APN?
That's what I was thinking, do I just need to put in a tmobile APN?
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
If you look around on here I believe someone posted the Tmob APN settings you need to use. Can't remember where exactly. It should be stickied.
Here ya go. Post #7 One of those apns should work for you.

Do you have 2G for 3G or LTE on the T-Mobile network?

Im on t-mobile and this constant data drops and crappy signal in my house and everywhere u go is intolerable. I really don't wanna sign a contract but heard.good things about straight Talk. So i need advice or current user input on this matter. Or recommend me to something worth checking out. Thank you.

StaightTalk seems pretty good for at&t users who want to change carriers with minimum fuss. Your at&t note won't need any rom or modem flashing. But, you will have to unlock it and manually input the APN settings.

Well any idea on how the coverage is? Just like att? data fast?

It runs on AT&T's HSPA network. So it's the same as that. You won't get LTE though. That currently only for AT&T.

Just order a sim card online...I'm currently on ST n its got fast data speeds n good coverage
If you have an AT&T phone and plan on using ST AT&T then you don't need to unlock your phone! I'm using the GNote on straight talk AT&T without it unlocked.

We will get LTE with tmobile on the i717.........i thought att and tmobile used diffrent lte bands???
Sent from my SGH-T879 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah I'm using stock ROM rooted with stock modem. I'm pretty sure T-Mobile is using 1900mhz for LTE and ATT uses 1700. Really digging the late though. Download and upload isn't a big concern but the ping has dropped to about half of what it was. Very happy with T-Mobile. I think the lte will spread quickly like their 4G did.

T-Mobile doesn't use 1900Mhz for LTE, only AWS 1700Mhz.
Regardless the i717 doesn't support LTE over 1900Mhz.

Oh wow this is awesome!!!! Could you please get into your ServiceMode (dial *#0011#) and take a screenshot of your ServiceMode?
Did you change any of your APN settings in order to access LTE or you're running default epc.tmobile.com ?
Thanks!
I'll post a picture of it in service mode around 5pm. I'm at work right now and LTE isnt coming through the building very well. Also to answer your APN question I am indeed running the stock epc.tmobile.com. also thanks for clearing up the frequency bands ok both networks I wasn't quite sure.

I like the techie stuff. For instance, in that screenshot I can see that they're using Band 4 (AWS 1700/2100Mhz), LTE bandwidth is 5Mhz which tells me that the maximum possible download/upload speeds are 37mbps down / 12mbps up in that particular market, EARFCN 2175 means that they're using C block of the AWS spectrum which is 10Mhz slice (5Mhz used for downlink, and 5mhz for uplink).
Most consumers don't care about this kinda stuff, but I do
Thanks again!
Oh wow. Makes sense. Glad I could help and I'm sure this would help others too.

sorry if this has been answered before but i have been looking and found nothing.
i have a s3 thats unlocked that im using on cincinnati bell. right now i only get 2g speeds. i am looking for a way to get 3g or 4g speeds. i think all i have to do is change the apn settings. i called cincinnati bell support and the guy had no clue what i was talking bout and said the device isnt compatable but i know theres a way to do it. thanks in advance.

4G is not possible in the S3 unless you buy the LTE version.
Make sure you have a plan for 3G and in settings, the network mode is auto.
Also a place where you can get 3G connections.

You can use the phone on AT&T completely stock. You don't even need to be rooted. But lte will never work

I'm using the DNA on AT&T on a stock rom not rooted. So far it's running fine no issues besides some occasional signal changes going from 3G to H+.
using newtoroot's sense 5 rom on att, no issues for me, dont use mms though.
also lte will not work.

No my text show up on my lock screen with no problems. I just sent my self a text from my other phone and it's there like normal. My only beef is the signal changing from H+ to 3G constantly.

Hi
I just use a other cdma sim (not verizon) but the phone always put me in roaming while its local network
The gsm works fine
Any ideas why this is happennig?
And what shall i do to make the sim local?
Anyone in same situation here?
Cdma is different than gsm. You can't just pop in a sim and it'll work.

No, because one, there's a good chance the frequencies of the carriers don't match and two, the new carrier has to manually 'accept' his DNA, and unless you find someone who's about to quit their job to do it for you, it won't work.

Try going to settings and clicking on the mobile data icon to go into its settings and click data roaming. Might increase data charges but you might have data.

Are the APN settings correct? Please check them and make sure the APN for your carrier is entered into your phone.
