For some reason I can not use the Android Market or the Browser (pretty much anything that uses internet) on my normal 4G Network, I have to be connected to wifi. How can I fix this?

Every non stock rom I have tried has failed to give me a data connection. I have reentered APN Settings many times, switched and copied RILS, tried all the roms with the HSPA+ patch/fix. Only this rom has worked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1850831. But development has halted. Best I can figure is that Msh3abJB's updated APNS XML made a difference. Tried copying it onto other roms and it still did not work. Can anybody help me?
Have you tried changing your modem to see if that makes any difference? Also, when you add your APN settings, do they save?

Yes, I have changed modems and my APN Settings do save. I have even enabled HSDPA/HSUPA in Device settings/options.
I have flashed a custom ROM and calls/text works but internet data isn't working,
I have activated Mobile data from the drop down list,
Mobile Network: HSDPA
Mobile Network State: Disconnected

Looks like you need to input your APN settings. Go to settings> More> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names and then add your proper APN's from there.
If you don't know your APN settings use a free app called tweakker from the play store it gets them for you automatically.

True enough it's a hell of a lot quicker to use tweakker though.

So im new here and i had a problem with my android.. my phone was bricked and later i unbricked it and the phone works fine now but i can't use the internet, i saw that i have no APN and i can't add it... I don't know what to do and how to get back.. can anyone help ?
If you can't manually add the APN you may want to try another ROM to see if it auto detects your settings or at the very least allows you manually add an APN.

I've seen it mentioned in a couple of threads, but haven't found a definitive answer or solution yet. Has anyone managed to get a working hotspot hack up and running to bypass the T-Mobile upsell page? The existing method of using SQLite Editor to edit settings.db doesn't seem to work for me. I love this phone, but really miss my hotspot from the Note 3.
Any help is certainly appreciated.

I tried (using out of the box settings) but didn't even see a connection pop up on devices scanning for networks when turning hotspot on. Are there settings that I need to be using other than the default?
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
Yeah I think there alternate settings you need to use. I had to setup other ones for the s4.
I haven't rooted my s5 yet so I can't test and let you know.

I have been using WiFI Tether Router for a long while now. It gives you unrestricted tethering. Make sure to read the instructions for T-Mobile phones on the developers Web page. https://sites.google.com/site/wifitetherrouter/home/device-configuration it works great as long as you are rooted. I use about 120GB a month with 2 AT&T phones tethering off of me at work. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter

I'm trying to make APN changes the Wifi Tether app says need to be made but the T-Mobile network is greed out in the settings. Is their a way to fix that?
My apn settings are gray also. I tried adding a new apn with correct settings but my phone switches back to original apn automatically.

ok, I bought the app and configured it according to the instructions and I was able to connect the iPad. The performance is horrible. When I use the native T-Mobile Tethering everything loads fast with no buffering. Could there be something I;ve done wrong? What are your S5 settings?
How were you able to change the APN Settings?

hmm. That seems to be what I need but the Tutorial makes the assumption that I have the ability to navigate to the proper system files and edit them. I tried and using windows explorer, I cannot find the system folder. If you could, would you make a Noob Guide TuT so that us Non-Devs could have WiFi Tethering? I know that implies work for you and I hate it when that happens to me, so maybe you could point to a beginners guide to get started?

First your phone needs to be rooted, then you need to have ES File Explorer installed on your phone. You can use ES File Explorer to edit the file in the system folder.
1. Open ES File Explorer
2. Pull up the Menu for it (hold down the multitask button for that)
3. Tap on Tools
4. Turn on Root Explorer
5. Tap on Root Explorer on the left side and go to Mount R/W
6. Make sure all of the settings are set to RW, tap OK
7. Up top tap / that should take you to the root of the phone,
Now you should be able to follow the instructions from the previous link i sent you to Jovy's TuT. Make sure to also edit the one above the Tethering APN and enable it to be editable.
When you click on the file it opens it up in read only, you have to hit the menu in the top right corner to edit the file.
Be very careful and only change what he tells you to change. I would make a back up of the file and place it somewhere you know you can find it.
Once you have enabled the APN and saved the file restart your phone. Once you are restarted navigate to where the APN's are. System Settings, More Networks, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names. Once you are there click on the top right corner and tap Reset to Default. That should pull down the new settings so you can edit your APN settings.
Then follow these instructions.
Need to change your APN, simply navigate to Settings > More > Mobile networks > Access Point Names. Select your T-Mobile APN, and scroll to APN protocol. Change this to IPv4, and then save your APN
I think that covers everything that I did.
wifi tether router working
Ok so I got it working. I folloed Jovys instructions from step 3. Instead of changing to epic.t-mobile.com change it to fast.t-mobile.com then 5 lines up where it says ipv6 change it to ipv4. Then go to apn settings and reset to default.
