[Q] Problems with my unlocked Bell HD7 (t9295) on AT&T

If you don't already know, the unlocked Bell HD7's 3G bands are the needed bands required for AT&T (850,1900). I received my unlocked Bell HD7 from Negri Electronics today and I was super excited to get it going on AT&T here in The States but ran into a very weird problem...
Basically, I can't connect to 3G/HSDPA/EDGE internet. Now, the weird thing is that it SHOWS I'm using AT&T and that indeed I am on HSDPA (see pics below). Calling and messaging work fine BTW. If I want to do anything requiring data, the 3G/HSDPA/EDGE connection won't work and I'm forced to use wifi.
I'm tired of hard-reseting and flipping switches on and off... I just hard-reset the bastard one last time and now I wait for your advise. What do I do? Thanks in advance

Since it runs on the Bell firmware you must enable the data roaming. In the first pic that you posted it looks like you have it off. Give it a try and report.

can you post the "More Info" result ???

try downloading "connection setup" from the marketplace in the htc apps section, run it and you should be good to go.

Seems silly, but did you actually setup your APNs?
Not sure I saw that in the pics.
Good Luck,

VoLTE update

I have an unlocked Phone running on VZW. Should I expect that at some point I will get VoLTE.....or should I just return it while I can and get a VZW version?

Did that a month ago. Waiting for the update 5.1 to be able to use it

Running stock 5.1 now on motorola-purchased phone. My VZW account is provisioned for "advanced calling" but not seeing it function on the phone at this point. I know my Droid Turbo was pushed a VZW update when VoLTE was available. I assume that is not supposed to be the process on a N6.

Try following the instructions in these threads. I have it currently working on 5.1

Also the VoLTE feature only works for Verizon to Verizon calling and with other phones that have the feature. The best part of the update is the simultaneous Voice/Data capabilities.

Can't enable Chat in Google Messages

I am trying 'Chat' features in the Google Messages application, however I can't seem to do so. I see the option under Settings->Advanced, however, when I press on it, the app remains on 'Excuse the wait...'
I tried this multiple times and even a factory reset of the phone. Did anyone else have problems enabling RCS?
I am on Vodafone Romania.

I have the same problem. I'm on pixel XL 2 Rogers Canada.

Sorry to bump/necro, but any updates on this? Or does anyone know of a ROM that works with RCS?

Messages has had RCS support for ages. Your Carrier needs to enable it on their service though.

I guess my question is if I'm on a custom ROM will it still work? I assume TMobile can't push the universal protocol through on a custom ROM.

As far as i know it's all server side. Have you checked with your carrier to see if they support it?

I know they have started rolling it out, but I'm reading mixed things about what phones support it. Due for an upgrade soon anyway, but was hoping to test it out.

Hidden menu

Anyone know the phone app key sequence for the unlocked Note 9 hidden menu. The *#0*# does not work.

If you can't access there is an app in the app store that might work. Haven't had to use it for awhile. I don't remember the name but try googling Galaxy shortcuts or something. If you find the right app I don't know if it will work as I have the sim unlocked version.

Works on Sprint looked. Didn't realize the Note 9 had a grip sensor. The Lg V30 also has this test menu must be an Android thing.

[Q]Amazon emails always open in Chrome

I always have the pop up asking me which browser I'd like to open a URL with in Samsung stock email app. It works all the time and I primarily pick Samsung internet when prompted.
However, for emails that I receive from Amazon if I chose Samsung internet as depicted below they still open in Chrome.
Any ideas why ? Thanks.View attachment 4634250

Funny how when asking a question it triggers ones brains to actually look into the matter more. LoL. I think I figured it out in case someone else wanted to know..
It was the below settings defaults menu that I changed to remedy my issue. It was originally set to "in this app" and I changed it to the below "always ask". Now I get prompted again to pick which browser or app to use to open URL with.

I disabled Chrome browser myself. I like the ad blocking and Samsung Pass features available in the Samsung browser.
Glad you figured it out!!
