Xperia won't connect to 3G

I apologize if this subject has been already raised, I searched the forum but didn't find any info on this subject. I didn't do anything to my phone, like debrand or download some new software update, except for installing GDE but I don't think it's the problem. Phone doesnt seem to connect to 3G anymore, Wifi is ok but not 3G. I don't even see the small arrows on top with 3G icon which usually appear when it's out of Wifi area. MMS & data is checked like it's supposed to be. It was working fine before and just today stopped working. I tried restarting the phone - doesn't help. Any ideas ?
Found the problem. Has to reset APN. Juice defender was intruding. However I decided to keep it.
Unlocked X10 won't connect to 3G
I recently bought an unlocked Xperia X10 from Amazon and used the automatic internet settings to set up the AT&T APNs, but I can't connect to the 3G network.

[Q] Tilapia 3g problem

Hi all,
Been having some problems recently on my wife's Nexus 3g (tilapia). She had it for about six weeks now, I rooted it and installed PA on it (same as my grouper).
Everything was working fine until recently, 3g stopped working for no reason that I have been able to figure out.
What I've tried and noticed so far:
Clean install (full wipe) of PA, and also tried different custom roms - 3g not working
Tried the simcard from my phone to rule out network errors (since I'm on a different network) - still not working
In notification window, 3g coverage bar shows blue when wifi is on, asa it's turned off, a little H appears next to 3g bar, which straight away goes grey and stays that way until wifi is turned back on (this is all in range of wifi network, 3g icon does the same thing if i move far enough to lose wifi access). Strangely enough the carrier (Telstra) shows on my lockscreen, but any attempts to use the connection, like playstore, browser, go sms, all return a no connection error. Also when wifi is off and 3g icon is greyed out, the device sometimes crashes (hardlock) when trying to unlock the lockscreen (maybe unrelated).
Flashed back to stock following these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32075129&postcount=1 - problem still remains
APN settings have been tried on both auto and manual, no luck.
At this stage I'm starting to think this may be a hardware issue with the 3g modem and thinking of just returning the unit altogether.
Has anyone had anything similar happen?
EDIT I've returned it on warranty

[Q] wifi/4g

i know i saw a thread about this but cant seem to find it
my girlfriends phone when wifi is on shows the 4g icon as well ive never seen that on any of our smart phones is this normal for the s4?
That means shes not connected to a Wifi network.
Her Wifi is on , sure, but her data is flowing through 4G. :silly:
I just checked on my s4 4g device now.

[Q] For SM-N9005 unlocked owners using US AT&T network - data stopped working

I had this weird problem where mobile data stopped working on my Note 3. The last time it worked was Saturday evening and when I got home, got on wi-fi. This morning, I left the house and I got just the bars without the usual H+ along with it. Phone status said that the network state was disconnected. However, calls worked fine. I tried to troubleshoot with the ATT rep, tried re-registering my number multiple times to no avail. Then, I went into network mode and switched it to "WCDMA/GSM auto" from the default "LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto", and data works again. Since I always had the phone on "LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto" and I know I didn't do any system updates lately, some recent change in the ATT network was probably not playing nice with that network mode. Has anyone with the int'l Note 3 on the ATT network had this problem?

[Q] Galaxy S5 only connects to 4g

Hi, I'm very new to this site. Sorry if this has been asked before. I have an At&t S5, and it only connects to 4g and only in places where service is REALLY good. Anywhere else I will have bars but no 4g, 3g, etc. and is not connected to at&t. Ive made sure its set to gsm/lte. Any thoughts? ?
has your phone been rooted and have had a custom rom flashed? Sometimes the custom rom could have a different modem which causes these problems, you could flash a SM-G900A modem with odin and it might solve it, or just flash the stock rom which is a little easier but you lose your data
Hi, sorry for the late reply. I've been out of service area for awhile. The phone has been rooted before, but I've been having this problem since before the root.
hmm thats pretty strange, maybe it's only a 4g simcard or your phone isnt finding or there isnt any different type of networks in that area?
It just doesn't make sense that I would have bars but not have any connection to the network.
So youre connected but you cant access it? Send messages or use mobile data? That happened to me multiple times when I had a incompatible modem..
I will have bars but it doesn't say 3g/2g/H/H+/E. The only time I can text/call/etc. unless I have 4g, which is the only one it ever shows. And in places where my friends have 4g, mine shows nothing. Has to be like a big city.

When you have bars but no 4g can you still text and call?

No. It says not registered on network. I've tried all of the "Not Registered on Network" solutions all over the Internet and none of them work...for me anyway.
