Hi, In prep for all of us that ordered a developer edition, could you please supply us with the APN setup for MMSC, LTE, SMS etc. We most likely will need this to get anything more than a phone call through.
I don't think we will have to manually enter the APN. It should load the "phone" APN automatically.

I am not sure. I would hope the SIM will somehow hit the network and grab the APN settings for all areas but I also have heard of unlocked phones needing a manual entry. Anyone with an unlocked phone on At&t give us the settings please just in case. Even a new HTC one branded owner can look for us.

Thanks. Is that the only apn we need? What about the wap.cingular? Will this enable hspa and lte?
Hi,
I've tried all the APN setting but it does not work for me.
I wonder if this has something to do with my data plan. I have this old unlimited data plan, and my previous cell was Samsung S3 GT-I9300, which does not support 4G. I put in my sim and selected AT&T, but It shows ""connection failed due to incorrect apn setting".
I appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks!
Call AT&T. Have them switch your plan to unlimited lte.
That solved my problem. Thanks!!
I have a Tmobile HTC One and have unlocked SIM, now attempting to jump on ATT network. I got a SIM from an ATT store, but get no response when putting in APN settings. Any advice. Thanks a lot for your help.

Do they have an unlimited LTE plan and will it change the price when we switch to it?

If you have Unlimited already, they will activate LTE on your account and the price is the same.

I should have clarified. I have a smartphone that shows up as a non-smartphone in their system. That is $15 for unlimited. I suppose they won't let me keep that price/plan.

Has any of the new owners try to use an at&t phone sim card in the JS to access the internet?
I ask because when I bought the Galaxy Tab 7 I couldnt use it out of the box, I had to root it and change the Rom in order to use it.

not sure, haven't tried, but what I will say is it is set to use the tablet/laptopconnect broadband apn. so putting you phone sim in would require you to use the wap.cingular apn which you would have to add manually to the apn list as it isn't there. i don't see why it wouldn't work and at&t would notice that your sim doesn't belong in the device as it is a valid registered imei in their system and not unknown like an unlocked tablet.
Does the 4g LTE require a new Sim Card? Is it different from the 3g sim card?

I am not sure but I dont think so because it is also H+ capable but my question is about a Data only Sim and not the same as the phones use.
AT&T uses new/different SIM cards for LTE. When I bought my Jetstream, they showed me the 2 SIM cards that work with LTE devices and complained that the SIM cards aren't obviously marked as LTE cards. 1 is for postpaid and 1 is for pre-paid. They hadn't received shipments of the LTE cards yet, even though we're in an LTE market, so they have to use the one in the LTE device's box. My AT&T 3G SIM card only gets HSPA+ in the Jetstream.

Ok so it works? And is your phone sim?
It shows the HSPA+ icon rather than LTE, and the wireless settings show it's connected to the HSDPA network. However, the built-in broadband APN doesn't work with my 3G smartphone SIM, I'd have to create a MediaNet APN and try to connect.
pdagal,
Using the same SIM as in the Focus my display first says:
A&T Initalizing... (Please Wait)
After a few minutes (long, long wait) it says... gave up waiting.
Anything special you had to do to get the unit to work using other ATT SIM?
You may need to get 4G HSPA+ enabled on your account and SIM. Several months ago I was using an HTC HD7S and it wouldn't work in AT&T's HSPA+ phones for data. I had to call up and tell them I was testing an Inspire 4G and needed HSPA+ enabled on my SIM.
That won't get you working LTE (that requires a different SIM), but hopefully you'll at least get HSPA+.
MANY thanks, will do that tomorrow.
3g SIM
Your existing 3G SIM (depending on age) will just simply need to be provisioned for LTE.
As well as the APN is different. Without updating your SIM you'll only get HSUPA or 3G.
Thanks, appreciate the info.
Hm Interesting. I have a unlocked dev jetstream and I tried putting in my 3G/HSDPA Sim with a active phone and data, and it'll only hook on edge, while same sim card in my phone can grab HSDPA instantly. Not sure why...

I'm not sure if your question was answered, I just placed my sim from my SGII on my Jetstream and it works. I had to add the APN "phone", that's all i did. I'm getting decent data speeds 4.5, 4.8, 5.3, 3.9 down and 2.9, 3.3, 3.1, 2.8 up.
There were two apns there, I believe one was activate and the other broadband.

Forgot to mention the card was from T-Mobile. I just got a post-paid 25$ 2GB plan from at&t to play with, maybe I'll try the apn and see if it works.

Put your sim card back in your phone and dial 611, and tell them what you did. They will unblock your data. After you hang up, reboot the phone.
Thank You So Much !!! Ok Sholud I not put my sim in my js anymore ?
I have rooted and unlocked my phone using elegantica. When I do WiFi thether my laptop says limited connectivity. Any ideas.. I tried setting profile to generic And generic ics ans fox routing option.. still no go.
Honestly, don't expect much help since tethering violates your contract
Slithered from my HTC One X+
Not if I am paying for it. Its just not working.
This sounds like an apn problem. It sounds like me, where tethering is indeed just part of your data plan on ATT so there are a couple files hard coded to provision tether which an aftermarket Rom may not have them still hard coded.
I'd Google att apn and then create a new apn using those settings like we did on T-Mobile.

It's shocking what you let networks get away with in america. If T-Mobile in the UK turned round tomorrow and said "You can't use the wifi hotspot on your phone without paying extra". They'd be bankrupt by close of business. Lol

Did it for years myself but since every good carrier has data caps its pointless to tether :/ and they have gotten pretty good at catching people, they send you a text saying "hey we know you have been tethering, enjoy your new more expensive data plan"
I guess I've just gotten used to it just got home WiFi and learned to use that instead
Slithered from my HTC One X+
Tethering is the only thing that makes me sorely miss my Galaxy Nexus. I had gotten tethering to work on AT&T with hacking my Atrix 4G before it, but I can't get it to work on the HTC One X+. I obviously have broadband at home and Wifi access at work, and COX just introduced free WiFi access at a lot of external locations around me free for use by it's customers, so I just need tethering in certain times...and it's these times that I wish I can get it to work on my HOX+ to get my Nexus 7 online.

Buy the phone from T-Mobile, unlock it via on of the reliable online unlocking services, unlock the phone. If you have an existing AT&T account with LTE, its easy as slipping in the sim. If not, its a little trickier, AT&T will generally restrict non-AT&T phones to 3G/4G --> No LTE. If you are activating a new account, you will need to provide them an IMEI from an AT&T branded phone with LTE, they will then provision your account for LTE service. Some people use a fiends old AT&T LTE phone, or from another source.

I have a TMOBILE S5 - I didnt' want to wait for the "Free way" of unlocking a sim card so I purchased the code form a web site that offers this - there may be a free way to do this sometime soon - but I didn;t have the patience to wait - do a GOOGLE SEARCH - you'll find several that offer this service.
I have no restrictions on my phone - 3G/4G/LTE - awesome speeds on ATT LTE network - =
If you have an existing AT&T account, its easy. The trickier part is if you are a new customer, the T-Mobile S5 IMEI wont be registered in their database as an LTE device, so it will default to non-LTE speeds.
Some people have had success with really helpful non-corporate AT&T stores at adding the non AT&T branded phone into the database, but most won't and so you need to get creative. You'd probably have better luck convincing an independent dealer to do this, like a mall kiosk etc. as they will want the commission from the activation. Some people have had luck using the IMEI from a demo phone at the store (Can be from any LTE device), or a friends old device etc.
The key is that it needs to be an AT&T branded LTE phone so your account can be correctly provisioned with LTE, otherwise you will be stuck in 4G land. Another way you can do it is also to call in later and switch the IMEI to an AT&T LTE device, get the account provisioned and then put the sim in the T-Mobile S5.

That's not true, it does register as an LTE device. i gave them my IMEI off the T-mobile Galaxy S5 and they added it to the biller, and then asked them what does it show up as in the biller, they read it off as a Samsung SM-G900T. not a Samsung SM-G900A. Heck, even my Nexus 5 shows up as it should as a LG D820, which is the model.
Well just to let everyone know. I bought an unlock code from unlockfusion and 48 hours later it still hasn't arrived but I bought one from cellunlocker.net and my phone is now unlocked

Yes, if they add your IMEI into their system, you are fine. Many stores and CSR's will not do this however, in which case you need to figure out a workaround. Stores are paid a higher commission for selling and activating a branded phone that they are for an unlocked off network device.

For this that are using the T-Mobile S5 on AT&T. Sounds like LTE and everything is working well. My question is, for this who have rooted and using different roms. Have you seen the lag go away? Is the phone a better experience. I love my M8 but I just love the thinner feel of the S5 but I cannot live without root and roms. Please help before I drop $650. LOL

Those using T-Mobile's S5 on AT&T, can you comment on reception, preferably LTE?

There is virtually no difference from my old SM-G900A to my new SM-G900T. I'm using a custom ROM (see signature) with zero reception issues. My LTE is 24Mbps down and 11Mbps up. That's out in the boonies where I work, it's usually better at home.

I pulled 25mbps down and 14mbps up in Knoxville TN. If you are in a weak signal area it does seem to drop signal a little more frequently.
I just got my Ultra.
Took the sim card out of my Nexus 5 and put it into the Ultra. I immediately got some text messages but can't get internet working. I took it out and put it back in and still the same thing. I'm of course in a place where I had signal on my old phone.
I have the C6833 International Version and all my research said it would work fine on the T mobile LTE network.
Anyone have any idea what's going on??????

WOW that worked! Awesome thanks man! All of those fields were empty for some reason.
I was about to try to return the phone because I couldn't find anything online about this. If you pm me with your email I'll paypal you $5 for your trouble
