Few days back i have disconnected in mobile network setting use of pocket data.
Now I'm in new billing period and did go back to enable use of pocket data.
But nothing happened no H+ with arrows nothing.
I did pull battery out and turn back phone on and still nothing.
Did any one had the same problem if so what's the solution please?
thanks you
Check again with your Network Carrier.
Check that you still have an APN, its correct and it's selected for use.
Phone menu / settings / wireless & networks / mobile networks / access point names
Also ensure that you haven't just selected GSM only, try Network mode "auto", if not already.
Also make sure you are not roaming.

Going on vacation in Mexico.. is there a way turn my data and phone off and just use wifi so tmobile doesn't charge me?

Uhh.. go to settings > wireless and network> then uncheck the things i think thats it.
but when you are traveling, put it on airplane mode? then when you get to wifi connect to wifi.
Go to wireless and network>mobile network and make sure data roaming is checked off. There's also a setting under message settings to disable mms retrieval while roaming. If you don't plan on using the phone to make calls just take the sim card out.
why do i have a "R" signal on top of my signal strength. i have not enabled data roaming. i no longer have any internet. as far as i know the apn is correct and i am on XXK14 modem. Its not ROM issue as well as i have already flashed official rom but the problem still persists. It may be a stupid question but its wearing me down.
funny thing is when i enable roaming i get data although only GPRS.
any ideas????
The "R" is for network roaming (not data). May change to another network if lost connectivity.
Menu / wireless & networks / mobile networks / network operators ..... and change back to your "home" network.
Edit: I'm assuming type not actually roaming though.....

thanks so freaking much. i checked the apn it had three networks setting. so i thought it was already registered to three. but apparently not. issue is resolved.
Hi all, i've been having this problem with my Sony Ericson xperia Play.
My bills came in as a hefty $$ bomb. I do not have data plan, so all internet activities are charged at GPRS connection rate. I've had my mobile network switched off, so there's no possibility that applications would still connect to data? Or there is? i only use my phone for smsing and dealing calls.
I called my service provider up, and they told me that my phone's internet activity is active and running. have you guys ever encountered such problem? Could anyone please enlighten me?
Thanks in advance to all.
Usually there arent any problems like this for android. And just to
make sure, the box u checked off was in Settings>Wireless & Networks>
Mobile Networks>Data enabled right?
Normally once you get a phone, the data will automatically on. So normally I will boot up without sim at first, then switch off data.
(I've unlimited plan btw)

You could always use an app that will not allow any apps to access the network. ie a firewall like (droid wall for rooted users). That would eliminate your problem. There are many apps out there which need permission to access the network, including the stock email, google maps, the market, and etc.
I'm of the same mind as the previous posters. But if you see data being used ie. the 3G symbol or whatever your data symbol is and it lights up or is present when the check mark on mobile data is off then it's not actually off. In other words if you don't see only the cell singal bars you could be using data. Hope that helps.
Edit: Also you said "SMSing" would that also include pictures or video in your defn of that? If so those are data. At least in the U.S. they are.
There is a program called APNdraoid or sg like that. this program modifies the apn settings and dont allow your phone to connect to mobile internet. btw you can manually change the apn settings from Settings->Wireless&Networks-> Mobile Networks->Access Point Names. all you have to do is to modify the settings (add some text to the end of the apn row)

To avoid data charges (and seems that you don't have a data plan), I would suggest delete all your APN settings under Access Point Name in Mobile network settings.
If the problem still occurs, you can call your operator to disable internet access from your mobile account.

Thanks for the suggestions ! i'd just go ahead and change the apn ! But i still can't find the root to the problem. It's like paying for something i had never used at all ..
Btw, I am curious that if you tried to load a webpage in your browser when mobile network is unticked? If you did, does it load?
Anyone have issues roaming? I'm in Paris and can't connect to a local network at all. Won't even register. WiFi calling seems to work, but I can't get even an emergency call to connect unless on wifi

Did you add Roaming to your account before leaving to France? I would also make sure that:
1. Network mode is GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto
2. If you search for Network Operators from your phone, does it find anything?
3. Ensure that Data Roaming is selected
Also, power off your device completely and wait for 5 min before switching on (NOT AIRPLANE MODE). These tips have worked for me in the past, not with this phone but with other GSM phones. Please let me know any resolution, I will be going to the EU very soon and I'm hoping to know the experience from another TMo user.
Hope it helps!
Hi!
I have Motorola Razr XT910K, and I am from the Philippines. I have been using the phone for almost a week now and it seems like it won't connect to mobile internet. I got the APN settings saved on the phone and the settings were pushed by the provider. I turned on the Mobile Data, also i checked data roaming as well. I already selected and enabled the APN that was pushed by my provider.
Here's what is going on: when I turn off the data, the "H" is seen beside the signal bars icon but there is a red circle with a slash which means data is turned off. But when i turn the mobile data on, the "H" disappears and only the signal bars icon is left, aside of course from the time and other icons on my notif bar.
Can anyone please help me on this?
My phone is not rooted, running official 4.0.4 ICS.
my mobile network state is either just connecting or disconnected.
I tried to use my sim with another phone and it can connect to the internet.
I don't if i just missed one setting on the phone.

I just got the same problem earlier today, and solve at the end, below is my procedure, just for your reference.
Try "Settings" > "More" > "Mobile networks" > "Access Point Names", and delete those APN(s) that your are not using.
You may also want to try to search APN auto set up in the play store.
