Mobile network settings

When I go to my wireless network settings and hit the option mobile networks. I get an option to search for providers and when i do i get tmo and att. I think this is for data but i could be wrong. Could some one clear this up for me please. Ive also read that tmo is compatible with atts 1900mhz is that what that is. If so arent we running on tmo 1700mhz.

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)

I do get 4G on tmobile with my Verizon note 3. Have to set the apn correctly.

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.

Verizon International Travel

I have been to Mexico and Canada with my 6P and been unable to connect to local cellular networks. I have tried everything Verizon suggested and even tried a local Sim through Fido in Canada. Absolutely no luck. I've searched for an answer but can't find one. Any thoughts?

T-Mobile GS7 on Verizon

I bought Galaxy S7 from T-Mobile and switch to Verizon network, however the phone does not connect to Verizon network, it connect to AT&T and even when I try to use my international SIM card it works just fine except with Verizon.
I flashed the modem image of Verizon Galaxy S7 and I was able to get 4G LTE signal but no phone calls or SMS I tried to flash the Verizon image with no luck it gave me about the PIT file, I tried the TMobile PIT the Verizon image was larger than the TMobile partition.
Can anyone help me figure out which image or what partial image I can Flash to make the phone capable of using the Verizon phone network?
Hardware isnt compatible. Verizon is cdma tmobile/att/cricket is gsm. Been down that road. Cricket now has an unlimited lte plan for 65$ thats where I went. Best deal out there and prepaid, bill is always the same every month

There were differences before, but this isn't the case anymore, Verizon is GSM/CDMA today, and they default to GSM, and as for the GS7 there is absolutely no HW difference between the US market versions.
Can someone help me figuring which image contain the drivers/code that control which frequency the phone chip connect to.
To be more clear modem.img in android control the 4G/3G driver, what control the voice transport driver?

This is not true anymore, that changed when they started using sim cards.

Does the TMo version support all the LTE bands that Verizon has? Also, in the case you don't have LTE service, you won't get 3G at all, since Verizon doesn't support HSPA at all.

The CDMA radio on board isn't compatible with VZW voice network. This has been true for ages. VZW won't let a non-vzw certified device on their voice network because they literally don't have to. If your device supports compatible VoLTE that might work as it sends the call over GSM but if you ever lose LTE signal you won't be able to use that side of the network.

you can just flash to the verizon version without rooting the phone. Using odin.

Flash through odin doesn't require unlock bootloader. From what I have read. All four carrier can flash to each other without trigger anything.
N/a
When I try to flash using Odin, I get a message saying that the system image is larger than the partition, I tried to use the Verizon PIT to partition the storage with no luck!

info needed [forcing lte on sim 2 slot]

Hello guys, have a happy Christmas. Does anyone of you tried using forced lte mode apps on dual sim variant of s7 edge G935FD ? I just come across an issue that i can only force lte mode on sim 1 alot , but cannot do forced lte on sim 2 slot. I was using this app called "4g switcher", it opens some hidden android menu like this, but i can only do forced lte on sim 1 but not on sim 2, reason is that 4g signal are low and it constantly changes to hspa so i want to lock it down to 4g. Even tried disabling sim 1, still cannot force sim 2 to lte only.
Any idea guys ?

So anyone can provide insight why i cannot lock on lte only on sim 2 through this hidden menu ?
Sent from my S7 Edge using XDA Labs
So no one can give me any hint ? Is it impossible to force lte only on sim 2 ? Even after disabling sim 1 ?

Exactly.. some say rooting will help.. can't confirm
Sent from my S7 Edge using XDA Labs
I think when you root you can do it over the service menu *#0011#
Off course in Europe all the secret codes are locked without root.
In servicemode first you can choose stack 1 or 2 which is Sim1 or 2. But couldn't go further without root. So only way will be root and servicemode or some special band selection code für the duos versions. Just wondering no one has info about that. This should be defenitly in some custom rom!

Yeah, but can't confirm as not even rooted users have posted about this nor any custom rom users. I think 2nd sim 3g and 4g manual selection option is not there in the firmware..
