My employer provides me with cell service and to date hasn't cared if I use the Blackberry they provide or put the AT&T SIM in a personal phone. Provided I don't hassle the phone support staff with problems I created, of course. I've used the same SIM in 3 different phones over the past year and haven't had a single issue. I just got a used Atrix HD and discovered that it uses a micro-SIM instead of a regular size. I used a template and cut it down to size (and I think I did it correctly). I put it in the AHD and the SIM is recognized as AT&T but I cannot get data service. On first use with the bone stock ROM, I got a text message and was able to reply to it. Because I have no intention of staying stock, over the past two hours I've done the following:
Rooted
Unlocked bootloader
Installed the ATT-US_BuildA ROM
Wiped that and installed CM10.1 nightly from 05/16
I've not been able to get any data service and now the status is 'In service' for Service state, 'Disconnected' for Mobile network state, and 'Unknown' for Phone Number. Even after cutting down the SIM, I can put it back in my Blackberry and voice and data work just fine. Thus I know the SIM is healthy. Questions:
Is the mini-card slot in the AHD that finicky that a mm difference in card size will dork it up?
The SIM is several years old now. Is it obsolete for the AHD (not withstanding size)?
Are there any settings in the phone that I'm overlooking? The eBay seller was in the US but I do not know the original location of the phone.
Thanks for any advice you can provide. Unfortunately, I can't take it to an AT&T store because the account is my employer's. And my employer really doesn't want to deal with my issue that only exists because they were nice and turned a blind eye to me.
maybe you need to change your APN settings go to settings and under wireless and networks select "more...."
then mobile networks and then access point names select the menu option in the top right and select "New APN" and enter the info below

While traveling overseas in Malaysia I bought a pay-as-you-go SIM card and got phone and 3G service for a week. Worked great!
Now that I'm back in the states I have no 3G service with AT&T.
What do I have to do to get my phone back to 3G service? I can call and text just fine. Wifi is fine too.
I've looked for a FAQ please point me to one if it exists.
I'm running Cognition 3.02. Probably more info is needed. If so please let me know.
Thanks,
Gary

I just flashed Overcome 3.1 on the my ATT Galaxy Tab 7. The rom is super smooth. Everything appeared to go flawlessly however once completed I was unable to establish a proper data connection.
Its shows 4 bars and says connected to ATT as the "Network" under the Status menu. However the "Mobile Network State" is listed as disconnected.
If I go into the Mobile Network Settings. Under Network Operators ATT is listed under Auto Connect and if I rescan it accepts the choice and then says Registered on Network.
I cannot browse the internet. I called ATT and they were able to send me a SMS so there is some sort of connection. We could not troubleshoot any further as there systems are down.
I did a vanilla Overcome Install. Is there a post install step that I need to do? I seem to remember a similar issue with my Dell Streak that involved modifying my APN settings. Here are the APN settings for the device. (these are the Overcome defaults i believe)

I read this on this forum somewhere, and has always worked for me when reflashing. This is ONLY for the Pay as You Go data service to my knowledge. Your mileage may vary.
I changed my APN to the following EXACTLY:

MMSC: not set (delete whats in here)

I always get a connection this way. No MMS, but I don't use it anyway, that's what my phone is for.
The "broadband" apn is only for the sim card that came with a stock at&t tab, and not for the sim cards we all took from other phones.
For the former phone sim cards, wap.cingular or isp.cingular apn's.
The setting should be to "auto".
You didn't mention your modem - baseband.

Baseband: I9000UGJK3
Modem: I am not sure how to verify this on the device (Im an n00b). I did follow the wonderful guide on Team Overcome and it recommended using "JK3 Modem" During the install. I would assume this is what I am using. How can I verify this?
PS. I wapped in my phone SIM card and everything works just fine. I can even make phone calls!

This did the trick! I used these settings with the replacement SIM card they gave me at the ATT store...
Good job. The baseband is the modem, so you are using JK3 - that's the best choice for you.
Downloading the AT&T Widget seemed to of helped: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898688
So, my work lets me swap around phones...so they got me the iPhone 4 a while ago...I was on Android before that, thought I'd give iOS a spin...anyhoo, I wanted to go back to my Vivid but I didn't want to have to keep bugging my cellphone lady at work to keep changing the SIMs around (micro to regular or whatnot). So I wanted to see if I could make a little adapter (easy enough...tons of videos and whatnot online) and then see if I could get the Vivid to act normal with the data.
Put the SIM in and phone part worked fine but of course no data. So I started hunting down various APN settings...trying this and that...at one point I had notifications working..but browsers and other apps still couldn't use data. Finally, I just starting toying around and found settings that let me have data! Figured I would post them in case anyone else is in a similar situation.

There you have it. "Authentication type" was the kicker it seemed...none of the sites I found (even here) mentioned it...so i just always left it to "None"...but then decided to change it and that seemed to do the trick.
Hope this helps someone.
Just came from the rezound, upgraded to HTC one. The phone is only a week old, all stock, the data doesn't seem to be working right. Always getting connection timeout or just sits there, arrows on top don't even light up. I've gone thru 4 gigs in less than a week and I haven't done anything. Everything is unsynced and background data is restricted. Called Verizon and got some girl who wouldn't do anything but have me take out the SIM card. Any fix or any suggestions? I can also still return the phone, I'm still under the 14 day trial.

check your apn settings:

check that your apn is correctly configured for verizon

You could try installing something like 3g watchdog, or my data manager. It will tell you which apps are downloading/uploading, and how much they have used aswel.

I'm guessing it's not right. Stock 4.4.2 - 3.11.605.1
**Reset Network Settings leaves the APS Settings blank**
I have an SM-N960U (factory unlocked) running Android 10. I am using a Red Pocket CDMA-V sim card. At first, the phone wouldn't register Verizon. It was stuck in T-Mobile. Replaced the Sim card and it registered to Verizon, but still no MMS. Everything works - Voice, SMS, Internet/Data - Just won't send or receive MMS. Red Pocket keeps re-provisioning/registering my device and sim, and still no MMS.
Every time I add a new APN Setting, I lose voice, data,and sms. (I've never gotten MMS working)
Red Pocket says that even though the phone is factory unlocked, it may not be a "Verizon Registered Device." Huh?? I touched bases with Verizon, but they had never heard of such a thing. Anyway, I'm stuck with this phone while my other Note gets a new screen installed, and I need MMS for work.
Here are the two APN Settings we've tried. The first one, I found on my own. The second one, came directly from red Pocket Customer Service. Neither worked for MMS.
1) I found this one online. No MMS.
