Hello friends .
I'm sorry I am writing because I english translation program .
I live in Turkey. S6edgeplus - 928v phone models came from abroad. but the phone does not open 4G - LTE in turkey. *#*#4636#*#* it says LTE ONLY do I do when the connection was severed, and the line was disconnected . I could not find a solution in turkey please help me . Thank you very much in advance
Go into setting then mobile network and set network mode to umts GSM lte. If you're trying to get 4g while on a call, I can't figure that out. It doesn't work for me neither when I use an att sim card in a Verizon phone. I can't get Internet while on a phone call.

Thank you for your interest . but according to my research yesterday 3-7-20 LTE bands in Europe . I do not have my phone with this band . I do wonder how do I install or installing the ? I use my phone that is not loaded
Same problem on tmobile on 5.0 I wonder if its a marshmallow problem too. IT only worked when i first switched from verizon to tmobile and had advanced calling enabled through verizon. Somehow it tricked tmobile or the phone into working with data and call? Since i did a factory reset though now with tmobile sim no luck Im waiting to update soon myself almost done downloading the update

Hi guys, noob here, just got my first android phone (been with blackberry till now).
I got a chinese X12 dual sim phone because i really needed only 1 phone (had to carry around 2 of them).
Phone works great, only problem is with the mobile networks. It can connect to GSM networks but it won't connect to a 3G network. The phone has 3G capabilities, 3G is enabled for the required sim, it finds the 3G network but it will not connect to it.
Sim works fine, had it in a Samsung i900 on 3G (WCDMA) - i live in Europe.
The thing that surprises me most is that the phone came with android 4.0 instead of the 2.3.6 it was advertised, could this be the problem?
Data Enabled ?! have access points ?!

yes, data is enabled on it, as for the access points it has them too (althought i am only trying to connect to the voice network, not the data network)
Tried one more thing which is wierd: the phone works ok with another 3G sim from another provider, but with the other sim it doesn't connect (but it finds the actual network). And the sim that won't connect works on my old phone (the samsung i900)
The first sim that works on 3G on my new phone is from Vodafone (and they have both GSM and WCDMA in my country), while the other sim that doesn't work is from a provider that only has 3G (for both voice and data).
Quick update:
i found out i also get an "error" : invalid IMEI for both sims - it was this way when i first got the phone...
really strange thing with this phone, in settings > about > it says android version 4.0 but when it starts it has the honeycomb logo...
would appreciate any help, if it's from the missing imei's that would be good (or bad, depending on how hard is that to fix).
You can call ##778# to get into those settings. But be careful, those can really screw up your phone if your not careful.
The only reason i can think of, is if your phone only supports certain UMTS bands, while your operator is using different ones. Check out this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands.
For example, my previous phone HTS Nexus One came in two versions - one for ATT(UMTS 850/1900/2100) and another for T-Mobile(UMTS AWS/900/2100). Both were GSM, both had 3G, but 3G would not work on another operator.

phone has only WCDMA 3G network - i tried it on different carriers (on 3G and not GSM) and it works fine, connects to 3G, it just won't connect to this specific network (although it finds the network there, so i guess it has the hardware to connect to it).
could this be from the lack of the IMEI ?
FIXED !!!!
Got it fixed, the problem was with the missing IMEI codes, put them back in, works like a charm.
I used the tutorial here:

Thanks for all the replies you guys.
I'm wondering if I'm the first guy on earth experiencing this problem.
I got an AT&T unlocked HTC One (M7) in the US and brought it with me to Brazil. I introduced the SIM card in it and it worked perfectly for phone calls. However, I can't get the internet access through the network. Brazil only works with 3G at the moment.
I called HTC and they told me to dial *#*#4636#*#* and change the settings for the network under "set preferred network". They told me there would be no guarantee this would work, but I should try.
I tried all the options from WCDMA, CDMA, GSM Only and so on and still could not get the mobile data access.
Right now, internet works only with Wi-Fi. So, he said that I could try finding help on XDA Developers.
So, is there anyone who knows what I should do next?
I wonder if rooting would resolve it, but it seems pretty much a device problem.

Make sure you have a 4G sim and make sure you are in a 4G area
But also, are youtalking about hspa+ or LTE?

Reply [Q] Using 3G network instead of 4G on HTC One
I'm not in a 4G area. Only 3G.
That's why I need to change the settings. I tried also setting the APN settings and nothing so far...

take the same sim card in some local 3g andorid phone in brazil and try again .to make sure your sim card support 3g network , and you say you can not access network by your phone. i doubt if you have a data plan .maybe you should take a phone call to your carrier to check the data plan of your sim card
Thanks for the tips. I solved my problem by calling the provider. It was ANP setting issue. I wasn't getting it right the way it was supposed to.
Thanks again!

4G is hspa+ ... it is a faster form of 3g but still it's 3g
4G and 4GLTE are not the same thing
I recently bought the cell phone in US and am visiting India for a couple of months. When I tried using the GSM sims of both vodafone and airtel in in India I wasnt able to make any calls or rceiev any sms, despite of this being a WORLD PHONE.
I even rooted my device and by installing the APN MAnager I was able to install the Vodafone settings and to my surprise
Was able to get its 3g/Data services working.
However the Voice or the sms is still nit working.
The signalbar is showing just fine and so's the data connection symbol. However with the gsm sim in I keep gettin this NON VERIZON SIM ERROR icon on the top left.
Under the settings>MOBILE NETWORKS ive tried changIng them to both GLOBAL and GSM but still no luck yet.
Can anyone help me out with a network/sim unlock method, similar ti the ones avaialable on the tmibile and other phones.
Pretty sure the voice still uses CDMA. I believe that Verizon still only uses the LTE/GSM for data.

If thats true, then it wouldn't truly be a global phone now would it? GSM will work for voice, but you still need verizon's permission. It should work with a verizon sim, but you will pay through the nose. Now I thought the SIM was unlocked but I could be wrong. Also, even if it is unlocked, it still needs to be compatible with the network frequencies. I don't know what frequencies the VZW S4 has but you can google it.
This being a Dual Band mobile These are the bands that it supports..
CDMA 850
CDMA 1900
GSM 850
GSM 900
GSM 1800
GSM 1900
LTE 750
LTE 1700
WCDMA 850
WCDMA 1900
WCDMA 2100
Also on googling I came across some posts which said the people have managed to use there gsm sims in europe n korea and were able to get the voice n sms. For data they too had to play with th APN..
So what I am tryin to make out from this is we don have a solution to get the voice n sms working on gsm network
Pic showing the error message that I get when I try to make a call.
The second oic shows how my Network signals and data signals are showing just fine but still am not able to make any calls or sms.

I used my phone and put in a Straight Talk (AT&T) SIM and it works with data and voice after manually putting in the APN. If Verizon phone works on AT&T network, it should work with any network out there provided that the bands are supported by the phone.
I was under the same impression, as it worked for me too when I used the tmobile(gsm) sim with it. I was able to make calls only and data was restricted.
Where as with Vodafone IND its the other way round. Am not able to make/recieve calls or sms but data 3g is working just fine.
Confused what could the problem possibly be.

If rooted, you can use Titanium backup, and freeze 'Setup wizard'.
What good would it do if I freeze the setup..how do you suggest I proceed further after freezing..?

I recall needing to call verizon and get an unlock code for my old droid 2 global so that I could use non-verizon global sim cards in it. I believe you just needed to be a customer in good standing for at least 10 months, and could only do it once a year per line, or something.
Edit: A quick search showed a post claming it is already SIM unlocked, so never mind!
Since only my Data is working on my VZW GS4, that too after rooting and installing titanium and apn Manager.
Just wanted to confirm if I am thinking in the right direction, Is it possible that I may flash the Stock Rom for I9500(international Version) in my vzw GS4, and it would work with any international carrier around the world, cos currently am only able to use the Data/3g and Neither Voice nor SMS is working out here for me for GSM carriers like Vodafone and Airtel.
Id really appreciate if anyone can help me lookup a workaround for this..
I just made to run my port of Android Revolution HD 2.0 for i545 (I was porting it from i9505). Everything is working, except CDMA-networking. It's multilingual as well. If anybody wants - I could give it to test. I asked mike1996 for permission to port it, so it is permitted
purchased an 'EU' z5c from ebay
I was wondering why I cant get 4g signal only H+ when in 4g areas
I have read the only difference between the E5823 and E5803 is the cat 6/cat 4 lte, I dont really know what this means but I assume this might be the problem
4g is set to 'preffered' in network settings menu
network provider is Three
any ideas?
Have you contacted your service provider? might be that you are prioritized to use HSPA, they might have to do a reset on you in their system or just enable 4G etc?

The phone was purchased unlocked and I have been using my Three SIM card in another phone (GS3 LTE) previously and this had 4G signal no problem ... dont see why putting the SIM into a new phone would then change some setting on the network provider's side..
I will contact them anyway
very disappointing I fear maybe this EU version is blocking Uk 4g somehow
thank you

Hello Everyone,
I have encountered a problem with my samsung galaxy s6 edge, i bought this phone from ebay, and i am using this phone in sweden with my halebop(telia) network. Problem is when i am in coverage area of 4G my phone will show the signal and will be have full coverage and everything works perfectly, but when i am in area where there is only 3g, my 3g works but there is no coverage on my phone, i tried to do it manually assiging the network in 2g/3g auto mode it says network registered but still no network on my phone. Before buying i even checked the history of the phone, it was not black listed and not stolen nothing. Moreover if i use my sim of Pakistan or sim of Dubai it works perfectly even shifts to network (if i chose 2G/3G auto or 2G only ) it works fine but don't work with my sim.
Can anyone please guide me because i am searching it internet but couldn't find anything. I also order new unlock code and even after inserting the code phone says unlock successful but still problem of the coverage.

Is your network provider a 4G network?
Like in the UK EE network is 4G only, therefore if i try to switch to 2G it will not get signal.
Maybe custom ROM can solve this? HM?
sorry for digging an old thread.
I have the same problem but reversed. My s6 edge can detect 3g 4g network but connects to 2g only. otherwise it has no service.
i bought it from UAE. it was working fine there. but now in Pakistan it connects to 2g only.
if i switch to 3g only or LTE/3G/2G auto then it doesnt connect to network. i can manually search for networks in that mode bit cannot register to network.
In 2G only mode, it works fine.
