I don't see mms protocol on my settings. I just updated my setting and significantly faster with these settings.
I've used those strings and nothing works on my vivid except the same apn setting for my old HTC inspire
My vivid is rooted and I am running he ICS
But with those settings trying to use apps that use the internet like Facebook or myyearbook I get unexpected errors wont let me viewpeoples profiles

You need an LTE compatible sim to connect to PTA APN.

I couldn't, for the life of me, get LTE data connection or use visual voicemail until I saw a post in another thread suggesting the PTA APN, so I searched and your post came up. Same phone as me too! Thanks a lot. Visual Voicemail now works AND I am getting LTE data instead of 3g!

H-holy CRRRAAAAAAAAP.
So, I ran a new speed test at mobilespeedtest to replace the test I ran with my SGS almost two years ago, and it was insane. But what gets me the most is that I decided to run the test through my desktop browser too, at the 7MB test.
My Vivid's LTE connection was FASTER than my desktop connection. I have a 25mbit/s connection for my server, with absolutely no data being transferred beyond the speed test, with a 1gbit/s connection between all of the machines connected to my router.
Desktop Results: 10256Kbps (Approx. 10mbit)
LTE Results: 11940Kbps (Approx. 11.6mbit)
Pre-PTA APN Results: 3925Kbps (Approx. 3.8mbit)
Thanks again for PTA APN settings!

Yeah...I get like 23MB down and 8MB up according to speedtest....only ran it once cause I'm on the 200mb plan and each test takes at least 20mb I think...my desktop got an average of 18mb down on speedtest and 3mb up

for me 3.0 update or fresh install kicked out the APN even with a full wipe. But making a new APN thanks JEANRIVERA above data is back fine and this 3.0 for me is much fastier over 2.4 . thank you, very nice indeed update..
Big thanks!.. I've been playing around with a couple VZW phones on AT&T(Droid DNA and Droid Razr HD).. I could pickup H on the DNA but no better then Edge on the HD. That was until I plugged in the Apn configuration from the OP!.. Almost instantly switched over to H+. While its not VZW LTE speeds honestly I'm perfectly content. For some reason LTE speeds haven't been the same in my area since that nationwide drop out a few months back.. The best I get on any of my devices is a 6-8meg down. Thanks again!!!

And now it restricts me lots of sites and even on the market some apps.
I return the phone because of this crap and after 8 years with at&t I canceled my service.
Check your account plan see if they change anything and check sites on the web like streaming sites.
It doesn't let me stream like from justintv on lte but when I switch to wifi I have no problem.
well on my iphone i was using an unlimited plan for $30mon, with this vivid, im charged $30mon for unlimited. im not really understanding the difference here. im hoping its not something obvious but as far as i can tell, its the same service except i have 4g
edit
i think i get it, its restricting data intensive apps. well tbh, im glad they do that. imagine everyone doing data intensive apps on the network... it will make it slow and might even crash it. when i go to the local theme park, no one can hardly use the internet on there phones cause its so slow that many times it will just time out. so many people are using there phones while theyre waiting in lines that the cell tower cant handle it all.
There is no difference for me.
Good, now people can't hog so much data, it won't kill the network.
In all honesty, all you probably have to do is root the phone, and kill some background app, and you'll have full functionality again.

I thought maybe if being on the enterprise data plan might remove the blocking and changed to the 4GB Enterprise Data. But still being blocked.
Well first I am Glad they are limiting things as stated before it will keep network intensive stuff down which should in turn make the network in general function better. Also if I recall correctly on a different device there where apps that were blocked from being installed over 3g but once root was achieved it was bypassed so I wouldn't worry about it too horribly much considering I think the change was in the software.

And you want a lovely nice bottle neck with that too right? Considering if they allow Large files to go down they will Bottle Neck considering the network they have is still shoddy I mean hell look at what happened when the 1st iPhones were released and Everyone was downloading stuff almost immediately...Network Crashed. So Either it's yay have unlimited and watch the network crash because it got too congested and Not be able to use your Data At All or deal with the slight restrictions and go home or to a Wi-Fi area which there are plenty of and Download the stuff there.
But as I stated in the post prior I am guessing it is probably throttled some where in the software like previous phones have been and it is just a matter of rooting and finding the code and changing it.

If you use a different browser such as opera mobile justin/twitch tv work fine...
Works just fine on the Dolphin Broswer.
As for limiting, this also says it on 3g, however my corporate exchange and intranet sites work just fine. I have yet to have anything blocked except the same things many people do like block file size for an app that wants you to use WIFI.
i've had no problems so far...a few hickups while video chattin..but otherrwise im enjoyin my $30.00 unlimited plan.
I have had the Family Unlimited Data Plan for years, Since the Blue Angel, then Apache.
My Data is $30/Mo. Unlimited for all my lines with throttling to faux-g (as I cleverly heard it put) starting after 10Gb of Data.
Your plan was not a Smartphone data plan it seems to me. Looks like you reaped the benefits of it for some time, time to pay the piper.

Apn Tether
Yes, I have tried it and it worked great for about half a day. Then once i tried turning it on and got the "you need a tether plan from At&T" message. I tried everything, restarting, deleting the apn and making it again, nothing. The only thing I can think of is part of the instructions said I had to set an APN protocol if it was applicable. This was not one of the settings I saw so I just assumed I didnt need it. Could that be the problem?
That's strange tho because I have used those tether apps on other htc phones and they have never failed

for usb tethering easy tether (http://www.mobile-stream.com/easytether/android.html) works great for me. i bought the full version for my aria and now vivid, love it. pricy at $9.99 per device but as much as i use it, it's well worth it for reliability.
I had to install it on my aria using the side loading wonder machine (google it). but on the vivid when i paid for it online it downloaded from the market over the air.

i don't have LTE to test it but i would think so, if i switch to wi-fi the tether still functions. i guess i'm saying as long as you are online this program would be too.

i appears at&t didn't lock down the hotspot functionality so, I assume you can use it just fine.

The downside of PDAnet is there is software on the PC/MAC side. I only want it on the phone. Im not always at the same tablet/computer etc.
If you have a better solution share it I would like to get rid of the pc/Mac software side also!!!!

Your local tower/site might be being upgraded to LTE. If so, you should expect some down time. My site literally went offline for a few days (100% roaming on Verizon) until they finished whatever upgrade they were doing. Got LTE about a week later. But as stated, your mileage may vary.

My S4 is the same speed on 3g as my Evo 4G LTE and as our S3. I used Speedtest to verify. I'd take the phone into a Sprint store and run Speedtest on it compared to their display model. Turn wireless off on both phones first, of course.

If you don't have upgraded towers, your service should remain the same. If not, I would suggest you get your new phone looked at since it's still under warranty.

I'm coming from a Nexus S 4G too and this phone has so much better reception, especially wifi. Don't really get LTE that often though, which is kind of disappointing because I actually had pretty good WiMAX coverage. But I know LTE coverage will only get better with time.
Signal != Data speed. If your signal is good but your data speed is slow, it's most likely that the sector is overloaded or the site is currently backhaul limited. It sounds like the site you connect to hasn't had Network Vision upgrades yet. Go familiarize yourself with Network Vision over at s4gru.com.
Call sprint before you return it. I had the same thing. I had great signal with my HTC Evo 3d and when I switched to the S4, I was dropping calls like crazy and with 1 bar or no signal. Found out that they were updating the towers and I also have 4g in my area now. Woot!

I went to an actual metro pcs store and bought the sim. The employee scanned the bar code on the back of my phone, so I'm guessing they programmed it specifically for my phone.
Ok so called my friend today. He told me that he didn't input the APN settings, they loaded automatically. It did make an APN profile for him. He sent me the following screenshots.

No go on the apn settings. I am planning on driving out to LA sometime later this week and will check out whether this lack of LTE is only in my area. Sucks coming from metro's great cdma service.
Also quickvic has a good point about the password, although I'm thinking tyiphius friend's apn settings were installed automatically
Anyone know where I can buy a N900A note 3 that will work on Metro LTE?

Signal via dBm is roughly the same for me on 6.0
Although today for a few minutes when I dropped out of an LTE area, signal bars said 3G. Not the H or H+ that I would normally see. My APNs are set properly, but did have to edit them to be so.
Maybe because this isn't a T-Mobile specific build is why it showed 3G. Because when I force 3G mode only , it shows H.
And my WiFi connect time is a bit slower as well. Instead of 2-3 seconds, it's definitely well over 10seconds to connect.

Signal via dBm is roughly the same for me on 6.0
Although today for a few minutes when I dropped out of an LTE area, signal bars said 3G. Not the H or H+ that I would normally see. My APNs are set properly, but did have to edit them to be so.
Maybe because this isn't a T-Mobile specific build is why it showed 3G. Because when I force 3G mode only , it shows H.
And my WiFi connect time is a bit slower as well. Instead of 2-3 seconds, it's definitely well over 10seconds to connect.

btw, H is 3G, just a newer, faster, form. and H+ is even faster
what are the tmobile settings?
Yes. I know its 3G. Just that this was the first time EVER I saw the 3G icon displayed on T-Mobile. It's always either been E, H, H+ or LTE.
Hasnt happened since so maybe a one time fluke

lol.
i saw an E back a few months ago, an E! i live in NYC, lol. ok, its only lasted for about 20 seconds, but still..
I did just do a speed test and noticed my speeds are nowhere near as quick as they used to be, didn't notice anything until this thread, so what should the t-mobile apn settings be?

everything worked before with my previous settings, unfortunately speed has not gone up any. I used to see 40+ mbps, now I am seeing 10 at the most....i am traveling today so I will check if maybe it's just my house....

See that "Access Point Name" wasn't showing up in my settings, "CDMA Type" was what it had instead. After I upgraded to the latest LightROM, i now have that in my settings and signal is better. My guess is that marshmallow is having trouble deciding if you're on Tmobile
