I am having some issues making the switch and needed some help.
I purchased my Galaxy S2 from AT&T awhile back, rooted and installed task650's AOKP rom after I had issues with the ICS update, and have been running the latest build happily ever since with no problems. After my contract was up I got an unlock code from AT&T, purchased a sim from AIO and installed it. The phone booted up and never asked for the unlock code. I am able to make and receive calls and texts, but mobile data doesn't work. WiFi works just fine. I installed and ran GalaxSimUnlock and Galaxy S Unlock. Both programs indicated my phone was unlocked.
Is this an issue with AIO? The signal bars say AT&T on the phone, but I just assumed since AT&T owns AIO this was normal. Do I need to install a different rom and try to unlock again? I am going to try and track down a sim from a different carrier and see if that works. I have tried dialing *#7465625# to check the unlock status, but it returns the error "connection problem or invalid mmi code".
I have searched for answers, but I am clueless. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Sounds like your APN settings are not configured correctly with your new sim. Go into your APN settings and let us know what is set.

Here are screenshots of the only settings I could find.
I went on aio's site and found how to manually enter APN settings.
Followed the directions and all seems to be working now! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Hang on to that unlock code. When I moved from AT&T to Net10, my phone didn't ask me for an unlock code either. Net10 and AIO both use AT&T networks. But when I went to Canada and bought a local SIM there, it asked me for the code. Luckily, I had saved it.

I purchased a T-mobile Samsung Vibrant from Ebay. Then I rooted it and unlocked it by using an application available at Android Market. I inserted the Wind Sim Card. The phone works fine but the 3G service does not work. Do I have to reset the phone or does anyone know what to do?
Your carrier may not be running the 1700, 1900, or 2100 bands that the vibrant accepts for 3g.

You have to make sure you have the correct APN settings entered for your carrier (every carrier is different). Your phone will NOT automatically detect them.
You might also be using a carrier that uses a different frequency of 3G. There would be no way to get it to work unless your phone supports their frequency. Kind of like tuning into an FM station with an AM radio.
Thanks for your quick response. I entered the APN settings for my carrier and 3G works fine now. That's why I love the forums.

Can i ask how did you unlock your Phone? Is it faster on your new Carrier?
First I rooted my phone and get the busybox. The information is available by searching google 'root-your-samsung-vibrant-tutorial.' I can't send you a link cause I am new at this forum.
Then I used the 'Galaxy S Unlock' application which is available at the Android Market to unlock it. The other application 'SGS Unlock' did not unlock my phone.

Okay good everything i have. Now did you flash it while it was Stock JFD or JI6? And if you did have you tried any roms after you unlocked?
OK guys the title explains my predicament. I live in Costa Rica and am currently with the I.C.E for any of you that may be from here. I purchased a used S2 from a guy that bought it from Claro. So the first thing I did was get rid of the stock and I flashed everything like I wanted which is:
CheckROM v6
Using DarkKnight's Kernel
I'm using the KI3 radio but I have about 20 others and none of them changes my situation (coming up)
Original info was:
PDA-KG7
Phone- KG4
CSC - KH2
NOW here's the deal, my network icon has full bars but with an R for roaming. The phone works fine, I somewhat have data connectivity although SLOW, BUT when I go to APN settings there is nothing there NOR will it let me save a new APN, BUT I do get the 3G and H icons depending on where I am, I just can't program in a new APN or get rid of the Roaming icon no matter what ROM I flash, kernel or radio combination...
I have tried automatically and manually selecting my networks also, no dice...
I have of course already gone to *#*#4696#*#* and changed settings and tried all the variants but currently have it on WCDMA preferred.
I have also gone to *#2263# and tried all those variants but left it on WCDMA All Channels.
So I am more than open for any suggestions.
Go to Sammobile.com & search for stock firmware for your country/carrier (or just your country if they don't have any carrier specific firmware for your region), flash this firmware via Odin following whatever instructions Sammobile have for firmware downloaded from their site.
Once you've done that, check your APN setting & see if you have full connectivity. If for whatever reason your APN settings are blank (if you only end up downloading/flashing a country specific firmware only, for example), call your carrier for the APN settings and then enter these manually.
First thing you do when you have these problems is go back to stock & see if you can reproduce the problem or whether going back to stock fixes same

Thanks alot for your response MistahBungle.
Well on stock firmware is where I originally have the problem, that's the reason I began flashing ROMs and radios. IF I use a SIM from the original carrier which is Claro then all is well. BUT if I use a SIM from one of the other two carriers then the phone signal says roaming and I can't save any APN settings, no matter if I'm on stock firmware or any of the other ROMs or radio combinations that I have tried.
OK. Looks like we'll have to dig a bit deeper
So do you have baseband & IMEI in settings/about phone ? That issue of not being able to save APN settings with those other carriers sounds to me like a SIM or network issue. My first thought was it's a problem with the baseband, hence I suggested to flash a stock rom. But if that was the issue, you probably wouldn't be able to enter APN details for any sim/carrier.
Actually, now that I think about it. You know what it sounds like ? That the phone is network locked to your original carrier. That would explain everything.
If your phone *should* be locked (like you're on a contract where you only 'own' the phone at the end of the contract, etc), then I guess you can either pay the original carrier to unlock it. Or you can try one of the many unlock methods you can read about on here/apps you can get on the Market. Or if it shouldn't be locked yet it is, maybe ask the original carrier to unlock it.
You could also try flashing a specific rom for one of the other carriers, but I'm pretty sure that phone is network locked.

Ok just to clarify... all that makes sense, but what is ODD to me is that I don't think the phone is locked... I have full phone capabilities. I can make and answer calls, send texts, I even have full internet capability (even if I can't save any APN settings and there are none to be seen in the menu to choose from), I have the full speed of what I'm paying for from my carrier... the phone just won't let me SEE what APN settings it's using and in the signal it says R for roaming, but in networks it shows that it's connected to MY network...
Yes my IMEI does come up, BUT when I try one of those unlock apps I always get the message that it was unable to unlock it, but it's working with my carrier.
Ahhhh. OK. Yep that's a bit clearer now
OK. So we're pretty sure it isn't locked. That is really weird that it won't let you enter APN settings (regardless of which rom you're using), but you still have internet connectivity. Again, showing your network as the network connected to, yet showing up as roaming on the taskbar, is weird.
I've gotta say I"m pretty much stumped then. Haven't read a similar situation on here in the 4 mths I've been following the Q&A section of the board pretty much every day. Sorry I can't be of more help
Hopefully someone better qualified that me reads your post & can help. If you don't get a reply in a day or two, give it a bump.

Hey don't apologize, as you see no one else has ventured to give me a response either and I'm completely stumped myself. I looked for 5 days for an answer before I started a new thread because no one will go off on a noob for not searching quicker than I will, but I just haven't seen anyone with a similar situation on any forum anywhere...
THANKS AGAIN!!
Now to the rest of you devs, come on help a fella out and tell me what files I need to be looking for or modifying
Ok MistahBungles I got an update for ya... I decided to download a different firmware package (the PDA and Phone match mine but not the CSC), it's for Claro Argentina, BUT the ROM isn't branded when I booted it (the ROM the phone came had a CLARO boot logo (another reason I started looking for a different ROM)) and THIS ROM automatically has my APN settings in the menu without me doing a thing and the R in the signal is gone....
So now my question is how do I go about flashing the ROM I wanna use which is CheckROM but not lose my new found freedom (I ask because I'm not sure if this is a simple radio issue)

The Phone maybe Network Locked.(Not sim locked) As taken from gsmlocker.com:
Q. What sorts of locks are there?
A.
- lock phone to SIM
- lock phone to OPERATOR (network lock)
- lock phone to CODE (product lock = offer lock)
If your phone is locked to the sim you cannot use any other sim than the one you have: SIM broken makes phone useless.
If your phone is locked to an operator, you can use any SIM from this operator in your phone. You can switch between contract and prepaid as you wish, but not to a different operator.
If your phone is locked to a code, the phone checks a special "password" (GID) on the SIM that must match your phone. Providers often use different passwords for contract and prepaid.

OK I get your point BUT the phone if fully functional, I'm using a SIM from a different carrier, I have a data connection, make and receive calls, the whole nine yards, it just won't let me see what APN setting it's using and the R symbol is in the signal... once again, IT IS allowing the use of a different SIM from another carrier
Yes its the same as me! I have the R showing as well.(if you put the Claro sim in the R will disappear yes?)

Yes when I use a CLARO SIM the R disappears....
BREAKTHROUGH... I think that I have found the culprit... since I live in Costa Rica I use Market Enabler... apparently whatever it changes is causing the problem, which is weird because I have 3 other android devices, I use the same app on all of them and don't have this issue... NOW I'm really scratching my head... guess I need to contact the dev?
Ahhh. So Market Enabler is changing the CSC which is causing the network settings to disappear/barf.
Nice work finding the source of the problem Yeah tell the dev. Hopefully they can find some sort of fix/workaround so you can still use Market Enabler.

Well I just through and installed and tried ALL the market unlocking apps and they all apparently do the same thing and causing the same result, my phone thinks it's roaming, so now the head scratcher is why my other Android devices don't behave in the same way? This is my only Samsung. The others are Dell Streaks.

Sorry to bump this up, but I'm having the exact same problem. I was wondering if you ever figured out how to fix it.
I have a HTC Sensation and it happened to me right after I upgraded my custom kernel version to a newer one.
I never installed Market Enabler nor Market Access but when I check the SIM info it shows incorrect MNC and MCC values which
I can't change... they won't save in the system options.
I thought maybe my SIM card is screwed up, so I'm thinking of getting a new one from my service provider.
I just have to check it on a different phone first.

Ok, forget it. My SIM card was having issues, got a new one from my carrier. Everything is working fine now.
Hello from a noob. I have done the saferoot, text edited the sales dat to AWS and changed the other file (forget the name) from OFF to ON. Basically I switched the IMEI on my Metro account to a 545. I kept the same SIM. The store says there demo SIM does not pick up the internet either. The internet worked for 2 minutes and now there is no logo (4g lte, H+ etc) and no connection to the internet at all. I have tried going into the bands etc. but I think I'm missing something (I guess obviously). I have done "everything". Updated the APN settings etc. etc. It is stock rom except the root and the minor text edited changes. It is on 4.3 android. Can anyone out there please tell me how to turn off the stupid VZN LTE band option (I think that is my problem) however when I put in the *#276... command it doesn't pull up the menu that lets you access the band option like I've seen on Youtube. It gives me a different menu with UMTS at the top. I still haven't found the turn off the VZN LTE option. Any help at all would be appreciated. The dialing and text messaging work so it's a clean phone but for some reason the phone is blocking my damn internet. Thanks for the help.
When you installed the MetroPCS SIM, did you configure the APN to use their network?

Yes sir. I have done it all and nothing has helped. My only thought is finding that switch for the Verizon band or something else in the programming but I can't get to that damn menu. And the *#276.. number is not working on the phone anymore either.
So for those interested that may have Metro and are having the same problem I finally just updated the phone with the stock 4.4 firmware (clean wipe and all that) with Odin and it now works and the LTE no longer shuts off. After hours and hours of agony I finally did it. I tried rooting and everything on 4.3 and I don't care that I lost root - I'm just glad it works now. I do appreciate for what it's worth all the information on here and best wishes to you guys for all the future modding, unlocking the bootloader and all of that. See you around.
Hey Guys I bought a unlocked tmobile v10 on swappa that I wanna use on metropcs. I'm currently on verizon and will be moving to metropcs. I ordered my sim card yesterday. Will I have any trouble activating my sim in the v10? When I type in my phone on the list on metropcs it doesnt list it as compatible but I know it will be. Ive heard metropcs sims are linked to the imei on the phone and only that phone. So I have to reactivate any time I swap my sim in and out of different phones.
Also will I need to change any APN settings for metropcs or does it use all the same bands as tmobile does?
Thanks Guys Cheers!:highfive:
The APN settings will be locked when you get the phone, so you'll need to go into the dialer, dial 277634#*#, find "APN Unlock", click that then select the unlock option. Reboot your phone, then add your MetroPCS APN settings

Since MetroPCS is on T-Mobile's network, it's possible you won't even need to change your APN settings. If you do I imagine they'd have them on their website, but I've never used their service

Okay THanks! really appreciate it :fingers-crossed:
I recently purchased a refurbished phone Samsung Galaxy S21 5G. I just got it yesterday, and found that I am not able to use my mobile network. The sale said it is factory unlocked, and according to the descriptions, it should work just fine with my US Mobile SuperLTE network as well. When I switched on the phone, I see Verizon on the screen and so, I assume that it was locked to Verizon in the past.
When I tried to change the network settings, specifically the APN settings, I get the message "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user." The three dots on the top with reset to default is also greyed out along with Network mode in the previous page. When I click Network Operators and try to connect to the network manually, I am only able to connect to Verizon Wireless and no other. But, calling and messaging seems to work fine. Is it that the unlock process has not been completed properly? Did any of you face the same problem before? It would be great if there is something that I could do to unblock the APN settings as the rest of the phone works really well. The specific model is SM-G991U.
Thanks!

So, you need to go into the settings menu and find about phone, software info. What you want to find is the CSC information.
It will basically look something like this: XAA / XAA-XAA / XAA (or some other letters like VZW or ATT or TMB etc etc.
What taht will tell you is very helpful in determining what rom the phone is running and what kind of device it was originally. Find that in your device and post it and people will help you to figure out what it means.

Thank you so much for your reply. I looked through the software section in the about section. I found the following codes about the rom.

So the csc info is complicated, I'm no expert on it. But it does look like the OYN indicates it's a multi csc rom. It does have XAA as a part of the code, and that indicates it's 'open' for that specific part. But all the others are VZW. So it's running a vzw rom, obviously.
Your sim US Mobile uses both verizon and t-mobile networks. So it working for calls and texts makes sense, as a vzw phone. You could use patched Odin and flash a different (open) rom, but first you should verify that the device really is unlocked from vzw.
Best way to do that would probably be to insert another carriers sim card and see if it can make calls / texts. If not, it's not unlocked. But are you saying everything works now except mobile data? IOW, no internet access?
I had an international sim card at hand and I put it in. Interestingly the APN settings are no longer blocked. But, I do get a notification from setup wizard saying the inserted sim is not from Verizon and some services may not be available. But, messaging still seemed to work and I was also receiving 4G.

Oh then yer okay. That message from verizon can be gotten rid of a couple of ways; 1) use adb commands to disable the specific packages 2) use patched Odin and flash a different rom
VZW is the only rom I think that does that, and it's very annoying. I don't remember exactly which packages have to be disabled, but search google and use xda and vzw in keywords and u should find it.
The 2nd option would be my choice. It would do away with vzw crap and with an open rom you may find volte and vowifi will work also.
cheers
Thank you so much for your reply. That sounds great! To just give it a try, I tried putting in a TMobile sim and phone restarted to install software for TMobile. After that the APN settings were unlocked and now I am also able to connect to the internet using my US Moblile sim. The only problem is the the network mode is greyed out.
This rom I think only recognizes network from major telecom providers. So, just flashing with an unlocked rom would just help to unlock all the features and also remove telecom specific crap. I will try to flash it today.
Thank you again!
I also just flashed the stock firmware which is fully unlocked. And there is no bloatware from telecom OEM's. I am now able to use the network and set the APN's, but the Network Mode is still greyed out. Is it possible to know why? I am guessing that if the phone is fully unlocked, I should be able to change the Network Mode. Is there any other info that I can give you to help understand what is happening? I do not see vowifi as well.
