I just recently purchased a Sprint Note 5 from someone and it seems to work great, I did check with the Sprint store and Swappa to ensure a clean ESN. But what i am wondering is that when I go to the settings menu there is no Mobile Network menu. I have looked everywhere for it, does the Sprint model not come with it? I even clicked edit undrr the quick settings and it shows Mobile Networks as a selection and when i check it off and return to the main menu it doesnt show up under the quick settings. It is unrooted and stock. I did just upgrade to 6.0.1 yesterday as well.
Any ideas would be helpful.
I have the Mobile Networks menu.
Inside of that menu you have the option to select your Network mode...which I use when traveling internationally.
Why dont I have that menu then?
Because yours is a chinese knock off. RIP.

I am running Android 5.0.1 on my Nexus 5 and my carrier is Sprint. I need to change my APN settings, but I can't seem to find them. All the posts I find say to go to, " Applications > Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names", but those are instructions for previous versions of Android. I have not been able to find the location in Android 5. Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm Running Android 5.0.1 too and my access point settings are under Settings > More > Mobile networks > Access point names? How far are you able to get by following those instructions?

I don't have the mobile networks option.
I've attached a picture of my "more" option.

Go in to the "secret dialer" menu. Open your dialer and type *#*#46363#*#*, go to "Phone Information", and scroll down. There'll be a menu labled "Set preferred network type". Your phone is CDMA and mine is GSM, so the options might be different than what I see. Just choose the one with the most options (with LTE of course). Wait several moments and see if you've got a data connection.
EDIT: I just noticed in your pictures that you're connected to WiFi. Maybe the APN settings don't show up unless you're connected through cellular data? They show up on mine when connected to WiFi, but one phone is a Samsung running 4.2.2, and the other is a Nexus 4 running a custom 4.4.4 ROM, so that could be different from stock Lollipop.
Dumb question perhaps, but are you sure you didn't accidentally toggle your data off?

*#*#46363#*#* didn't work for me. When I finished typing it, the number just disappeared.

Update profile and update PRL. Neither of these options actually work.

Hmm, that seems strange, would it be possible for you to change ROM to a custom, and then see if you could access network settings? If not then maybe try a simple factory reset?

Yeah that sounds good. Best of luck!
Is there a way to switch the network mode (2G/3G/4G/LTE) on the AT&T LG V10? I can't seem to find the setting or a code to enter in to get to the menu.
Thanks!

277634#*# RAT-SELECTION I don't know another way.

I have a LG V10. Though I am on T-Mobile network provider.
If I want to change frequencies (which is what I think you are asking). You need to select the "Preferred Network Mode".
You do this by going to your "settings" > then click the "more" then click "Mobile Networks" then click "Network Mode" then select the the frequency the radio will operate on. Your choices are;
GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto
GSM/WCDMA auto
WCDMA only
GSM only
Hope that helps.

So, what i have to do?? i was working on 4G and when i installed a battery saving app. it convert mobile to 2G for saving battery and then un-installed the App, but cant revert mobile back to 4G.
I originally posted this in the General section by mistake so i moved it to here. I just recently purchased a Sprint Note 5 from someone and it seems to work great, I did check with the Sprint store and Swappa to ensure a clean ESN. But what i am wondering is that when I go to the settings menu there is no Mobile Network menu. I have looked everywhere for it, does the Sprint model not come with it? I even clicked edit undrr the quick settings and it shows Mobile Networks as a selection and when i check it off and return to the main menu it doesnt show up under the quick settings. It is unrooted and stock. I did just upgrade to 6.0.1 yesterday as well.
Any ideas would be helpful.
Do calls, texts, data, mms all work fine?
I don't have Sprint as my carrier, I'm using T-Mobile. I bought the phone from someone and thought I wouldid unlock it but it's a pain to do. I just happen to be browsing the phone and noticed that the Mobile Network is not there.
Hi guys,
I've been running the stock rom (6.0.1) with RingPlus for about 4 months now, and just got word that they were discontinuing service. I canceled my service with them and have moved to Tello, which many of the users on RingPlus were saying was a painless switch. I've received my Tello phone number, and activation/provisioning instructions, which I've followed several times. I'm able to make and receive phone calls, but don't have 3g or LTE data.
From my experiences with Nexus devices and AT&T MVNO's my gut says it's an APN setting, but when I browse to the APN list the whole list is grayed out and unchecked, the add button is also grayed out.
Does anyone know how to open this up?
This issue is solved. I used a hidden menu (##3282#) to view my APN settings and they were being pulled from Tello. Later in the day my phone randomly did a prl update (several dozen had been done since posting this thread) and after that update everything worked. My best guess is that the line wasn't fully activated.
Hi Thunderbolt,
My phone is rooted and after putting in the MSL and dig down I have the same issue as APN Type and many other options are greyed out. I'm with Sprint. Looks like you haven't done anything and it automatically became available. What's Tello? Do I need to install any otger app to get the access? Thanks.
I'm on Stock TouchWiz Marshmallow on my S5 Sport G860P and my APN settings aren't greyed out, but they don't save when I add the proper APN for my FreedomPop SIM I received yesterday.
Is there a way to unlock this phone for free? I bought it on Ebay used and it has a clean ESN. I'm not the original owner so I don't have to Sprint account number and I may not be able to get it because it was purchased from a reseller.

What does it mean to use a hidden menu? And what is Tello? I am having this problem as well and would love to fix it. My issue is ultimately about not sending and receiving MMS consistently. But having the prn menu grayed out isn't helping my efforts to fix it.
Thanks!

Open dialer Punch in ##3282# this brings up the hidden menu for a lot of things.. Choose edit, and if it ask for you MSL enter it, then go to apn settings and you can add one, it should not be greyed out.
