APN, Galaxy s23 Ultra/5g?

AliWright — Fri, 04 Aug 2023 21:40:36 GMT

Hi.

Unlocked Galaxy s23 ultra,

I use Straight Talk, that uses Verizon.

I have 5g.

I was told I could use my sim card I have from other phone.

Where you click on network, I believe, we'll where it says tracfone,apn settings, everything is greed out ?and I don't believe it's correct.

Says ,disconnected yet in service?

Also,when I click on preferred network, lte,is set,but also many others,all greed out?

No where 5g?

However,I'm connected to a 5g wifi?.

This is stressing me out..

I've tried everything.

Anyone help please. Oh,also,only on straighttalk ,but also playstore says my device is unknown?

The lady I talked to was of no help. And didn't seem to want to help. Actually, my account was messed up for a week..

Thanks

Place your sim card in your phone turn the phone off turn it back on make sure your data is on and Wi-Fi calling is off for this portion go to settings then connections unselect Auto Select then you will see a list of carriers go ahead and click that carrier SIM card must be activated for it to work and you must have a true unlocked phone for any network including Verizon Straight Talk there is some phones that will not work with Verizon's Network make sure yours does. You can also Try Settings then General management then Reset now Reset
network settings to see if anything changes. You
will have to reconnect all your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
connections settings ect. Let me know how it goes

@AliWright I would recommend getting a new SIM card from your provider instead of trying to troubleshoot using an old SIM card.

Of course anytime It really should work the only thing that would stop it is if your sim card is not activated and you can simply do that by letting your carrier know to activate it good luck

Here are the supported carriers for the US market. US MVNOs not in this list are also supported.
(I wonder if Tracfone supports eSIM...)

Try Settings>General management>Reset>Reset network settings to see if anything changes. You will have to reestablish all prior Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections/settings.

Did the network reset not do anything? Just curious.

Hi! Ya know after getting new sim, I actually did all these steps! Phones now correct! Thank you!

Re: Re: Re: APN,Galaxy s23 Ultra/5g?

AliWright — Thu, 10 Aug 2023 20:52:15 GMT

Yes! It actually did!! Thank you 😊

Ah, alright! Now I'm curious if it was the SIM, network reset, or both that solved your problem. The SIM might have automatically reset your mobile network too. 😅

Oh well, I'm just happy you got everything working now!

AliWright — Thu, 10 Aug 2023 20:57:22 GMT

Another thing driving me insane will be posted soon...

I've got a new sim switched carriers and I'm still dealing with it.. I've done everything I can think of. Been doing this for the past 2 months.. when I set my network settings awhile back it was good for Like a day then boom mobile network off and on all day.

If this is continuing to happen after resetting network settings, I would contact your carrier or go in-store to have them take a look at it.
