Tried to follow this, having a heck of a time.

I went into system etc apn xml, found my carrier apn named T-Mobile LTE

But it didn't match the apn in settings under access point names. Also you said to also find the dun, there was no dun for TMobile LTE any where. I seen dun entries for other TMobile apns, but not the one named TMobile LTE. There were manyother TMobile entries, like TMobile US 160, 260, 270 and a bunch of other numbers. Under my settings/access points, the apn selected is named TMobile LTE with no number after, so I figure that's what I need to look for in the xml, so I find it, but again, the info under it doesnt match the MCC and MCN numbers don't match and the Apn type doesn't either. For example , in my settings/access points, the last apn type is xcap, but in the xml xcap isnt there, there's just default, supl. Mentioned it because Im guessing they need to match? But they don't.

Also, when I do find the right one in the apn xml what exactly am I supposed to do?

Delete user_viable=false Ok I understand that, but where exactly is that supposed to be? Under my carrier? If so, I'm using solid file explorer, so I searched the words user_viable= false and thru out the entire XML file there are only 4 instances of user_viable= false and they are all under Verizon apns. So I'm not sure what's up with this, because it's definitely not under the TMobile apns.

And then you said NOT to delete read_only=true? Ok I understand that , but again, is that supposed to be under my carrier right?

So basically, when I find the correct apn in the xml, user_ viable = false should listed, and I'm supposed to delete that, then save and change permissions to 0644 and reboot? Then after reboot go into settings/access points and reset apn.

Is that right? If it is, good

Now I have to figure out how to find the right apn in the apnxml file.

Sorry for all this trouble.

kinda but make a copy of apn xml to internal or sd can't modify while system is using it use mt manager app I have English version if needed it lets you jump to line you need and backs it up but after you copied XML you can modify it I've put xml back in system with twrp fixed permission 0644 rebooted and fixed permission my file explorer check ownership make sure it's root you then can reset apn in settings and what you set works, on pcweb user_editable false I think works best (like mms you can see but not edit system will use if it's there) if you need my manager English I'll send if you tell me apn and oos version I'll make you one if you're having issue I always like to help when I can
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
that's how I moved and ownership with my manager and I use project fi apn because I decompiled my framework config_respects hold carrier config to false and config dont prefer son to true you can use gravity box to do that that's not needed I've changed a lot mtu 1500 I helped build a few ROMs so not a noob lol
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
I appreciate your time and you trying to help.

I'm still lost though. Sorry

I'm on the OnePlus 7 pro, On Tmoble

Ok I'll make a copy of the apn xml and place it on sd card, so then I'm able to edit it. But what exactly am I looking for?

I'm on TMobile, the name of my apn applied under Settings-WiFi & Internet-Mobile Data- Access Point Names is TMobile LTE, so when I open the xml find in a root explorer, am I looking for the entry named TMobile LTE, right? Once I find that, you said to delete the line user_viable=false, but there is no such line, and there also isn't a DUN entry.

Please try to direct me step by step if possible, considering my exact situation stated above.

Thank you very much ecompton
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Here are screenshots of the xml entry that I think is the correct one, and the 2nd screenshots are of my apn in settings.

Do you see anything here that is correct or incorrect?

You see how there is no user_viable=false or no dun entry.

You see the apn entry in the xml file doesn't match the apn in settings? Should they match? Or no?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] maddler:
If you don't want to root, there's another way.

Go to your APN settings and set "MVNO type" to "GID" and "MVNO value" to "FF", save and go back, other operator specific APNs will be gone.

You won't be able to create (or add) DUN configurations but that would also cause the "default" APN to be used instead of your operator's DUN configuratoin.

Enjoy!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Thanks for the reply.

To Bo clear, I'm already rooted.

But I still tried what you said, after I hit save, and go back like you said, nothing changed, the same apn with all the same settings that was applied b4 is selected.

Is that is what's supposed to happen?

Thank you

What theme u using?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
if you add gid it wrong after you do turn on airplane mode that's wrong seen and talked to guy who made post check apn settings trust me I did this you can use other apps offline sim database app with airplane mode copy it with dun in place and it works because framework.res.apk has privileged on writing those to write it in but you have to make it system app. just add user_visible="true" to apn reboot then reset apn in apn setting I'll show you with your apn can't test because I'm 310260 (imsi 310260x97) those numbers need to match xml I'll put the tether one to add too I know this is way to make it work see my apn in pic I know this stuff other pics are your apn

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] maddler:
Yes, just some providers (i.e. Vodafone) would be having another APN, with type=dun, that would be used while tethering in order to apply a different billing.

After the change only the "main" APN would be kept (at least that's whayt I've seen).

Thank you so much for trying to help me, appreciate it alot.

However, I'm having heck of a time following you, and I'm honestly pretty tech savvy.

I mean no disrespect at all. Please know that. It's just hard for me to understand you.

I did do your manager, thank you for that. Because with solid explorer, I wasn't able to edit the apn xml file, and with your manager, I was able to. So thank you.

Ok, let me ask you this. You mentioned you are 310 260, and you directed to 232 03 in the xml file. But I'm also 310 260. So shouldn't I be looking for the 310 260 in the xml file?

Edit: I think I follow with how to edit the xml, you want me to add the 'tmobile tethering' entry to xml, with the exact lines underneath shown in the pic, save then copy to system- etc and set the permissions. I did this ( I think I did it right) and nothing happened. Could it be because I'm 310 260 and not 232 03?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
See ?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
your post #8 that was mmc you had highlighted lol so I thought I'd help yes do your carrier mcc mnc I can just put mine on here you just copy it to /system/etc change permission 0644 and below the permission change owner it will be sd_card because that's where it came from I can just give you mine if your plmn is 310260 T-Mobile I'll have it in 10 min here
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
So sorry for the confusion in post #8, at that current time, I didn't realize the mcc mcn had to match. I just assumed those were the correct entries. My bad.

Take your time, thank you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
I just added those you won't have project fi one I do a lot to get that one easy after you fix it may reboot a time or two I suggest have airplane mode on when you copy over here's screenshot of you move with file manager don't forget to change etc back to read only I put in op
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Thank you, gonna download this file and then try to copy to system/etc, set permissions, and reboot. Then I'll test to see if it's being reported as hotspot data.

Thank you for all the effort.

---------- Post added at 07:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 PM ----------

One more question, in the 3rd screen shot, dun isn't listed under apn type, what I thought is dun would be added to apn type after this is applied? Or am I incorrect?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
T-Mobile GPRS/EDGE network settings when using a device as a GPRS "modem", that is, when "tethered" to another device. Examples include connection via Dial Up Networking (DUN) Bluetooth profile, or via Universal Serial Bus (USB) . And like the mms sos apns if you had to choose them they wouldn't work right read only long as it's on you list not hidden you'll use it VoiceStream was T-Mobiles they and idsn is for terminals they work good
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Well ok , I downloaded your xml file ( thank you btw )

and I successfully copied to system>etc, making that the current apn xml file. Made sure permissions were correct, saved and rebooted.

And unfortunately, didn't see any change in settings apn

Did a test and it was still being reported as hotspot data :(
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
As you can see below, those are the only 2 I have listed after using your xml file

I can add one with the + but as you know, when trying to add anything with dun, it won't let me.

How can I get what you have in your screen shots? You were somehow able to add dun and it be uneditable. By me using your xml file, was I supposed to have exactly what you have in settings>access point names?

Am I missing something I should have done? Or do you think I should just have up?

This is so frustrating. It's gotta be bugging you. Dude I'm really really trying, I'm sorry man, i thank you for the effort.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
no you're not bugging me at all dont mind helping reset your apn with the apn menu the will come up this enables dun and should bypass the speed throttling on the hotspot once apn is in place it works ive pluged in to pc usb tethered i was get 128kb lol now its way faster if resetting doesn't work and you have the owner and group set to root and permission set 0644 all checked on read owner is only one checked on write the rest should be blank
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:

it resets when you change xml or wipe dalvk other little things i do the one to keep 4g/3g only cbrs is CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio System) uses TD-LTE to provide a wireless voice and data service at 3.5GHz (3550MHz to 3700MHz). The radio interface is exactly the same as for LTE at other frequencies, supporting voice, text and data services with seamless mobility. This frequency allocation spans existing LTE Band 42 (3400MHz to 3600MHz) and LTE Band 43 (3600 to 3800 MHz) i also enabled rdnis and pan (Bluetooth tether) to apn

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
Never a problem every update you have changes to apn xml that's why a magisk mod wouldn't work or if do if there's any way I can help just ask I'll update apn-configs.xml every update go to system etc apnconfig.xml change mtu 1500 will 3x speed and gravity box q beta4 works you can use that to mod framework
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] luckylui:
I have to change the MTU, unless you did it with your apn that was provided..

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
It's in op the file you need is /system/etc/apns-conf.xml make copy to internal I say make 2 copy's in case one messes up you open xml find your carrier mcc mnc and change the user editable line and user visable line go-to twrp mount system then twrp file manager find your xml long press it and select copy then go /system/system/etc paste yes 2 systems in twrp I find twrp the easiest way it keeps ownership of file and file isn't in use
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Is the most recent XML file you uploaded, is that for only 10.0.1 or can it also be used for 10.0, I'm on 10.0 not 10.0.1, just wanted to be sure. I sent you a pm a few days addressing this issue.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ecompton59:
i changed op when i updated for 10.0.1 1/system/product/etc/apns-conf.xml is where it goes the one in system/etc only is for ia the cbrs is in framework
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sheetzie03:
Ok. I see.

So if I'm on 10.0( I see no reason to update to 10.0.1 as it was targeted for regular OP7 users and 0P7 Pro users who were still on Pie)

So me being on 10.0 can I use any of the XML files you uploaded?

Edit: ok from the pm you just sent, I think you are.saying I can still using the XML file in the OP for 10.0.

I just have to instead place it system/product/etc/apnconfxml.

I think that is what you are saying. Thank you!!

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Aolelon:
Do my apns need to be unlocked like yours? Will them being greyed out, and not being able to choose which apn, allow it to still give me unthrottled data and hotspot?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MetroWestMA:
Hi Everyone,

T-Mobile (and others) will still eventually find out you are tethering with this method and then they will monitor you more closely and look at TTL and User Agents and even destination addresses (like Apple's OS/X update servers that could never come from a phone) and start getting you that way.

There are some things you can do however...

If you are not rooted:

Easy Tether Pro works on rooted or unrooted phones and accomplishes the same things using a cable. You cannot set TTL without root, but you can set it on your connected router or laptop to solve that issue (you can Google this).

If you are rooted:

This mod is good, but add Change TTL and set it to run at startup to force the TTL for all packets leaving your phone to 64.

Instead of this mod, you can also install VPN Hotspot, a great Open Source root tool that lets you route all tethering traffic directly over your phone's standard connection and APN or over a VPN (including NetGuard, which can be configured to do nothing, or block and inspect packets).

I would make sure you at least deal with the TTL issue, because once they catch you they will start monitoring you more closely...

Also, it's worth mentioning that once you go over your limit and they start throttling you, they have a much harder time doing it if you are using this mod or any mod to route traffic over the normal APN :)

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] mattvail692:
I think I found the solution you must be rooted and download TTL Master in the play store and change TTL setting to 63 so far I have had very good luck with it so far I have been pulling 75 Mbps down on my laptop and Smart TV no problems also it is showing on my T-Mobile account that I am using my mobile data not my hotspot data

I just had to say thanks, I used a app called APN list, and you can copy and paste from the app to APN settings. I added a APN config from the apn.xml from OP, and now I can send and receive MMS, it's been years since the stock messages app did that. I tried a couple, and one of them fixed the problem.

Also, I've been tethering like a beast. I would use my 10GB, in one day. On data, I'm almost at 75GB, but hotspot registers 1.5GB used.
