Hmmm, that's really weird lol. You only have 1 option and it's check marked, I have 3 and none of em' are... odd.
Yeah and I got 5 options and none of em are selcted lol. I know nothing about APNs so I couldn't really comment on it. Curious myself.

I remember checking the apn settings the first day I got the phone. I only had one option then too. Not sure why I have 5 now. Reading up on APNs now!

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.

Ok, first BUCK FOSTON!!! hahaa
Seriously though, I'm still confused as to why I have 3-4 APN configurations and some others her have less, and then I'm even more confused as to why none of mine are selected, yet data and stuff still work....

I went into More Networks->Mobile Networks->Network mode and switched it to Automatic from LTE/CDMA and the device repopulated all of my APN entries during the reboot!

1. Are any of the APN's selected?
2. What's the difference between automatic and LTE/CDMA; are you still getting 3G + LTE?

Agreed, wish we could get some definitive answers on what the various APN settings are/what they are used for.

Hi everyone!
New to this form, and i need you guys help. I'm located in HK (using One2free)
got me a China OPO, flashed to CM11 and now I can't make or receive calls when in 4G mode.
I can make and take calls when i switched to 3G or 2G.
how can i fix this issue.
Thanks in advance
Jerome
The OPO does not support Voice over LTE (VoLTE). Do not limit your phone to LTE only
Go to dialer, dial in *#*#4636#*#*... phone settings... set it to LTE/GSM auto PRL under preferred network type.

Your phone should switch back to 3G/2G when you make the phone call. Do you have anything on your phone to prevent that from happening?

ya, it didn't switch... i don't think i have anything preventing to switch back to 3G/2G. How do i check? Sorry I'm such a noob on this thing.

I have no idea, normally it should just switch to 2G/3G when making the call.
Maybe this would help? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2793471 ask there. I'm not familiar with the chinese OPO
This is a kernel issue or your apn settings are wrong.
i think its your apn setting

well i don't exactly know how to change it but i think it involves getting to the service menu and changing it there
It's due to the radio of CM11S using is not compatible.
Flash this rom. https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon&type=snapshot
Then you'll get your device working in all bands.
I just fixed this problem yesterday.
Did sprint install the Carrier Optimization on these Note 5s? Also was carrier aggregation turned ON for these phones. My says not setup or something like that.
I got my MSL and found that MSL is turned on even thought it says CA-Not Config in *#0011#. I dont think these suckers have the sprint connection optimizer.

If you are referring to the connections optimizer app, it's there under wifi settings.

No. If you go to more then go to wifi optimization.
Looks like there is something called a smart switch. that is about. Connections manager had this whole disclaimer. I dont see that anymore.
wording is a little switched around but does look like connection optimizer.
Smart switch I believe is something used when switching devices

Bump. Would like to know this as well. I live in a 2x carrier aggregation city. I've yet to see a SCC value in the ##debug# > LTE Engineering menu.

Yes the Not 5 is capable of Sprint Carrier Aggregation. Thanks.
I do not see any option for 'Smart Switch' or anything like that under Wifi settings...I am on the Sprint Note5.. kinda trippy
##data# shows that CA is enabled, so I suppose this phone does support carrier aggregation.

It was under settings>wifi>more but in my Rom it's no longer listed there.
It does support CA, the speeds in my area under B41 are night and day compared to my Note 4 that I gave my daughter.

It would be great if you had a screenshot to show. In "more" for me (stock rom) I see: Smart Network Switch, Advanced, and Help. My attached screenshot shows what's under advanced.
Thanks for the help.

Key word from what I said: was.
The option was there in more but I no longer see it.
I have an unlocked Pixel 3 on the ATT network. Very happy with the phone thus far with only one issue. When trying to enable the hotspot I get an error stating "To enable go to att.com/my wireless or dial 611". I do have hotspot on my plan and I have modified the APN with ATT's suggested parameters. I did a web search and saw some had the same issue on the Pixel 2 but could not find a solution. Any help?

Anyone else having this issue ?? It connects fine but no internet at all. I have a Chinese device with Global rom
I had the same thing with my carrier in Japan. I no longer run stock so I don't have a solution for you. Sorry.

Anyone having this issue ? I'm wondering if it has to do with the global ROM?
Ok phone Verizon and they were able to fix it. Apparently all they had to do is turn the feature off and back on

What did you say to Verizon when you called? I just spoke with them and they turned off the hotspot feature, then re-synced the network settings and it's still doing the "Connected, no internet". Did you have them change anything else or change any other settings on the phone?
Does anyone have any more information on this issue? I just went in to a Verizon store and watched them disable the feature, rebooted my phone, and still have the same "Connected, no internet" issue. I know the hotspot on my account works since I can put my SIM in my LG V30 and use it fine. Any other suggestions?? It's not a huge deal but I would really like to get the hotspot working
