Are you sure Simple Mobile doesn't use T-Mobile's network? I'm in Canada so I have no idea.
yah they do but i get dropped data when they switch back or most of the times it doesnt work until i put it back to the simple apn

Which one is it? You say that it doesn't work without TMobile's APN in the first post and in the second you say it works only without Tmobile's APN.... Anyway, I know that here in Canada, Virgin Mobile uses Bell's network, and so you need to use Bell's APNs.
the problem is that it doesnt matter what apn you ad ... the phone restores back to the orighinal apn that came with the phone which is t-mobile's apn
What rom you use.

Yah you need to root and maybe use apn back/restore see if that does the trick... If your stock then try custom rom they usually have. Simples apn built in to choose from

I doubt that, I have a TMobile branded phone and use it on WIND everyday without a hitch
I have my phone rooted with cm7 1.0.1 .. some times all my apn's just get deleted by itself and I have to hit reset to default apn then I have to manually enter them in agian

My wife's G2X (on Simple Mobile) had this issue on her stock ROM. Simple Mobile's Facebook page suggested installing APN Manager (free) which I did, and it worked great -- was able to delete the 'Tmobile' APN and leave only the Simple APN.. and its also backed up just in case things go wrong it will restore.
I am also going to test this out on my CM7 issue, where the APNs just disappear and work again on reboot. Maybe the APN manager will help me restore without reboot. This is with Tmobile -- no Simple Mobile even involved.
I had the same issue, and I use simple mobile. With weapon G2x ROM, whitehawkx's, it solved the issue. By default there is T-mobile's which cannot be deleted or edited. I also tried "MIUI 2.1.13 Stock w/ Trinity Kernel" which worked without any issue, just have to turn off auto selection on APN. It detected automatically the APN settings for simple mobile. Even if it is the old one(APN settings for simple mobile), it works. Simple mobile changed their settings, they made it more simple. I used this ROM for almost one day, there were no issue as I am telling, except my internal SD card, which was not available.
Try weapon G2x, see if it works for you.

An APN is an Access Point Name. You can check your APN by going into Settings -> Wireless and network -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names. The default one is T-Mobile US. If you select it it will display the settings for that particular APN. You can also create a new APN if you want/need.
We've been experiencing quite a bit of problems over the last couple of weeks here in Memphis, TN, too. T-Mobile bites at times.
Please If anyone could direct me to the answer I'd be eternal grateful. here is my issue and I'm not the only one with it there are a few of us.
Bought a Rogers HTC ONE X on launch day Unlocked it and hooked it up to the Telus network. right from the begining the phone would not connect to the Telus LTE network for what ever reason I doen know it should be compatible.
I've bounced around from every rom in this forum some would let me phone connect to LTE but only 10mbps download until I cam across KingCobra 1.2 based on Asia 1.88 (other roms at the same time were based from this same build) with this rom and the included V6 supercharger in the aroma installer my LTE came to life and my download speeds were 25-55mbps depending on the area I was in.
Here is my Question what is it about that rom that got my phone to connect to the Telus LTE network with thoes speeds??????????
Here is some of the stuff I've tried
V6 Supercharger - I've installed it with other roms of the same and different bases but still no luck.
Radios - I've flashed every radio and radio + Ril but still no luck getting it to work
Roms - tried every rom in here with different combinations and still no luck
Could there be something special about the telus rom files for it to conect to there LTE network? Does anyone have a Telus RUU I can try flashing to my phone to see if that helps?
I'm at my wits end with this problem and its driving me to the point where I'm thinking about selling my One X and getting the SIII and I hate samsung phones lol
You probably just need to enter the Telus APN. Turge lives in Canada so his ROMs might already include the Telus APN. This would explain why the KingCobra1X ROM would work but others won't. A quick google search should give you the APN settings.

Thanks guys but I should have said in the OP that this is one of the things I first tried. My APN is the exact same for other roms as the KingCobra rom.

Have you contacted TELUS technical support to ensure your account is LTE provisioned?
To provision, you require a V3 SIM Card, an LTE compatible plan (they should all be), and an LTE compatible phone.
There are a "rare few" that don't get provisioned automatically, DNA support can assist with this.
Have you tested your LTE SIM in another LTE phone? This would show if it is account related, network related, or possibly your hardware related.
As WorldIRC said you need to tell Telus you need LTE enabled on your account.
That being said I haven't done that with Rogers yet either but I've realized HSPA+ has been perfectly fine for me especially since I only have 500mb data plan.
Yes I have a v3 sim from Telus and my account is LTE enabled. I have contacted customer support and they tell me everything is fine at there end. Like I said it works perfectly on the KingCobra 1.2 rom. That tells me that it's not my network/plan or my hardware
I'm not the only one with this issue I know of at least 3 people with the same setup (unlocked Rogers phone on Telus network) Turge (dev behind the KingCobra rom) being one of them.
Even Turge can't figure it out that I know of. When he changed the base of his rom to 2.23 it broke the LTE for us if we did a full wipe but everyone else is ok.
It's really puzzling and I've spent all day messing with the Build.Prop in clean rom using settings from the V6 supercharger, from the king cobra rom what ever I could think of. Best I could come up with was
Phone connected to LTE but download was 10mbps and upload was 25mbps this is the best I can get on any rom other than KingCobra

Your unlock won't cause any problem.
Yeah I give up I went back to KingCobra1X 1.2 cause that's the only rom where my LTE works properly.
Going to check out my options might sell this phone and get the galaxy S III

You can +1 with another Unlocked Rogers HOX on Telus with the same problem. I always thought it might have been a Toronto thing, but now hearing you comment about this there must be something Telus does...perhaps to force you to buy their phones.
I don't think I'm going to give up on the HOX, I love this machine to death. Secretly I'm hoping someone will leak the stock Telus ROM so I can flash out of the stock Rogers ROM. I've recently updated to the latest Rogers Stock, and still same problem. LTE dl speeds capped around 10...
Lemmee know if you find a better solution than using KingCobra, I'm dying to see what true LTE feels like =P
Cheers!!!

I'm using a Telus One X....I haven't rooted / custom ROM'ed it yet...but contemplating doing so for LTE test purposes.
Right now, bone stock, I hit a max of 47mbit down today at Vaughan Mills; with an average of 20-25 mbit today.
OP have you tried the latest KingCobra rom released today?

I was never personally a fan of LTE even after I got my HOX, so losing it really didn't kill me. I am on the Telus network with a Telus HOX. I will revert back to my stock setup and see if I can pull anything out of it that is different from my current setup (CleanROM 4.5). IMO, 10mbps is plenty fast enough in everyday use, blows all my iJunk buddies out of the water anyways =p. Will report back.

For some reason I cannot get LTE to work at all on CM10. I've done everything and it still wont work at all. I tried reverting back to stock rom, and when I did, LTE worked. So I thought if I went back to CM10 from stock it would resolve the issue, but it did not. I've checked my APNs and I cannot change the preferred network mode and i tried *#*#info#*#* and i can't change anything there to anything that has LTE on it. I'm not sure if it's just a problem with the ROM or what, but I've done plenty of researched, searched all the forums, and can't find anything that will fix.
Additional information:
Im in ATT
I've tried all the radios
and I AM in an LTE area.

Ok, try different apn. Which cm10 are you trying to use?
Does the problem happen on other ROMs? I'm not saying to use a different ROM, just saying that if it doesn't happen on, say, AOKP or Orthus (both CM-based), it's probably an issue with how CM10 is configured on your phone.
If you go into network operators (settings -network)and select att it will allow to change modes.

Haha yeah most of the time this setting is overlooked and this option enables you to turn off LTE if you want (which you don't have to have a RAT unlocked modem as presumed) and if you go to *#*#4636#*#* on your dialer you can have it set to LTE only as well.

it came back after a few tries but then went away again, it's not consistently there to choose.
Does it show a searching animation?

I have the exact same issues. I've done everything on this post plus done all the research as well. For my problem whenever I enter an LTE area my data service completely drops for about 5 seconds and then when it connects it only shows HSPA+. I have never been able to pick up LTE. When I was on CM9.1 I had no issues at all. LTE connected with no issues. So is this a CM10 issue or a phone issue?
try this, might help, might not, make a backup, if you have more than one apn, remove all apn's except your lte apn(ATT Pta, for rogers :ltemobile), restart phone
edit: of course make sure it was set to the lte apn in the first place, if it was and still have probs, do above procedure if you have more than one apn

For some reason my APN was not set to the lte one (ATT Pta). I changed it to that. Hopefully that fixes my problem. Thanks for the help!
I have a slightly different problem. I am running the latest cm10 nightly and notice that any time I get lucky and go into a 4g coverage area I can only make phone calls. No data transfers at all. I have my APN set to ATT LTE pta which I assumed is the right selection. Im normally in a A3g(HSPA)~700-17 coverage area. Is this the wrong APN to use?

Yup. I have HSPA/HSPA+ around my house but close to work I have LTE. No problem with switching or losing data connection when I go from HSPA to LTE. Just double check your APN settings. There might be a typo or some missing field. Or you can create a new APN for lte and use that as your default.

It's most likely going to come down to APN settings. Unless somewhere in your T-Mobile account is blocked.

I am on AT&T and installed Adblock Plus and lost mms, it is a known problem with AT&T but don't know if it also causes problems on T-Mobile.
I dont have adblock installed. The apn settings im using have worked on my Nexus 5, Moto X, LG g2, Htc One, and literally every other phone ever!. Ive flashed back to full stock rooted and still no mms. It cant be the root messing up my MMS could it? My bootloader is unlocked, Im on TWRP with superSU and bussybox. I tried to post screenshots of My APN settings but since im a new user it wouldent let me.

I believe you are correct however I have tried every T-mobile APN setting I can find. Now for the weird part. I installed AOSP on the phone and it would send MMS no problem. So I checked to see what APN it was defaulting to and copied that then flashed back over to stock, plugged in the same exact APN and still no MMS. Im so confused. Why would MMS work on AOSP but not on stock based roms?
