Get rid of operator "Get More..." on T-Mobile USA

I'm running the new "HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship" and my operator comes up as "Get More..." Which is pretty lame. Anyone figured out a way to change this? My digging through the registry turned up nil.
Help?

Chances are, no. It's a feature of the SIM card to be able to hold custom names that the operator wants to display. It's called EONS (Enhanced Operator Name Service, I believe). There's no way that I know of to tell WM to ignore it.

Well shoot, now i'm stumped. On the t-mob ship roms it came up fine. The HTC rom says Get More..., strange. I also have a t-mob wing (herald) and the touch-it rom said the same thing (Get More...).
This seems to be something common with roms designed for markets other than north america. Thanx for the input.

I know how. Let me look for the instructions. It works fine on my dash. just give me a few.

good luck. Worked for me. Might have to play around with it to get it to work. You don't have to reboot the whole phone to show the new network name. just go into the communications manager and hit 1 (or turn off phone) then re-enable it)

It works but switches back whenever u soft reset. I don't see the big deal to be honest.

not a big deal because it is not happening with you.
i was wondering if we can somehow edit the operator's name into something else. like.. "blah is blah"

Click the link in the 4th post. It explains how to change the operators name.

unlocked T-mobile - to - AT&T HELP PLEASE!

I bought an unlocked HTC touch pro 2 that was with T-mobile.
I have AT&T. My phone works good for calls and text messaging but the data plan does not work.
I called AT&T and they cant help me.
I called HTC..can't help me.
They both said to call T-Mobile and ask them to reset the data options because my phone is trying to read off of the T-mobile options but what that amounts to is that they just don't know what they are talking about.
My friend said this site will have the answer!
Can anyone..please..point me in the right direction on how to set up my phone so I can use the data plan for AT&T or am I screwed??
I am new at this so I don't understand the lingo but..do I need to flash a rom on my phone to kind of wipe it clean of T-Mobile and start fresh or what??
Please help me!!

Ok...I have done some digging on this site and I just wanna be clear. It looks like my phone wont work with the 3g network...and I'm ok with that...but my phone has NO internet at all and thats what I'm trying to fix.It also looks like I can fix my problem...just need a push in the right direction..please??

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1277773

If you flash a new ROM, they all come with a little program that runs in the begining to provision the phone with this info... Might be easier....

ok..thanks alot..i have the internet now.
one problem..those instructions don't help me with sending or recieving picture messages. I can't follow them to get me to where it fixes that for an htc touch pro 2...any ideas?

Are you looking in the registry at your arcsoft settings?

My understanding is that the T-Mobile phone has different hardware modem. It will not work with the AT & T 3G network. Sorry, there is no way I know of to fix this. The two carriers use different technology for 3G.
However, it should work with the EDGE network on AT&T. You will need tech support from AT&T - ask them what settings need to be entered in the connection manager to get the device to work with EDGE. Your phone has settings for "T-Mobile Data" in the Comm Manager. You need to delete that and enter the AT&T settings.
Also, VERY IMPORTANT, you need to go to the phone screen (where you dial calls), bring up the options, and set it to operate ONLY on 2G networks. Otherwise I think the T-Mobile 3G modem may interfere with your EDGE data.
BTW, have you asked T-Mobile about getting a Tilt 2? This is the same phone. You could resell your unlocked T-Mobile TP2 on ebay and recoup a lot of the costs. This would be the best option, since you could then get 3G coverage.

I would like to do this then...any suggestions on which rom i should use and how to do it..i appreciate all the help

all custom roms should have a provision cab or program. You will need to unlock your phone first. Look in the rom dev section

[Q] T-989 - No data network. Mobile Network State: Disconnected

Hi there. I own an unlocked, rooted t 989 Samsung Galaxy SII which I bought in the US. I recently moved to the Netherlands, and got a new simcard with Vodafone. The problem: I can't get my data to work.
I have tried (almost) everything, so prepare for a read. Here's the list:
- Sim card is fine, I tried it in a old phone and 3G pops up instantly
- Rebooted, pulled battery, turned mobile connections on/off, handpicked network, etc, etc, all the basics.
- Got the APN settings from Vodafone. Tried them manually, resetted them, automatically, turned it on, turned it off.
- Going online through Wifi works.
- Under settings-Status it reads under Mobile Network State: Disconnected. But I know that the phone detects the network correctly. It can distinguish between UMTS and GPRS here.
- So there seems to be no trouble with the phone being incompatible with the network. I read online that other people had NO trouble using their T989 in Europe.
- I tried inserting my old American pre paid T mobile sim card and turn roaming on. No luck.
- A lot of other people with the same problem tried to link it to Easy Battery Saver. I tried updating, uninstalling and going into its settings to find out what it could be, but nothing.
The last thing I can still try is to factory reset, unroot and try to get the phone to its most original state and see what it does. But before I triple wipe all my contacts, pictures, apps, etc, I want to make sure I did absolutely everything to try and fix this beforehand. Being a noob here, I can't post any links but I trust you I tried.
The people at Vodafone are of no help whatsoever. I hope you geniuses could help me any further.
[Edit] And sorry for posting this in General Chat. If a mod could move my question to Q&A I'd be most thankful..!

I am having the exact same damn problem! it started with being unable to send a simple text message yet having data. now it says it is searching forever

Try flashing a different radio/modem then an american one?

@decko5 Nice to see I'm not the only one, but that doesn't help us yet .
@doug36 Besides the fact that I'm running a stock ROM that should be compatible with no issues, I'm not sure how I'd do that. I can flash a separate part of the kernel? That sounds like a very tricky thing to do.

It's actually pretty easy. You can flash most radios via ClockworkMod Recovery. I couldn't find any threads with a list of Galaxy S-II radios here on XDA, but I found one over at RootzWiki for you. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/2725-radio-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-radios-updatezip-updated-20-aug-2011/
Just find the corresponding one to your geographical location and carrier (Google is your friend) and follow the steps.
Good luck and hope it helps!
(p.s. you should definitely look to see which radio you currently have so that you can download a backup of it before you go flashing radios.)

Thanks for that very helpful post! I've raped and butchered Google, but I'm still having trouble finding out which modem I should download. There seem to be so many and the post on RootzWiki gives no guidance to which is which. Any wisdom on this? I'm in the Netherlands, so Western Europe, on a Vodafone network.
By the way. I fully wiped my phone and installed Team Kang's Juggernaut 5.. No luck, same problem. What I found really, really weird is that it was instantly in Dutch. (Which is ok, I speak Dutch) But I don't remember ever selecting a language. How does it know? Besides, I'd rather have it in English .
What I did find out is that I'm still using a old firmware, UVKID, instead of UVKL1. So I'm restoring back to my previous ROM and trying to update. I'll see what happens. If that doesn't work, I'm going to restore my phone to stockest of the unrooted stocks and try and update.
If that doesn't work, I'll have no option but to send the phone to T-mobile.
I'll try the modem update as soon as I understand what I'm doing . But it does sound promising. Thank you so much for your help, it's greatly appreciated!

Hi guys,
I've updated my firmware to UVKL1, still no luck. Anybody who can tell me which radio I should try on this Vodafone network in the Netherlands?

I am from India and had faced this similer issue with many of my android phones specially with captivate and infuse.......Here what i always did to connect data network.
Just uncheck the use packet data network box in mobile network settings and try to move out from that area (say u are in ur office and going back home) and check the data in settings.
This thing has worked for me always, I don't knw if its related to the OS or to the network provider but this has helped.
Have u tried any other network sim card on ur phone ?

An update for other people that might be looking for a solution in the future. It turns out to be a clear Vodafone problem. I tried a different simcard from a different network (both T-mobile Netherlands and KPN), and they instantly worked without any trouble.
I went back to a different Vodafone store in Amsterdam, and they were much more helpful than the first one. The sales guy told me he had seen the same problem with AT&T iPhones on the Vodafone network.
I called Vodafone, and they have been very nice to me. But they haven't found a solution yet and are looking into it. They see me registering to the network, granting me access, but still my data doesn't work. They've also told me that they will let me cancel my contract for no cost if they don't find a solution.
So problem remains unsolved, but at least there's some light at the end of the tunnel. I was close to buying a new 500 dollar phone... Americans going to Europe: Beware with getting a Vodafone simcard. Sorry to the Vodafone guys, but as for now, that's the status.

So to give closure to this issue (I always hate it when people fix their problem without telling the interwebs..)
IT WORKS!
After an initial terrible experience at the Vodafone counter, the headquarter tech guys have really been great to me. So it is indeed a Vodafone problem. American phones always give them a headache. They don't know what causes the problem exactly, but they do have a fix. It turns out that when logging on to the data network, American phones (AT&T iPhones, my T989 SGsII, and some other Android devices) sent some gibberish along that make the Vodafone server go cuckoo.
The solution was, miraculously, to sign me up (for free!) to the WiFi hotspot service that Vodafone provides, and then logging on to a different APN, being: office.vodafone.nl in my case.
Hope this helps anyone who's having similar issues.

ok the issue here is that some of the t989 are vodafone and some are USA network , now the other solution is that you flash with command prompt which there is a link to that tool im going to upload from the link i got it from . its also a clockrecoverymod , but this 1 asks you for deleting data user on the device and also resets the network includes USA/overseas though if your not customed roms
or any hacked roms , after flashing this device your basically removing any unwanted apps and cache that are hidden during network searching will be fixed bugs , put the simcard in slot but make sure that is a 3G/4G accounts, than its going to reboot the device automatically , it should be searching for service and also will be a circle with a slash on it where the service bar usually is , just wait about 1/2 hour to an hour maximum time let it do its thing , ok whats happening now to the phone is that is thinking with android network with usa and overseas market apps comparing both carriers network also gets the proper address for the custom rom or original kernel, froyo either 1 will get the correct network address and / VPN / and also will be adding both T-mobile/AT&T choose T-mobile dont go for AT&T cause it will research network configuration plus the phone its not unlocked for both its just a network passby to get correct WPN/VPN/clockworkrecoverymod .

Where is an fix?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

@#11 That reads like gibberish to me
@#12 I think I posted a fairly extensive report on how I fixed this...?

Pixel XL on Verizon MVNO - April Security patch has disabled my 4G.

I had 4G before this update, but nothing I do, no matter how many different APN settings I try, no dice.
I'll tell you where I've been. Have had the phone at least a year and it came with Nougat.
As soon as I got it, I got a Total Wireless SIM (owned by Tracfone and running on Verizon's network) and activated it with no problems. Had full service. 4g, mms, etc. All was great.
Even when I got the 8.0 notification and I updated to Oreo, all worked fine.
A few months back, I got the 8.1 notification. I allowed it to install and when It booted back up, I had no service at all.
Found this thread, Android 8-1 - How to Edit Cellular APN, and one post in there got me with the phone setup and connected to my computer running ADB commands, which allowed me to at least add an APN.
Adding the standard TRACFONE.VZWENTP apn you can easily find via Google searching fixed the problem. (Had to add mms port of 80 but otherwise, all was perfect)
About a week back I get the 8.1 notification again, which i thought was weird since I was already running 8.1
Turns out it was the April Security Patch for 8.1 (i suppose as that's the only reasoning that makes sense to me right now).
After it installed and did it's thing, I only had 3G service, which around here is prone to many interruptions, aside from the slow speed.
I checked, and it's still using the APN I set up. Nothing has changed on that APN, nor anywhere else I can see.
I even added a new one with the same data, and same thing, 3G.
I've searched the threads here, tried some of the other suggestions but none have worked.
I've even went as far as to get Smail to unlock my bootloader (it's a verizon Pixel XL) and from there I've rooted installed twrp and rooted etc, all in hopes that I could try another method listed in that thread i linked above, using an adb shell with root permissions to view the "default" apn data, thinking maybe something in there is messing it all up.
I had no luck there because even though the phone is rooted now, there was something else I have to do to run an adb shell with root permission and seems the easiest way to get that done is just install a custom rom.
Still, what baffles me is, isn't this what the SIM card is partly for?
And why would software updates disable service, or parts of service?
Seems odd that a software upgrade would effect how the phone uses the service, especially when a custom apn is setup and unchanged.
I have scanned these forums for hours over the past few days and I would really love some direction on what to try next.
Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

Play around in the *#*#4636#*#* dialer menu just don't hit the update button beside the smsc input field

Sometimes, the best thing to do is to go to total wireless and ***** at them till they deal with it. I don't think its something you need to stress over. It's Verizon's and Total Wireless's responsibility to get your 4g LTE back. I just dealt with T-Mobile with the same issue. no 4G but call and texting worked. APN set right but they did something on their side and got me back on track after handing them my phone.(in store)

I would but Total Wireless doesn't have a store front or even a kiosk. They're kinda like Straight Talk, but just for Verizon phones. Verizon naturally won't have anything to do with it since I'm paying their competition to use their network.
I had thought about going through the activation again, but when i put my IMEI # on their website now, it says my phone is not compatible. A year ago it said it was, and it has been until this update.
I've considered flashing 8.0 and see if that lets it work again, but I don't like the thought of not being to update my phone or i'll lose parts of my service.
Thanks for the suggestions yall. Will repost if the dialer code leads me somewhere helpful.

Oh my, can you confirm if your IMEI is the same one as the one as last year?

They are probably getting money hungry and want people to buy phones from them. There is a big chance that hidden menu could solve your problem though. Regarding the imei the only way that could be a problem is if yours was somehow stolen

I think it shows up as an issue because I'm currently using it. I just tried it again and it said "there was an error." When I tried it a few days ago it had said the same, "there was an error, contact customer support"
It's possible that time it showed up as incompatible i had punched a number in wrong.
Can't confirm if it's the same IMEI i had a year ago but it would be weird if that changed.
Couldn't find anything in the hidden menu except when I checked "Carrier Provisioning Info" showed up that it last attempted it yesterday and had failed.

Well as a last ditch .. just a thought here. Pull the sim power on your phone delete the apn. Perform a reboot insert sim and wait. Still nothing? Check apn add if necessary and reboot. Profit?

I did try that after the april update.
With no APN, I get no service, which first happened right after the first 8.1 update. That lead me to adding the APN.
I haven't tried it since I've unlocked the bootloader.
I will try again before flashing back to 8.0.
8.0 was the last time my phone worked just fine with no custom APNs or anything.
I thank y'all for the ideas.
I would like to know if I'm the only one with this specific problem.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue with the 8.1 updates using a Verizon MVNO?

For future reference that provisional menu will be populated with answers other than no. If you have the proper apn etc..

Want me to take a screenshot of the provisional menu? I don't know what I'm looking for in that menu.
As far as APN, it never needed to make one until the first 8.1 update but all worked fine afterwards. It's only since the April update that I have issues.
Will report back after trying to reset without the sim again

If a fresh image+apn doesn't fix it the only other thing that "you” could try would be replacing the Sim. Sometimes the Sim can fry. Could also be as easy as reseating it.

It's fixed
Here's what I had to do.
I did a wipe install (flash all.bat) of an 8.0 Oreo image as it was the last time I had LTE without even having to do anything (like setup a custom APN etc)
After that was successful, I did a no-wipe install of the 8.1 (April 2018) image, and afterwards, and once it was booted, all was well, I have LTE and everything with no custom APNs needed.
Thanks to everyone who offered help in getting me in the right direction.
In addition to what I previously mentioned that I had tried, I also tried:
-I did try a wipe install of 8.1 a few days ago but still with no success. Even with tweaking APN settings.
-I messed around with the carrier provisioning menu and could see I was not getting LTE and when I told the phone LTE only, then no service at all, so I set it back to LTE/CDMA/UMTS (that's what it was already on.)
-Tried dialer code *228 to "activate" my service, but that had no change.
I went back, this morning, to the thread I first looked at after the first 8.1 update I had which disrupted my service completely and ended up with me using an adb shell to do something that allowed me to add APNs and subsequently setup an APN that worked for me until the 8.1 April security update.
Noticed this post:

I have this same issue and the only solution I've found is to full wipe go back to 8.0 activate on Verizon's network (I too use a VZN MVNO) and then flash the full 8.1 package without wipe.

I can't say I understand why that worked when a completely fresh wiped install of 8.1 didn't, but it did so I'll take it.
The next thing I was going to try, if it hadn't worked, was changing the radio band in the provisioning menu as that seemed to work for another person.
Either way, all is well for now. Thanks for all the advice!

The only thing I've come up with is that starting on 8.1 flashing full wipe for VZN users (or perhaps limited to VZN MVNO's) with unlocked bootloaders is not allowing the device to activate on the network. I suspect VZN hanky panky at work but I am generally a skeptic that way. Once you get it the way you want it you can update each month with the full firmware but remove the -w in the flash-all.bat file and you should be good.

My bootloader was still locked when these issues began with the first 8.1 update (which adding an APN fixed), and culminated in 3G only after the 8.1 April update.
I only unlocked it so I could hopefully find a solution, which thankfully was a success.
I'm just as skeptic as you are when it comes to VZN though. They have the best coverage in this area, and that's the only positive thing I have to say about them.

Quick shortcut maker is my friend
Ok, short and sweet and to the point. Until or unless you root this thang. Quick shortcut maker is my friend since the lg g3. Network issues. Use it. No root use it. This is a wonderfull tool. So that being said there is the device info where you can choose network, hint to you is choose unknown. And on the other menus it unlocks choose global. Well it's kinda that easy. But you just gotta fool with it. You knew it was coming when you bought this phone. So buck up and just do it

If your like me you love this stuff. I try to get any phone I can that the networks can't chase. Call it old habits. And I'm gonna say I love this phone and I loved the rm3. I knew when I bought this phone what I started. I also bought it less then red magic sells it for and hot it on April 20 th. It's full on Chinese rom. Ver. 2.46. red magic support says mid May we will finally have a global rom. Liars I say. But get out that quick shortcut maker and shortcut master. And mess with it. Oh it's radio info. My bad. Set the network to unknown. It's the only way I could get data, mms,internet and phone calls every other setting either gave me phone no data, or data no phone. But unknown gave me both and click the 5g on.
