3G data access no working on a n7100 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought two phones one a N7100 Chinese clone with 4.1.9 and another Phone running 2.3.3. Insert Sim card in both and APN info. Is set by the network but neither will allow any data access.
Check settings with provider (Smart) they say the settings are correct but still no data access (wifi access works fine)
Here is the weird thing if I put the n7100 in hotspot mode other devices can access 3G data(internet) when connected to it. How can that be ? Isn't Hotspot mode using the same apn settings as when accessing the net directly?
Can someone explain what's going on behind the scene with both. Oust trying to figure out why data access one way but not the other on the same device.

[Q] rooted+unlocked vibrant wont connect to data

I Just rooted my phone using Super One Click rooter and unlocked it using SGS Unlock Pro app from the market. I'm trying to unlock it on Roger's network (i think its the same as AT&T)
Thing is i cannot connect to the internet/data on the phone, it says to check connection settings but i dont know what i need to change. Phone calls and texting works just not data.
Any help would be great, i am pretty new at this stuff and have spent the past 3 days trying to figure this all out
You need to change the proxy setting to those of your network service provide. Just call the customer care and ask them for the detailed info about that, they'll probably send you a sms carrying the settings for you to install based on your device.
If that doesn't work (I had that issue) just manually enter the settings after you ask the agent about them or better yet check them out on the internet. Usually service providers post them on their official sites under GPRS, EDGE or 3G.
Weird i just changed my APN to internet.com and it works

settings > wireless and network > mobile network > access point names > t-mobile
apn type: internet and mms
under access point names its blank. I can add a new apn but im not sure what all to add as far as proxy, port, user name, pass, server, ect...
edit: I got it to work thank you.
Also lost Data after flashing Wifi Calling app ...can't change settings in Mobile networks
think I've lost baseband...(whatever that means...basically phone won't recognize a sim card is loaded) is there a way to fix this without Oding ?
Does the phone say there's no SIM card inserted? If so, run to any T-mobile store and ask for a new SIM.
Also, I was having data issues two days ago. I keep a copy of the KB5 modem that's flashable in Recovery. Just re-flash and all was good.
T-mobile APN address:
epc.tmobile.com
Wish I could attach the KB5 file for ya, but I can't. Just search for it.

[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] will your access point names change when you flash a different firmware

I just bought a unlocked galaxy note and I had to to get my access point names right so I could use my data form AT&T. I'm ready to rooted my phone and flash a ics firmware (rom) on my samsung galaxy note N-7000. when I flash, will my access point names be ok. I've already went ahead and copy on paper the way they are now so I wont lose them. Any info you have would be
great, thanks.
P.S. Your access point names are how you get your data from your cell phone provider such as at&t, sprint, boost mobile, etc etc. It has nothing to do with your wi-fi.
If you mean by router name then no

Not sure what youre asking for but here we go...
Sharing your phones dataconnection via Wifi eg Wireless hotspot on your phone will have to be set up again by you.
If you mean the wireless networks (Wifi) you have connected to previously and saved credentials for on your old phone they are sometimes saved in your google account so might be synced to you new phone from the cloud, this has been hit or miss for me.
If you mean your telcos APN stuff cant you just have them send it to your from their website or so?

Data Roaming not working on Android

Hi guys, I'm having this bizarre problem that I hope you could help me with.
I currently have an iPhone 5S, SGS4 and HTC One and share a single sim card between all three phones.
In my home country my SIM card is able to access data on all 3 phones with no problem.
However, when I go abroad and use data roaming, only the iPhone is able connect, both android phones are unable to connect at all.
I checked the APN settings and all seem to be correct.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Have you enabled data roaming in settings..!??
If you are using a custom rom you can find it in settings - - > more - - >mobile networks... Tick the data roaming option... I've never tried data roaming as I don't travel much... But that might help you..! [emoji106]

Yup it's ticked for sure. On the HTC it says that APN settings are incorrect, on the Samsung the phone just refuses to connect. If I move the SIM to the iPhone, data roaming works flawlessly!
When I'm back home, I have zero problems with either phone, which leads me think this is either an Android problem, or a SIM card problem.

Then I guess it has something to do with APN's... Maybe it requires different APN's for roaming... And somehow iPhone has them by default and android doesn't.... Contact your service provider and get the apns..!! That's my best bet.... Good luck
