Bug Description

After upgrading to OTA-12 today, everything seemed to work perfectly. But after rebooting the first time, I was not asked for a SIM PIN number. I had to deactivate/activate the SIM card so I could use the phone again.

Due to the fact that the indicator-network is empty, I tried to activate the 3G connection by using the cellular option in the system settings.

The cellular data option immediately crashes when selecting it.

Edit:
After rebooting a few times and deactivate/activate the SIM card again I could use this option. But I cannot activate/deactivate the cellular data option. My carrier is shown correctly.

I can report cellular data not working also on my Bq E5. The mobile data switch is greyed out and could not be used.

Similar #1609055:

I left my office at about 17:30 h and tried to read my email 10 min. later. No mobile data connection was available (see attached log).

Workaround: Go to flight mode and back to normal (non flight mode)

@michael S.: This I had to do very often as well....already before OTA-12! a common issue I experienced many times. The bug now is not able to toggle Mobile data at all...so switching flightmode on/off has no effect.

In my case the workaround works.
It is not the whole device ccmni0 blocked - only transmission with a huge number of errors:
