I finally got my T-Mobile htc one on MetroPCS on $60.00 a month account with Taxes and fees included on the same payment, I'm now saving $15.00 and I'm on T-Mobile network but on MetroPCS payment plans everything working Voice over Gsm, 4g over UMTS HSPS+, 4G LTE. With great data speeds.
But there's one flaw!!! WIFI CALLING IS NOT WORKING...

Is the 4gLTE speed the same as T-Mobile?

It won't work either for one of two reasons
First it works strictly thru tmobile SIM card , even tho you get tmo lte
Second the WiFi calling error means that you have to add update 911 address under your My T-Mobile account and then it works
I don't believe using a metro SIM In any tmo Device will get WiFi calling ever ,mainly cause it's alot to do with the tmo sim service the Main reachable service is still metro towers that's why .

I am wanting to set this up too. Metro PCS has good service in my area but they said they're having trouble with the GSM phones connecting to their 4G LTE network. T-Mobile's voice and text work great where I'm at and my brother is on Metro with one of their CDMA phones and his service works well. I literally just got my HTC One today and so far at my house I'm only getting 'G' which I assume is 1x or Edge service correct? When I reboot the phone and it initially connects to 4G and then drops it. I'm wondering if I take it to Metro and have them put it on their network if the 4G will work better? I wouldn't think it would impact it that much though. I have 30 days to try it out before I lose out on being able to return it and I'm all about saving money so switching to Metro is a big deal to me but I need my 4G too!

I'm no longer in Metropcs CDMA or Their Ericsson LTE network. I'm now on T-Mobile Gsm and LTE network under Nokia but with Metropcs Account. 2 different networks, so that means when you where on MetroPCS cdma and LTE you where on their original lte footprint with Ericsson lte sites, tmobile is planning to unite Metropcs lte with tmobile Nokia lte. But it will take some time.

Thats kool it is something you could have done setup from phone at home in 3 minutes tho...just sayin...
Glad it worked tho.
So to sum it up your saying you get actual tmobile WiFi calling with a actual metro 4g SIM card in a tMobile device ?
Not the same WiFi calling as my metro but I mean the tmobile exclusive WiFi calling .
That's very weird that that works using a metro SIM ..cause it's suppose to be a tmo sim cars thing also that has a lot to do with how it works .

I have a Verizon SG4 with AT&T SIM working, voice and data. Data is only H+.
How can I get 4G or LTE?
Thank you!
How did you get ATT working? Just pop in the Sim card and enter the APNs? And LTE won't work, Verizon GS3 has Non Att LTE bands.

Yup, just popped in the SIM, went to AT&T store, copied in the APN from a working sg4, and voice and HSPA+ data works.
I have a SG4 not sg3. Doesnt teh SG4 have the same frequency bands?
Here is a tip buy an att phone if you're gonna use att
Lte bands for Verizon and att are different your lte won't ever work on att with a Verizon phone

I'm thinking about using my Verizon S4 with Airvoice, an ATT mnvo. I don't care about LTE but can you post what the APN settings you entered are ?
I have recently had this phone come into my possession, and had put in my ATT Sim to see if it would work. After switching to global mode and adding an APN, it connected. The only thing is it refuses to connect to LTE. Is it possible to run ATT LTE on the Verizon version? It runs the MK2 software.

As far as ive heard its different LTE bands (radios/modems)
A few guys have gotten LTE to show on their att compatible straight talk sim cards which is the same as any att sim. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672843

If you're in an area where AT&T is pushing out AWS band 4, you'll get LTE. That's because the band is compatible with the AWS bands that VZ uses. If not, you'll get HSPA+ (or worse).

Just got mine from expansys and got a new sim card. set everything up including installing the AT&T apn file, but still i can't get internet access. Any ideas?
D6503 or D6502? If D6503, LTE ticked on in quick settings?

Check APNs for sure.
I had to go into settings > more (wireless & network) from there you can download Internet settings

To get LTE do not give your z2's imei to AT&T since they need to have an IMEI of an AT&T LTE enabled phone in their system to be able to provision LTE. ( I'm using the imei from my m7). So, put in the sim card, go to where you have WIFI, download the apn, enable LTE or 4G, restart your phone and LTE should work. I figured this out after spending several hours with a supervisor in tech support.

+1. I just swapped in the sim from my Note 3 and used the 'download internet settings' and it works. As was mentioned, '4G' is LTE; I ran a few speed tests to confirm.

Everytime I use download internet settings, nothing seems to happen?
Yeah I was able to fix the problem by using the cingular apn setting, but that was on the 55 firmware, I updated to the 69 firmware and the default at&t apn settings that you can download to the phone worked. I have a D6503.
I am on ATT, I don't get the LTE icon, only 4G symbol, speed seems fine, but no LTE icon, APN setting was set when I download the MMS setting,
for those Z2 users on ATT, do you have LTE icon on your phone ?
The LTE & 4G icons seem to depend on which firmware you're running. It looks like 55 showed LTE, 69 showed 4G and 402 went back to LTE.

Yeah I'll also comfirm the firmware icon changes. .69 removed the LTE icon for me too. No worries, speed is still the same.
Can you use other off brand but ATT network SIM card like H20 or Net10 to download LL to update this phone?
I got the update using an NET10 SIM. It went smoothly.

Not any but most. Cricket Wireless for example will not work. I don't have a list unfortunately.
I believe the deciding factor has to do with if the carrier uses the AT&T network or their own. A carrier can still use AT&T towers without actually using the AT&T network. It's confusing ...

Can you explain the steps? Did you have to register your Net10 SIM card first?
I used to use NET10, but the line it's not active any more. However, when I put the SIM into my phone, AT&T network is reported and only emergency calls are allowed. I checked the update through a WiFi and could download and run the update. Thereafter I can use it with T-Mobile and Cricket. Though Cricket uses AT&T network, you cannot get the update through them. The network is reported as cricket instead of AT&T, maybe that's why.
