So I have an iphone 5 which I bought from a pawnshop that was originally a sprint network iphone. when I bought the iphone it had been flashed to cricket. I reset the phone on my computer to its factory settings so it went back to sprint and had it connected (with sprint).
However now the phone won't load unless i'm connected to wifi and shows a message saying "can not connect to cellar data network," or " can not access cellular data." The only time it will work without wifi is when i have LTE (almost never) and rarely when a small circle is at the top instead of 3g. Anything requiring internet or cellular data does not load when the 3g appears. yet I'm able to make calls and send texts, I'll be able to send IMessages off and on but usually not.
Did flashing it mess up the phone? do I just have to flash it to sprint instead of just resetting it, is there anything I can do to fix this problem or is it just sprint being a **** service provider ?
