If you have LTE Sim you could use "pta" apn
Is there a difference from a 3g Sim and a 4g Sim because I had a atrix before which was 4g

Yes, I think 4g LTE uses different sim. You also have to have the right plan code on your account. Since you owned Atrix before, you should be good to use pta APN. Check the thread I pointed to before.

Screenshot attached says GSM/LTE 3
network monitor shows 2G, 3G and 4G (HSPAP)
The N7100 will not work with AT&T LTE. HSPA+ is the best you'll get with this device.

You are using 4G if that makes you feel better
4G being AT&T's marketing scheme for HSPA+ of course.

What is the difference between 4G and lte?

Depending on your local about 30Mbps in download speed. HSPA+ is what AT&T calls 4G, but it's actually known as faux G. LTE is the new standard for high speed mobile data.

Noticed over the last few weeks some MMS issue's with my phone and many others in my area; e.g. sending/receiving, etc. A phone reset or quick airplane mode would fix for a few days then suddenly startup again after a few days.
Problem occurred again today and while I was trying to determine what the problem was noticed my APN was now "phone" versus the previously default "pta". Checked with the wife and a few friends and all were changed.... funny thing is, only Samsung phones are seeing the change as far as I can tell. HTC, etc are still using "pta"... possibly related to the JB update?
Called AT&T and after a very long discussion and escalation, it appears they are in the process of a natation wide migration from "pta" to "phone".
On a side note, manually creating a new "pta" APN still works and I don't see any speed, signal difference between the two, but according to AT&T this APN will slowly going away.
Would be interesting to hear from others what your APN is set to and whether you're on JB or ICS.
I can confirm on ICS it was the pta APN, but when I updated to jelly bean it switched to phone. I believe the settings are the same for both though.

Can you post the APN settings? My phone is still defaulting to WAP.Cingular until I create a pta APN. I'd like to try the phone APN.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
You should be able to restore defaults and force it to pull in the default APN its picking up, if you're not getting the proper APN I would check your account to confirm its been properly provisioned for LTE.
It's literally just "phone"... similar to before the pta APN was created, but with a few changes.

Yes, I still see quite a few references to the "pta" APN, so its obviously something new.
Running JB here and have the phone apn also. Wife is still on ICS, and she has the pta apn. So it has to be jelly bean related.
Phone here as well.

Mine says PTA, and I have JB 4.1.1. I am on the unlimited plan, so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
So, what's the difference?
I am running 4.1.2 JB and still on pta.
Interesting. It was always assumed that switching from pta to phone turned off LTE. I suppose that isn't the case anymore. I think it's great news considering we don't need 4-5 APN's on one carrier. It gets a little ridiculous.

No, I don't think "phone" APN means no LTE. I looked at an AT&T store at the HTC One X and it had the APN sent to "pta", while the newer HTC One X+ had it set to "phone". Both showed a 4G LTE connection and gave about the same speedtest results. Also, from talking to AT&T tech support I was told "pta" was old, the new devices come configured with "phone" as the APN and that's what I want. I'd otherwise take the info from AT&T tech support with a big grain of salt given that many of their people say funny things most of the time, but after seeing the default settings on the HOX+ this fellow may have been correct.
I'd still love to know what the differences between pta and phone APNs are, if any.
I only get lte when putting in pta APN.

Phone here also on JB
LG Optimus G is also set to "phone". It sounds like "phone" is the way to go these days.
I dont know about everyone but in Los Angeles I'm lucky if I can get 5mpbs at LTE.
I read in the forum about how other people's lte speed is around 15-20mpbs.
I dont know if they only giving me that speed cause I still have unlimited data plan or if Los Angeles speed sucks in general
I have the unlimited plan also, im in south Florida and mostly i get around 30down 20up. My apn also defaulted to phone, but for some reason I do get slightly better speeds on the pta apn.

I would like to get the gs3 but would like to know some things before i get it....Will the at&t version of the gs3 work if i have straight talk on t-mobile's network?
The at&t S3 (i747) is a GSM phone so it will work on both straight talk and t-mobile. You will just have to add in the correct apns
thanx

No problemo. I'm sure you understand you won't see LTE (unless you're in one of t-mobile's few areas). Cheers, buddy
It'll work but I think that you'll only get EDGE speeds. I just ordered a straight talk T-Mobile sim and will be here tomorrow so I'll let you know if I'm right or wrong.
No, he will get 3G and HSPA+
ok i look forward to the feedback thanks

I activated it earlier today and I have a 'g' symbol instead of the regular 4G I would always see. So I'm guessing that's EDGE?

So I had a stock 4.3 mk6 then I decided to root and unlock my phone for the T-Mobile network. When I Odin back to 4.1.1 I unlocked everything went smooth and I did the aws mod, and was getting LTE with T-Mobile. So then I root it again Odin the 4.3 param. Tz to flash a 4.3 ROM. After the flash I don't get LTE no more. Went back to 4.1.1 to see if I would get it nothing again. So now I'm stuck with 4G and haven't gotten LTE since the first time I unlocked it.
So anybody know how to get T-Mobile LTE back on my AT&T note 2.?

Check the Phone status for a true indication of your connection. Depending on which ROM you flashed the icons will vary. Some of the ROMs that are N7105-based show 4G but mean LTE.

Yeah I do it only says HSPA no LTE. And In notifications it goes from h to h+ never 4g and I have DN3 ROM right now. With mk6 modem with no AWS mod.
Guessing you have the proper APN set? I get LTE on both epc.tmobile.com and fast.tmobile.com. Running SkyNote Air with AWS Mod.

DN3 Rom is based, off of the N7105 NOTE 2 that's the reason you don't see LTE. If you see 4G that means LTE in this ROM. I am also using this ROM with at&t and whenever I get LTE speed it shows 4G.
You can change it by changing your build prop setting to get lte. But if you do then your contacts will force close and I also read in DN3 thread that you will lose your phone app/dialer and have to use play store dialer.

Yeah for dn3 if it shows 4g it is lte. Because of the ROM's data icons being international. Mine is just showing h to h+. :-[

That 4g icon on the DN3 is LTE. It's that way because it's based off of the international firmware...
Just a reminder you can check you LTE connection by going to:
Setting, General, about phone, status, check connection there.

Check APN settings. Also, do you have Network Mode as "LTE/WCDMA/GSM". Even I was not getting LTE initially but then I tried different APN settings and finally I am getting LTE.
