ZTE Blade 3 no 3G

turkey1969 — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 14:56:41 GMT

I installed an app and I also followed old threads relating to getting 3G working for a ZTE Blade. My new phone is a ZTE Blade 3 and none of the old steps will make my 3G work. I previously had it working no problems on IPhone 5C.

Any tips for the ZTE Blade 3 please

The online configurator lists the Blade III

Thanks but neither works. I tried Tweaker 40 times past two weeks but it won't send text or settings to my phone. I also tried the manual options several times and no success either. I'm thinking of buying another handset this is cracking me up 😞

Did you try the Tweakker APN app from the play store? Not the online configurator. That should work. Enable data roaming too. You don't have to buy a new handset!

Hope this helps.

By the way I've had no success with the online configurator either - with several phones. In all cases it never sent any configuration text. I don't know why this was the case. 48 could never explain it either.

You shouldn't have to do that.
Did you try the Tweakker APN app from the Google Play Store?
Post your settings here for review/comment.
It is definitely possible to get this working.

Hope this helps.

Yes I have been trying the tweaked app past week made no difference, I also bought a full app called offline sim database and that just keeps stating an error. I also originally tried banually inputting the required info for 48 and none works

So what are your settings right now?
And do you have data roaming enabled?

Some of your settings are wrong - e.g. MCC, MNC, Authentication Type, MMS APN etc.

Delete all APNs and then add a new one with these settings:

Enable data roaming.

This should work for both internet access and MMS.

If it doesn't then post back and we can try tweaking things.

Hope this helps.
