[Q] Avatar 4.2.2 Rom LTE APN issues - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I have an S-OFF ATT HOX. SuperCID. Installed the Avatar 4.2.2 rom. Works great! Snappy, and pretty! Only problem is I was only able to get 4G speeds. After a 30 min conversation with ATT to confirm there were no issues on their end, I looked at the APN settings for PTA. The APN settings were incomplete.
Normally the APN type has default,mms,supl and hipri but my installs (3x) never included. I attempted to add the hipri to the APN and even create a new APN, but the changes would never save.
Any thoughts?

Is the APN locked from being edited? Try just making a new APN with the correct settings.

Avata 4.2.2 APN woes
Its not locked. I can get into the existing 6 APNs and create a new one, but there is no save button on a new APN or existing APN. But I guess by definition means it is locked. I speculated just pressing back auto saved the entered settings but alas, no LTE goodness

Weird. I've seen where the APN is locked from editing (Save button is grayed out) such as the default APN on the AT&T stock ROM. But even then, you can create a new APN and save it. Never seen where it locked you out from editing and saving altogether.

[Q] CM10 on Rogers, no LTE.

All right, so, I have tried everything I can think of, but nothing has worked, so I decided to try asking here. I am have been on the CM10 builds for about a week, and I am loving them. I never really liked sense, so an AOSP JB rom is great (aside from the battery life). Before CM10, I was on ViperXL, and LTE worked fine, but after switching to CM10 (or any other AOSP roms) it just stops working. I can get everything else, Edge, 3G, and HSPA, but LTE just won't work. Just a couple hours ago I did a wipe and a clean install of the October 3rd nightly, and I am still having the issue.
One thing I haven't tried is flashing a 4.0.3 rom, and then the CM10 rom, but the FAQ says that issue has been fixed so I doubt it would help.
Anyway, thanks in advance for the help!
Check your APN settings. These settings worked for me.

I've had the exact same issue. I'm on Rogers too. I've double and triple checked the APN (ltemobile.apn) and it is definitely correct. I first noticed this on PA, and now get the same thing on CleanROM. Yesterday, I ran the Rogers RUU and that got LTE. So I went back to CleanROM (same radio image) and now only get HSPA. If I try to use the ltemobile.apn APN it fails with the message "Connection failed due to incorrect APN setting." Hope this info is useful for anyone with educated guesses

I checked, I had all that set correctly, still no LTE
If anyone else has suggestions, I would be glad to hear them.

From my experience i've had no issues with Rogers LTE on Sense roms and CM10. I would probably try deleting the APN and re-adding it.
I'd also check the network type. In dialer, dial *#*#4636#*#* and under Phone Information check that the network type is set to 'GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto'
Beyond that, trying running the latest Rogers modem/baseband. I'm using 0.18as.32.09.28L with no issues.
I've only had my One X a week so beyond this, i'm out of ideas.

there is an option in setting...you have to change from wcdma to lte...in mobile settings...
i can confirm lte works with cm10...worst case try flash a 4.0.3 rom then flash cm10..
Here's my experience: you no longer need the sense flash method. Make share you do a system, factory, cache and dalvik wipe. Do system and factory twice, as it did not always 100% work for me.
Then boot up. Go to apns and delete all the non-lte ones. Set the lte/wcdma/gsm setting there.
Next go to *#*#4636#*#* in dialer. Check phone information so that network says lte/gsm(prl).
Reboot and hopefully it will all stick.
Also I noticed that the default lte APN has port 80 and not MMS port 80. Make sure that is correct

Okay, I've made some progress on this. I did a factory reset and system wipe from TWRP recovery then re-installed CleanROM 5 from scratch. When it booted up I added the ltemobile.apn APN. This time it successfully connected to the APN, but it still did not get past HSPA. I then booted back into recovery and replaced /system/build.prop with the build.prop from the Rogers 1.94.631.3 stock ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1812544). When it booted up it got LTE coverage.
So there must be something key in build.prop required to get LTE to connect. I've attached the two build.prop files in case anyone with trained eyes wouldn't mind diffing them and suggesting what setting might be the key to unlocking LTE.
With CM10 I had to delete the APNs and re-add them, even if they were correct. Not sure why.

Any chance you have figured out how to get it working on CM10? I tried the other suggestions, like deleting the apns and then entering them again, wiping everything, and I checked that the network was set to lte/gsm(prl). Still no LTE unfortunately.

Nope. I'm still rockin' HSPA on CleanROM. Some day I will probably mess around with the build.prop to see if I can figure it out. I really have no idea though. You should try running the RUU just to see if you get lte like I did.
Just got LTE working on Rogers with CM10, finally!
1.) First, I flashed the official stock Rogers ICS Baseband/Modem. You can check to see if you already have the correct modem by going to Settings, choosing About Phone, and checking your "Baseband version".
2.) Second, I corrected the APN settings that come default with CM10. The APN for ltemobile.apn need to be change, since the CM10 settings incorrectly set the Port as 80 (should be left blank), set the MMS port as blank (should be "80"), and set the APN type as something along the lines of 'default' (should be either "*" or "internet + mms"). Make sure you click the menu hardbutton and choose "Save", and go back and check to see that it did indeed save. I also selected the Rogers LTE amonst the list of the four different APNs (Rogers, Rogers LTE, Rogers Tethering, Rogers WAP - not sure if this last step makes a difference but this is what I did anyway).
3.) Go to your phone dialer, and type in *#*#4636#*#*. A "Testing" menu should pop up. Select "Phone information", scroll down to the bottom and under 'Set preferred network type", I chose "LTE/GSM auto (PRL)".
4.) Voila, this worked. I did not need to restart, just gave it a minute and the icon changed from H+ (HSPA+) to 4G (LTE). You can confirm LTE status by either doing a speed test and seeing the results, or go to Settings, scroll to the bottom and choose "About Phone", then "Status", and under "Mobile network type" it should say LTE. On mine it said "LTE:13".
Others, please experiment and try to see if you get the same results.
Cheers

This I think is the main thing. I'm on AT&T but up until just recently every time I flashed an AOSP ROM I had to go into this menu and set it to LTE/GSM. It would always default to WCDMA Preferred for some reason. It doesn't happen anymore but it used to happen every time I flashed an AOSP ROM or even when I rebooted. I had to change it and then it would be fine until I rebooted again.
Thanks, this worked on my SGH-I727R on Rogers.
I wonder why the apn settings load wrong in CM10 when the system reads them from the SIM card...? This never happened to me on previous aosp ICS roms.
what setting do you have for the tethering apn?
i am having issues having other devices running off my hotspot

It's funny you posted this. I am on AT&T and recently I have not been able to get tethering devices to work, but up until recently, I have never had a problem.
my bud has the same phone unrooted with rogers gonna check his apn settings and see if they differ.
K well I just got off the phone with rogers. All the APN setting are fine but still no tethering. Well if it don't won't it don't work. If anyone is successfully tethering on cm10.1 build Jan 12 2013 with Rogers plz let me know.

[Q] Add APN After 4.4.3 Update

Hi everyone. M8 Verizon.
I'm on stock rooted on 4.4.3 S-Off. I noticed with this update they removed the ability to add APNs in addition to the Verizon one .
I travel to the middle east and usually swap SIM cards, selecting the corresponding APN, and it worked fine while on 4.4.2. On 4.4.3 I can edit the Verizon Apn to put the Vodafone apn for data to work, however the MMS part is blocked, and it won't let me enter anything.
Once I re-insert the Verizon APN I have to say Restore defaults for the Verizon APN to populate.
My question is, how can I get the feature back to add additional APNs? I use to be able to toggle through several.
* If you look at the attachment, where it says Reset to Default, there used to be a feature that Said "Add APN"
Thanks!

i found one way to make them work,one bad thing it's that if you restart the phone you will have to do it again,but at least it's working again.
select the apn from verizon,the only field we can modify it's the APN
then enter the info from your carrier,for example :
fast.t-mobile.com in the case of t-mobile
vzwinternet in the case of verizon
as we know that field changes with our carrier but they just were some apn's i found on internet.
then save the apn,it worked on my GSM carrier again with 4G LTE.
i hope you get data again,let me know.

Choose APN's

I have my OPO on AT&T network and under APN in settings there are 7 AT&T APNs. Can I try different ones to see if any are better, or will I screw things up? Thanks
Try until you get your data working
Delete all of them except ATT LTE. I also add hipri to APN type.

US Cellular SM-G920R4 Galaxy S6 APN Data Connection Locked to 3G

I have a US Cellular G920R4, unlocked.
USC has co-opted the data connection. For example, I can add an APN for Verizon and select it, but it doesn't work.
If you set the APN setting to default and remove all APNs, it dispalys a message that states that "APN settings are disabled for the current user profile."
Data is 3G by default.
Also, they've locked the browser such that you can not remove or even change the default home page, which is the USC portal.
How to I eliminate their default setup and restore the APN settings?
I was having a problem with this also and I was able to add a working APN by disabling WiFi first. You'll still see the APN settings disabled error until you add the new APN. You'll then be able to select the radio button next to the APN you added after it has been saved. It worked for me just now so I hope that helps you.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am glad the solution worked for you and, hipefully it will help others. The WiFi settings on my device were disabled. I can add an APN and select it as default, but it's ignored - even after I delete all APNs by returning to default settings and starting over.
