Data Roaming in Japan with the Android Bionic - or not...

I signed up for a global data plan using my Android Bionic. I can receive calls without a problem and I'm able to place calls. However despite my best efforts I am unable to use any data on my phone (every time I try I get the message "No Data Connection" . I have enabled data roaming and checked all of the settings I can find. Anybody care/able to tell me what I'm doing wrong? It's a major inconvenience to not have data access while here. FWIW, I'm in Kobe, which according to the map should have full voice and CDMA data coverage.

Hey everyone,
So I just called the verizon customer service whom connected me to global data customer service (or whatever the name was...)
Basically most cities in Japan doesn't support CDMA network, which is required for Bionic (and I'm assuming for Nexus as well) for data roaming. Most of Japan's network is using GSM. I believe some Verizon android phones supports GSM, though not sure which ones they are.
I asked her when I signed up for the global service plan, why the customer rep didn't check my phone's incompatibility for Tokyo. She said that the customer service will usually only check at the country level, and not by cities. On their system, Japan is shown as eligible as some cities does support CDMA.
I also asked which cities support CDMA network, and she said Sendai, Yokohayam, Osaka, Toyama. Probably there's few others but that was enough as a list for me.
David, I didn't check if Kobe has CDMA coverage (as you stated), so for your case, I'm not sure if my issue applies.
Btw, I stopped my global data service plan immediately, as there's no use. However the lady that helped me out was very helpful in detail so kudos to her!

  • Blackberry 10 the data isn't compatible with the version of the device software that you are currently running

    Hi,
    my update to 10.3.1.1565 messed the handwriting input up on my phone.  so I tried to downgrade to 10.2.1, upon doing so all my files were wiped,  however I thought I was being smart by doing a complete backup this morning while running 10.3.1.1565 prior to attempting the os downgrade to 10.2.1 using BlackBerry Link, 
    Anyway I had to restore my device back to 10.3.1.1565 and now when I attempt to do a restore using the .bbb ( backup ) which I created earlier on today i.e getting the following error message:
    blackberry 10 the data isn't compatible with the version of the device software that you are currently running
    the software versions on my phone now and the software version when I did my backup are exactly the same 10.3.1.1565.  I'm able to restore my user files and apps ect, as it offers to do a partial restore,., but my contacts, and remember files are now gone.  I NEED THESE.  how do I get these back..
    please help..

    Hi,

  • I got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this?

    i got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this and get my information back?

    Every backup replaces the old one, so, unless you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you can't get back your calendar info.
    The only time iTunes will not replace a backup is, when you use it to restore from, this one will stay in the backup list in iTunes.

  • How to fix "Modifying a column with the 'Identity' pattern is not supported"

    When doing Code First Migrations my mobile service always errors in the seed method with: 'Modifying a column with the 'Identity' pattern is not supported. Column: 'CreatedAt'. Table: 'CodeFirstDatabaseSchema.Methodology' for the CreatedAt column. All my
    models inherit from EntityData. 
    // Sample model
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
    using Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Mobile.Service;
    namespace sbp_ctService.Models
    public class Methodology : EntityData
    public Methodology()
    this.Scenarioes = new List<Scenario>();
    public string Id { get; set; }
    [Required]
    [StringLength(50)]
    public string EntryMethod { get; set; }
    [Required]
    [StringLength(50)]
    public string TestDirection { get; set; }
    [Required]
    [StringLength(50)]
    public string PassCriteria { get; set; }
    [Required]
    [StringLength(50)]
    public string Dependency { get; set; }
    public bool ExtraInfo { get; set; }
    public virtual ICollection<Scenario> Scenarioes { get; set; }
    And in my Configuration.cs file during an update here's my seed method:
    protected override void Seed(sbp_ctService.Models.sbp_ctContext context)
    // This method will be called after migrating to the latest version.
    context.Methodologies.AddOrUpdate(
    m => m.Id,
    new Methodology { Id = "Methodology1", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "P/F", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Round" },
    new Methodology { Id = "Methodology2", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Round" },
    new Methodology { Id = "Methodology3", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "In/Out" },
    new Methodology { Id = "Methodology4", EntryMethod = "P/F", PassCriteria = "Best", Dependency = "None", ExtraInfo = false, TestDirection = "Out" }
    For some reason on an update the CreatedAt field is created and given a value of null. So of course on an insert/update it will error because CreatedAt is an Identity field.
    I've tried to configure the modelBuilder in my context to tell it that CreatedAt is an identity field, but that still doesn't work.
    modelBuilder.Entity<Methodology>()
    .Property(m => m.CreatedAt)
    .HasDatabaseGeneratedOption(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity);
    So far the only way to fix this is by commenting out my Seed data, but it's not a fix. I've seen other solutions where you can force it to not serialize certain fields, but I don't know if those solutions apply.

    So I think this occurs because you might have created the database (Code-first) with POCOs that didn't have the CreatedAt field in them. I think that's what I did and the easiest way to fix it for me was to delete my database and re-create it with my POCOs
    inheriting from Entity Data from the very beginning. We were still in development so it worked out for us but I know some people might not be able to do that. Here's what my table looks like after it was created correctly:
    USE [database_name]
    GO
    /****** Object: Table [sbp_ct].[Methodologies] Script Date: 2/24/2015 9:48:45 PM ******/
    SET ANSI_NULLS ON
    GO
    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
    GO
    CREATE TABLE [schema_name].[Methodologies] (
    [Id] NVARCHAR (128) NOT NULL,
    [EntryMethod] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
    [TestDirection] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
    [PassCriteria] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
    [Dependency] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
    [ExtraInfo] BIT NOT NULL,
    [Version] ROWVERSION NOT NULL,
    [CreatedAt] DATETIMEOFFSET (7) NULL,
    [UpdatedAt] DATETIMEOFFSET (7) NULL,
    [Deleted] BIT NOT NULL,
    [Name] NVARCHAR (MAX) NULL
    GO
    CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX [IX_CreatedAt]
    ON [schema_name].[Methodologies]([CreatedAt] ASC);
    GO
    ALTER TABLE [schema_name].[Methodologies]
    ADD CONSTRAINT [PK_schema_name.Methodologies] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED ([Id] ASC);
    Does yours look something like that?

    Usually that error can be cleared up by renaming the personal config folder. Turn on your OS's hidden files and then go to...
    C: > Users > your username > AppData > Roaming > Dreamweaver (version) > your language > configuration
    Rename the configuration folder configuration-old and start DW up. That should create an entirely new configuration folder and correct the menu.xml file.

    Arthur suggestion works but you shouldnt even be doing this on a SQL Task.
    Use a data flow task. You'll have better control over the data that is being transfered and get better performance because no staging table will be used.
    Just because there are clouds in the sky it doesn't mean it isn't blue. But someone will come and argue that in addition to clouds, birds, airplanes, pollution, sunsets, daltonism and nuclear bombs, all adding different colours to the sky, this

  • A server with the same hostname could not be found!

    Hi macusers,
    I saw that error on multiple threads but I found none related to my issue. So, before ignore it let's describe it:
    Two MAC Mini: one early 2009 and second late 2010. Both OS 10.9.1, MacKeeper installed, 6+Gb for RAM. Both uses the same router to connect the internet. Both are LAN connected not WiFi. I even changed the DNS addresses on router using Google DNS.
    On Mac 2009:
    1. Safari opens pages randomly. Sometimes a website is not open but when I create a new tab and select the website from bookmarks the website is opened while in previous tab still says: Safari cannot find the server .... All those websites are used in my daily work. I am not reseting Safari unless necesary.
    2. MAIL is showing online only Gmail acccount from 4 accounts. The rest of the accounts are not Gmail and appear as Offline. I restart MAIL and they appear online. I have to do that Open/Close MAIL several times a day.
    3. Sharefile and oDesk Team application cannot be opened because of that error: A server with the same hostname could not be found!
    4. Apple Store is displaying questions marks instead of the icons and I can barely see what softwares I have installed.
    Now the beauty. Only on MAC 2009 I am experiencing those issues. The other MAC is fine. So far.
    What I tried so far:
    A. Reboot in SafeMode and Repair Permissions, Repair Disk. Everything OK.
    B. PRAM Reset and SMC Reset.
    C. Scan for viruses. No virus detected.
    oDesk Team app is working fine on the other MAC and I managed to install it on Mac 2009 on Windows 7 partition as well. Is working fine.
    Here are some screenshots showing you some of the errors I am picking on my side.
    That one is taken while trying to connect to ShareFile. After three or four attempts it finally managed to connect.
    That was a beauty. While MacKeeper was showing me that I am Offline, I was talking on Skype with a friend.
    Still cannot access oDesk Team application. However, after several attempts it is logging but what is showing me is a real nightmare.
    If I choose to see my contracts (though in the upper corner there is not my account) they do appear:
    Any valuable entry will be highly appreciate it.
    Warm regards,

    P.S. I just remembered that I saw on a post in here related to the same error that someone from Apple asked a guy to make a test in terminal using a command line. I do it on my MAC and here is the result:

    Hi Grant,
    Here is what I did and so far seems it is wworking.
    1. I deleted oDesk and ShareFile. I removed them using MacKeeper (I found this application very usefull for uninstalling applications as MacKeeper looks for them all over the computer: cache, preferences, application support etc.) While for oDesk is simple as I can look myself for oDesk in any file names, whith ShareFile was a little tricky to amke it amnually as MacKeeper find files that contain Citrix name then ShareFile. I will not guess unless I would search the internet on how to manually remove sharefile from my system.
    2. I manually delete all cahe files and folders from ~Library and ~User/Library.
    3. After reboot I installed Onyx and order maintanance where I checked all its options, including but not limited to DNS caches, fonts caches, everything.
    4. After I reboot computer, I went in Disk Utility and Repaired permissions.
    Reboot again. Now seems to work fine. At least odesk Team is working properly. I will have a second thought for installing ShareFile.
    Some romanian mac users suggested to check my router connectivity and change some DNS in it. Looks like that was also a problem on some MACs. I recall the few weeks ago I had an issue with TP Link router. My computer wasn't connected to internet, though router showed that there is internet connection. I ping router from my computer and I received answer from ping. I ping google from computer, nothing. I ping google from router, was wroking. I connected the computer directly to internet without router, was wroking. When connected back through router, nothing. I contacted the guys from TP Link and they suggested to use google DNS instead of those my ISP provided. But since then I had not experienced any issue with router and internet, until now. The DNS are still those from google.
    I will keep you updated if any issues are appear again. So far, it is working perfectly as it supposed to work.
    Warm regards,
    Sebastian
