I had h+ on my galaxy s2, and that's considered 4g, not lte of course, but it's been around a little while. The speeds are descent, better than 3g, but nowhere near lte speeds... Thanks for the input though!

New ATT sims

I have been using Straight Talk ATT for about a year and a half. Originally on my Samsung Captivate and now on a Galaxy S3. I have been getting H+ 4g from day one with the G3. Unfortunately when I bought the G3, the ATT sims were no longer available. The cappy used a full size sim and the G3 uses a mini sim. The Tmo sim wasn't an option for me. Tmo signal isn't great in my area (Central PA). I know people have cut down the full sim to mini size however I didn't want to do that. I had a working ATT phone and didn't want to lose that. My only option was to pay a premium price of around $50 for the ATT mini sim on eBay. Now I see that the ATT sims are back.

When I switched phones, I had to change the APN that I used because what was working in the cappy wouldn't work in the G3. Now I see with the re-issue of the ATT sims, they have changed the APN again. However, it does not work with my current sim. I still need to use the APN ia have been using in the G3. My guess is that I will need to change to the new APN when I refresh my ST account.

I am pretty sure that I was using the same settings with my cappy that you are with your G3. It looks like the current ATT Straight talk settings are the same as your's except the mms proxy is now 66.209.11.33

Looks like we both are currently running the same ROM. Just different releases.

i am always on the lastest releases of quantum, just never update my sig since i always access xda via my phone. I updated it just for you lol I actually just use the APN that CM puts in the APNS. I've seen your APN settings before, and I was expecting to get a text to switch to it, but I haven't yet

I am new to ST and have following two observations. Will appreciate comments from anyone using ST for a long time.

1) My ST APN got deleted overnight. Everything was working when I went to sleep and I noticed today morning it was gone. At home I was on wifi so I did not notice until today AM. I do recall running a backup late night - It is highly unlikely that could have deleted APN. I will observe few days to see if that happens again.

2) Another observation is that whenever I am in LTE area I "lose" data connection sometimes.I have never seen this happen in non lte area. Any chance this is due to fact that I have an LTE phone and modem and phone might be "trying" to connect to LTE signal? Again, I am very new to ST (using it for 45 days now) so I might be missing on few items.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
These are the only settings that work for me as well, except I now leave "apn type" blank. Everything works, I just seem to get a lot of connection time outs now!! Not cool!!!:rolleyes:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cnewsgrp:
Which ones work? There are two apn's in the reply you quoted. I am guessing its the second one - that one works for me as well. As for connection time outs do they happen in LTE area? They happen to me, but only where there is LTE signal.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] thanitos:
If neither APN works I'd call st. From a quick search on their website it seems some devices use different apns. From what I remember we had a customer using byod plan and the provided APN in the packet didn't work but a "quick" call and it was set, quick being if you have the corporate number that puts you directly through to a cs rep lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Yes, the second one, att.mvno. And yes, I am in an LTE area, but the time outs didn't start until I changed my apn. :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cnewsgrp:
Thanks. I am on mvno apn and has been great for last 2 days. No issues or dropouts. FYI I did a little bit of research and tfdata is new APN we must use after our account has been migrated by ST to new apn. SO bottomline continue using att.mvno apn and when data stops working with that apn switch to tfdata.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bstrong9211:
Everything is working with tfdata for me except receiving mms. Tried using both tf.net and Cingular mms settings
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] poppo101:
Depends?

I think it depends upon when you bought the sim. My settings (the tfdata settings) quoted work for me the other cingular settings do not. I had a Samsung Captivate on StraightTalk and I was using the cingular settings. Then when I bought my Galaxy S3 I purchased a mini sim on eBay because StraightTalk had stopped selling them I think it back the end of January. The only way to get an AT&T sim was to turn the full size sim into a mini. I didn't want to do that because I had a phone that was working with AT&T. I had bought a Windows 7 phone (didn't like it, sold it) to try it and put it on Tmobile since that was all that you could buy from StraightTalk. Problem was, Tmobile service in my part of PA is not good. So I bit the bullet and bought a sim on eBay only to discover that my APN settings no longer worked. After some searching, I found out that StraightTalk had changed the APN for AT&T. Now that ST is selling AT&T sims again, it looks like they went back to the old settings. However, as I mentioned they do not work for me. I did find a reference from someone who said that when they refilled the service that the tfdata settings no longer worked and they had to use the cingular settings. UPDATE - found the reference in post # 8 in this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2255377 It came from DMF1977 who has posted above on this thread. [MENTION=5071880]DMF1977[/MENTION] - thought I should share your post with this thread. It helps to explain things a little more. Thanks.

The long and the short of it is as I said, I think it depends on the sim and when it was purchased (or maybe the sim #).

On a side note, if you are having MMS issues, it may or may not be ST. I was having problems with not being able to receive picture MMS message. I have been running some ROMS that are JellyBean 4.3 based. Supposedly some of them are having MMS issues. To test this out I restored a backup of the stock ROM that I had made before playing with custom ROMs. Lo and behold, MMS is working with the tfdata settings I have. Going to go back to a custom ROM and see if the problem re-occurs.

Don't know if this helps anyone or not. Doing a Google search will bring up all kinds of problems people have had with the ST AT&T apn settings. Found this today - http://prepaidphonenews.com/2012/09/how-to-setup-straight-talk-data-and-mms.html

Whatever shoe fits, wear it. :D

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Yes, but I never used tfdata as my APN. I took my original sim out of a straight talk gs2, trimmed it, put it in my gs3 and used the original wap.tracfone APN that I had been using!!! That quit working about 2 or 3 weeks ago, and had to switch to att.mvno to get data back. :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] poppo101:
Yeah, I should have gone the trim route however I looked at it this way, if I screwed up the trim, I still had to pay the piper to get an ATT sim since the only option at that time as the bandits on eBay. T-Mobile just wasn't an option in my area. AT&T and Verizon pretty much control this area of central PA. There is a small regional company that has or had great coverage in a 10 county area except it was 2g only. Towers spaced closely together so that they covered almost every square mile. Plus they have roaming agreements with AT&T. They are currently running off of the AT&T as they supposedly upgrade their system to 4G and supposedly LTE. If they get that up and running I will probably go back to them since they now have monthly no contract plan for slightly more than ST. They didn't have the no contract when my contract expired so that was another reason I left them.

I just added to my reserve. Waiting to see what happens. Current refill runs out on 10/9
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cnewsgrp:
Agree. FYI - I have two phones SGS3 and iPhone. On SGS3 "old (att.mvno)" settings work "new (tfdata)" does not. For my iPhone new settings work - This is setup using iapnupdate...... Old (using unlockit) does not. Go figure.....:confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bstrong9211:
Okay, so first some backstory. I've been on straight talk for about 6 months on T-Mobile sim but recently decided to change to AT&T sim for the better coverage in my area. After activating the new sim mms wasn't working and after an hour with cs I was told my data plan was different on the main list than front list or something and they'd fix it. Today my mms started working and I refilled my plan and when I walked out of work I saw this.

Thoughts?

Read about it here.

Straight Talk LTE
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Pretty cool! But on the down side of that, it states download speeds of up to 8/Mbps. That's no where close to true lte speeds... :mad:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chrisdfw:
The site is wrong. I just got the new sim today and I am getting 12-16 down with good signal in Dallas.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
That's a little better, but still about half of what lte should be! I don't really understand this. I know everyone wants faster speeds and all, but its just going to get people to straight talks' data limit that much quicker, therefore data will be throttled, or in some cases cut off a lot sooner... Just my ¢ 0.2...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ~wolverine~:
Well the article states 8 MBps which is totally different than 8 Mbps. 8 MBps would be about 64 Mbps or 8100 kbps. But where I live we don't have that high tech LTE stuff. Last year AT&T upgraded the towers around here to 3G. Even made the local paper. So I can't confirm any of this. toot toot
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] osker83:
I got a new straight talk sim and lte does work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] athdaraxen:
Just wanted to report, snagged one of the new SIMs off the website as well. A deal at $6.99 and free shipping.

LTE strong and stable!

I've gotten as high as 12 mbps and as low as 7 mbps. The 8 mbps I got below was the middle after about 10 tests spaced 10 minutes apart.

Edit: Also, just a note. You MUST get a new SIM card. You can't just use your old one sadly.

i'm about to buy a mda compact. The seller says that he tried to update rom and the mda now is blocked with a screen USB/SERIAL V1.00

If I upgrade the rom how is described in the other topic is ok?

I had to say to know if i buy this one or no :D

I wait fiducious in your answers :lol:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] fla242:

This device is only in bootloader mode so you can reflash it without problem.

There is a lot of topics in this forum to perform that. :wink:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] vz7:
Beware though. I had once screwed my MDA during an upgrade and all it did was start iself in the bootloader mode. For some reason, I couldnt re-flash any ROM onto the machine and had to took it back to t-mobile and they replaced a new unit for me.

Mmm... this is a bad new... anyone help?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Redpizzi:
i had this problem too, all i did was kept trying to different roms till one finally worked

i Downloaded all the rom from the FTP site

1 finally worked then after that, i updated to the 1.12 Imate rom...

Can not tell you which one worked, but i had to copy it to a Memory card to do it

Maybe if you try the Windows Installers, 1 might work
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] RAGOv:
hi Herian..

1st of all,as the guys said,ur phone is in bootloader mode....it's not a problem,so don't be affraid :wink:

if u have'nt performed a flash before,am gonna try avoiding u flashing unless it's the last resort... :D

so bro,do the following:

1-remove the battery and leave ur PDA more than 2 hours without battery(u don't need 2 hours but am taking it to the limit),so that the backup battery will drain,all old data in RAM will be lost...put the battery again...and:if it restarts and enters OS,then congratulations,but if it doesn't,so u have to go to step 2.

2-reflash ur device:

-althought ur device is a Magician(at least this is what i think),all the procedures mentioned in my post(here's the link :wink: ) http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=25830&highlight= should work with no problem,the main difference wil be entering the bootloader mode,but since ur already in it :wink: ,it not a problem anymore,this is why you have to follow my instructions starting with step 2(the link,ok).

my advice for u will be to download the 1.12.00WWE ROM from the ftp,coz it's the last one,and good luck bro :D

tell us the news,or pm me anytime,it will be my pleasure to help u :D

RAGO :lol:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] C0nker:
First of all: hello, I am new here :D

I just got a Magician (MDA compact) and tried to update it. But it failed and now it is in the bootloader mode. When I try a new update, it stops in step 1 after a few minutes. On the Magician you can see "upgrade radio stack, please wait".

Any ideas? I am a little bit confused, so much money and now it doesnt't work :(
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] RAGOv:
hi COnker..

u must upgrade ur device with the right OS,ur case happens when u try to upgrade with a different OS(eg:upgrading a magician with a Himalaya ROM),but with the same operator(eg:i-mate jam upgraded with i-mate PDA ROM,u pass country ID error,and run ClearJmpCode.exe,and it ends by a dead jam in bootloader mode... :wink: ).

so my friend,what u have to do,is to go to ftp,and search for a ROM update made specifically for Magician(try 1.12.00WWE),then follow my instruction in the above topic.....

good luck :D

RAGO :lol:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Herian:
Noway :(

I had tryed several times whit a lot of MaUpgrade(finded on the ftp site) but noway... The upgrade show me a window with the version of current rom and the version of the upgrade rom... but is empty! Then, if i click on upgrade, after a few minutes the mdac shut down and the program give me a 150 error... i don't know what i have to do...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Herian:
I have read in some post here that is possible to do a backup of rom on sd card and to restore it.

If some good guy send me his backup files can i relive my mdac?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] splashboy:
Hi,

I had the same problem but i have found a way without upgrade it.

1. pull out your battery.

2. put in your charger ( not usb )

3. put in your battery and then again pull out your battery and then again put in your battery.

4. now you will see the phone is starting up and if you have calibrate your screen and the rest the phone gonna install allot of stuff but when its installing everything pull out your battery and charger.

5. put in your battery and press the power button and congratulations your phone is working again.

sorry for my english i am from belgium xD
