Hi
I have a s6 from Metro and the phone is unlocked. The issue I am having is the phones are connecting to the hotspot from s6 but not getting any connection. I tried the same sim card(simple mobile) in another phone and the hotspot works fine also tried another sim card from diff carrier in the s6 that also works but for some reason the simple mobile sim is giving issue for hotspot on the s6 even though the apn is correct and I am getting 4G lte. Any help would be great. Thanks
Bump..
Getting same issue on another phone(S4 Active). Phone is getting error for H20 hotspot but not for another carrier, but when I put the H2O sim in different phone it works.

Hi,
Hopefully someone can help here - I'm assuming its an isolated situation since no one at Verizon (US) or M1 (Singapore) can help me with. I have a HTC One (Verizon) that works perfectly in the states. I am overseas for a few months and confirmed with VZ Global Services that the phone is pre-unlocked so any local carrier will work.
I chose M1...everything on the phone works great, calling / SMS / Internet / Data...etc. However I am given this error anytime I try and turn on the Mobile Hotspot or USB Tethering:
"None VZW UICC present
A Verizon Wireless LTE SIM card is not detected. Mobile Hotspot/Mobile broadband Connect service needs a Verizon SIM card in order to work."
note:: Hotspot works perfectly in the states....
I've spent a lot of time on with VZ Global Services and at the M1 store here. VZ was not helpful, as soon as I admitted to using a SIM that was not theirs, they stopped all support. At M1 store we tried a variety of SIM cards; prepaid, postpaid...etc. None of them fixed the problem. Only suggestion left is to call HTC. So thats why I posted this in the general HTC rather than Verizon specific.
If anyone has any idea how to go about troubleshooting this it would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I should add - the phone is stock, not Rooted, APN changed to sunsurf (which is what M1 uses).
I am having the exatct same issue right now. I am in India and I have a prepaid SIM card from Idea and when I try and use the mobile hotspot I get the same error.
When activating the Hotspot function the device does an entitlement check against Verizon's server. Without a Verizon Sim it will automatically fail and not allow hotspot usage. Only way around it is rooting and removing the entitlement check or using a custom non-verizon rom.
i belong to India, i have htc one max,and i have also facing same problem,please tell me any solution if possible
Hi, looking for some assistance (again). I have had issues with getting the correct data network on my phone.
The phone is a HTC One M7, I bought it sim free in the UK.
I have put a virgin mobile sim card in the phone and the only network that comes up is EXT, when I try to connect it states that my SIM is not allowed a connection to this network. This only happens where I stay which is out of town. I had the same issue with a TELUS sim too. The only one that works is a Rogers one but I only get EDGE.
In the city they all work fine giving me LTE or HSPA+.
Please could somebody assist?
Hi guys,
My toy is a samsung note N 9600 and its factory unlocked. Last week ported out from T-mobile to keep my original number and facing a wried issue.
The day I ported out from T-mobile, VZW network couldnt be recognized when I tried to activate the VZW sim card. "No network connection." and no call or text can be made. However, after I RESET my device to factory model, it SUCCESSFULLY recognized VZW and LTE function works well. Sounds wried? The story doesnt end here.
Yesterday after I turned off the VZW sim card by accident-- n9600 is a dual sim card which allows you to turn either sim card off-- the network connection lost again, im not talking about LTE connection, but all network service including internet, phone call and text function. Tried a lot to get the connection back but failed. Guess what? RESET, THEN VZW comes back!!! Being driven by curiosity, I turned off the sim card agian, and then, as my expect, no network connection. Ok, rest---works---turning off sim card---no connection---reset……
I am really annoyed by this and have no idea why it is. So if anyone of you have clue of it, plz let me know. Thank you in advance!

No one experienced same issue before?
Just turned this on, then inserted AT&T sim and it asked to reboot. Once done I was able to put in APN then turned on hotspot and set it all up. I got data on the phone, laptop can connect to hotspot but no internet. Playing with all the settings and still no internet on tethered devices. Did unlock version somehow download AT&T firmware and block tethering? Help?!
My unlocked phones have been doing this on at&t for a couple of months now. I think at&t just wised up to it somehow, but I'm unsure.
I am using hot spot right now..I do all day...using the FE on AT&T. No problems at all...but...I believe it depends on what plan you have!
I am on the unlimited elite so maybe that's the reason. Not sure why you would have to put in an APN??? THat should be automatically enabled when the SIM is installed.
I've been a Sprint user for years and have used PdaNet to tether my phone to my pc using usb and having internet that way. I'm currently using a Galaxy S10+ and doing this, does this app work with this model phone too? I'd like to upgrade to the S21 Ultra but want to make sure this method still works. Are there any issues with PdaNet on the S21 Ultra, or specifically with Sprint and this model phone when using the app? Thank you.
I'm thinking of testing this, but I want to find out if the test will be relevant to you.
If you are using a Sprint SIM card, or if you are connecting to a Sprint tower, maybe we'll have different results.
I'm a Sprint customer pre-merger. I have the S21 Ultra. I now use a T-Mobile SIM card, *NOT* Sprint SIM card. They configured my phone to connect to T-mobile towers. I live near several strong T-mobile towers. I can connect via 5G or 4G, but I turned off 5G to save battery because I'm usually connected to home wifi.
What is your situation in terms of type of SIM card and which towers you connect to?
I have an old LG G6 phone that still has a Sprint SIM card, and still connects to the old Sprint towers. The performance is quite different.
Anyone have any luck? I have an s21 ultra with legacy sprint plan running a sprint sim, not the updated T-Mobile Sim. I have tried PDA Net but I believe the phone was just passing along the home wifi connection and not the data connection on the phone.
