Why is my unlocked and rooted Nexus 5X APN Settings grayed out until I install my gemalto USIM, then it disappears? Was forced to use adb to setup by apn parameters. Is there another way to get APN settings on the UI?

i know there isnt a toggle for turning of lte on the at&t variant but i thought there was some work arounds to this. can someone please post the steps to do this?
There's fairly simple instruction for this not only on xda, but on multiple other sites as well. Have you heard of Google?
In short - change APN settings.

actually theres a better way, if you're on CM10 or AOKP dial *#*#4636#*#* and choose WCDMA only or WCDMA Preferred. This will prevent the phone from trying to use LTE as its default network.

I thought that no matter what, for att users it always reverted back...
I tried going back to the wap.cingular apn but my phone would lose signal everynow and then..

It doesnt if you're on AOKP at least for my ATT it doesnt, if I set it to WCDMA preferred as it is by default I never see LTE, even with the PTA APN selected, and I know LTE is active in my area because on stock and CM10 I default to it and get upwards of 30-40 Mbps

Theres also a way if you have root to create the new APN and have it stick (reason it doesnt stick is because PTA is set as default and because you cant change it reverts back to PTA). I'll give the steps I took to allow me to edit my PTA APN. again remember you need root. (also sqlite)
1. Using root explorer (or similar) navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony>databases>nwk_info.db
2. Tap on Carriers
3. Select line for AT&T PTA 310/410 scroll all the way to the right and under editable put a 1
4. Do the same for ATT Entitlement
5. Go to the PTA APN Menu>Settings>More Settings>Mobile Network> Access Point Names
6. In the PTA APN delete the values in the "APN type" field (this will prevent the phone from defaulting back to this APN)
7. Create new APN

Only down side to this is that the phone will periodically drop ALL signal but then gains it back withing 15-20 seconds. I'm also still looking for a way to enable the "Network operators" selection through root explorer (I imagine it to be in a similar place as the APN settings). Any help from someone more knowledgeable than me is appreciated. Hope this helps. Also below is a link to where I posted working USSD (MMI) codes that I found. Maybe something can be discovered in those.

Hi.
I have a HTC marvelc PG762 from MetroPCs, actually I've changed my carrier and I had to program my phone to get signal with my new carrier but i can't use internet serivces, I tried to set the APN of my new carrier but I can't found the menu to do that, I tried with some apps (APN Changer, APN switch, APN selector) and i only got issues.
what's the problem?
P.S: My phone is CDMA.
thanks.
Anyone have this phone and is using the device here in the US? I bought mine in the Philippines and now I'm back in the US. When I try to use my AT&T SIM card, the data is not working (making/receiving calls works). What I noticed is that I don't see a default APN appearing on the settings. I manually added APN I copied from my Nexus 4, but still no go. It does work with my T-Mobile SIM, and there are actually several default APN appearing on the settings.
Thanks.
Yo!
In the past, on this Note II, I was able to go into the APN settings and setup the APN as I preffered it.
Now, whenever I go to change the APN settings, all the options in the provided APN (T-Mobile US) are greyed out. If I try to create a new APN, the T-Mobile US APN stays active (even after reboot). I cannot delete the T-Mobile US APN either.
Is there a way to 'unlock' the T-Mobile US APN for editing, or even delete it?
Thanks in advance!

I remember there used to be an app called "APN manager" should do it for you....search on play store...
Hello.
I have a Note 3 with a Note 7 port (stock rom without modifications). My phone has some network problems that for some reason force me to set only 1 custom APN in the APN settings and delete all the others (inlcuding those default ones that appear when you reset preferences) for it to work with data. I've never had problems doing so with Note 3 software or custom softwares like LineageOS but I can't do anything with the Note 7 port. I want to ask here first before talking to the port's dev.
If you go into the APN settings and check the ones you have there, scrolling down, can you turn them on/off or is the option grayed out? If it is grayed, how can you enable it?
Can you delete default APN or just the ones you manually add?
