I have HAM2 and the process of obtaining root, now I get an error that i'm roaming. Now I lost data capabilities. I have WiFi, talk, and text but no data. Roaming is turned off.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Is "data" enabled?
In order to "root" you must unlock the boot loader which resets the phone to factory default. Every time I have reset my HAM2 I have had to call the carrier to resend APN information to the phone.

Yes, it's enabled and the bootloader is unlocked. I will give them a call. I hope it works.
Thanks for everything...

Well I called customer service and they told me that "roaming" needed to be enabled. I thought at first, I didn't want roaming charges but it needed to be enabled i guess. I didn't have to mess with APN. So everything is all good.
Thanks

I was curious to what these things did, so I ran them. Next thing I know my internet has been disabled. I have full service and I make sure Data Connection is indeed enabled. What should I do? I'm actually watching my battery drain since it's trying to connect and failing...
PRL - Priority Roaming List - gives you new towers and some access updates as the provider changes things
Profile - On sprint is the data profile at registers your phone on their data network and let you use it. My guess is its about the same for other providers.
If you have changed some of the settings in the phone you can break it and you will have to reset everything and start over unless you find the change to fix it.
So do I have to do a hard-reset? I obviously have indeed changed a lot of settings but have no idea what to undo...
Should I bother calling Sprint?
Well I ended up doing a hard-reset and still no internet... No idea what to do now...

Have you tried to hit "Update Profile" again? If not try that. It that doesn't work then yes, you need to call sprint and have someone walk you through manually programming your phone. I know you're probably stressing but, trust me, this is no big deal. Easy fix for sure.
Good news, I talked to "Bob" at Sprint's customer service and had me change my Profile from 0 to 1 and everything is back to normal...
I give props to their CS, I could actually understand him!
PLease a little more info...
Where and how did you change your profile, is it a regestry edit or what?
I have MSL but where do i change profile?

Does anyone have cab files for these? I found them on PPCGeeks but the site is down and I am in need of data to download my work emails. I also don't have a stock rom to flash back to in order to get the options back. Thanks
EDIT nevermind found it
Hi,
I hope this is the right place to post. I recently unlocked my Atrix and am now using it in Thailand with True Move (850mhz). The phone works fine for calls but I can't connect to the 3g or Edge/GPRS. The H+ in the top right of the screen is visible. Are there any settings I need to adjust? I plugged in a friends iphone 3gs sim card which was working fine with 3g and Edge/GPRS (on the iphone) but still no luck. Any ideas? I hope I'm missing something obvious here...
did you turn on the data roaming?
Under settings -> data manager -> data delivery I have backround data, data roaming, and data enabled all checked. Is there somewhere else I need to enable data? Its my first Android phone so sorry if the question seems obvious.
FWIW the 3g/4g worked on my AT&T sim card in the US.

You have your Data Connection enabled, right? Another think you could try is switching to EDGE to see if it works with that.
Connection on, tried 2g also...
Maybe carrier has control over tether ability?

Does your carrier allow tethering? Have you tried another SIM?
my girlfriend has a 710 and tethering works on her device, took her sim and got the same error...(i'm a qa engineer and already thought of these options so i guess is a hardware problem)

You can also try a hardreset. There were some changes in the firmwares that are only active after a hard reset.
i find it really stupid that i have to hard reset it...that;s not why i bought the phone..
what are these changes?

Well, I got some new options that allow me to configure call forwarding and the SMS charset... I doubt that it is a hardware problem. Your data connection works properly on the phone?
Yup, always has been working fine...
Is the phone sim unlocked & are you using it on a different service provider? Can you send MMS messages? I suspect WP is looking at some hard coded APN settings when activating internet sharing, & not the one entered under the cellular apn option.
Yes i can MMS messages, but i do have another problem with it that makes me think the celullar modem is faulty....i use it on 2g and sometimes when i receive a call the sound is all distorted when i answer for about 5-6 seconds and then i ca hear the person on the other end...this happens form the day i started using it...
I've discovered that unless I have Edge on my phone I can't make any calls or get texts. Even if my phone shows full bars. Does anyone else have this problem? I know that I can use WiFi calling, but that doesn't help me when I'm away from home.

Automatic is the only thing that gave a chance of getting a call out.
So assuming this is a g900T, which carrier are you on?
If you're on any cellphone carriers other than tmobile you need to check and most likely create a new APN (access point name) specific to that carrier.

No I have T-mobile and my lock screen doesn't show any other carrier.
Bad news, the LTE functionality test hack used to edit apns on S9 and older phones doesn't work anymore. But good news is, if you know your MSL (all 0's for unlocked), you can create new APNs. Just dial ##3282#, put in your MSL, click APN Settings, and create a new APN with the same settings as APN2 LTE ... internet, but add dun at end of APN type.
You cannot modify the APN once you save it, but if you make a mistake, go to general management, reset, reset network settings to remove the APN you added and fix any problems.
Enjoy
EDIT: Updating profile deletes the APN so you should get used to creating new APNs frequently.

Does this back count toward data usage?

I do not believe so but I have not been able to verify yet. I can verify that it does switch APN because mobile data cuts off for a min when you switch to the one you made, and a similar procedure on the S9 did not count on my tethering data. I get 50gb and it didn't count at all, just my normal data. I will test with this new one though.

Just call andtell them you want it if they ask for what tell them you're a developer
Add button is greyed out... I am not unlocked, I used 6, 0's but it let me hit Ok
Hope to find better solutions.
Thanks this worked for me hopefully it sticks without profile getting updated.
How did you edit this my phone will not allow me to edit this its grayed out. I try to add a d it dose nothing
works. :good:
how to get "enhanced LTE" working? so LTE stay connected while on voice call?
It seems that after the new update, I can not change it to my new added apn. Anyone could help?
I just called Sprint and they have me all 0's as my MSL. So means I'm unlocked and I didn't even know. Unless they lied. I'm about to find out when I try this hack.
Update: boo add option is grayed out. I didn't take this newest update and I thought that was the update that prevented adding APN.
If I reset will it reset to the original software version I had when I initially bought phone or the last update?

It will reset to your current update. You could flash older though, as long as the bootloader's haven't changed, which I believe hasn't but could be wrong.

Thanks. I'm going to look for the version I had when I bought my phone 3/12/19.
I think that Hotpot is included with my Sprint plan. Yip I think it's 50gb hotspot.
Disregard.
Following along... MSL 0's, cant "add" anything... I rarely use the hotspot, but at times I *need* it.
Any idea if anyone has broken this yet? I’m in the same boat where even with my MSL the edit functions are greed out.
is this still working?
esqueue said:
I'm on the most recent update, Got it only a few days ago. I purchased the phone outright from Bestbuy and my MSL seems to be all zeros. I was able to successfully enable wifi hotspot. This was one of the main reason I rooted my phones in the past. I know that this will be patched out eventually but it's awesome at the moment though.

would love to know if sprint folks still have the workaround for the wifi hotspot. I'm sitting on an unlocked S10 that I haven't shoved my SIM card in yet because I absolutely need the hotspot sometimes...
