Weirdest thing. I make the new APN click save and it disappears ????
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
If I'm not provisioned properly would that be why when I try to add an APN it just disappears?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
Ok I found out what makes it disappears

Any changes I try to make it as to the last two entries

Mobile Virtual Network ........

Causes the APN to disappear when I try to save it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] Da_G:
I have noticed this behavior with past Android phones when attempting to add an APN that is restricted by the carrier (AT&T)

I.e. I am on a 2G phone attempting to add a 3G APN (wap.cingular to phone)

3G phone attempting to add a 4G APN (phone to nxtgenphone)

4G phone attempting to add a 5G APN (nxtgenphone to enhancedphone)

In all cases, behavior was as described. The system appeared to allow the APN but it would disappear upon entry. Note that if you alter the spelling in any way (try to add enhancedphon for example) the system will allow you.

Appears to be a feature check similar to Mobile Hotspot being disallowed without the proper feature codes in the system.

Update the plan to a 5G capable plan / update the IMEI to a 5G capable device and you'll get access to that APN.

Note that with the current iteration of 5G on AT&T (low band only), LTE-A is performing better in most cases...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
So I'm starting to wonder, what was the point buying a 5G phone if we don't have the option to to change from Nextgen phone??

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
Wow...you were spot on. Called At&t and they did not setup device properly and I was on the wrong service plan
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
If you are on At&t you may have to call just as previous poster said. They didn't bother to provision correctly when I activated device nor was I on correct plan.View attachment 5087001
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
UPDATE:

I totally regret having my phone provisioned for 5G...lol. calls are not clear at all..there is a slight crackle that wasn't there before.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
Can you manually change back to the other APN and make it better?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
Once I add the Nextgenphone Apn..like you said I can't change the last 2 options. If I try they do not stick. I can go back to that but have to keep GID and 53fff I think it is. Hopefully it was just the person I was talking to. Going to test more today
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
I called and had to get my account reprovisioned as well. Crazy that I had the S20 for months and my account was never properly 5g provisioned.

So far I noticed no difference in the call quality. I'll keep you updated.

Also attached are my APNs now without even rebooting.

Have you tried to download the "Samsung Band Selection" app from Google Play and set it to "LTE ALL"?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
Sooooo. It was the person I was talking to, it was not my phone at all. Called same person from my Note 10+ and the static clicking was still there. Called my son and there was no clicking called friend back who is on Verizon..clicking was back. Told her to power her phone off take sim out, put back in..she said sim was not seated properly. Verizon shipped her 20 ultra with sim already in device. After she put sim back in and rebooted ..

No more clicking sound
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xfaega:
Will you please post your setting for the attenhanced settings? The person I'm talking to keeps telling me the nextgen settings.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
I sure will. Trust me, At&t has to provision your device. Next-gen isn't even an option in apn settings after its provisioned

---------- Post added at 05:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------

And I forgot to add, you will not be able to add or change apn settings until At&t provisions your device correctly..several of us tried it will not stick. Once they did, I was able to add a vpn.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
Here you go
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xfaega:
My account and my N20U Unlocked is setup for 5G. But when I rebooted my phone it still showed the nextgen setting. I talked to another CR and they told me that I've been provisioned. So did the enhanced setting automatically show up?

---------- Post added at 04:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 AM ----------

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
Mine showed up the minutes they properly provisioned me without even rebooting ..... So something isn't right for you on the ATT side of things
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xfaega:
So I just got off the phone with ATT. Their saying I need to update my phone plan. But I'm on the unlimited enhanced plan that includes 5G. So I'm not sure what's going on. They opened a ticket. So I'll find out in the next couple of days.

Thanks for all your helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] butchieboy:
That is correct. As soon as I updated my plan, before I even got off phone my Apn changed from Nextgenphone to Enhanced phone. Contact At&t elitecare not just the basic number you would call if paying your bill. They were the 1st ones I called that didn't provision correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] kangi26:
And learned this morning that if you're on an older AT&T plan (Like I am) you can't activate 5G. The plan has to be a "new" plan, the Unlimited plan
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] xfaega:
Update. So I was on the unlimited signature enhanced plan and that didn't include 5G. Now I'm on unlimited elite SM plan with 5G. Also as soon as they changed my plan the apn changed to Attenhanced.

Thanks for all your help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] jcrompton:
So my experience has been kind of weird. I got my plan updated and the new APN at the end of last week. Today was the first day that I went to work. my work is actually a more rural area than where I live but it's near southern Ohio. Strangely enough my phone for the first time came up as 5G. It was weird because I had four or five bars but it still seems slow to connect. It was also slow to connect with a phone call. but there was a data download speed increase from my normal 30 to 50 about a 150.

I guess my point is that the other APN is faster but possibly less reliable ???

Another thing that I noticed when I left the area and the phone had to switch from 5G to 4g it seemed like it took forever for the data connection to be completed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] davej948:
IMEI mix-ups?

Hey all - I'm just following up this thread with a thought. I had a similar issue where I couldn't connect to the 5G APN as described in earlier messages. I called and had my phone re-provisioned and it solved the problem instantly. The tech read back my IMEI from her data and it was off by one digit (mine starts 356 and she had 358)...entering the correct IMEI fixed it.

This is the second issue I've worked with two different Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G phones (ATT) - both are IMEI related. This one had me stuck on the wrong APN; another had my gf enrolled in Samsung Device Insights erroneously.

So my question is, has the IMEI format changed or is it possible they are doing manual data entry to update accounts with IMEI information and making errors? I find it peculiar that so many people are having this APN problem, and we have two phones in the same house now with IMEI issues (one with Samsung, one with ATT). Just a thought... I;m wondering why we are having these issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Accessories] digitaljeff:
So I'm kinda a case collector and have been trying to find real wood cases however most are just wood prints on vinyl etc. I stumbled across this company that has great cases made with real wood w/ tpu bumpers at a reasonable price.

https://www.altocollective.com/collections/smartphone-cases

Most are around 40$CAD but go up if you want a custom logo/design burnt into the wood.

They also sell a select few on Etsy and I was able to pick up this one for 31$ CAD with free shipping.

Anyone else find real wood cases that look nice and are not crazy expensive?

Edit: promotional pic, still waiting on delivery of mine for my S20

Hello,

I have a Startrail 7, Mediatek MT6735M. What happened was that the side buttons, volume and power button, ended up coming out, also the flex cable was cut (as you can see in the photo I attached).

Other notes:

-The mobile phone had ADB activated at the time.

-When I connect the phone to the charger, the screen does not turn on to say the battery percentage, however I do not know if before it did come on when plugged...

-The battery works, because i put it in another cell phone and gives a sign of life.

-When I connect the phone to the PC, for a second it appears in the device manager (I'll attach a photo too)

Needed help getting a call, does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello all,

I think I'm getting lost in this massive forum known as xda-developers. I believe this forum to be the most comprehensive data on all PDA phones I can find anywhere online. That being stated, I own an ATT branded 8525 and have flashed it a few times with various different ROMs. So much to read and learn, it's like a whole another world out here... just on ROM flashing.

What am looking for is some direction of what should work best for my situation. I legally own allot of professional ppc software I use for my business and I want to use a very stable rom that will run ultra fast. What are some of the top 10 software's that are very stable yet feature rich. I will be tethering my 8525 with a Vaio when on the road using 3G were available.

Thanks in advance for any direction, I really find this forum a very useful resource.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] veyka:
If you are looking for a very clean, stable rom, cry CRC's 11.2, or 12.8 naked big storage (my personally favs)

If you want a less vanilla look, then PDAcorners RBSN rom might be good for you.

If you plan on on using a lot of heavy software you might want to run with a 8meg page pool as well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ingenuitor:
Thank you for the quick reply, I will look into these Roms. I think I will end up using the Spb Mobile Shell it seems to be a nice clean interface and I have found some amazing themes on this forum that support it.

Thanks again for the info, so many choices, this info will help.
[General Questions and Answers] cannabiscure:
Hey I like to try different phones and always looking for the next best deal and a gadget to mess around with.

Using ebay, and if you had $100 (or less) to spend, what are some of the best phones you can get?

Here's a few smartphones I can think of that are pretty good for about $100.

HTC 10, Google Pixel 2, Blu Vivo XI+, Samsung S7, Moto G7, LG G7 ThinQ (but a nice clean one is $140, hard to find a good one for $100, might have cracks).
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Forget about eBay, Swappa.com is a better medium for buying used devices.
[General Questions and Answers] galaxys:
I've used ebay for many of my devices with no issues over the years.
[General Questions and Answers] MorgLaw:
I only know about Samsung s7, and I used Ebay too from time to time, all good for me.
[General Questions and Answers] cannabiscure:
S7 looks like it might be the winner, because you can get it for $100, the LG G7 is more specs but it is more money for a clean one.
[General Questions and Answers] cannabiscure:
I looked at that site, the Samsung S8 was more expensive there than ebay by about $20.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
But, with eBay, you take a chance on what you actually get. Many people have bought phones on ebay and ended up getting screwed. Hence, my warning, forget about ebay when it comes to buying phones.
[General Questions and Answers] cannabiscure:
You're always taking a chance with what you get even when you go to the store to buy groceries, you won't know what's in the box until you get home and open it.

So how is this other site better? You have failed to explain the difference.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Huh, we are talking about two different things.

In this scenario, the chance I'm talking about is whether the device you get is actually the device you paid for or whether it actually works or has a valid IMEI number. Plus, phones cost considerably more than any item that you could possibly buy at a grocery store. If you buy a grocery that you aren't satisfied with, how much have you lost on that item? A few dollars? Also, I'm pretty sure that when you buy something at the grocery store, you know what you are getting because it is right there in front of you to visually and physically inspect, plus, when you open it, it contains exactly what it says it is, whether you find it satisfying or not is a different story altogether.

What you are saying is no comparison to what I'm talking about.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] cannabiscure:
I was noticing so many reviewers like the S7, but I was wondering about the glass back. I mean they say the S7 is better than the HTC 10. But the S7 looks fragile in comparisons, however S7 is waterproof kind of, HTC is not.

[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] rayraymond:
Hi

I have a China bought Xiaomi 10 Pro 5g phone and now i am in Hong Kong

I wonder if one sim card slot can work in 5g while the second slot has a 4g sim

I tried with China Mobile (local service provider in Hong Kong)

If 5g and 4g sim cards are inserted, both are working in 4g (internet speed only 100mbps)

when the second card is removed(4g), the 5g card reaches 575mbps

So i wonder if the setting is wrong or the phone won't support 5g while the second slot is inserted with a 4g card.

The commercial from 10 lite specifically indicated only support 4g+4g, but 10 Pro gives me an understanding it should support 1 slot in 5g and the other in 4g is capable.

Anyone has this setup to their phone and can share?

anyone?
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro  Questions & Answers] achimmexico:
I have the same experience. I have 5G on SIM1 with SIM2 deactivated or 4G + 4G with SIM1 and SIM2. According to Xiaomi support this is the reason why the Mi 10 Pro supports only single SIM on the Global ROM in Europe to make sure 5G works.
