Can't Use Data on Sony Xperia

[c70nut]

I have never had a data plan, after the recent granting of 1G free data to my plan I decided to check it out.   I turned on the data slider in settings,  but no dice.   Data has been credited in my PM account.

Any ideas?

Awesome! Happy data surfing. Be careful, you'll be moving u to a $25 plan in no time. It's so convenient. Toggle your data off when you don't need it for data and MMS and make your 1GB last as long as you can. Good Luck!

To add Internet and MMS settings manually

1. From your Home screen, tap .
2. Find and tap Settings > More > Mobile networks.
3. Tap Access Point Names > .
4. Select Public mobile if not already, should see sp.mb.com, OR go to #5.
5. Tap Name and enter a name as desired.
6. Tap APN and enter the access point name.
7. Enter all other information as required. ...
8. When you're done, tap , then tap SAVE.

Try restarting your phone.

Restart you phone now that data is available. If that doesn't do it check your APN settings,

Try checking your APN Settings. These are mine:
