I have been wrestling with this issue for some days now. When I connect my Xperia Arc to a Wi-Fi network, absolutely everything works and plays. However, when I am only connected to the mobile 3G network, some apps won’t work. YouTube, Market, Weather, Maps, etc. will just hang there with a blank screen loading. I know the data connection is working when connected to the mobile network because I can use the browser, send and receive emails, sync contacts, etc. I can go to Wikipedia, for instance, and search for any topic I want.
In the particular case of playing videos from YouTube, I have the problem either with the app or if I try to play them directly from the browser on the YouTube site. I can search for the videos, get the thumbnails but it will not play them.
I am running LT15a firmware version 2.3.3. I have flashed back and forth 4 times already between the Rogers branded firmware and the generic north America one. I have tried hard resets (factory) as well. I have played with different settings when defining the APN. I am getting tired of re-entering all the settings over and over trying different things.
My phone is unlocked with a Telus SIM Card.
I will appreciate any help to resolve this.
Cheers,

Hello folks,
I am unable to get a data connection to T-Mobile on my Desire (Unlocked CPW, possibly pre-release firmware edition) and would really appreciate someone with a T-Mobile supplied & branded Desire posting the APN settings that work for them.
My phone is set up by default as follows (there is a second APN configured for Picture Message, which I am yet to try):

Thanks,
Edd.
You can get internet settings automatically by going to T-Mobile's website then "help and support" tab then "software and settings". Type your mobile number in choose desire then click GO!
Thanks for your helpful suggestion, but I have already been there and it tells me the following:
The number you have entered is invalid. Please re-enter.
Great, huh? That's why I'd like to know exactly what settings are going out on their own versions of the phone.
Edd.
Hi Edd, I have pretty much the same settings
under username and password use the following:
username: user
password: pass
I have user/pass working on mine and had these settings working on a Nokia N97 over the past year with the Web n Walk and Mobile Broadband plus booster.
UPDATE: Sorted now.
I just phoned T-Mobile to give them my PAC code (which arrived an hour ago), and it turned out that either they or CPW had not set up my account. By the end of the call, I had a 3G or H icon and everything working fine.
Thanks for your replies.
Edd.
I have been using the phone for a couple of days but I didn't realise until now that my phone doesn't have 3g data connection. I noticed when I am outside home, I can't check my gmail and have any access to internet. I am sure I have always have mobile data turned on.
My phone contract has unlimited data plan on three UK, but I am using it on my unlocked dhd from Orange UK.
Can anyone help?.
Many thanks

Have you put in the correct APN settings for your provider?
Yes, I tried and I see the 3G icon, but I can seem to receive any data. Anyone care to share their apn info on three network see if I got this right.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I wonder if flashing a new radio and firmware will help?
most probably due to your incorrect APN setting value. Try obtain the right APN setting for the telco line you are using.
is it because I am using a different network phone, so the APN setting of my current network isn't implemented by default, because I didn't have this problem with my iphone 4.
Anyone here is on Three UK can lend me a hand with this?
Finally found a combination that worked, there are quite a few variation out there over the internet.
I can verify this one works for the desire hd:

Greetings!
This afternoon I received my AT&T branded S3. A friend signed up for AT&T and wanted to keep his old phone so I purchased the S3 from him.
Upon booting up I am able to connect to the AT&T network, however data services are not working. I noticed that it was connecting to the PTA access point pre-setup on the phone so I tried adding the usual AT&T WAP access point (wap.cingular.com). I have had many "international" phones before so I am accustomed to setting up all of the settings myself. I am stuck here though as I am unable to figure this one out.
I would appreciate any and all help!
Thank you in advance,
Matt
data
i received mine today also. i tried cutting my galaxy s ll sim down and using it. i had not data. so i had to call att and it is a totally different data scheme for the 4g lte. i was on the phone for 45 minutes before all was fixed. i had the old grandfathered unlimited data plan and it was looking bad for a while, but they finally did some checking and over rode the system to modify my current unlimited data plan to work with the new s lll. i have never had a problem with the service i get from att, today was no different, they fixed me up and this phone is sweeeet. so it may be your problem also and have to switch to the new data for the 4g lte.
Solved!
Called AT&T, first level support tried reprovisioning my account (turn off phone, wait 2 minutes, call back), had me setup voicemail and then tried telling me my SIM was not a 4G sim (I cut down my old SIM, by old I mean 3 days old). Eventually got escalated to true tech support, they wanted to reprovision my account again, I let them know we just tried that but I'd be happy to do it again. Lo-and-behold this time it worked!
No change of data plan necessary, I had the 2GB plan from before.
I also had no date, but i just added a new apn and it worked. Try this:

Fedex just dropped my phone!!
Man, this is really super nice looking phone!
I sold my Skyrocket like 2 weeks ago for this. Living with iCrap (iPhone 3GS) for 2 weeks was god awful experience (I gave my iPhone 4 to my wife so..). I'm like in heaven now....
ordered 6/6 premier, blue. bayarea Nocal. It's delivered like 2:15PM.
I hope everyone gets what they want as soon as possible....
Just had a buddy try the wap.cingular settings and it worked.
looking to use my S3 without calling in and changing my phone type. Leaving it at iphone so i can use both with no issues.
Does anybody have the full apn settings? is there a separate one for mms?

You need reprovisioning. PTA is the correct apn And necessary for lte. It will slow down all the way through 4g3g and edge. Mine does.

hi guys,
just got an xperia ion lt28at , 3g is not working on att, added the wap.cingular apn but i do not get a radio button besides it to enable it.
att pta apn is the only one enabled, i am on ics.
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
The PTA apn is the only one you should have in there. Did you get the phone from at&t or where did you get it from?
Sent from my Sony Xperia™ ion
bought it from another xda member, it's the at&t version of ion, just updated to ICS.
just factory reset the phone, went to add a new apn with the defualt one not enabled, and when i added default att hspa settings to new apn, i did see 4g in the notification bar but as soon as i saved the new apn it was gone and I can't enable the newly added apn.

If you factory reset it or flash the stock at&t ics and have an at&t sim in the phone you do not need to input any apn as it will download the settings for you.
Now if you did not have a LTE plan before getting the ion you will need AT&T to change your data plan to an LTE one. This does not cost anything extra and will not change anything other than allow you to use LTE. Even if you won't be using LTE in your area you need the LTE plan.

That looks right. Might be an issue where you need an LTE enabled plan. I know when I had the Lumia 900 I couldn't do data till I got the LTE plan on my account even though I wasnt iin an LTE area.

yeah , it send's pic's but take's awhile , I been planning on going back with a contract plan , so when I do it will more than likely correct that problem , lol , but i got this one to root but when i did the ICS update it locked the phone, So I can't root it . Waiting on a thread to come up so I can root it , this phone has truly been a challange , lol

The LT28at is easy to root. Just use bin4ry's .bat file after manually installing the backup & restore app
Ok Update on my data issue's , I flashed the generic international firmware to my Xperia Ion the Lt28h , and doing so I was able to enter all four APN's from a Motorola Atrix 4G.
Once I entered the APN's it showed my data working and now I am working on non LTE data , all four APN's I used are entered below , thank's guy's for all the help.

Hopefully this is where this post belongs. It's almost the same as AT&T.
I purchased a Note II (SGH-i317 M) locally used. It seems to be having signal issues. Everything seems to be working normally except the radio. The previous owner said he installed CM on it and began to experience issues, and restored to 4.3. I didn't inquire on all the details.
The phone is supposedly originally a Bell (BMC) phone, and has been unlocked. The IMEI appears to be clean to Bell and Swappa.
When I first got it it was occasionally registering as H+ with one bar. But very very week. I read 4.3 has all the carriers in one package, which explains the Rogers and Bell apps installed. I changed the CSC to BMC and now it's only installing the Bell apps. It's also reading my SIM and connecting automatically with "Browser" APN which is like half filled out.
I manually added these APN. I pulled these from here, but they are the same APN I am using in my two other Note 2s.
APN Name: Bell LTE
APN: pda.bell.ca
Proxy: web.wireless.bell.ca
Port: 80
Username: <Not set>
Password: <Not set>
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: mms.bell.ca/mms/wapenc <--- with http in front, can't post URLS
MMSC proxy: web.wireless.bell.ca
MMS port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 610
APN type : <Not set>
It is showing LTE and web browsing usually works, but calls and texting isn't happening. This is occurring at my house, but as I drive around town it will stop working. If I dial *#06# my IMEI shows, and matches the sticker in the back.
So what have I done?
I tried rooting and installing another ROM, I erased the data and such and reinstalled 4.3. I used ODIN to flash 4.3. I have played with APNs. And changed the CSC as mentioned.
Now I am a complete noob, and I want to learn but I need some, or a lot, of help. So I am asking all the Note II gurus on here to help me out.
