Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

SOME ONE PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I PULL ALL MY HAIR OUT AND WASTE MORE ENDLESS HOURS PUNCHING IN DATA INFO THATS USELESS!!!!!
I have a GT-I9500 Android version 4.2.2 Baseband Version. I bought this phone from e-Bay and it came from china . I love the phone and regular texts work fine, calls work fine but just cant get the data to work. I need data outside of my home when I have it hooked into Wi-Fi.
Someone pleeeeeaaaaasssssseeeee help me. I live in PA and Ive activated the phone with the bigger size sim (as it is dual sim) couldn't fig out how to activate the mini sim so I removed it.
The initial apn ifo I was given for my area was :
Straight talk
APN: tfdata
MMSC http://mms-tf.net
MMS PROXY: mms3.tracfone.com
Port : 80
and it didn't work. I realize this is a generic version of a Samsung galaxy just not sure what number.
anyone have any suggestions

Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

Hello Everyone! I am fairly new to the forum and don't even know how to post a new thread :-\
I have an issue with my Samsung S4 (GT-i9505 with unlocked GSM). I am using the Straight Talk network with a T-Mobile sim. Three days ago, my internet stopped working and I had an icon that says "SIGN INTO NETWORK HOME" pop up... I spoke to Straight Talk customer service and they tried all their tricks, even had me reset my phone only to tell me in the end that it was probably my phone...sigh... I have tried almost everything I've seen posted on the forum to no avail.

Please, if anyone can help me get my internet going again, I would be eternally thankful- :'(

Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

So you have a SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 with at&t micro sim card and the above settings allows mms to work??? I am having a hard time getting mms for send and receive. I just bought a AT&T galaxy s4 and have the ST at&t micro sim card!

Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

I think you might have missed this step:

Once you do the edit I have listed above, reboot the phone. Add in a temp fake second APN, then get back to the main APN screen. Once you are there hit the menu button and select reset to default. Magically the new edit you did to the apns-conf.xml file will show with your Straight Talk edits. After that everything will work!

If you fixed up the apns-conf.xml file once you do the above step it will edit the default apn listed. You still will not be able to actively change it inside the android gui, however since you edited it at the file level you should be fine.

Are these the steps if you have a rooted S4? or just a regular s4?

I have the new apn setting for Samsung galaxy s4 for straight talk using a at&t phone for lte

MMSC = HTTP://MMS-TF.NET

Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

after you enter the new apn make sure to save the apn and delete the old apn and shut off the phone and restart and everything will work including mms and internet

Re: Samsung Galaxy S4 APN Straight Talk settings HELP

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 unlocked, bought from newegg unlocked. I used it for a month in Spain with a phone only micro sim from movistar, no problems, just used wifi for data. Now I am back in USA, bought straight talk micro sim (appears to be t mobile from default APN) and cannot get data/internet or MMS to work. Spent an hour on phone with straight talk tech support, they gave me two sets of APN data to try (see below). Neither worked, so they say the phone is bad.

Tried changing some parameters with what has worked for others in this thread, and big problem right now is that any time I change the MNC to 410 from 260, when I go to save the set of APN data it gets deleted. Any suggestions? Samsung says its a straight talk problem not a phone problem, including not properly saving APN data.

Try changing MNC to 410

I've been dicking around with this phone for over an hour now, thanks for all of these suggestions y'all! Finally online and able to send MMS with an unlocked S4 octo-core on ST, this finally works for me - the "NAME" field appears to be just for reference, too. Just try using those settings and change your MNC - hopefully yours will work too.
