EDIT: Problem has been fixed, see below for the working APN Settings. The root of the problem appeared to be that I had 2 Sim Cards in the phone and the data connection was defaulting to the wrong one for some reason.
I have been unable to get data or MMS working on a new Honor 5X which I have installed Cyanogenmod 13 on. Have been all over T-Mobiles website and have even talked to them on the phone. They were unwilling to help because my phone was purchased unlocked instead of from their network. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think there is a problem with custom roms on using MMS /data. I use Straight Talk on At&T network and with right APN settings, I only get mms and no data for gapps like play store and maps. So if you want to keep using CM13 switch to using 3G mode (it works for me, i get data +mms, everything works great except slower internet speeds). Or return to Stock ROM. I am using Stock ROM since last week (B331) and I am getting data+mms on 4G with the same straight talk apn settings.

Thanks for the response. As much as I need the phone to work with data and MMS, the stock operating system is so inferior to Cyanogenmod that I will not return just yet. The Honor 5x is a fairly popular unlocked phone and I know there are plenty of people using it on T Mobile so I am really hoping somebody in the same boat as me can explain what they did to get it working.

Is there a reason why you're not using a nougat rom?
Just curious
I just had the same issue and I reflashed it and all is good. I tried lineages and found it slow. Cm13 is great

Completely fair question, the phone is for my father who does not know anything about modded operating systems so I needed something that wasn't going to be updated with nightlies all the time.

Was this really all you had to do to fix it? Can you tell me exactly what CM13 build you are running successfully with data and MMS on the honor 5X? And are you on T-Mobile as well? It seems their network seems to be why we can't get the data working...

Ah, makes sense haha :good:
I do have to say though, nougat is def worth switching to and it's already pretty stable (although ofc is getting updated frequently). I think los13 is not maintained anymore although maybe that stability is what you're looking for.
Every nougat rom (well the ones I've tried which is quite a few) has been much smoother than marshmallow too so that's a plus
Sorry, off topic
I would suggest a clean flash of the latest update if you want to stay with marshmallow (and if the issue isn't with the apn settings). But since I'm not on tmobile, I can't suggest specifics unfortunately
I did a full wipe of the system and flashed the last cm13 build. I'm on att but had the same issues. The APN settings were fine and no data.

This is where I think the issue is, I have not been able to find anyone who can confirm with me that I am using the right APN settings for my device and carrier. T-Mobile wouldn't tell me either because the phone is unlocked and was not bought through them
I would try a reflash but the phone is with my father who lives in different country so that isn't an option right now unfortunately.
Thanks for the help regardless.

Yeah I would like to try LineageOS but I have had nightlies from CM13 soft brick my phone twice (I use an Asus Zenfone) so I just don't trust weekly builds any more. Like I said to the other poster here, I would try a reflash but can't right now due to the location of the phone I guess my dad will just have to deal with no data or MMS for now.
Try los 14.1 now

Hey guys,
I'm absolutely loving the new CM9 unofficial that has been posted and everything has been running great except for the fact that I have lost LTE capabilities on my Rogers network. This is the first rom (ICS or GB) that I have been unable to use LTE. I am running the new I717UCLE2 Modem hoping that would have fixed it but it has not. Even the previous UCLD3 modem on this CM9 rom specifically stopped my LTE. HSPA is working fine which I thought pointed to missing APN settings or the like but I have tried inputting Rogers LTE settings manually without any luck. Maybe I am just putting the wrong information in? Can someone on Rogers confirm that they have their LTE working on the new CM9 rom and post their LTE apn settings as well. Thanks a lot guys
EDIT: Never mind, a little bit of further tinkering with the APNs on my end seems to have fixed it . My settings are as follows for anyone that may have similar problems:

Thanks for the info: I actually have the Telus version of the i717 but I'm wondering how you are liking CM9 unofficial and how stable it is.
Also, if you have a link to rooting the i717 please post it
Seconded ^^^^^^
I'm running stock Telus i717 and am pretty much too scared to delve into flashing my note. Also running a mac and am yet to find a decent tutorial for mac flashing android.

I have the i717 with Rogers and noticed with CM9 ROMS that I lose the LTE APN, whereas with any UCLE2 ROM, the LTE APN is detected. Instead, 5 3G/4G (I presume) APNS are loaded. I assume you probably had the same.
Which ones did you delete/edit to get LTE Working? and does the connection meter actually show 4G LTE?

Hey guys, I'm running Aokp and randomly lost data connection today. Everything has been working great and I love the ROM. Cell connection is fine but my data connection just stopped working.

How are your speeds? Mine are extremely slooooowwwww
I also having trouble with data connections. Tried the fix above and have only edge network. Has anyone been able to get 3g? I am running Task's AOKP and everything was fine until this morning sometime.
Worked like a charm. Thanks guys.
I had the same issues starting today (dallas/fort worth area) and the above apn setting changes got my data back. Speeds are lower than before but not by a whole lot, getting 3.2Mbps down instead of hovering around 4 or so before. Upload is horrid though, 228kbps now...but hey it works again
On AOKP, the APN is already setup that will work. Instead of the first one, choose ATT LTE and change the apn to "Phone" Should work just fine.

I started having problems Friday and into Saturday in places I always have good service. Seems to have cleared up today, though.
I'm now having an issue sending pictures through the stock jellybean SMS app 'messaging'. I hit the attachment icon, navigate to the picture I'd like to text and it sends, and shows 'sending' forever. Eventually it will notify me that the picture failed to deliver. Then it will continue to try to send to no avail. Never had this problem until the other day when all of this happened. Any corrrelation/thoughts?

Hello. Sorry for bumping an old thread but I have this problem on my Galaxy Nexus AOKP milestone 6 maguro. I'm with Wind Mobile in Canada so how would I get that info or where did you get that info so I can find it for Wind. I drop my 3g connection at LEAST 3 times a day and its driving me insane (turning on airplane mode to fix), probably going back to stock if I can't get help.
Anyone care to help? Thanks!

I did what you said, checked out apn settings for wind and they are already in there.

Go to your device forum where you can get more help because we can't help you. We don't have your device or carrier. What works on one phone with AOKP may be broken on another.

Ever since flashing aokp months ago, my data has been intermittent. During peak times like rush hour, phone will have full signal, but just won't connect. Icon stays on 3g. Tried different roms, full wipes etc, same problem. It's maddening. Just tried changing apn, hopefully that will fix it. Will report back Monday rush hour.

I have an att&t lgog and the other day my service was cancelled. I took a trip to radio shack and got the net 10 $50/month unlimited plan, had them activate it with the included microsim, and I'm good to go now. my only question is about the modems we have available. my data connection drops every so often now and sometimes web pages in chrome hang and require a refresh to load up. being on net 10, which I'm pretty sure still uses at&t towers(?) am I able to use any att radios we have?
I'm also using Net10 on my Optimus. I've had no problems in 3 months, regardless of ROM or radio (Stock ICS, Stock JB, and AOKP). I'd check your APN settings.

well I got the MMS fixed. only problem now is dropping data connection which I'm guessing could be my radio. and right now on houstonns rootbox, I was on the unofficial liquid smooth before that with same issue.
I have a ATT plan and just purchased a Verizon HTC one m8 unlocked (i suppose every verizon phone is unlocked).
I have normal calls and texts. But no data connection. Do you guys think this is an APN problem or I will never get data on my device due to some other crazy reason? I appreciate any thoughts.
Already tried many types of APN addresses:

Apn: phone

Its gotta be something with the APN. Bc I had a Verizon Note 2 Verizon S3 and Verizon S4 and they all worked on At&t network with no issues. Granted you will only get 3G data not LTE .

Sorry, it was a typo from the website that I got the APN, but at the time I did it right just the way you typed.
Anyway, problem solved. I went to a ATT store, they worked in the computer and setup my APN the very exactly way as before. Do you guys think there is a possibility that ATT staff need to "unlock" the band or something like that?
Thanks for the support

Highly unlikely, never heard of such a thing.
You either entered the APN info improperly (even a single incorrect character or extra space will screw the whole deal); or you didn't try the correct APN that your account is provisioned for.

I have an unlocked US Cellular S6 Edge model G925R4. I have rooted it and currently running stock ROM (Settings image attached).
I am using TMobile SIM on it and I am getting cellular network and am able to make calls. However I am having serious issues with Mobile data.
Mobile data did not work by default, I installed APN changer app and added the following settings for Tmobile:
Name: T-MOBILE
APN: fast.tmobile.com
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port: <Leave in Blank>
Username: <Leave in Blank>
Password: <Leave in Blank>
Server: <Leave in Blank>
MMSC: hxxp://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: <Leave in Blank>
MMS port: <Leave in Blank>
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: <Leave in Blank>
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN Protocol: Leave it to the Default one
Once I do this i see data network sparsely, most of the times it does not work. Multiple reboots did not make any difference.
To change the APN I am using "Change APN" app. I see the T-Mobile entries I have made on it sometimes but sometimes i do not (screenshot attached).
I saw on a similar post about correcting the permissions of few files in system/csc/ folder - namely customer.xml and features.xml. After doing this I saw the APN settings after reboot.
But they are gone after the next reboot. So I am not sure if the permission change made much difference.
I really like the phone but at this point it is unusable because of loss of Mobile data. Is there any way to improve the situation ? Be it a different kernel, ROM, modem or anything.
Also I have tried an AT&T sim on it with appropriate APN entries and mobile data did not work for it as well. So its not a problem pertaining to Tmobile network coverage.
Id love to hear suggestions from the community as I really would like to use this phone going forward.
I have the same phone. I was using it on cricket at first and now I am using it on T-mobile. The apn should stick even though it shows the unable to view access point name settings. Access is restricted.
The only problem I have is when it connects to 4glte it has no bars and I cannot send texts messages. If you go into the service mode just set it for gsm/wcdma
Here's screenshot of mine on tmobile
*also I think you are using a different kernel
Can you list the kernel you are using? I'm not sure of that might be the problem.

Thanks for the link, I flashed the kernel from the link and when i added the APN i could see both network and data working fine. Network bars were almost full, but sadly after a reboot i again see no network and loss of data connectivity. I am able to make calls though.
At this point all I have done is changed the APN (tried both epc and fast). Apart from that I havent tried anything else. Just bugs me to think that everything worked perfectly which indicates that there is no issue with the phone/kernel/ROM. But again at the end its not working .. any suggestions ?
For me I would have to go into the service menu because 4g lte would not work. So I would set it to GSM/wcdma and that's what worked for me. Internet was a little slower though
But after today
I honestly just got fed up with it and went and traded it in for the t mobile version. It's a hassle because 4g lte wasn't working and sometimes mms messages would not properly go thru.
When I was using it on cricket it worked better than t-mobile though.

I honestly just got fed up with it and went and traded it in for the t mobile version. It's a hassle because 4g lte wasn't working and sometimes mms messages would not properly go thru.
When I was using it on cricket it worked better than t-mobile though.

I am leaning towards letting go of this phone as its too much hassle at the moment. Thing is I bought it off Ebay and at this point I am not really sure if the problem is with the phone or just the fact that I am using Tmobile SIM on a US Cellular phone. If I end up selling it I dont want someone else to suffer the same way.
Will a Tmobile specific variant be fine or will that cause similar issues ? I really like the phone but the mobile data part is really putting me off.
I too also got it off eBay the US cellular edition g925r4 and was in the same situation. I got mine for 400. But t mobile took it as a trade in for $140. A loss on my end but right now the s6 edge is $100 off so it was $579.99 minus the trade in credit I received. Also you get a year free of Netflix so that's not too bad...
The t mobile version I bought at the store works perfect mms, texting, WiFi calling it updated twice already so no issues here. Works perfect on 4g lte too
Hmm maybe I'll try swappa once before going with t-mobile. I don't want to get into contracts.
