Simple and to the point.
Enables the use of stock hotspot function.
This is only working for ATT and StraightTalk - ATT Sim. If you have another carrier you will have to do the procedure yourself below.

i have a att sim, flashed it and still does the same as before flashing. says dial 611 or go to myatt.com to activate hotspot?

Not working for ST AT&T sim, wireless or tethered. 1.08 odexed.

I can't speak to JMZ's flash, but I can guarantee the manual method works (& worked for him, also). Give it a try.

I just did a manual merge of the telephony.db in the zip, rebooted, and it's good.
Goes in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

that didnt work for me, stock rom but linaro v3 kernel.

Well. It seems I have hotspot enabled on my plan but not getting charged for it. That's why this mod works for me but jot anyone else.
So the Att version is broken

Don't know. Typing this now on my A500 using First hotspot with Straight Talk/ATT SIM.

Flashed the zip and it didn't work for StraightTalk. Not familiar with the installer but seems to be a script bug when checking for ATT / ST selection.
Manually copied the ST db and it didn't work, got the error "dial 611 or go to myatt.com to activate hotspot"
And it changed my ST APN settings.
I manually updated the db with SQLlite and got it to work with StraightTalk.
The ST db file in the zip uses the old APN setings, I was provisioned with the new settings.
See this thread for details on the ST APN settings.
New Straight Talk APN

So… what's the procedure?
Analyzing your files in SQLite I see you changed tables 2 and 12, but I can't seem to figure out the logic behind it. My experiments don't get me too far.

No, nothing in build.prop. What ROM are you running? What SIM are you trying to use? I was using AT&T via ST, is your T-Mobile via ST?
If ST, was there a recent change in the APN settings? I have read that there were some updated AT&T ST APN settings, but they do not work as well as the old ones, at least in some markets. I tried them to see if there was an improvement and actually lost all data, so reverted.

Stock 1.08.
I'm outside the US at the moment, so my carrier couldn't be further from AT&T, T-Mobile or any of their MVNO's. But the APN settings are correct: tethering works with factory unlocked phones.

You need to be rooted and s-off for changes to stick in system files. Good luck.

Ran into a tethering issue after addition of a third, but not selected APN. Tethering showed connected but there was no Internet connection. I tried setting up the new ST settings to see if my SIM could access LTE. It could not. I then simply re-selected my original APN. All seemed to work OK, except the tethered wifi device could not see the internet. The additional setting changed the order in the telephony DB list. Went back to just the two APNs and all is again fine.

I cannot get telephony.db to stick on my friend's First for some reason. No hash match after reboot every time. Tried zip installer and ADB push, in TWRP and in OS. 1.08...1 S-off and rooted. Also tried deleting telephony.db-journal first like the installer script does. So strange because I've done it with my phone. Note that I had downgraded from 1.08...4 to do this.

Is JmzJBSenseMyst_v3 new? That's what im running. I tried this on MEDUSA as well with no go.
It basically messes the phone up completely un-useable since I'm on Straight talk att blue sim and on apn - tfdata.
So how do you get tethering on this phone with apn - tfdata for att straight talk blue sim for 4g lte... ?
I can't get MMS to work at all... it won't download says download error even after putting the mms proxy and port 80 etc..
THANKS

[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] SPH-L720 Domestic SIM Unlock T-Mobile:AT&T:metroPCS:Straighttalk

[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] SPH-L720 Domestic SIM Unlock T-Mobile:AT&T:metroPCS:Straighttalk
Streamlined Guide for Domestic T-Mobile GSM Unlock for SPH-L720
Credit for all of this goes to @autoprime and @nicotheandroidguy
A few notes: I used Windows 7 for the odin flashes , my phone is a SPH-L720 and it is not active on the Sprint network, also the sim card from t-mobile was inactive (brand new from t-mobile store.) and it has a bad esn. I am located in the Phoenix az market so I'm able to take advantage of the 1900mhz band that tmobile has here.
I'm unsure of how this will work with mnvos or other primary carriers and frankly I don't care at the moment, this is my primary phone. Update: confirmed hspa+ for tmobile, metroPCS, straight talk and AT&T.
I HAD MY NEW UNACTIVATED TMOBILE SIM CARD IN THIS ENTIRE TIME
1) First I reverted my rom to a stock MF9 rooted touchwiz rom, instructions and one click odin here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486134 I’m trying not to straight copy and paste someone else’s work so take a look at that post if you need a clean start. If you are coming from non stock you will need to boot into stock recovery and wipe data/cache before you get started. (I also later used SAC’s rom after a failed attempt at an AOKP fix and it worked as well ) you can switch to any ROM later and the unlock will stick.
2)I rebooted the phone and followed the instructions listed here in post #1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2415587
3) I went to the dialer and typed *#0011# which brought me to the "service mode" Menu.
IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE GETTING THE HIDDEN MENU TO OPEN DO NOT FEAR! I had a ton of trouble at first. In some builds you need to activate an option by adding a line to your build.prop or changing the no flag in efs/hiddenmenu to ON. Google it, there is a ton of help out there.
4) Press the left menu softbutton (the menu button that lights up and vibrates when you touch it) then press the either the button “select” or “Key Input” and type the number 1 or 2 into the box, if nothing happens press menu and select the “back “ button then repeat. This app is sort of like a tin can radio, you can kind of tell that it’s working, but it doesn’t work well.
Depending on if you pressed 1 or 2 in the dialogue box it will take you into either an UMTS or CDMA menu. If you are in the umts menu, press the menu button and select back, this should then proceed to the next step.
5) Select CDMA, then 1.COMMON, press next page twice until you reach page three of COMMON and select 8.PREF MODE SET and select GSM_WCDMA_ONLY
6) Press menu and back until you are at the main menu and select [1]UMTS, then select [1]DEBUG SCREEN, then select [6]PHONE CONTROL, select [2]FAKE SECURITY CONTROL and make sure it is set to ON
7)Press menu and back and select [3] NAS CONTROL. We are going to check a few different settings in this menu so remember how to get here cause I don’t want to repeat myself.
[1] CIPHERING CONTROL = OFF
[2] INTEGRITY CONTROL =ON
[3] SIM CLASS CONTROL = UMTS
[4] REVISION CONTROL = DO NOT TOUCH
[5] RRC(HSPA) CONTROL = DO NOT TOUCH
[6] DUALMODE IMPROVEMENT CONTROL= DO NOT TOUCH
[7] NAS AVOID SECURITY CONTROL= OFF, 0
[8] BIP BLOCK = 1
8) Press menu and back twice, you should be on the PHONE CONTROL menu. Select [7] NETWORK CONTROL, select [1] GFC and make sure that it is set to [1]GSM/(E)GPRS/WCDMA REL8 .
9) Press menu and back and select [2] BAND SELECTION and select WCDMA/GSM ALL for both WCDMA and GSM band preferences. I selected the ALL choice for LTE as well even though I know it isn’t supported for TMOBILE.
10) Under the NETWORK CONTROL menu we just came from select [4] AQUISITION ORDER and change it to [3]UMTS_GSM
11) Press menu and back until you are in the PHONE CONTROL menu and select [5] SIMULATION , press the [2] SW WATCHDOG button 6(six) times and then the [3] HW WATCHDOG 6(six) times. Nothing will happen at all to let you know if you have done this correcctly but as soon as you finish the sixth press on HW WATCHDOG reboot the phone manually:manually:manually IMMEDIATELY . I’m not sure what this does or why this works but @nicotheandroidguy seems to have divined that this is the vital part of the process.
YOUR PHONE STILL WILL NOT HAVE DATA OR VOICE WHEN YOU REBOOT FROM THE WATCHDOG TAPS DO NOT PANIC!!!!!!!!!!! (hopefullly you have your towel with you)
12) WIFI that sonofa up and search for apn settings shortcut and build.prop editor in the Play Store.
Go into the build.prop editor and add the following two lines:
ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL
REBOOT PHONE MANUALLY now.
Now Install and create a shortcut on the home screen and select to open. Press the menu soft key and select add apn.
Use:
Name: T-Mobile
APN: epc.tmobile.com or fast.t-mobile.com (for LTE devices)
Proxy:
Port:
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy:
MMS port:
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type:
APN type: default,supl,admin,dun,mms
13) Go into your android settings, select wireless networks, you should see the network mode set as wcdma only do not change this, we set this in the Service Mode Menu , Check that your roaming settings are set to for roaming data/ international data etc.also make sure that there are no roaming guards left on. (roaming guards will only allow you to uncheck GSM and GSM data under international roaming.)
14) reboot
15) profit
At this point I had full access to the TMOBILE UMTS/HSPA+ network and voice/text/mms were working.
At this point you may change roms, be careful not to update past mf9 as you may be unable to downgrade to mdc. YOU MUST DOWNGRADE TO MDC MODEM FOR THIS TO WORK.
If you use a non touchwiz rom you can still access the tellinfo menu by pressing *#*#4636#*#* and selecting WCDMA only and manually adding the apn.
GOOD LUCK! let me know what needs changed in the guide as well.
If you have questions it's useful to know your Baseband /kernel/ rom.

Nice. Will it work with t-mobile in Los Angeles?

Most excellent! If you fiddle with acquisition order and make it gsm_umts it might identify your network type correctly.

My 1st newbie post:
Thanks for OP's excellent post!:good:
I have a Sprint Galaxy S4 is with stock MF9 (not unlocked).
I have spent days reading about how to get a rooted/unlocked MJA S4. But still could not find answer to the questions:
1. Will this also unlock international sim?
I guess yes, as domestic is harder to unlock. But want to hear the confirmation.
2. You mentioned you used MF9 rooted.
If I unlock it, then update to MJA, will that void the unlock?
3. Does this unlock works with MJA? If it works, do I need to unlock MJA first?
4. If I want a rooted & unlocked S4 with stock MJA, what is the simplest way and the correct order to achieve this goal?
Can I update to MJA, then root, then unlock?
Or do I need to root the MF9, then unlock, then update to MJA, then root?
If I update to MJA first, I can't go back to MF9, correct?
Thank you very much!

Ok
1)i am unsure of whether mja can be unlocked internationally or domestic . If you read the first direction it actually instructs you to downgrade to mdc modem. I'm pretty sure the reason has to do with the options available to you in the hidden menu.
2)i used mf9 rooted as a starting point to downgrade to mdc to perform the international unlock. Autoprime said in the thread that upgrading to mf9 would keep the u lock however I haven't successfully upgraded to mf9 and kept the domestic unlock. I'm going to try to get it to work today but not with mja until there is a reliable downgrade option.
3)i have no idea. I wouldn't suggest trying until there is a reliable downgrade option.
4)i would really slow down and read the international unlock guide from @autoprime I think it will answer a lot of your questions. Like I said I would wait to upgrade to mja if you want a for sure domestic Sim unlockunlock.

Thank you very much, imbmiller.
I will just wait patiently for the MJA solutions before upgrading to MJA/root/unlock.

So would this also work for AT&T sim? has anyone else tried? Btw, was thinking of updating to 4.3 and MJA but i guess i will have to hold off on that if i want sim unlock international or domestic? I am on MF9 with sim international unlock right now. Would I have to go down to MDC to get this to work?
Also, if you want to go back to sprint again, how would you do it?

Hi thanks so much for putting this together all in one place!
Hi I'm on MF9, rooted, locked.
So really the two major steps are:
1. Do int'l unlock first (autoprime)
2. Then do domestic unlock
My question - after you get both unlocks working and say you have your phone working on tmobile, what do you need to do to get it working on Sprint... rather, is the phone operatable on both Sprint and Tmobile? Or do you have to do some tinkering to get it back to working on Sprint again. I'd like to have the flexibility of popping SIMs in and out and switching carriers at will, Sprint included (b/c I don't want to cancel Sprint just yet...eventually, but not immediately). Thanks!

Another question
When you're tinkering with swapping out modems and APN settings, does doing a nandroid backup prior help so when you have an "oh sh!t" moment, you can just do a full restore...? Or is what's backed up in nandroid outside (excludes) these changes? Thanks.

OK the answer to the first question is to put your sprint sim card back in then put your phone back in to lte/cdma auto through the tell info app through Google play device info then change it in to lte/cdma auto.
Answer to the second question is that the nandroid might help you in a oh sh!t moment but the modem and settings for the unlock stay after a factory rest but a other update could kill it. A stock Odin flash and dailing ##72786# could also kill both unlocks.

Nevermind, it works on Metro it just matters the SIM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47624568&postcount=568

Did you install hiapn and add the apn? What baseband are you on? What rom and kernel? I'm not super positive about mvno s but I'd probly go back to the beginning and start over.

Sorry I had to edit my post. It did work. There are two different GSM SIMs the one with the dot seemed to work. I Got Edge, 3G, and H+. It is awesome. I also still have 3G with Sprint with the SIM in. I got two phones in one. Thanks.

So I've been on T-Mobile for the last 24 hours but my HSPA+ signal is weak and slow (under 1mb), while my co-worker on T-Mobile (and a T-Mobile phone) has full HSPA+ signal and speed (5-9mb).
Any thoughts on what could be the cause?
I'm running CM11 on MDC. I'll try some other combinations tonight to see if things change.

no cellular network

Hi there:
I had a rooted nexus 6 with Android 6.
I was playing with chmod and root and messed up some system permissions.
I have re-installed several Nexus 6 Google images 5.1 6.0 etc...
I have everything except cellular signal. It says no service and sometimes no sim card.
I have taken my sim and put it in another phone and it worked.
When I go to *#*#4636#*#*
It says GSM: emergency service only and GPRS service: disconnected.
I tried to change the network type to GSM only and others with no success.
Any help to further diagnose this would be appreciated..
Thanks

Very good point.
When I flashed 6.0.1
under cellular network settings , I only see Data raoming, Preferred network type and System select.
no APN settings
When I re-flashed 5.0.1 , I could see the apn settings, but when I go to it, it says something like that the user doesn't have permission to view the settings. I even tried to add a new settings and save it, but the message stayed there and I see no APN list at all..
I might have messed up the APN permissions with chmod, but I would think a system re-flash would have corrected it..

There is an app on the playstore, I forgot what it's called, you could force your device to only connect to a specific band, if you did it, your device finds signal but no internet it's likely just your carrier

SOLVED: Full mobile 4G+ data signal, but no data comes through

Hi everyone
I have a strange problem. I bought the "International" version, which was of course the Tencent with a flashed ROM. Although it was sold as "International" hehe
I didn't have Google Pay working and I've flashed the 1703 together with fingerprint, re-locked it down after and then updated with the latest firmware from the Asus website. (Google Pay works now)
Version WW-16.0631.1908.21
I now see that even though I have a FULL 4G+ signal. Calls come through normally etc. but the internet on mobile data simply doesn't work.
Anybody have any advice what else I could do?
EDIT:
It was a simple APN problem

I now see that even though I have a FULL 4G+ signal. Calls come through normally etc. but the internet on mobile data simply doesn't work.
Anybody have any advice what else I could do?
EDIT:
It was a simple APN problem

There are no topics on how to get OTA, i googled, all topics say its Impossible.
I want to know how he used offical update to update the phone, i just updated using one of the updates here in FASTBOOT mode.
If you know about topic that can enable REAL OTA that works or if you at least know how i can use ASUS offical updates to update [ mean i assume you just copy the zip file to the USB and it auto updates?]
Do tell me

Hi everyone
I have a strange problem. I bought the "International" version, which was of course the Tencent with a flashed ROM. Although it was sold as "International" hehe

Idk how to turn on real OTA thing, but if u want update to official ROM (copy zip file to internal storage), make sure your fingerprint set to same with your ROM (ex: WW ROM with WW Fingerprint), that works with me

I just googled what my mobile phone carrier APN was and entered it instead of the wrong one.
You can find the one in the phone by simply going to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )

I just started having this issue yesterday! Phone has been working great for over a month then all of a sudden 4g shows it's on and connected but no mobile data coming through! My APN is correct, and I'm using Straight Talk through the TMobile network... Still haven't been able to fix it.

Same issue here internet connection dropping

I wonder if T-Mobile is doing some "dry runs" before they officially light up their 5G network on December 6th. (src: https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4...d=WMM_TMO_P_19NETWRK5G_91WOGGGY1WERV94JC18747)

I am having same issue. Adding APN works for few hours. Then drops out. What to do? Did you guys find any solution?

Assalam alaykum
I suffered from dropping internet dropping connection
The solution was APN
Go to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )
click the ( Access Point Names ) and you will find many APN setting Depend on your internet provider
Click one of them and then and on far top right option button click (delete APN)
Repeat this until you delete them all
Click the ( + ) sign to create new APN
Now go to thia site:
https://www.apnsettings.org/
And search for your country or internet provider
Copy the APN setting from the website to you your phone
Then save.
Hope it could help you
In case you couldn't connect to the internet at all
you can always restore your previous setting by :
Go to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )
on far top right option button click (reset to default)
