hi guys, i've been having a problem about my network. sometimes my data isn't working at all but it doesn't really says that it's disconnected to fix it i have to reboot. I tried different roms but my data still drops sometimes like 4 times a day.
so is there any chance that i broked the phone's data antenna even my calls still work? i have the phone for 6 months and this is the first time this has happened. i really don't want to exchange my phone to tmobile but if that's the only way to try then that's what i'll do.

I would suggest getting a new SIM card. In most cases a new sim card will fix that problem. I work for T-Mo and that's usually a good fix. If that doesnt work then try a factory reset. If that doesn't work then warranty. Good luck!!

yeah i have done a factory reset. So i'll ask t mobile for a new sim card?

Just go to a store and ask for a sim replacement. Since its a damaged sim they should just replace it for free.

I don't need to call them? i'll just directly go to a tmobile?

Yes sir. They will activate your number on to it and put it in the phone. Off you go. That simple.

When you bought your Vibrant, check in the box, there should be 2 sim cards.
i just called t mobile today and they said that my sim card is old which is weird. my sim card came with the phone 6 months ago. is there really a new sim card?
So they said i do need to change my sim card, will my number be changed?

If he upgraded to the vibrant and the rep happened to leave the sim in there then there would be another one. There is typically only one sim per box.Usually if you are an existing customer and you upgrade the rep will take the sim out of the box and keep it.

Nope. Number will stay the same. They just activate the new card with your number and deactivate the old. Yes, they came out with a new version of the sim card a while ago.

oh ok thanks. i really forgot to ask why did they put this sim if it's not compatible with the phone. I didn't know that they have a newer sim card.
thanks!

Well the one that you have should work fine. But like anything else they occasionally go bad. They updated the sims when they started upgrading the network. Just gives a better connection on 3g/4g.

I have a Vibrant that i use as a back up phone since i am using the Galaxy Tab 7.7 as my everyday phone. I am using Straight Talk sim on the tab. I wanted to use the Vibrant this weekend and now i get a message when trying to set up the Straight Talk APN "Insert SIM card to access network services". The Vibrant is unlocked so i dont see that being the issue. Any suggestions, i dont want the Vibrant to have gone to waste

I had my Sim socket go bad back on my tilt bit it was after years I hope for your sake you just need a new Sim, stop by your local store and get a new one... Hope it works out for you

Finally got it to work. I re-installed Bionix rom, then rebooted phone with SIM, then just edited the apn, what inhad done was created a new apn but kept getting issues. So for now its all good.

Just get a simcard and don't have it activated
What did you do with your previous sim card? Like ^^^^^ said, leave it in the slot.
I am a bit confussed. Trying to get a straight talk s2 to work on t-mo for my brother. Rooted and running the collective rom on the phone. popping his t-mo card in the phone does not bring up a sim locked message, and I get no carrier signal. What do I need to do to get voice signal. does data work on this with a t-mo card? Do I tell him to move on?
Thanks

I've had this problem too, so try this. Click on roaming, and if that doesn't work, take you sim card out and put it back in, and see if that. good luck! Ultimately I think it's a card problem, and if it happens to me again, I'm going to Verizon and getting another sim
