[Q] Epic 4g sprint on straight talk - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all i had my epic 4g flashed to straight talk and is running cm10 but my mms doesnt work.. searching forums leads me to believe my apn settings are messed up and i need to know the apn settings for the verizon towers as my area runs on verizons towers... HELP!! ive tried all the ones i found and none work! And all the apn settings i find are for at&t towers... x.x
Or if you have a straight talk on verizon could you post your apn settings? just open voice dialer and say "open APNs" and select the only option that shows up.

htc evo reading VERIZON with metro prl

My HTC Evo is reading Verizon wireless when y dial *228 to set up the device.
the problem is I have used the metropcs prl - 0069/02001/02004 and 03011 and no matter what, it stays in roaming "Analog B" and doesnt go to metro.
Sometimes get some american blabla network.
Phone is rooted and with metrodroid 1.2
The cyanogen doesnt give me option to go to ##3424# or ##3282#
And not getting into ##775# at all.
Some help would be appreciated
the ESN is added to metropcs inventory and with a working phone number.
Need it really bad.
thanks
Double check to make sure the Metro PCS PRL sticks. Go to Settings > About Phone > Status and look under PRL.
Also, check to see if your number shows up under "My phone number."

That's strange. How about under MIN? There should be a number that looks like a phone number there.
You could also try going to the Sprint OTA and *228 from there

And when I dial *228 from the cell, verizon comes up to update or register the phone...LOL
Metro has a roaming agreement with verizon. When in one of these roaming zones or sometimes when metro is doing some system maintenance this scenario you describe will occur. When you leave that roaming zone or metro finishes with their system maintenance, whatever the case. Your phone should then just go back to working as before.

Im located in Queen-NY where there is pretty good metropcs coverage,
This is a fresh flashing, has not yet work on metro, Im still trying to get to work.
I've been trying to set it up for 4 days in a roll and its given me only headaches ..lol...
that's why I really need help here.... I have tried few ROM's but it seens to not help at all,,,
Let me ask, is that normal when I go back to QPST -> PPP Config
the Password field be empty? or should there be something that was set before?
Is the prl file to be uploaded to ROAM tab right?
what prl have anybody up running on evo metro?
The EVO will not work on NY. Since there is not PCS band in NY
NY,NJ and some others states only use AWS band which is a new frecuency band not supported by the EVO,
thats why you're on roaming, your EVO can't see any metro network even if you have the latest metro PRL

Simple Talk APN settings...mms problems

So I just left tmobile this morning and ported my number to straight talk (using an At&T micro sim card). I am having issues getting mms to work. I tried the APN settings from straight talks website but nothing worked (no data, no mms). I searched a bunch of forums and found an APN setting that gets me data, but no mms. Anyone else have the Tmobile Samsung Galaxy S3 (non LTE) that switched to Straight Talk At&t sim card and have everything working?
Thanks in advance.
Is your Data Connection working ? Ask Straighttalk for their correct APN Settings. They do control MMS.

I have data working using apn wap.tracfone
On simply talks website the apn settings don't work, no data or mms
Wap is a very ancient APN. Please call customer Service for correct settings.

FIXED! - No LTE

Hey guys. I'm kinda stuck here. I am getting no LTE service on my phone at all. Of course those idiots at straight talk keep saying im provisioned for it but nope, not getting it. I tried everything I can think of from factory resetting to apn settings and nothing. When I go into my network it bounces between HSAP and HSPAP but no LTE. I live in an LTE service area and was getting LTE up to about a week ago but then suddenly it was gone. Any ideas as to what I can do?
Can ask what are your APN settings?

The ones ST gave me.
Name - Straight Talk
APN - tfdata
MMSC - http://mms-tf.net
MMS proxy - mms3.tracfone.com
MMS port - 80
I don't understand what's goin on. It just doesn't work anymore for some reason. And ST troubleshooting is non existent. All they tell you is to put in those apn settings and it should work. Well it isn't dumbasses!....lol
Also port :80 . I have straight talk too. Your apn looks right
My wife has the Optimus g and her LTE is working just fine. WITH the same APN settings! The last thing I remember doing was going through the hidden service menu but I didn't change anything in there. There is nothing you can change in there to make your LTE stop working. I know with some phones you can but not with the OGP.

It's been over a week mervingio. And as I said, My wife's LTE is working fine on her Optimus G.
I run that apn and get late with every ROM I flash

Ok guys. I got the issue resolved. I used this method here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351041
The only issue I had was for some reason I couldn't manually edit the build.prop. I had to install JRummies Rom Toolbox Lite and that did the trick.It's so nice to have my LTE back!
Thanks for the link. Always liked to manually set to 2g or 4g when lte was weak. One reason I always installed custom roms and didn't stick to stock.

Personally I don't worry too much about it. Being on stock with this phone gets great battery life. So no need to turn off the LTE to conserve battery.

Sprint on Virgin Mobile MMS

So there's a lot of people that have problems getting MMS working on Sprint S3's flashed to Virgin Mobile, and there's a lot of people trying different messaging apps and APN's. Well none of it works for me, and it seems like for most people too, and I think I know what could be causing it, but don't know how to fix it.
First, if you use the dialer code ##3282#, and edit the MMSC URL, it doesn't save it.
Second, all of the APN's are for LTE and eHRPD, and I think the phone is trying to send and/or receive MMS through only LTE/eHRPD and not through EVDO. Most phones people use as donor's are not compatible with these newer protocols and only use EVDO.
I tried using the APN from my evo 3d donor and it doesn't work.
So does anyone know how I can make the MMSC URL stick in ##3282"?
Have you tried *#*#4636#*#* and selecting CDMA auto (prl) ...as a non sprint user on my sprint s3 that works for me but does not stick after a reboot...have to change every time device is rebooted

I'm on a VM rom and that code doesn't work. Under ##3282#, More, HDR/1X Selection, i've changed it to "EVDO Only Mode"
Ah ok...I'm using liquid ROM....that code works on all aosp based ROMs though...not touchwiz...better off on a custom ROM if not sprint

I need your S4 data T-Mobile settings

I have a Sprint L720 Galaxy S4 that I am currently using with Metro PCS/T-Mobile. I have the correct APN settings, I can make and receive calls just fine. I can send texts and MMS just fine and receive texts as well. I can not receive MMS messages or texts with picture attachments.
I looked in the ##DATA# menu or ##3282# menu as I have my MSL number. If anybody here has used the L720 or nearly any fairly new Android with T-Mobile/MetroPCS can you please give me your working settings from the data menu?
I looked through the entire data menu and it is filled with Sprint.com this and sprint/mms/server that etc. I tried changing the most obvious things to T-Mobile's settings, but I know I am missing the crucial settings to allow me to send and receive texts with photo attachments. I tried the METROPCS fix here in the forums for the L720, but the files give errors when installing. I am certain that manually entering the settings from someone else's phone will work. There are a lot of settings in the ##DATA# menu, but it would take maybe five minutes to copy them down.
I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me their working info. T-Mobile said they simply do not have time to look those up as the data menu is too specific. The phones in the stores are not rooted not do they have the dialer app installed to get me to the data menu.
Thank you very much.
Sprint L720 (not T)
Android 4.4.2
MetroPCS/T-Mobile provider
All you need are a few settings. Name the connection T-Mobile
Under APN input fast.tmobile.com
MMC 310
MNC 260
Everything else should be automatically filled in. Just input those settings and you're now able to connect to T-Mobiles LTE data.

I sincerely appreciate your response but I have since learned that the Sprint motherboard simply can not use all of the T-Mobile frequencies for LTE data. I was getting H+ which was not bad but I was hoping for more than the board was capable of.

My apologies was not reading carefully. Sprint's Mobile APN settings are different:
