Does it make calls with your sim in it?

If yes, then you need to manually set up your internet connectivity depending on your network.

Just Google APN settings for your network provider and follow the steps. E go browse.

You need to flash another firmware on it.

Omo it's a long process, and honestly, you could brick your phone doing it.

But do a search on how to change firmware on Samsung devices. There's a process to follow..

If you have the patience it will work for you

1. When you turn on mobile data, does the LTE/H+/H shows or not?

if it does show, probably you disabled your browser from accessing the internet using mobile connection, you'll need to enable it through Settings>>Applications.

If it doesn't show, you will need to manually set up your apn.

2. If it's not the above problem...
a. Try resetting Network Settings
if it still doesn't work
b. Try resetting All settings
if it still doesn't work
c. Try Factory resetting everything
but you'll loose all your files that aren't backed up.


Let us know, if any of the above solved your problem

Plz where can i get Samsung Galaxy A8s screen, I went to computer village and I could not get the screen there, apart from AliExpress which online store can I order for the screen from. Please help me guys.

It shows 4G when I on my mobile data but still won't browse. I just tried the last option you suggested which is restoring Factory settings. At a point it says to set up use WiFi, sim is not from Verizon. I'm concluding the problem is coming from the SIM not been a Verizon phone. How do I solve the problem now.

ur apn settings should be like this

Did u Try putting another sim to see if it will browse

Thanks to all that contributed. The phone is now working

Just go to your settings and choose prefer network type 3G/2G. You don't have strong 4G network that's why it happens that way.

It's normal for Verizon phones to show that popup when you use another sim. also the pop-up will always still come up every time you restart the phone, but it won't matter. you'll still be able to use it just go in and set your apn.

If you're still unable to browse, the last option is to flash a different, global firmware.
