So I successfully got Twi5ted Lollipop on my Galaxy S5 Active G870A yesterday, everything is working perfectly fine except one thhing: my DATA. My phone is ATT and I have cricket wireless. I normally get 4G LTE, but after getting Twi5ted Lollipop, my phone doesn't even think it's ATT anymore. I can make calls with my cricket number, but I get no data. I tried going into Mobile Networks and changing Network Operators to manual and then changing it to ATT, but that doesn't seem to work. When I go into Data Usage, it has a "UPGRADE DATA SERVICE" button that takes me to a T-MOBILE website. Any ideas what to do?
FIXED thanks to captivated1971

So i am having issue. I bought a Moto X 2014 and it is clean in terms of imei. Both t-mobile says its clean and at&t says its clean. It is a AT&T variant XT1097 and like i said it is clean in terms of imei. weirdly enough T-mobile wont be picked up on the service, but AT&T will? it basically says
No Service
selected network (T-mobile) unavailable
and when i do try to select a network it says
"cant connect to network right try again later"
has anyone else have this issue with the AT&T moto trying to use it on at&t? and found a solution? if there is any solution ill take it i need all the help i can get lol
i tried reseting it, factory reseting, airplane mode, etc literally almost everything else.
Sorry.....I have similar issue..Did you find the solution? If yes could you share the info for it.

Add the T-Mobile APN.
it's discussed on the ATT thread, basically it's an issue with the lollipop radio used on our update, "fix" is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/att-xt1097-lollipop-discussion-t2951294/page36
Add the APN (as mentioned above)
Download the 4G/LTE switcher app
select WCDMA preferred as network, only HSDPA speeds but it's better than no service ^_^
I had this similar issue and it was driving me absolutely insane, the connection would be weak then it would just disconnect me altogether and then zero service. Most of the time if I were to get a call the radio would switch to HSPAP like normal then after the call it would fail to switch back to LTE then it would just completely drop connection. This is on an unlocked AT&T XT1097 running on the unlimited MetroPCS (T-Mobile) mind you.
Since February 2015 I've been dealing with this bug by using LTE switch to get by, but this got so tedious and it just irked me that I had to go thru all this crap because of poor development. This is a pretty huge bug that should've never been there to begin with. Seriously, how dare you mess with my service Google?
Anyways what I did to fix this completely was just purchase MoFoRoot for $20 (fully worth BTW) and flash the 4.4.4 AT&T modem and now I have zero issues. I used to not connect to the network on a reboot but since flashing the modem I am now able to connect and stay connected without any hassle. The connection is now solid and I can't be happier with this phone. Currently on stock 5.0.2 non-rooted with 4.4.4 modem and zero problems, now I don't need to get another phone.
Using the fast.metropcs.com APN as the T-Mobile APN doesn't allow me to connect. I have solid LTE and HSPA/HSPAP service with it and can't be happier... I take that back, I'd be happier with better indoor coverage.
Thank you makers of MoFoRoot for your lifesaver app, I am happy to have supported your fine work.
The other day I switched over to Straight Talk. I used stump root shortly after so I could use the hotspot fix to use wifi tethering. I never got it to work but was a to some 3g tethering with barnacle. My phone stopped getting 4g though and even when I put my Verizon Sim in it I get nothing but 3g. I've changed the network setting from global to lte/CDMA but nothing works. Do I need to factory reset? Very new to rooting.
My S6 Edge SM-G925V worked perfectly back in India on Vodafone Band 3 LTE until marshmallow update. In the Nougat update verizon/samsung has some issue with their cellular firmware - after that i am never able to camp to any LTE network.
It was running smooth until the G925VVZW4CPD2 (6.0.1) update, all settings are ok. I tried the other popular network sim of JIO ( Band 40) that also is same. Bigger problem is that the modem crashes far too many times on the 2g/3G also. I can see the networks bar go and come in a loop again and again, making phone useless.
Verizon surely has messed something up with the latest 7.0 update, which they deny (have contacted them). There are couple of forums in Sammobile on the same. No luck with solution.
Just yesterday got one more update of 2GB which brings it to one update over 7.0. No luck. Still no LTE camping.
Do not suggest to check the APN settings i have checked they good. Anythings else or you also facing same issue ?
Can anyone show how to get the blocked service menu (via codes) working ?
Got the same problem. I immediately updated my phone from Marshmallow to Nougat via system settings.
I got the S6 Edge Verizon. Made several readings and found out that the device is unlocked, so I bought a local LTE SIM card (SMART) here in the Philippines and inserted it to the device. I applied the appropriate APN settings for the LTE and tested the connection. No luck. I wasn't able to test the LTE connectivity when I was in Marshmallow though.
I was able to connect to the internet via 3G connection and IT WAS WAAAY TO SLOW (0.5 mbps)
I tested the same settings with the Galaxy S5 (Verizon), still with a local LTE SIM card (SMART). LTE connection was immediately established (15+ mbps... not bad). This proves that my area is covered by LTE and the problem is on the S6 Edge. Is there a way to fix this?

I have the same problem, since the update I can't connect to LTE, I've tried forcing the 4g/lte network but it simply wont connect.
so no answer to this yet huh? issue with wifes phone so i cant call her during the day but text are still getting through thank god!
I installed the new update via the smartswitch. Sw ver: NRD90M.G925VVRU4DQF3
This also did not solve the LTE camping issue on international roaming as stated in original thread, infact the modem crashes so often on 2G/3G also (GSM/UMTS)
Anyone here from verizon/samsung who can pass on the message to relevant folks that there is a major issue which they have not addressed. I am surprised such a common bug was not tested before releasing offical binary for update !! #shame.
Any updates?

Any updates on a solution for this? I finally got around to updating my G925V OTA with Verizon, and I've run into the same issue. I hope I don't have to roll back the update manually but I guess I might have to because I have searched for a solution everywhere and have tried everything but nothing works.
Exact same issue, modem crashes constantly (I'll have signal on H/H+ only, and then it drops. Signal comes back. Then drops), and I never get LTE.
Tried all the obvious solutions (e.g. reboot, factory reset, network reset, clear cache partition, boot into safe mode, reprovisioning from carrier, confiming IMEI with carrier etc.) but nothing works.
What did you guys figure out?

waiting for the solution as well. But i rolled back to 5.1.1
SM-N9208
Android 7.0
Baseband version: N9208ZTU4CQH2
This phone was bought abroad in Taiwan and I'm now using it in US with metropcs. It was working fine for the last year or so and I think it broke in 7.0. I tried reverting back to 6.0.1 but still same issue so I'm guessing something must have changed.
When it is on 4G/LTE. I can receive text, data and it works fine. But it takes like 1-2 minutes to make a call out. I can't receive any calls on 4G/LTE. Receiving calls only works on GSM mode.
I did a factory reset and also kies recovery. I also tried it without restoring any apps so it is completely fresh.
If it's an international version it won't be programmed correctly for wifi calling / volte in the US no matter what you do. I ran into that same issue with my N920i and wificalling/volte/carrieraggregation. Not that I could use wifi/volte because at&t prepaid, but still.

It did work for about a year with 4G /LTE.. Either something has changed with the carrier or that an update broke the phone. I assume using a different radio firmware would not work as well? Note 5 is old but note 8 is really expensive and I don't want to shell out so much. Might be time to use google voice and redirect all the calls if I can't get this to work.
Hi.
For those who don't know, Freedom Mobile (formerly Wind) is a T-Mobile equivalent network here in Canada, but until recently they launch a new LTE network and their site says I can use my N900A. I used their phone compatibility checker to confirm (see attachment)
However, I bought their sim to test, I get LTE data and works fast, but I can't make phone calls. It just sits there doing nothing and finally hangs. I checked the simcard on another phone and it works, so it's not the sim.
I'm using the lollipop OC1 firmware stock only. What could be the issue here? I appreciate any input.
EDIT:
My phone is unlocked (RegionLockAway) a while ago.
My *#2263# is set to Automatic.
Do calls work on the Bell, Telus, or Rogers network?
