Hi everyone,
I just bought an used Captivate for Att. it has been rooted and SIM unlocked. I am just trying to delete the default APN because I have a Tmobile data plan so I do not need a Att plan. Every time I discard the APN, but those setting still there. I have two line one is for tmobile the other is Att and I use tmobile more frequently than Att. If I have the Att APN on my phone, they will quickly detected then forced me added a $25 data plan. I already try a lot of software like APNdroid, Juice, droid wall etc but neither work well. In addition,if I flash the phone into a different ROM, will ATT still can detected my phone? Beside, is there a good way to avoid those data fees? Thanks!

Hi. Anyone know why my coworker's iphone at&t sim works in my tab but not the pay-as-you-go sim that originally came with it?
I'm using the JK3 modem with the overcome beta2 rom. Is there an issue with this modem working with the type of plan I have?
Thanks!
AT&T APN Data Settings for Galaxy Tab
Go to Settings, Wireless & Network, Mobile Networks, Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN
Name: Broadband
APN: Broadband
Just leave the other options as is, save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN which doesn't work with the Tab Data plan.
I use the JK3 modem too.
Awesome! That did it.
Thanks!
RichAP,
you are the F**Kin man. I spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone with at&t with no result. after search this furom and changing names (a whole 15 mins at the most) I finnally have data. Maybe these "tech customer service" people should use xda when help people out, or maybe my dumb ass should have looked first. either way thanks RichAP.
No problem, glad I could help!
I've also had an issue with the stock AT&T Data Usage widget messing up my either my APN or Data.
Followed these instructions, but I think I have another layer of complexity.
My Tab is an international version and when I signed up on the att.com/addsession (or whatever the name is) page, it tells me they don't have a data plan for my device. Is that because my version of the Tab has voice capabilities?
I'll call AT&T tomorrow but thought I would see if anyone else has had this issue.
if you can access the 3G services please let me know how do you access internet with AT&T non-smartphone data plan on galaxy tab
What AT&T acces point setting to use on Galaxy Note with LTE data plan that MMS works?
Two months ago I got my Samsung G Skyrocket LTE and AT&T provision my unlimited data plan to LTE. Now I just got the Samsung Note. I copied the acces point setting of the Skyrocket to the G Note but the MMS is not working.
I can't find any more the post I have read here not long ago that he got both phone and switching around and he also have the LTE data plan.
Thanks for the help in advace.

There's an ATT setup sticky in the general section
Anyone successfully connect to the old cingular apn? It won't let me get a 3G data connection (I get signal bars with an exclamation point on the icon). If I force 2G, it will fully connect to edge. Then if I select 3G as my preferred network type the signal icon switches to 3g then H and then back to the exclamation point all very quickly. I have tried a couple apn settings without any luck. Since I'm getting service, but it won't give me data, is there something baked in the phone not allowing me to connect? I can put the sim in my old phone (optimus g) and it connects fine.
I can connect to the normal "nxtgenphone" apn but I don't want to right now.
any help or thoughts on this would be appreciated
isnt cingular the old tmobile? cingular doesnt exist anymore from what i understand, so you cant expect to connect to it.
Cingular is ATT now.

I can connect to the att apns, but my download speed is a whopping 0.5 Mbps. Connecting to cingular apn, which I can do with my old phone, at least gets me back into 3g speeds.
Are you on an lte provisioned account? If so the older apn's are locked out. Att did this because of the ability to bypass the throttle restrictions when on an unlimited plan. As far as the apn that works for 2g, that's probably the mms network.

Check the attached screenshot for the APN settings, even though its called ATT. Its worth double checking. Otherwise, two things should happen - find your old phone and get them to reprovision your account to work with the old APN, or troubleshoot with them and find out why you're getting such **** data speeds.

Are you on an older unlimited Nation plan or Family talk plan with unlimited data? If so, your speeds are being throttled after surpassing 3gb. Those download rates are tell tale. AT&T has blocked APNS other than NXTGENPHONE for those using a capable LTE device for the reasons mentioned above . If you were to change the APN to regular 3g ATTPhone or Cingular WAP. Your account is auto provisioned to reduce speeds.
Yeah throttling is the issue. Just strange I can go through cingular with a different lte capable phone.

Using a Family Share Plan I had connected via the default AT&T APN. I believe it was AT&T "phone" APN. However, I recently switched to my company provides AT&T Corporate Mobile Share Plan, and I had to switch my APN to AT&T "PTA" APN in order to get LTE to work. This is what I'm currently using on my Nexus 6. AT&T's NXTGENPHONE APN did work for me when I was running the 5.0 Developer Preview on my Nexus 5 on the AT&T Corporate Plan. However I lost the settings for it. Does anyone have a listing of the APN settings for it? I would like to compare speed tests.
Nevermind, got it from source
