What about WIFI calling and Texts? I've heard there is a fix to make it work with a TWO Rom on an ATT note 3.

[Q] T-Mobile's Wifi Hotspot on unlocked AT&T Note 3?

So like some people here, I have an unlocked AT&T Note 3 running on T-Mobile sim. I'm ok with the AT&T rom. I got the APN settings to work. Voice, 4G/LTE data, and messaging works, but I can't get Wifi Hotspot to work. When I tried to turn it on, it says the sim is invalid. My T-Mobile plan has 2GB of hotspot, so I'm not sure how to get it to work. What do I have to do? Do I have to root and install custom ROM that supports T-mo hotspot?
Thanks for any help.

Download a wifihotspot widget from play store.
then tap on it and immediately press the home button
it may take u several tries, but it will work
lmk if this works for u, cause it works for me, (plus its undetected by tmo)

Having the same issue here with my girlfriends note 3.
Is there a specific widget? Tried with the top two on the play store and it did not work after several tries.

AT&T unlocked 2014 x not working on tmobile

I have an unlocked AT&T xt1097 but it won't register my T-Mobile Sim card. It registered for about 3 minutes, got a welcome to T-Mobile text and that was that. My phone number shows up in settings, but it shows I have zero service. I've reset, and rebooted several times to no avail. My sim works in a nexus 6 so it's not the sim. Imei os clean. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be or how I could get it to work with my T-Mobile sim?

When you say unlocked, unlocked Sim or unlocked boot loader?

sim unlock. As far as I know there's no boot loader unlock.

Could it be that the imei isn't in T-Mobile's data base since it's an at&t moto x?
Edit: went and put the imei in to tmobiles imei checker and it couldn't figure out what device it was and if it was okay to use on their network. Now I just need to verify with T-Mobile and see if they can register the imei.

did you ever get it to work? i am experiencing the same issue. it connects to my friends AT&T network fine but with t-mobile it just says "cant register" etc,etc.

Change the APN settings
I have had a problem like this with my unlocked phone and AT&T, but when they set it up in the AT&T store they fiddled with the APN settings. I had to do the same to get my wife's unlocked Lumia 635 to work on the T-Mobile network. Try the values used in the link attached and see if it works.

I was able to connect to tmobile network some times, able to make calls. No data connection at all. I played with APN settings and everything else. any help..?

I have an unlocked ATT x1097 and it works just fine with tmobile.
You just have to MAKE A NEW APN SETTING.
When you put a tmobile sim in it, it will automatically create a couple of T-MOBILE apn settings. Just leave that as is and create a NEW APN SETTING with same info you can find from Google. Select that as your data apn. And reboot the device for the best result. It should fixed the problem.
For those of you whose sim does not register into tmobile network; i think it could be one of the following reasons:
1. Original ATT modem does not work well with tmobile frequency in your area
2. The device is locked (stolen, non-payment, etc)
3. The device is broken
4. Your SIM card is damaged
As long as you are at the home screen with tmobile sim, your phone is GSM UNLOCKED, and it iwill never lock again.

Just wanted to say thank you. My T-Mobile SIM wouldn't connect and I even went to the T-Mobile SIM store to get a new SIM Card but it didn't help. As you stated, adding a new APN setting was the only thing that worked.
For those of you who want to unlock your Moto X, I purchased a code on eBay for about $8 and received it within 6 hours. I would post the link but I'm afraid it might be considered spam.

What type of data signal are you getting? LTE?

Nice. Where did you get your unlock code?

I don't know about OP but I have always used swiftunlocks and have had great luck. Got my N6 from ATT unlocked through them without issues as well.
http://www.swiftunlocks.com/unlock/motorola-at-t-tmobile-worldwide
I noticed that sometimes phone picks up apn without issues and sometimes you have to restart so I just restart every time I make a change to be on the safe side.

Just in case anyone else has the same issue as OP, you should use the
Code:
epc.tmobile.com
APN, NOT the
Code:
fast.tmobile.com
one.
The fast.tmobile.com one would not let me register on the network. epc one did immediately.

Hey, I know this post is kind of old but I am currently having the same problem with my moto X 2014 going from At&t to T-Mobile, were you able to get it fixed and if you did, what did you do?

Any luck? I've just come accross the same issue. Got phone unlocked, and bought a new sim and activated. I'll get like 3-4 minutes of service randomly here and there, but about 99% of the time no service. Tried multiple variations of APN settings that I've found online. No luck

Fixed all my seriously annoying connection problems by flashing the 4.4.4 modem.

I just gotta upload the 4.4.4 modem from my pc, will do that later for you.

Neither one works for data... Just got it unlocked from swiftlocks and I can get voice, but no data :crying:
Someone help!! ...plz

Anyone ?? T-Mobile reps are mostly useless, and keep telling me that my device may have been ' re-locked ' to AT&T after a hard reset !! I know that's not the case because I've thrown in a Vodafone sim and it recognized it ! The sim unlock was purchased from SwiftUnlocks and the phone took it in one try w/o any issues!
Now, I can't even get voice to work... All I see is ' No Service ' and when manually trying to register with T-Mobile, it says ' unable to connect to the T-Mobile network. Please try later '
Someone please help out!!

Verizon on Sprint Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925P)

So before anyone flames me for asking about using a Sprint S6 Edge on Verizon, I'd like to clarify that I convinced Verizon to add my IMEI to their database. I have voice, text and data access (but no LTE and always shows as roaming). My phone is carrier unlocked (obviously) and rooted.
Now that I've gotten that out of the way, here are my questions:
- How can I re-program my phone to recognize Verizon as the default provider? Or is there any way to flash the Verizon firmware on the phone (aka make the phone a Verizon phone)?
- I'm hoping to be able to connect to Verizon's Band 4 LTE since I understand the SM-G925P to have the Band 4 radio. How can I connect to it?
- I can't view/access the APN settings and so I can't manually add the Verizon APN settings because of some "profile does not have access" issue. How can I give myself access?
Thanks in advance!

Most Sprint phones have an unlockable bootloader so I would assume this one does as well. Why not flash a Verizon rom?

I'm interested to see if this works fully. It looks like all Sprint Samsung's can be sim unlocked and bootloader unlocked so this could be a solution to getting unlockable Samsung phones on Verizon once again.

Any update on this? I am in the same boat. I was able to add the Verizon APN's and I am still having the issue of not being able to connect to the 4G LTE. BTW the roaming icon on the phone I think is just the software being programmed for the Sprint network and sees that you connecting to Verizon as roaming. If you check the SIM status, it will show that it is currently not roaming.

Any updates on this?

Cpu
I've had the same problems that has bugged me for weeks. I used a app called COOL MASTER to cool my cpu and seems to have fixed my crazy phone

this is in active so I am closing

Use your Sprint phone on T-Mobile.....ZV6 users only?

This is not mine, I take no credit, Mayrer has done most of the hard work for us, you credit him for his work and everyone he has worked on to get your Sprint to working for GSM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/spri...nlock-t3229801
I have only updated the information for changing in hidden menu and PropEditor. I also credit the maker for the CDMA to GSM Patch, Mentor.37 for his work and everyone else who has helped him.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394689
I do not know if this will work for any other Sprint phone not on ZV6
Bands 2, 4, 12 are for bands T-Mobile.
Download PropEditor and edit these settings....Don't forget this step first!!
ro.build.target_operator=SPR => TMO
ro.build.target_country=US
ro.telephony.default_network => 9
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice => 0 ....don't forget to save and reboot.
Along with Hidden Menu 5689#*991# to change your APN settings properly and set
Field Test => Modem Settings =>
PDP Setting => [5] APN Setting ...... now you have to select the bottom one then go into menu [ ] press until you see delete APN
you must do this because a bug I am seeing only allows the bottom APN setting to be used, I usually delete all until the APN I use is on the very bottom selection. no go back
Network Mode = Automatic => go back => RAT Selection = GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto
LTE Band Selection doesn't work proplerly so installing the modded Shortcut Master (Lite) from the link above be sure to go to
lotHiddenMenuMain (witout root) => LTE setting=> LTE Data Roam Config....and enable
Bar Roam Forced
Bar Roam Enabled
Roam Guard Forced
Roam Guard Enabled
Band 2
Band 4
Band 12 go back
Band 25 should be disabled unless you can use it. You cannot really set APN here.
I sometimes install the CDMA to GSM patch for global phones but I then have to re-do the PropEditor settings again, but it may be able to configure anything else that is missing, you can try to Adb Sideload the zip or use FlashGordon app to try to install, honestly I don't know if either worked for me for the patch.
This is what I configure to get my phone to working with T-Mobile.
I only submit this, I cannot provide support, you can always add on to anything else I may have missed or messed up, thank you.

Has anybody with an LG G4 rom version ZVG been able to successfully get their phone working on T-Mobile?
My phone is paid off and Sprint sent the domestic SIM unlock code. When the TMO sim is in and the phone's network mode is set to Auto, and and APN is manually entered per TMobile's specs, the phone can connect to the network and make calls, send SMS, connect to EDGE data, and sometimes send MMS, but it never connects to LTE. If I change the network mode to LTE/CDMA, the phone doesn't connect at all.
I read elsewhere to try change the "Bearer" field in the APN to "LTE" but that field is not displayed or editable in the APN input/edit screen. I tried a bunch of the Shortcut Master (Lite) or similar ways to expose the hidden menus to edit the full APN but they all fail due to permissions (because of ZVG version?). Shortcut Master (Lite) says it would work if upgraded to the paid Secret Codes version, can anybody verify that before I pay?
Or, any other suggestions to get this fully working with LTE or can even confirm that this is possible?

guys this is kinda old news
the build prop also is better set from
ro.build.target_operator=SPR => OPEN
then xposed modules such as android theme and such work.
but great find on thew band settings
ive been running my g2 g3 and g4 on tmobile and att and its subsidiaries for a long times now
and the g series sprint phones have been the best at taking to other networks due to the sprints already supporting most of the bands`
---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------
request for modderators to move this thread to the general area

i also thin the mellow mallow international roms go up to zvb which should work on tmobile and i can verify att networks

Doesn't the phone need to be rooted for the build prop to be edited?
And as far as I can tell, there isn't a root for a G4 on ZVG firmware?
Basically, to start with, can anybody confirm if a LS991 ZVG can be made to work on TMobile without root, or if there is a good rooting method, where is it?
Thanks.

Can you be more specific on what I need to ask Sprint about? Like I said, I asked for the the Domestic Sim Unlock and they sent that over the air and a confirmation showed up on the phone. It does not reject the T-Mobile SIM like it would normally, so something has changed from the default state.
Still looking for confirmation from somebody that has successfully connected their ZVG LS991 to TMO after a Domestic Sim Unlock.

need to ask sprint for the msl of this device so u can attempt to edit the apns it may take a few calls but most of the time if u keep ure cool and keep trying they will eventually give it to you
tell them the situation u paid it off they sent u the unlock code but are still unable to edit the apn without the msl
