No APN specified on the device - Driving me insane!!! - Moto X Q&A

So yesterday I rebooted my phone and this popup keeps showing up saying 'No APN specified on the device'. I haven't changed anything, the old APNs are still there. Tried deleting and reentering APN but the popup still persists and now even my internet does not seem to work. To add to the trouble, the phone gets all laggy and jittery when this happens. However, once I connect it to a WiFi network, the popup goes away and the phone works fine once again.
Theres no problem with the network as my other phone seems to be working just fine, internet et al. Someone please tell me theres a solution to this :crying:

Which carrier are you with? You could try a SCRTN by dialing *#*#72786#*#* on the stock dialer if on sprint. That will reset the radio and the phone and force a reboot to do hands free activation again. Alternatively you could try to do a profile update through the settings menu. Though that then becomes more carrier specific as well.

EVDO Problems

I have Damagecontrol V0.9999 installed and data network works great with me but when ever i flash any other rom it stops working and says that service is unavailable. It just starts for first minute when new ROM boots up and then nothing. Not even the icon comes on top
baseband is 2.41.05.02.03
software is 2.26.605.2
Any ideas guys..
Guys please help...
I checked and found out that Version 2.1 works fine on my Phone but 2.1 Update 1 doesnt work. Which may have caused this problems. Any Suggestions..
Not sure I can help much. I'm not with sprint so I'm not real familiar with their settings. I'm Making the Assumption you are. If not let us know what carrier you are with.
Are you able to update your profile from settings >About Phone >Network >Update Profile?
Does the mobile network say connected or turning on in Settings >Wireless & Networks?
It could Be PRI related check it in Settings >About Phone >Software Information and report back with what version you have.
Get that info and note anything else the you think may be relevant ad we'll go from there.
Thanks a lot for the reply.
I am with Reliance CDMA Network in India.
There is no Update Profile setting here >About Phone >Network >Update Profile
Does the mobile network say connected or turning on in Settings >Wireless & Networks?..It says Disconnected because service is unavailable. When i reboot my Device. The 3G ICON comes for a minute or 2 and goes away.
PRI Version is 1.70 in working and 1.70_003 in not working
It also could be an issue with flashing Sprint roms. You might try the bitter sweet Rom.
Do you know if it works in the few moments that comes up. I had reset my PRI and lost my EVDO but it would not work at all, the mobile network would just say turning on all the time and the phone would get hot.
I had to compare/correct settings in the EPST menu with another HERO from my carrier. To access the menu dial ##778# I think the password for edit mode is your MSL mine was 6 zeros yours may be the same. View Mode will not show the Security section info. The settings that finally did the trick for me are below
Security Section
HDR AN Auth User ID
(LONG)
[email protected]
HDR AN Auth Password ID
xxxx
PPP User ID
[email protected]
PPP Password
xxxx
M.IP Default Profile Section
NAI
[email protected]
The HDR AN Auth User ID (LONG) may or may not start with evdo but from 2 carriers that I looked at they were similar. The small x's will be specific to you carrier. The capital Xs were my 10 digit phone number. Like I said best thing would be to do a side by side compare of yours and someone's that is working.
If all this compare and are all good I guess it is possible it could be hardware related. Good luck
But it works with Darkchoid and Damage Control V0.9999 but not other roms. Do these setting changes with ROMS
Mine did that. I put in airplane mode and back to normal and it restarted the data service and now it works

I tried on every ROM. Only Damagecontrol 0.99999 works and darchdroid all evrsions work..
guys plz help
Try dialling *#*#4636#*#* and go into "Phone Info". Hit the menu button then "More". There should be an option there to enable data connection. Also, did you make sure that Sprint DSA is disabled?
I am having similar issue but I have no internet at all . Just got a replacement phone today from nTelos . Got home , created goldcard and ruu to sprint . Rooted the phone and now the Evdo is not working ? I can make calls and receive and all that , however, no internet ??
I went ahead flashed Fresh Toast v2.1 and matching radio but still nothing ?? Any ideas ??

Lost Data Connection!

3G and H are appearing but nothings happening, no activity. This is after a data\cache wipe. Any fix or do I need to flash again?

Check your apn settings. Also, try searching for your network provider.

It's set to orange internet, network provider is set to orange.
dial *#*2263* and make sure all the bands are selected (go under combi bands and select them all). Other than that, not sure.
That's not doing anything on my phone, you sure that works with froyo?
Nevermind, tried sgs tool, all are selected... Still not working..
Ps: swype is awesome.

Get the exact APN name from Orange and make sure it's set for internet.
Sometimes, telcos have multiple APN settings.

What he said. Sorry I got the code wrong, I was going from memory. Failing that (apn check), you may have to reflash, but I'd see if you can get some insight from someone a little more experienced than me
maybe he updated to froyo and lost his imei
Don't understand why but it appears to be working now, I also tried it this morning with no luck maybe it's due to location, but it was working fine before...
Very strange, will try later today and see if it's still working.
Shortly after getting home, got no service message, after reconnecting to network the 3G connection is dead again.
I'll reflash later, this isnt right..
Exactly the same after being flashed and reseting everything to defaults, this is great.
Last time I touch clockwork recovery.
Can't even make any calls now , either the sim cards messed up or the phone is...
I'm starting to hate this phone.

[Q] Droid 3, no 3g after 2.3.4 update (maybe)

Yep, another noob with a busted phone. Verizon Droid 3, about 5 months old.
I've just noticed that I have no 3G. Not a 3G problem, I've confirmed with another phone that I'm in a covered area. Normally I'm under one Wi-Fi net or another, so I rarely use it. Noticed it yesterday when I needed it.
Allowed the 2.3.4 upgrade back in May. No problems, just had to reroot the phone. Pretty sure this started after the upgrade, but not 100% sure.
I've tried Googling, saw the *228, tried it, nothing. Found threads about task killers causing issues, uninstalled Advanced Task Killer, nothing. Pulled the battery and rebooted, nothing. Saw some thread on APN settings, but those are not available to me with Netwrok Mode set to Global. I can set it to CDMA, still has APN setting greyed out.
Not finding anything else much to go on, could use some help.
One thing you could try is hitting *#*#4636#*#* then Phone Information and changing the network to EVDO only. That would force it to connect to 3g. Then if that doesn't work try manually forcing a PRL using ##Program. You could always call Verizon.

Are you on any rom? Stock?
If your on stock, I would go to verizon and ask for a replacement or see if they can give you a replacement or fix it.
If your rooted/custom rom I would try re-downloading whatever rom your using and reflash it. And wipe caches.
I've actually had a few issues with the 3G on my own D3. These steps generally work for me.
Navigate to your APN settings. Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks
Press Menu (An option should pop up that says "Reset APN" or "Reset Values")
Press this and wait a few seconds.
Reboot, and you SHOULD be up and running.
If this doesn't work you can edit the greyed out APNs manually (NOT advised) with a trick I can show you. Hope I was able to help!

I don't think you can even access the apn menu from cdma mode.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Unfortunately, none of them have worked. EndAllFUD, even switching over to GSM so I can get to the AFN settings, there is no reset that I could find.
I've went back and tried unfreezing all the oddball authenticators under the assumption that maybe one of then was IDing me to the 3G network. That hasn't worked either. Unless I come up with another idea, I guess I'm going to have to try Verizon and see if they can/will help.
Well, we have a resolution. After everything up to and including a factory reset, it seems that the 3G radio in my Droid has died. Verizon is sending me another; I'm springing for the overnight shipping.
I had forgotten how much effort had went into customizing this thing. The stock phone is just...painful.
I appreciate all the help that was offered.
Sorry to hear about the 3g radio in your D3, but glad to hear you resolved your issue! Also, I was going to amend my solution. I was basing my answer of memory due to the fact that I am currently running Hashcode's CM9. (It's amazing by the way) The proper instructions were as follows: (Amended instructions are in bold.)
Navigate to your APN settings. Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks
Set network mode to GSM
Change mode back to Global but quickly start tapping the "Access Point Names" menu until it lets you in.
-(You are now in the locked Global Settings Menu)
Press Menu (An option should pop up that says "Reset to default")
Press this and wait a few seconds.
Reboot, and you SHOULD be up and running.

Yeah I just had to throw in a trick I figured out one day when I was screwing around with my phone. My apologies for not remembering to put it in earlier.
Does anyone know how to tweak Droid 3 to make it able to call, message and 3G, but not 1x data?
It isn't possible to make calls or texts using CDMA service locked into EVDO only. If you use Google Voice and a SIP program it would work.

T-Mobile Moto X Connection issues.

I just got my new T-mobile Moto X yesterday, got it activated and it works great at home. But often when I am out and about it will say I have 4g (HSPA+), but the internet will not be working. I was curious if maybe I just have bad APN settings? Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!
Edit: Does unlocking the bootloader invalidate my motocare package? I've tried looking a bit and I'd like to unlock it, but not if it renders motocare useless.

Well first thing first, Did you set up the APN settings? Even if it shows like it has internet you still have to select the correct APN.
Also obvious but... the Tmobile SIM still needs to be activated lol otherwise factory reset that mother... Give a thanks why don't ya

The T-mobile sim is activated, and I am just using the stock APN setup the phone came with. The phone seems to do pretty good, but it just shows a connection sometimes when it doesn't seem to have one. Do you have a link to some T-mobile APN setting for this phone?

I'm using tmobile as well sir. The default APN settings are fine. MY question is did you actually physically select the T-mobile US LTE APN setting. You HAVE TO CLICK ON IT even if the status bar shows you're connected. And if you still need the APN just google. APN settings are everywhere!
after thoughts: if you have a sim you cut your self, don't matter if you're a surgeon, you may run into issues.
also like I said consider a factory reset or clearing your cache settings.

[Q] Moto X XT1053 After Lollipop Update Problems

I update to 222.21.15.Ghost_ro-Retail.en.US I couple week ago and I have notice that You Tube sometime will stop the playback and just get stuck, also when I unlock my phone or lock it some time I get a crackle sound coming from the rear speaker, almost like it a re-verb sound from the lock sound.
I have cleared the cache partition and I have rest my phone from the back up and restore option. And that has not change these two thing from happening. The rest of the phone seams to be working find I don't know what else to do to fix this problem.
Same problem here with YouTube playback... 222.27.1.ghost_row.02.en.DE

Try going to Settings > About Phone and enabling Developer Options by tapping on Build Number several times. Then press the back button and tap on Developer Options and scroll almost all the way to the bottom until you get to the Media section. Try enabling/disabling Use AwesomePlayer (Depreciated) and see if that helps.
Thanks that tip seems to have fix the YouTube playback problem. Any ideas on the crackling sound made at random moments.

I just started having it. Totally random when starting a YouTube video, now it happens when I touch system items like home, back, the app drawer. Keyboard seems fine though.

Definitely software. It's totally sporadic. It stopped last night as I went to bed and then picked up this afternoon when I was texting someone.
Would re-flash using the
MOTO X, GSM Dev Edition:L-5.1-LPA23.12-15 (Retail) LMR1 fixe these software glitches. And if I am on lock bootloader do I need to unlock before flash this per Motorola instructions.

Anyone else having problem with cell data connection? Wifi works fine but cell does not connect. I have this problem using PTel (T-Mobile MVNO w/ LTE) and H2O (AT&T MVNO w/LTE). Truphone which is both T-Mobile and AT&T MVNO but has not LTE can connect but drops the signal quite often even in areas whith strong signal (-75 dbm or better).
I have checked the APN settings for all, cleared cache, done a factory reset and the problem persists. Before the 5.1 update I had absolutely no problem using all three providers listed above. Any suggestion is welcome since I am running out of idea and the next step is calling Motorola.

My data connection has been really good post-update, so I can't offer any assistance other than what you've already done. I would definitely confirm from your carriers which APNs you're supposed to be using and/or call them/Motorola about it.
Try different apns. Sometimes I need to try a few different ones listed before the phone works. Make sure you save the APN
i also had The crackling sound on my moto xt1053 but it was a gravitybox (xposed module) setting I had enabled. after I disabled that and rebooted the problem vanished. This may help others

I've had mobile data connections problems saying something like "failed sign in attempt with AT&T network" and the crackling speaker.
I called AT&T, who did something on their end. It did work, but when I switch from WiFi to mobile there is a moment or two when the !sign-in failed symbol pops up. But, the signal returns soon.
