Replaced SIM card to put in replacement phone, talk/text working but data not

AliB1991

Tl;dr version

  • Old phone: Samsung A32 5G (lost)
  • New phone: Blackview A80s
  • Sim card reading talk/text, plan paid for 6 days ago, no data connection despite standard troubleshootin

On July 14th, my regular phone (A Samsung A32 5g) went missing in the disaster zone known as my house. After 2 months of not finding it, I caved and ordered 2 replacement SIM cards, got one of them activated as the replacement (about a week ago), and today put the card in. (My short-term phone plan was expiring in a few days)

I went to turn on my SoundCloud, expecting to have tunes on my commute to work... Nope. Turned off wifi. Enabled and disabled airplane mode. Rebooted the phone again. Switched to 3G (maybe the issue being the phone itself?), Still nothing, turned back over to 4G preferred.

I'm at a loss here. I was so excited to return to [s]greater than 1gb[/s] 20gb planship, only now I'm stuck at (still) 0 usable data T_T What the heck am I doing wrong this time?!

MCC is 302

compare this full list

APN: sp.mb.com

Server:
MMSC: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc
MMS Proxy: mmscproxy.mobility.ca
MMS Port: 8799

           (might need to include DUN for hotspot, please note case sensitive)

                or  Turn APN on/off APN turned on

I said check. I guess you did add. MCC is 302. I'm betting you'll have more questions.

I put in those settings, but it says MCC needs to be 3 digits?

While you're waiting, check your APN settings.

Name: whatever you want
APN: sp.mb.com
MMSC: http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc
MMS proxy: mmscproxy.mobility.ca
MMS port: 8799
APN type: default,mms,dun
APN enable/disable: APN enabled - probably on anyway and greyed out
MVNO type: GID
MVNO value: 4D

Save, then select to use, then go in and out of airplane mode

It looks like that's what I'm going to have to do 😅 Figured I'd see if there were any other self-troubleshoot options before having to contact support directly. Thanks for everyone's ideas tho!!

I went into the sim card swap thing in my account. Number hadn't passed deletion date, it was inactive from July 21 to September 10.

I did try rebooting the phone. Twice. I just reset network settings, I'll see if that fixes it otherwise I'll move onto the next suggestion xD

@AliB1991  And you tried re booting the phone or reset network settings . But I’m a lil confused one of the replacement sims you got did you activate it or SIM card swap the number in your account . If you activated it seems you have two accounts in the go you mentioned the disaster in your house 2 months is it possible it was more then 90 days in suspended state if that the case that account will be closed dial *611 from it can it find your number 

Personally, I would not reset all networks. That includes any and all WiFi places they've saved. Just the PM Network should be enough.

Hey @AliB1991 

Go to your settings and find network settings. Turn off Automatic and pick Public Mobile and reboot. See if that resolves it.
