Setting......

Was checking a buddy’s att 3g for him and the external battery was low, but replaced it and it showed full battery and full bars.  Took a manual pic and sent it and it just sat on setting.... and then failed.  Think it said error 108.   I think years ago I had a similar issue when my service expired and didn’t catch it. 

He’s out of the country, no way that I know of to check data plan.   Does full bars and no pics stuck on setting generally mean the data plan is expired ?

  That could be premium credits, if he's still getting the main status report every day then his data is fine and he's probably out of credits.

  Last status report was the morning it quit with P =0.    Strange thing is it failed manual pics , didn’t take any pics of me leaving or filling a feeder, but it sent a pic this evening.  Maybe he saw me on all the other cams and bought credits or data.  🤔

  It's possible, it could be questionable signal too, do you know if his firmware is up to date?

  If you’re not sure about connection, do the hello test (fourth tab, Diagnostics). If that is successful, you have a connection. Then you can try manual send.

  Firmware was updated last year, odd it had all signal bars next to the ATT logo and it be a signal issue. I formatted the disc just to make sure it wasn’t the issues I’ve seen that before.  It’s working now will see what happens.
