Xiaomi Mi 5 - access point settings issue - no mobile data - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hi,
My provider upgraded their network and sent me a new sim card.
With the new sim card I can only call and text, but there is no data - I cannot connect to the internet (only wifi).
I called the provider and we tried to manually set the Access Point Name (APN), but we failed.
In the APNs settings I see the following message: "Access Point Name setting are not available for this user".
When I try to edit access point (3 dots and +) and try to save the new settings, it also fails - there is no profile/access point name.
I did the following:
factory reset
updated TWRP
updated my firmware to the latest Dev version
flashed the latest LOS again (I had the latest update before)
It didn't help. Still no data, still cannot edit the APNs.
Can you edit the APNs on your phones? Any suggestions?

Well, in our country; we make our APN mods as - - - name: your sim card provider's name and Apn is internet. And Apn protocol is IPv4/IPv6 - - - use it like that and send me message if it has gone worked or not

I cannot edit the APN - that's the problem. When I try to add the APN and save it, nothing is being saved.
Btw
My phone is not rooted.

So you can make new apn?

No I cannot.
In Access point names settings I see:
"Access Point Name setting are not available for this user"
When I click "+" I see edit access point. I can edit name, apn, proxy ect, but when I click save, nothing is being saved.

Hmm... Interesting... I have never seen such a bug... So... Can you recover your data, video and your photos and reset your phone to the factory settings?

As I mentioned in my first post I did the following:
factory reset
updated TWRP
updated my firmware to the latest Dev version
flashed the latest LOS again (I had the latest update before)
I also flashed the previous LOS built. Still the same.

I did. I believe that it's the problem of my handset.
I tried the sim card in a different phone and it was working.
My operator also reset my account and disabled and enabled mobile data for it, did some other tests and it's still not working.
My problem is that the "access points name" settings are not available on my phone!!!

Hi, did you ever resolve the issue or find a fix? I'm having the same issue now. Thanks

Have you tried Settings -> Mobile Data -> Mobile Network Settings -> Access Point Names -> APNs select the Menu (three dots) choose New APN. You can enter all the relevant information there.

Wow, something has messed with your phone. Assuming Maximus downloaded correctly and you checked it MD5 to verify, then maybe your recovery may be causing some issues. Some versions of TWRP are writing in the wrong partition and resulting in missing OS, etc. This version might help. If this doesn't help, then you might have to go back to the stock rom to check if the issue is there. If it is, then you might have to send in your phone for servicing.

I've tried installing it with twrp and clockwork, I used twrp first and that's when it happened but clockwork still installs and se problem. But I was thinking the best thing would be to go right back to stock

I would give the different version of TWRP a try first, then if it failed, I'd go back to stock. It may save you some time and steps.

[Q] data connection issue since lollipop update

Hi All,
Wondering if you can help, since I updated my moto g 2nd gen with the latest update I cannot get a data connection, I have done a factory reset but still nothing. Checked my APN settings and they are correct. I have had a look on google and there does appear to be users with the same issue but no real fix that I can see other than changing it to a different sim slot but only one sim slot works on my device so I cant even test it! Any other ideas or has anybody else had this issue?
Thanks
delete all APN ... reboot test...if the phone didn't autoconfig the APN, you do it.
SS yours APN config before deleted... and check if the parameter of APN is correct by google in it....

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?

No Service/Signal with Android Pie

So I bought my XZ1C in the US, flashed Pie (tried SG, TH, FR) with newflasher/flashtool, since the official US Pie is not out yet, all files except Simlock.ta. All the firmwares showed full signal some time (3~5 minutes, give or take) after boot on, but none of them were able to have data access, and phone calls cannot be made. Xperia Companion doesn't fix anything. Rebooting doesn't fix anything. Same if I take out my sim and replug in, same if I choose WCDMA/GSM or GSM only, same if I reset network settings, and same if I flash the baseband files + OEM.ta from US 47.1.A.16.20. When I go in to the testing (*#*#4636#*#* if I recall correctly), all numbers are 0, indicating no issues with the sim card itself. IMEI is showing up correctly, and the phone even recognizes my carrier. If I rollback to Oreo, everything just works fine, whether it's US, HK, FR, DE, or whatever. It's been really depressing, and I appreciate if anyone could help me out with what is happening here. BTW, my carrier is CTExcel, based on T-Mobile in the US. Thanks.
Does you've try a factory reset after upgrade to Pie?

Have you checked the APN settings? maybe your vesrion is failing to download the correct settings.
Look up what they should be for CTExcel, then apply them manually.

Well, I don't think that's necessary cuz I flashed everything using newflasher/flashtool, including reset.

I'll give it a shot, but I doubt it's because of that. My carrier never required APN settings on iOS or Android Oreo; all it has in APN is something called "alpha" on my iPhone 5s.
I haven't the problem at all. which are reported.... OK... first at all, I have received a loop of reboot during the Sony logo.. After that I press power and Volume up for a few seconds... the phone vibrate some times (normally its means factory reset). After that it was started and I'm at the beginning...

Ok, I used my home-country SIM card, and enabled roaming, it worked, with AT&T network connected. Changing the APN to my US carrier's didn't solve the problem, however, so I suppose I shall just contact my carrier then. Thanks, bro.

HELP Phone can't register to network after root

Hi guys, I'm in real mess here !
I tried rooting my phone using the magisk patch method, everything went as planned except I forgot to uncheck the "Auto reboot" mark in odin.
so after flashing the patched firmware my phone went on bootloop.
I did later reflash it properly and everything works fine including root, Except it's always on "Emergency calls only"
My SIM card works fine, I can use WIFI, I can read IMEI everything looks just fine but I can't register to network.
I've tried reflashing stock firmware, another firmware, wipe cache wipe data,.... nothing works.
I desperately need help guys if anyone has any idea!
Try another SIM card if working. Also check the APN settings of your mobile network. You may have to manually enter the correct APN settings.
Hi Guys,I have the same problem in my rooted sumsung j7 prime. Someone kindly assist
