I’ve figured out a way to get tethering to work once with my Lumia 920 on ATT.
The below process has to be repeated every time so it is not really a solution but may help somebody smarter figure out a solution.
Insert ATT SIM
Enable internet sharing (fails with call ATT message)
Insert Vodfone SIM ( I assume any non active sim will work, this one is from an old blackberry )
Enable internet sharing (fails)
Insert ATT SIM
Enable internet sharing (works!)
Only works once though, when you disable and re-enable it goes back to the call ATT message.
Somebody needs to jailbreak this phone so we can change whatever registry setting is causing this.
I'm able to use tethering on my ATT 920 using the access point app, I just re-added the APN settings and that's it
note: I'm using it on a non ATT network

It is known this works fine on other networks if you manage to unlock the 920.
What people want to do is get tethering working on AT&T. It's basically impossible, though. It quickly loads the APN settings when there is an AT&T SIM, and that includes checking the tethering entitlement. We have no registry access so we can't change this behavior, even with the Access Point app. You could on WP7 devices if you had registry access, the same modification should work if there ever is a way to get registry access on WP8.
I tried AT&T ROM, Rogers ROM, and Euro Dev ROM. All of them checked entitlement and told me to call AT&T. I was able to get the Rogers ROM to tether once on first bootup, probably due to the same quirk that allows it to work the way the OP described. Overall it's not a very feasible solution, especially since opening the SIM slot is a pain on the 920. Tethering is one reason why my 920 has been relegated to being a secondary phone and why I use my GN2. Even though I don't really like Android, it is easily modified to allow tethering whether AT&T is happy about it or not.
Ok I understand.
Sidenote: How did you manage to install a non AT&T ROM? I always get the FFU device id mismatch when trying to put a non AT&T rom on the phone.

NCS will allow you to flash the Rogers pre-portico ROM. You can now flash Rogers and Euro ROMs, not sure about AT&T. From there you use the built in upgrade functionality to get Portico. Once you have portico NCS will let you flash Rogers Portico and Euro Portico ROMs. But I was not able to get back to pre-portico or to AT&T from there. I was flashing a 920 with a defective proximity sensor that I mailed back to AT&T the next day, so it didn't really matter.
LTE connectivity was giving issues with non-AT&T ROM. Rogers ROM took a while to connect to LTE (much longer than AT&T ROM) and the Euro ROM never really seemed to connect to LTE.

Since the ##3282 field test menu does not work on AT&T lumia 920 firmware past 1249, I have not updated my phone. Well actually I did, but then flashed back because I wanted the field test menu back more than anything else the update may have improved. I would like to update my phone to future ROM's but am unwilling to give up the ability to switch network speed. Has anyone flashed another ROM past 1249 meant for a different phone and/or carrier and still had full network functionality on AT&T (mainly LTE and internet sharing working) and also been able to access ##3282 field test or select network speed from cellular settings?

I would like to know this as well if anyone finds a solution to disable Lte on the latest firmware.
I have an AT&T Nokia Lumia 920, unlocked, using on T-Mobile US.
Simply wanted to know if there are any benefits of flashing European, Asian or any other ROMs.
For typical usage, the phone works fine for me. Edge connection sucks sometimes. Things that bother me are:
1)Limited MMS settings. i.e. no option to toggle SMS/MMS delivery confirmation
2)No internet sharing - even though I don't use AT&T
3)AWS band locked
Just looking for thoughts...
off topic, you are getting ability to send/receive MMS. I had to instal Lumia Pusher App and push APN App and after installed, i went to settings APN settings was at the bottom. and once i tapped on it, the T-Mobile APN was there inactive. All i had to do was tap on it and it activated. all works fine and dandy.
back on topic,
I thought you are able to flash to dev rom and that allowed to to the tethering. but would be a pain posibble brick if you were to revert back
check here they talk about it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2271450
i might try another day or week because it takes time, being a family man, i cannot afford 4-6 hours of downloads and flashing to test, but sooner or later
good luck
I pay for T-Mobile (US, on a Rogers Lumia) tethering, and it's been working great for me on HSPA+. Had to do the keyboard trick a few times to get it working since I installed Access Point some time ago, but otherwise fine.
A few days ago my area got refarmed with LTE, which gives a new indicator by the signal bar ('LTE') and also is resulting in some nice speeds.
The problem is, it's creating a new tethering issue. When I'm on an LTE signal and try to enable Internet Sharing, I get a message about 'not having a cell connection'. I do seem to have one, as I can make and receive calls just fine, and data works fine as well. This is a new message. If I'm in an area with just HSPA+ sharing works again.
Is this a Rogers ROM restriction, an Access Point restriction, or an issue on Tmo's end? Hopefully not the latter, I don't think I'm going to get anywhere with a rep on this issue.
Don't install Access Point app, it disables the internet sharing option.

Yeah, I realize that, and have been able to get around that message with the 'foreign keyboard' hack, but the message I'm getting now is different than that one, and the hack doesn't affect it.

Factory reset the phone, didn't install access point, same issue. I can enable tethering on 4G but as soon as I get an LTE signal, tethering is blocked in the Internet Sharing settings page with a message saying "no cell connection found" or something similar, even though I have both a working LTE connection and cell connection on the phone.
Rogers ROM issue, maybe?
Factory reset doesn't help?

I was thinking of doing a factory reset until I read this.
Has anyone found a workaround? I tried doing the tricks like resetting the APN or putting in a dummy APN and still, no joy.
Is this a Rogers ROM issue and is there an alternative to get Internet Sharing AND MMS working at the same time (other than the purchase of another phone)? TIA

I don't recall having MMS issues, though it's possible I never recieved any. The tethering fix I finally settled on was just switching back to '3G' in the cellular settings, which gets me 4G HSPA+ tethering which was good enough for my purposes. It's almost certainly a restriction of the Rogers ROM.

I tried the 3G tethering with reboot and it still gives me the upsell message.
Are there other ROMs that will work with the Rogers Lumia 920? Or will that brick the phone?
I remember with the Lumia 900 I could use a Mexican Firmware to get MMS and Tethering that worked great but I heard (months ago) of people bricking their Rogers 920s by putting on AT&T ROMs.

Do you get an upsell message, or a "cellular data not enabled" message?
For the former, installing and then removing a foreign language keyboard update via the keyboard settings will still work, if you actually do have T-Mobile tethering on your line. You still won't be able to tether on LTE though, because you'll get the "cellular connection not enabled message".

I've heard of people having success with the Euro Dev firmware, if you have an unlocked phone. Though after Nokia's locking-down of Naviform it's going to be harder to find that. And no, don't flash an AT&T ROM, it will screw you up.

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.
The keyboard trick used to work perfectly but no longer works for me (I tried adding different ones and restarting, no joy).
I do pay for 500MB of tethering on T-Mobile USA and they insist it should work when I call. There is a problem with the phone that reads: "Add Internet sharing? Your current data plan doesn't include Internet sharing. Do you want to open an app from your mobile operator to add it? Internet sharing uses your cellular data and may incur additional charges 'yes' 'no'".
I didn't hear about Nokia locking down Naviform. Lame. Maybe I can find someone who has a copy that can do the firmware update for me.
Euro Dev firmware might be an option if I can find Naviform. Have to re-install Windows on my Mac Laptop via Bootcamp. Think I have to do a bit of work to pull one of the two hard drives and re-install the DVD drive which I pulled out a few weeks ago to have more space. Sadly, I deleted my Windows partition. :silly:
However... I never installed Access Point on my wife's Lumia 920 and her sharing works (though no reliable MMS). I may just swap phones with her since she never uses internet sharing.
one of the OTA updates fixed this
I need to get my Data and calls working with this Verizon S5.
I bought it at an authorized T-MOBILE dealer without realizing it was a Verizon model.
They unlocked it but obviously didn't do it right. The Verizon Internet APN is still showing but cannot remove and cannot delete. Data and calls do not work when adding T-Mobile APN info, either. I have a constant message along the top saying "This SIM card is from an unknown source". I get a similar message when trying to make phone calls. Sometimes they will go through but only intermittently.
I want to know.....
Can I put a T-Mobile ROM on my SM-G900V without bricking it and get Data and calling back? Has this been successfully done before? Links? Any idea on how to get the Verizon S5 working properly on the T-Mobile network at all?
The guys at the store are idiots, will not help, screwed me over saying i signed some kind of doc agreeing to a 72 hour return policy, not a 14-day return policy... My fault for not reading the fine print, yes... But their intentions were to screw people over from the beginning. Makes me want to just "RAAAAAAAWWR"
********EDIT**********
I did find a thread in the QnA by searching for "Unlock" and he has successfully put a t-mobile ROM on it, so why does his data work and mine doesn't ??? Any ideas?? I cannot completely test the theory at the moment because i'm at work but i am posting this in case anyone knows why the data would not work. I'm in the process of contacting Verizon directly to see if they have anything of use, but i doubt it.
That sounds like your device isn't actually unlocked.
Just flashing a different carrier firmware don't unlock the phone from my understanding.
Verizon s5 (and s4) are carrier unlocked. I use both on T-Mobile with no issues
I have done this with 2 iPhone 5s's, an i545 Verizon S4 (which I loved), a N900V Verizon Galaxy Note 3 and now on an SM-G900V Verizon S5. All are carrier unlocked out of the box and work with T-Mobile. There are a few caveats.
For the android devices, here is what you can do without obtaining root:
1. if you remove your Verizon SIM and put in the T-Mobile SIM calls should work without any change except you need to be in global mode. In settings, change settings/connections/more networks/mobile networks/network mode/ to global.
2. To get data working, go to settings/connections/more networks/mobile networks/access point names and edit the T-Mobile settings. The name does not matter, but the APN should be fast.t-mobile.com
3. To get MMS you have to change a few other settings (but leave all others unchanged):
MMSC should be http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC should be 310
MNC should be 260
APN Type should be default,mms/supl,dun
4. You can't remove the "SIM is from an unknown source" message without root. I believe you can stop the message by holding the notification until you find the app info, and then force stop it. But it will return after any reboot.
If you are willing to root your phone (I used Towelroot), in addition to the above you can:
5. Remove the message about the SIM by freezing "Setup Wizard 1.0" using Titanium Backup
6. Using the app "Advanced Signal Status" you can set your phone to LTE/GSM only so it no longer looks for CDMA service
Summary: Changing Verizon S4, Note 3 and S5 phones (as well as the iPhones) to T-Mobile service is not difficult. I switched carriers completely for my entire 5 line contract without changing phones. I now have unlimited data on 4 of the 5 phones (one user does not need much), and my monthly bill is half of my old Verizon service. Yes - HALF.

It works, but may loose a bit of benefits when it comes to Network, since the Verizon doesn't have all T-Mobile bands, but close enough.

i will verify everything he said above as true as i have done the same. i can also verify that you flash a tmobile rom (be sure not to flash any baseband/modem or any other partition) and you can get VoLTE to work etc... The only thing missing is the 2100 MHz radio which means HSDPA+ will not work in all areas but that is a hardware limitation.

The Verizon SM-900V does support the 2100MHz radio, Band 4 just has to be enabled. I followed these instructions to get it working properly:

Notes: It says it's for the Note 3, but it does work on the Galaxy S5. You will need to use the stock ROM with the stock dialer for this to work.
I was wondering, can you point me in the right direction to a good T-Mobile ROM to try out, that you know will work properly on the 900V? It will have to work on the stock NE9 or NI2 firmware. I just don't have a whole lot of time to test between studying and taking all of these MIT online courses. I can tell you that it really sucks having a locked bootloader though Lol.

I recently purchased a refurbished phone Samsung Galaxy S21 5G. I just got it yesterday, and found that I am not able to use my mobile network. The sale said it is factory unlocked, and according to the descriptions, it should work just fine with my US Mobile SuperLTE network as well. When I switched on the phone, I see Verizon on the screen and so, I assume that it was locked to Verizon in the past.
When I tried to change the network settings, specifically the APN settings, I get the message "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user." The three dots on the top with reset to default is also greyed out along with Network mode in the previous page. When I click Network Operators and try to connect to the network manually, I am only able to connect to Verizon Wireless and no other. But, calling and messaging seems to work fine. Is it that the unlock process has not been completed properly? Did any of you face the same problem before? It would be great if there is something that I could do to unblock the APN settings as the rest of the phone works really well. The specific model is SM-G991U.
Thanks!

So, you need to go into the settings menu and find about phone, software info. What you want to find is the CSC information.
It will basically look something like this: XAA / XAA-XAA / XAA (or some other letters like VZW or ATT or TMB etc etc.
What taht will tell you is very helpful in determining what rom the phone is running and what kind of device it was originally. Find that in your device and post it and people will help you to figure out what it means.

So the csc info is complicated, I'm no expert on it. But it does look like the OYN indicates it's a multi csc rom. It does have XAA as a part of the code, and that indicates it's 'open' for that specific part. But all the others are VZW. So it's running a vzw rom, obviously.
Your sim US Mobile uses both verizon and t-mobile networks. So it working for calls and texts makes sense, as a vzw phone. You could use patched Odin and flash a different (open) rom, but first you should verify that the device really is unlocked from vzw.
Best way to do that would probably be to insert another carriers sim card and see if it can make calls / texts. If not, it's not unlocked. But are you saying everything works now except mobile data? IOW, no internet access?
I had an international sim card at hand and I put it in. Interestingly the APN settings are no longer blocked. But, I do get a notification from setup wizard saying the inserted sim is not from Verizon and some services may not be available. But, messaging still seemed to work and I was also receiving 4G.

Oh then yer okay. That message from verizon can be gotten rid of a couple of ways; 1) use adb commands to disable the specific packages 2) use patched Odin and flash a different rom
VZW is the only rom I think that does that, and it's very annoying. I don't remember exactly which packages have to be disabled, but search google and use xda and vzw in keywords and u should find it.
The 2nd option would be my choice. It would do away with vzw crap and with an open rom you may find volte and vowifi will work also.
cheers
Thank you so much for your reply. That sounds great! To just give it a try, I tried putting in a TMobile sim and phone restarted to install software for TMobile. After that the APN settings were unlocked and now I am also able to connect to the internet using my US Moblile sim. The only problem is the the network mode is greyed out.
This rom I think only recognizes network from major telecom providers. So, just flashing with an unlocked rom would just help to unlock all the features and also remove telecom specific crap. I will try to flash it today.
Thank you again!
I also just flashed the stock firmware which is fully unlocked. And there is no bloatware from telecom OEM's. I am now able to use the network and set the APN's, but the Network Mode is still greyed out. Is it possible to know why? I am guessing that if the phone is fully unlocked, I should be able to change the Network Mode. Is there any other info that I can give you to help understand what is happening? I do not see vowifi as well.
