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The settings on that site linked are very outdated.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).
Now that we have root, I've been able to use this method to get tethering on my Atrix HD:

My line number was 107 but yours maybe different. Good luck!
I did that change as well; however, i cannot change the hotspot name. Can you?
This doesn't belong in DEV.
I hope we have active moderators in this forum to move it.
Please try to keep this forum open to development only?

Weird, mine blocks me from changing it
I use Droid Bionic method and it works. It's almost the same as Atrix method. Only we need to type check in settings and change entitlement to 0.
Can anyone post the specific app they're using for SQLite and tell my where exactly to go? I tried the method in the OP but couldn't find it. Sorry for the nooby question. I'm a fairly seasoned vet of Android devices, I'm just having trouble with this one. I'm rooted I just can't find the right file path in SQLite Manager.

Click HERE, download and use the SQLite Editor that I used and worked..
But the USB tether is still asking for AT&T auth.. any solution?

Same here, tmobile as well, although DNS seems to be working, i.e. names do resolve.
This is what I had to do to get tethering to work:
Based on what I read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962752
1. In the settings.db change dun_apn_changeable to 1 (line 122)
2. Create an APN named Tethering and copy all the settings from your provider's APN. Enter ",dun" in the APN Type.
I did not need to make it active.

So now it works on Atrix HD tethering works with T-Mobile? Can we just delete out the AT&T APN and put in epc.tmobile.com or internet2.voicestream.com?
Is that what y'all are doing?

Per OP
- Phone has to be rooted
- entitlement_check changed to 0 (or disabled)
I used aShell and aSQLiteManager, which are free. The file is in data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db entitlement_check is line 107 for me.
Apparently it's an APN issue. There's more info in the thread I linked. If I understand it correctly T-Mobile has a hidden APN for tethering. You can either replace it with modified APNs, as suggested in that thread or what I did was change the setting so that the tethering APN can be changed and then create my own. The AT&T APNs aren't used when on the T-Mobile network, so there's no reason to delete them.
Thanks, I know you have to use epc.tmobile.com with T-Mobile network. Just didn't understand the part of using SQ editor to disable the lock.

Have rooted TMo version with the latest update. The built in AT&T settings are acting up. Does anyone have a way to delete them? All options to edit are greyed out for me.
When I add the APN I need, the phone uses it for a while and then defaults to the wrong setting.

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

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 cant add the new APN on a Verizon galaxy s5, does anyone know how?

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?
Hello,
I was hoping someone could help me with my issue. I'm trying to access my APN settings but my option is missing there's no way to access the setting. I was wondering if this issue is isolated to just me or all LG g4 sprint users. I was hoping to create a new apn. Please assist!
Edit: I'd like to specify I'm on lollipop ZV5 stock rooted.
Thank you!
I'd like to add this SS to show you it's missing. It should be under connection optimizer.
Weird....mine just has APN settings. Might want to update the rom to ZV6.

What happens when you dial "##3282#" ?
Don't know why it wouldn't be there.
