So you are like me in an area where there is no LTE and your data speed is slow. Just add the HSPA APN and your speed will increase. Simple...

Here are some screenshots on what to add.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] mjybarr:
Here are some before and after screenshots.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] No_Nickname90:
Okay, so you're saying an area that doesn't have LTE. What if you do have LTE? I have LTE in places around Houston, but I'd love for my HSPA to be faster. Will this break my LTE?

It's so awesome. I'm at my friend's apt right now and I seen 24.8Mbps. Like WTF!? \('o')/

It does say adding something and not just replacing. I guess I can give this a try right now. I'll post back to see if my LTE falters.

EDIT: Well I've added the new APN. Everytime I try and select it, it jumps back to the default APN. Maybe it will switch when I leave this LTE area. I'll try then.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] razball:

It will not break your LTE.

Right hand corner the are 3 dots, press that to add new APN.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] I Like Soup:
I've gone back and forth on the change and at times, the upload speed is quite miserable. I've seen some uptick in the download speeds for the better on the order of going from around 2.5 - 2.9M up to 3.6 - 4.6M. Certainly not the increases some of you are seeing, but I'll keep my eye on this. Thanks nonetheless!

Make sure your putting the information in right.

And this does work, I've gone from an average of 3 to 4 down to 14 to 17 down. My upload hasn't changed much but that's fine.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] TrueYears:
its subjective, when I was upstairs in my house, I noticed like a 11% increase in speeds, but when I was downstairs, I did not notice any increase at all.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Dacp283:

Ok I found my screw up. This made a huge difference. First run was negligible so went back to stock. Switched it again and it doubled.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lojak29:
Make sure u enter apn type as default,mms,supl

That will make it stick and not revert

Atleast thats what I did and it stayed on the new apn setting.

Add default,mms,supl

To the apn type at bottom thatl make it stick.. and not revert
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lojak29:
Just went from 3mbps on fast.t-mobile.com apn settings ,to 14 mbps 0n hspa apn settings just by doing this apn change, it's true we all mostly live in clear hspa coverage areas.Speeds are truly slower when they set the HTC one up from factory for lte speeds from the get go, so if u don't get lte YET, we are only getting 3g by default based on speed tests not the 4g icon, that is always gonna say 4g,,,thats why u need to add the hspa apn settings everyone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jonathan3579:
The sad part is that this worked for me and in a lot (most) of cases made my HSPA+ faster than my LTE here in Houston. :rolleyes:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lojak29:
It really shouldn't have made s difference battery life is relevant to a weak signal constant search for networks that's why Batt life on WiFi is always superior .

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] mrmizzo:
for whome it may concern i dont know what im doing d=

Hi, I reside in a non LTE area I tried the non LTE APN as suggested. Speed test resulted in around 3mbps the fast tmo APN resulted in around 5 and 6mbps... After fooling around with the LTE APN settings I managed to achieve speeds as high as 47.7mbps! Pretty minor and easy changes, both APN protocol and APN roaming protocol changed from v4 to v4/v6 and then change the barrier from undefined to LTE. Happy high speeding!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] milan03:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Gamesoul Master:
I can't speak for speed differences (haven't tried it yet), but I can at least verify that when I had my S2, those were the exact settings it used by default. So regardless of how well they work for people, it is the proper (and default) APN setting for at least one other 42 Mbit capable device on T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] flashfox:
Thanks! You saved me the aggravation of having to swap phones :)

I bought a HTC ONE and could not get more than 4-5 Mbps down in this HSPA+42 area. My Nexus 4 gets 12-15 Mbps, same cell tower, same signal strength, same test. I was about to return my ONE until I found your post. Made the simple APN addition and I am now getting 12-15 Mbps down :)

Mind you, we have HSPA+42 but not LTE yet.

Question --> If I go to a LTE supported area (San Diego for example), do I need to revert the APN setting to the original one?

This is how mine looks too, without the APN Protocol and then with the added option at the bottom of Bearer. Any idea what that last one means? The options when you click on it are LTE, eHRPD or Unspecified.

I changed everything I could on mine (except the APN Protocol) and my speeds are the same. But honestely I am not sure if I get 42 speeds here in Des Moines, Ia. My MMS still work though.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Devans32:
Will this work on any T-Mobile phone?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
As far as I know it works on most phones, just be careful with APN type, not all types are supported on every phone (such as the HTC one doesn't support "dun")

I wanted to add my two cents on this, i use fast.tmobile.com (with or without the dash I experience the same speeds) the fast.t-mobile.com is supposed to be for LTE but atlanta doesn't have LTE yet so I can't test that, otherwise i'm getting on average 13 down I have a pic of my speeds and APN setting which give me pretty decent speeds.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] tdagraca:
I have the tmobile vesion that I converted to the developer editiong by converting my cid to 11111111, and I feel like my speeds got slower. I tried changing the apn and I noticed there is a difference if you keep the dash as in "T-Mobile.com" and not putting the dash as in tmobile.com...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Did you use the APN type "default,supl,admin,hipri,mms"? I've read that some people get faster speeds without the dash and some get it with the dash. I personally use without the dash. But I get generally the same speeds. Is there LTE in your area?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] GoyoNeuff:
Thanks !

My settings are all the same, except that I do not have the "APN protocol" or the "APN roaming protocol" options. Any ideas why?

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
It might just be your area. Try the epc.tmobile.com and see if that works for you. Are you on a custom ROM?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] aebilo630:
SW Houston Texas

SW Houston / Stafford / Sugar Land area

Stock APN Settings: ~9.5 Mbit

Modified APN: ~6.5 Mbit

My stock T-Mobile settings are faster in this area.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] chakra:
What were your stock settings? fast.t-mobile.com?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] aebilo630:
Yes, fast.t-mobile

BUT I changed the custom apn type to include admin and hipri - like the stock original fast.t-mobile does.

I used to use AT&T and had better speeds adding admin and hipri - T Mobile yields similar results.

APN Type: default,mms,supl,admin,hipri

Speeds for the custom APN are now in between 9 and 10 Mbit after modifying the APN type listed.

Try it out let me know what you get

Note: I see that jgeorge15 has suggested the same thing earlier today a few posts back.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Yup you're right adding the hipri and admin does increase the speed. I didn't mention that in my post though. Most of the reason my speeds jumped from 6mbps to around 13-14 Mbps. Although I see some people changing the protocol to ipv4/ipv6 and changing the bearer to LTE. Those settings make me unable to connect to data at all. Anyone else try it?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] tdagraca:
I am not on a custom rom..but yes I noticed when I left my house the edge icon went away... but I am not on a custom rom..just on the stock dev RUU for the 1.29 update
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Hmmmmm, well seems it might just be spots in your house. Every where in my house I get H+ but in my basement I'm getting edge. So it could be that. You could always wipe and factory reset but I think it'll be a waste of your time. Use WiFi in your home you won't have to look at the ugly edge icon :P
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
*UPDATE*

Georgia just got LTE, and with my settings if you couple the data and mms together it seems that you can't send picture messages. So my suggestion would be keep your default settting on the HTC one. Should be fast.t-mobile.com and then in the apn type add "admin" it should significantly increase your speed. And then there should be a seperate apn for mms. I'm getting almost 30 mbps now.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sambodie:
Tried both settings here in Central KY. No difference. LTE just found in Lexington, same speed for both access points.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Sometimes the access points lead to the same server maybe that's your case? For me when I change the access point I get two different servers. One being from Comcast in Atlanta and one being from Charter in Sugar Hill.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sambodie:
I checked the Speedtest logs, I was connected to the same server each time.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Yeah that's most likely the cause of the same speeds. For your case changing the APN doesn't help. Sorry dude.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] megabiteg:
Did you try removing the mms of the list in APN TYPE? Maybe removing just the mms part will help with that because if we notice there is already an APN exclusively for that.

I don't have LTE right now at home but I will have tomorrow morning, but can someone verify?

Edit: I have just tested my MMS service after removing the mms quote that's on the APN TYPE field. I can confirm that it worked for me exchanging these setting while in 4G. Haven't tested it on LTE.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
I didn't have a dedicated APN for MMS. So when I was saying what I said I meant if you put it all together (MMS and Data) and you don't have a dedicated MMS APN then MMS won't work. So switching to default and adding admin should be enough to increase your speeds.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] megabiteg:
Agreed.

But regardless I tested my theory with LTE and I can confirm that it doesn't work at all for downloading MMS, it can send but no receive, so its best o leave the mms quote in the list.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
I actually did not even notice this issue until recently since I barely ever use MMS. Now when I send or recieve an MMS my network automatically kicks down to H+ then once its done send/receiving go back to LTE. Strange. T-Mobile probably hasn't changed their MMS to go though LTE yet (or perfected it) it was the same on Verizon for a while until they made all SMS and MMS compatible with their LTE network.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] megabiteg:
Are you using stock or a custom ROM? I did a text almost now sending mms with LTE and I can't replicate that. Check your phone settings and try again also in different areas to see if you experience the same behavior.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Custom ROM. But its 4.1.2 sense based.

I'll get back to you once I get down to Atlanta in a couple hours. No LTE on the outskirts yet unfortunately.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
They seems to have fixed it today. I can send and receive both SMS and MMS over LTE. Good news.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] capcanuck:
I have lte in my area, but not always.. Is there no way to have the phone switch apns depending on what market you're in? Or is it one or the other...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jgeorge15:
Either APN I use I get the same speeds on LTE or H+ (might be different for you)so is there a particular reason you want to change from one to the other? As far as I know there's not a way to tell your phone "if LTE is available use this APN" maybe there's some app out there that might have some sort of function similar but I don't see how it could ever be efficient. Seems like a sure way of disconnecting data services constantly (especially if you're in an area that has only very little LTE)
