Hoping you all can help
I have an Verizon LG V10. I put my TING sim card in it and voice/text work fine but there is no mobile data.
I contacted TING and they directed me to a webpage with instructions to set a new APN. I followed the instructions but it still will not work. Every time I attempt to turn on the mobile data a pop up appears instructing me to call Verizon to add a mobile service.
I consider myself to,but he intelligent about this stuff and I'm hoping,you all could help. Thanks

Ok, I purchased this LG Optimus T P509 from T-Mobile. I unlocked it officially for AT&T, it is for my sister who wanted an Android but no data plan. It is perfect for her. She loves the keyboard, gets great service, nice texting interface, but she can't MMS! I went into settings and set-up the AT&T APN, and the AT&T MMS APN. The phone was going onto mobile data and to prevent her getting a high bill, I turned off mobile data. With a mobile data block there is no MMS! So I bought this app called APNDroid. I said keep MMS enabled, turn APN off. MMS doesn't work. APNDroid worked on my phone. However, my phone is a carrier unbranded Gingerbread phone.
PLEASE HELP! I have been looking high and low for months. Any help is appreciated. We don't want a data plan but I don't understand why MMS works on my data-plan less phone and not on hers. She gets a download button for MMS, it says downloading.... then failed!

Hello all,
I have been unable to find a clear answer to this question--I hope you will bear with me:
I have a Galaxy Note 2 from Verizon running Android 4.3. Before leaving for a trip to India this week I confirmed with Verizon customer service that the phone was unlocked. In Delhi I purchased a local sim card (from Airtel) and inserted it. Voice and text work perfectly but the data plan does not. The sim works when inserted into other phones but not in this one. The Airtel techs cannot figure it out. I have access to the APN settings under the Mobile Networks menu and have edited the Name, APN, Server, APN type etc. as indicated by Airtel but no dice. When I go to "Select" it finds Airtel after some spinning and when I select Airtel from "Network Operators" I get a "registered on network" message but still can't get data.
Is it the case that Verizon locks the data on this phone? Is there any way for me to unlock this from India? I don't really know anything about rooting phones.
Any help appreciated!
I also use the same handset in India and use other operator sim...no trouble so far in data

I bought this unlocked Sprint LG g3 LS990 through ebay India to use it as CDMA phone. But due to bugging sprint activation message and seller unable to help me get rid of it. I started messing up with phone and finally corrupted its software. Somehow I managed to root it back with Android version 5.0.1 and now i am using it as GSM phone. But the problem is that I am unable to do Internet settings in phone. Under Mobile Networks in Settings i dont get any option to add new APN. All i am getting is Mobile Data which should be ticked.
Then 4g settings under which network operator and IP address options are there.
Then Comes Network Mode which i have opted Global.
Then Connections optimizer and when i click on it, it says " Setup has not finished yet. Please try again later." Please help me how to get mobile data working in it. I am able to use wifi.
Thanks in advance.
Hi. Sorry if this has already been addressed. Did my best search but didn't find anything. I was wondering if it's possible to use this phone on carrier's like Metro PCS? For some reason, I can't connect at all. It just gives me the "Not a Verizon SIM" when I put the SIM in. I tried with cricket mobile and was able to connect, so not sure why metro doesn't work at all.
I've tried apn settings. Tried to format, restart, etc. Metro wasn't able to activate it over the phone and suggested I go to the store, but upon calling the store, they told me they don't activate Verizon phones. Could this just be an issue with metro? Or has anyone gotten it to work? Thanks!
Is the phone unlocked? Mine is unlocked, I also get the message "Not a Verizon Sim", but the message doesn't affect my ability to connect using another providers sim.
Hi i just got the verizon g6. The original owner did a factory reset but now i am trying to set it up and its asking for account details of (original) owner.
How can this be corrected? Does google or verizon assist with this.
The phone is unblocked through verizon. IMEI checked and the previous owner is being helpful
I got this bit solved with the help of the previous owner.
I am on mint sim and have got the phone and sms working BUT when i got to turn mobile data on it asks i call Verizon (i set up APN as per mint web site)
Any ideas?
Ok now I get mobile data from settings, but short cut from dropdown menu to turn on mobile data doesnt work (neither does the switch from the 'mobile network's). In both cases it asks I call verizon customer service.
The only way i can turn on mobile data is from settings , and at the top there is a message in blue 'mobile data is off, turn on?'
How can i fix the 'call verizon customer service' and enable mobile data from the dropdown short cuts? ThIs is a pain.
The sim inside the phone is Mint Sim.
Any ideas?

now my ability to turn on 4g is gone - see red text below. That blue message is now gone and I can't turn on data. Any ideas ?
Will rooting this solve my problem. Again I am on mint with an unlocked verizon LG G6.
Thanks.
