From a Metro Rep

I am having the same problem. Can't find how to fix it.
I sell Metro and still can not always find a fix. Sometimes the original carrier can get them to work, other times not so. :confused: I have found that T-Mobile devices tend to automatically revert back to the TM APN.:mad: If you can get the device to delete the original APN, this problem usually goes away. :D:D T-Mobile usually has less problems than AT&T though.

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.
Thank you so much OS2Tech. I changed my APN setting from fast.t-mobile.com to fast.metropcs.com and went from 2G with no actual data (with an exclamation mark next to the icon) to full LTE with no issues! You have saved me! I had just switched over to MetroPCS from T-Mobile, and I was beginning to worry that it might not work for some weird reasons. But your solution has worked wonders! Props to you!
