mate20x hong kong version tethering problem - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

my mate20x from hk, should be same as grobal version as it came with google services.
the new problem i found was when i share wifi to others my phone will go offline and cannot connect to internet.
i found out it was an old problem for many huawei phones.

I have the exact same issue with the 3uk sim. Hot-spot works with ee sim correctly but not with 3uk sim. I was on the phone to 3uk today, changed apn settings but nothing happened. I bloody did a hard reset but that still didn't rectify the issue. Threes technical support said they will call me in few hours to see if they can find any solution. I have the global version from wonda.

I found the solution from previous Huawei forums. Add a new apn and where it says apn type paste this default,mms,supl,ia,dun,entitle
Magically that solves the issue.

I have attached the picture, just change the apn type in your new apn. If the phone doesn't let you save the setting after editing then just press back button. And select the edited apn. Then put your Hot-spot on.

Thanks but..
I too have the global version from wonda. And i'm with 3(uk)
Imagine my disappointment when your fix didn't work. :crying:
I get a "your carrier does not allow you to add dun APN's" message and the new apn is not there when i use the back key.
I'm on unlimited data and 30Gb tether.

Mine works without any issues now after adding the new apn. I almost use it every day for work purpose. Try this may be, reset the network settings. Then try to add the new apn. Make sure in the apn type don't leave any space between the commas. Press the back key and see what happens.

My oneplus 5 could and still can tether.
I have tethering on my contract.
Unlimited data on device, 30Gb of which is tetherable.
I heard they removed the tether cap, but i've never been anywhere near 30Gig so i don't care.

thks. that worked!

I got this too, seemed there as the default APN and then one for tethering, removing the 'dun' from the hotspot APN and saving made it work for me - now hotspot and phone data are working.

[Q] TMobile says: consider rebooting

I just got a notification from my Tmobile (US) My Account app that I hadn't rebooted in a week and should consider rebooting if I was having any issues.
WTF?
I remember when I had my g1 I had some problem with 3g because my SIM card went bad. The vs rep suggested I reboot my phone at least one a week to "clear up" any issues I might be having.
This was back when I would reboot my phone almost daily to try new mods and stuff for my phone.
Rebooting seems the cure for all tech device issues. I was just surprised to get a message like this from TMO

It's just the My T-Mobile application acting like a nanny. Personally, I don't recommend using this app at all, but that's just my opinion.
It's the T-Mobile "My Account"/"My Device" application. Go into the Account app, go to system messages or whatever, and turn them off.
I've also uninstalled the My Account app since then, as the mobile interface for checking minutes/usage is really really good. Just added a bookmark shortcut to my homescreen instead:

check out their mobile website, its just as good as the app if not better. i stopped using the app a while back.
I don't have a data plan on the phone. The app is useful for changing my plan from pay as you go by the minute to something with data for when I need it.
I hadn't realized the app had alerts. They're off now.

Why would you ever want a superphone like the GNex w/o a data plan? Especially when prepaid plans are so cheap?

I almost always have wifi when near home. If I'm not near wifi and I need data, I turn on TMO's data for a day plan using the app.
I use prepaid data when traveling.

Have you enabled international data roaming? Settings-more-mobile networks. It might be a good place to start.

GPRS SERVICE : Disconnected
what does it mean ??
It may not mean anything because you have wifi on. I show the same thing when wifi is on. When you turn it off does it still show disconnected?
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
Its the same if i turn off the wifi and turn on data and roaming , it cannot connect to data network
Its a region restriction on ics 4 and there must be a hack method or mod to overcome it , like wifi fix manager that change the region code to enable wifi.

There are no region restrictions in Android. You just need to fix your APN.

best app to mask wifi tethering

I am an att n3 gu,y but just bought a rooted 900t for a friend on jb4.3.
this is the end of 2014, whats the best app at this time to mask wifi tethering (I don/t mind paying/donating)
anyone tether their unlimited tmo plans?
I have to turn this phone over in an hour and would really like a suggestion or two :good:
I'm on effortless rom and there's unlimited tethering built into the rom. You can also use an app called FoxFi ($7). I also use a VPN called private internet access to hide my tethering just in case.

OK, I downloaded pda+ (w/foxfi)
rebooted, and turned it on.
it must be connecting through the T-Mobile hotspot cause it is still metering data, (so I went back to playstore for a refund).
no one on the internet can even find tmobile hotspot to freeze it w/titanium backup.
My N3 (which is an unlocked 900a) is unlocked and I tether all day though a separate app, (no tmobile hot spot app on my 900a)
The phone im talking about in this thread is a 900t and I need to freeze/uninstall it, (but no one can find it).
The tmobile hotspot is just a meter to let them know how much data is being used, (I need to get rid of it/freeze it, turn it off some how so I can use a 3rd party app
If it's rooted just install Wifi Tether Router.

You need to create an alternative APN and select it before you enable foxfi. The name and apn is all you need to fill out. Leave everything blank. This is mine below.

Messenger and Whatsapp calls not working ONLY on mobile data

Hey guys.. a bit of na issue here.
I was abroad and had my roaming on (NO DATA only calls and SMS)
When I returned back home and turned on my data my Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp calls are not working on Mobile data. They work just fine on Wi-FI but not on data.
My APN is configured as it should be (checked that with my provider).
Any thoughts, advice?

good point. I have hangouts since I have gmail anyway.
i'm sure you've checked you have remaining transfer.
1. i'd turn on mobile data, turn the phone off, reinsert sim, turn on.
2. if not - reset network settings.
3. if not - https://www.maketecheasier.com/fix-cellular-data-not-working-on-android/
i'd try 1, 3, 2.
Transfer (balance) checked.
Reinserted SIM. SInce it's dual sim I tried the second one. The second one is working (it's a different provider). Tried swapping cards and the issue follows card.
Reset network settings to no avail.
Tried changing APN to no avail.
Carrier keeps telling me they can't do anything. I'm thinking of doing a factory reset but I don't want to brick my phone.
Anything else I could try?
Check your settings according to mine which work fine.

Question Can't switch 5G off since updating to Android 13?

Has anyone else has this option greyed out?
I have the option to choose between 5G,4G,3G,or 2G (Settings > Network & Internet > SIMs > Preferred Network Type).
Yep they've greyed it out even though my phone was bought simfree (unlocked)

If you scroll down a bit further, don't you have a Preferred Network setting?
Nope just a 'Choose Network' which is also greyed out
I'm at a loss, hopefully, someone else will chime in.
FWIW, mine is a US Model, puchcased from T-Mobile, SIM unlocked (using a T-Mobile SIM Card).

You could always just use the dialer code *#*#4636#*#*
Turns out certain networks have the option disabled, I had the same problem when using an ID Mobile sim but my Vodafone sim was fine. To fix the problem make sure your rooted as I don't know of any other way other than the one I'm going to show.
Use a file manage that can show you root files (I use MiXplorer)
Go to /data/user_de/0/com.android.phone/files
Look for a XML file that starts with "carrier", If you have more than one then you've used more than 1 SIM in the phone, Make sure you've opened the XML file for your SIM.
Look for the line "hide_preferred_network_type_bool" and change it from true to false.
Reboot.
Profit.
Hope it works for you.

I'm with Smarty (owned by Three) which also uses the Three network like idmobile so it looks like Three maybe the culĀ·prit
I'm on I'd mobile which uses threes network.
Type this *#*#4636#*#* in dialer, it enters a test mode.
Click on phone info which takes you to another screen.
Scroll down and you'll see a slightly gray box that if you click on that and scroll through you'll find LTE only.
Click it and that's it, 4g network only.
Restart phone, job done.
Pretty sure my battery also seems to last longer
