After e-mailing AT&T and finding out that, "After reviewing the coverage for your area it shows that you do have the best of our 3G coverage", I can't seem to pick up anything but E..
So... do I have a problem with my settings or are they bs'ing me..?
Thanks

If it is an AT&T branded phone and you have an AT&T SIM card, why would you think that your settings are messed up? Have you rooted your phone and installed a custom ROM? Even if you did, the custom ROMs that are available for the Aria should have the correct AT&T settings.

OK, first I would do a 'nandroid' backup to save your current configuration. Then I would do a Wipe Data/Factory Reset and then see if you can then pick up a 3G signal. Depending on which custom ROM you have loaded, it will either show up as 3G or H (if you are running CM7). If you still can't get a signal, I would take it to AT&T and see if they can figure it out.

Dial *#*#4636#*#* on the phone. A menu will come up. Select Phone Information. Scroll down a little bit and there is a dropbox that says "Set preferred network type:"
This setting should be set to "WCDMA preferred". If it is not set to that, change it to that then hit back to get out of the menu, and see if the 3G works after that. It might help to restart the phone after doing this.
If that doesn't do it, try finding someone else you know with an AT&T SIM card, and try putting it into your phone to see if you can get 3G. If it's a very old SIM card, consider asking for a new one.
Also, double check underneath the battery. Does it say A6366 or A6380?

It was already set to "WCDMA preferred" I changed it and changed it back and I'm still only able to receive E and under the battery is says, A6366
The application called Network by Phillip m. Allows you to set up for gsm only and so on. Works good.

Do you know someone else who has a 3G capable AT&T phone that can see if he can get a 3G connection at your location?
Also, have you ever gotten a 3G connection anywhere with your Aria?

Hmm, I'd have to look most of my friends are on Verizon and the ones on AT&T don't have data plans l:
Most likely I'm just going to have to go in to AT&T and no I have never gotten a 3G connection.

Sounds like a defect in the phone to me. If I were you, I'd probably re-install the factory default RUU. (Make sure you use the 2.1 one, NOT the 2.2 one. As long as you use the 2.1 one, you will still be able to root the phone again.) If you want to retain your current settings you can take a nandroid backup. After rerooting the phone you can restore it.
If 3G still doesn't work, get it exchanged. Was this a recently purchased phone?

Ok before all that, I just restored the nandroid ,from before when I was told to backup then wipe to see if I'd pick up the 3G, and after it boots up it just starts bringing up force closes of apps continuously... I can't do anything but force close the stuff that pops up.. (it seems to be all the apps that I had pre wipe that are causing the problems... I can't use my preferred launcher or even the keyboard [smart keyboard pro] that I had set, gmail doesnt seem to be working either)
Also this phone is a couple months old, I got it for free because I stayed with AT&T after they acquired the local phone company. It's not a huge problem that I can't get 3G as I can access wifi most of the time, but me and a friend were looking at T-Mobile and saw a joint plan we liked but I knew I wouldn't be able to receive 3G with T-Mobile, I then remembered I had never even gotten 3G with AT&T
I can't seem to do data on the phone and It seem's to not even get 2g working.
I am on the pay as you go plan 500mb to start to see if it worked and so far it has not. I have never had a real smartphone before so any help would be good.

yes and it does not work.
Did you install custom rom ?
If Yes - that particular rom has wrong APN settings.(search forum for default ATT APN settings enter manually )
If NO - no idea whats your problem.

I just got the phone to day and it runs very well, so no custom rom. It's a 3G sim as well. I took it out of my KRZR and put it in the s2. It may not have the right setting's. I am starting to think the phone itself may have a dead 2/3/4g chip. (I don't know alot about cell's ok.)
You tried the Network operator and waited until Select automatically was available?
Yes and that did not work.
EDIT: HELP would be good.
AT&T data settings have been debated at length in this thread, with several members posting their AT&T APN settings for others to try:

I just ran the speedtest app and 3g poped up, and then died in 30 sec. I am just ?????????????????.
I tryed puting on phone and it did not work. I may try calling AT&t to see if anything can be done. I know it's a risk, but I want data on the phone.)
Edit: I can only seem to get 3g runing the speedtest app and if I trun wifi off, then it won't work. I don't know of anything more I can try, so I will try to get my $ back from them.
The phone is faster than my p4 PC that I had 3 years ago.
I don't know what unlimted data plan would work.
I don't get why the 3g/h+ will come up for 3-5 sec and then just wifi and then I can't use 2/3g/h+ to do anything. I am unsure what the isuse is with my data plan and I may have to do a hotspot from sprint or something.(I would not want to do it this way if I can.)

Hi all,
First time poster, long time follower!!
I'm hoping someone can help me here because i have a real headache with my galaxy s2.
When i got it at Christmas everything was perfect. But two weeks later i suddenly lost my 3g. Phone works fine on 2g (except for the slow speed), but i contacted my carrier 3Ireland and they said everything is fine on their end. My APN is perfect, i've tried toggling airplane mode, entering codes, data package checks. You name it and i've tried it.
When i force my phone to select 3g it looses all signal and i have to restart my phone and quickly go back into settings to choose 2g or i will loose signal again.
This is the following on my phone.
Android version 2.3.5
Baseband version I9100XXKI4
Kernel Version [email protected] #2
Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKI8
I've being reading about modem/radios lately, is that just the baseband? Could that be my problem. I'm a noob at this kinda thing.I just want my 3g to come back.
All help is greatly appreciated. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks.

It would be interesting to know your SGS2 is white version as well as mine.
I have to say that I have another SGS2 but old black version which is perfectly functional on the same 3 network. After playing a very long times with both phones settings, I have a feeling that the core of the problem lies in the "APN type" setting. Changing it's content affects how it connects to network. I have no deep understanding of what is happening behind the scene while changing this option, but there is a possibility that the portion of file system responsible for it somehow been damaged.
It would be great if the developers could tell us if this part of the Android file system is changed while flashing different firmware/radio, or it is persistent?

Dial *#*#4636#*#*, go to phone information and see the settings for the radio. It should be at the bottom. Google the settings for the GSM, WCDMA. Mine is currently 'GSM auto PRL'. 'WCDMA Preferred'is also a better option for 3G network.

Thank you. I fiddled with GSM, WCDMA settings as you said, but no luck.
What is even more interesting is if the network mode is set to "WCDMA only", then I'm not even able to register on 3 network. After an attempt to manually connect to 3 via "Network Operators" menu, it says "Unable to connect. Try later".
Also after connecting via WCDMA, and then reverting back to GSM, the GSM dies as well. The only solution is to restart the phone.
If it is a software bug, then I do not understand why this problem did not go away after flashing different Rom with radio.

Same problem for me in Spain...
WTF happens with this Galaxy S2.First USB voltage problem and now no 3G/HSPA connection.
Any solution, plz??
Samsung: never again
guys....carriers can't sell a device that is advertised as a 3g capable phone. Call them and spit "misleading advertising" mixing "give me a phone that I can actually use" words. You could also add "Release me from my contract, I'm moving to other 3g WORKING carrier".
They'll just freak out.

T-Mobile USA?
If yes, you're probably in a market that they have not yet re-farmed the 1900mhz frequency for HSPA+ yet. The i9100 doesn't get 1700mhz, and the majority of T-Mobile USA's network uses the AWS band, which requires both 1700 and 2100mhz to work for 3g/"4g".
So i flashed 10.1 over my cm 10 with no trouble and have been playing around with it for a few days. I got sick of sprints slow ass speed and decided to try and change it. I go to my mobile settings and put regular CDMA./EvDo with out lte and that helped a little. Then i went to CDMA subscription and changed it from RUIM/SIM to NV and now i cant seem to change it back. I can physically change it back but the settings wont go through. WHenever im on RUIM/SIM i wont connect to 3g and texts and stuff wont go through. but on NV they do.
Did i **** up badly? is there any way to change it back and what are the negatives if i cant?
i have already tried flashing the rom again or restoring a backup and both had RUIM/SIM on standard but i had no signal with them on, only when i changed to NV could i get texts and stuff.
1) Is your phone number listed properly (settings >> phone >> status) ?
2) Is your IMEI different?
If either is wrong, you need to toggle between RUIM/SIM and NV then toggle airplane mode and then reboot
Also, Correct me if I am wrong but...
If you are on Sprint, I believe you should be using NV (Non-volatile) and not RUIM (Removable identity module) /SIM. The reason being that we have a CDMA network and no SIM card. NV uses the handsets ESN and sends it to the network, and saves the PRL to the handset whereas the RUIM/SIM uses the card's ESN and sends that to the network and saves the PRL to the card.
oh wow your right. thanks man. i just thought it was supposed to be the other way because thats the way it was when i restored it and i thought i messed up.
it seems that i have the same problem. i was on cm10.1 was messing with some settings in cdma, everything seemed fine but suddenly i wasnt able to connect to the mobile network. it says in the network tab under about that i am out of service, mobile network type is unknown, signal strength is 0 and the operator name is unknown. I had this happen before on the og evo a few years ago and it was the baseband that had changed. I noticed that a new base had dropped so i figured it was just that. flashed new firmware and i am at 1.12.11.1210 now and i still cannot connect to any network. msl reads fine. i cannot flash back to cm10.1 because im on the latest firmware/twrp. Any help would be greatly appreciated. hboot 1.9 pri is 2.97_003 prl says it is at version 1. profile and prl say they update fine. phone number states that it is unknown.
Bump. I failed to mention that I am s-off. Still no service. I have switched between damn near every single Rom that is compatible with 3.16 to bo avail. Is there any other Rom that lets you change the cdma subscription?
Thanks
Update: it also seems like the phone itself is bent slightly by the kick stand. Not much, but it is. Coincidence?
Took the phone into best buy and i am getting a replacement. Thanks for the help...

Did this end up fixing the problem?
So I have a Note 2 and a HTC one, for about three weeks I used my HTC one and then i switched back to my note 2. Yesterday I wanted to use my HTC one but every time I insert the sim card I get a no service message. what can I do to fix this?
I did not root the phone BTW.
Have you found a resolution? I just ran into the same problem. Phone was working great, then one Sunday afternoon it just stopped getting a signal. It's not the SIM as it works fine in my old SGSII (had to make SIM adapter). I am rooted and unlocked and running non stock recovery but still on stock kernel/radio. Haven't contacted HTC yet for obvious reasons.
I've had this happen a lot with my phone on tmobile. I live in a concrete basement apartment where there's no reception and if the phone goes more than 15 hours without any signal I almost always(80%ish) have to call tmobile and have them deactivate/reactivate the sim from their end.
A fix you can try that they swear "usually works" is go to settings/mobile data/network operators/search automatically
If that doesn't work then try settings/mobile data/access point names/menu/reset to default
Apparently these settings can be reset pretty easily when the phone doesn't connect to a network for a bit, but all this might just be a tmobile thing
I have a bit different problem - I bought HTC One from T-mobile and unlocked it. I tooked it with me to Europe and device does work with american sim (ATT and TMO) but it wont recognize any of my national carriers. Insterting simcards(perfectly working) does not give me reception or anything. Sim cards are the same thing in EU and US I think - also those are GSM phones. I have friends having same problems with their S4 from AT&T in Europe. Does anybody know something to help make this device work?
OP - this happened to my Wife's phone for no apparent reason one day. I simply removed & reinserted the SIM and rebooted a couple of times, hasn't had a problem since.

I changed my SIM for a new one. Seems like a new SIM cards are a bit different from the old ones because after I did that I had no problems

Same problem here. I am on paranoid android though so maybe that has something to do with it. When I go into the settings to connect to the t mobile network, it says "your sim card is not authorized" or something like that. Maybe it's cuz I haven't paid my bill for 2 months? Lol but I don't think that's reason for them to block my sim :/

I had the same problem and I had to restart my phone sometimes several times a day, sometimes I had to remove the sim card enclosure and reinsert it in order for my phone to get a signal. So I contacted HTC and they told me that I probably had a defective sim card enclosure so they sent me a new one. After I installed the new sim card enclosure with the same sim card I had before the problem went away. I've been without any problems for the past four months or so since I got the replacement sim enclosure

Did anybody found a solution?? I already tried everything... but seems like the phone is not blacklisted.. in case it is, something I can do? besides change my IMEI.

I wonder if anyone can help please. My M7 can't connect to the network. The radio isn't turned off, I checked using the code given by Shane_pcs, so I know it is a hardware problem. I suspect the radio chip has worked loose somehow and isn't making contact like it should. Any tips on how to resolve this please? I have seen a tear down of the M7, but don't know if anyone on here has attempted to secure the radio chip before...not even sure what the chip itself looks like. Any ideas please? Thank you.

If you see turn on radio click that to turn on the radio. Is some cases the radio gets turned off and a reboot doesnt fix. This is the only way I know to recover it.

I've had this happen a lot with my phone on tmobile. I live in a concrete basement apartment where there's no reception and if the phone goes more than 15 hours without any signal I almost always(80%ish) have to call tmobile and have them deactivate/reactivate the sim from their end.
A fix you can try that they swear "usually works" is go to settings/mobile data/network operators/search automatically
If that doesn't work then try settings/mobile data/access point names/menu/reset to default
Apparently these settings can be reset pretty easily when the phone doesn't connect to a network for a bit, but all this might just be a tmobile thing
