Eclair2CLIQ Alpha2 - Data problems

[robrob119]

For those of you having data issues I think ive found what our problem is.

Customization | Android Open Source

I'm probably wrong, but It might be something to do with APN's.

I tried entering details for the one I should use [Orange UK] and it won't show up after reboot or even save the data.

To the devs: How would I put this .xml file into the rom to make my phone see it?

I tried this, and nothing shows up under APNs, and I can't add a new APN entry either.

Is it only Dext users that are having troubles with Data? Becauase I am in Wisconsin, USA, with spotty 3g coverage, and I had trouble getting the data connection working untill i followed these steps:

1)Turn on airplane mode with phone on homescreen
2)wait 3 seconds and turn off airplane mode
3)run a gscript (or alternatively you can run the commands manually)
4)repete steos 1-3 if data still isnt working

I also found that the occasional reboot helped me obtain data connection, as well as stepping outside into the open air. also make sure you have data roaming on (wireless & networks -> Mobile Networks -> Data Roaming)

Is this what the issue is? or is it the APN list, cant you just manually add APN's?

My APN list is empty. I cannot add new entries: I'm able to enter the options, I click "save", and the APN list remains blank.

I pushed the apns-conf.xml from another post and there's no change.

I'm using a CLIQ, not a dext.

Alright so its an APN problem. My only suggestion to you is to wipe your data/restore factory settings, then wipe your delvik, then reflash the ROM.

Done this two or three times.

Imma try re-downloading the rom and re-wiping/flashing/installing

[theglock]

Hmm thats very strange, can you go back to other roms and have it load the APN correctly? Like Handler's 1.6 alpha 7

Yep.

works fine with k7bsqi and handler's alpha 7.

Works NOT fine with Eclair2cliq.

I'm wondering if it's related to the SIM card, doesn't it do some sort of auto-detect?

Ive been looking around the internet to try and figure this out but i haven't found anything yet. It very well could be related to the SIM card, which would explain why this effects both Cliq and Dext users

so i flashed to this last night (again) and thought "let me let it sit over night and then try all night and try in the morning, maybe that will work" and i tried every way known to M3 and still I've got nothing :-(

but I wanted to ask ... in the dhcp folder in the data folder is it supposed to be empty?

[gamangreen]

OK, i have figured out that the no data problem is somehow related to the sim card. I pulled my working T-Mobile sim card and replaced it with an un-activated T-Mobile sim card. After doing this and rebooting the phone, I went to settings:wireless controls:mobile networks:select network, the phone said searching, then T-Mobile and ATT popped up. I chose T-Mobile, then backed out to the mobile networks. I then chose APN, and lo and behold their was epc.t-mobile.com. Since the sim card was not activated I could not check to see if the data worked, but when my regular sim is in I do not get any apns, so this has to be it. Anyone have any idea what this means? Also, is this just a T-Mobile user problem, or are there people with other providers having the same problem?

[NiNiaKa99]

well i just changed out my sim like a couple months ago they said i needed to upgrade it :-/ could that be why?
