[Q] lg g2x on straight talk

Let the yelling begin. Just got my G2x from ebay
Used the Nokia E71 sim that I already own
Straighttalk tech support said I need to get a new sim and phone number.
ATT said I do not need a new sim. SO i came here
Phone works, texting works, WiFi works after setting apn= ATT.mvno
sw=p999-V21e
FW=2.3.3

any ideas.

so if everything works, whats the problem?

the problem is no data . no internet

That would be a sim issue. You may need an unlock code to have access. Other wise check your vpns

Well alright, I just read phone works text work and so on... try putting in the apn's in??? I just googled this try looking more if it doesn't work for you. Other than that maybe SIM???

unlock code
I think the phone is unlocked. That is they way it was sold . Says t-mobile on it but when calling or txting displays att ( that is the nokia e71 sim ), and the the att.mvno that I entered .
How do I check if it is unlocked?

If its unlocked it should all work. http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html Try looking through here. US is almost all the way at the bottom. Not sure exactly what your using. Not sure if you need the sim carrier or the baseband carrier.
Edit: oh, and if you have access to the phone when you put your sim card in, you said your making calls and sending texts. Yeah, your phones unlocked. The internet thing though is a little weird.

straight talk g2x
It could be the way straighttalk connects to internet. The sim from E71 nokia works with I phones and straighttalk can't find any info why it wouldn't work with android. Thanks for your input.

Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
Here are the steps I used to get MMS working on Moto Backflip with Android 2.1
First download Apn Backup and Restore app from app store, and delete all existing APNs. Then manually enter APNs. In android you must have 2 apns setup for mms to work (at least in my case).
Here are my settings:
Name
HOME
APN
att.mvno
Leave everything else alone EXCEPT the bottom selection that says:
APN type (here you must enter the following)
default,supl
Then save, next choose to add another APN
make it look like this:
Name
MMS
APN
att.mvno
skip down to
MMSC
http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy
proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
MMS port
80
skip to:
APN type (enter the following)
mms
THEN SAVE
You will see that only one APN has the option to be chosen, that is ok, Just choose the one that is able to be chosen.
Now go back to Homescreen and then reboot your phone.
This works for me, hope it can help you. I tried a hundred different ways and this was it. Capitalization is important, and the APN type was the trick.
GOOD LUCK and let me know if it worked for you.

it works 2g where I am now but I am in

Did you get the data to work? I've been considering going to ST. I've had them before, and for a prepaid company, had really good experience with the service in my area. The same can't be said for Tmo

Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
yes it works. The configuration I used is posted a few days ago. The speed for connection shows 2g. Other than that it works well. I am looking for the code to get 3g now. If you read the code above you will see the words tracfone. That is a 2g network ( I think ). I think I have to change that.

Well it's all the same company. Not sure how they handle that. I wonder if it might have something to do with using the SIM you used, (which would make ST right when they said you need a new one.) In any case, I'll just be buying a SIM from them to use on my phone, so maybe it'll work out fine. Unfortunately, I'm still under contract at the moment, so it may be a little while longer.

Straight Talk works well on the default Tmobile ROM, but I just upgraded to Eagles Blood and the T-Mobile SIM settings do not work at all on Straight Talk (for MMS+Internet). Does anyone know of a fix?
These are my settings:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: wap.tracfone.com
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260

[Q]No Data Connection After Update (Consumer Cellular)

I have an AT&T branded Galaxy SII i727 Skyrocket (4G LTE). It is not unlocked, has not been rooted and runs AT&T firmware. The phone was purchased independent of a contract (eBay). I am a very light user, but I find it convenient to have a data plan and initially used AT&T GoPhone prepaid. Phone and SMS worked properly on AT&T right away, but some tweaking was required to get data to work. After a few months, I switched to Consumer Cellular (AT&T MVNO). Again, data did not work at first, but CC's tech support gave me revised Access Point Name settings and all became as it should have been.
Recently (I don't remember exactly when, but it was in early or mid December), I finally gave in to the phone's insistence on updating to a later firmware version. From then on, I have been unable to get data to work at all. the 4G symbol no longer appears (although I doubt it was ever actually a 4G connection) and any App that requires a data connection (web, email, etc) complains about no connection. WiFi, on the other hand, works properly with all such Apps.
Here are the specifics of my phone:
Samsung SGH-I727
Android 4.04
Baseband Version I727UCLI3
Kernel Version:
3.0.8-1127534
[email protected]#1
SMPPREEMPT Thu Sep 27 23:12:45 KST 2012
2012​Build number IMM76D.UCLI3​
My questions are these:
Has anyone had this sort of problem (data on Consumer Cellular fails after upgrade)? If so, how did you solve it?
Was this problem caused by the upgrade? If not, what other issues might have caused it and how can they be corrected?
How can I revert the firmware to the previous version to confirm the cause and/or resolve it?
What else can I do to get my data connection back?
I am not particularly Android savvy, but I am not shy about making changes in settings and/or installing fixes.
Thanks,
Tenaya

Here's a silly question but did you add the APN your carrier gave you back after the update?

Consumer Cellular APN settings for Skyrocket i727
I recently moved my service from AT&T to Consumer Cellular using my existing Samsung Skyrockets. The new phone signal is identical to that of the old as far as I can tell. (same towers) My issue came when trying to setup my text and data side of my Samsung Skyrocket. The settings provided by CC on their website are incomplete. Be prepared to speak with a 2nd level tech to accomplish all of the connections required on "their" end. Here are the APN settings that are working on my two i727's as of Jan 2014. Both are running 4.1.2
Name: Consumer Cellular
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: "66 . 209 . 11 . 32" (without spaces)
Port: 80
User name: Not set
Pasword: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http :// mmsc . cingular . com (without spaces)
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default,supl,mms,agps,fota
APN protocal: IPv4
Enable/disable APN: APN enabled (check)
Bearer: Unspecified

very helpful for my Skyrocket
Thanks for posting this. I had data working on my AT&T skyrocket, now used with Consumer Cellular, and then it stopped for no apparent reason. I had all the same settings as above, but on my phone the Authentication Type was unspecified or none. I changed it to PAP and now data is back. I don't know if I had never set this before, or if something changed it, but I'm glad it seems to be working again.

always when you format your phone, check the APN settings.
If it isn't configured you won't be able to surf.
happy to hear you fixed the issue.

good while it lasted -30 min

While changing that setting did bring the data connection back to life, it seems to have disappeared again. I'm not sure why. When I turn airplane mode on and then off, data doesn't reconnect. When I reboot the phone it seems to connect after maybe 15 minutes of trying. Could it be a bad sim card? Or maybe should I do a complete reset of the phone? I don't see anyone else reporting these sorts of symptoms, so maybe it is specific to my phone.

Another option for Consumer Cellular APN settings
I just got off the phone (third time in a week) with a tech support person at CC. They said they think they knew the problem. Because the AT&T SGH-I727 skyrocket is 4G LTE capable, a new APN should be set up:
Name: ccilte
APN: ccdata
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default,mms,supl
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
I asked a couple of times if they really should be backslashes for Server and MMSC, rather than forward slashes. They insisted they should be backslashes, which is what I put in, and it worked, and then I changed them to forward slashes (which seems more appropriate) and that works too. That was weird, since I'd expect one to fail. So now I seem to get a data connection (it has been almost a day and it hasn't dropped data service). I even went in and out of airplane mode, turned wifi on and off, and data came right back, which never happened before. Hopefully this may help someone else who made the bumpy transition to Consumer Cellular.

MMS not working on AT&T with xt925

I recently got the XT925 fido version and I am using it on AT&T, everything is working beautifully, hsdpa, LTE works perfect as well. The only issue I'm having is that mms messages or picture messages come in where it asks me to download, I tap download but it does not download the image, it just sits there. One issue is that everyone who is sending to me is sending from an iPhone so that may have something to do with it. If anyone knows a way to get around this issue with mms I'd appreciate the help, thank you.

Check your APN. Are you using something that is automatically selected by the phone or did you enter one in manually?

Create another APN and use this:
Name: ATT PTA
APN: pta
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

Don't forget to make sure you select it after saving it, because the OS will not do that automatically. Reboot the phone, go back to the APN list and make sure it's still there and selected. Try sending or receiving MMS to it. The automatically selected entry is an older APN and this new one might actually give you a small LTE speed boost. Give it a shot with SpeedTest.

pta does not seem to be working on my phone. the hsdpa apn is working and i get lte from it. mms does not work with the hsdpa the settings you provided i actually attempted to create new apn with them but i don't get data connectivity with the pta apn, i don't know what the problem is, i'm wondering if it has something to do with the way att has my account setup since i'm coming from an iphone 5 and i never notified them that i got a new phone. Could this be possible?

just to let everyone here know, I am coming for an at&t iphone 5 lte, and i bought a fido xt925 from ebay. by default when i go into the apn settings there are 5 apns available, out of those 5, 2 of them are pta and hsdpa, I am not able to use the pta at all, it will not get data connectivity at all for me. Also lets take into account that i am using my sim card from my iphone 5 which is a nano sim so i am using an adapter to size that sim to a micro sim to get it into the razr hd. the only apn with which i get data is the hsdpa apn, when using that apn i am able to get hspa+ and LTE because i see the symbol changes from H+ to 4G and i have tested and I do get lte speeds. The mms problem i noticed is only when i am using LTE, when i am using the hspa+ i am able to send and receive mms messages. basically when the phone has H+ i can get and send mms but when the phone goes to 4G I am not able to send or receive mms. Very strange I will be contacting at&t about this.

I'm sorry to hear you're still having issues with MMS. I just did a firmware restore on my phone and was able to select PTA and use MMS in WiFi, H+ and LTE. I'm not sure how much of an assistance AT&T will be willing to offer though, since you are using a phone that is not normally provisioned by them. I've ran into cases where they just shrugged and told me it's not their problem when I had data issues with the International Note.

Q MMS messaging and straight talk apn

Has anyone been able to get MMS working with an att straight talk Sim . I have tried many variations of the settings I've used in the past with no luck
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Yes, this is what I have used:

APN: tfdata

MMS port: 80

APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
This works but every now and then it will stop working.. a reboot of the phone and recconection to LTE fixes it every time, so I believe it has more to do with LTE connectivity, then the actual APN settings.

I am using the same APN for the most part but I have only been able to send pics through Hangouts. I tried Textra and GoSMS and neither will send. I used the same settings on my nexus 4 with straight talk and all mms apps worked.

When you say you have been able to send pics through hangouts, do you mean that you are able to send MMS through hangouts, or just a pic to another google user?

I sent pic as a text to my gf. Tried other apps first went back and set hangouts as default and it went through.

So you can receive and sent MMS on the Nexus 5 with those settings without any problems?

Update: with the apn settings I posted, I am now getting uninterrupted lte service and mms send and receive are working flawlessly. My occasional interruptions before were probably due to slow wake up after I was running WiFi.

T-Mobile LTE?

Hey guys. I'm using my sprint s6 edge on T-Mobile. I know on the verizon models you can just leave it on global mode and it will go to LTE,
But on the sprint s6 edge, when i go to global, it says tmobile LTE on about phone>status but I cant configure a data connection. I have to switch back to HSPA+ to configure APN
ANy ideas on how to make LTE work? if even possible

How did you get your sprint s6 edge to work on t-mobile? Also I believe sprint models can only receive HSPA+.

I have the same question.. I purchased a sprint s6 edge from eBay and used idone app to carrier unlock. But I'm only getting 3g. Is there a way to get LTE using T-Mobile?

First a question: Does everything else work on the phone on T-Mobile? I've considered buying one on ebay because they're cheaper than the other varients of the S6 edge.
Now to answer your question: Call T-Mobile and have them enter your IMEI number as being LTE capable. It takes about 30 seconds, then reboot the phone. If it works you will have LTE. I just did it last week on my LG Optimus G Pro. T-Mobile doesn't recognise the AT&T IMEI of my phone, but now that it's in the system ... BAM LTE BABY!

To get LTE working you have to make another apn exactly like your regular tmobile apn but set the bearer to LTE. and leave your network mode to Automatic.

i just tried to set bearer as LTE and then i got no data on my sprint s6 on cricket/att. can anyone confirm ever having lte on these phones? i seen another thread where someone says they have it but they dont reply on the s6 section due to no roms. has anyone tried flashing a tmobile rom without the modem and then installing a sprint s6 unikernel? ive gotten gsm roms to boot but my baseband was unknown and had to flash a sprint rom again to make gsm calls. we could figure this out if people worked together .

This kind of worked for me. The LTE works, however I can't send or receive text messages (MMS works though). Texts work when I switch it back to 3G.
Edit: I'm using an unlocked sprint galaxy s6 edge on T-Mobile.

Has anyone has any luck with this? I'm still at the point where I have HSPA+ on T-Mobile but no LTE.

Everything is working for me 920p. Had sprint unlock the phone.
Had to use the epc.tmobile apn not the fast.tmobile one. (Google it)
I only had 3g for a while, then I found you have to get your msl code do the ##data# on phone keypad. Go to edit enter your msl code.
Go to LTE it will be disabled, enable it. Go back. Go to CA enabled(I think) enable that also (carrier aggregation), it will reboot now it works for me.
Its only been a day but SMS,MMS calls all work. I've seen something about voicemail not working but I use Google voice and it works so idk.
I'm on the 6.0.1 stock. Don't know if that matters.
Edit- this did work, but two days later I had LTE but no call service. Its my business phone so I had to revert to 3g only, Im thinking now its the ROM that is the problem. Because your only option is LTE/CDMA or GSM. If you leave it on automatic which is what I had it on, it can switch to CDMA I guess and that's when I lost cell service. On a T-Mobile ROM I think there is an option for GSM/LTE

Has this been resolved? been thinking about picking up a Sprint S6 from a family for Tmobile :[

I have lte after adding a apn but mms is a no go.

anyway to get mms working on T-Mobile?

Hi Guys, SM-G920P working with HSPA+ and LTE on T-Mobile with MMS working. Unlocked with idoneapps and couldn't get lte. I resolved by turning on domestic data roaming.

I have T-Mobile LTE and MMS on my unlocked Sprint GS6 Edge (G925P). The only issue I ran into was not being able to send MMS messages while connected to WiFi from the default messaging app; which was resolved by changing my default messaging app to Textra. See Network settings below.

how to get lte on unlocked g920p
its actually pretty simple all you have to do is download the latest tmobile firmware for g920t and flash it onto your sprint s6 (g920p) using odin.
