Converted SM-g930VL to SM-g930V (SMS issues) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

I flashed my phone successfully following a guide I found here on XDA and everything works great except for sending text messages. I can send MMS and receive SMS, make calls, LTE works, ect. From what I can tell I need to set up the SMSC from total wireless for it to work. The problem I have though is that Verizon has locked down access to the service menu to change it. Anyone have any ideas to how I can get this to work?
Phone: Galaxy S7
Original Carrier: Tracfone/Total wireless

VZW Phone To T-mobile - Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+

I have the Verizon model of the S6 Edge+ (SM-G928V) I want to know if it's possible to flash it with the t-mobile rom??
I currently have a T-mobile MicroSIM that i put into the verizon phone. I had to configure it with the t-mobile APN to get calls/text to work. Currently I have a few issues:
1) I can make & receive calls, send & receive texts, but CANNOT send mms, but i can recieve mms sent to me. (I tried to see if enabling wifi would make a difference but it doesn't)
2) I get an annoying message anytime the phone reboots that says I'm not using a verizon wireless SIM. (if anyone knows how to get rid of that, great. if not it's not such big of a deal)
3) How to remove the Verizion boot loading screen??
Do I run the risk of bricking or tripping knox if i try to use a t-mobile rom on a verizion phone? Or does anyone know how to resolve any of the issues i'm having? Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance. (and No, just getting the t-mobile version of phone is not an option for me)

You cannot rom that phone because Verizon nazis lock all bootloaders on all their devices. As for the sending mms you'll probably need to take it to a t-mobile store and have them sim unlock and flash their full apn. That should do it but I can't say for sure since I've never used a Verizon phone on t-mobile
So just to update: The issue with not being able to send mms messages is because of the Message+ app that was set as default messaging app (factory reset setting). When I changed the messaging app to the "Messages" Samsung app I'm able to send&receive mms with no issues. (Please note the proper APN settings must be set)
The other issues such as the loading screen and the SIM notification I'm not too worked about, but if you have any help on those that should be great.
The only *real* issues with using t-mobile sum card with vzw phone is that the service isn't all that great, I seem to have 3g in some areas where I can't send mms while on the phone, but other than that it works well on an unlocked phone.

I believe the radios in verizon phones don't cover all the band's that t-mobile uses. However t-mobile phones tend to run pretty well on Verizon so your signal issues will continue until t-mobile launches band 12 in your area, which is the primary band that Verizon uses for Lte
Samsung lists band 12 on their site for the Verizon S6e+.
Swipe left or right to get rid of the SIM message. I've posted a similar thread here too.

"Unlocked" Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 to Tmobile switch - cannot send text messages

"Unlocked" Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 to Tmobile switch - cannot send text messages
Please! HELP!!
I switched from Verizon to Tmobile and my stupid phone updated to Lollipop 5.0.1 and now I can't send text messages without calling Tmobile and having them send a signal to reprovision my phone EVERY time after it reboots (which I have to do EVERY day now that bluetooth sucks so hard and randomly stops all the time in Lollipop).
Before I accidentally hit the button to update, my phone would show my Verizon voicemails waiting in the notification area and say "No Service" until I called my voicemail and let it disconnect, to which effect it would seem to go to no signal to nothing to HSDPA to plus to 4G LTE and BAM! I'd be on Tmobile able to send texts and all (before which I could NOT send texts, but COULD receive them (IIRC), and make phone calls (WITHOUT dial tones being accepted (which seemed to be fixed in Lollipop by selecting long press tones in the phone settings), and I COULD browse the web, etc.).
NOW, that little workaround does NOT work anymore and I have to call Tblowbile to send that magical signal to my phone (which doesn't seem to take all the time for all people for some reason).
I DO have the APN entered correctly (as stated on their website) and setting the phone to and from global to global/lte/gsm and selecting tmobile as the mobile network in the settings does NOT work.
I GUARANTEE it is that stupid GRAYED OUT Verizon APN that I CANNOT remove that is causing ALL these problems (given the nature of the phone post-reboot on KitKat).
PLEASE, tell me how to delete that stupid VZW APN or how to downgrade to KitKat or of another workaround other than having to call the deceptive, bait and switch company that is Tmobile EVERY time!
I'M DESPERATE!
PLEASE, HELP!
You can't. The bootloader is locked on Verizon, which prevents root. They've also apparently blocked access to the APNs in firmware.
Your options? Head to the XDA Verizon S4 forums and check out their various guides.
P.S. T-Mobile is not pulling a bait and switch here. They are providing you with service, which is what you paid for. They have no control over the OTA function of the device. Unless you have proof that T-Mobile is baiting and switching, your comment is slanderous/libelous.

(T-Mobile) MMS and LTE do not work at the same time

Hello,
I just got a T-Mobile Galaxy S5. I have rooted and have done clean installs on CM13 and also tried Bliss.
If LTE is on, I do not receive text messages. I can only receive text messages when the network is in H+ or 3G.
I am using default APN settings and have not messed with it. What could be the issue? Thank you in advance for any help!
