Hi I recently purchased this phone and I am trying to get the mobile data working. I have ptel as my provider and I am able to call and text but just no data. I haven't unlock phone from tmobile and it seems like I can't add a new APN. Do I have to unlock it and rooted in order to get the data work? Thanks a bunch

Hi all,
My friend attempted to unlock her X10i (not sure how), but basically although the phone boots past the SE logo, it sits on a blank screen with a cross through the network icon when any SIM is inserted.
I have flashed back (various ROMS) with SEflasher and now have the full menu, but it still wont recognise a SIM card. Is there a way to rectify this?
I get the message no SIM recognised when trying to use SETool, so I suspect its screwed something up.
Any Ideas to recover connectivity?
Thanks in advance.

Can you still make any calls? Did you try to? In your network setting can you select your carrier?
Try to go in your APN setting and set them manually. Google your carrier APN setting and input all of them. I am in Rogers and i got around 5 of them for calling, internet, SMS, MMS, etc.
When done put your phone in Plane mode, wait a bit and put on 3G or wtv you use. See if it works. If not set them up and restart the phone.
You can also use this program: APN Backup&Restore. If you can roll back to a rom where it works or if a friend has Droid phone and is on the same network, install the app there, run it and backup the APN settings.
Then install that same app on your phone via FlashTool and put the backed-up file on your phone (SD Card) and use that app to restore the APN settings.
See if that works. I had a problem where i didnt have internet connection but could still make calls, use that manual setup/app and it worked for me.
Let me know if it works.

Hi, I had [ROM][I605VRUFND7][4.4.2]OFFICIAL STOCK ROOTED ODEX/DEODEX[6/13/2014] on my phone for a while and i went out of the country and used [MOD][ROOT] VZW GN2 GSM Unlock - Add APN Data - Remove Non-Verizon SIM Message so i could use that countries sim card which worked.
When i got back i am not able to get any internet with my vzw sim card, but i do get calling reception.
So i flashed back to my old 4.3 rom and i have internet with no problems.
I have tried just about every 4.4 rom i could find and none of them will let me use internet.
So now i dunno what to do, I want to go back to 4.4. does anyone have a clue what i can do to make the internet work again?
Hey guys, recently I've got an Alpha SM-G850A which is for AT&T. I live in Iran and the phone has been unlocked to work here, I was trying to get the Android Lollipop 5.0.2 for my phone. so first I tried to get the update from AT&T software update by phone, but it says that there seems to be no updates available for me, nevertheless on the net the guys claim that they've got the update, is it due to my location in Iran and my internet IP? (I used VPN too but again, no updates). I tried to get the firmware from Sammobile.com too, but there were no firmwares detected for SM-G850A. Can someone help please?:good::good:

Even tho the phone is working on other networks you will still need an at&t sim card to update it. There is no way around this as far as i know.
Type below code in dialer and select Device information. Now, if you scroll down you will have the option to change network type.
Code:
*#*#4636#*#*
So I followed the steps that I found on here to unlock the device. However once I put my MetroPCS sim card in it still says "Emergency Calls Only" as well as not being able to use Mobile Data or text messaging at all.
Can someone please help me with this? I have been trying all day to get this phone to work with my Metro sim but it simply will not.
Anyone??
