[Q] What are your APN Settings for Straight Talk (AT&T) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

For those of you using GN2 T-Mobile on Straight Talk AT&T, can you share your APN settings?
I tried a lot of settings out there but my download is very very low 7-8kbps
The upload around 1.5-2Mbps, low but OK
On T-Mobile, I get decent downloads/uploads (5-6.6Mgps/1.5-2Mbps) but the voice is very crappy and a lot of drop calls.
Simple Mobile similar to T-Mobile
Now on my 3rd test I cannot get a good data on Straight Talk (AT&T). The voice calls are great and the data very slow.
I need apn settings to get at least 5Mbps

Setting the apns described on the page did not make a difference.
In fact on speedtest I got 3kbps download vs 1.2Mbps upload :laugh:
Thanks for the info.
I will use Straight Talk for few days before deciding if I can handle the slow speed.
I get what I pay for.

I will ask my son, what speed he is getting on his phone with AT&T.
The funny thing is I can watch Hulu or Netfix with no problem on ST.

straight talk APN settings
I have a LG Nexus 4 but I don't think it really matters much which phone you have when you put in the APN settings.
My phone did not work until I called straight talk customer service. They did something that involved "provisioning" my account and also asked me to use the following settings:
name: straight talk
APN: att.mvno
proxy: (leave blank)
port: 80
MMSC: http colon slash slash mmsc.cingular.com (replace the words colon slash slash with the actual characters :// )
MMS proxy: mms2.tracfone.com
MMS port:80
Note: if you want the speedtest.net app to work, you need the 'proxy' field above to be blank. Straight talk recommends using proxy.mvno.tracfone.com in the proxy field, which works OK but blocks speedtest.net

E stands for edge so it should be slow.
Try forcing it to only use 3G.

Here's what you're going to do: find a tall building in your city, get in the elevator, go to the top floor and jump. This not only saves you, but the humanity as well.

Unlocked the T-mobile phone to work on AT&T, no data usage. HELP!

I got a Samsung Galaxy SII T989 new, for free, off of my uncle who gets phones for promotional purposes. It's a T-mobile phone, and I'm on AT&T. I paid for an unlock code and successfully unlocked my phone for use on AT&T. I can text, call, and use WiFi, but can't get the data to work. (I also can't send or receive MMS messages, not sure if it's related. HELP!

couple things have you asked on the AT&T forum and have you done a google search on how to get your Tmobile phone to work on AT&T?
next is have you changed or rather added the new apn? if any of this is an issue for you I would say your best bet is to trade the phone on craigslist for someone with the skyrocket.
since the two phones are interchangeable as far as roms go I would suspect with a little more digging you will find your answer... check here

Phone won't connect to mobile data after flashing

After flashing my phone it can't connect to the mobile data network. I re-flashed the phone back to stock and it still doesn't work. On wi-fi the phone works fine. The 4g symbol shows up with the upload download arrows flashing but I don't get any signal.
Can someone please help me? I'm really frustrated...
Flash a different modem?
Did you check maybe you lost the imei on the process of flashing
If 4g is displsyed its probably not imei, but check it anyway.
Also turn off wifi calling and see if thst hss any affect.

You'll be amazed at what a battery pull can fix.
I've tried multiple roms with different radios/modems but no luck.
The IMEI is still there. I don't know what the problem is... For example though, every time I try to go to a website, it gets automatically redirected to http://androidapi.t-mobile.com/apppack/mvno.html I doubt that means anything but just putting everything that I know.
I have the same issue and cant figure it out. Ill keep you posted if I figure something out.

Go to the the "acess tmobile" app and go to your plan and click upgrade. Done. Plan stays the same and everything works again.

I can't even go to any websites on my phone without wifi. When I tried to open that app it wouldn't let me because it said that I can't use wi-fi with it.
And I did "check" my APN, I don't really know if there's anything wrong with it. I'm actually doing this for a friend and I have a Sprint SG3 that I rooted with absolutely no problems. This t-mobile phone though is really trying my patience.
try it again. turn wifi off and run the app. It should take you to your account.
Just go return it then get another phone.
The phone will literally not connect to ANYTHING data related unless on a wifi network. Unfortunately this t-mobile app will not work over wifi so I'm still stuck on what I can do.

FYI : speed depends on your network, where you are at the time, area, city. Are you close to a tower. Those all come into play when checking speed!!

I never heard of that one and type up above called mas?...wth is that?
Most of the apn types I found last year I know a tech thru AT&T and he taught me most of those and a explanation of what each one does..as he used the ones I posted. ..so I just shared the knowledge to the family here..

but im glad i found this and hope theres more at&t apn becasue i like changing mine alot but kinda sucks how my phone isnt unlocked so i can do a tmobile or something different but i do have atmobile apn but im sad because i cant use it.

Just use "phone" instead of "pta"
I'm on dicksteele's ROM and I can't modify or delete the default APN. Creating a new APN and enabling it did not do anything since it resorted to the default APN. I've tried deleting the APN config file out of system/etc and the APN apps don't work with 4.3. Is there any way to get rid of the default APN so I can try the one wish came up with or is this APN method so old that the benefits are no longer existent?

Sqlite editor pro
If your rooted you can use sqlite editor to go into system files an delete your default apn's or once you find the apn change the vaule under default from 1 meaning its the active default apn to 0.....when you get app only paid pro version can change apns.....look around enough on this site you can find it free or google the apk cracked ones that work everywhere........to locate your apn you have to have a root explorer installed.....run sqlite....click file at top after you grant it super user permission.........follow.....data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephon.db/carriers......apns are all listed there.

[Q] mms working with Cricket?

I've followed most of this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/help/guide-fire-phone-fireos-google-apps-t3206603) along with updating to 4.6.6, to set up my fire phone, and almost everything is working. I've activated the phone with a Cricket sim, and I can get internet and sms fine. I still can't get mms to send or receive. I've tried several different APN settings from the Cricket website and others. I've tried using the stock messaging app as well as handcent.
Is anyone else using Cricket with their fire phone and able to send/rec mms? If so, what are your APN settings?
My wife's fire phone is working with Cricket, including MMS. I think Cricket takes up to 24 hours to re-reoute SMS/MMS correctly. Maybe give it a day and see if it fixes itself.

I would have to wait until tonight to check her phone, but my Nexus 5 is working with those APN settings.
Well, it turns out the fire phone is set to use the AT&T APN. The Cricket APN is there on the phone, but the AT&T one is selected. And everything is working fine on her phone.
Here is a thread from howardforums that describes this same situation.

Also, I neglected to mention that I use Google Voice, so all my SMS/MMS gets routed as data. Which is why I thought the Cricket APN worked for my Nexus 5.

Thank you more times than I could ever say! I have a carrier unlocked LG H830 (G5), and have spent more hours than I'd like to admit trying to get outgoing MMS to work on Cricket Wireless. You name it, I've tried it. I would never EVER have thought to change the Network Mode. That fixed it. Granted, instead of showing "LTE", it's now showing 4G (3.5G), and my data speed down is about 5MB, but Cricket throttles the down speeds anyway. And, at home on Wifi, it doesn't matter anyway. So again, thank you!
For the purposes of future Google searchers:
For outgoing MMS to work on a carrier unlocked LG H830 (LG G5), the Network Mode must be set to GSM/WCDMA.
Regards,
Mark
