I am having a problem connecting to my 3G (HSDPA) with my Vibrant. My phone company is using 850 and 1900 (Bell Mobility). I have been at this problem for days now and am running out of places to look so I thought I would write down a list of what I have tried and see if anyone out there can suggest other things to check/fix. The first problem is that I am not sure when I lost my 3g as I was using WiFi as default in my home while rooting with the SuperOneClick. After rooting I installed the voodoo lagfix with a little bit of trouble so that may be where the problem lies. However, since then this is what I have done....
-Factory reset and wipe cache (didn't fix problem)
-Check APN Settings
APN - pda.bell.ca
Proxy - web.wireless.bell.ca
Port - 80
MMSC - h t t p : / / m m s . b e l l . c a / m m s / w a p e n c (spaced only because I cant post links yet)
MMS Port - 80
MCC 302
MNC 602
APN Type - Internet + mms
All others set to none or blank
-Check Flight Mode (disabled)
-Check Data Network Mode (on long power button press) (Enabled)
-Thought to try other roms, installed Darky's Ressurection 9.2, still no 3G
-Installed seeArms v0.4 with JL2 modem as that was what mine was stock. No 3g
-Entered *#0011* in Dialer to access Service mode
[1] DEBUG SCREEN

Verified that I have both the WCDMA 850 and 1900 freq turned on
[1] DEBUG SCREEN
[1] BASIC INFORMATION
UMTS : HOME(CS+PS) <---Not sure if this is correct?
WCDMA Switches between 850 Band 5 and 1900 Band 2??
-Under Settings --> About Phone i have the following

Signal Strength - -85 dBm 15 asu
Mobile Network Type - HSDPA
Service State - In Service
Roaming - not roaming
Mobile Network State - DISCONNECTED
IMEI - 35328504~.....it matches my product box

I dont know what other pertainent information would be needed but if your willing to help and need other info I will gladly look it up. Thanks in advance!
are you sure that you have a 3G coverage in your are?

I am sure. I live in an urban area and have had no problems with nexus one before the vibrant.
I actually resolved the problem. I went into the bell mobility store and they put in a new sim card and refreshed my data package and everything was fine. No idea why this happened but it's all good now.
Thanks for your interest in helping!
Did you ever have 3g on your vibrant?? If you are not on the tmo network you will not get 3g only edge. Just like you can't use an unlocked iphone on tmo with 3g. Just like any phone really. Except you can use tmo vibrant on ATT with 3g. But can't use the ATT captivate on tmo 3g.

I did have 3g for the first day I had my Vibrant until I started modding it. Like I mentioned though, 3g has been restored after a new SIM card and a refresh to my data package from Bell Mobility.
I will say though, that the 3g service I am getting is by far superior to what I had on my Nexus one with any radio I tried using. I am working in a very remote location in northern Alberta now and still get 3g
Now if only we had a stable and complete version of CM7!
Can anyone post the settings for running Lumia 920 on Tmobile's network

H = HSPA+ = T-mobile's current 4g
g < 2g < 3g < H < LTE
* Cellular Settings --> highest connection speed to 3G (was set to LTE). Without this, SMS and MMS have a variety of oddities such as limiting to 70 characters, not operating reliably, etc.
* Set Internet APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com (all other fields blank)
* Set MMS APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com
MMSC URL --> http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMSC port --> 80
Max MMS size --> 1024
all other fields blank
I already am using the settings you mentioned and I get a 4G icon on top.
But the internet is really slow. Download speed is less than .1 Mbps.
I am not sure whats going on even with a 4G icon.
any suggestions?
Thanks,

I found out the problem.
Internet seems to be down slow in my area due to some tmobile maintenance.
I just drove away from where I live and did a speed test at bandwidthplace.com
I got nearly 30mbps with Lte and almost 10 Mbps with 3G.
Is there a way to get text messaging working with Lte?

You know that T-Mobile USA does not currently have LTE right?
yes, I know that but I get higher speeds if the connection is set to LTE.

Try using fast.t-mobile.com as your APN and use the access point app
ok

Ok, here is my problem now:
after 1308 update, Internet sharing worked great on my Rogers unlocked 920 running T-mob
But, MMS stoped working. At that point i reactivated T-mobile access point , and MMS started working again .... but, i have no internet sharing again ((
It's always taking me to T-mob web site and pay for service, which i already have
Now .....
i did try "Spanish keyboard trick" and after that, tethering (internet sharing) worked.
But, no MMS again. It looks like settings used in "Spanish mode" use different values for Access point settings.
If i could manually add access point with MMS settings and internet settings, that would be great.
Ill try call T-mob and ask for it, but it's small chance, ill get it ;(
Anybody can help in here ?

ok, two things you have to know:
1, you will have to change your speed connection to 3G (sometimes dont work with LTE)
2, Delete all access points, restart your phone.
then, manually set this:
* Set Internet APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com (all other fields blank)
* Set MMS APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com
MMSC URL --> http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

Hi,
I wanted to ask others their experience with Lumia 920 (Rogers version) with LTE Service.
I have LTE service with Telus in the area where I live. I get excellent LTE service with my Samsung Galaxy sIII.
The LTE service with the Lumia 920 does not seem as good, Galaxy always seem to have LTE, Lumia reverts back to 4G much of the time.
I have settings set to LTE
Questions:
Is there a better radio that could be flashed for the Lumia 920, Rogers uses Band 4 (AWS 1700) for their LTE the same as Telus?
Is there a setting in the phone is "tune" the radio to work better with Telus LTE service?
Is this something I need to "suck it up" since it is a unlocked phone?
I have a Rogers phone on TELUS. Indicator states 4G but I'm getting lte speeds going by speed tests.
Sent from my RM-820_nam_canada_200 using Board Express
Enable LTE on Telus
I also have the Rogers 920 on Telus... I've always had the 4G indicator when a data connection was established and a 3G indicator when it was idle. When correctly on LTE, the indicator will always be LTE (with or without an active data connection). Even though the speeds were fairly high, I was pretty sure it wasn't LTE but rather HSPA+.
Anyways, I can report that 4G isn't LTE; I'm now always getting LTE when in LTE-enabled zones (it goes back to 3G/4G when outside of the city or in a very low reception area zone). The only trick I found to getting it to work is the following (some steps may not be required but that's what I do and it always worked) following a hard-reset (soft-resets don't need this, LTE always enables itself for me):
Install the "access point" application
Go into the "access point" application in your settings
Add a new APN in "access point" (the fields I didn't specify is because I left them blank or kept the default value)
- Connection name: TELUS LTE (it can be what ever, that's just what I chose)
- Data type: LTE
[Internet APN]
- Access Point Name: sp.telus.com
[MMS APN]
- MMS Access Point Name: sp.telus.com
- Proxy address: 74.49.0.18
- Proxy port: 80
- MMSC address: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc
Go into "cellular" in your settings
Switch the "Highest connection speed" value to "3G"
Go back into the "access point" application
Activate the newly created "TELUS LTE" APN
Wait a minute or restart the phone (I think waiting a minute worked for me the last time I tried instead of a restart)
Go back into "celluar"
Switch the "Highest connection speed" value to "LTE"
Wait about a minute and LTE should kick in if you're in a LTE zone
Go back into the "access point" application
Activate the default "TELUS" APN that comes from the SIM card (this will re-enable tethering while supporting LTE)
Those steps appear to be the magic recipe that worked for me following two hard-resets... Like I said, it could be any combination of the above steps and not necessarily all them... Can't guaranty it'll also work for you but it's worth a try.
I have tmobile when inserted the simcard in my z2 I've noticed that I'm not getting any internet connection so i went to Setting/wireless and networks/internet setting and downloaded all the files then I went to mobile netword and changed it to 4G Tmobile, starting that day I keep losing connection every time I have to go to mobile network and change it manually although it's set on automatic, most of teh times 4g doesn't work and I have to set it to 3g... it's really annoying
In your dial pad type in *#*#info#*#* (numbers for info)
Go to phone info
Scroll down
Select prefered network mode
Select LTE or an option for local with
Go back to your network settings and see if 4G shows up
If not change your mode back to what it was before and call tmobile because they may have to sort some issues out for you

go to your network settings, when tmobile USA shows up with 4G click it to register, once thats done, go back a menu and click on network mode and change it to LTE/HSPDA/GSM (or what ever bands are used in USA)
you should have data connection but 4G depends on how good Tmobile USA Coverage is
You may need to call TMo and ask them to do whatever they do in the backend to reset the phone to network connection. Another thing is to look at TMo support site for the correct APN settings. In my case, data was perfect but MMS would not work because the phone settings were incorrect. Basically, call TMo. They will even email you the settings.
One last thing. Try airplane mode off then on and see it that helps.

One thing I would do, is to call T-Mobile and register the IMEI so they can provision the unit. The settings on their end may have something which is preventing it to connect to it based on a previous phone's capabilities.
-----------------
I had something similar similar but it was with AT&T. In my case, it would not connect to LTE at all as it would stick on HPSA. This was because I had a S3 (UK version), which was only capable of HSPA+, and I had registered the IMEI with them prior.
I had a lot of problems getting my Z2 to work on T-Mobile as well. I finally used the following settings to get everything to work.
Create 2 APNs, the first should have the Following Settings:
Name: T-Mobile
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy: 216.155.165.050
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/
MMS proxy: 216.155.165.50
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: defaul,supl,admin,dun,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Now create a second APN with the following settings:
Name: T-Mobile GPRS
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
With both of those created, go to your list of APNs and make sure your first one (T-Mobile) is selected.
These settings fixed my problems, hope you get it worked out.

I had a similar issue, is that why my phone doesn't have signal with tmobile cause I have to register the IMEI?

It is likely, make sure the internet/mms settings are downloaded too.
Once the IMEI is registered, they will able to see what phone it is and enable the proper features which the phone is capable of.
I heard it's best to let them know as the IMEI as well because they could flag the unauthorized phones and reject it from being connected the carrier.
Hello,
I have an SM-T865N Galaxy Tab S6. I am running the latest update released for the tablet (T865NKOU3BTF1).
I live in the United States and I'm trying to use the tablet on AT&T.
I'm able to connect to the AT&T network using the APN settings below. However, the download speeds are very slow.
----Name: ATT Broadband
----APN: Broadband
----All settings from Proxy through Multimedia message port is "Not set"
----MMC: 310 (should already be set)
----MNC: 410 (should already be set)
----Authentication type: Not set
----APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri,fota
----APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
I have searched the web and found various APN settings for APN. However, only the "ATT Broadband" APN setting has worked so far.
Has anyone else been able to use the tablet on the AT&T network and get decent download speeds?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Apparently 3G level speeds are all that can be expected on the AT&T network.
I switched to T-Mobile and the speeds were around 50 Mbps on the tablet.
