AT&T No Data - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Hey I got the AT&T S3 and it can send and receive sms and calls but there's no mobile data. I made sure that data was on under the setting and a data plan is active on the SIM card. Please help with this problem. Thanks.

Did you re-use your existing sim card? Sounds like maybe an issue there.

Yes it is the same microSIM that I used on my international S3. I have switched SIM cards on phones before without any problems. Do you think it a problem with the phone or should I call AT&T and see if they can fix it on their end?

I would give them a call, or head into a store. They might have blocked it, or it might have gotten damaged.

I was having a problem with data the last two days and earlier today, but now it seems to have been fixed. Maybe it was a network problem? Does it still not work?

I'm not sure I'll have to check when I get home. Right now I am using the SIM in my international S3 and data is working fine.

you need to switch to a LTE data plan...

Urgent Help! Can't Answer Calls???

For some reason my rooted stock S2 (from Bell unlocked using on Rogers) can't answer calls. I can call out without any problems but if someone is calling me, it'll hang up on them as soon as I answer. They then get a busy signal.
Any ideas?

Can't find phone.apk.... I deleted the cache of dialer.apk and the problem still remains. I also completely turned off call blocking and everything.
When I answer a call, it immediately disconnects.
This is interesting to hear. My wife and i are both on rogers. She has a rooted and rommed captivate and i have a rooted and rommed nexus s. We are both having the same issues for that last couple days. Weird stuff. Never happened before.
I put my SIM card into my wife's S2 (also stock and rooted) and it works properly. Accepts incoming calls. So it must be something with my device specifically and not network related. Strange... I've removed any possible suspect apps to no avail so far. Perhaps a core app update is the culprit.
Ya I am confused lol. I have been on the same rom for a few weeks now. Just started happening to both of us all of a sudden. Not sure if it is a certain app that we both have installed and its screwing up our phones? Just not sure at all.

Please let me know if you find a solution. I am trying a few things but no luck
I've been having the same issue with incoming calls all weekend, in my case I was able to rule out hardware by swapping SIMs with another Rogers phone.
On the phone a few times with Rogers Tec Support and I was told this was an issue on their end, from what I'm told it's related to the Rogers One Number service which I did register for a couple of months back. Although I don't use the RON service anymore it's still active on my account.
I just had Tec Support remove it from my account and am just now getting my incoming calls again.

This may be it. I recently signed up for Rogers One Number but never use it. That's the difference me and the wife's S2. She's not registered for One Number. Hmmmm..... But it's weird that my SIM accepts incoming calls on her device though.

[Q] Cant text or call one person

Phone: HTC Amaze 4g
Provider: T mobile
Okay I have been having this problem for about 2 months now and I'm tired of it ! I cannot call or text just one person in my contacts *my girlfriend* and I'm really trying everything possible to try and fix it. I've deleted her contact , I've entered her number manually, I've factory reset my phone. I can call her once in a while but its usually rarely ! I can get her texts but not her calls. And she can't get my texts or calls. Someone please help and thank you
Did you buy your phone on Craig's or Ebay or Backpage?
No I got the phone brand new from t mobile. Before we were able to talk fine and then just one day we couldn't for some reason.
Could be Sim related. Walk into a Tmo store and see what they say.
Is it rooted and Rom'd?

What could be wrong with my sim card ? And I think ill have to. And no my phone is completely stock with no modifications.
check if she accidently blacklisted you or you blacklisted her. That happened to me before.

I checked her phone I'm not on the blacklist.
Try your sim card in another phone and call/text her. I'd it works its your phone if not the possibly your sim. You can also try the same thing with her phone to see if the issue is her sim.
Good luck!

Galaxy Note (I717, AT&T version) Signal Issues

Ok so I finally fixed my charging issues with a new charger port, exact same piece as the last one, but now I'm not receiving texts or calls.
I have never rooted this phone, I have only updated it to 4.1.2, and I did a clear cache and factory reset just to make sure it wasn't a buggy app or anything. But still I get no texts or calls, and that's a major issue. I'm not sure what's wrong with it, I made sure every connection on the inside was connected. Someone please help, I can't deal with a phone giving me more issues.

I'd rather not have to deal with AT&T, their customer service has always been a pain for me to use. The network works just fine using my older phone, which is only using 3G, and it works fine on my parents' phones and they also use the Note but they've never had issues with the charge port or the network like I have. Is it just something with the new pcb that has the charge port?
Modem
Try finding the stock modem for your device and flashing it from twrp, I had a bit of a signal issue on mine earlier and that fixed it
If you are using a sim card from another phone, you will need to get a 4G sim card from at&t. Or you can deal with customer service and ask them to reprovision your sim card.

And I'm using my 4G sim in my old phone, the note came with the 4G sim.
It is the usb charge port that you replaced causing the problems. Went through 3 different ones to get one that worked. Double check that you got the grey wire connected properly also. Look for version 3 parts.

Tether/Hotspot not working?

I can get my device to turn on the hotspot and I can connect other devices, but I have no internet on my phone or the device I connected to from the hotspot (say, my laptop). I am on AT&T in the US and typically in the past I need root to allow hotspot, as most devices on AT&T will give you an error message to go buy a tethering package before you can enable. But that isn't happening with this device, as I can actually connect just without the internet working. So I'm not sure if this is an issue with this phone itself or if this is still an AT&T block, just in a different way. Let me know if you can get access to hotspot and if so what you are doing. Thanks!
Anyone?
I have no problem with hotspot.
AT&T was known for restricting internet sharing for user who dont have tethering plan,
So why dont you try with other sim which has tethering plan?
My carrier doesnt have that limitation, so cant really give you best answer
Go to apn and delete the bottom apn, that will fix it
I have dual sim version (L29). Two 4g sims inserted. Sim1 as main sim.
When tethering my laptop on Sim1, I cannot browse the internet on my phone. Whatsapp messages do not send or receive.
Anyone having similar issues? I'm sure this used to work fine before on my Samsung S5

Hi, just got the Huawei Mate 10 pro BLA-L29 C636 for Christmas (Orange operator).
I am experiencing the same issue while Hotspot / Tethering is activated : I cannot use Internet on my phone.
I've tried to delete the bottom APN but it did solved the problem..
Can you help me to explain how did you delete it and which one ?
Thanks

Hi i have the same problem, when my tethering is active i cannot have internet on the device, only on my computer. I tried to delete the APN and reset them but still not working. I got my phone today . Model ALP-L29.
Well I didn't get the best solution but for the people like me with the tethering issue on model ALP-L29 they can put the sim on the sim 2 slot and tethering and device will have internet. But I still waiting to find a real solution for slot 1 sim. I hope it helps

This is nuts. I too have the Mate 10 dual sim version, and had the same issue; data on my connected device but NOT on the handset itself when hot spot connected. Only 1 APN.
And sure enough, changing the SIM into SIM2 slot fixed this; data simultaneously on handset and connectyed device. But this defeats the purpose of me choosing this model as I wanted the micro SD storage!
So any further advice on getting SIM 1 enabled properly woudl be great.
cheers

wow! i have same experience. sim1 tether, internet doesnt work on phone only on connected device. sim 2 tether, internet works on both device and phone.
another huawei bug! i spent hours on the phone to my mobile provider typing in APN details!!! furious with huawei and this buggy junk phone!!!!!

I spent an hour on chat support with Huawei this morning and they confirmed this is not correct functionality and to return it to the retailer. Bit hard as this is a grey import in the UK and I don't want to send it back to Hong Kong. Would love to know if anyone has genuinely managed to get SIM1 working on the dual-sim model for tethering?

will that actually change anything though, what could possibly be changed as everyone has the exact same bug.
im so surprised more people arent complaining about the bugs in this phone.

You're right. This seems a common theme so I've returned the phone and am getting a LG V30. Same price. Huawei aren't quite there yet to be in the Premium phone category. Ok Google never worked; WhatsApp only notified me of messages half the time. Many small issues that collectively ruin the experience....

Question 1TB version sim card not inserted

I've had 2 1TB ultras and both have had issue,
Sim cards stop working, can't male calls nor sms.
Have to restart phone for the sims to work.
Anyone else experience the same?
Bought mine directly from Samsung
My EE sim card doesn't work but Vodafone sims have no issue.
I noticed this issue after Feb update.
512gb has no such problems.

It's really strange, now only sim 2 works!
I think it's a know issue with samsung as 1tb have been out of stock in the uk for weeks.
Yes, that's why I said it's best to get it replaced (not repaired).
Definitely mate, I was wondering if anyone else had experienced the same?
Strangely my phone reads my Vodafone sim only. EE sim isn't the recognised in either sim tray.
I had an update last night, not sure if that had anything to do with it?
I nevertheless factory reset my phone and my ee sim is working, keeping an eye on it for now.
Seems to be fine for now after factory resetting.
Looks its isolated issue no one else has experienced it with 1tb version.
I just had this issue with my s21 ultra after an update on Sunday it would say i was changing carriers and to call verizon. I have re flashed the firmware ad factory reset it but after 5-10 minutes after a restart itll kick me off the network. Got it replaced with a s23ultra but tried 2 sim and the esim in it to try and get it to work and nothing.
