Hi guys,
My question is as follows... I have in my possession a galaxy s3 with Korean SK Telecom ( the one with the antenna). When i put in my att sim it works just to make calls and txt but i cant use the browser or navigate. Is there any solution so that i can use it with att?
Thank you!
Have you checked your APN settings?

*Search before posting*
APN settings can be found under: Settings -> Mobile Network -> Access Point Names
Make sure it matches the AT&T APN (which you'll find with a search).

I have a telus 989 that is unlocked I use with a different carrier. I have to delete the Telus apn to send mms. you couldn't delete it manually so I used to use APN Backup and Restprehttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore. now that i have ics that app does not work anymore.
what are my options?

nevermind found out for those who also need this info
settings-wireless and netoworks-more settings-mobile networksaccess
So you were able to backup and restore your apn settings there?
You can jot them down from there and manually input them as need which is what I prefer, but if you want an app to do it for you...

There's an app called APN BACKUP in market.

You can do it in the programming menu. It's been so long since I've done this for friends, I'd have to research it myself for awhile. On the ROM I'm running I can go to settings>more>mobile settings>access point names.

Hey Noon guy here. Did you ever get the setting/APN you where looking for? If so, could you please help me with my Galaxy Nexus LTE-Sprint. I am having trouble getting OTA to go through. I thinking if I set the APN it may possibly activate over the air.

Try the update.
your lte settings are still wrong you know that right? and some of those carriers dont use sprint network... so your network numeric is also wrong, oh yea and stealing someone elses script and just changing the names is not cool. while we do appreciate you working out the mms addresses for other carriers giving credit where credit is due is a must and there is more to it than that

So I just flashed the newest update and all my APNs are gone. I'm on 4.3 Stock Deodexed ROM.
this isnt the stock version i dont think, it seems he grabbed our cm/aosp version. if youre using virgin mobile though you are in luck, the original mod is over at androidforums

Hi everyone.
I was hoping someone would be in the know in terms of figuring out a way to change network mode on the new stock ATT kitkat rom. I am currently on Tmobile and heavily depended on the ability to change network mode to GSM/WCDMA preferred or auto on JB. I managed to enable this previously hidden menu by altering the build.prop file ro.networkmode to enable.
Unfortunately, now, even after making that same quick edit with text editor, the menu is no longer available and i'm stuck on weak LTE signals for calls.
If anyone knows a work around, or a step that I am missing please fill me in!
Thanks!!

so there is no work around or additional build.prop edit to make?
I changed ro.build.target_operator = TLS and enabled ro.networkmode and it works

TLS does work but it will also disable tethering and I need them to both work

yup, can confirm tethering no longer works but in my case it's the lesser of two evils. Would be great if both could fully function though.
Why not use another KK Rom like XitRom or RadeonMaya both are simply phenomenal ?

Hmmm why does this work? Operator tls = telstra? Aussie provider? I need to do some prop digging.

hi sir
i dont know what im doing wrong. i edit the build.prop but there is no change and i check and the file is edited so i dont know what to do
Do you have root?
Try a different build prop editor
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=build prop
Also try to change ro.build.target_operator = OPEN and enabled ro.networkmode and it works

Not working for me either i'm using FX editor with root add on. i double checked and it's edited to what i want and i still don't get networkin selection mode.
I used "build prop editor" changed
ro.build.target_operator=ATT to
ro.build.target_operator=OPEN.
And can change my network mode.
It also got rid of ATT in status bar changed to 4G icon.
Only negative outcome was sub tethering was disabled also. But I never use that feature.
