I have used straight talk since I had my Oneplus One and always used AT&T towers. I've always received 4G LTE with that device. Since recently purchasing the Oneplus 3 and activating my new AT&T sim from straight talk, I have only gotten 3G with straight talks recommended APN settings. After spending hours on the phone with straight talk reassuring my phone has LTE capabilities.
I did do research about this problem and it looks like AT&T does not recognize this IMEI as an LTE compatible phone. After attempting to tell straight talk to try and activate my IMEI as an LTE compatible device, they sent me to AT&T. Which after being bounced around multiple times, even to some number that just gave me ads. They finally just told me they can not do anything because I have a straight talk account.
I then threw this sim card into multiple devices and received 4G on all of them.
So long story short, if anyone has had any experience or advice with this problem please comment otherwise I'm just going to change service providers... F*** Straight Talk.
I used to get a Straight Talk SIM for summer motorcycle trips. I have T-Mobile and after ATT tried to buy them, my phone didn't have service in lots of places that it did before.
Now I notice that ATT has the same $45/month pre-paid plan that I used to get on Straight Talk. You might try that one and see if it works for you.
I have straight talk AT&T with no problems. I had to try a few APN to get one that worked. I just Google Straight Talk AT&T APN settings. They are a lot to try. Try one and wait 5 to 10. It takes time for the new APN to kick in. Once it goes LTE, it will go straight to it now. It is not straight talk issue it is AT&T issue. They give MVNO providers low priority. That is why it takes time to get it to go LTE. I will take screen shot of my settings to see if they work for you.

Thanks, but no go. After testing settings, I flashed Freedom OS and it shows HSPA+. with both the settings you provided and the ones straight talk specifically provided me.
I did do a speed test and got 194ms ping, 5.26mb download and 1.34mb upload if anyone can compare.

Tried these settings already, after allowing hours for it to turn to 4G and multiple reboots. I'm still left with HSPA+. I'm quickly thinking this could be a modem hardware issue. I've tried installing most of the custom Roms available and as soon as I connect to a wifi network it restarts the phone and will keep restarting as soon as it connects to a wifi network . The only Roms that work are oxygen and freedom os. ��
There shouldn't be any difference between straight talk and legacy AT&T. Did you try running the phone using AT&T APN settings Instead if straight talk?
For what's it's worth, I have AT&T and I've had trouble with the hand-off from 3G to LTE. I live in an area without LTE but can drive in any direction half a mile and get LTE. The same thing was true with my LG3, but the hand-off was seamless.
T-mobile has enhanced LTE in my area and I'm now testing straight talk T-mobile in my second SIM slot.
It automatically loaded the T-mobile APNs and they work, as does straight talk.
I'm getting 2 bars of T-mobile LTE now and so there is no hand-off issue.
If all goes well for a month, I'll dump AT&T and either stay with straight talk or move to T-mobile.

I share the same problem, OnePlus 3t on straight talk using at&t sim card. I can only get H+ on the status bar. Speed test max speeds of 10Mbps, usually around 6-7Mbps. I have scoured the internet for a solution to no avail. Tried swapping the sim card from my son's Galaxy S4 on the same network, but still H+ only. Both sim cards pull 30-50Mbps lte speeds in the S4. Both sim cards pull 4-6Mbps in the 3t. S4 is rooted running synergy mod flawlessly. I tried every apn on the internet. Even flashed back to stock rooted from lineage Pie. Entered the phone information page from the dialer menu. Lte physical configuration is blank?
Called straight talk, but their system hangs up on you when you get transfered to the department with some expertise, if that really exists there? None of my efforts got me lte. I really like this phone, this issue makes me feel like ditching the high-end garbage for something old but reliable. Makes no sense why so many 3t users get 4g lte with no problem, but then a few of us don't? See the screenshot of phone information.

So I got this to work but all I get is 1x . Is there anyway to get full 3g?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The verizon prl should give you full 3g, that's the point of it. If you are only getting 1x, either verizon doesnt have 3g where you are, or you are still on a sprint prl and roaming on verizon, which would only give you 1x.
I try *2 and I just get the Sprint thingy that checks the network. I'm on prl 0001. But this seems like I am still on Sprint.

Go ahead and do this if you really want, i highly recommend against it. All your doing is installing a force roam. If you flash 0001.prl you will always be roaming. I flashed it about 6 months ago, and everything was good for a few months, until sprint sent me a letter saying my account was being cancelled because a certain percentage of my data was roaming. If you look on your contract, even though it may say unlimited roaming, sprint still reserves the right to end your service if you go over 5Gb of roaming data or a certain percentage of your data is roaming.
I did eventually get them to not cancel my account, but my phone number remains on a list of numbers that they monitor that have gone over their roaming within the last 6 months (even though my roaming is supposedly unlimited). They do automated checks of that list and my phone gets turned off about once a week, meaning i have to call and deal with customer service constantly.
Think about whats going on here for a second. Verizon and sprint have agreements that let sprint users roam on verizon 1x services, NOT 3G. Everytime your phone downloads data from a verizon tower verizon sends sprint the bill. Once sprint realizes your phone number is causing them to pay massive fees to verizon theyre going to cancel your account. it doesnt matter if your choose home only in roaming options, because since you have installed a verizon PRL your phone thinks verizon IS home.
I fully understand what I am doing... as long as I stuck with this crappy Sprint service I will use this, and if they do cancel then I will just sign with Verizon directly ...

Are you going for coverage or speed? 00001.prl will probably increase your coverage significantly, it definitely did for me. But as far as speed goes, verizon is definitely slower than sprint. Thats my personal experience and has been confirmed by quite a few studies ive seen online. Also if you use speedtest.net frequently you'll see that with 00001.prl your latency (time it takes the signal to travel) increases dramatically.
So how do you put a sprint PRL back after a few months?

Have you read the Verizon prl thread? It tells you this on the first post. Just flash back to a sense rom (if you already arent) and update the prl through the menu. This will put you back on a sprint prl.
I've never had an issue with sprint busting my chops over roaming... been running prl hack for a long time with roaming data at least up to 5gb with some as high as 10gb..

I really want to keep this phone, so please help me out, lol. I am in an extended network area for Verizon. My Gnex drops 3g and it will not come back for hours or longer. The phone will show a signal, full bars -75 signal strength, but the 3g icon will not be there, so no email, speed test, web browsing.
I tried two gnex's and sim cards. The Rezound I have works perfect right next to the gnex, so I don't know what to think? They are both on the same prl. I called verizon, but they are no help, pull battery, factory reset, ect. I tried all the radio's I can find, tried three roms.
I am at a loss, if I can't figure it out I will be forced to live with a rezound for the next two years, help please, thanks.........Brian

Shot in the dark here, but did you enable Data Roaming in the Mobile Network settings? When I was in Indiana a while back (when I still used my Nexus One on T-Mo) it wouldn't use data until I turned on roaming. Which is kinda silly, because that setting is meant for international roaming, but then again America isn't a typical wireless market.
Yes, that and automatic, tried lte/cdma, and cdma only. Tried all the normal stuff, pulling the sim card, ect. It is weird these phones do this, but the rezound just plain works.........
Nothing? Amazon just sent me a brand new Rezound to try, but I really like the gnex, but I need good data. Thanks..........Brian

Automatic is the right setting.
Radio could matter.
LTE/CDMA shouldn't matter.
ROM doesn't matter (at all).
Dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone information and post a screenshot (scroll down just enough to move the IMEI/MEID and your Phone number out of view to save yourself from some post-editing).

I have the exact same issue. I live in a 3G Extended Network area. Data on Droid X worked fine. Got Galaxy Nexus knowing I wouldn't have 4G (3G has been perfect for me). I was out of town when I got it in a Verizon Network. Drove home and...well...no data on Galaxy Nexus. Told Verizon tier 2, and they said it was a "known issue". I've flashed all radios and combinations and nothing has worked yet.
There isn't much you can do, but I bet if you petition/complain enough VZW could actually expand the network. Get others in your area to call in about it. You can't really blame the phone, even if the Rezound is working correctly.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue. I'm also in an extended coverage only area and tend to have 6 or 7 hour stretches of no data. I've gotten two nexuses and neither has been better than the other. Previously had a Droid that never lost signal. As far as getting them to expand their network here, it won't happen because of some stupid municipal law in the county I live in that only allows a certain number of wireless providers and vzw was late to the party. In my case, I'm holding out hope that my situation will improve when the provider here (Cellcom) lunches their 4g network in q2 since they are one of the rural roaming partners for verizon.
Hi Everyone.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 unlocked, stock ROM and rooted. When i used the phone with Rogers it showed 4G. Now with Bell it shows H+.
I am ok with H+ because as i understand this is very similar to Roger's 4G. However, I have never gotten LTE on my phone.
Is there a way to enable this? I have checked the APN settings and they seem to be correct as per this forum.
Any ideas? Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks
Michael
I would make sure that the sim card you have says LTE on it (happened to me that they gave me the wrong one)
Outside of that I would recommend going to a strong LTE area and try to force LTE.
to do that go to your dialer
type *#2263#
Select LTE then LTE All, once you catch on to LTE go back into that menu and select Automatic
Have you confirmed your network speed with speedtest?
Thanks for the responses.
y2whisper: My sim card doesn't say LTE on it. It's a nanosim card that i had from my iPhone 4S. I was told the same sim card would work perfectly. I also tried that in the dialer and I selected LTE. It disabled my data and eventually i lost signal, no LTE signal came on. As soon as i put it back on automatic, it connected back to Bell with H+.
mrhaley30705: i did a speed test. It registered my download speed at 4757kbps and upload at 2398kbps
How does this fair?
Thoughts?
I was originally given the wrong sim card as well. Took a couple days to realize it. Went back into Best Buy where I got the phone and had it replaced. LTE fired right up. As to your speeds, depending upon your location, you could possibly add a zero to the end of those speeds and that's how much faster LTE could be. Here is mine but my area doesn't have the best LTE speeds.

Bell uses different micro sims for lte than the one you used for your 4s. Bell stores sell em for 5 bucks, but you can usually get them to give it to you for free.

yeah it would work perfectly minus the LTE ability. yeah get a new sim and call bell. Some bell stores try to charge you a courtesy fee to activate it. don't pay it.
thanks everyone for your help.
Switching SIM cards did it. Now instead of 3000-5000kbps on 3G i am getting LTE speeds of 30000 - 42000kbps.
Thanks

I bought a Bell S3 I747M and unlocked it to use on Fido, had to use the right APN settings plus using this trick to get it work.
I've never in m whole life used a gsm phone. I have the unlocked nexus and got myself tmobile service. It was the best coverage for the cost. But it seems my data speeds are sh*tty. Everything is super slow. Do I have to configure my phone for proper use with tmo? Everything seems to be OK except data. I've checked coverage I'm all green everywhere, doesn't make sense.

have you tested the speed in another location? example if that test was done at home, do one at work/school and compare
if it is just as slow you can try flashing a different radio..
i have generally been getting about 3-10 mbps depending on where i am/time of test...faster speeds as it gets later (network traffic slows down quite a bit at night around 10pm-midnight)
Somethings not right there. Did you just activate the service? Sometimes it can take a couple days for everything to get squared away on T-Mobile's end.
Also, have you double checked your APN settings to make sure everything is in order?
I'd also try some reboots and airplane cycles to make sure its connecting. Although it looks like you've got full HSPA+ connectivity. It could also just be a fluke with the tower you're on or the speedtest server you're testing on.

I'm not bootloader unlocked or even rooted for that matter. When I do I will play around with radios. I even tried googling a way to force 3g instead of HSPA+ to make sure it wasn't the tower. No luck yet. I did a speed test at my home and it was the same. The speed test I posted was at work.

APNs seem right from what I can remember.
I think you either have a SIM problem, a tower problem, or data hasn't been activated properly on your account. I'd give it another full day (T-Mo can be slow to activate fully), and if its not working, call and tell them your phone's data speed is extremely slow. They can try to reset it on their end (or send new SIM) or check for a tower issue.
Did you get the 200MB plan and use it all up? Because they throttle you when you use it all up. Them look like throttled speeds to me.
Or maybe, they are throttling you by mistake...
Also, have you restarted your phone?
Power it off for a bit. Pull the battery... then start it back up. I've seen that fix MANY things, and it's easy.

So its been about three days and its still the same. I flashes a few different radio firmwares and I found one that will give me anywhere from .1 to .3Mbps down. I have opened a ticked with T-Mobile thinking it may be the tower(s) in my town. Haven't heard back yet but I want to keep this updated. If it doesn't work out I will probably end up going with an at&t mnvo

The same things is with my phone. Three days since activation and data speeds are 1x slow. It's time to play with radios
I've tried more radios than I can count. So I ordered an st att sim and got it activated today. There is a huuuge difference from .05 tmo to 3.5 att st so I guess even if coverage is good and they say its fine there are some places where the actual back haul of the network is seriously lacking. If it still doesn't work for you go ahead and try a different provider. Made a world of difference for me.

For those of you using AT&T. Do not update your IMEI at this time and hope that the system doesn't auto update it. LTE is not supported on the OP3. I am currently stuck on 4G due to this problem.
I have opened a ticket to get the OP3 registered. I will date back here.
My ATT service is perfect with LTE.
Update your APN's
Nextgenphone and ATT Phone. The network is blocking LTE access. Your IMEI hasn't updated yet. Mine worked fine for a few hours.
I work in a cor AT&T store. There were features removed when I changed my IMEI. Once AT&T updates their IMEI database it'll be fine.
I've had the phone since noon on Friday and still no issues with AT&T. I have not called to change IMEI.

I am having same problem, my two devices are stuck in HSPA mode. I spent over an hour online chat with AT&T to no resolution. They tried but could not understand the problem. I had the phones activated at corporate store today too. Hopefully this problem gets resolved soon.
Guys don't bother with the att reps. Most of them have no idea what they are doing with an iPhone let alone anything else. The worst thing you can do is call them for help.
I agree with zelendel even though I work for the company. I am sure I'm not the only person who has opened a ticket to the OP3 added. In the mean time if you call customer service and just ask them to have a manager approve adding the nextgenphone apn to your line then it will fix the issue temporarily. I have LTE back for the time being.
How temporarily is the fix? And is there an eta on when att will fix the problem? I will be returning this phone if I can't use LTE on it.
So will this phone be updated and approved to receive LTE in the future by att? This is kind of a major deal if not.

Too late for it to be approved. This is one of the things you learn to deal with when you buy China based devices. They don't get approved by the Fcc which in turn causes issues with LTE and what not.

So because of you I should expect to see a text from AT&T saying they've detected that I'm using a smartphone and have added an expensive data plan? Great.
Pretty sure you just needed to use the right APN.

Pretty sure I know the right APN. What plan are you on that's worth saving...senior talk 200? That's the only plan in the last 10 years that's cheaper than any new plan which all include data. Please don't be a **** because you didn't have a problem. Others will and when they do its nice to help them understand what's wrong.
im on at&t go and it worked out of the box with LTE.
if what the OP said is true, u can get another IMEI that uses a nano sim card and then call att to activate that IMEI with att and then just reinsert the sim into the OP3 without calling, I did not update IMEI either but i do have a little issues with downloading things it switches back and forth quickly between 4+ and LTE but still get good speeds
Just opened my OP3 an hour ago and put my ATT nano sim in.

Yeah my LTE worked fine for at least 5 hours after I changed the IMEI. I was at work on WiFi so I don't know when it quit exactly. Even putting my sim back in a recognized device yielded no data. Called in got the nextgenphone added to my line, LTE came back. The problem with using another IMEI is sooner or later the system will update and you end up with no data.

Changing the IMEI is not only illegal but can also cause other issues with the device it's self.

if what the OP said is true, u can get another IMEI that uses a nano sim card and then call att to activate that IMEI with att and then just reinsert the sim into the OP3 without calling, I did not update IMEI either but i do have a little issues with downloading things it switches back and forth quickly between 4+ and LTE but still get good speeds

The IMEI will be updated when they scan the network which they do from time to time.

So because of you I should expect to see a text from AT&T saying they've detected that I'm using a smartphone and have added an expensive data plan? Great.
Pretty sure you just needed to use the right APN.

Well considering what you are doing is fraud that is on you.
also try to go to the AT&T Phone APN not the ATT Nextgenphone
