why not just writing down your apn on paper? It will take 2 minutes

[Q] 3G Network not working after updating to 2.2

So i used odin to flash my captivate...Now my 3G network isnt working. Instead of 3G it shows an "E" next to the bars which i assume stands for Edge and I am not able to connect to anything using it D:
Are you on Rogers or AT&T? As far as I know no ROMs have the proper APNs for Rogers, and that could be your problem.
I have had the same problem, you have to manual put in the apn setting for Rogers or At & T. Once you have them back in, use apn backup and restore, a free app to back them up.
how would u manually put in the settings?

No need. I'll attach my Rogers APN backup.
Download APN Backup and Restore, then extract my zip file into the root of your sdcard (So the full directory will be /sdcard/ApnBackupRestore/whateverthexmlisnamed.xml). Launch APN Backup and Restore, then hit Restore APNs and you're good to go!

[MOD] Hotspot Enabler

Simple and to the point.
Enables the use of stock hotspot function.
This is only working for ATT and StraightTalk - ATT Sim. If you have another carrier you will have to do the procedure yourself below.

i have a att sim, flashed it and still does the same as before flashing. says dial 611 or go to myatt.com to activate hotspot?
Not working for ST AT&T sim, wireless or tethered. 1.08 odexed.
I can't speak to JMZ's flash, but I can guarantee the manual method works (& worked for him, also). Give it a try.

I just did a manual merge of the telephony.db in the zip, rebooted, and it's good.
Goes in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

that didnt work for me, stock rom but linaro v3 kernel.
Well. It seems I have hotspot enabled on my plan but not getting charged for it. That's why this mod works for me but jot anyone else.
So the Att version is broken

Don't know. Typing this now on my A500 using First hotspot with Straight Talk/ATT SIM.
Flashed the zip and it didn't work for StraightTalk. Not familiar with the installer but seems to be a script bug when checking for ATT / ST selection.
Manually copied the ST db and it didn't work, got the error "dial 611 or go to myatt.com to activate hotspot"
And it changed my ST APN settings.
I manually updated the db with SQLlite and got it to work with StraightTalk.
The ST db file in the zip uses the old APN setings, I was provisioned with the new settings.
See this thread for details on the ST APN settings.
New Straight Talk APN

So… what's the procedure?
Analyzing your files in SQLite I see you changed tables 2 and 12, but I can't seem to figure out the logic behind it. My experiments don't get me too far.

Thanks, tried again, no luck.
Any build.prop changes to be made?

No, nothing in build.prop. What ROM are you running? What SIM are you trying to use? I was using AT&T via ST, is your T-Mobile via ST?
If ST, was there a recent change in the APN settings? I have read that there were some updated AT&T ST APN settings, but they do not work as well as the old ones, at least in some markets. I tried them to see if there was an improvement and actually lost all data, so reverted.
Stock 1.08.
I'm outside the US at the moment, so my carrier couldn't be further from AT&T, T-Mobile or any of their MVNO's. But the APN settings are correct: tethering works with factory unlocked phones.

You need to be rooted and s-off for changes to stick in system files. Good luck.
Ran into a tethering issue after addition of a third, but not selected APN. Tethering showed connected but there was no Internet connection. I tried setting up the new ST settings to see if my SIM could access LTE. It could not. I then simply re-selected my original APN. All seemed to work OK, except the tethered wifi device could not see the internet. The additional setting changed the order in the telephony DB list. Went back to just the two APNs and all is again fine.
I cannot get telephony.db to stick on my friend's First for some reason. No hash match after reboot every time. Tried zip installer and ADB push, in TWRP and in OS. 1.08...1 S-off and rooted. Also tried deleting telephony.db-journal first like the installer script does. So strange because I've done it with my phone. Note that I had downgraded from 1.08...4 to do this.
Is JmzJBSenseMyst_v3 new? That's what im running. I tried this on MEDUSA as well with no go.
It basically messes the phone up completely un-useable since I'm on Straight talk att blue sim and on apn - tfdata.
So how do you get tethering on this phone with apn - tfdata for att straight talk blue sim for 4g lte... ?
I can't get MMS to work at all... it won't download says download error even after putting the mms proxy and port 80 etc..
THANKS

Unlocked GSM HTC One no longer getting EDGE from ATT?

I have an unlocked Verizon HTC One GSM version running BoneStock v4.3 ROM and my cellular capabilities work but my data no longer works for some reason. I was running a GPE ROM before and my Edge data worked but it no longer does? How can I fix this?

Check your APN, it was probably wiped when you have flashed another rom.

better to contact them and ask which APN you should use if more than 1 is available.
also check that your preferred network type is set to "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto"
or maybe you'll have to flash another radio

How do I back up apns on sense 6 roms?

no cellular network

Hi there:
I had a rooted nexus 6 with Android 6.
I was playing with chmod and root and messed up some system permissions.
I have re-installed several Nexus 6 Google images 5.1 6.0 etc...
I have everything except cellular signal. It says no service and sometimes no sim card.
I have taken my sim and put it in another phone and it worked.
When I go to *#*#4636#*#*
It says GSM: emergency service only and GPRS service: disconnected.
I tried to change the network type to GSM only and others with no success.
Any help to further diagnose this would be appreciated..
Thanks
do you have an apn entered? and is it correct?

Very good point.
When I flashed 6.0.1
under cellular network settings , I only see Data raoming, Preferred network type and System select.
no APN settings
When I re-flashed 5.0.1 , I could see the apn settings, but when I go to it, it says something like that the user doesn't have permission to view the settings. I even tried to add a new settings and save it, but the message stayed there and I see no APN list at all..
I might have messed up the APN permissions with chmod, but I would think a system re-flash would have corrected it..
Thanks

Does your IMEI match the number on your SIM card tray?
