I just got a verizon Galaxy S4 that was blacklisted through verizon but I got it to work with my ATT SIM Card by changing the APN however MMS isnt working. Calls and SMS is working fine and showing my number. My questions are how do I get MMS to work?
Also can I flash a stock TW ATT I337 ROM to the verizon phone being ill be using it with ATT without Bricking it?

Make sure your APN includes the mmsc and MMS proxy settings. Also flashing an at&t ROM should work but you may get some slight issues.

Sprint Cannot Send MMS

The issue has been happening to me recently (as well as my girlfriend, also on Sprint) that we cannot send MMS messages.
My phone is an Epic 4g Touch on AOKP and rooted, hers is a Nexus S 4g running stock.
No idea what is causing the issue, but whenever we try to send an MMS to someone it just sits there saying "Sending..." until it possibly errors out.

You may have to set APN settings manually.Ask your service provider for the settings.
Sprint uses CDMA unless Wimax or LTE is different. Have you called Sprint tech support at all?

Gs3 sim work on n4?

I've searched everywhere and can't find the answer... I have an s3 but going to sell and was wondering if the n4 will take my sim and if so will it work without having to call my provider (bell) for apn settings?
Thanks!

Yes it should be fine. If you have to input APN settings just Google them.

Tethering on Rogers with AT&T Galaxy S 4

I've got a 32gb AT&T Galaxy S 4.
I unlocked it using the free and easy method via dialer (works fine for data and calling on Rogers now).
The phone works fine when tethering on AT&T sim card.
But when the Rogers sim card is in, it doesn't allow me to tether.
Is there any way around this WITHOUT rooting?

Sorry to Necro, but on Rogers ... if you have 1GB of data or more ... you automatically get tethering.
man I'm having the same annoying issue. AT&T s4 unlocked by code and I'm using it with Rogers right now. Not only I can't get the tethering to work I also don't get any OTA updates.

Mms sending but not receiving straight talk t-mobile

Just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if anyone has the fix for it. Maybe the apn settings are wrong with my simcard.

Make sure you have the correct APN settings for your carrier.
That's what I'm trying to find

It came setup out of the box, but the only person I can get pics FROM is someone else on T-Mobile networks also.

Search Google for TMobile or StraightTalk APN depending on the carrier you're using.

Tmobile on verizon note 3

I have a verizon note 3. I am on tmobile now. Using a jelly bean rom, I have everything working except for wi fi calling? Anyone know how to get it? or how to load a tmobile rom on the verizon note 3?
I tried loading a tmobile rom but the wifi would not connect?
Thanks,
Kevin
My first question to you would be do you have the correct APN configured for T-Mobile?

Wifi calling won't work for you even with a tmobile rom. Reason. It's tied into the tmobile service. However I've flashed a rom from every carrier and can confirm all but wifi calling works on non tmobile roms. Flash rom> flash wifi bluetooth data fix (find it on tmobile forum under international rom port) > flash kernel> flash csc files for your carrier (opitonal)

Would I be correct to assume that I would get 4g on metropcs with a sim because its basically tmobile?

Can you guys point me in the right direction to get the apn for LTE on metro? I've never set an apn before.

Out of curiosity, have those who have used T-Mobile SIM been able to get MMS? I found all the APN settings online in multiple places. Even used the APN from my TMO Moto X and can't get MMS to work. Always gets stuck in "downloading".
I haven't tried it on a bone stock TW ROM yet. Maybe issues with messaging apps on other ROMs??
Everything else works flawlessly. Even better speeds and signal strength than VZW in my area.
Won't see sim card.
I have a Verizon note 3 and it won't see my T-Mobile sim card. No matter what the sim won't register and I get a X over the signal bars. I already tried a Verizon sim and it works perfectly so I know it's not a hardware issue. Any solutions or ideas?
do a hard reset and then after that make sure your SIM card is the correct one its clean the contacts are in the correct position and then finally it should load up
if I may ask did you activate the phone when you first turn it on if not you're able to bypass the activation while using a Verizon dummy SIM card or no sim
once you load up your tmobile sim card in the top left notification area you should see where it says unknown sender is inserted
once you see this message you should be able to call anyone you'd like

Hey Kevin,
How about we trade phones an call it a day lol, i'm looking for a Verizon Note 3 since my company phone is Verizon (iphone5) - anyways my personal phone is a Note 3 for T-Mobile and was unlocked by receiving the password from T-Mobile (sim unlock) but still can't use it on Verizon. Msg me if interested please.
Thanks,
Daniel
So verizon note 3, can i use it internationally?
with the note 2 i rooted, flashed beans rom, then used hiAPN when I went overseas.
Note 3, much more difficult now?
Thanks~
You also have to change the Internet provider setting under network and select tmobile. There's a video about it on YouTube.
