[Q] Disappearing Roaming Settings

I used the SIM Unlock via API just to know how to do it. Didn't mess with any setting by dialing *#*#4636#*#*.
Now, I have no roaming settings under Mobile Network Options and am seeing "Sheldon Mobile" as a 4G GSM Provider and also instead of "Sprint" I'm seeing "Sheldon Mobi" in the top right while placing a call. Tries multiple sense ROMs and even an RUU to still see the same thing.
Any ideas? I use Modaco Toolkit to change the lock screen text, maybe that has something to do with it.

Bump.

Did you try ##786# click menu and then reset? It resets network logistics back to factory.

Also, think if mode is set to automatic, that roaming settings are disabled.

Okay, that got rid of the Sheldon Mobi in the call screen and under available gsm networks.
Still don't understand where the Domestic voice roaming, domestic data roaming and other settings went.
Maybe something is messed up within the settings app itself?

Not sure I never used that SIM Unlock tool. But maybe since you are in GSM mode, there is no Roaming options. DEV's for the CDMA ROM's add that feature.

I SIM Unlocked another HTC ONE I owned and the roaming settings remained, not sure what could have caused it here...
I've RUU'd and tried a Stock Rooted ROM as well and those don't fix it either...

Hotspot quick settings toggle

Has anyone been able to get the hotspot quick settings toggle icon to appear? It showed up automatically on my N4 after I installed the lollipop update. So far, its not showing up on my N6. I've turned hotspot on several times but still no icon.
Google really needs to add a way to customize that menu.

Not sure why yours isn't showing up... the only thing I've changed which might be related is adding the following to build.prop
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Hope this helps.

Mine didn't show up on my GPS Nexus 6 running on AT&T until I made this change.

I guess that's the reason then. I wasn't planning on rooting my phone but between this and the encryption, I might not have a choice. Thanks for the responses guys. I have no idea why Google would restrict that convenient button by default.

Thanks, the hotspot toggle showed up as soon as I added this to my build.prop.

I got mines once I turn it on without root and build.prop edit..

What do you have to do to have it normally pop up in quick settings? Is it supposed to show up after the first use?

What carrier are you on? Maybe that's the difference? I have been unable to get it to show up on both AT&T and Verizon.

AT&T and Verizon phones both check your subscription before allowing the hotspot and this is why the toggle doesn't show up on its own

That must be the reason since that check is what the build.prop change disables. I still think its silly that it affects the button though. My plan allows tethering. Can't I have the quick settings button and when I press it, it can check my subscription just like the deeper settings menu option?

[Q] N6 won't restore from google play store (new flashes)

Whenever I flashed a rom from for my Note 2, after a wipe, google would give me the option to restore from a previous device backup.
No matter what I do, I can't do this with the Nexus 6. Makes flashing roms a lot harder, having to add the apps manually and all passwords, etc. It still wants to restore from my Note 2! Don't even have the option for N6. Had the phone three weeks.
Yes, I have the proper boxes check for back up to Google.. (I think)
Anyone else having this?
Maddening..

"i think" doesnt sound very much like you do have both boxes checked. do you?

Yes, I have both checked. Unless their is one buried 10 levels deep or something else obscure.
Backup my data is checked and Automatic restore is checked.

This is what I have..

Same problem here. Posted a similar thread. Keep seeing backups from my note 3 and none from N6

I think I figured it out...
The ROM I use Defaults to MetroPCS as the carrier.. no way to select tMobile (my carrier) until after the setup
When I go to google play store, it says "tMobile Nexus 6"
So I'm guessing it's the ROM not finding the career correctly and labeling the phone as such to the first run in google play during setup.
Again a guess, haven't tested it with a different rom
Is there a way of forcing the "new phone app download" after the initial setup was run?

T-Mobile APN issue/Question

The only thing I manually added and as shown - currently selected is the "Fix" - APN to enable Wi-Fi MMS pic send/receive which seems to work fine as found in another thread in these forums.
Here is my question. Should ALL these APN's be in my phone as follows:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
I am on a ROM and not sure if they came with it or I somehow got them in otherwise.
One of the reason's I ask is that my girlfriend's T-Mobile Avant first off, only has ONE T-Mobile APN period in this section.
2nd reason is she is complaining of getting duplicate texts from my phone (both text & MMS pic sends) from time to time so I am wondering if this is due to having so many APN's as noted in above screenshot?
Thanks

Pic is not showing

Bump!
I'm bumping this cause I am interested in the answer too. I think my WiFi Calling is messing up...

Pic still not showing and since op never came back he probably figured out his rom was the issue.. As Tmobile stayed many times mms over WiFi will only work over WiFi calling. If ur trying to say it still sends it cause it sending thru mobile data still.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Apologize as I have no idea what happened to the pic from my OP. I will check my phone but believe I have since deleted it. Sure it's in my email somewhere as I usually send it to myself after taking a screenshot from one gmail account to the other.
Anyhow, I have resolved my issue by moving on to a different ROM. I will gladly share my current APN if helpful to anyone.
Still having issues with T-Mobile's Network itself, a whole different story, but can confirm that I have "WiFi Calling" & "MMS over WiFi" functional now. :good:

Go to the apn setup, do a reset to default on the apns, then a couple of tmo apn will show up, next, use the one that works best for you, and simply remove the others.
Good luck!

Were the inverted triangle is above the toggle on switch. Punch it for the drop down menu.
Select the correct value as shown.

I changed it to the settings and restarted phone and still provisioned.

Clear Sim Toolkit data
Network reset and clear system cache.
AT&T may need to do a reset on their end.
That's all I got.

I don't know. The Note 10+'s I have were already configured for VoLTE when I got them as they ran on VoLTE from the start. Never really thought about it until talk of the shutdown started.
If you have AT&T tech support call advanced tech support; some of then know what they're doing.

Check your Access point settings too.
AT&T APN settings
On my AT&T NXTGENPHONE profile I found that instead of "hipri" (high priority) it had "fota" (Firmware Over-The-Air) which I don't want.
So I created a new profile and tested it. Instant download speed increase it seems... still testing.
APN typedefault,mms,supl,hipri
My original profile was set as IPv4/IPv6, which I used on my new profile instead of the AT&T suggested IPv4 only.
APN protocolIPv4
If you do this create a new profile with a different name so you can retain your original one too.
Don't forget to fill in any relevant spaces on the new and leave the blank ones blank unless you know better.

Have your carrier do a reset on their end.
