Hi, I was just in Chile and purchased a note 3 pro and as soon as I slide my sim card (from a Chilean carrier) everything works just fine. Data, 4g, calling, no problem.
But when I returned home (Venezuela) and put my Venezuelan sim card , it picks up the carrier fine and I can call and send text sms, but no mobile data of any kind, of course I checked the phone supports my 4g bands (band 3-1800 begin one of them), and I have tried everything in the APN settings menus and still no data or 4g. Any ideas? Might be a software issue? I'm running latest MIUI global stable release but I intend to flash custom ROMs.
reset APN. anyway, there is a bug that you have to turn on/off airplane mode to activate the mobile data. happened to me twice since I bought this phone a month ago.

Did you try manually writing the APN?

Hello guys I think I have a problem. After installing this (CyanogenMod 7.2-cooper-KANG-RC0-Android 2.3.7) my phone's data capabilities like 3g is not working anymore.
I am using the baseband S5830DXKT5 (2.3.6) from SIngtel. However, after flashing (before I install cm 7.2) I tested the 3g and I connected to the internet and it was fine. But when I install this ROM, my data capabilities fail.
I have the proper internet settings that my network provided me.
I have a signal and Messaging works. I can also browse the internet through wifi.
Help?

Did you manually enter the APN settings and press the circle ?
No, the settings was already there. I tried to manually change it but the parameters are already the same as what people in my country suggested.
The circle is already toggled.

im using CM7.2 as well but does not have issues.
Since CM 7.2 there is an additional settings included in the Wireless & networks
1.Mobile Networks > Network Preferences

> ensure you select WCDMA Preferred if you want 3G

Found this in the other tread.
I had tried it and it still doesnt work.
I also read the whole tread and to no avail, my data connection still does not work.
Ive tried using different baseband versions and different roms.
Whatever baseband I use, the 3g and data connection works. However, once I install any rom there is, Ive tried three (Kang, Ice Cream Sunday, CyanoAce), I just lose 3g and data connection.
can anyone help?
Now basically i also had the same problem... Intially wen i flashed CM version my DATA nor 3G working.. Later called up my svc provider they told to delete the OLD APN and he guided me thru the whole process of putting new APN.. Viola a restart my DATA came back May be u can try this once...
This was an issue for Telcel in Mexico when the upgrade to 2.3 came to Galaxy Ace, the fix was changing the Radio file (to a latin american one) but in this case is all zipped and i don't know if this can help actually.
Just a stab in the dark, try turning on data roaming... worked for me... with Grif's CM 7.1 with an unlocked Galaxy Ace not running it's native SIM. Worth a shot?
Maybe its your APN setting
If you're using globe, they have 3 or 2(not sure) different APN for postpaid and prepaid subscriber.
for postpaid I think its "internet.globe.com.ph"
for prepaid its "http.globe.com.ph"

Can you explain further? I think this maybe the issue because my unit was not bought here in our country. It was bought by my dad in another region.

wow this actually worked.
thanks a lot man!
---------
so for people the will encounter this kind of problem in the future, here is what apparently happened.
Globe (our Network Provider) sets the default APN to the postpaid instead of the prepaid one when you install new ROMS.
to think that this may be this simple. ive researched changing CSCs to flashing different basebands and roms.
case closed!
No problem. Glad I helped.
Hi All,
I know its a topic which has been addressed differently in different threads. I am a user from India and have a GSM SIM. I have got a Verizon S4 phone. I tried using it with Vodafone SIM and get a problem in using it. Surprisingly a NOTE 2 from Verizon works just fine. I am able to use it for data with 3G but not able to use it for voice. Following steps have been tried already.
- Default Options of using Global Mode and GSM/UMTS ** Doesnt search the network at all.
- Hidden Menu Changes using # codes. ** Shows network but emergency mode only.
- Phone Info app to change the mode. ** Shows network but emergency mode only.
- RF Band change using the hidden menu. ** Shows network but emergency mode only.
It does say that it has GSM radio but cant be used for some software reason I suppose. I checked with Verizon Rep and was told that it cannot be used in India with a GSM SIM and would need the Verizon SIM only to connect with International Roaming.
Can I install a I-9505 ROM on this and then would it pick up the GSM signal for voice and data. Please help.
I don't think your Verizon rep is correct. I bought a Verizon S4 just before going to Europe for 1 month. I used first a gsm SIM card from Germany, and then a gsm card from France. I had to add APN's to get data (I used "offline sim APN database" from the market to help get the necessary APN info), but had no trouble with voice or data for my entire trip. The gps and navigation services on the phone were extremely valuable on a couple of occasions, as was the wifi hotspot. In France, you can purchase 2 GB of data service for 20 Euros. I checked with Verizon global services ( 908-559-4899 outside the US or 800-711-8300 from inside ) before I left, and the Verizon S4 was sim unlocked out of the box. They did not make a big deal of my plan to use other SIM cards either.

Installed WamanLite I9505 ROM
Hello All,
I found that Wanam Lite I-9505 ROM can be installed on Verizon S4. I installed it and patched it with Loki-Doki patch to boot up as I got the Verizon Software error. Yet my phone doesnt pick up the GSM signal for voice and SMS. It picks up the signal and I am able to browse internet on it but no calls or SMS. Please help...!!
Is there any way that I can install or flash a regular GSM radio over the phone ? Or tweak it in someway to use the GSM signal as primary for voice and sms.

I have also Verizon's S4 (i545) and use it in GSM network with only one small problem - it will not send SMS with in-ROM SMS apk to international-formatted numbers (+380-XX-XXX and so on), but send without problem to local-formatted numbers (XX-XXX...) All the rest is working good.
Could you tell me please - how did you get to install i9505's ROM on your device? I have also Verizon's error after installation, and don't know how to run it...
Hi I too have the vzw s4 in india.. and niether voice nor sms is functioning on it.
By rooting it and installing apn manager I was somehow able to get the data 3g working for vodafone ind.
I too am struggling to find a solution to this.
Ive haventvyet flashed it. I came across a guy who said he will be able to get it working but somehow I havent yet been abke to follow up with him.
Guess we both are on the same boat.
Lets keep in touch and update if any of us finds a solution to this.

You all can try to flash my port of ARHD 2.0 ROM, that can be found it this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2346365
It is fully GSM and as international as regular GSM-version of S4. CDMA can be turned on only on hidden test application. Everything else is working and was tested in different networks.
I too created a post seeking help in this regard but didn came across anything concrete yet.
Everyone out here believes it to be a world phone and some have even been using the gsm network in europe but its not working in india.
Ive failed to understand that how come its detecting signals with functioning data is not working on either voice or sms.
Tmobile and atnt gs4 guess have this service menu from where they can be network unlocked explicitly..but unfortunately I havent yet come any such thing for vzw gs4.

I tried installing the ARHD 2.0 ROM but still the same issue persists. The phone picks up the signal for data but when tried selecting network manually or automatic using the GSM / UMTS option, it says disable data to search networks, when data is disabled, the phone shows available networks says phone registered to network but the status still says Emergency Calls Only. Also if tried dialing a phone it says no network available. There has to be something in the modem settings which can be tweaked through the service menu which will change the use of GSM for voice and data and not use CDMA.

Did you do a full wipe when flashing ROM? It is mandatory. You will lose all your data though. If there will be no changes after full wipe - then try to install this card into another phone and ckeck if voice calling is working.

I did a full wipe. I have 2 Galaxy S4's and also an Optimus G. The card that I am using is my regular SIM card so its not an issue with the card for sure. The ROM was installed on both the phones and neither of them picked up the signal for voice and SMS.

Ok. To go and chose type of radio-band you may install Battery Monitor Widget from Google Play (well, the main purpose of this app is different, but it is what comes first in my mind). Put it's widget on the desktop, open it and go for bottom right button, named Test. There you can first menu (Device Info) and there you will be able to change all variations of the radio bands and their combinations, available for i545. If non of the combinations will help - mosty probably your operator works on unsupported for this phone cellular format.

I have the Phone Info app which allows band select. Tried on all possible modes. Same issue persists. Strangely the Note 2 purchased from Verizon works flawlessly without any mods or changes. I am thinking of giving to some professional phone guy who may have code level flashing or modding tools to try and fiddle around with settings of the modem or the radio to pick up the signal here.

Hey phrozenwire, I am able to use both voice n sms now in my VZW GS4.
And I literally did nothing to make the voice n sms functional. I too had troubles for like 2 weeks and it didn work for me then.
I rooted the phone to add apn settings and the data got activated. But today morning when I woke up ... surprise surprise .. it began to work.. rcvd sms and calls and I was so happy. . Last I remember I switched on the power save mode and my cell fell down twice and guess it did the trick for me.
Thanks all for your help and comments.

Hi All
My son has a Redmi 3, all OK. Was on original, global 7v but was having a lot of Google authentication issues. Unlocked bootloader, and installed gapps. At same time he run out of data on his sim. He was still having some issues so I installed latest global beta, rooted version. All seemed OK, I can place my LTE sim in, and mobile data is working. His sim, works now with data in another phone but not the Redmi.
I have forced signal to be just wcdma but still says no mobile data. Issue seems to be with just the 3g enabled sim.
Any advice to resolve?
I have jio sim. I used it in redmi 2 first, it was working fine.
Now that i have put the sim in my honor 5x it shows signal but internet is not working. I tried the same sim in oneplus two and it was again working fine.
Can anybody tell me what should i do to make it work?
Thanks for help.

Remove both sims, turn it off, place jio sim and turn it on. Make sure LTE mode is on for the sim.
Go to mobile networks, and choose accesspoints, select loop or jionet if seen.
If list is empty, click menu, create, name it jionet in first to items, click save. and select it. see if it helps.
Mine was having trouble, so i flashed Krexus rom, it's connecting now.

Which model of Honor 5X are you using ?
Indian Model (KIW-L22) Supports Jio sim. Other country models might support Jio sim if it is configured for Band 3 (1800Mhz), Band 5 (850Mhz), Band 40 (2300Mhz).
Mine is L24, it supports Bands 3 n 5.. i got JIO signal too but No LTE data even after creating APNs with EMUI. Only after changing to CM/Krexus, data started working. Tried APN jionet and www none worked even after restarts.

You should contact JIO customer support if the issue persists.
I have KIW-L23 which supports only Band 3. Still I get LTE data after setting up the APN as jionet
dont worry, this happened to me too, just do this,,
remove sim card,
make sure you insert jio in sim 1
reboot
and this is important "SELECT DEFAULT SIM CARD FOR DATA" in settings
reboot,
you should be all set now,
For me, somehow Jionet apn did not work.. apn www worked fine.
Have few queries.
In Settings -> Dual SIM settings
Have you set the 4G/3G slot to the JIO SIM slot?
Have you set JIO SIM slot as default for mobile data?

are you on lineageOS ROM?
So I've just got my Black Shark 2 global device from the official channels. Since I've had the phone the mobile data has not worked. The APN settings seem to be automatically on the phone when I put the sim card in (and correspond to Vodafone UK APN settings), voice works okay. There is no 3g/4g icon on the status bar, but if I swipe down on the notification panel it says Vodafone 3G.
I've tried enabling roaming etc but no success. I've never had an issue like this before, total no network. Are there any tests I can do to narrow down my issue.
Support is non existent from black shark. sim card works in my oneplus 3T

Just to add. I'm in the UK seems to be running Joy UI with is very similar to stock with a few modifications.
Go into mobile data, advanced and then you won't be able to see APN unless you slide up, click on that and you can change it to pp.vodafone or contract. Or add a new APN and it should work. I just had the same problem with Vodafone myself, and I just figured it out after an hour as no website helps you about this phone
