Hi Again,
I am beginning to wonder if I have a hardware issue. I have tried these settings. Still no joy.
Am I right in thinking that a hardware issue would also effect SMS and calls rather than picking on poor old mobile data?

[MrT10001]

@mikeand If it works under Android, the UT will be the issue. It may be worthwhile installing some version of Android to test this. (Try /e/OS, it is based on Android (Lineage) is easy to install and is degoogled).

[mikeand]

Thanks for that I will give the /e/OS ago and see what happens.

Hello again,

I installed e/OS and I have mobile data back again. So next step s reinstall UT and see if it is broken from the install. If it is I think I will revert to e/OS. If it is working I will see if it is something else that causes the issue. Waydroid or Libertine containers perhaps.

Would you like me to post back the outcome?

@mikeand maybe you could watch the APN settings in Android, to see if there is something different?

[mikeand]

Unfortunately the ones used by android are as specified by BT for android phones, as posted by Lakotaubp in this thread. 1 amongst the many I tried under UT.

[Lakotaubp]

@mikeand But they work on all my UT devices, which is why your problem is puzzeling.

@lakotaubp @mikeand

Both of you could share the content of the file /etc/ofono/ril_subscription.conf.
Maybe there is some difference, which is needed for the provider?

@Lakotaubp which device do you have?

[Lakotaubp]

@luksus will sort log later. Phone is now Pixel 3a but have used Op5,3 and 1. Only issue I had was making sure the info was saved when entered and splitting it into two. One for mobile data one for mms. Other than that no problem.

@mikeand if you are still interested in solving this issue, you could try the following:

with Ubuntu Touch started, open a terminal and make the root partition writable writeable:

sudo mount -o rw,remount /

Edit the ril_subscription.conf (There are two files, the FP3.conf should be leading, but to be sure, edit both):

sudo nano /etc/ofono/ril_subscription.conf
# and
sudo nano /etc/ofono/ril_subscription.d/FP3.conf

Add useDataProfiles=true:

# Ofono configuration for FP3

[Settings]
#EmptyConfig=false
#Identity=radio:radio
#3GLTEHandover=true
#SetRadioCapability=auto

SetRadioCapability=off
emptyPinQuery=false
radioPowerCycle=false
confirmRadioPowerOn=false
useDataProfiles=true

[ril_0]
transport=binder:name=slot1
name=slot1

[ril_1]
transport=binder:name=slot2
name=slot2 

Then save it, selecting the "Nano" keys at the burger-menu above the keyboard and tapping "Ctrl-X", then hitting "y".
If everything is done, reboot the device.
