Hello,
I purchased a HTC One M7... PN071?
The seller said it was originally from Australia And would work in the UK if I put my APN settings in.
He also said it was unlocked.
I have put the APN settings in and im still unable to access:
Internet
Receive or make Phone calls
BUT i am able to send and receive Text Messages
There is a 'R' above the signal bars as well which means roaming is something.
I will attach screenshots of the settings.
Also worth to mention that I'm on Three UK monthly (contract)
If anybody could help resolve this issue it would be much appreciated.
Many Thanks Kyle.

Hi folks. i have this prob and trying to find the solution.
I can receive MMS from overseas BUT i cannot send them. In US all is fine but not international..All settings are fine as well as data settings. Any idea ? it says "pending" in the message status and never goes
It happens with all my international contacts in different carriers. I have not be able to sent mms international all tho i have try several times, with 3 different countries, one was Romania, the other was Italy and the other was Greece. I'm more interested for Greece (my relatives are there), i have receive several mms (mostly pics) from them, from different providers ( Vodafone, Wind, and Cosmote) but every time i send one (in any of their carriers) never goes through and getting a permanent "pending" under status of mms. I have use the standard message app that came with my phone (LG G2X) as well and other apps like Handcend sms, but none goes through. Here in US all good, but not international. so i'm wondering if there is a special setup i have to do in the phone for that or our carrier have restrict this feature.. This problem is ONLY with MMS and NOT with SMS since all sms i have send there are going all through). My data program is unlimited as well and the messaging. On T-Mobile network full signal and 4g when i try. G2X is rooted but stock Rom. I have try most of troubleshooting (reboot, airplane manual set carrier etc) with no results. T mobile support says all working ok with network. Any info on settings or how i can fix this will be greatly appreciated. . Thank you in advance.

Hm.. I spoke with T-mobile the other day since I'm leaving for Australia in a couple of weeks, and they had to initiate some kind of "unlock" process so that the G2x could operate on international networks (assuming I understood them correctly). I don't know if this is simply for use outside the US or for use between other countries and the US.
But, at the time, my G2x was rooted, running Paranoid Android CM10 (build 8?). They asked for my IMEI number and things went along without a hitch. Don't know if this helps but I'm thinking there might have to be some kind of activation process to allow the phone to communicate internationally.

Thanks for the reply BUT my phone its already unlocked to work internationally (every provider that finances a handset locks it so you cannot use it with another carrier b4 the contract expires and if you need to use it then they send you an unlock code).
My problem is this : I can receive MMS from overseas BUT i cannot send them. and i'm based in US.
Thanks again in advance.

Sorry about that - I seem to have missed the part where you can still receive overseas...
If you're phone is already unlocked to use internationally, then I don't know what else could it be since you've tried both stock and 3rd party message apps. Have you tried sending via wifi?
I tried scouring the internet for this and couldn't find a solution and even went to the Koodo booth (although I had low hopes they could help at all).
Bought a Droid Razr Maxx HD for use on the Koodo network (Canadian) because I heard it was internationally GSM unlocked. I've read of people successfully using it on Bell, Rogers, Fido, etc.
I am able to call people, receive calls and receive texts but for some reason or another I cannot get a 3G signal or send out texts. I don't even have any bars of reception either. I've tried full wiping and re-installing the rom, turning on SMS over IMS, entering in the carrier-specific SMSC all to no avail. Does anyone know how to remedy the situation or even have any ideas on how to do so?
I am on Xenon HD if that means anything.

Might want to try one of the SIM apps in the play store, SIM Info or Offline SIM APN Database are a couple of good ones. These will read your SIM and then you can check the settings.

Purchased an HTC M8 from a friend that seems like was flashed to T-mobile. I tried everything and various roms (revolution, viper, bonestock) and the stock vzw RUU to get the phone back to verizon. The APN file is still showing all t-mobile files in it.
Also if I go into settings>Network preference: It shows all european networks ie: vodafone UK ,Claro dom,JP DOCOMO, all GSM/UMTS.
I called verizon to verify the IMEI and sim and they both checked out to be verizon, so I know its a verizon phone. Has the VZW logo on the back also.
I cannot make calls or get any internet connection with it. Tried changing all of the network settings, replaced the sim card and so far no go. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some help.I have searching and tried various procedures for the past 2 days without any luck.
Strange thing is the 4G icon is there and when i try to connect to the internet the bars below it become active but I always get the same message: Cannot connect to the internet.
The phone is rooted, TWRP, S-off and CID 11111111 also.
Thanks for any help !

Check your IMEI number, settings>about>status http://swappa.com/esn use this site to see if its bad or not. If it is, the phone was probably reported stolen or the person who bought it didn't pay the monthly amount for the phone, so Verizon would have blacklisted it
I called verizon and first verified that is was indeed a verizon phone which it is and it is ok to be activated. I took it to the store an they tried a new sim card but it did not work. No phone calls or data
No matter what RUU or rom i tried flashing when I check the apns-conf.xml file in System>etc it always ends up having T-mobile settings in there.
I have it rooted, S-off, SuperCID11111111, and nothing has worked so far. Very frustrated as I have been working on it going on 3 days. But not all is lost. I have have learned a lot trying to get it fixed. I just might end up sending it in to HTCand have them fix it. Sure would suck to have a $400 paper weight
Thanks for the reply..
At boot time, Android determines the correct network configuration based on the MCC and MNC from the SIM card and automatically configure all network settings.
I have a verizon HTC One M8 (had my imei verified at a verizon store and esn was clean) with a new sim card and yet all of the files in my system>etc>apns-config.xml file are showing T-mobile.
Also in settings>Network Preference>all of the carriers are coming up vodafone, CLARO DOM, JP DOCOMO Swisscom and they are all GSM/UMTS.
Does anyone know why its not loading the proper files from my sims MCC and MNC ? This has been driving me crazy for the past 3 days trying to figure this out.
I flashed stock RUU and am s-off, unlocked, Super CID 11111111. Have no idea what is causing this.Any help or pointing me in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated.
Well, Sent it in for repair. Told the Customer rep the phone was roooted, Rom'ed, CID'ed and that I never got to activate it.
So just waiting to see what happens and will post when I find out the verdict.
BTW, they could tell when I gave them the IMEI the day that the phone was rooted. Is that possible ? Sure came as a surprise to me. Gave the lady the IMEI # and after about 1 minute she came back on and told me the phone was rooted on May 1st. I have no idea if that is true because I have only had the phone for 1 week now.
Hey all. I just got my hands on the note edge from a friend. He says its unlocked although it was originally at&t (symbol on back cover). I put my tmobile sim in there and it seemed to work just fine. I was able to make calls and send and receive texts, etc. I did notice that I was unable to get data connectivity like 4g/LTE which I was getting on my old unlocked s4. It would just show the bars but not 4g/LTE/3g symbols. Are there any fixes for this or tricks to get the data to work or will it not be able get it at all because it was at&t to begin with and Im using a Tmobile sim? I would not call myself an expert around phones. The most I have done is install a different ROM but that was with supervision haha. I also tried to search for USSD codes but didnt have any luck with that.
Any help or advice is appreciated!
-Thanks
I will be traveling to Europe on Friday and purchased a Global Unlimited Sim that has unlimited data and texting for a month.
https://www.mobal.com/global-unlimited-sim/
I wanted to test the sim card out here in the US with my Galaxy S6 to make sure I'm all set. I popped the card in and it gave me a message that 'This is not a Sim for Verizon Wireless'. Texting seems to work fine, I don't want to test calling since the would be a charge. Data however doesn't seem to work at all.
I have a call in to Mobal and am hoping to hear back (but haven't yet) . Does anyone happen to know if the reason data won't work is because I'm in the US? I wasn't sure if Verizon locks this in the US. This should work fine in Europe I assume right? (It is an international T-Mobile Sim card)
If anyone knows anymore and could let me know I'd greatly appreciate it!

Are there certain apn settings I need to try? I see either an 'H' or an 'E' so it looks like it's finding data, but won't connect. Verizon is now telling me that since it's a tmobile sim, even if I'm out of the country it won't work (including data) is this true and can anyone help me out with this?? I leave Friday and really am trying to get this working.
Anyone know anything I can try??

I can confirm that this works. I switched back to T-Mobile about 6 months ago and have used my G920V in The Netherlands, UK, and Germany.
