No APN settings found? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i have recently flashed a custom rom meant for verzsion on my sprint phone, and i have done this before and the only thing i need to do to make it work is change the apn settings so text messaging goes through. ( it usually works fine, just has trouble retrieving SOME mms messages) well i went to mobile networks and apn settings aren't there. weird. only dating roaming option is in there. so i slept on it and the next day they showed up but it said i didn't have permission to edit or add a apn, so i rebooted my phone, and the apn settings aren't there anymore. I have tried asking voice control to open it, but says there is no app for that. So installed adb shell, and it recognizes my device and i can reboot it through adb, but thats about it. i am totally lost when i look up guides on how to change apn through it. What should i do? i need to change my apn to sprint if anyone is wondering.

Also, a good thing to mention is the current rom i am running is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-albe95-s6-port-1-0-t3092479

alright so i was able to get to my apns by downloading a app from google play and setting it as a system app. it opens up but now im getting this,

What about using the reset to default option?

still leaves me the same problem.

What about editing the apn file manually? I don't mean in the settings, I literally mean the actual file located somewhere in the system folders.

[G800F] Mobile data doesn't work

Hey guys, after installing CM 12.1 ROM on my G800F, I encountered a problem: my mobile data doesn't work neither on 3g nor on LTE. Everything with mobile data provider service is alright, I've tested it on original Samsung's ROM. What do I do?

You have to manually create an access point

How??
Settings-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names. Over there usually are 2 APN's, 1 for data, 1 for MMS. I think for most people it automatically setups, maybe that's not the case with your network.
So check on your networks website how to setup APNs, or go back to official Samsung ROM, screenshot both settings and make the same ones on CM11.

This is the part of my APN profile.
Settings >>>> mobile networks >>>>> access point names >>>>> add a new one like this:
Name:your operator name
APN:your operator name with " .net " in the end of the name
Server: same as operator
Im not sure wither its the same on all operators but that's how it works in my country
try it out and hit thanks if it works : D
Thank you, guys. I manually set the APN and it works like a charm!

Problem fingerprint 900f

I updated to marshmallow and every time i boot up the device i receive this: "Unable to use fingerprints. Device restarted. Enter password, then fingerprints can be used next time device locked."
It is my problem or it is normal ?
Tried removing the fingerprints and setting them up again from scratch?
Yes ... didnt work
Find out which app controls fingerprint, and clear cache and data
Can't find it... isnt that a setting, Can i even clear it?

I'M not sure it' s a bug.
Since the 1st version by firefds I got the same message when reboot !
I flashed many versions of MM. .. and always!
I don't use Fingerprint so don't know if it's a MM bug or not, but if more than one person is getting the same error, it looks like it might be
Fingerprints
I dont think this is a bug. I have the same issue, and 2 of my family/friends, also with S5MM kindly setup prints on their devices and had the same result.
Perhaps its why they ask you for a backup password when you set "fingerprints" up.?............(cant think of why a backup password otherwise......you cant forget your finger..
....unless you accidently chopped off relevant finger & then went and "lost" it!!!!) I am afraid we have to live with this

Can't Edit/Add APNs?

I am using the G935V, but have recently flashed the G935U firmware (and later rooted it) as I don't live in the U.S. and needed an unlocked firmware to use other networks.
With the Verizon firmware, you can't even edit the APN's. Now, I have a lot more options in terms of my network, but can't add or edit any of the APNs themselves. If I add an APN, it gets automatically deleted as soon as I save it. Any suggestions on what to do?
It says my access to this is "restricted", but my phone doesn't even have any "profiles". What does that even supposed to mean...

Or, there a way to edit APN's outside of the menu here? Via a root explorer or something to edit the system files?
What about flashing the CSC from Chinese firmwares? I just need access to Chinese 4g network.
Hi, did you finally manage to solve this?

Why don't you try installing a ROM? I installed Stang5Litre rom and I also have the U firmware and I use my phone with Cricket. Zero issues with service, it let me add my APN just fine so service is excellent.

Need help with default APN's

Can someone please screenshot there apn settings if you can get to them. I accidently deleted all of mine and ive looked everywhere trying to find them and can't. And also it is possible to edit apns without the 930u firmware. I factory reset my phone, wiped cache again, flashed the pe1 firmware through Odin and followed @colormedroid steps for root. Once completed I noticed my notification bar was different like the WiFi, data, and Service bars etc.. started tinkering and found that my apn settings were open for customization. Well I screwed up and cleared all of them. So I could use some help getting them back to default. Also somehow I didn't have very much bloat ware from sprint. But still had all the Samsung and Google stuff. Weird. As far as I remember though them are the steps I took. Again I reaaaaalllllyyyyy need them apn settings because I'm having trouble with service and making calls/texts. Thanks
You could just reodin lack to stock and it should reactivate upon installing. Sounds like you have a clean install anyway. I think you can edit apn by going to settings, mobile networks, access point names on rooted devices. There are about 7 entries. I've attached the lte settings. But may be easier to reflash and then reroot.

I didn't want to flash just for the fact of this time worked out very well for me. I did notice before I was always on that ehrpd network. Is it okay to jusy enter the lte one and run off of it?
Everything should be the same. Just change the bearer to ehrpd. You will need to two separate entries. I'm not sure if you select both under bearer if it will work.

Question Can anyone check if these list of apps look ok and also some permissions please?

Hey, I'm new to the forums. Decided to get the Nothing Phone 1. Seems ok atm but was a bit glitchy when first set up.
Just wanted to see if anyone could have a quick look through the app list to see if all looks ok.
Also I have some permissions which I'm unsure about for example on the shell app:
Reroute outgoing calls
android.permission.ACCEPT_HANDOVER
see and control calls through the system. (I noted this one because of the period at the end)
android.permission.REQUEST_OBSERVE_COMPANION_DEVICE_PRESENCE
android.permission.REQUEST_COMPANION_PROFILE_WATCH
download files without notification
android.permission.READ_NEARBY_STREAMING_POLICY
Edit: for some reason I can't attach the screenshots

What's your point man ? Nobody can't edit all yours apks .
What I've seen , you disabled randomly lot of important system apk so I think you may reset your phone , take a breath , learn some stuff on Google and after that you can setup again your phone , paid more attention on system apks .
No, I meant edit the image size, it's ok I'll work it out.
I've disabled the things I don't need for now. These permissions were there before I changed any settings. I did reset the phone after purchasing.
The most concerning me are reroute outgoing calls & download files without notification.
I haven't changed any settings in relation to this.
The reroute call permission also found in phone services
