Apparently, no one pays it... That's why they shut off your service.

Could not activate cellular data network on iphone 3g
my phone's screen broke yesterday so i bought an iphone 3g from a frend of mine, its running on 4.0.1, i am already on at&t an have an existing data plan but when i try to use the internet i keep gettng this message "could not activate cellular data network" what do i need to do to fix this?
I am absolutely getting LTE. From the iPhone 5S on, the GSM and CDMA phones had identical GSM radios ostensibly for overseas use (in the case of the Verizon phones). Verizon tells you they're only unlocked for overseas so that you won't leave their service for a domestic GSM. Actually, all of the 6's have identical receivers, however the CDMA antennae are disabled on the T-Mobile and AT&T versions... which doesn't matter anyway because Verizon and Sprint won't activate devices that did not originate on their networks though theoretically you could run on Verizon LTE with a GSM only phone as GSM is required for LTE (thus the SIM card in later model Verizon phones).
The Verizon model is the best of everything because it is completely unlocked for any carrier (except Sprint, but who cares, right?).
Edit: forgot to mention... Verizon is required to make all of their LTE phones GSM-unlocked as per their agreement with the FCC when they were acquiring LTE technology. -
Could not activate cellulare data network??? what is the solution please.
everytime i try to log to the internet through the internet service provider on the phone, i get this message (could not activate cellulare data network)
I was loginig before via wifi meanwhile i do not have wifi and i am forced to use the service provider internet.
What should I do , I tried the soft, hard reset as well as the restart with no sucsses.
any advice???I had the same issue "Cannot Activate Cellular Data Network" sometimes says "No Internet..or You are not subscribed to a Data Network". The phone works fine on WiFi.
I noticed this issue only yesterday when tried to access my emails via 3G Data, this may have started happening when I recently updated to 4.3.2 and my phone has never been Jailbroken.
I found a fix that worked for me..I'm using T-Mobile Germany.
Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings>enter Pin code if you have lock enabled>choose Reset Network Settings..
Remember doing this may also erase known WiFi networks, so you may have to enter the details again to get connected to a known WiFi network.
My 3G data started to work again after I did the above steps to default factory network settings.
T-Mobile Germany wasn't much help at all. All they could tell me was some crap about my config was in the wrong contract, Duh??
They probably did nothing to fix the issue and I suspect the above resets steps resolved it for me. Give it a try..

Could not activate cellular data network on iphone 6 plus
I was using an att's prepaid gophone and just bought an iphone 6 plus yesterday. but it shows that "could not activate cellular data network" even if "at&t 4g" logo shows on the top of the screen.
I've asked att for help and they said that my sim card and account are totally correct. When I put other's SIM card in my iphone and put my SIM card in an 5s, both of two iphone worked well. but when my sim card in my iphone, the cellular wouldn't work.
att said that iphone 6 plus which is a very new device may not support prepaid card yet, but i'm not sure if it is the point.
did anyone meet the same problem? i've tried the old solution about clear the cookie and data but it didn't work.

IPHONE 5: can't receive calls and random error messages, such as "could not activate cellular data network" and "no connection - network unavailable, please connect to wifi or cellular network." This occurs even when signal strength or wifi is operational, and it does not matter whether wifi is on or off. ATT went through the standard protocol - resetting network, resetting sim card, etc. No changes. Other phones working fine in same region with same carrier. Apple's solution is to restore software, but haven't gone there yet. Anyone successfully addressed this/these issues?
I should point out that it worked when the iPhone was set back to factory settings, but when restored with the backup, data/internet no longer works again, and I get the "Could not activate cellular data network" error message yet again.

Since upgrading my iPhone 5 to ios 7, I cannot get the internet, email to work on 3g. I get the message ""could not activate mobile data network. You are not subscribed to a mobile data service". How do I fix it?
I've contacted o2, tried all of their suggested updates and changes, reset my phone 3 times and still no luck.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,

Please can someone help me to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3G or GPRS on safari with an iphone 4GS and latest software updates. I have tried resetting the network and phone settings. I have restored the factory settings on itunes and still the problem persists.
All iPhones sold in Japan are sold carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked by the carrier. If you unlocked it, it was by unauthorized means (hacked), and support cannot be given to you in this forum.
Hacked iPhones are subject to countermeasures by Apple, particularly when updating the firmware. It is likely permanently re-locked or permanently disabled.

I am getting an error message with my iPhone whenever I try to access my data with no wifi. It says "could not activate cellular data network". This just started today and has never happened before. Did I change a setting or something?
Hello, romac12.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I have experienced this issue before. If there have been any changes to your cellular account such as adding a line, plan change or upgrade, more than likely there is a provisioning issue on the carrier end. However, I would recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below. If the issue persists, see step 9.

I've lost cellular date network, all unopened important business emails and internet access on my Ipad 2 after 5.0 upgrade. Received "Could not activate cellular date network" - I have turned on and off, removed the sim and checked the APN is correct. Can anyone help - struggling and need for my business.

If you have a data only plan for the iPad with your carrier, if no change after powering your iPad off and on you will need to contact your carrier.

Could not activate cellular data network iPhone 6
I bought a launch day iPhone 6 and I've been having trouble with my carrier, MetroPCS. I use MetroPCS on the GSM side of the network and for some reason at least three times a day I get the "could not activate cellular data network" message. I've tried everything from getting a new SIM to restoring my iPhone. I don't think it'd be my iPhone because I've used other SIMs in it without a problem whatsoever. Any suggestions to keep this from happening? my iPhone 5S never had any issues with the carrier, I've had MetroPCS's GSM side network since it was released.
Hello espi_will,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are having trouble with a cellular data connection. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

"Could not activate cellular data network" message on iPhone 3GS (iOS 4.1)
May this year I purchased a brand new iPhone 3GS 16GB from Vodafone on a 24mnth plan with 2gb of data monthly for mobile and tether use. The 3G and normal gsm data alwyas worked in areas where it was avalible until 3 months ago. In safari i would get a message stating that "Could not activate cellular data network" and in all apps no internet serivces worked unless wifi was activated.
I put my sim in my n95 and my 5800 and internet worked on both. I got my number put onto a new sim card. I restored iPhone. I updated iPhone to 4.1 and reset all network settings.
Nothing worked and apple came to the conclusion that it was a faulty handset and replaced it on saturday. Today when I woke up, the same message appeared!!!!
Please anyone help
Message was edited by: r.spiroskiI am having similar problems.
My network settings are correct and I can communicate both over 3G and WiFi.
However, every few minutes the connection is being dropped. A few seconds later it's back again. I can see this in an application I am developing. It's rather frustrating...
In the console I see this message prior to the connection being lost and rebuilt:
"Mon Sep 20 09:44:58 PeterVs-iPhone-3GS configd[23] <Notice>: network configuration changed."
I have not changed anything to the configuration. What's even more strange is that I ONLY have 3G at this moment, i.e. WiFi is disabled.
What is changing the network configuration? And why does it mean that the current network connection needs to be torn down and rebuilt? After the network is back, there is no difference than before. So it gets torn down and rebuilt for no apparent reason.
I have logged a bug with Apple over a week ago, but haven't had any reply from them yet. I need more information about what is happening, and how I can prevent it. I'm not very happy having to grope in the dark, having to make guesses because somebody decided that he knows what's best for me.
This is happening on multiple iPhones with multiple different OS-es. So I am guessing it is related to my carrier (Vodafone). But I can't verify it because I'm not getting the tools from Apple.
