Check your APN,make sure it's correct & that it's actually selected.

No go
Yeah it's the correct apn I double checked settings

Which model & carrier (SIM Card) are you using & what is the latest update revision (build number)?
Perhaps update the OP w/that info & others who may have your phone model & carrier will see this & have a solution.......
Only other thing I can suggest is remove/re-install the SIM Card,see what happens......

Glad to hear everything is working,less the network/signal strength indicator.

Yeah more a aesthetic thing. The first thing I checked was the apn. Then the sim the reset network settings then factory data reset with no luck. I think my next move is to let Samsung know. The few moments I used my phone before update the signal bars did work.

I noticed the usa unlocked ones show less bars but still the true db via Network signal information app. I think the branded ones have software to make customer feel good about the "bars". Lol

[Q] T-Mobile Version Network?

http://imgur.com/a/E7wY0 < Pics lol. So My Phone wasn't showing LTE at the top and it's had a "!" with 5/4 bars showing so I panicked thinking I didn't have LTE (Which I did, I don't know why the Symbol went AWOL) so I went into Networks setting and changed Preferred Network Type into LTE (recommended) about 30mins later I got the LTE Symbol back. So Is there anyway I can change it back to "Global" and not LTE (recommended)? I just wanna make sure I can get 3G/2G when needed even tho I normally get 4G LTE everywhere I live hehe. I have bad OCD lol and this is affecting me badly LMAO
Is global really needed if you're in the states? I have mine set to LTE as well but I get 3g.

dial *#*#4636#*#*, then choose phone info, scroll down then change lte only to either lte/gsm or lte/gsm/cdma.

H --> R --> H?

Hello, new to the Nexus 6. I'm having a little issue. I keep getting an exclamation and an R, then back to H on my Nexus 6. I noticed that I wouldn't get connectivity if I didn't have Roaming enabled. I got it from Amazon Prime, which says it's a local edition of the Nexus 6 (not imported). And right now, for example, I'm on wifi. I see the Wifi symbol and then an R appears. It says I'm on roaming and then no? Hmm...
I've recorded this video of it, would you mind checking it out and letting me know?

Thanks.
Suggests that your service provider may have a weak signal in your area, or possibly they are experiencing technical difficulties (tower going on and off... I've seen this kind of thing happen lots of times). The fact that it switches to 3G/H *ever* means that it actually is compatible with your carrier.

I know it's not the issue. I have a note 4, same service provider. Also my partner has a z ultra and same service provider. No issues either.
I went into the sim toolkit and changed the roaming settings. Now let's see if it fixes the issue because it's driving me nuts. Lol.

I'm using a rom that is close to stock, I've had similar issue before. Try playing with the mobile data settings to see if this solves it. My carrier is Verizon.

N910W8VLU1ANJ3
ive tried nothing and im fresh outta ideas. j/k any help would be amazing!
Do we should assume you checked your toggles and settings? Did you check to make sure the SIM is properly seated? Do you have a different SIM to test? Did you pay your bill? [emoji14]

Did you check this toggle? It might be in a different place on the page because you can move them.

Unless it's the SIM I have no idea. Sorry. Maybe someone else has an idea.

Cannot Connect to LTE. Throttling?

Hi,
Since last Friday I haven't been connecting to LTE. I'm running multirom with the latest BBOYZ Sense ROM and then on secondary a minimal GPE ROM without root that I just use when I want Android Pay. Neither has connected to LTE since Friday. I'll see LTE show up for a second but it won't spin like it's doing anything and eventually will switch back to 3G. I have unlimited data and have never had a problem in the past. This monthly cycle I've used 0.6553GB of 3G data, 1.5186MB Data Roaming, and 13.4001GB LTE. My wife's iPhone 5s still connects to LTE just fine. We have a tower near our home and get a great signal. My wife has used about .25GB. Billing cycle says tomorrow so that might mean it resets tomorrow or tomorrow is the last day, not sure. Anyone have any thoughts? Am I being throttled? Or maybe I just need to give it a full wipe and flash a RUU?
Thanks!
I decided to try a full RUU. Still only getting 3G. I did some reading and saw Sprint (about 2 weeks ago) said they're going to limit high volume users when they get over 23GB but that they'd be notified. I haven't been notified or used that much data. I guess I'll see what tomorrow brings. If I get into Wednesday with no LTE I'll head over to my Sprint store..

Have you tried either ##72786# or ##3282# while using a Sense ROM?

I went into both those menus but wasn't sure what to do. Was about to ask but I disconnected from wifi and now have LTE. Don't see how that helped but maybe it did! Thanks regardless!

XT1060 (Verizon) Moto X in Australia

Hi Guys,
I'm located in Australia and my dad bought a MotoX on eBay. It ended up being a Verizon badged phone.
When we first got it, it was working on 2G/3G fine. I know that the LTE bands won't work in AUS.
The phone played up a little, was lagging and poor battery life. The usual thing.. factory reset!
Well it boot looped.. I managed to get it going again but it didn't find a SIM.
Long story short, i have RSD flashed factory ROMS (Several regions) and now custom ROMS with radios/modems that in theory should work in AUS.
No luck. It runs fine, just no SIM detected.
What can i do to get this phone working again. If anything!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've attached the current System Info and the sticker that's on the back.
BTW.. I have owned Motorola's forever and this device feels (Poor build) counterfeit. Has anyone heard of a counterfeit MotoX?
I have a AUS retail MotoX myself and it is built far better.

You have an XT1060 (see http://www.phonemore.com/phone/motorola-moto-x-xt1060/1120 for the bands) My understanding is that you should ONLY flash XT1060 specific factory ROMS; to start with, and then CM etc.
Get the XT1060 ROM. It will match your hardware. Don't downgrade, only upgrade if anything.

Thanks, I'll give it another shot. But I've tried the XT1060 stock ROMs with no luck so far.
The theory is that after i flash the stock XT1060 ROM i just make sure roaming is on and force set to 2G/3G in cell settings.
As suspected, the device still won't detect the SIM card at all.
All cellular network settings are greyed out except roaming options. I have put roaming on, still nothing.
