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.
Hello. I have an SM-G925F which I bought from Telekom Macedonia and I am still using my number from there also but I am currently in the US and would like to use it on T-Mobile USA.
I know that the device supports all the same bands as the SM-G925T model.
The problem I am having is that when my phone is set to LTE/WCDMA/GSM in the Network Mode settings, I do not have any data connection at all, only when I make a call, I start to get a data connection but only 3G/H+. If I switch my setting to WCDMA/GSM, then I get a data connection at all times like normal but it still is only 3G/H+. I have tried two different APNs and different settings in the APN but I still cannot get a data connection at all times on the LTE/WCDMA/GSM setting and I cannot get LTE/4G at all.
After contacting T-Mobile, all they came up with is to try to have the same software reinstalled on my phone. Does anyone have any experience with this and can anyone help me?
Anyone?
Call Tmobile and have them input your phone's IMEI in their system. Ask for the APN settings as well. I am on the same boat and one call to ATT got me from H to 4G. Your phone will just show 4G, not LTE but you will get LTE speeds regardless.
I tried doing that too. I called T-Mobile a few times and they confirmed my IMEI number being on the account but still no luck. It's really weird..sometimes I get 3G/H+ on the "LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)" network mode setting on the phone but most of the time, I get NO DATA connection at all..only the signal bars.
Any Update
Did you finally figure it out? Is LTE working now?
Hi. Sorry if this has already been addressed. Did my best search but didn't find anything. I was wondering if it's possible to use this phone on carrier's like Metro PCS? For some reason, I can't connect at all. It just gives me the "Not a Verizon SIM" when I put the SIM in. I tried with cricket mobile and was able to connect, so not sure why metro doesn't work at all.
I've tried apn settings. Tried to format, restart, etc. Metro wasn't able to activate it over the phone and suggested I go to the store, but upon calling the store, they told me they don't activate Verizon phones. Could this just be an issue with metro? Or has anyone gotten it to work? Thanks!
Is the phone unlocked? Mine is unlocked, I also get the message "Not a Verizon Sim", but the message doesn't affect my ability to connect using another providers sim.
So I've been unlocked on Sprint galaxy s8 plus Sm-G955U and switched to MetroPCS. I flashed this root firmware from this forum for root. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...root-g955u-g955u1-snapdragon-sampwnd-t3658911 . Did the mps code. My service was working had to reset my network many times but I had service. Now for about three days I get emergency calls only in top left corner . I try to make a call and it says not registered to network. I have signal bars . My number reads. My sim is working in different phone. I checked my imei number it's original. I tried air plane mode , LTE to 3g/2g, checked a website to to see I was blacklisted it was clean. I switched firmwares. My voicemail pops up when I insert my card but I can't call it. Tried MetroPCS US LTE and MetroPCS apn can't connect to t mobile network operators. I'm lost. Is there a repair network for this device? Does anyone know how to get my MetroPCS service working again or why it's saying emergency calls only and I can't register to a network? Please help. I checked blacklist because I bought this phone someone and thought maybe that was the problem. https://imei24.com/blacklist_check/
https://m.sim-unlock.net/imei_check/blacklist/
Can anyone help me please?
If reflashing the firmware didn't help, you may need to search for someone to use a box to repair your network. A quick Google search showed me that there are options available. Just search "repair network SM-G955U"
Good luck!
