========================================
So yesterday I got the new firmware update and download and installed automatically. I thought everything was good but when I went out and went on my mobile data I saw that I was not able to see my data go thru. I mean I saw the h+ and a full bar but no data was coming thru. I couldn't make calls or nothing and my mobile company said that I was still getting data. So is it because of the new update that now I am not able to get data thru?

Also, can I ask you what is that little notification icon in your status bar which looks to me as a telephone service notification. Do tell me about that.

Also, you can try one more workaround to see if it works,
Set your preferred network type to "lte only" then see what happens. Then revert it back to what it is right now.

So I just ordererd another sim from a different carrier to test to see if that one works. I won't reset until I get that one for now. I tried the lte and nothing happens. What weird too is when I manually take off the mobile data and am literally not supposed to have any bars the bars are still there.

And that's like after 5 mins off. The telephone icon is for the Viber app btw.

Take of the mobile data?? You are wrong here... H+ is hybrid+ so it just a later form of 3g so when you disable mobile data the network bars should stay full as they are in your screen shot. H+ is your data connection and not your network connection. I think you are confused b/w mobile data and airplane mode. Bro network bars are supposed to show only when airplane mode is disabled. If you see a sim cross sign or a network bar empty with a cross sign then you will have some problem with your phone. Btw?have you tried your sim in another device? Or have you tried another sim in your phone. There was no need of ordering another sim. You could simply check if yours was working or not by putting it in another device.
Well, not scaring you or something, if another sim also does not work or your sim works in other phone perfectly then the chances of solution of this by yourself will be pretty low even if you perform a factory reset.
