T-Mobile APN settings for an unlock AT&T LG G2

hi, i have recently received a lg g2 from at&t. i am trying to use it with tmobile and i can't get high speed data to work. I was wondering if anyone know the proper apn settings to manually input into the phone. thanks in advance.

wrong section. can the mod please delete this thread. thank you

Even if you put the settings manually it does not work, I had lg g2 from at&t for 2 days and it never got speeds of more then 2g with tmobile SIM card in it and manual settings.

thank you very much!!! exactly what I need! :good::good::good: 3 thumbs way up!
after I used up the data limit on my t mobile 4g, does it automatically default to 2g speeds or do I need to set up another apn for the 2g?

It will slow you to 2g on their end, you dont need to change anything

ok, got it.

When I had my previous att phone which i unlocked and put on a t-mobile prepaid sim, I could swear it changed the boot screen from ATT's to TMO's.
On this ATT G2, I still have the ATT Bootscreen. also under Mobile Networks I still have Search for ATT Microcells. I figure this is just part of the stock ATT Rom.
What I really find weird is if I to go Network Operators and do a Search Networks it will find both TMO and ATT RATs.
Are you also experiencing this? Everything seems to work fine, including the TMO visual Voicemail app, so I don't think it is really a problem.

Service Mode on N9005

It is ridiculous, but I can not find how to enter Service Mode on N9005 device. All codes I found are unactive or blocked. I just want to switch 4G, which is active on my sim card, but it is samsung software limitation that holding me back in my country. What code should I use to switch on LTE/4G network? I wanr to enter Service Mode on my unrooted N9005 device.

Not. Samsung disabled all but a select few dialer codes.
You can give https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viaero4gtoggle a try, maybe it works.
You could always just flash a different version over it. As long as you stick to official and the same region, your KNOX stays at 0.

Same situation here I just want to turn on 4g and my service mode is blocked. Can you post if you find a solution. Thx

*#2263# is what works on my 9005
I also have tried everything I can find to get 4G or 4G LTE to work.. I actually spent about 30minutes with a wonderful ATT tech support guy who was going to call Samsung for me but my screen crashed and I lost the Chat session.. bummer.. He did ask if I had access to the 2100band but I couldn't for the life of me remember the code to get there.. I posted it up above..
On my phone I found that 850band will offer H, and 1900 will offer H+. the only network available in the area is one named Maritime.. No ATT though I have an ATT sim and it shows ATT on the lock screen on the 9005.
I can't figure it out. My APN settings are correct and copied from another Note3 900 ATT model from a Samsung rep at a Bestbuy.. My N3 900 model gets 4G and LTE with the same sim and network I haven't looked into setting further yet.. Will do tomorrow..

I was in Watford yesterday and my n9005 on 3 network automatically switched to 4G, got 21mbs down and 8mbs up. And they let you use it for free . Probably not a terribly helpful post but hey just thought I would share.
Sent from my SM-T320 using Tapatalk

I too had difficulty getting 4G on my HK 9005 in the UK. I confirmed with the carrier (3) that my account was active for 4G but aside from that they couldn't help. In the end trying to rule out what it might be I found a friend of mine who was also on the same carrier and had 4G working for sure on a Sony Xperia and we swapped SIMs to see if his worked in my Note and vice versa. Now for the strange part. My SIM worked with 4G in his Sony and his SIM also started showing the LTE option in my Note. So we swapped back and my Note still continues to show LTE in the network options and now gets 4G with my SIM.
No other changes made and it works. Just swapped a known working SIM into mine and my SIM into a handset that was know to get 4G. Not sure which kicked it into action or why but I now have a Note that is happily running 4G.
Could be a bug, might or might not work for others, but thought I'd share just in case.

On O2 UK, they have to supply you a new sim card as the oldies don't support 4G. I never had it in the options list either, just 2G/3G. Sim swapped and I have to say.......POOR!!! Very rarely see 4G unless I am in the middle of nowhere! In town centre where I used to get H+, I now get 'G'.
Was it worth having an LTE phone?????

In "more" under mobile networks... Under APN, are these all supposed to NOT be checked?? TIA!

I honestly have noooo clue lol.

Took this from Wiki
A mobile device making a data connection must be configured with an APN to present to the carrier. The carrier will then examine this identifier to determine what type of network connection should be created, for example: what IP addresses should be assigned to the wireless device, what security methods should be used, and how or if, it should be connected to some private customer network
Makes sense, the APK is needed so you device can communicate it the carrier to determine which network your phone should connect with. Still not sure what the need is, for multiple APNs, but at least I understand now what there used for exactly. The past week, I've worked again in downtown Boston, and my phone had no issues with handing off from 3G to LTE. Unfortunately I can't say the same for when I'm at home about 4 miles away. Kinda sux really. I know this isn't the topic for this thread, but I'm just hoping Sprint fixes this Spark issue soon, cause it's extremely frustrating.
Anyway, for anyone who wants a bit more info on APNs, Judy check out the Wikipedia page.

MSL for moto x pure

just tried to unlock the LTE band priority and the MSL on the Moto X Pure is 000000 for all phones.
this was needed for me because i am in miami and kept connecting to Band 26 alot instead of 41

How did you do it (unlock the band priority)?
Thanks!

enter the MSL after you do #*#*data*#*# then ---> LTE---->bands---->band priority---the 3 dot menu on the top right. hit edit and enter the MSL which is 000000 and you should be able to edit it there

Not everyone knows that "data" is the same as "3282".

sorry guys i have been busy. well you could try with signal check pro using the menu there to get you to there, but otherwise i would ask for a simcard just to program it.
for sprint, its *#*#DATA#*#*---->EDIT----->Enter MSL (000000)-----> grab a cookie and play!

I'm not on Sprint I have cricket. I have tried to use *#*#data#*#* but nothing happens. I would like to change my LTE band priorities. At work my MXP connects to band 17 which I get slow downloads while my nexus connects to band 4 and gets fast downloads.

I know this thread is a month old, but that's not entirely accurate.
I have Cricket and on my old phone (Nexus 6) I was able to change back and forth from band 4 to 17 and vice versa, I also had a selection of which LTE bands I could turn on and off. I had that same menu with my LG G3.
It's not on my MXP though which sucks.
You can switch bands on AT&T's network, it all depends on your phone though. It's not a network restriction.

No data during calls?

Hi Guys,
I'm using the US Mate 9 with AT&T, a GSM provider. I noticed when I'm on a call either there is no data (Internet) available or very patchy with the screen on...
Wanted to ask you guys if this is normal and expected behavior?
Thanks!

I dont think is normal, I've seen icon change from 4g to 3g to H+ when I'm on calls but still able to open facebook,whatsapp or firefox while calling. I'm with Tmo tho.

It's because At&t doesn't allow VoLTE on the Mate 9 so when you make a call you get dropped to 4g or 3g speeds. T-Mobile allows VoLTE so data doesn't change due to a call. I run both sims in mine and it's why I keep my personal line on T-Mobile and use it's data. My At&t line is strictly for work calls.

Thanks for your responses guys... In all my years of using all these different phones on AT&T, I've never ever noticed this since the Verizon days. I'll take the degraded 3G or H+, but yesterday it went straight to no data. Do you guys think I need an adjustment in my APN or is it a buried setting somewhere to fix it?
Thanks!

I didn't adjust anything with my At&t sim so I don't think you should need to either. Also this is a brand new sim and number so it was never in a different phone. I know on my Axon I had to put it in my iPhone first to get it working properly but not this phone. Are you in a good coverage area?

The device does VoLTE, At&t however isnt allowing it on the device. I can switch my data to my At&t sim and take a screen shot and back to T-Mobile and take one if need be.

Is the 4GLTE icon for Tmobile? I dont get to show the LTE letters but only 4G in mine, probably because is the Chinese version.

Both At&t and T-Mobile show 4gLTE icons but At&t's drops to 4g only while in a call, T-Mobiles stays 4gLTE which verifies VoLTE only works on T-Mobile.
I believe you're correct and the Chinese variant doesnt show LTE.

[SOLVED]
Guys, thanks for all your helpful responses! Just to close the loop on the issue of *NO DATA* during calls was fixed with the check box, checked in the attachment.
Although, as shared here, it's possible that it's H+ or 3G only service, not true LTE.
Thanks!

Alternative Solution
I had the same problem, I found out that this box was already checked on my phone, What fixed it for me was checking Mobile Network -> Access Point Names> selecting "ATT Phone"
I had initially selected "ATT Nextgenphone."
