Hi everyone,
Last month I bought a Galaxy Note (unlocked international version) for myself from Techno Trading House.
Before I received the phone I switch to ATT GoPhone from another provider. Once I received the phone I just switch the sim card to note and add the apn.
Everything working cool.
This phone came with default language of greek or polish, which i'm not sure. So i guess its European version. The phone says "Made by Samsung".
Then I decide buy another Note for my wife. From Techno Trading House. Like me my wife also switch to ATT GoPhone. This phone says "Made in Korea by Samsung". We set up the apn same like my phone and I can see 3g & H signals.
But the problem is the data does not work. When I open SpeedTest.net app the app force close 7 out 10 times. The other 3 times when I tap Begin Test, it will prompt message "Network communication Issues", "Try Again".
First I doubt it would be the sim, then we switch the sim, my wife's sim work perfectly on my phone ("Made by Samsung") and my sim had same problem in her phone ("Made in Korea by Samsung").
The only different I could see between this 2 phones is my phone say "Made by Samsung" (working perfectly) and "Made in Korea by Samsung"
(data not working).
Is anyone here having similiar problem? Or is anyone having Note which says "Made in Korea by Samsung"?
Hey, I had the same problem with galaxy S2, I don't think you are going to be able to have GoPhone data on your smartphone. What I did is I went to ATT store and replaced my sim (say that you forgot your ATT phone at home) and brake your existing sim. Try with new sim directly in your galaxy note! It should work but after some time they will turn it off because it is not a smartphone data plan! Cheers

But dude, I tried my wife's sim on my galaxy note and it worked!
I got data speed 1.3mb.
Her sim worked in my galaxy note and also on her old SE phone.
But her galaxy note does not work with her GoPhone sim and also my GoPhone sim.
retry apn
i would delete the apn in your wifes phone and re enter it as a new apn. make sure everything is the same as yours even capitalization. also make sure that gsm/wcdma is set to auto. hope this helps. if this doesn't work then maybe a factory reset would help. both sims work so there is something not set correctly in the phone.
may i ask what your apn settings are?
Wait where did you buy the note? Korean ver notes have 4g and is different hardware wise i.e. Not compatible to xda galaxy note roms. This is the only reason i can think of?

i have the korean version. i only get edge and i've tried every apn setting out there. 0.04Mbps DL 0.03 UL
made in korea and korean LTE note are different things
the made in korea for Samsung is a regular note with regular hardware. there is an Korean version of the phone with LTE.
i would delete the apn you have in your wifes phone, then insert sim , reboot then re enter the apn. make sure the use packet data box is checked and network mode set to auto. the gophone plans use GSM networks so turn it to auto just in case it isn't.
Delete the entire contents of the efs folder, reboot, you'll have data.
Make sure to save the deleted content somewhere.

Hi, I got my Moto X and I am using it in Argentina. I have to force the phone to use 2g in some areas because there are many networks problems, I could do that with my Droid HD but I have not got this options in my Moto x.
Is there an option for do that?
Try this widget: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.curvefish.widgets.network2g3gonoff&hl
Settings -> mobile networks -> use only 2g networks
Seems to be there on mine

Bought my note 5 yesterday and my hotspot and tethering settings are non existant in my settings menu. Is everyone else with this device on Sprint experiencing the same thing?
If you are missing hotspot in your settings perform a factory data reset and it will become visible
Same on ATT
you just have to go through the manual settings way

I bought my 920I in Singapore, and it is not optimized for the networks I am on, but it is able to access LTE, however I have to manually reselect LTE in the mobile network settings every time I reset the phone. It's not that it's not fast (its actually faster than what I got on my Moto X (which was a UK model, but didn't have this issue), and 3g/HSPA+ works, it's just annoying. Anyone know of a fix?

Verizon phone NOTE 9 came with no APN settings at all, so there was no data.
I tried texting APN to 611611 per https://www.tracfone.com/apn but i get a robot replying saying it cant find my number so......
3 variations with APN found here https://bestmvno.com/apn-settings/page-plus-cellular-apn-settings/
Only tracfone.vzwentp makes data to work, but MMS still does not work.
2 of 3 variations dont even save. When i modify the value for MCC or MNC and go back, entire entry disappears.
Also tried
Page Plus APN settings for Samsung Galaxy Note9
Samsung Galaxy Note9 APN settings for Page Plus United States; Galaxy Note9 Page Plus LTE APN settings; 4G APN; supports LTE; Page Plus Internet & MMS APN settings, Samsung Galaxy Note9 compatibility with Page Plus, Explain Samsung Galaxy Note9 compatibility with Page Plus, Samsung Galaxy...
apn.gishan.net
Nothing helps. DATA works MMS does not.
I believe phone is unlocked but that shouldnt matter, its on verizon network.
I tried PagePlus support but i cant chat with support. They disabled chat so i cant get help there either.
Why ? Because i cannot make APN changes during call so i have to hangup, change, verify that its not working and call again. Thats not going to work.
