LTE on Straight Talk - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if anyone was using their Z2 on Straight Talk's T-Mobile network. That's what I'm using on mine (just got it today) and I can't seem to get LTE on it, only HSPA+. I've made sure to enable LTE and I've changed the APN settings to:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: default,mms,supl,admin,hipri
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
I know I've got LTE access where I am since I got it on my HTC One but I can't seem to get this. Thanks.

And of course I've been trying to figure this out for an hour and the second I click submit on this thread LTE pops up out of nowhere.

My AT&T atrix can't get edge on Tmobile

I unlocked and rooted my Atrix I changed the apn to t mobile I get the E but the atrix still trys to access At&T on the browser and market what am I missing???
Mine did this same thing with my carrier in Japan, I could call and text and I would get H+ icon but no data. I sent mine back for a replacement.
Did you activate the phone on AT&T before unlocking and changing SIM?
I am facing the similar problem too. I use Atrix with Simple Mobile number. Mine catches E but doesn't load anything. Always ended up showing connection error. Is it a hardware problem?
Sounds like apn settings are incorrect.

I don't know what your apn settings should be, just sounds like that is the source of your problem.
Edit...look at some of these:
http://forum.androidspin.com/showthread.php/2615-SETTINGS-T-Mobile-APN-Settings
that post is where I got the setting to try to change to when it had a problem. later I found out that it's the same setting as the default though the username and password is unknown since it's a star.

You said "right out of the box". Did you mean it comes unlocked to be used on GSM carriers?

Yes it is unlocked for GSM carriers. No unlocking process, no code, etc.
Can anyone get mms to work with these settings? I have Internet just fine but can't send mms or receive them
Also PTA doesn't work only phone
Has anyone gotten AT&T MMS to work? I can receive texts, I just can't receive any pics.

I have someone working on an MMS app. Unfortunately they don't have much time these days. We always have MMS problems when flashing devices to Cricket. The app would work the same way as the one for the CDMA carriers.
I tested it with Solavei. It works, but the notifications with JB are off.
So you guys saying I can buy this phone from verizon then put my ATT sim in and everything will work, data ?

You should get talk, text, data (HSPA, I think there are some questions about HSPA+, and LTE is a different band so you won't get that).
You'll have to enter the AT&T APN. I can send with GOsms and the MMSC entered in those settings. Still can't receive. That's why I have a friend working on that.
I usually work on CDMA stuff and have a normal 9/5. That's why I've left the door kind of open here.
can't get ATT APN to work
I am having trouble setting up my DNA to work on ATT data network. I put the micro sim from my iphone 4s in the DNA, changed the APN following op's settings but could never get mobile data connected. Making phone call is fine. Did I do anything wrong? Any input appreciated.

I am able to receive mms with a Tmo sim. I have not changed any apn settings so no data yet.
I was able to just drop in a T-mo card and pick up data.. But as you'll know edge only. With brief moments of HSDPA when I'm assuming I was close enough to a tower that has been upgraded to the 1900 band. Well I decided to go to at&t and grab a sim to see if there was an improvement. I couldn't personally get any of the APN settings to work that were presented in the op and being that I'm new to anything gsm I've got no clue why: Lol.. Could it be a location thing? However I did find a setup that does indeed pickup data for me. Figured I'd share just in case there were others having the same issue. Keep in mind MMS is still hit and miss. I've had them go through out&in but it fails most of the time.

Since we all know there is an issue sending and receiving MMS, I do the bare minimum to get my AT&T SIM to work. I create a new APN and only change 3 lines.....
Under "Name" I put PTA
Under "APN" I put phone
Under "MMS Port" I put 8080 [more secure than port 80]
Leave everything else alone. Don't add your MMSC address, proxy or anything else.
Now save and you are good to go. I get HSDPA. Don't know if it's + or not, but I get the exact same speeds as I normally do with my AT&T phones.

I personally tried exactly as you referenced... I got zilch! Lol.. my device would not grab data until I used the Cingular apn information. As far as the MMS you're exactly right. I tried numerous combination with no result. The few times it did go through seem to be a fluke. I just threw the Cingular apn settings up because I was able to grab data and hopefully it may help someone else that tried the simple apn settings to no avail... I'm going to order a Straight Talk sim this weekend and see how that goes as well. I've got a month prepaid for both T-Mobile and AT&T so I've got a little time to play around with everything.
Side note: man my family and friends thought I was a dork before now I've got a VZW Nex and GSM DNA that I'm carrying around all the time! Lol

I guess my friend is nowhere to be found for the MMS app.
Anyways I think it has something to deal with the APN whitelist in the build.prop. Notice they don't allow for the mms APN. Does someone want to play with that as I don't have another carrier's SIM right now.

I am willing to do whatever you need. I have the DNA Unlocked and Rooted on stock ROM. I have a valid AT&T and T-Mobile SIM card. However, I am coming from 5 years of iPhone hacking, so I would need to be handled with kid gloves.
Just let me know what you need done, or point me to a tutorial thread.

Sorry to necro this, but when I add an APN and then save it, it goes back to apn list but is not there as an option. I've unlocked and can make calls/text but no data at all. I am unrooted, is there something I'm missing or do I need root to edit apn? Thanks a ton.

You should have a radio button to the right of each apn config. Tap on the button for the one you want.
If that does not work try toggling "Airplane Mode".
If that does not work, you have the wrong apn settings. You will need to contact your cellular provider and ask them for the correct Android APN settings.
Good luck.

Helpfull APN info for people using Verizon S4's on AT&T

I have recently taken my Verizon Galaxy S4 and put it on the AT&T network (Prepaid $60 a month plan) and after hours of reading these forums and trying apn settings posted I found some information via Google that might prove useful to those of you that wish to do the same.
Before I start, I am getting HSPA+ speeds of around 12MBps, I have full working data, text, calls, and MMS. At the moment I haven't been able to get the tethering to work, wifi or otherwise.. says number not found. I assume that means its checking to see if its available for a plan that allows it via AT&T.
APN settings I used are as follows.
Name: ATT HSPA+
APN: phone
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port: <Leave in Blank>
Username: <Leave in Blank>
Password: <Leave in Blank>
Server: <Leave in Blank>
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: <Leave in Blank>
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
APN Protocol: Leave it to the Default one
Bearer: leave it to the Default one
For those of you unfamiliar with how to change the APN settings: apn settings for Android - For Android, you should go to Settings > Wireless Connections > More > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names.
Its fairly straight forward. Make sure that once your finished adding the apn info you hit your menu key and save, then back out and select the apn you want to use.
APN setting source: http://apn-settings.com/us/att-apn-settings/
There are a couple video's on that site as well if you need a walk through.
I take no credit for the video's or the website, I am only relaying some useful information that I had trouble finding.
Hope this helps.

No, I couldn't get the tethering to work.. I'm using all the stock stuff on my S4 at the moment but once I flash something I'll play with it some more.. But as it stands so far that is all I have found that doesn't work.

Maybe you guys can help me? My HTC One is only getting EDGE.
My HTC One that is being used with MetroPCS' BYOD plan is only getting EDGE, and not 3g, 4g, or even LTE. The phone was being used with Verizon Wireless before I got it. Everything works fine, but my data speed is super slow (EDGE 0.01 download and 0.01 upload). When I check the APN settings, it still says Verizon Wireless Internet. The people at my local MetroPCS store were no help since they don't know anything about APN settings. Thanks.
