Got the update today for Tmobile HTC One S. It saved my APN's but now when I select one, it waits for a few seconds then automatically goes back to the Tmobile default one. Anyone else have this problem? I rather liked having MY epc.tmobile.com APN.
everybody who did the update.
T-MobileUS HTC One S running Stock Rooted 2.21.
Known work around?
There is none yet.
You have to use the default APN programmed into the phone or root and install custom rom.

the fix is on my signature...
dont forget to hit the thanks...
For us not so much for a different provider but as a workaround to not have to pay for tethering.
That is what I have tried for a custom tmo apn and it didn't help.

Hey guys I just unlocked my phone using that galaxy s unlock app that was just created (thanks dev). I'm with rogers and tried a Bell SIM. Phone calls and sms worked fine and the service provider changed to Bell. I encountered a problem when trying to access the internet via 3G and it didn't work.. The 3G symbol was in my notification bar, and all other phone functions worked, anyone know a potential problem? Thanks

You need to input bell's apn settings before you can use its internet, do a search on google for them.

Unlocked on 2.2 phone was 2.1 when I bought it.

yes i'm rooted and i already tried going to back to stock, didn't seem to fix anything.
OK so if u went back to stock u should take it to a sprint store and tell them that it just started to happened and u did a factory data reset and nothing changed.

that isn't changing your radio band, so i'm guessing that you didn't try it. it's a pretty stupid idea, but who cares as long as it works, right? dial *#*#4636#*#* and click on phone information. then push menu, select radio band, and choose USA. otherwise, take it into sprint lol
This happened to me today. Flash to a stock rom (if you aren't already) and update your profile and PRL. Did the trick for me.
Good luck

i can't update my prl or profile. it just says cannot update please try again. i did a complete back to stock unrooted and still no luck.
So my girlfriend walked into a sprint store to activate my old evo 4g. The sprint guy was cool, saw that it was running miui and showed her that his personal phone was also running miui. He said he couldn't activate the phone though because it was rooted. She said he tried three times and it wasn't possible because it was rooted. Anyone else had this issue? Thanks.

A rooted phone shouldn;t be an issue but the fact that you're running a custom rom is. You're gonna have to go back to a stock rom in order to activate.

So, a rooted stock ROM should still be able to activate?

yes you just need a rom that has EPST, so you can update the data profile and use the dialer codes. Once it's activated on your number you can flash whatever you'd like

How can you tell if it has the EPST.apk?
Easiest way is go to the dialer and type ##3282# if a menu opens you have it

I have a new N5 and its unlocked and rooted. I get LTE just fine on the stock rom but when I flash any custom roms, LTE doesn't work. Even when I restore my backed up EFS on the custom rom, LTE still doesn't work. Anytime I nandroid back to my stock rom, LTE works fine. Any ideas or help will be appreciated.

Did you flash Sprint software? It could be the APN.
What sprint software? forgive me im new to this. I did make a backup of my apn of my stock rom and restored it when i flashed a custom rom, but it didn't make a difference.

I think there's some extra APKs you need to add to custom ROMs.
I fixed the issue. I unrooted and returned my phone back to stock. Then I found a sprint. Zip that you flash with custom roms and that worked.

I'm on Sprint and I've flashed most of the custom roms for N5 with zero LTE issues. Which rom did you flash?
There is no custom sprint software this is a Google phone.

Check the APN settings. On AT&T I have to tweak my settings to get LTE instead of H+.

Its a zip to flash after roms that sets the correct APN settings for sprint. I can't remember the thread I found it in though. But it was for the same issue I was having with my LTE/3g switching.

The reason I am searching through posts is this: my 3G works fine. But when it kicks over to LTE... Nothing happens... In a minute or two I may get 4 mbs or something pretty good and then nothing again. I need it to actually work. My wife has the same issue on her S4 and she is stock. It switches over to LTE.... Nothing. I have LTE off mostly. Steady slow 3g is better than no progress on LTE.
update profile
Should provide the correct settings in the custom Roms assuming the creator added the update profile features. I know cm does

I currently have an S-Off and rooted M8 running the latest FluentRom for Verizon.
Since the M8 is a "global phone", can I buy a European sim once I get over there, pop it in, and be good to go?
Yes, you can. However, i used to use the ViperRom not the one you mentioned. and it worked fine.
Mhmm that's good to know. Thanks!

Fluent ROM will work fine too.
Although use w.e ROM suits you best, but don't change just because someone else says they like another ROM better, you be the judge, it's your phone!

I wasn't sure if things for overseas get pulled from roms since obviously Verizon is here in the states.

Fluent ROM v1.1.3 is based off the China S-ROM
v2.0 is based off the International ROM
and v4.0 is a Sprint port.
you will be happy.
I suggest you flash v2.0

Will I have to change the APN's once I get over there?

Since you will be on a different carrier I would say yes.
What network and where are you going, I can try and edit a file for you now so that you can just flash it and hopefully you will get the network.
Even though ROMs are multicarrier, they don't support ALL carriers, so I may need to make a few changes to get you data. but I am here for you, as a friend to help. If my ROM turns out to not work well for you, I will help you get set up on another ROM. I don't fight for users. :good:

However, I feel you should be able to pop that SIM card in and just need to edit the APN and you are good. to. go.

I appreciate it!
I will be in Germany but no idea what carrier I will be on. I figured once I got over there, I would just buy a cheap sim card but will let you know more the closer it gets.
Bump! I'm running stock, S-off and rooted 5.0.1. I'm headed to Germany in a few days--can i just take any SIM and pop it in the phone when i get over there? Thanks!

Ended up selling my M8 before I went to Europe but it worked fine with my S6. Just had to change the APN to whatever your new carrier/sim is.
