I'm so close to using my phone with SIMPLE MOBILE

I have a Verizon Droid 3
I unlocked it with the unlock code.
I flashed it 'Flash+Verizon+DROID+3+OTA+5.6.890+to+phone_psouza4'
I rooted it 'Pete's Motorola Root Tools'
NOW, when I insert my sim card I go to Mobile Network Settings..
I see the GMS/UMTS settings.. I go to access point names and I see.
APNs
T-Mobile US
epc.tmobile.com
And it's in green, so that's good.. but I want to use it with Simple Mobile?
Simple Mobile runs on T-Mobile.
HELP?

try adding the APN information from this website http://simplemobile.webs.com/index/Android Configuration/Android Configuration.html

Oh I've tried... no luck. It still doesn't work. The APN settings are SIMPLE Mobile right now..
What do I do ?
Is it something in ##program? Because I wouldn't know where to get those values anyhow.

The settings on that site linked are very outdated. Do it like this...
Name SIMPLE Mobile
APN simple
MMSC http://smpl.mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Everything else leave it as is, save, and make sure to check the dot after you save it. If it doesn't work you can try adding the MMS Proxy (216.155.165.50) and Port (8080), but that's all you need to do. I am a Simple Mobile dealer (the service is pretty horrible to be honest), and this works for every Android phone I've done (including the Droid Incredible 2), keep in mind when it does work that you will only get 2G service (EDGE).

How-To Adblock Without Rooting (mobile data adblock working)

I didn't see this readily available and with many people not wanting to root and trip their Knox counter, I thought I'd show you how to get adblocking without root. This will work on both wifi and mobile data.
--First step would be to install Adblock Plus APK. I got mine from: https://adblockplus.org/en/android-install
--After installing, run the app once and activate filtering. It should now be blocking all ads on wifi only. To enable adblock on mobile data you need to add a proxy to your APN.
--Go to system settings>network connections>more networks>mobile networks>access point names. What you need to do now is go to you default APN and copy down all the settings. We only do this because you cannot edit the original APN it seems. Now create a new APN and enter in the copied settings. The only additional settings you add to add to the new APN is:
---Proxy: localhost
---Port: 2020
Make sure you set the new APN you created as active and adblocking should be working! I have done this on my T-mobile S5. Hopefully some of you will find this useful.

I can confirm this works, just tested it several times. Thanks!

Gonna give this a test.

I had to modify my proxy for wifi and the app seems to be working (I need to find something that has ads, ha)...but I'm unable to modify my AP on my sprint s5.

Yea, I couldnt modify the APN on my S5 either. I just made a new one and copied over the settings.

Not working for me...

Not able to create a new APN on my VZW S5.. Boo

Works with all my wifi, only added proxy and port. Android apps looks nicer now thx, still didn't tested it on mobile data
typed from dark room

Hi guys,
Sometime Adblock Plus crash... quite annoying.
I've decided to root mostly for AdAway ...

it works well on tmobile croatia , just added new apn

Thanks for this, it works, but have to manually add proxy and port to every single wlan network.

It is working for me.

It doesn't seem to work with Verizon phones. Anyone no verizon get this to work? Apparently you can't even create new APN's on verizons s5

Works great. Thanks so much!!!!!!

Works!
And we have to do this settings in every wifi network or just once ?
Thanks

Followed instructions exactly. Filtering says enabled, new APN selected. Still not working for me. AT&T variant S5.

Thanks, it worked like a charm. No root on AT&T and not having some sort of ad blocking was killing me. You are awesome and I hit your thanks button.

I have since rooted my phone so I forget. I think you might have to add a proxy to every connection you use

I don't believe you can adblock on the Verizon S5. My friend had one and I couldn't get it working on his device

Hmm, it for sure works on AT&T. Did you add the proxy settings to the new APN?

Can't add new APN

Well, spotify doesn't play nicely with a standard T-mobile ipv6 only APN; the stock APN can't be modified, so I tried to create a new one - press a big "plus" button and nothing happens. Is there some magic trick there, or my ROM (rooted, stock) somewhat messed up? Is there an app out there that would achieve the same thing, i.e. adding a new APN?
Thanks!

No problem adding one on stock nonrooted

I have no problem on a stock rooted. I have to have IPv4 only for some vpn's and other things.

with the unlimited plan at tmobile, they give you a max of 3gb for tethering(unless you buy more). do you have root or are you stock?

if you have root, theres an app called wifi tether router that when you use, tmobile doesnt know that you are tethering. theres also a system mod that changes some files thatll keep tmobile away as well.

Yeah I'd like to find out the way to use the stock hotspot and not have T-Mobile find out.

then there is a thread here about editing some system file that will help you out. i dont know where it is, so youll have to search(its probably within 4 pages of the n6 general/q&a sections.

That thread was for Verizon. I got it tho. Added "dun" to APN type and I'm good.

Nope turns out you have to modify the build prop as well. I took that last line out and rebooted and I lost tether again. Added it back just now and I got tether back.
So add dun in the APN type and add the no provisioning line to the end off the build prop.

never mind, the line starts with net.tethering. very interesting though.

Needs the two for sure but it does work. I'm currently tethered now posting this.

Thanks, Hopefully I can get this to work on my Nexus 6 for T-Mobile.

1a. Use a VPN on connected devices. 1b. Search xda for an app called dnsqache, and follow the github readme on how to set it up, I will warn you though that your MMS messages might not transmit if you do not have dns2 set as what you get when you run the terminal command "getprop net.dns2" and use a browser with a user agent switcher set to your browser except showing a Linux OS

I've added the net.provision whatever and added ,dun to APN type. Running euphoria and my tethering is working fine
Most important is the build.prop change and adding ,dun to APN type. Then you shouldn't have any problems
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app

So I'm currently having issues trying to enable Wifi tether as well.
I added net.tethering.noprovisioning
And added ,dun to the APN
Im on T mobile and have unlimited data. Rooted and running cyanogenmod on the nexus . Any ideas on what I did wrong?
****edit****
Nvm found issue, wasnt with phone but with computer intel software. All fixed. Thanks for the info!

would one of you lovely people give me turn by turn direction on how to achieve this?
many thanks will come your way for assisting me

I was able to work around the issue by modifying the following sqlite database (you'll need root):
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
You need to add a new entry to the global table called "tether_dun_required" with a value of 0.
It looks like you need to do this because some configuration data was added to Android for T-mobile that forwards tethered data to this APN: pcweb.tmobile.com
T-mobile is probably checking to see if your account has tethering enabled when you go through this APN.
After I made this change I also needed to change my APN settings so that it uses ipv4 instead of ipv6. It seems like tethering with ipv6 does not work 100% yet.

That's correct I used SQLite editor because I'm lazy sometimes and its easy when you flash a fresh ROM. I have a screenshot below of what it looks like.
I also added " ,dun " to the end of my APN type in the APN settings. No issues so far.

Unlimited hotspot tethering on sprint samsung galaxy s7

A alternate way of unlocking your hotspot on your galaxys7 without the need of root:good:
You are going to need the MSL code for you phone
Which can be obtained by calling customer service and asking them (this is the way i did it) or just go to you nearest sprint shop and ask them for the code.
(If they ask why you want the code, just say its for your personal info or interest)
Once you have your code, go to your phone dialer and dial the following: ##3282#
Than you will prompted to write your MSL code
After typing your code, you will be presented to a menu, on that menu you are going to search for "APN SETTINGS" than you are going to search for APN2 EHRPD Internet APN2 LTE internet, and on both you are going to search for the following: "default,mms"
And once you found the "default,mms", you are going to edit it to : default,mms,dun (just add: ",dun" at the end).
Once you have finished editing, just reboot your phone
And you just unlocked unlimited hotspot and tethering

Really thats wierd , because yesterday i called customer service for my msl, and than i proceeded to unlock the hotspot without no problem.
Also before i did recieve my msl code, i did try to unlock the hotspot feature just using SHORTCUT MASTER, but couldn't becuase it was grayedout and unable to be interactive.
But when i tryed using the methods that sprint technicians use (the msl code method) i was able to unlock the feature.

Here is the screenshot

Well **** didn't know that. What version are you running with U firmware

PG1 ..most recent

Shortcutmaster is easy, just type "Apn" in th he search engine, than look in the options that it provides you, tap on the apn option that end in the word settings ( ex. Apn................settings). And than you will be prompted to press " launch" (it a menu bar that says: launch,home,ect.) After that its the same procedure as if using a msl code
The only down fall to this, is that you need root for it to work ( to ungray the options need to fix). The things needed to unlock the apn's grayed.
But if it works for you without encountering any problems just share the info with others

Even the msl code method is showing up to some people grayed.
I tryed using both method on my fathers s7, and i encounterd this issue.
My guess is that it has to be with something with the build or serial number or some thing distinguish them from each other. Cuz for some it both methods work, but for others they need root to acomplish this.
