I recently switched carriers. From Verizon, I went to T-Mobile. As expected, I'm already having issues. I can RECEIVE texts, but cannot send them on 4G LTE (only when I unexpectedly get "H+"). I can also access the internet. I have contacted T-Mobile, but honestly, they don't seem to care about my issue. I already manually changed the APN. The only thing I can think of is that my phone is currently on Lollipop, which is not yet supported by T-Mobile. Could this be the root of all this? Any help would be appreciated.

Same problem here. I was able to root, and installed the stang5litre Edition 5.0 ROM.
With a t-mobile sim card, everything works for me - Data, Voice, Wifi, and incoming texts, but NOT outgoing texts.
I'm baffled by this....
the creator of the ROM suggested I try to swap out the SMS apk file and reflash the ROM.
Has anyone figured this out?

Hey guys. I've been able to flash the Verizon prl's on my phone but have the same issue with them. They all work great (data is awesome) but I am unable to send or receive texts while roaming. I've played with the roaming settings but nothing works. I am able to get calls and make them. Any ideas?

MMS not working
Hi, I received my device a few weeks ago, direct from T-Mobile as a replacement, and immediately used the motochopper method on my mac to gain root on my SIII with LTE. I am not running any custom roms. Yet I cannot send a MMS message. It just spins forever; trying to send. I have verified that my micro SIM card works properly and my device has the correct APN settings according to T-Mobile USA (I have tried both fast.t-mobile.com and epc.tmobile.com without any luck). I have uninstalled AdAway and turned off CPU Tuner, LBE Privacy Guard, and Lookout. The only other rooted apps I have installed are BusyBox, SuperSU, Greenify, AutoKiller Memory Optimizer, Mobile ODIN, ROM Manager, SystemHelper, Titanium Backup, Delayed Lock, and Voodoo OTA RootKeeper. Is there an app that can assess my configurations to determine what is causing the MMS failure? I do not believe the device is faulty. I tried using Go SMS Pro and Handcent SMS with out any luck as well. Thanks in advance!
I would start over. Back up your important data and factory reset (you wont lose root). I have a feeling it may have something to do with one or more of the apps you just listed, like LBE, auto killer, etc or possibly a combination of them. Start completely clean and test if you can send/receive normally. If so, install one app at a time testing each one.
If it continues w/o any apps installed, then call T-Mobile and ask them to reset your account. See if they have any ideas if that doesnt work. Id also replace the sim at a T-Mobile store. Theyll swap for free if yours could be faulty.

Have you tried changing the apns?
Might call tmo and check if it's been blocked.
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
Wouldn't be able to send/ receive calls/ SMS if it was blocked. Verify apns, if the person you bought it from wasn't previously using it with the carrier you're currently using it with, they'd be wrong.
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
Go under settings, more network, mobile network, then access point and see if there is a tmobile apn listed. If so make sure it's listed. If not, then menue and reset to default. That should work.

I'm having this same problem. Is there a way to fix this without being rooted? I really don't want to root and deal with the little problems that root gives you.
My girlfriend just got the s4 from her mom, it's originally a Verizon phone but it's unlocked. She put in her t mobile sim and everything else works fine, calling, receiving calls, receiving text, Internet. But as soon as she tries to send out a text, it fails everytime instantly. She tried calling t mobile and visiting the store but they were no help. Anyone know how to fix this?

This happened to me when I first used a Sprint Galaxy S4 and then took it to MetroPCS. I had to enter the APN info for T-Mobile and then set the APN as active. go to settings,more networks, mobile networks, access point names and create your new APN by tapping the PLUS sign. Save by tapping the bottom left hand button.

Did the Verizon phone save your APN? I know for a fact that SPRINT phones are stuffed full of proprietary references to Sprint servers.

I'm pretty sure it did, I'll try it again. Even the t mobile employees tried the same while at the store.

Is your phone rooted? If so, I would try Titanium Backup and try freezing an app called VZWSetup. I did something similar on my wife's S3 and it worked well for using the phone with other carriers.........

Along with the APN, make sure the Message Center number is the correct one for T-Mobile: +12063130004
This should be in the Messaging app under Settings.

I am glad the last responder brought this up. Sometimes you will see proprietary Verizon and Sprint APPS that will not allow you to change the Voicemail either. If there is a Verizon Voicemail program I would freeze it too. As far as rooting your phone? No big deal.
