Revision history [back]

I am currently in Japan and bought a prepaid data-only SIM card from IIJmoi that uses the NTT service. I put in the card and set up the APN settings according to the manual. The card seems to work and the two "mobile data arrows" get displayed, but the signal strength bar stays greyed out. However, this seems to be expected behaviour, as native Sailfish apps work perfectly fine and can access the internet.

The problem arises with android apps. With my german SIM card back in Germany the apps worked perfectly well with mobile data. But with the data-only sim here in Japan they don't. The ones that I tried (LINE, Aptiode, Hyperdia) all tell me that there is no network connectivity or that I should check my network. I already tried reinstalling the apps, reinstalling the android support and upgrading to version 1.1.9. and reinstalling the android support again. None of these worked.
