Bought a global version and was setting it up. MVNO's APN was already there, so just used it.
Tried to register some apps, but realised no SMS or calls can come through. Tried sending a SMS and also no luck.
Data works just fine and I tripled checked band frequencies to ensure my MVNO and the X2 Pro were compatible. (If anyone wants to check, it's UQ Mobile).
Asked on Reddit and was pointed here. Is there anything I can do or should I just accept that I only have data?

my random issues with sending/receiving sms have been solved (so far) on at&t. i went in to an at&t corp. store and had my old cingular 3g sim swapped for a new at&t one (CSA looked at my phone and asked what it was... i mention the 'tilt' and he said "you'd know more about that then i would, we don't generally know until the day before release"). only setting that was changed was the voicemail number that is called to check. i was still having connectivity issues with calls and sms. my final solution (haha) was to take the band settings off of auto for both gsm and network freq. i've been keeping it set to wcdma with the 850/1900mhz gsm/utms settings.
does this make sense? has anyone else on at&t in a 3g area had issues with calls or sms/voicemail? is/was your settings set to auto?
I have a Moto X pure edition on t-mobile simple choice plan. I'm in London and have not received any texts or emails notifying me that I am abroad and can now use t-mobiles free texting and data or paid plans. I tried a few things, rebooting, reset APN settings and changing apn settings to ipv4 and using epc.tmobile.com as the address. Nothing so far. I can look up the networks and see T-mobile but can't register. My phone's clock also didn't change, had to do it manually.
Need help. I'll try and call t-mobile soon.
This is from my memory with a Nexus 4, but should be the same basic idea. Try going into Settings, Networks, Cellular Networks, let it load then select T-Mobile's local partner. Might take some trial and error to get the right one if there are multiple local carriers around, but shouldn't take more than a couple minutes.
Tried that already on the phone with the T-mobile rep. none of it worked always the same error "This connection is not available at this time. Please try again later."
Not sure if this will help, but you do have roaming enabled right? I remember with my Nexus 4, when I traveled internationally, I had to enable roaming for my texts and data to work.

I had the same problem while travelling to the Caribbean. I tried all the settings (even dialed #766 to enable Data Roaming). I never got it to work even after opening tickets with T-Mobile. I always had Cell service to make calls , but there was an exclamation on the bar(s) icon indicating there was an issue with data.
Hopefully you can get it working.
I haven't had ANY service at all. No texting no voice call no data. Nothing. Phone shows that there's emergency calls only. Was working fine at home and in DC. I have cellular data on and roaming and have tried messing the the APN settings some. Didn't work so I reset to default.
So I recently got a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4. As we know, it's unlocked 100% without any special root methods or entering in codes into the dial pad. With that being said, I popped in an LTE Straight Talk SIM card, transferred my old number to the new SIM and configured the APN and for a long while it was working fine with no issues. Then out of the blue, I had no data. It absolutely quit without warning. I go to check the APN settings I had previously and they were gone. I had redone everything and saved the settings. However, when I go back out a menu, no Straight Talk APN. I did the same thing again....and once again no APN settings. Just the default T-Mobile LTE APN.
So I'm at a loss. It was working fine previously and now I cannot set APN settings. I have reset the phone more than once (reluctantly). Any thoughts? Any help would be appreciated since I'm paying those bastards $45 and some change a month for service I cannot get. Also as a note, I can receive and send text messages with no problem. Calling number results in "you are not registered on a network," but I know the fix for that.

Try setting the APN with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tracfone.straighttalk.stdatasettings
Sounds like your phone got black listed. Did you buy it from Tmobile? If you bought it from some one else it was either a stolen phone or the previous own stopped paying for it.

I had bought the phone from a local gas station owner (who had 2 other T-Mobile phones with him). It was working while he showed me the phone (he had gotten several text message and Facebook updates). He then reset it. I bought a Straight Talk SIM kit and went to work. I had working data until the next day. I had played around with some more internal settings, like updating the touch sensitivity and more. Everything was working until I refreshed the Wi-Fi antennae. Don't think that would have anything to do with the 4G/LTE radios or regular antennas. Overall, it was working, so I don't see how it could just magically stop.

If he bought the phone on a lease from T-MOBILE and never fully paid it off T-Mobile would black list it. Or if he sold you a lost\stolen phone.
You can contact T-Mobile or check the IMEI on one of those checker sights to see if it has been blacklisted.

You can check to see if you're blacklisted by visiting the T-Mobile website and using their IMEI checker. If you're blacklisted you would not be able to place calls. I will attach sample AT&T APN that works for me. I'm on Cricket and not StraightTalk but it may work for you.
For all who helped out on this post, THANK YOU! I figured what my issue was. SIM card is fine and the data settings work as long I don't configure the MCC & MNC settings. Changing the MNC from 260 to 410 is what caused my saved APN to disappear. Not sure why that happens, but if any of you have an idea of why, direct me to the thread that explains this or if you know, quote this reply. And another thing, I am able to send texts and make calls, but due to the location I was in, texts sent at half the speed of smell and making a call was impossible due the phone claiming I was "not on a registered network" even though ST is a network (duh). I have no service issues on my Note 3 N900A when I that. Anyone think it could be because AT&T's device antennas differ from that of a T-Mobile Note 4? Personally, I don't think they would since they are both GSM and operate on the same bands (I would think), even though the Note 4 has "newer" technology. Not really worried about data, texts or calls since I have Wi-Fi in said location.
Again, thanks to those that helped me out. And, again, if anyone has any ideas to the information said above, by all means give your say or direct me to where there is substantial info.
Received my OnePlus 3T yesterday. Love the phone and all seems to be working well. The only problem I'm having is with MMS. I've tried two different texting programs (Chomp and Android Messages) and neither can send or receive a photo.
The APN was set up correctly by default. I also tried creating an APN with the same settings and still doesn't work. Also, my APN settings perfectly match the APN settings on my wife's Honor 8 phone -- she can send and receive MMS but I can't.
Finally, I called my carrier (Telus / Canada) and we went through the settings one at a time and confirmed all is well. They were stumped. Since it is not a Telus purchased phone, there wasn't anything else they could do.
Any thoughts on what could be causing problems with sending / receiving pictures with MMS? Anybody else having this problem?
Help is appreciated -- thanks!
Hi all
I have been looking around and browsed all similar threads but I have not found an answer
Can anyone that uses MI Mix on Verizon (successfully) with working data, calls and SMS help me.
Like tell me what ROM are you using, APN (if manually input), VoLTE on/off, what network mode is it on (CDMA-UMTS..etc)
I cannot get for the life of me to get it to work correctly. I have tried all the Lineage variations posted here and I can either have calls and no data or "No service"
Was thinking to try MIUI 9.5.1 since it just came out but I do not want any of the chinese apps that I won't use or menus half translated.
I will really appreciate any help.
Thank you
I am able to get Messaging and Data successfully, but no incoming or outgoing calls. I spent two days with their advanced Global support only to hear the IMEI isn't compatilble with Verizon. Then why does the data and messaging work?
I have a mi mix and Verizon work fine in my phone no problem everything works
It'll work if you live in an area with Verizon Band 4.
