This is no good. I popped in my T-Mobile SIM into my Verizon Moto X, and while the option to add an APN is there, it will NOT save. This happened after the KitKat update as on JB, I could manually add APNs and use T-Mo's service.
Disappointed. Any way to get around this?

Had the same issue on my ATT XT1058 - hard reset it and the problem was gone (just in case - power off, hold Vol- and Power buttons for few seconds, then choose Factory (with Vol-) and select (with Vol+))
Still no dice. Nothing saves. That means no MMS support and VERY limited data speeds.
Bummer.
EDIT: Here's what happens without an APN setup

Fixed it.
You can't leave MVNO type at 'None.' I selected IMSI, and the default value. Finally added the APN for T-Mobile. I might have to play with it a little more. I then put the MVNO back to None. Sometimes it'll take the APN out though, so I went back into the edit APN screen and saved it again while it was reconnecting to the HSPA+ network. Ugh. For now, it's staying put, but it might disappear.
Hmm, my data is still gimped with the APN setup. It's like there's something in the system preventing it from connecting at full speed.
Voice, SMS, and MMS work flawlessly though.
By gimped I mean my download speed is 0.05Mbps and upload is 1.0Mbps. It's like it's capped on my end. At one point I did get 0.5Mbps, but I know HSPA+ is capable of so much more.
So, Verizon may not SIM lock phones, but they're doing something to limit data.
I have the VZW APN permissions app and VZWAPNService disabled too.

Im in a little bit of a pinch. I never use voice and I use sip with 3g when I do.
So I thought of a solution.
I heard the sidekick could have just internet so...
To get your bill under 50 bucks you must have that.
I figured out how to have just a dataplan...
First go to t-mobile.com
And login

Stroll till you see this.
Then click the Not your phone link
Choose check sidekick.
Scroll down untill you see the green "t-mobile sidekick™" Click it.
Now it will go back to my t-mobile. scroll all the way down until the links at the bottom and click Plans & Services.
Click Change plan
Now scroll a little untill you see.
check the button and scroll all the way down and click change plan.
Now click manage.
press not my phone again
check t-mobile.
and scroll down untill you see your g1.
press the select button.
And congrats you are now paying less than 50 bucks for your g1 the sidekick plan will stay on even after you say its a g1 again ...
Also to get no data plan chose some cheepy phone and in services click no data plan ...
Any particular reason you dont select THIS plan: http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/plans/....aspx?tp=tb1&rateplan=T-Mobile-Total-Internet ??
Its even cheaper.
But if your on a sidekick plan then won't they cut off the data. People were complaining that they had the sidekick plan or the web2go or one of the other data plans and it worked until not to long ago. Now the G1 data will only work under the G1/Android data plan or am I looking at something wrong. I can't see the pics so I might be missing something.
No I meant choose like a cheap ghetto phone that can have just voice to do that.
Anyway I don't know what phone has that total internet so...
idk
Make sure you have HD Voice provisioned on your account https://wbillpay.verizonwireless.com/vzw/accountholder/services/displayProductsServices.action click on Manage Your Products, add HD Voice, should provision in ~15min
If you're not seeing Enhanced LTE, dial *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, scroll to turn on VoLTE flag, restart device or put into Airplane Mode
Now go to Settings ---> More ---> Cellular Networks and Enhanced LTE should now be enabled

Not working for me.....button in *#*#4636#*#* never changes to anything and I never have option in more settings
I think the key to getting this to work is to be on a 5.1 ROM.... I tried with 5.01 and the new baseband, but I think the settings are in the ROM.
Correct, you need to be on 5.1 for VoLTE
dissapears
i can get it on my phone but as soon as i go to use it i lose lte and then my advance option disappears. could it be possible my sim card doesn't support volte? I had to use a sim from an iphone 5 to get service. I think that sim is different from one that's in a M8 or moto x. Any input would be appreciated.
Edit- got it working by going on Verizon and removing hd voice and the adding it back. SIM card is fine..
Thanks Worked Like a charm. Finally the one major thing I wanted on the N6
Worked for me, but took about 5 - 10 minutes to provision. Thanks!
Worked for me, purchased directly from moto

Now to update the wife's phone and get it going there.
So I updated to CM12 and really like it, aside from the fact that I can no longer connect to mobile data (sometimes it will get 1x for a few seconds). I looked around online a bit and sure enough it looks like my APN settings must have been changed. The problem is that I cannot find where to edit/add APN settings. I tried the usual settings>mobile networks>more> etc etc... I tried different dialer codes like the usual ##3282# but the dialer wouldn't open the data menu. So, does anyone know of how to get to APN on a Spring GS4 running CM12? I know there are threads on this already but they all suggested things I have already tried. I even tried using an APN editor app to no avail. Any help is very much appreciated, I really like CM12, plus I lost my daily driver backup (rookie mistake), so I would really like this to work

From what I've seen most people use flashable for their APNs. Dialer codes only work on Touchwiz.

So let me explain what I'm trying to do. I am trying to connect to a Barco Clickshare (CSE-200) via wifi using the clickshare app and then open chrome and go to a website.
The Clickshare for those that don't know is a wireless content sharing device for meeting rooms. It's like a wireless access point but with no internet. You connect to it on your phone by connecting to its wifi SSID and password and then use the clickshare app to share content from your phone to a TV or whatever display the clickshare access point is connected to.
So when I connect to the clickshare wifi (which has no internet) I am no longer able to go to a website or use internet. My phone doesn't seem to be able to use my LTE service while the wifi is on. I talked to a guy at Barco and he said thats not normal. My LTE service should still be usable. My coworker who has the iPhone 6 is able to connect to the clickshare wifi and still use the internet on his phone from his LTE service.
I should note I am using the MSL/dun trick for hotspot.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Enable developer mode by tapping the build number in the about menu a bunch of times, then go to the new developer options menu at the bottom of the settings screen and turn on the keep mobile data turned on setting.
It's still possible that in the routing table on the phone the cellular data will be associated with a higher cost, and therefore the data still won't go over it even though it's enabled, bit worth a try.

I did what you said pitcherj, but no luck. I do now have the LTE icon at the top above the cell bars which before I didn't, but still no internet. Anything else I could try? I did restart the phone as well.
Nope, no thoughts. Without root you can't recost the network interfaces AFAIK. Maybe someone else has an idea.

I have an LG g6, its unlocked from sprint, I dont live at USA.
The problem relies onto the use of data when using whatsapp, is the only app with this problem .
When I try to send audio, images or videos through whatsapp (ONLY ON DATA, WIFI WORKS PERFECTLY), it never sends them. Another weird fact is that I can still recieve messages, and even images from other people, without they knowing I have recieved them, still my g6 wont send the image.
This problem only happens on whatsapp aplication, I can use other apps ON DATA, like facebook messenger without problems.
I have verified my network APN, uninstalled whatsapp, cleared cache, clear data, checked on application permissions (and activated all), and factory format my celphone, with no results.
Also as the phone is unlocked I tried to use other carrier sim, with the same results, data works everywhere but in whastapp.
Im desperate! Does anybody know anything that my help?
Also, I have the bluetooth deffect, I have to pair my bluetooth device everytime for it not to bug and sound glitchy on my car.
Internet upload problem solved:
