Hey all AT&T US users: - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

How many of you guys see the beautiful H+ icon but get poor 3G speed?!
What via modes, phone codes or the like can be done about it?

Check your APN settings.
Settings < wireless and networks < mobile networks < access point names
Create this one if you don't have it.
Name: att HSPA
APN: phone
Mcc: 310
Mnc: 410

Then switch the wap.Cingular APN to MMS only under APN type at bottom.

Will that APN work if I'm on MEdiaNet (non-smartphone data plan)

what plan do you use? i recently discovered that gophone (prepay or pay as you go) for att andrid phones is only 50/month and everything is unlimited...voice/text/data. there is no way you cn go over any limits.
on tmobile im paying nearly 100/month.
can anyone verify this is actually the case and if they use this?
thanks,
jason

I get no signal with those apn settings.
Go Phone is for dumbphones.
if they see a lot of data use ...that indicates smartphone they'll nix it.

I dont think that is how it works... Att has to have an IMEI that they know is a smartphone to cut you off.

right i think it is by imei. i spent 30 mnutes on the phone with at csr and they said android phones are fine but ios and wp7 is not. it makes no sense ot me but thats what they claim and that what im going with until i find out otherwise. i have a nokia e71 which i could give them an imei number for and that also might work for these purposes but that doesnt really address my main question.

If you get no data, then you are on the wrong data plan, and your 3g will suffer until you get on the correct data plan
I had the unlimited iPhone plan, upgraded to the s2 on att, she switched me to the 4G unlimited data.
A good test is to download a browser besides stock, change the user agent string to desktop, then go to speedtest.net and look at the IP and the provider.
It should start with 166.xxx.xx.xx, and should say "Service provider corporation" if it says ATT your data plan will be slow.

Mine is the same but APN is epc.tmobile.com & MCC is 310. Does location change this?
No you are absolutely correct, wrong info on my part.
I will have to start double checking before I post.
Hmm... As of right now, I have default settings and it cycles through GPRS, E, and 3G, and even no data connection. Just very weird... I did erase the server "*" and the 4 characters under password and that didn't do anything. My MCC is 310 and MNC is 260. South Florida (if that matters)
Hmm upgrade your SIM?
I would go to the store and see if they can let them know tech support sent you. I've seend this fix 3G issues. Make sure you do have the android data plan and use epc.tmobile apn i posted with the fixes in the following post.
i'm curious, since it was mentioned about 25(30) plan
im grandfathered in to the 5.99 and the "hack" still works on my winmo phones for unlimited. reason i havent really wanted to update is cause i'm rarely on 3g i always get edge access (i dont have a nexus one yet, hence my question here). if i'm only getting edge in my area (i dont have the option for discount so going with full price on n1) any major drawbacks to not getting the 25/30$ plan?

My unlimited data plan is only $20. I'm grandfathered in from way back.

Any one ATT 4G+ plans who are actually seeing those speeds?

Even if your on their bonafide 4G+ plan their system doesn't recognize the device as a 4G+ device anyway so you'd only get they're crap "4G" speeds anyway correct?
Anyone out there on those regular ATT plans (vs prepaid)?
I'm on the grandfathered unlimited 4G plan & I see 3-6MB down & 500-1MB up on avg on H+.

I got 7 Mbit down and 2 Mbit up the other day at my friend's house in Austin, TX, U.S. I only get about 1.5 down and 1 up at my house, though. I'm using the 4g APN settings. There are only two sets of APN settings for AT&T; see my recent past posts for them.

That's not H+ speeds. I have been getting those speeds on my iPhone 4 since it came out.
Confusing
I don't think anyone actually knows what the correct APN settings are, they seem to be all over the place. On one post I found this one which claims to have an unlimited plan and very good speeds. Does anyone actually know and have numbers to back up?

so i finally got my att working withh H+ but the settings that did it for were not from here, but actually the settings from my CM7 ATRIX! i bolded the 2 things different in mine, this is all too confusing with me on why this works, now i am going to wait for ICS and that leather flip case everyone one enjoy this phone!!!!!!

Halp please
Is activating the sim ON a dumbphone necescary if we are using custome apn/settings?
Ive never done this but, isnt it more likely to be flagged if ANYTHING is different from activation phone to GNOTE?
I want to just buy a SIM from ATT claiming I have a GOPHONE ? and that would require ?"medianet" will that work?
AND obviously if this fails I buy a Straight Talk phone with SIM?

Midwest owners

Wondering if anyone here live in Minnesota mainly but i also want to get a general idea for att customers using the international note in the Midwest and what data speeds you get and apn configuration? I can never really pass 1.5 down and 1up ... whether default apn or the ones from the att apn thread.

[Q] AT&T APN settings for non-smartphones

Howdy! I've got a question for ya
At&t offers 3g speeds for their non-smartphone devices. Does anybody know the APN settings for these devices?
I know the 2g APN settings, which are below:
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
APN type: default,supl,agps,fota,dun
But after searching throughout this forum and on other parts of the internet, I haven't found any clues. I've got a quad band unlocked phone, and was hoping to take advantage of AT&T's 3g speeds at what i believe is their 1900MHz spectrum.
Thanks!
Brian
Anyone? The answer to this question seems so elusive, maybe it's more technical than I think.

[Q] Speedtest.net and Nexus 4 problem

I have the Speedtest.net app on my Nexus 4 and ever since I got the phone I can't properly run a test my ATT speeds. On Wifi it works great but when I turn off Wifi, Speedtest freaks out and it either gives me a very high ping around 260ms and the download is ALWAYS 0.01Mbps and upload stays around 0.5Mbps or sometimes it won't even connect and gives me error but I do get an IP and I can surf the web so it's not a connection issue.
I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like.
My main question is why can't it pick up a regular download speed? I never had this problem with my Galaxy Nexus.
Thanks
Probably the proxy settings in your APN. Remove those and you should be good. Post up the settings from the APN you're using if you're not sure what to edit.

Delete everything out of the Proxy setting. [Edit - you can delete the data out of the Port entry directly below Proxy as well]
I would guess that AT&T probably blocks or throttles this on their side to control bandwidth.
Yup, that did it, but wow I'm getting some really crappy results.. under 1Mbps
If your account is provisioned for HSPA+ you'll probably get better speeds using the phone or pta APN. There are a couple recent threads discussing this. I'll link later if you can't find anything.

you should get around 5-7 mbps, and MMS works correctly (both sending and receiving)
If these settings DO NOT work, then you need to call AT&T and have them upgrade your data plan to allow 4G! This will be free of charge.

No no no, don't do this or use those settings.
OP, you didn't mention that you are on a MEdia Net plan (dumb phone plan) and that is confusing the people trying to help you. Any time you mention cellular issues, you should specify the plan you are using.
Now, OP I can tell from your APN that you ARE on a MEdia Net plan. Next time, I would recommend you search the subforum for MEdia Net it will bring you to this thread, where the issue has been identified and resolved.
I posted on page 3 regarding the issue, which uses the same resolution that bedoig prescribed: delete the entry for proxy.
Now, being that you are on the MEdia Net plan, you won't be able to get speeds above 875KB/s down (7Mbps), even on HSPA+:15. AT&T apparently caps all dumb phone plans to that bandwidth. You won't get LTE and the phone/PTA APNs will not work for you. Those are smartphone APNs, so you should only use the default APN (which was automagically selected for you) but you can delete proxy to use bandwidth tests.
You could switch to a more expensive DataPro plan to get marginally faster speeds, but you'll be capped at 2GB/month and there's a chance you'll be caught tethering. I don't recommend you switch to DataPro for the very slight and unnoticeable upgrade in speed. AT&T doesn't monitor data use on MEdia Net plans so you can use well over 2GB on your current plan without issue. As I've mentioned in that thread and in several of my posts, I've once used over 12GB in a month; tethering for myself, my roommate, as our many guests because Comcast was being sheisty.
Now you've got all the info you need, and see that it was already available in another thread. I would recommend this thread for deletion because it adds clutter, not value. If people search for this answer, they will be linked to both threads.
Thats not necessarily true, my apn was originally the wap cingular one as well because I was using a nexus one prior, upon changing to the 'phone' apn, everything worked.
Depends how much the op is currently paying for data plan I guess if those settings don't work.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Well if it is going by plan, I have the grandfathered 'unlimited' plan and the APN settings seemed to work for me. Yup, 12Mbps down here!
I got another problem. Once I do a test and the speedtest uses GPS. GPS doesn't switch off and kills my battery unless I do a reboot.
I'm running AOKP, so it could be a problem related to that.
That's insane
