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?
I have an LG G5 LS992 from Sprint. I bought that phone in the USA. Now I need to use it in Spain. Sprint said they unlocked the phone. I am using Vodafone carrier. When I inserted the SIM card, Vodafone ES is recognized. I can do and receive calls, but I do not have internet. Any solution to that problem?

Use the hidden call menu apk to get into apn settings and set up apn? Have you done this yet?

Hi, thanks.
Yes, I have done a new APN and is still not working.
I also tried the different options in the submenu System Selection. Also, I enabled all possible bands in the Hidden Menu.

Try to dial ##3282# and navigate to view apn settings, reset to default and it should auto adjust to your sim att phones are a pain with updates if you're not on their Network

Thanks but I have done that and now can't send attachments with texts and still can't edit or add a new apn. The ebay seller agreed to take it back so I will try the att version.

I did get the android 10 update and now the hot spot is not working. I tried using the settings database editor to change the value of the tethering entitlement setting, but apparently it's not working with android 10...Any suggestions or should I just get rid of this att g8 too?
I’m in the U.K. and recently bought a secondhand LG G7 smart phone that has been unlocked from T-Mobile. Since it’s now unlocked I put in my 3 mobile sim and I am able to make phone calls but I cannot go on the internet even though data is enabled. I then get APN details from 3 mobile to enter and I save the new APN and restart the phone but I am still not able to get on the internet on the phone. Please advise.
