[Q] [C6603] need help with lte setting(t-mobile), thank you - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so at first i cannot even use the mobile data, and then i change my apn setting
Name:T-mobile
APN:epc/fast.tmobile/t-mobile.com<-i have both
MMSC:mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
which i tried both and found that it only activated edge network, not even 3G network
what is going on with my phone? or maybe it is because i lived on a mountain and there is no 3g/lte signals here?
thank you

the apn should be fast.t-mobile.com not epc/fast.tmobile/t-mobile.com

Wizard with Qtek test ROM - how not to roam?

I need some help. I can't seem to force my 9100 not to roam. Even after selecting manual network selection, it still roams over to another network. Can anyone help?
Try to set the "prefered networks" enabling only the one that you want to connect to.

Thanks for you guys' reply. I have read those threads and it's not the same problem.
I am on SunCom which is a local small local network. I have tried to set it to Manual network selection and Preferred Network but it is still roaming over to Cingular when SunCom is not available. I rather not have a signal at all. You see I have unlimited EDGE data only with SunCom. If I'm on Cingular, I'll have to pay for the data connection.
Can anyone help?

Can’t change network and roam with Att tilt

Hi,
I have an Att tilt (stock) and at work I loose phone signal.
I had a similar issue with my sprint phone and phone service. When the setting for “roaming or sprint network” was set to “automatic” I would loose signal all the time. Instead for the phone locking into the roaming stronger signal (Alltel) would try to lock into the sprint weak signal all day (going in and out resulting in lost calls). When I had that setting to “roaming only” it would lock into alltell (the stronger signal) with 5 bars.
On the tilt when I go to phone/settings/network the only option is “find network” and that option looks for att and not anything else. Is there a way to force my att tilt to roam only and therefore lock to the alltel network (very strong signal)? Or expose all the available networks and choose which one I want to lock in?
Thanks for all the help, this is a great forum
cannot locate different networks
im having the same problem. phone has bad at&t signal. I cannot locate a diferent network.
Forcing roaming with tilt
I guess the question is…Is there a way to force roaming only in a stock att tilt?
Thanks,
Bump
Anyone?
Thanks for the help
Bump again....I want to know the same thing. I have free roaming, but I can't get it to roam.
PRL file
Bump
Does the phrase “PRL file” provide any help?
Is this an editable file that can solve the issue?
Thanks

I'd like manual n etwork selection as well, but you may be roaming and not know it. AT&T sets up all their phones so it looks like you are on your native network, even when you're not. I had bypassed this and enabled manual network search on all my Motorola phones, I'd like to do the same here with my Tilt.

i suggest setting the band in settings/phone to wcdma. Try it.

I don't have that setting. AT&T removed it. In 3G mode the field test doesn't do much. In GSM mode it seems to work well.

The stock HTC ROM allows this, but it didn't seem to do anything. I know because the ATT HSDPA network is available at my house (barely), and when I lose it it switches to a full signal Edge.
But! If I switch to GSM it seems to lock to the much better Edge signal at my house instead of the HSDPA. That works for me, but will it limit my signal elsewhere?
I had the same problem....the network found was AT&T all the time and no signal, so I place the Sim in a friends Nokia with manual network selection and choose T-MOBILE, place it back in my tilt...problem solved !!
Note: I'm an international user, only use roaming when in USA. But this may help you guys !

[Q] Only using 3g connection on hd7

hi everyone ,i'm a new user .
as title i make this question.i often connect to internet by 3g connection.i went to setting/mobile network then i set data connection: on,3g connection: on and my country APN.My Hd7 work well ,but only "use 3g connection when availale". it almost switch to 2g network
Anybody have ideas to solve it ?it really really necessary for me
Sorry for my bad English,hope you understand my problem
Go to the dialer. Type ##3282#. Go to settings, under 'Network Type', choose 3G only. If it's already on 3G only (I think it moves back and forth between 2G only and 3G only while on Automatic mode), change it to 2G only, then back to 3G only. This will keep it on 3G only.
thank you very much.i solved it
hello friends I have a t-mobile hd7 but I'm from Colombia, they know how I can make it work on 3G network here in Colombia because it only works on 2g

3g network issu

i have shifted my data plan from 2g to 3g vodafone in india, can anyone advice if we need to change the settings in our note, as cannot find any difference in 2g and 3g...thanks in advance
yes the APN settings are different from GPRS.. check with the provider for the correct APN settings and enter it.. also you can check on their website.
when the phone is using 3G you should see 3G or H+ next to the signal indications
thanks bro, but i could find the solution, you need to go in settings and then in mobile networks, you should select wcdma option and then check the user data package..then it reflect's 3G or h+ and even speed..

Problem data leaving WIFI

Greetings friends, someone will have problem with the data after leaving a WIFI network? I have to turn off mobile data to activate the 3G, this device does not mark H +. and searched information everywhere and I get nothing on this issue. please help!
i configured correctly APN, the problem is when I leave a WIFI network to network DATA, I have to put it in airplane mode, several times to grip the data network, I have a question? This phone does not mark H +? I appears in the device information HSPAP(H+), but only get the 3g icon.
Thank you

See screenshots at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/r1-hd/help/dual-sim-issues-t3426120
Icon labeled 4GLTE when LTE is connected, but just R (registered?) for HSPA+, whether connected or not.
Is data turned on at Settings/Data usage?
At Settings/More/Cellular networks/ is Preferred network type set to 3G/4G? Maybe it's looking for LTE.
Mine goes directly to whichever network data is turned on when I turn off wifi.
What kind of sim are you using?

Cellular data connection status doesn't show in the status bar. I'm using freedompop 3G for the moment. See the screenshot.

greetings, in my country is not available currently the 4g lte network, and put on 3G/4G, 2G only, 2G/3G/4G and 2G/3G/4G LTE and the problem continues, I have to put the airplane mode or restart cell to grab data.
the only solution I can find is put always active mobile data in programmer Options. but it consumes a lot of battery.

Always active seems to be the default. It's on in my phone and I never changed it.
In Settings/Battery is Standby intelligent power saving on? When on I get about 1.5% per hour standby.
The "R" is Roam I believe. You might want to look at your APN and Network Operator settings. If your phone is roaming, it is going to burn battery. Maybe try turning off Roaming?
When you go to Settings -> Battery and then tap the graph, and it will show you metrics in RYG for Cellular Network Signal, Wifi, Awake, etc. What does your "Cellular Network Signal" look like?
Freedompop roams on att and t mobile (it's a global sim card) I had the lg g4 before this and I was able to choose which I would be on, now if I try to manually connect all available networks are "freedompop" then it says roaming ("R") is status bar, on my g4 it would have an "H"
Any app to get more details on my options and what I'm connected to?

Thanks but that's not what I mean,
On other phones it was fine on the "BLU R1 HD" it only roams and I can't choose between att and TMO

I'll post some screenshots of my settings when I figure out how....

What I'm trying to do is with the FREEDOMPOP sim card choose which the phone should roam on between att or TMO all I can choose from is a list of "FreedomPop" but it's not saying which is roaming on
(Other phones you can choose)
I believe one set is att and the other TMO but how can I know (see there are two sets, two of each 2g 3g 4g)
May I ask why it matters which one it roams on? i'd just turn of the advanced lte and not worry about if it was t-mobile or at&t it will pick the strongest signal and connect to it. but there apps that can help you figure out what network and who's your actually using.
