One X APNs locked? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So, I live in an area with really spotty LTE coverage. My phone will exhaust itself just to try connecting to the LTE network. When it fails to do so, my service will usually drop for 30sec-1min. It's immensely annoying. However, there is decent HSPA+ coverage where I am, and I'm trying to force the phone to use that.
However, the #*#*4636*#*# doesn't work, as we all already know, since AT&T disabled this setting. So I tried to add an HSPA+ only APN and use that.
...only I can't seem to select the new APN I made. Here's what I get when I try to use it:

Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know of a workaround?

Put * in apn type
Edit: like this

And what do you put in APN field?
word "phone" used to work, but now even that still connects to LTE...

It depends on the carrier, I'm on rogers and they have the "smartphone" apn and the android one.. now they have the LTE apn so you have to google what your carriers apn is.

Rogers Nexus S works on AT&T 3G Network?

I've purchased a Nexus S sold by Rogers, it was a steal! I got it for $305.93 (that includes tax and shipping)!
I was wondering if I could use it on AT&T 3G? I know the bands are not going to be a problem, so besides that and the APN settings.

This chart is pretty comprehensive... and up until 2004 it was called "Rogers AT&T Wireless" so it'll work.

Will Confirm this too.
My is an original Rogers, that was being used in US (ATT), then sold to me (rogers again)
3G works fine on both carriers. Mine is the I9020A.
Heeter
I have the white 9020a and it also works on AT&T. I needed to flash a new radio (KB3) in order to reach uncapped data speeds.
Thank you everyone, i'll update you guys on which nexus s i'll get in the mail. I hope its rogers!
it also worked for china NETCOM 3G, 2100 HSPA

Data problem with UXKJ7|CWM|AT&T/ROGERS|DEB&DEO|NOCIQ SkyROCKeteer 2.0 Beta 1

Anybody know why i can't access my 4G LTE or HSPA+ network on this rom? It's really weird because when i'm home, i have access to 3G, but as soon as i leave home, no data connection is made. I have full bars in an area where LTE works really well but it doesnt want to connect to it? Are there any known problemw ith this rom?
Try flashing different radios from the dev forum or try changing apn.

MMS not working.

So I switched to Pacman ROM (4.2.2) and now for some reason my MMS isn't working, i cannot send or receive. I've attached my current APN settings. I've tried multiple messaging apps to no avail. Any help would be appreciated

Try fixing permissions.......works for me when it hangs up like that.
I just tried that, still nothing.

Have you tried decreasing the message size? I had it too high and they wouldn't send. 1mb seems to be ideal.

Then maybe factory reset and re-flash......other than that, no idea.
Yeah i had a feeling that would be the end result (re-flashing) I'm just lazy and don't feel like doing it lol.

Oh its not the mms size either, because I can't even receive them.

Are you able to use your data correctly on 4G not wifi? MMS travels thru data, I don't know if you are on att, but if you are, i would suggest you make sure your APN settings are correct (by AT&T's standard), and call them to cancel you registration (resetting yourself on the network).
but if all else fails, then obviously reflash
I had the same issue with this ROM the first day after flashing it. It had some data connectivity issues which caused it, but they seemed to have resolved themselves.

I feel like using two different phones (among other things) creates a variable that messes with the test. Hasn't anyone watched Mythbusters? Gosh.

Well point was to use one phone thats on the 4g lte network and one on the xlte network. I doubt using both at same time does anything since im sure thousands of other people nearby were on their phones in los angeles as well. Plus each phone was on a totally different account if one would think it might have any effect if they were on same account.

No I understand, I was just pointing out that there are quite a few variables in this test that aren't accounted for. It's an interesting result but there's so many variables they didn't bother controlling and a bunch that are essentially out of their control that make the test fundamentally flawed.

I'm sorry I must not have said it well enough. I said in my post I have done what you show and the does not work. All I think that does is turn off hd voice. Other than that it does not remove you from the LTE network. Thanks though.

Have you tried unchecking that and checking the thing above it?
And no you were clear enough, I just didn't read it right
this is now possible if you root your phone! modify the build.pop located in /system/
Default:
ro.build.target_operator=ATT
Modify it to:
ro.build.target_operator=OPEN
this will also get rid of AT&T in the top left corner, the 4G LTE logo (itll just simply show 4G instead)
