Thank you. I found this out by going to Howard forums and someone posted their pan settings from a samsung s3 they bought directly from Metro pcs. They are the same settings you just posted here. T bad I found this out at 4 am in the morning lol.
These settings won't work on my att one xl on the metro network. Gives me a message besides the network switch that says incorrect apn settings.Just got it fixed 2 days ago , after trial and error I finnaly went to one of the main corperate stores and one of the guys gave me the apn settings , lol and I called metro pcs 3 times and the settings they gave me didn't work , here's 2 screen shots of the apn settings

those settings are wrong.
The apn must read
Fast.t-mobile.com
****NOT****
fast-t-mobile.com
Thank youuu
Thank you sooooon much. I called metro pcs many times nothing changed. i went to metro many times, nothing changed although she put the apn like a hundred times. finally i got frustrated and looked it up my self. now it works. when you want something done do it yourself. :good:
Thank you, that did the trick for me. I just moved from Straight Talk to MetroPCS. The rom I am currently running on my phone had MetroPCS APN settings built in, but they were different. I assume they must be for the old cdma network. In any case they were working for me, but LTE was only pulling 2 mbps. I changed to your settings, and speeds are now back to where they were on Straight Talk.
FINALLY!! I've been going through 6 weeks trying to get this fixed on my HTC8x! Thank you!!
Thanks
Those screen-shots totally worked for me. Thanks guys... now I can use my phone for tethering

I have entered these setting and they work here in the US.. I am now in Mexico and have called to get the mexico plan so i can use my phone but i can't get it to connect.. How can i get my HTC one working with these setting in mexico??
Unless you have an international plan with T-mobile your phone will not work outside of the US.
Besides this, I also had to enter an APN Type (HTC One M7):
APN type: default,mms,supl
I am connected to 4glte but my data only works on some of the apps. Anyone have a suggestion? I have my settings just like the screen shot posted.
Update on metroPCS APN settings.
Hello, all:
I just set up two phones on metroPCS, one of them a new Kindle Fire phone for my wife, and my Samsung S4 GT-i9500 [PhoenixROM]. I tried utilizing the settings supplied on the phone after the initial configuration; Internet connectivity from the phone did not work. I tried the settings listed here, but I continued to experience the same issue.
After dealing with these not working, I ended up taking a look at my wife's phone, which had worked without any problems immediately after setup. Upon comparing her settings to the settings listed here in XDA, the one big difference I had noticed was on the APN setting. When I changed the setting to what she had, it started working immediately.
If anyone is having a similar problem, change the "APN" setting to: fast.metropcs.com vice fast.tmobile.com (or fast.t-mobile.com); it should take care of the problem. HTH someone like the site has helped me.

Hello, I am in the same boat and the above posts have not worked for me. I recently bought the Elephone P6000 so it didn't come with any APNs by default.

Thank you very much for following up! Changing to fast.metropcs.com worked like a charm. Cheers!

Change name to metropcs not metripcs (not sure if this matters) , and as the above user said change APN to fast.metropcs.comHello, I am in the same boat and the above posts have not worked for me. I recently bought the Elephone P6000 so it didn't come with any APNs by default.

Name should not make a difference (whether MetroPCS, metripcs or LeroyJenkins, it's just the name)
Fast.t-mobile.com and fast.t-mobile.com both worked for my M8 (fast.metropcs.com did not anymore after Lollipop upgrade), however, since you are not using an HTC One, try using the fast.metropcs.com APN as suggested by OS2Tech. Good luck!
