I've had my one x a few days now after upgrading from a desire. on the desire I set up my apn settings so that I could tether my 3g connection on my laptop. I've gone into the settings on the one x but the consumer broadband one is locked, and creating a new apn doesn't work. does the phone need to be unlocked to edit and add apns?
Also after using the phone.. it really isn't anywhere near as perfected as the desire. it's laggy and not as smooth. for a quad core device i expected more tbh.. i hope future updates sort this phone out !

I can't get wifi hotspot to work (Tmob UK). I don't think it's a block on their side - when I put the sim in my old Desire (CM7) it works fine. So it's something in the OneX. I'm rooted, but none of the thrid party apps like Barnacle work either.
Anyoen know what's up, I'm tearing my hair out!
had same problem after flashing roms, resolved it by going to apns settings and under menu resetting to default, give it a try
Go to wireless network settings, find the apn part, create a new apn with the exact same setting as the default one (one with the blue dot) BUT rename it to: 'Consumer Broadband' BOOM problem solved

If your rooted it could be down to the APN settings as i used to have to change it on me old devices for orange, HD2 and Desire bravo, but didnt have to change anything on me one x stock, type it into google along with tmobile and the right apn settings should be there if not ring your network provider and they will give you them over the phone, the apn was called something like consumer broadband on my desire.. hope this helps
Thanks All,
Changing the name worked a treat!
Hi,
My question is not regarding interet pass through. My question is that on my phone I cannot get my mobile internet working on my phone.
When I try to tick(select) mobile intyerent option on the phone, it doesn't allow me to change that option. I have read the forum on htc website. I believe that the latest software update for this phone model is the cause behind mobile interent not working on the phone.
I want to know, If anything can be done to solve this issue and get back the mobile interent to work on the phone?
May be by degrading (uninstalling) the software update to the previous version. Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Regards,
S

Go and check your Access point name; setting>mobile data>access point name.
if there is no APN , you have to fill up your APN name.

Yes , I am using Optus network sim, but the phone was originally locked to Vodafone network. I unlocked the phone, so now I can use any sim card in it.
I get the GSM signals to make calls, I can use wifi but its just the internet, thats not working. !

Yes, data roaming is "ON" mode. I have another phone- HTC DESIRE HD (on which I can use my optus mobile interent) and the settings on HTC ONE X is similar to the one on HTC DESIRE HD.
Was there any issue with the HTC ONE X latest software update(which was available few months back) ???

Try to set up the APN settings new...could be that something is f%ucked up there...

APN setting s are correct , my friend !
Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone know how to access the MVNO setting (mobile virtual network operator type) within APN of the HTC One M8.
I live in Australia and currently on the Virgin Mobile Network which is a MVNO of Optus. I was on a M7 and recently bought a M8 off a friend for cheap. However when I have installed the nano SIM, I can only make calls and texts and could not get the internet to work even when the APN settings are correct. I took it to the Virgin Mobile store and they have also tried playing around with the APN settings with no luck.
The odd thing is that when I remove the SIM card and place it in another phone it doesn't work on the other phone either . But when I try place a SIM card from another carrier (Telstra) into my M8 it works fine. Virgin Mobile has issued me a new nano SIM and I did the same tests and got the same results which is really odd. Virgin Mobile has also checked on their system and confirmed to me that internet is ACTIVE.
I've been reading around and the only other solution I can think of is accessing the MVNO setting and changing in to IMSI in hope it works. If anyone could please tell me how to access MVNO on the M8 it would be much appreciated.
Network: Virgin Mobile
Phone is SIM unlocked
Bootloader unlocked, S-OFF and Super CID
ROM: Android revolution HD 21.0
Firmware : 3.28.401.7
Most likely you need a different radio...

I just checked on my phone under mobile networks > APNs and at the very bottom I get the option to choose the MVNO type and value, so the only thing I can suggest is making a twrp backup of your current arhd and flashing another rom with that option (since it's not appearing on the one you're using).
The rom I'm on right now is Dirty Unicorns.
I think you might be on to something

Thanks for your help. I managed to solve the issue. It was simply a bad imei, changing it did the trick.

I need to try to this my imei number is no goodfrom the previous owner whofiled it lost when he thought it had been stolen yet lucky me it showed up a day after he the replacement did for the HTC One Max????? (HTC6600LVW) yet I am sticking with my Galaxy Note 3 as the 200 difference from the CPU is a great deal when being held next to each other... So I've decided to sell it to my roommate who uses metro pcs told her to buy an unlock pin for her SIM card to work. I read about rooting the phones but being that it is not mine I'm not lying to the poor girl am I?
So I jumped on the AT&T/DirecTV Unlimited data deal and ported my phone today. It all looked normal and I got the activation texts and such - it even populated the nxtgenphone APN info (though it was deselected and I had to select it). Anyway, I've had no data at all. As a test, I switched the APN to phone and data works, but the speeds appear to be much lower than what my wife's iPhone is seeing on the nxtgenphone APN. Anyone got any tips?
I'm running Viper 2.5, latest US unlocked firmware and US unlocked selected as carrier, and it works fine on AT&T other than this......only other thing I can mention is when I select preferred band or whatever it shows WCDMA/GSM and if I change it to WCDMA/GSM/LTE it reverts back for some reason. Any help much appreciated. I've called AT&T and they're like, uh, we don't sell the HTC 10 so can't really help you... grrrrrr.....

I'd suggest ruu to stock us unlocked rom and see if the issue persists.
Or, try clean flash of viper.
I have no issues using US unlocked on AT&T with both stock rom and ice.
Thanks for trying to help. I just finished trying stock RUU and same problem. I'm convinced, as I was before, that this is AT&T's issue. I've read numerous posts this afternoon that because the HTC 10 (and other phones) aren't in their "LTE approved" database, nxtgenphone APN won't work, or it will only give HSPA speeds. Seems like everyone who has resolved it, or didn't run into the issue at all had another AT&T LTE phone they could use for the IMEI on the account, or the rep entered the model as an iPhone or similar to make it work. Really, really frustrating, as they refuse to help me and I'm starting to think I should just terminate in the 14 day window and do T-mobile or Verizon.
I have at&t and everything worked out of the box, I've never been on stock rom, always on Viper I did the unlock and s-off without a sim and never had an issue or called at&t to activate the device I just transferred my sim from my note 4 to the HTC 10, no provisioning issues at all, VOLTE works, LTE is fine as well while on a phone call... No issues... If you need anything to compare let me know

Thanks for replying. They did confirm it was a provisioning issue and they fixed it today. They had to do something different, as the default HTC 10 provisioning and IMEI check didn't fix it even when they tried it a second time, but they were able to adjust something and LTE definitely works now. VoLTE working here, too. Thanks!
What happened with my HTC 10 and my SIM card this weekend? I was able to fix it so I'll explain problem and solution. I'm just looking for an understanding from someone smarter than me.
TL : DR ==> Why do two different devices with the same service have locked SIM settings that changed between devices and causing one of the devices (HTC 10) to not have working data?
My HTC 10 is on Viper10 (Nougat Sense based). My wife's phone is a OnePlus3 (FreedomOS (stock based rooted rom on Nougat)).
Both devices are on T-Mobile same plan. We both have T-Mobile so when travelling international we enjoy using the service. Well this is our first trip with both of these devices. We land in Canada and check the box allow data roaming on both phones. The OP3 lights up immediately and has LTE data. The HTC 10 shows no data. I have a signal for voice and whatnot but no data. Going into phone settings it says "disconnected because service is unavailable" under the mobile data toggle. If I go under about phone at the bottom of settings it says LTE but it just refuses to connect the phone.
I don't have much time to mess with this on a vacation but I'm seriously not happy right now. I work though it by trying to swap the SIM cards thinking maybe that's the issue. Nope. OnePlus3 lights up data on my HTC's SIM card but the OP3's SIM card causes same error on HTC 10. I have MultiROM so I booted up a new ROM just for testing to see if maybe it was the ROM causing a problem. I switched to an AOSP based ROM and same problem. No data but I have a signal for basic phone usage.
Now I'm starting to get pissed. I went into the APN section of both phones. They both have a lock icon next to the one supplied by T-Mobile but the APNs are slightly different in their configuration. HTC 10's shows APN roaming protocol as IPV4 whereas the OP3 shows APN roaming protocol as IPV6. I manually created a new APN on the HTC 10 with the exact same settings on the OP3 and BOOM instantly got data working. :laugh:
So to recap from above, why do two different devices with the same service have locked SIM settings that changed between devices and causing one of the devices to not have working data? It wasted a good hour of my trip trying to fix it. If that APN switch didn't fix it I was about to give up and just use the wife's phone for the trip.
Some things you could try...
Deleting apn settings, then hit reset to default. Then reboot phone. Also if you're using T-mobile SIMs they are tied to the device by IMEI. In TLDR seemed like you were trying to swap SIMs.
concerning the data being weird after SIM swap (if they're both unlocked) maybe they have different bands or one has stronger radio.

Thanks for the advice! I had swapped the sim card from my unlocked HTC M9 to a new unlocked HTC M10 and everything was great for a week until one morning it wasn't. I was familiar with creating new APN s when travelling. Followed your advice to a T. Worked first time. I'm currently on the Bell network in Ontario.

Another thing you can try is boot into the BOOTLOADER, not download mode, and do 'fastboot erase persist'

Also note that the command is for S-OFF only devices. And that command only helps when you downgraded the firmware from oreo to nougat or lower. For S-ON devices it works completely different. It has no relation to APN settings.
