I had a question. Is a sim card needed to be inside Nexus 5 in order for the APN settings to stick?

Yea because Android only shows APNs compatible with the MCC-MNC of the SIM inserted

I learned that today, I guess thats with the newer stuff though? My G1 always had to be programmed in

the physical body. seems to have the same texture and screen size.

Screen size? The Esteem has a 4.3" and the N5 has a 5"

Ok that's what I was asking, it's been over a year since I had the Esteem.

Actually the entire physical body is close to the same, the esteem has quite the border around the screen while the N5 the screen goes almost all the way to the edges.

But looking at the phone they look nothing alike. I do not have the N5 here but I do have both the esteem and the N4 in front of me.

I would say esteem seems more like a Sony device rather than nexus like the esteem feels so heavy ..I love it boxyness and girth I wonder if the metal Sony phones have that grithy feel...(maybe I should have a brick instead of a phone Lol)

Yes I changed it to the T-Mobile one. Much faster

The bottom one. Its the most recent tmobile APN made for all the changes with modernization.

Make a new one under T-Mobile internet like mine and delete the other ones.

Okay deleted them and it stuck but now I don't get internet?

It takes a second when you choose the new one

just to let you guys know it did not work for me. i can make the apn stick and the phone gets signal but no data. i gave it an hour. i can make receive calls, send receive sms but no data.

Pretty danm well!

This is all on metros APN, tmos wasn't sticking and I didn't feel comfortable deleting the metro one specially that it is working so well!

Just upgraded from my MetroPCS Galaxy S3 (CDMA) to my new 32 GB Nexus 5.. Which I found on craigslist.. That some one sold to me for 350 cash.. Yeah not bad I know.. That the reason I made the switch.. My S3 never did me wrong but.. I am hitting 20mbit download and like 12 Mbit upload in central Florida... I used to be happy with 12 down and 3 up .. Ha! ... Let's see if I can break my personal record of 25gb data usage in One month...

I just got my service activated and never noticed how slow, or that I wouldn't get internet connection because I always use the wi-fi. Now that i've been moving around, i hardly get signal. I'm using Metro and tried to change the APN to t-mobile, but its nots working. How do I fix this?

Same here, how else could we fix this problem?

 

[tweetycda]

Hav you tried the standard apns for your device ?

Which would be? I tried metros and T-mobiles? Its slow or I just dont have internet.

 

[akmsr]

I think that the people who made tmobile APN work on their nexus 5 are all rooted.
Regardless of rooted or not if you don't have good signal at your location, it's not going to do anything. Did you go to tmobile website and checked your coverage?

I actually have a nexus 4 and my APN settings changed to these new ones once I did a factory reset for unrelated reasons. The new APNs actually broke my WiFi hotspot functionality. I had to go in and change my APN protocol from IPv4 to IPv4/IPv6 to make it work again. Anyone else have this issue?

After a week with my phone I realized nobody received any MMS that I sent. Even after changing my APN none of my test pics went through. Then Metro wasn't even getting my "pay 110.00" texts and I had to pay my bill online. After a couple of hours I realized my problem may be Hangouts. I downloaded Handcent made it my default and everything worked for me. I just changed the Handcent icon to the Hangouts one to keep the Nexus look. I'm not sure why I was having these issues but at this point I'm happy and I really don't need Hangouts anyway.
