Correct AT&T Network Settings - Galaxy Tab 7.7 General

I purchased the Tab 7.7 and today went to the AT&T store to get a sim card for it. The guy at the store sold me the $30 3gb plan (discounted to about $22 with our USPS discount). He couldn't get the connection going and I eventually left the store with the sim card activated but not working. After an hour on the phone with customer support and trying all kinds of things, here is what you need to know:
1. You must get the $25 or higher data-connect plan. There is no commitment (contract)
2. You should get the welcome to AT&T text message
3. Once you insert the sim card, the default settings are wrong. Add a new APN and configure it as follows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And enjoy your connection! I'm posting this to help others so you can get yours up and running in a lot less time than I did.

Tmobile USA MMS Issues on HD2 HELP PLEASE :)

Hi Ive read over the posts in this forum and apologize if its a double post - however I cant get MMS working it always says the following You received a new MMS please download it (screen shot attached) this seems to happen on a intermittent basis when I select download sometimes after repeated attempts it will download and will end up being 3-7k in size and pretty much unviewable
Some ive attached screen shots of my data settings screen and the mms settings screen.
Any ideas, and even though this seems far fetched to me - do you think it matters that the sim is provisioned for a My Touch3G or Hero
I have tried both my Unlimited Post paid plan sim and my flex pay plan sim both which have unlimited data plans on them
Any ideas or input would be very welcome

NET10 nexus 4 T-Mobile APN settings

I don't know but in Miami I think AT&T sucks everyone I know drops so many calls, bad call quality, and average data. AT&T sucked for me on net10 and now they have a data cap 1.5gb. Now T-Mobile is much better for calls but data is weird just doesn't work sometimes it just freezes and I have to turn mobile data off and on.
Now for the past month have not been able to send MMS on nexus 4 called many times waited hours on hold nothing but check online as my answer. Anyway had to mix and match settings from their own site.
The highlighted is what I entered in for everything to work, try it out if you have the T-Mobile sim you can just switch everyday if you want. Didn't try the unlocked sim maybe it can do both I don't know.

I just created the same thread lol. I already tried this, didn't work for me
One troubleshooting step I would take is removing the other APN setting, but you can't... well I can't I'm not sure if there is a mod available that can do it

Google no longer giving out voice numbers?

Hello all, I am currently deployed to south Korea and I brought my vzw note 3 with me. I have a prepaid 3g data plan here and I was trying to get VoIP up and running, I have been using talkatone but I would like to use the hangouts with dialer. But no matter where I go I cannot find a place to get a google voice number.
Did they stop giving these out? The website just throws me in circles over and over.
Any help would be appreciated!

Stuck with Fake Note 4 Wont Connect to Network

So unfortunately my gf got scammed with a fake note4 not realizing there were fakes floating around Shes ok with owning up with her mistake and using the phone for the time being. (I've ordered her a new legit Note4 and should be arriving next week)
The phone seems pretty ok despite the knock off os; I would like to play with it and see how it pars up with the real thing but the damn thing wont register to the network. Every time I try to place a call it says mobile network not available; now it doesnt say not valid or blocked but after some poking around found that the IMEI doesnt match whats printed on the sticker in the back, could this be the issue? I am in Canada and carrier is Fido/Rogers.

I am able to access "Factory Mode" when trying to get to download mode it looks like some chinese recovery at least there maybe a possibility to root?
Im a lil stumped would appreciate any advice on how I can get this device working? or is this a lost cause? The phone is as Ive read in other threads SW is MOLLY and custom build version is I9228.
Thigns Ive tried:
-factory reset
-checked apn settings
-disable/enable network settings

Using this phone on AT&T without Data Plan

So as far as I'm aware:
If you have an AT&T branded smartphone, or any other that's in their system, and you insert a SIM that doesn't have a data plan, ATT will just add one for you.
(Because it's in their ToS that you need to have one blah blah blah.)
But if it's a non-ATT phone, it's hit or miss on whether they can detect your phone or not, and the risk is that they eventually might.
Now, has anyone that has unlocked their S4 through the methods posted here use their phone on AT&T without a data plan and tell me if they didn't eventually get detected?
I checked my IMEI with AT&T in two ways:
AT&T Unlock Page
As you would guess, it said go to your own carrier to unlock it,

AT&T BYOD Page
Putting my IMEI in just throws an error and asks to type it in again
I have a friend that uses a flip phone and I told her she could use my S4 since it's just sitting around being used as a TV remote, but she doesn't want to pay for data and I don't want to confuse her by telling her to switch to GoPhone, since her phone is on her parents account and stuff.
