If you MMS does not work, I have found the solution.
It needs to be rooted with a custom rom, I tried factory unlocking it first, which did not solve the issue.
Just a heads up, thanks to the members of Skydragon and the root folks.

Or you could just add the correct APN in the network settings.

It will if you delete all of the other APNs. I had the same problem with this phone and my new Nexus 6.

It didn't let me initially, what is weird is it's using the straight AT&T apn, fully functional, but if I use the cricket one, it doesn't work, running the Skydragon too

The APN type field on the default doesn't include fota or mms -- the AT&T one has it in there- make sure you add mms,fota to the list.

Hey, people!
I have an unlocked SGH-i747 I got last week. Today I tried to enable USB tethering, but I got the message "Mobile data is not available or invalid SIM"; same thing happens if I try to enable Portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
¿Any solution to this? I know I will probably have to root the phone, that's no problem.
Thanks!
Bone stock? You got to pay for it stock. Flash a custom ROM, it should work.

Yeah; I didn't know AT&T does that for tethering. I just flashed a modified stock ROM with the tether fix and that worked out pretty well.
Thanks!

I have same problem.. Please help me to do this
I have AT&T device, rooted and unlocked on another provider; also build-in tether does not work.
But it is working over 3rd party free (donate) application "Wifi tether" for rooted devices.
EDIT:
I double checked now, and it does not transmit any data over "Wifi tether" application. Sorry, it does not work....

Okay, so the question I have for OP is -- do you have network data turned on?
"Mobile data is not available" << means that data is turned off. Turn data on, then try to enable hot spot, then that should work.
http://www.marksatterfield.com
Mark, are you serious?? Of course I have network data turned on! Why would one try to share a disabled connection?
And always remember to read the whole message: "Mobile data is not available OR invalid SIM."
Have you guys tried pdanet? I've used it on stock and haven't had an issue with it.

I have the same issue, get the no mobile data or invalid sim with the built in feature. Tried different 3rd party apps and I get the same message with those. Tried the tether unlocker and that didn't work either. Even did the tethering provision file replacement and it still does the same thing. Contacted Rogers and I have tethering feature. My phone is a AT&T GS4 unlocked.

Please be careful in flashing... thanks for enewman17 ive successfully enable my wifi tether..
I have successfully enable wifi tethering in AT&T SGH-I747 by flashing modified framework-res.apk. It is for Android 4.4.2
I flashed my Samsung Galaxy S3 AT&T SGH-I747 and Wifi Tethering is working fine.
This is for AT&T SGH-I747 with Android 4.4.2 and with Baseband Version i747UCUFNJ1.
Download it. Once download you need to flash using any custom recovery.
Though it is not required but it is always advised to take complete backup of the device. Also, you need to try at your own risk. If you brick the phone, I won't be responsible. I flashed my phone and everything looks good.
Feel free to donate if it help.

I have a Samsung I747 with 4.4.2 not rooted, what version of PDANet are you using, I can get mine working?
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a Virgin Mobile Canada (Bell) Galaxy S3, and I flashed a ROM and it killed my IEMI (It became 0, and I had not done a backup...), and so I had to manually restore it with the NV Restore tool. The IMEI now shows correctly under 'about' on my setting screen,but I can't connect to my cellular network at all. It just doesn't detect the network. The *only* network that gets found is 'EXT', which does not work, instead of the Virgin Mobile network. Now, I restored to stock via Odin, and compared my roommates phone to mine. He has the eact same phone and carrier as I do - and our baseband, versions, etc, are identical, and his works fine. Mine does not. I also double checked, and my IEMI I manually entered matches the one under the battery and on the box, so I didn't mess up re-entering it. I just can't connect at all.
I'm at a total loss. Anyone have any possible suggestions?
Did you check the apn settings?

I have been using t-mobile phones on simple mobile for a while now. But I'm having trouble with the m8. I installed a custom ROM so that I could edit the APN, but every time I saved the simple mobile APN the phone would switch the default back to t-mobile. Happened multiple times. Anyone got any insight into what might be wrong?

Im on a stock T-Mobile HTC One and if you dont want to use the stock APN simply create a new one.
I did that because i dont want to use IPv6. I have data connectivity issues with it.
Flash back to stock ROM then do your WiFi testing.
Right now its flawed because your using modified software and if the wifi stack is not properly dont you will run into problems.
Hello. I've tried to insert new APN for, let's say, T-mobile network. When I've filled in everything and tried to save, it is not giving me no error message but neither saving it. Why is that and how can I do it?
I'm on a stock rom 4.4 rooted.
Thank you

To expand on pbedard's reply, our phone's can be unlocked to work on international GSM networks but not here in the US. Our phone's are locked to sprint and at this point in time there's no solution. Sigh...
My usb port on my phone needs to be replaced. I am unable to root with framaroot- no exploit that works. Towel root will not install. Is there any other way to root without connecting to a pc?
No I don't think so. What do you mean towelroot will not install? Can you be more specific?

I am attempting to Edit to APN via Settings> More Networks>mobile networks>Access Point Names.
The one that has been there is greyed out and I cannot edit it. I added a new one with the correct data but the system seems to default to the old one automatically.

Well root isn't going to magically fix things like this. You're gonna have to do more than that. I think you may need to edit the apns-conf.xml file in system/etc
I need to educate myself. I downloaded an apn app, but it won't run.
Thank you for helping.
