Msl data editing help needed! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I already obtained the msl for my samsung j3 emerge on boost mobile network (by myself). However when i go into the data menu and try to edit the data profile it's locked (Its faded and i cant change anything). Does anyone know how to get access to this? The reason i want to change it is to disable the Rev. Tunneling option.

Bandswitch

So, when I get to the license menu, it asks for name and serial number. How do I enter my name and what serial number do I use?
Thanks for such a newbie question.

After using the program for over a month, I was just randomly asked this by my device. Entering the serial number (behind the battery) did not do a thing. I tried deleting the bandswitch program from the program list (settings, delete programs). nothing. (I am not getting ANY connections)
I tried a system restore using SPB backup saved about 3 weeks ago. Tried backing up from an even further restore point with SPB backup.
nothing.
Connection manager cannot find ANY connections. unable to manually configure network. using At&t simcard never had a problem til now. everything was great. WHAT HAPPENED!?
I can't use my phone at all. I'm gonna have to wait until I get home and reflash/reinstall ROM to start fresh. But I really shouldnt have to (!). checked with at&t/cingular (california, usa) no problems with towers or anything on their end.
wtf.

You need to buy the license to get it, from the website..
Then need to enter the Owner Info (name). This menu is hidden by default. U need tweak to enable Owner Info. U can use BsB Tweak from here.
The owner name i located in Setting Tab >> Menu >> All Setting >> Personal >> Owner Info.
Actually, there's several alternative to Bandswitch which is free. U can use WMLongLife (search it) which have more option. Or u can add 3G Enable Comm Manager (to enable/disable 3G) and in combination with Advanced Configuration Tool (to get disconnect idle connection setting).
Bandswitch is not freeware. Install Touch Tools instead. It has an option for auto-disconnecting data, among other options.

[Q] Unlock registry Samsung Epix i907

Hi,
I don't live in the US and this phone GPRS settings are locked to AT&T. I've read several post to modify the regitry, delete key, etc. My problem is that whatever I do I get access denied.
I am currently using CeRegEditor 0.0.5.2
I've hard reset my phone...nothing works.
I would like to:
1. Remove AT&T wap settings
2. Increase the size limit for ringtones
3. Enable my GPS to use my carrier data plan
I know how to do all of these things, it just that the registry won't let me.
Also... can someone provide a link to GPRSmgr.exe file?
Thanks !

Significance of apns-xml.conf file - Enabling NEXUS6 for VOLTE

I have recently been trying to flash and root my NEXUS 6 device to try and get VoLTE to work on it ; The instructions I received (at a high level) involved flashing the device with a custom ROM (I have tried LMY47D, LMY47M and LYZ28K) , rooting It, updating the qcril.db (to include my MCC/MNC) , updating the apns-conf.xml (to add my IMS APN) and finally modifying the framework-res.apk to enable the 'config_carrier_volte_available' flag for my MCC/MNC.
After doing all the above, I can confirm that I am now seeing the extra option in SETTINGS->MORE->MOBILE NETWORKS called 'Enhanced 4G LTE Mode' which I have enable along with the extra config that can be done from the *#*#4636#*#* menu.......Unfortunately , my device does not try to REGISTER with the IMS network nor do I see any extra settings on the phone (like IMS calling) to configure IMS specific settings. I have checked the android logs and can see the UE is successfully loading the IMPI,IMPU,DOMAIN and P-CSCF from the ISIM Module however nothing seems to happen.
My one observation is that my added APN (in the apns-xml file) does not show up in APN settings and I have to manually add the IMS APN., so my suspicion is that perhaps I am either not setting this properly or perhaps there is more to all this....Therefore I would like to present this challenge to the clever brains in this forum and would appreciate any guidance that I can get,

Question - How to enable LTE icon in the status bar (if you're in the US)?

I have been trying to find a way of having LTE display as my network connection instead of 4g+/4g (I know that there's no technical difference, but aesthetically it does make a difference and it's easier to see when you're not on an LTE network).
The closest that I have found to making this happen is the following thread here on XDA: [Guide] Enable LTE Icon on Unrooted Mate 9
I already had a call with AT&T to verify that I am connecting to their LTE network with my device so I know that from a technical backend perspective - I'm good to go.
I was able to obtain the list of current MCC/MNC codes currently configured for my phone using the 'get system hw_show_lte' ADB command. However I'm a bit confused as to how I am supposed to add the MNC/MCC values for my carrier (I'm on AT&T). the MCC code is 310, but there are more than one MNC code (according to this site here: http://www.mcc-mnc.com/)
I don't want to mess anything up as I clearly don't know what I'm doing. Is there a magisk module that can make this change (I searched for LTE and only came up with the VoEnabler module)?
Is there a system file that can be modified via a text editor (so that I can make a backup before making any changes)?
Thanks for the help/guidance in advanced.
Thanks for the link.
I tried the command adb shell settings get system hw_show_lte and I got "null"
Then I used the command adb shell settings put system hw_show_lte "310" and it is showing me the LTE icon with T-Mobile.
Maybe after an OTA I will lose the icon, but at least it is really easy to change it again.

Definitive APN editing guide - Useful for CDMA MVNO users

I spent hours trying to get my APN editing when I did a factory reset on my Nexus 6p. Android 8.1 made editing APNs a royal pain if you are using a CDMA carrier. There are lots of threads spread around on getting Total Wireless, Tracfone, and other carriers working form MMS and internet. A lot of the solutions I found worked most of the way but I needed tethering and finally rooted to be able to edit and get tethering.
The options I have found are
Root your phone and do some SU commands
Pop an alternate carrier sim in and edit the apn (I have not been able to fully test as I don't have an alternate sim)
Use adb to open the apn add dialog while the sim is ejected (result does not allow tethering but local data works)
1) Have a rooted phone. Place phone in airplane mode. Enter the commands shown in <brackets> (don't include the <> symbols). Open a command prompt and enter <adb shell>. Get a su prompt by entering <su>. Modify the verizon apn to point to the correct apn server <content update --uri content://telephony/carriers --bind apn:s:"TRACFONE.VZWENTP" mmsc:s"http://mms.vtext.com/servelets/mms" --where "name='Verizon'"> Your data and mms should start working and tether should work as well.
2) Use a T-mobile, AT&T or similar sim and enter the total wireless (or MVNO settings of your choice) APN settings. Remove alternate sim and insert MVNO sim. Go to APN settings and select the new APN.
3) Have your screen unlocked on your phone. At a shell prompt enter <adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.INSERT content://telephony/carriers --ei simId -1> Enter the MVNO APN settings found on google and save. It may give an error if you enter DUN profile. I was not able to get tether to work this way so I used method 1.
Feel free to add other methods that work. Make note of the software version you are utilizing.

Well I have to eat crow. I thought this was working great but I can either have tether or mms but not both. Method 3 allows MMS to work but not tether. Method 1 allows tether and data to work but not MMS!!!!!
NO ROOT NEEDED --- For anyone still having this issue, I have an LG G7 with a Sprint locked APN and I tried every single method I could find online but this is the only thing that worked for me and it worked perfectly:
