suppose to be connected to? I'm connected to AT&T US
EDIT: Actually i just found out, after about 10 minutes, your phone should be fully logged into their server. I live in Las Vegas so the territory has VERY fluctuant connection, i had moments where id get 7.2MB and then jumps down to 0.8MB. Alright, so the apn worked perfectly.
i had to enter a mms apn for fido to get mms working, smsc number was already there for my carrier. here's the settings.
Fido mms
apn: mms.fido.ca
mmsc http://mms.fido.ca
mms proxy: 205.151.011.013
mcc: 302
mnc: 370
apn type: mms
Still having issues sending and receiving MMS, I had it working previously but don't know what has changed. I've got everything set correctly per the instructions. Does anyone have any other possible solutions... though I did find it a tad weird that it still says 4.1.83 for Systerm Version, but my build number correctly reflects that it's 2.3.4. Please help.
flashing the 1.97 radio and using the supplied apn's worked for me. After a reboot.

maybe trying doing a fresh install of 2.3.4, start by flashing back to 4.1.83. it doesnt sound right that it still says 4.1.83 after you install 2.3.4, might be a bad flash. my system version is 45.3.0.mb860.retail.en.05 after flashing 2.3.4.
I am also still having trouble with my mms...I did a clean flash to 2.3.4 and updated the radio, but I am still not able to view picture messages. My apn's appear to be set correctly...any ideas?
The instructions in the OP worked for me. I had a clean install of 2.3.4 HKTW, new radio, with the v1.8 update rollup fix, and mms would not work.
1. Download APN Manager
2. Copy the folder in the OPs zip file to your Internal SD
3. Open APN Manager and do a Restore
4. Reboot phone
My APN settings were the same before I did this, but it would not work until I followed these instructions.

Need help willing to pay!!

[Q] In Mexico. Which modem for Telcel?

Serendipity 6.4
Kernel: 2.6.32.9 - [email protected] #32
Baseband Version: I9000UGJK4
Firmware: 2.2.1
And I've also tried
Serendipity VII Build 3
Firmware: 2.3.3
Baseband: I9000TUBJV6
This phone was unlocked and it worked just fine in Taiwan.
I'm now in Baha Mexico, I have a Telcel SIM card, but it just does not work. And I absolutely must get this to work because checking email is critical for me. I don't know what to do. Do I need to update my modem? Which one do I need to update to?
1. My APN settings are all correct for Telcel:
Name: Internet
APN: internet.itelcel.com
Username: webgprs
Password: webgprs2002
MCC: 334
MNC: 020
Authentication Type: PAP
APN Type: Internet
2. I show signal on the signal bar, but no 3G or 1X. It says "Emergency Calls Only."
3. When I go dial the number to activate (*333) I get "Data Network Not Available"
4. When I search for the available Network Operators, Telcel pops up, but if I click on it I get "Unable to connect. Try again later." and "unable to select network. Select automatically." This happens over and over.
5. I called Telcel and it is confirmed that they are still waiting on me to dial in and activate my SIM card, using *333. The problem is, I can't dial in.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Hope I helped
Is your IMEI correct, ive seen that cause problems so make sure you dont have the generic one as that will allow you to connect to some networks but not all, also if you keep having problems i'd suggest odin back to stock (that for sure Works on Telcel's network and if your IMEI is missing it might even give it back)and then update back up SlimBean seams to work quite well for me. Hope i helped, would have answered earlier but just bearly stumbbled on to this thread
