Data and Messaging on MetroPCS not working - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I know I have not been a member long, but I really need some help. I recently switched to MetroPCS as my service provider from AT&T. All is good and well except I can't use data or send mms messages. I have searched the forums, called their customer support, and looked everywhere I could for info. I have changed the APN settings several different ways, and some of them will work temporarily, other times it won't at all. I am using an unlocked Nexus 6 running CyanogenMod 13 nightlies. These are my settings currently:
APN: fast.metropcs.com
Proxy:
Port:
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: h**p://mms.metropcs.mmsmvno. com/mms/wapenc ***edited so I could post here
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:
MCC:310
MNC:260
Authentication type:
APN Type: default,mms,supl
APPN protocol:IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol:IPv4
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Can't Connect to AT&T Network.

My Captivate can read the SIM Card, but I can't connect to the AT&T service.
I go to Settings > Wireless & Network > Mobile Netoworks > Network Operators > And select AT&T, but it says "Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network."
On Perception 9.5, When I do the same thing, It says "Unable to connect. Try again later."
I flashed other ROMs and they all do the same thing.
Help?
Are you using an AT&T sim that has a data plan enabled?

Did you flash a new rom recently? Maybe the modem isn't playing nice.
If nothing else, go get a new sim from the local store and see if that fixes it.

Yeah, I flashed multiple roms (Perception, Doc's, Darky, GingerClone...). They all do the same thing.
I guess I will just head over to AT&T and get a new SIM.

[Q] Lost 3G AT&T service after traveling overseas

While traveling overseas in Malaysia I bought a pay-as-you-go SIM card and got phone and 3G service for a week. Worked great!
Now that I'm back in the states I have no 3G service with AT&T.
What do I have to do to get my phone back to 3G service? I can call and text just fine. Wifi is fine too.
I've looked for a FAQ please point me to one if it exists.
I'm running Cognition 3.02. Probably more info is needed. If so please let me know.
Thanks,
Gary

[Q] 3G connectivity Problem - Fido Canada

Hello,
I have a GT-P1000 that I am trying to connect to the Fido network's 3G/H 850/1900 without much success.
I am currently running the Overcome Stock Safe firmware and have gone through a number of modems trying to achieve the networks full potential.
So far all I can get is G/Edge.... would be KILLER to get it running on 3G/H!!!
I am curious if there any other Fido customers out there that have tried to get the Galaxy tab up and running on the Fido network.
Thanks
Someone else was complaining about the same problem. I sent him through everything I could think of and it's a no-go. The euro tab doesn't like the North America 1900mhz 3g band.
Hmmm..
Is it a firmware issue or modem issue? Or are you saying I have a TAB that is pretty much neutered in North America when it comes to 3G?
Thanks for the reply.
B.B.
He flashed every modem - so it's the chip.

Thank you
I am very happy to post that I have resolved my issue regarding the lack of connectivity in my region.
It was in fact a modem issue.
I found the solution on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847273
I followed the instructions on that thread to test the modem under the ROM prescribed there... it worked on all available bands in my region, and proceeded to use just the modem along with the overcome ROM, and again success.
I am attaching the modem for any other Canadian Fido users encountering this problem. Hope it I can pay it forward.
Thank you again for all you help.
Great support structure here at XDA!!
That's the recommended modem for North America, included in the Team Overcome download. Your baseband will say i9000JK3.
How did you miss that modem when you flashed all the modems in the stickie?
That is the kicker,
I did in fact try the JK3 modem that came with the Overcome download, and it did not function. At all.
I am/was left wondering this myself.
This modem specifically, this time... after going through the process of reverting back to 2.2 from the url in my post...
Worked.
I, in no way claim to understand why. LOL!!
Just thanking for all the great help.

Help: tbaytel/rogers can't dl/ul mms attachments

I can't seem to send or receive mms attachments like video or picture, and I am on 3G. I have rogers apn settings and can brows the net, send texts, make calls no problem.
Problem
I am signed up on tbaytel/rogers network on a 3 year plan, and live in Ottawa now for school. I lost my original rogers captivate and bought a at&t version from ebay as I didn't want to buy another tbaytel captivate.
I am using the latest cm9 captivate nightly build, yet this problem has been plaguing me since I got the at&t version. I have tried using different modems but no go.
I can't seem to get a competent answer out of tech at tbaytel or rogers. I even asked sales and can’t find anything on the net.
If someone could help me out, maybe, send me tbaytel apn settings??
I’ll try and post the logcat. I still believe that I need the right apn but I could be wrong.

I have the same problem on Rogers too. It has started since using ICS Rom builds like CM9 and AOKP builds. Mine is the i896 Rogers version of the Captivate so this is a software issue not hardware.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Hmm. I should have tried on a stock rom.. Only just upgraded bootloaders after a year, no problems but I was wondering about glitch kernel. Meh.
Anyway I'll post back if I get a hit. I'm still trying to convince my lazy brother to back up his apn for me. See how it goes. Cheers

Little confused by that. Do you mean that I need to delete "Rogers #1" and "Rogers #2", and then set the APN settings for "Rogers", "Rogers MMS", and "Rogers Tethering" to the above settings?

Wi-Fi Calling not working Metro-PCS

I've tried to ask this on reddit but I could not get any help. I have seen a thread on the nexus 6P but not for the nexus 6. WiFi calling does not activate, I have metropcs but I've seen people have WiFi calling activated on metro. It does say IWLAN on sim status but I can't make calls or texts. I have tried many WiFi networks and have flashed the stock image but still can't connect. E911 address is updated as well. http://imgur.com/a/6ZP9h I am on chroma 12/10, i manually flashed 6.0.1 stock, i also used the tmobile lollipop image for wifi calling and not luck, any help? Thanks

I recently got a Huaweii Nexus 6p about a weak ago and this was the one feature i needed the most due to poor reception in some parts of my home. After many days so searching xda, t-moble subreddit, and other help forums. I also made many calls to customer service and still getting no result. As of the other day i can confirm that I've found a solution.
1. Submit your e911 address to metropcs. You can the my metro app from the playstore or call customer service and give it to them so they can put it in the system manually.
2. Go into the apn settings and maually delete each default metro pcs apn one by one. After deleteing them you should notice that the apns will default to showing t-mobile's apn settings. (Ex: T-MobileGPRS, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS)
3. Click on the first apn that says "T-MobileGPRS" that is the setting we will edit. The other apns you can leave as is.
4. Once in the T-MobileGPRS setting change the Name from T-MobileGPRS to "MetroPCS".
5. Change the the APN from fast.tmobile.com to "fast.metropcs.com" . Leave all other settings as is and then save the changes.
After that give it a few minutes then you will notice it says "T-Mobile Wifi Caliing" make a test call and you should see in the dialer screen "wifi calling". From the there you will be good to go!
** I can also confirm that this solution also activates VoLTE and data and mms also work with not issues at all!

Alright looks like you have the same setup i did. I stumbled upon this new configuration after the original solution I had posted stopped working. So with your current apn settings
1. Delete all the the Metro PCS 260 apns.
2. From there you should only have the default T-Mobile apns that list T-Mobile GPRS, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS.
3. Edit the "T-Mobile GPRS" apn and save the following configuration:

from there save this apn.
4. Create another apn to the list with the following configuration:
Name: MetroPCS 260
APN: fast.metropcs.com
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port: <Leave in Blank>
Username: <Leave in Blank>
Password: <Leave in Blank>

MMSC: (add in the http:// before)mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: <Leave in Blank>
MMS port: <Leave in Blank>
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: <Leave in Blank>
APN type: ia
APN Protocol: ipv4/ipv6
APN Roaming Protocol : ipv4/ipv6
Bearer: unspecified
MVNO Type: None
Save this apn when done.
5. From there you should have this list of apns: MetroPCS, MetroPCS 260, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS.
Make sure the MetroPCS one is selected( The 1st in the list)
Almost forgot. To enable SMS texting over wifi:
--Go to Dialer; then dialpad
--dial *#*#4636#*#*
--Phone Information
--Turn on SMS over IMS.
From there if you once your done restart your phone and connect to a wireless network. And wait a few minutes then it should work from there. I used this setup and i can confirm that both wifi-calling is working & VoLTE. Let me know if this worked for you.

Alright looks like you have the same setup i did. I stumbled upon this new configuration after the original solution I had posted stopped working. So with your current apn settings
1. Delete all the the Metro PCS 260 apns.
2. From there you should only have the default T-Mobile apns that list T-Mobile GPRS, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS.
3. Edit the "T-Mobile GPRS" apn and save the following configuration:
Name: MetroPCS
APN: fast.metropcs.com

Ok so I tried this and then I had no data connection. After some time all I had was H. I then tried enabling wifi and putting on airplane mode with wifi enabled.. phone said connect to a network to make a call. To get my data and mms back I had to remove all the APN's and reset to default. I left the three tmobile ones there and added the mmsc (http://mms.msg.eng...) to the Metro 260 apn and now I have LTE again and my MMS is working as well as texts.
I guess its because I am on band 4? If you download LTE Discovery what band does it say you are on? This is weird at least I had Volte on the nexus 6 with the same sim card on metropcs.
