Straight talk and the At&t model Galaxy S5 - Galaxy S 5 General

So i just got an S5 through Swappa at a great price(540.00) and bought an Straight talk sim (6.99). it took all of a 30 min to port my current Straight talk phone number to my new phone. I get LTE and MMS is working. I would definitely recommend this process to anyone. now we just need root.

What does straight talk cost you a month and what do you get

Thanks for those settings. I had been looking for a working apn for a while. Straight Talk gives you unlimited talk, text and data for $45 a month.

You don't have to root or unlock your AT&T phone to use it on straight talk, but you have to make sure to order the AT&T compatible sim card off straight talk's website.
My recommendation would be to buy a Tmobile S5 and use it with straight talk, that way you won't be stuck with a locked bootloader

Sounds similar to the US version of UK's Three SIM only plan.
£18PM for 5000 mins 5000 texts and unlimited 4G.

thanks
"Devoid" Thank you for your prompt response in regards to my Query.
Tmobile sim won't be able to get 4G LTE thru Straight talk network , Max they can do is HSPA+ with Tmobile phones, that is the reason i am going with ATT.
What is Locked Bootloader ? Does that affect any of talk , text or data ?
Please advise...and thank you again.

Basic Question!
So I am new to this site, and was just wondering if the AT&T Samsung s5 will work for Straight Talk. I already have service for straight talk, just looking to upgrade my phone. if I was to buy a s5 for full price from a site (eBay for example), would it work!? If it does, are there any certain things I need to be looking for when purchasing a phone (unlocked/locked)? I'm not a very tech savy person, so if I could get a pretty straight-forward response that would be great!

At&t s5 [g900a]
I rooted with Towelroot a couple days ago. I bought it for full price from AT&T as a GO phone 27 days ago. I asked them in the store if I would be able to switch it to straight talk, and they couldn't give me an answer. When I turn on my phone, it shows an unlocked lock, and has since I got it. Is my phone already unlocked and capable of moving to straight talk? Do I just need to buy the straight talk sim? Or can I just move my phone over by buying a month's service and changing my settings as the earlier posts in this thread? I'd appreciate some help. This is my first time rooting a phone on my own as well, so if anyone knows where some mods are for it, I'd like to know. I haven't found any that are conformed yet.

Your AT&T phone is ready out of the box for Straight talk, no need to root or unlock, because Straight talk is a AT&T MVNO, it uses the same towers. Just make sure you purchase the AT&T sim card from Straight talk (NOT THE TMOBILE, they sell both)
Just pop the new straight card sim in,and just adjust the APN setting and manually enter in the posted info for the APN setting and everything work, phone data, mms, data all at 4G LTE speeds.
its the best alternative for an AT&T phone, other MVNO, caps data speeds to 8mbps ( cricket ) but Straight talk doesn't cap data speed, but ping times are longer than direct AT&T service, it takes a couple of seconds before data connects, not really noticeable, but for $47 bucks a months total, It cant be beat.

It's working.

I tried to get it to work through the straight talk website, and it told me there is no service for my zip code. It also wouldn't accept my IMEI. I called the straight talk number, and 2 separate associates had the same issue, and got stuck where you enter the MEID/IMEI. They put their supervisor on, and he got it working immediately. My service is consistently between 2 and 4 bars. Never 1, never 5. Internet is working well, haven't been able to check LTE yet, cause my town doesn't have it. I love straight talk. **** AT&T GO phone-2.5 gigs of data for $60/month. I'll go with unlimited/$48.

You won't get LTE with these APN settings. tfdata is the correct one for the new LTE-compatible AT$T SIM cards on ST.

I have put in these exact settings and my mobile data works but MMS/picture texting still doesn't work.
EDIT: Correction, apparently I am able to send mms/picture texting but I cannot receive it. I always get a prompt to download and when my phone tries to download it, it doesn't do anything.

It happened to me before when I was trying to fix friends' Android phones. I'm an iPhone guy, who owns a Galaxy S5 Active and who wanted to try out an Android phone. I was never able to figure out a solution for not being able to receive MMS (but able to send). I'm on the verge of leaving Android(iot) forever. Haven't been able to figure out a way to share Internet's connection via Bluetooth.
I'd suggest try installing the ST APN app from PlayStore and see if that helps. If not, you're out of luck and have to call ST CS, prepare with loads of patience.

Upgrading from ATT S3 to ATT S5
I have an old AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3, I bought it slightly used, locked, with a clear/clean ESN. I then ordered the Straight Talk Micro Sim Kit for it, ported, updated the APN settings, and all has been well. I want to buy a used S5 now that the prices are dropping due to the S6 being released within the next month. My question is, will I be able to just pop in my S3's micro sim into the S5 and be good to go? Can the phone be locked, or must AT&T now be unlocked to work in Straight Talk? Are there any other obstacles that will prevent me from utilizing the phone fully, SMS messaging, 4g data, etc.? So much changes in a few short years, I just want to get a full idea of what I'm in store for with upgrading to a new phone. Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks!

This is the only format that worked for me..
I gave an S5 Active and no matter what guide I used to set up my data, either I did not get LTE, or could't send pictures, receive pictures, and so on.. even ST tech support couldn't get this going for me. I am in Dallas TX if it matters.. Anyhow.. I decided to try and mix some of these fields with others from elsewhere and BINGO.. everything works perfect... all I did was change the mmsc to another..
So if all else fails.. try this format.. might save you some headache..

[Q] ATT Vivid on Tmobile... 3g? 4g?

I plan on getting a Tmobile sim card and tossing it in my Vivid, getting the $30 a month plan and using it till I get a different phone.
Any chance I can use 3g or 4g on it? I've heard mixed answers about it being possible as recently Tmobile "flipped their network" or something like that. Just curious if it as ALL possible to get 3g or 4g data on mah vivid. Thanks

Straight Talk

i been a straight talk customer for a long time. then eventually went to the 60 dollar go phone plan for LTE. not that LTE is vailable for straight talk i switched back to save a few pennies. anyone else on straight talk . there MMS sends but is never received by the other person. or sending one to yourself. sometimes it works sometimes it does. not. i never had this problem before. i tried old and new apn settins. it seems to work when it wants too is is a touch wiz bug . or is it straight talk
Pretty sure it's straight talk.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
never had these issues before. ever. i wonder if a bad sim can do this.
calling all straight talk users. with new sim LTE.
i installed new sim card. as i posted earlier. data works perfect LTE works its just mms sometimes sends and sometimes does not. i noticed when i delete the apn and reinsert it. mms will work once or twice. i also noticed if i toggle between. the locked AT&T apn and the straight talk one it will work for a short while. do you think the locked AT&T apn is trying to take over newly inserted settings? i never had this issue on any phones i ever owned
does anyone know if unlocking the phone will unlock the locked apn?
I am also having the same issues with ST and my Sony ION. Last Friday was working with my apn settings and didnt notice how low my battery had gotten. I was trying various settings I saw posted. The best I could get was ability to send a pic but never the ability to recieve one. Worst yet in the whole process my battery had gotten very low and during a reboot it would not light up or even recieve a charge! To say the least I was very distressed. Tried the hard reboot PWR + VOL DOWN no luck. Just dead all the way. To sum up this story it was Tuesday at lunch when I tried to charge it once again and I got the red dot charge light going again. I was happy to see some action. And a while later I could turn it on once again. I suppose the battery had to die all the way to get itself unlocked. The Straight Talk kit I bought at Wal Mart had an extra full size sim and I used an old HTC phone to get by after transfering to that sim card with ST over the phone. Now I need another micro sim for my ION as they are one time use only. Tonight I pulled out my adapter/micro sim out of the ION and inserted the full size sim and it worked! Seems that it may be hard to get it back out one day but who cares its working right now. When I find vpn settings that work good for this reigon of the US (Florida) I will post them here too. Maybe some of this info can be of use to someone else going through the same hassles as me. Thanks for reading!
After using straight talk for 7 months I gave my Sony ION to my brother and I got the HTC One M7 for a buck and added to my girlfriends family plan account.
The bottom line with straight talk bring your own phone and toss in the sim is after trying all the different APNs I never got a single one to work here in South Florida, USA So I am convinced that AT&T sells sub-standard service to Straight Talk and you get what you pay for. I told my brother to get the sim unlock code and try T Mobiles network as the ION is on their list for accepted devices.
I will get the last APN settings and post them here. I found some settings that improved my data speeds and used high priority. Another thing is when you change your APN setting with a good working one you will always get good service for a while until their servers start messing with your service. So if you notice your service sucks. Switch back and then forth again between 2 different sets of APN settings. This will throw ATT off for a while. Good luck!

weird, those are the apn settings i'm using. how old is your sim? they switched over to these settings on the sims starting a few months ago. if you have one from earlier in the year you have to use the older ones...... is all i can think of.

aha! thanks for suggesting that! my sim is about a year old, so after reading your suggestion I looked up an older APN setting and all is good now
I understand the newer sims allow us to use LTE - is it worth making the switch?

depends i guess. it's nice to have and maybe a little faster than hspa+ on straight talk, but it's not going to change your life or anything haha. that said, i believe the sims are still on sale for $6.99 and the transfer was easy and seamless for me on their website. for $6.99, "why not" is what i said.

T-Mobile Moto X on Net10 (ATT SIM) w/ LTE?

Does anyone have a T-Mobile Moto X running on Net10 (ATT network) and getting LTE working?
If so, what APN settings are you using?
I purchased a nano ATT Net10 SIM from a reseller who cut it down to size, and it came with instructions which make me believe it might be an old SIM because the enclosed directions said to use:
Name: NET10
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: proxy.mvno.tracphone.com
Port: 80
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
-----------------and additional info on various websites also suggest:
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Auth Type: PAP
APN Type: default,supl,mms
If I delete the main proxy listed above and leave it blank, I can connect with 4G (HSPA+) but don't see LTE coverage areas. If I don't delete the proxy, I get nothing.
The settings for a new ATT SIM are very different, and didn't seem to work at all. Is it possible to even get LTE with the old SIM? I'm new to this SIM game. If I have to get a new SIM, can my existing 30 days be transferred to a different card?
Also, for the first couple hours it all acted very wacky. It would work, and then all of a sudden put up the icons saying the phone didn't have a SIM card at all. I'd pop out/in the card and reboot, and it would come back. Lost it this way 3 or 4 times, but it hasn't happened in a number of hours now. Would this suggest the cut-down nano SIM wasn't the best trimming job?

Is the LTE symbol lighting up? Mine came from Quality One Wireless in FL for $0.99 (http://www.net10wirelessphones.com/Net10-sim-card-byop-kit.html). Don't know if it's the same seller as you had on ebay. Did yours come with a red activation card showing the settings you used, or ones more like the ones I listed?

I'm on NET10, and I run the stock APN settings given by the NET10 app on the Playstore, I was too lazy to reinput some of my old crazier APNs.

I get LTE, and everything functions accordingly.
Don't worry about the sim card, I cut mine by hand, it takes a few bits to set up the radio and all the fit bits within. After the first day, everything is fine.

The tfdata (the APN that's also provided through the NET10 app in the Play store) APN is the correct one for getting LTE. I had the same problem, as I was unable to get data on tfdata and only getting HSPA+ on the wap.tracfone APN. I called the BYOP support line (1-855-333-CELL) and they verified I had the tfdata APN settings correct, then "updated my line." Boom, LTE.

I'll give that a try soon. Got a new nano SIM I stamped out of a micro directly from NET10 and not a reseller. Need to port my existing Verizon number out via Google Voice and sell an existing Verizon Unlimited Data plan via an AoL before picking up NET10 again. Found HSPA+ pretty good during my trial run, so it should be even better with LTE. During my test I think the old SIM I was using created the problem as nothing using tfdata worked at all.

I'm really pleased with the HSPA coverage, so much that I would've left it as is if I could've gotten MMS to work. It's nice having that fallback, especially indoors or out in the boonies.
I bought my SIM from Wal-Mart. Strange, I would've expected SIM cards from official channels would work better than the reseller ones.

Unable to receive MMS - ST tMobile

Hi,
I have tried just about every APN I can get my hands on and have talked to ST via chat and they give me APN's to try, yet I am unable to "RECEIVE" MMS connected to WiFi or Network. Something I have noticed, when I am attempting to download a MMS that was sent, I never see the network icon show up. Isn't that suppose to show up during the initial process? Any who, I will list the current and ONLY APN I have / use atm. Thanks!
NOTE: If it's not listed it is "NOT SET"
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: default,mms,supl (Should this have spaces?)
APN Enable/Disable: IS checked
SlimMan, are you using T-Mobile or another third party carrier that uses T-Mobile's network? If T-Mobile, my Sim automatically enters:
APN: epc.t-mobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
this works very well for me, 4G LTE, etc.

Thanks for the reply.
I am using T-Mobile via Straight Talk. The link you shared, I am not able to get it to load via Chrome or IE?
Thanks again.

But Straight Talk piggy backs on AT&T.
Sorry for the confusion, if using over straight talk it will be different. So far wap.tracfone should work, have you called Straight talk support?
