So just wanted to let you guys know at least this worked on my end. If you have the SM-G950U preordered S8 and using Sprint, you can edit MSL settings.
1. Go to diaper and type in ##3282#
2. Either view DATA or Edit
3. Type in '000000' as your MSL Code.
Don't know if you can really change too much but I'm going to play around a little.
Let me know if this is helpful to anyone or if anybody has any further suggestions or comments.
Worked for me also. Thanks for the information.

No problem. I'm not really sure what would be beneficial to change but it is good that we ha e the access.

I got it still can't edit the APNS
Yeah not sure why we can't. However, interestingly if we try to access APN list via settings - connections- mobile networks - access point names, I can see a list of 7 APNs. I assume most are only used for OTA updates and if you set your connection. From cdma/LTE mode to global mode. If I then go into DATA Menu and edit mode and click on the APNs then I can only see 2 options (EHRPD or LTE) but I am able to select the one I want and change it. However, I do see that I don't have the option to add a APN. This might be a limitation when using Sprint as the carrier.

Well the thing is that I have a sprint Galaxy S8 with i bought "unlocked" to my surprise it wasn't I have ATT. So im looking to whatever i can t get this cellphone unlocked!!!! Since I don't have a Sprint SIM. I can't edit APNS on settings!!
Hmm well I figured you probably already tried this but earlier if I went to Settings- connections - mobile networks- network mode and changed to gsm/umts I was able to then click manual and search for network and connect to either AT&T or T-Mobile. Not sure if this Must be done first.

I went to Settings-conection- I don't have mobile networks here.
I don't know if you need to have a sprint sim for this. But right now I don't have any sim because Im using ATT and using a older phone to be able to have a phone!!!
Okay so I just tried this option. Go into the connection and network mode and change to automatic. Then had to restart. Once restarted I went back to network mode and changed to gsm. Then I went to network operators and searched for network. Got the error that it must kill data connection before searching. I selected ok and searched. Att and T-Mobile came up. I selected Att and it said it registered on AT&T. I don't have an AT&T SIM so I can't test. However, in the morning of I see my roommate I might be able to try his SIM.
Also you might have to select gsm mode and then do the ##3282# and edit mode first and then go into settings to change network operators. Not sure but it seems ##3282# edit mode must be done to unlock additional settings in the phone.

Don't have conection mode either. I'm thinking you have this enabled because you have a sprint sim in it!!
Did you buy the phone already activated on Sprint network? And also it is a G950U correct? The only reason I ask is because I think the G950U is unlocked but if it was already activated on Sprint, then you might have to factory reset the phone and have the AT&T SIM inserted to have AT&T be your carrier.

I don't know I bought it from somebody locally who said it was unlocked and yes it says G90U but when I insert the sim card it says invalid sim card.
Let me try the reset with the AT&T sim in it to see
When I first turned the phone on it never had the Sprint splash screen until it finished setting up and power cycled. That was the first thing I noticed. Also the phone should be unlocked by default bc this variant is exactly the same for the 4 major carriers. When I checked the firmware both CSC and AP it was the exact same as T-Mobile firmware.
Please let me know if that works. It is just a suggestion and there is so much confusion on this at least from my part. Not to mention not much info on the forum yet. If this works then it might shed some light on the G950U variant.

Does not work. Is says please provide the UICC that came with the phone. So apparently when you activate it with a provider it locks!!
Sounds like it might SIM carrier lock. I think the law last year stated that we have to be able to swap phone on any carrier in the US. There is a UICC unlock under settings and software updates but it wouldn't work for me. If I remember properly I had to wait about a month or two before they would let me UICC unlock it. On samfirmware there isn't an AT&T firmware uploaded yet. There should be soon. You could try to wipe and use the T-Mobile firmware as this is GSM and will at least be the network of roam for AT&T. Might at least allow you to use the SIM or at least activate on AT&T

So i am currently in the uk (northern ireland to be exact) when i try to select a network (O2, Vodafone, tmobile) it wont register, it sees the network but it wont connect to it. Besically i am using the tab with my tmobile sim not a local sim, and the tab is still network locked to tmobile. Any ideas on how i can get it to register to a local network? I am not looking to unlock the tab (not right now at least) and run it with a local sim just trying to connect to a network just in case i need to make a call.

Do you have "WorldClass International Roaming" enabled on your plan?
Regards,
Dave
Well i am not sure,i actually checked my account and all i see is somethibg called world class international service, my wife has this option on her line but her phones does not connect either so i not sure thats not the only thing that needs to be activated. There is no way for me to select that service on my line. I also have an old phone wich was unlocked and using a prepaid sim card and it does not connect either. Could it be the sim that is not allowing to connect?

You can add that above mentioned roaming service for the time you are away. I think you can do it through the att.com website. But get ready for a shock - it's a buttload of cash for data and cell.
You're at a pc, right? If it's windows 7 and you have your cable, why not unlock it and buy a local sim? That's my solution when I'm out of the US.
As metioned on my previous post my wife has that service on her line and she still cant get it to register on the local network. Might be the sim we have,tmo, its not letting us connect. Ill have to call them when i get back to the us and find out why. I am waiting to contact tmo to get my unlock code for the tab, i am not confortable using adb.
Sent from HAL 9000
You can follow the cut-paste steps from Roto to unlock tab without adb. Just get a terminal emulator from the market, and open it, then do the copy-paste in the emulator. It's cool!
Did you check your network settings to enable roaming?
I have also noticed that the GPS was not working either, I was driving and had GPS test running for over 5minutes and it never locked the most I got was 4 satellites but didn't lock on any of them. Mind you I was driving out in the country and clear skies no idea why GPS would not lock in northern Ireland.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
When I can't get a lock, like right after flashing a new rom/kernal, I go into recovery (power +volume up), and clear the cache partition (don't factory reset!), then I use a market app called Here I Am 2 to get the first position lock in a new region or country.

Ok it seem to have worked by doing what u suggested but how can i make sure it is unlocked since i dont have a non tmo sim?
I did have roaming enabled and still nothing, i will call tmo to ask and see what they say.
Sent from HAL 9000
The only way to know if you are unlocked is by using another carrier's sim. Just borrow one from a friendly local, or buy a prepaid sim to use for local calls.

So i seemed to have unlocked the tab using rotos method, i went out and got a att sim to try and see if it actually worked but i can not get the tab to run on the att sim. I did use the sim to unlock my tmo vibrant and it worked with no issues, so what am i doing wrong? Do i need a new modem for the sim to work? I also tried using the apn settings from the vibrant running the att sim and nothing, tried apn settings from google and nothing, what gives? Any advise? Thanks.

Also I rarely see any threads for the G900L version...

Pop in a Tmo or ATT sim and see if it works. I don't believe there is a screen or setting that shows "unlocked".
Edit: You will need to enter the correct APN for these carriers to get data.

Yeah, for me, that's my way to check it, insert SIM card from different carriers.
there is no other way to test this, other than popping in a different SIM?
Just bought verizon galaxy S 5. Changed SIM to AT&T from straight talk. First of all was that a mistake? When ever i leave a wi-fi area the phone goes to emergency calls only. Email and text stops as well. Can't get voice mail to work anywhere
Would appreciate any help.

Just a thought, go to settings /more networks and make sure you have the correct network checked
New to verizon galaxy s 5
The network was correct . Wondering if im in a bad area. My Iphone 4 works fine. Might be AT&T

Wait... you put an AT&T sim in your phone? This is a Verizon forum. If I misunderstood, please tell me.
Just to be clear because you didn't state it in your post, you must unlock your phone prior to using a non-Verizon SIM. You can sometimes get these unlock codes from Verizon but you can also buy them online. I've used GSMLiberty.net with success before. After that, you should be able to pop in your SIM from the new carrier and begin using it right away. In some cases, you may need to manually add the correct APN for your carrier. Find these settings under Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Access point names. Click the little plus icon in the top right and manually enter AT&T's APN information. You may need to Google that as I don't know AT&T's APN info.
I use my Verizon S5 on T-Mobile's networks with absolutely no issues, I assume it would be a similar experience for AT&T as well. For me, I put my T-Mobile SIM card in and could make calls and receive texts, but mobile data and MMS was not working properly until I manually added the correct APN information. After that, MMS, 4G LTE data and everything is working flawlessly.
You do not need an unlock code for a LTE Verizon phone. These phones are already unlocked. One must set the correct APN.
Do not buy an unlock code!
I have used my Verizon S5 with att and t-mobile.
Good luck.

Thank you for your posts. Most of the phone works. When I leave a wi-fi area my phone goes to emergency calls only. When I go back to a wi-fi area the normal call service works again. I'm new to verizon and samsung. Wanted to use straight talk because i didn't feel like paying a fortune for service. I'll get it figured out some way.
Thank you again

Heres the issue. Sprint is a CDMA network, Family Mobile is Powered by T-Mobile, a GSM network. The odds of a sprint device working with any other carrier that isn't CDMA is next to none. I work at T-Mobile and we run across this issue frequently, sprint devices aren't compatible with our networks because of sprints difference in network hardware.

Ive unlocked the phone and it has a CDMA or a global GSM option so i doubt thats the issue. However it seems my actualy issue was that the person who sold me the phone only reported it stolen or missing once i bought it from him.

Take the device to a sprint store and have them run the IMEI, they can tell you. Having it unlocked doesnt mean its GSM if the hardware doesnt support GSM. I have that issue with sprint phones all the time.

The ls997 is gsm compatible, the only thing it wont do is Voice LTE, this will only work on sprint. Most sprint phones use sim cards now days, so the majority of sprint phone can be unlocked to be used on a gsm carrier.

However when I insert NON-Sprint SIM CARD, the device can't recognize the SIM CARD.
Also I tried to add APN but the device can't save it. (even I clicked SAVE, the new APN does not show up as an option to select).
I am stuck here so badly now. i have 3 LG v20 and plan to move somewhere but I'd like to use them. arghh.
I fought back with Sprint and got MSL code but.. not sure what I can do with it.
There are so many other people in the sprint community forum who are having the same issue as me).
any help/options are appreciated.

Does it say Sim not present? If not, go online and search for APN settings for whatever network your on and enter them in as listed. On the screen you posted, click "access point names" and transpose the data from whatever your carrier's APN settings.

I glanced at these but didn't read the whole threads. Pretty sure they address sprint sim card locking post update. It may be worth reading about to see if yours is a similar situation. Good luck man.
I'm kind of in the same boat, essential phone openus variant with no service. I've tried different things and have been able to get it to work but just for some time before it gets no service again or some odd behavior. I don't get invalid sim or no sim notification, it is a no service notification, apparently it recognizes SIM and accepts it but is not able to find a network, as if it were out of coverage or mobile radio off. SIM card has been tested in another essential phone at same location and works flawlessly.
So far I've found that if I downgrade software to nougat and then update to oreo or pie, and then insert SIM, phone is able to get LTE connection, receive or make calls, it works fine. But then after a couple of hours or even half a day, it gets no service again. Network or factory resetting doesn't do anything, changing network settings neither,then after If phone is restarted with sim in or if sim is inserted while on, it immediately shows voicemail notification but there is no way to retrieve it of course.
Most of the times at network settings it gets and shows the correct apn but it doesn't let to choose network manually, it turns back to automatically and says no networks available. Some times I get a rare relation with wifi connection, if wifi is on and connected it shows carrier name as if ti was connected to network but no calls in or out, as soon as wifi is turned off or disconnects, carrier goes back to No Service.
Maybe someone knowing this has some idea of why phone has this strange behavior which makes it useless as a phone.

I think your phone locked for Sprint like mine , call them to unlock it .
mine is unlocked From Sprint now , but i sill need a Sprint Sim to complete the unlock process which i didn't get yet , I don't know where i can get one (I LIVE IN MOROCCO)
I guess it's possible but I really don't think that phone could be locked to sprint. I understand although sprint variant is supposed to be locked, most users are able to use other carrier sim, and only the pie update has shown invalid sim, which is not this case by the way.

ok, so maybe flashing modemst images for openus variant could solve the problem, I don't mind trying if they come available but haven't found them yet.
