What exactly are you trying to do? Maybe try to restart you G1 or reboot it. I have never had this problem at all.Maybe check with some other users.

You should change the thread title to something more informative pertaining to your proble. Most of the time, the pros on here will pass by a thread just says help because they don't feel like entering a thread just to see if they *can* help at all. Also, it might allow others who have had the same problem and fixed to easily see your problem and come to the rescue.
Back to the problem at hand. Can you use the mobile data for anything? updating weather etc? If you can't then its probably something to do with your APN settings. Who is your carrier? T-Mobile? AT&T? To check what APNs you have now, go to: Settings>Wireless Controls> Mobile Network>APNs
If it is blank, that's why you can't connect, the phone doesn't know where to connect to. Simply type your carrier into google along with G1 APN settings (ie AT&T G1 APN settings) and they should tell you the correct settings to input in order for you to access your mobile network. Good luck.
P.S. Also add more information about what's going on with your phone so that we can figure it out quicker without having to ask you for everything one-by-one. You can tell us the ROM you're using, whether this is a new problem, or something that's never worked, your wireless carrier, your SSN (just kidding), but come on, some background info could make this process infinitely faster...

so you were trying to pay less than everyone else for the same service and got caught with your hand in the cookie jar. and you're pissed? quit whining and just pony up the extra 5 bucks.

HELP: Shows Signal but cannot use for calling,data,messaging!!!

On my Phone(Andromeda 2.0 Themed), I get the indication of having 3g or any signal at all and the minute I attempt to send a message, make a call, or surf the web it is unable to send that message, unable to make that call, and unable to surf the web. Help on how to fix this?
NOTE: A flash back to stock DID NOT help this problem at all.
EDIT: Changing APN isn't really working(Cant leave the APN type as not set because it auto sets it to internet+mms when I save) and I am starting to get a little frustrated. The reception was really working fine earlier today but now its just weird all over. Please help me out you guys, I really need this working.
EDIT2: Please help guys, I really need my service up for tomorrow.
EDIT3: I am going to AT&T today to swap out my SIM card!!!! I am all Odin'ed out and I will check back if this works.

First try to enable airplane mode. Then turn it off.
If that does not work check your apn settings, under wireless and network, mobile networks, access points

Doing that now.... The signal bar indicates no connected network.... Trying the second thing you suggested....
For the second option I am under Wireless and Network/Mobile Networks/Access Points.
My options from there are AT&T 310 410(the text under it says wap.cingular)
What do i do from there?????

That reads correct. Unless you are on rogers. Hmmm. I am on the same rom but do not have the same issue. You may want to manually configure you're apn. You may want to search the captivate forum for at&t apn settings. I think you can find them in one of the stickies

I am on att dude. Thanks for the advice. You are positive its the APN though? This happened to me on Phoenix Reloaded too.

No I am not sure, I have not had your problem but this is where I would start if it did. The apn settings are posted in the captivate development stickies, captivate directory

Okay, so I configured the APN settings to what was found in the thread. Problem is the only thing I cannot configure is the APN type. Hm. Any help?

I am sorry I hope someone who has done this reads this and has a suggestion but I have not had to do this
Read through the sticky, maybe yet has been discussed

Read through it and nothing. It wont let me keep the APN type as not set and it automatically sets it to internet+mms. Any ideas?

Have you posted in the andromeda thread? Maybe the devs may have some ideas

I just did, hopefully they have an answer and if they dont hopefully someone will post an answer here....

I had the same issue back a few weeks ago. I called att, got a replacement phone, and it did it again. Turned out to be a bad SIM.

So do I just need a new sim card???

Well, this sim card JUST started doing this. So are you sure it is just the sim? I mean, if I go to the store to get a new sim, will they ask to see my phone? Will I have to flash back to stock before I get a new SIm?

Do you think the person in the store will have any idea what a custom rom is? Chances are they will change it no questions asked

Okay, do you think I should just play it safe and reset to stock though?

There is no harm in doing so.

Well, thanks, I will head first thing in the morning.

I got the same problem at certain locations, such as my university. Haven't been able to get much help... Gonna try getting the SIM changed as it's a pretty old SIM. Weird thing is that it works fine on my Sony Ericsson G705/W715.
So almost two months of owning my Captivate that I got from Rogers (BNIB from Kijiji) and I noticed that at a certain area in my school, I have 3/5 bars of signal yet I can't seem to text/call and use the network. Is this a network problem or phone problem? Or can it also be my SIM? My SIM card is pretty old. However everything was fine when I use my Sony Ericsson W715 in the same area.
I should add that my friends on the same network beside me, they can text/call fine, which leads me to believe that this is a phone problem. A poster over at Howard Forums suggested network congestion, but it seems impossible because everyone else can use their phone fine.
I've tried different modems too, but it doesn't help. It's like my Captivate doesn't want to work at certain areas of my school.

I am just going to change my SIM. It is about 4 years old now and I think that means it needs to be replaced. I actually worked fine at my home before and now it cant even find a network. I am going to head out for a new SIM in a little bit, I will get back to you on if it works then.

[Q] 4.3 - Can anyone uncheck the voice and data roam guards?

It appears to be a new feature (based on a search the Galaxy S 4 from Sprint is having the same problem) that you can not disable the data and voice roam guards. They are checked and greyed out.
Can anyone on 4.3 uncheck these and if so what ROM are you on?

I can check/uncheck all, running ElipticOne 4.3 v2

Strange I am on BadBoy and it is greyed out... Galaxy S 4 users are having the same problem.

I was able to disable them before my phone provisioned... looks like that may be where it is locking it.
I can't use any previous backups (which kinda sucks) but atleast I got them turned off.

I am sitting 100% stock (un-rooted for now), and I can remove the roaming guards, you may want to check with others using the same ROM as you.

I am also able to toggle them off and on, completely stock and unrooted. I read somewhere if you toggle data mode to CDMA only you can change them, then change it back to CDMA/LTE and they stick. Might wanna give that a try.

I'm on SwG 2.02 and can also check/uncheck all roaming guards.
Perhaps there is an incorrect build.prop edit.

I'm on BadBoy and I can check/uncheck it.

As of 4.3 I can't uncheck them. No one in my house can, all 3 of us are on HTC Ones that have been updated to 4.3 completely stock.
Switching to CDMA Only did not change it, still grayed out.

I think it is a problem with having old settings on the phone... If I use the HTC restore then I lose the ability to uncheck them, when I do a clean flash without the restore I have no problem unchecking them.
Try a clean wipe (and don't use any restore programs like HTC) and see if you can uncheck them

If I have to choose between installing and re-configuring all my apps again, or having the irritating data roaming message... I'll probably just deal with the message. I don't have time to re-do my phone all over again :/

If you have bluetooth integration in your vehicle, it is more than just an "irritating" message. It actually prevents you from using your car's bluetooth to dial your phone in roaming (the call will always fail unless you manually select the dismiss on the roam notification from the phone). This is more than just irritating. Also will prevent you from streaming music during trips (atleast when you pop in and out of roaming locations) because each time you enter a roaming location you will have to dismiss the guard before it will let you get data on the roaming network.

I guess I'll just chalk this experience up to HTC's notoriously amazing QA. Maybe I'll re-do my phone this weekend then. We are also having problems where all of our phones are having received SMS timestamps that are 1 hour behind (but only on sprint towers, and only in the tri cities - works fine roaming, in knoxville, or on airave...). Wonder if it's also related to restoring the backup or just Sprint being Sprint.

About 3 hours freeway driving. Knoxville is closer and I don't have the problem there. All 3 of our Ones are affected (and we aren't even on the same Sprint plan) but my buddy's iPhone is not. Also, the clock on my phone is always correct and it is set to get the time from the tower. It is only received SMS timestamps that are wrong. A conversation will look like this: Sent message 10:40AM Received message 9:41AM Sent message 10:42AM Received message 9:44AM etc.
I will just reset the phone this weekend, maybe it will be happy again.

Oops. Got that one by me.

[SOLVED] Phone network issue

Hello everyone,
Informations
Phone : Nexus 6
ROM : Euphoria OS 1.0 with included kernel
I have a little problem with the phone network...
I have just install the ROM (3days ago) and everything worked fine.
After the first reboot, I had a network problem: no more network (just phone)
Bluetooth is OK,Wifi also ect...
No extra apps installed.
Any idea?
Thanks
Edit : French phone/network (FreeMobile)

I am having issues over here also. My data randomly stopped working on my way down to memphis, randomly would start to work again. I tried a new rom, it slightly got better, but would cut out of data every 5 min. Kinda got it better by switching to tmo in the apn's. Now just installed sinless, and it is no longer working again.

So, same problem and no fix...? :/

Holy cow! I thought I was the only one! I mean this problem really sucks(and I have wasted a lot of my hours trying to fix it), and have been thinking of creating a thread on this problem until I saw yours.
Okay let me start with what I'm on:
N6: 64gb blue
Rom: Stock
Rooted: Yes
Any other modification: No, only think I did was unlock and do chainfire su root.
Network: VZW
I have had this phone since Dec with no issues other than random reboot every so often.
Now to the problem I had, I went out to the middle of MO for a weekend get away (on Feb 14th). The whole time I was out there it showed 1x even though I was still getting LTE speed. Didn't think much of it until we moved further into the hilly parts of MO were I lost service. Thought it was just where we were at, and thought it would come back once we got back to the hotel we were staying at. It never did. It would say "No Network found" only allow 911 calls.
Spent the next 4 days working With VZW with several trips to the store, and talking to tech support. They made sure my IMEI was not blocked on their side. We used several sim chips, they would all do the same thing, quickly connect then disconnect and go back to no service.
So I did a factory reset, still didn't help. I finally did a fastboot flash of 5.0.1 stock again, this fixed the issue. Until I used titanium backup to restore my sys setting. Then it would drop and not reconnect after the reboot. So I did fastboot flash again and it hasn't happened again since last Thurs. I just restored my app's again to make sure it wouldn't fail to connect over the weekend, and rebooted several times. No issues so far, but I called Motorola and they are RMAing me a new one, because I don't have any trust in this one anymore. They are out of 64gb ones, and they will get back to me in a week.
Questioned to anyone who has gotten a RMA from Motorola:
Are their "like new" replacements okay? I got a few from them when I had my droid x, and they were crap. So I wasn't sure if that is still the same for the N6 or not. I have a feeling its not, but just wanted to get other peoples input on that process.
Thank you for creating this thread, and for everyone's time!
Edit: Had the same issue network wouldn't work, however WIFI, Location, Bluetooth would.

Check your APNs..... make sure you are on the correct one, and that both of APN protocols say IPv4.
Sent from my Nexus 6

APN is for Internet(3G) and MMS, no?
Because we have a phone network (call & SMS) issues.
On my side, APN are OK, but still don't work...
Edit: New !
Everything works fine on :
- Paranoid Android 5 Alpha 1
- Chroma (Latest)
But not work on :
- Euphoria
- Stock ROM
Edit 2 : It works now !!
I seen that I had several issues around the APN side. I mean, I can't add APN, sometime I can. Sometimes APN reseted themselves, sometimes it was OK. Then, I had read the solution above: security tab.
I had just remove my 3rd party lockscreen (HiLocker). Restart the phone and voilà ! After the reboot, my phone ask me the pin code, and all APN are here.
I hope it can help...!

Some times I will see the APN settings, and sometimes I won't. Right now I don't. When it does show up it shows VZWINTERNET selected. There are ton of other options, but they don't work either when the problem was seen.

Is what your experiencing data going in and out? I'm on Sprint and I thought maybe it was just an issue with Sprint. I have or need to read up more on APN because it does get bothersome. I even have issues where sometimes my SMS gets hung up for minutes in sending mode before they actually send. Would be nice to have this corrected.

No my whole problem was that it would drop and no matter what I would do wouldn't reconnect to the network. I tried a lot of things to fix it (see above). APN would appear and then disappear from the menu. Right now its working on the network as of last Thurs. and APN options is not there.

The APN option will not show for a CDMA Carrier, Sprint or VZW, in your case VZW. APNs are set by the Sim from Verizon so you shouldn't be messing with those, nor should the option show up under mobile network settings.

It was like you. Sometimes network was OK, and sometimes, it was down...

So current working theory is that it was a software issue that cause the problem. I'm just unclear as to why it happened, and how to stop it from occurring again . I do have OpenDNS enabled on the phone, could that cause the problem?

Heres my problem, I'll drop out of an LTE zone, and 3G/HSPA will come on line. Only if its on 3G I never get any data, and sometimes with HSPA too. Not until LTE comes back on line again, but then if I'm trying to stream say music 3G/HSPA wont let LTE take over again for a pretty long while.

Lost mobile data with an exclamation mark, I can still make calls.

Edit: added details.
I have had my Nexus 6 for 3 days and first installed my Straight Talk SIM yesterday. Everything worked fine for less than a day then I started getting MMS picture messages failing. Now I get no mobile data. I swapped my SIM with my wifes, also on straight talk and mine with hers and I get the same issue and mine works fine in her phone.
I have rebooted many times, I have checked my APN settings and even have tried alternatives.
I have done a few searches and see other have this or very similar issues but I have not found anything that fixes my issue.
I am running Pure Nexus with the stock kernel.

Need few more details. Who is your carrier? What ROM is on working phone?
I would clean flash latest factory image and see if that helps.

Straight Talk.
Pure Nexus ROM
I did a back up and tried flashing another ROM last night, CyanogenMod but I did something wrong and I ended up flashing Pure Nexus again and it restored everything from my backup (still learning I guess). But it is working fine, now that is, it was working fine before. The only thing that I thought may have caused an issues was I had Macrodroid setup to disable wifi radio when out of my homes cell tower's range. I used this all the time with my old phone and it helped a lot to save battery. But it didn't seem to work for some reason. So I turned Macrodroid off and it did help with my data issues then I even uninstalled it completely.
So bottom line, it's working now, but like I said in my original post, it was working for about 24 hours then I started having issues.

I think all know this detail by now. The APN however is unique straight talk even though it is technically AT&T or (T-mobile)

I can't believe this is still an issue, totally unacceptable IMO

I've had this twice today. 100% stock, no root. Latest T-Mobile 5.1.1 with T-Mobile service. I'll take my phone out of my pocket and have a "!" next to the signal bar.
This even happens when in use. I had Spotify streaming music in my car when it cut out. When I got home, I checked the phone and again, "!" next to the signal bar.
I just did a clean flash and factory reset yesterday and set the phone up as a new device (no apps auto downloaded from previous setup) and I'm still getting this error whenever I leave the phone to sleep too long.

Same here !
Bought a N6 as my first Google phone, I thought I'd get the benefits of an always up to date phone, but instead I have to deal with that kind of issue
Hopefully that's a software issue and Google will provide us with a fix quickly... that's why I bought a Nexus !
(Orange 4G - France)

I had the same thing happen to me today. I left my phone in the car to go to a meeting, went to check it had no signal. Just turned on airplane mode for a few seconds then off, everything came back. I'm using the phone on ATT GoPhone network. I'm also using the nextgenphone apn instead of the phone apn. Maybe that's causing it.
