Not able to Add APN for use with other networks

[yashshah87]

Hi Guys,

I have got SIM unlocked for my Sprint LG G5. Now whenever I try adding a new APN (to use with other network), it doesn't save..
(I have the MSL Code but even in ##3282# and enabled roaming.. No option to edit APN out there..)

Any solution would be highly appreciated..

It should be inside networks settings then APNs ( be sure to put 'default' in APN Type blank, i dont use ##3282# because at least for me it doesn't work for creating APNs

edit apn

Here what I found on another forum

APN edit/save issue finally solved on firmare ZV5.

On the phone enter ##786#, enter SPC/MSL
After the reset, re-unlock and the APN edit/save finally was available under Settings > More > Mobile Networks > APN

The only one problem is how to obtain SPC/MSL code?

How did you unlock your G5 after you did the reset? What firmware are you on?

 

[Franetti]

ZV5 and i had to pay someone

Once your G5 was unlocked, we're you able to change your APN settings? I got mine unlocked but have no data access because I'm unable to change the APN settings.

 

[Franetti]

Yes but i did what this post said, changed my msl to 000000 then did a reset and unlocked again

So you'd have to pay to have it unlocked again after the reset since you'll lose the unlock?

 

[Franetti]

Yes

Can't Add APN

I've tried all suggested methods to add APN on unlocked Sprint LS992 but to no avail (no options to add apn). Able to send texts and make calls but not data. When I enter settings>mobile networks>apn settings, there are no options to add apn. It just shows greyed out otasn. Anyone else come across this and if so, how did you solve the problem?

I am on ZV6. after inserting foreign SIM and setting mode to GSM, I can add APN via APN menu now. Just click menu button.

so did you have the phone unlocked for you online like others have and then upgraded to zv6 and still had your unlock or did you have it re-unlocked

were you on zv6 when you got your phone unlocked?

i was originally on zv5. i got it unlocked online but could not change pan settings. i then upgraded to zv6 but still i cannot change apn. maybe we need to upgrade to zv6 first before unlocking?
