Review: Motorola Photon 4G

Recommended Posts

^

GSM roaming guard is off but domestic is grayed out.

Who is your service provider? and what APN are you using. I am using rcomnet.

Network mode is GSM; No data tracking; Data saver is off; Data delivery is enabled;

So can't really figure out the issue with the Reliance GSM data on roaming.

Dhiraj ji,

just tried Vodafone gsm prepaid service for 3g data connection on phonton 4g and elctrify on roaming both are working fine ..

may be some issue currently going on with reliance gsm network or rconnect apn setting

Regards

Vaibhav

Ps. my moto defy had no data connection issue once (not in roaming) i installed some widgets then all sync was stopped.

as you have already mention no new sw is install then this might not be issue .

DK,

One small suggestion, hope it works for you.

Go to Menu, Apps, SIM Toolkit, there you will get International Roaming or Roaming whatever. Change the settings here, restart your mobile. See if it works.

Did your Photon go abroad recently? This happens with many phones, esp Nokias even while roaming in India. I have tried this with my son's Nokia & Voda and also my niece's Nokia & Idea.

After restart, it will start working.

Try it.

Nope, that didn't work either. In the sim toolkit, if I selected Roam, then I don't get the network at all. If home is selected then network and edge comes for a few seconds, after which data disappears.

In my RGSM mobile, on selecting Sim Toolkit, there is a option Roaming under which there are two options - Home and Roam. One of them has (On) beside it. Try selecting the other, then restart the device and check. If this does not work, try with the other option, restart and check again. Maybe you could even try removing the SIM and then reinserting it. I am hopeful your problem will be resolved.

You will not get any network selection at all. Only two options are there - Home and Roam. On selecting either of these, one message will pop, "Already on". After this you have to exit from the SIM Toolkit and then either remove the SIM and reinsert and restart or just restart your device. Hopefully if this does not happen, try with the other option and check again.

Hello Everyone,

I just registered my old Motorola photon on R-CDMA. I am able to use voice as well as Data (1x and EvDO).

But when i send SMS for data balance. MBAL to 55333. It says you are not a valid RIM subscriber. Please try again later.

What could be the issue ?

Can't play videos on you tube app. Even after resetting ##data## multimedia parameters.

It plays fine in browser though.

I cannot get usb or Wi-Fi tethering as my photon keeps saying you are not subscribed for this facility.

I have rooted it already. Can anyone guide me?

Get sqlite editor and there is entitlement check. Make it 0 from 1 and reboot.

Is there a free app to do this entitlement check?

I downloaded two from market, both asked me to open stuff from phone memory. I don't know where this thing is located.

use SQLLite Editor to modify settings.db for “Settings Storage” application ( com.motorola.android.providers.settings ). Set entitlement_check to 0 and reboot the phone.
