[Q] Trouble with internet connection, EDGE only - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having an issue with my internet connection. I have a Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) running Slimbean custom rom (Android 4.3). It's an AT&T phone which I unlocked. I am in Egypt right now on the Etisalat network.
I am only getting EDGE connectivity right now. I tried talking to technical support but all my settings seem to be in order. I checked all my settings multiple times (APN, Mobile data, etc) and everything should be ok. My sister has the same phone with the same software and phone line and she is getting 3g speeds. I tried switching our SIM cards to see if the problem is with my SIM card. Her phone was still showing 3g speeds and mine was only getting EDGE.
Does anyone have experience with this or advice for solutions? Any help would be greatly appreciated

[Q] Connecting to data in the UK?

I recently moved from the U.S. to London with an unlocked Vibrant. Stuck a new SIM card in there and while calls, texts, and Wi-Fi come through fine, I'm unable to connect to any data network in the area.
I called Tesco Mobile customer service (and did some Googling) and discovered that London is in the midst of a data network outage and that the techs are looking into it, but I can't help wondering if my handset has anything to do with the failure to connect. Does 3G here perhaps work on a different antenna frequency that the Vibrant can't pick up, or something? I know that really shouldn't be the case, since SGSs everywhere have all the same innards, but still...
For what it's worth, I'm running with root, stock 2.1, RyanZA's lagfix and the JI2 GPS fix (which I've also yet to see working for me, incidentally... any ideas?).
Thanks much!

[Q] 2.3.3 fido 2G radio trouble

Hello, I have a strange issue with connecting to the fido network on the latest android.. I live in a valley and the signal wasn't the greatest although it used to always work perfectly .. I could be in my basement etc without any troubles . Now it keeps connecting and disconnecting on me with any subtle movement. (edge /2g), sometimes it doesn't even find the network or sometimes it says that my sim cannot be registered on the network. As an example I have 3 bars but my phone state says emergency calls only..
Although if I go into town and connect to 3G it works perfectly with no disconnections at all... I've tried cleaning the connectors, the sim itself, even swapped the radio itself.. tried different roms even.. tried reflashing the baseband..
There are several 3G tweaks although never came across any 2G ones..
Might anyone have any ideas what I could do? Could it just be that because there has been no official release of 2. 3. 3 for fido or Rogers? I'm truly stumped...
Any help would be truly appreciated.
Thank you..

Viaero Cellular 4g not working

Ive been doing research the last few days and havent been able to find much info. Im hoping I'll get some help here. Currently I have a tmobile galaxy note 3 sm-n900t. Im switching to viaero wireless who recently activated there 4g network. I have been unable to get my device to connect to there h+ even after using tech support. The phone is rooted and sim unlocked with stock android 4.4 running. I have tried several apn settings but nothing is working. Does anyone have any suggestions to make it work? With the network mode on auto I can access edge but cant get h+ (thats what tech support said I should see). Im wondering if I need to get into service mode and make some changes. Ive tried researching how to get into service mode to modify settings without any luck. Thanks

4G connection problems. Help!

Good afternoon,
I have a galaxy s6 925i,
I'm having problems on the network,
Performing some tests and realized that the problem is with the cell phone.
Before my phone took the 4G network normally, after I switched to the NN4 ROM I realized that my 4G signal did not work anymore. I thought it was cell phone coverage issues.
I changed operator and continued with the same problem.
I changed the ROM, did the wipes and nothing.
I put the original ROM, I installed the MODEM file and CSC and it did not work.
My wife owns a Galaxy S7 and I use my chip normally in 4G.
At the moment I am with the ZTO ROM my signal is very intermittent and I do not know what to do.
If anyone can help me.
I thank you all.

GT-I9195 mini will not connect to att

Hello people. I am hoping for some help. Have s4 mini I9195. Unlocked. Currently I am connected to T-Mobile network. However can only get 2g in my area. So bought, activated, registered, and paid for att account. Now have both T-Mobile and att. However, when plugging in the att aim it WILL NOT connect to att. I get 4 Signal bars on phone but no connection. Have correct apn. Spent two hours with att it's not on their end. Sim card works fine in different phones and other att sims WILL NOT work in my phone. So we know it's NOT a Sim issue. And remember T-Mobile network is connected and working. Only att is the problem and will not connect. Any ideas?? Please help??
I'm on the verge of flashing custom recovery, rom, gapps, to maybe fix this but want to make sure I am not missing something more simple first.
I've done all the basic stuff from resetting phone, apns, closest tower, etc.. Just see seems like phone will not accept att now. It did for first night for about 15 mins got texts and Signal, but nothing since. I am stumped.
Thank you for any help
