HTC One M9 questions - T-Mobile HTC One (M9)

Hello
Not sure this is the right forum. I have an Att version of the HTC ONE M9. I unlocked it and have it running on tmobiles network. Phone, text, mms, 4G LTE etc all work. The one thing i cant get to work is the mobile hotspot. It is of course running the carrier version android. Has anyone got the att version to cooperate with the hotspot on tmobile. Or am i better off with CM13 and using its hotspot. Any help appreciated.

Download an app from Google Play

Tried all apps on google play and I get the same network message. I think the native app is still looking for ATT. Instead of T-Mobile. I have the hotspot data on my plan. And I want to use it.

Download ApnManager and see if you have the hidden tether apn. If you do what is the info in it?

Tried to use apn manager and it says it can't get info about the network.

I had an AT&T M7, and with T-Mobile firmware it worked great. Have you actually installed the T-Mobile firmware on your M9? That would involve S-off and changing the CID to get it to accept T-Mobile firmware.

No I have not installed there firmware. I have s-off and unlocked the bootloader. Of course I'm rooted. Like I said its an ATT m9. But operating on T-Mobile network. Wondering if a custom rom like cm13 is a more workable option.

Ha, have you done LTE tests on the your ATT M9 on Tmobile? From what I read its missing one of the newer bands and you will not get LTE. Even in the specs of the M9 on the HTC website, its missing the newer T-mobile LTE band. Can't recall which one it is now off the top of my head.

I have the LTE and no issues. I recently put viper M9 on it. The att factory rom was the issue.

Does the t-mobile m9 work with an at&t gsm Sim or a straight talk gsm Sim?

Yes it will work if sim unlocked and you edit the apn settings and have a straight talk or att sim of course

t-mobile, orange and ee are all essentially the same network. I'm pretty sure that if you're not able to get a 4g signal ee will instantly switch over to on of the other 3g networks to ensure you have a signal at all times.
Don't worry - it will change eventually.
My HTC One X did the same for a few days.
I think it relies on a network update to come through.
Thanks I am on s tmobile contract.

[Q] Possible to use 3G from T-Mobile with unlocked SIM?

I recently unlocked my sim slot, and I have a mobile internet sim from T-Mobile. Since the Sprint HTC One supports the band for T-Mobile 3G, would it be possible to get 3G from T-Mobile for data on my Sprint HTC One?
The primary purpose would be to alleviate data costs from Sprint.

Three UK Ltd update

Hey. I have an unlocked HTC one with a 3 UK SIM. I'm currently s-off with viperone 5.8.0 installed. I'm running an older firmware version however.
Three UK have released an update to enable 4g compatability on their network, but I can't get this update due to viperone's update feature. How can I enable 4g on my network? I'm assuming it's a firmware update.
Next thing is, I have a Windows 8.1 pc. HTC drivers and adb is a bit weird on 8.1 from what I've read, so has anyone any ideas how I can enable 4g on my phone?
I have the gsm/wcdma/lte option selected in settings, but I'm still only on 3g signal.
Any help would be great, thank you!

Do you live or visit anyone in one of their 4g covered areas?
Mine's exactly set up like yours ROM wise, and I only get 4g while visiting London. None of the areas between where I live and London don't seem to have 4g enabled yet.

I have been to Birmingham and I'm currently on holidays in Ireland. 3 Ireland have 4g coverage in dublin (which I should receive under the 'feel at home' thing 3 UK offer), however both in Dublin and Birmingham, my gf has 4g coverage on stock Rom when I'm still running 3g.
Are you running latest eu firmware?

I think I may have sorted it with a radio update.

Is the Sprint carrier unlocked?

Let me know
My All New One
No

You will have to call Sprint International Services and tell them you are traveling overseas and if you meet certain requirements they will unlock it. If not you will just have to wait for somebody to find a fix if you want it unlocked.
To the 2 ppl that replied (and anyone out there) did you tried popping an att/tmobile Sim and see if it works? the m7 came unlocked no?
I need to know like right now cuz about to order one thanks! !!

The M7 did not come unlocked. It was the same thing with that phone. You had to call to unlock it, internationally. It was them sim unlocked for all but you had to be rooted.

Anyone knows if the unlocker app ffpr the Sprint htc one m7 will work on the sprint HTC one m8?
Can someone try it please ? I want to buy a htc one m8 and sabré to know if the Sprint version is compatible with the 3g/4g from att? I dont care LTE
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
The sim unlock app on the play store stopped working after the m7 was updated to 4.4.2. This phone uses the same version of android so I very much doubt it would work.

This seems to work on the Sprint version. Havne't verified yet since I don't have a nano sim.

APN setting is required only for data to work. signal has no relation with it

[Q] Sprint M8 on at&t

Hi,
I am sure this question has been asked before but I haven't found any threads yet that have fully answered my question. I have the opportunity to get a Sprint phone for a good deal. The only problem is that I am on at&t at the moment. I understand that Sprint is cdma and at&t is gsm. Can I sim unlock the phone to get it working on at&t? If I can get it to work, will I lose functionality such as LTE?
Thanks!
I think you can, but you will have to go through sprint to have it unlocked. Because the hack method is for international users only
