Vibrant on different data network - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all.
I have unlocked Vibrant. I am traveling to Romania. I bought Orange Sim card, it works in my Vibrant, but I don't get any data service, does anybody knows how to make it work?
Thank you.

that's probably because you don't have the APN settings in your phone. either google their APN or just call Orange and ask them to give you the information that you need.

Yes, you are going to have to call them and ask them for the APN settings. Thats what I did and I am using the MySimpleMobile sim card.

[Q] data not turning on

hi there
my gf bought a htc legend when we were living in australia on vodafone network and all worked fine.we have just come back to the uk and have put a new sim in on 3 network.it will make calls text and conect to wifi but will not allow data traffic it just says connecting on the mobile data tab but never does.the sim card allows data has i have tried it in my phone.
any ideas of what i need to do,is it because its from australia,will it work over in the uk,should it,or do i need to do something to the phone to allow data,
any help would be good.
thanks
is the phone unlocked? can it run another sim other then the vodafone one?
or in youre new location youre still on vodafone network?
most likely the phone doesn`t know how to configure the apn for the data
google your network`s android apn and go to settings wireless networks mobice connection set apn create a new one or change the existing one while the phones mobile connection is turned on
Yep, I can confirm this problem may be fixed by identifying and filling in your APN for your network.
I had the same problem, as well, this fixed it.
Thanks allot for the help guys, done it and it works fine now.

[Q] Dual sim chinese S3 clone roaming problem

Hi
My phone is Star OneM92 dual sim Chinese S3 clone running 4.1
I'm experiencing a problem with my Virgin (UK) sim. The phone is automatically throwing it in to roaming mode. The "r" sign comes up at the signal bar.
I've checked with Virgin and they confirm no roaming charges apply as its a domestic sim. Of course when I told them the phone is copy they immediatly threw a fit and I got a lecture how I should never of you one in the first place.
Its dam annoying when I make a call. I have to confirm I want to use a roaming sim.
I've tried different positions and other sim cards from O2 and Vodafone and they work fine.
Can anyone shed any light on to this and advise how I can get around this.
By the way, I know I shouldn't of got a clone and yes I'm a noob and all that. Apologies for my inexperience in advance

You need to configure the APN's, you can google it "AT&T APN settings" in your galaxy go to "settings->in wireless & network look for 'more'->mobile networks->Access Point Names" there you can add a new APN.

Sprint unlocked my phone but no data

Hey there,
So I called sprint and told them I need them to unlock my phone for international travel and they did. I tested it with AT&T and it worked for phone connections but not for data. Any idea how to make ATT data connection to work?
APN settings?
So I need to enter specific APN settings for each sim card/carrier I use?
Depends on provider. On ting.com I did, now on byowireless it just works. Both resell T-Mobile.
Google for your carrier's apns settings, and add them.

Why can't I send SMS messages, or get cellular data?

Trying to use my new Poco.
I have a dual sim set up, both sims are switched on. But I fail to send SMS messages (But I can receive them)
Also I can't get any cellular data.
Do I have to activate something?
My sims work fine in my old phone.
Please help other wise this phone is useless as it is.
Try different sims on your Poco. If they work, it's your sim cards otherwise RMA your phone.
Copy the access point name APN from your old phone. You will find it under network settings / data or similar. The APN will probably include the name of your service provider. Then transfer to your new phone.
Thanks
My sim card wasn't that old, but I tried a new one and it's fine now
