If you have no data and your internet doesn’t work unless you connect to WiFi you likely need to update your Metro by T-Mobile APN settings.
Before switching to one of the settings listed here, I recommend that you delete all the other non-working APNs on your phone or device by following the directions below. After applying the new settings, be sure to save it, and then select it for use. If you still find they don’t work, try rebooting your phone. If you still don’t have success, leave a comment so the issue can be looked into. If you find you have APN settings that work or ones that are different than those listed here, feel free to share them in the comments section below or send an email so that the database can be updated. If you need to send an email for any other reason, please list what phone you are using and which carrier/MVNO that you are having trouble getting your APN to work with.
Please note: It is very IMPORTANT that you follow all the formatting shown.
If you see something capitalized, then capitalize it. If you see a comma, use a comma, if there are no spaces between the comma and other words, then don’t make spaces between them. If you don’t follow these rules, your APN profiles will not work properly, and your internet and/or MMS picture messaging will continue to not work.
To configure your APNs and delete your old ones you’ll first have to find where the settings are located in your phone. Below are a couple of general guides that you can use to find them on Androids and iPhones. If you already know how to access them, just skip over the section and scroll further below to the actual settings themselves.
How To Change Your Device APNs To Metro by T-Mobile
iPhones
APN settings on the iPhone can be difficult to change because in many cases Apple blocks full access to the settings unless you jailbreak and thus hack the phone.
For those of you who do have access to the settings they can be found by going to either:
- Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Cellular Network
OR
- Settings > Mobile Data > Mobile Data Options > Mobile Data Network.
Once there you can either tap to reset settings to default or manually edit them. Alternatively, you can also check for automatic APN configuration by using a carrier profile. You can do this by going to settings” followed by “general” and then “about.” If a carrier profile update is available you’ll see a notification for it there. If you have to add custom APNs to your iOS device, be aware that anytime you update iOS, Apple will reset the APN settings back to what they were before you put your custom ones in. So you will have to edit them all over again.
APN Update Guide For Android Phones And Devices
If you have an Android device, getting to the settings will vary a bit based on your device’s manufacturer and Android version. I currently have a Google Pixel 7, and to get to my APN settings I must go to “settings” then “Network & Internet” followed by “Internet” and then click on the gear icon next to my carrier’s name. Then I scroll down and click on “Access Point Names.”
Alternatively, I can just go to my phone’s settings, use the search bar, and type in “Access Point Names” to be taken to the right place. In general, you can access your APN settings by going to “settings” then clicking on “wireless networks” or “network & internet” then “mobile network,” and finally “Access Point Names.”
You can delete whatever settings are already in your phone or device before you attempt to add one of the new ones shown below. Deleting your existing APNs require you to first click on the actual APN itself, then click on the 3 dot menu, then click on delete. Sometimes it will not be possible to delete them. All you will be able to do is add new APNs to your existing ones or reset the ones that are already there. To reset your APNs, do not click on the actual APN settings, but rather click on the 3 dot menu and click “reset to default.” To add new APNs like the ones shown below, you should see either a + sign next to the 3 dot menu or the word “ADD” depending on your device. Clicking on that will allow you to add new APNS. Once your are done adding all the appropriate settings, you’ll have to click on the 3 dot menu again and then “save” to store them in your phone.
Below are tables of different APNs. You DO NOT need to add all the different tables of APNs to your device. You only need to add one. Once you have one that is working, stop. Do not try adding others. In general, the tables are listed in the order of which ones you should try first.

If you tried the above and nothing at all works for you, your phone shows no signal and you still can’t place calls, send texts and use data, your phone is either not compatible with the Metro By T-Mobile network or you have a bad SIM card and should request a new one from Metro By T-Mobile.
If you can use some parts of the phone like make calls and send texts but can not connect to the internet or send MMS your SIM card is fine but your phone may not be compatible with the network. It may also be that you still haven’t found a working APN for your device. You should also double check your APN settings and make sure you haven’t accidentally added a space, or comma to a setting when there shouldn’t be any.
Its been almost a month where this showed up on my cell phone w metro pcs

Hello there i just have a problem that my internet is going slow and sometimes it goes down i don’t have internet access and I can’t even make a call and i went to a MetroPCS store and they say it is because i bought my phone in bestbuy and my phone is not from their company and I want to know if someone know how to fix my problen with my internet. Please and thanks!
Hello everybody! I just spent a week trying to figure out Samsung A7. I bout one for my wife, Gold one. We switched her MetroPCS to this one, everything worked perfect! So I ordered one for my self, but got Black one, bit cheaper. When we switched that one… internet was at 2G the most!!! I need my 4G! So that how I found this discussion, but anything I’ve tryed-didn’t work. Then I looked closer at numbers. My wife’s phone is SM-A750G/DS, my was SM-A750FN/DS, so she’s got G and I got FN. Found on Google the diference, G and GH models have twice the number of 4G bands then FN model. I ordered Blue one, GH model, and sure enough, as soon as they(MetroPCS guys) switched me to the new phone, it showed 4G signal! And it works perfect! I hope this will help someone who need’s it!
Any info for an Unlocked Umidigi phone bought off Amazon? Only thing that does not work is wifi calling or messaging. I have tried all apn. Not even sure if the apn settings are wrong for wifi calling. Yes its enabled.
I have a very interesting case. Everything on my Note 4 on Metro by T-Mobile (formerly metropcs) works perfectly, except for outgoing sms ONLY. I have tried dozens of configurations. It is even a T-mobile phone.
The funny thing is that I can send SMS to myself, and they come through fine, and other people’s texts seem to be coming in. It just does not send outgoing texts.
My phone is not working completely, i have the fast.metropcs.com as an apn,also have Name :EPDG MMS/XCAP APN :tmus .can you tell me anything that will fix my phone?it still doesn’t work and I have been without a communication all day.I have alot of business to attend and it’s hard to find time to just go visit a location for an metropcs store.
I have a Huawei honor 8x everything works fine but the Internet is slow it stays on E network which is 2g. I tried all of the settings and it still doesn’t upgrade to 4g
Hello there. I have a Galaxy S7 Edge. I have tried all of the APN settings. My phone works fine, able to send texts, recv text, receive pictures. I can not sent any pictures/videos or group texts. This was a Verizon phone. Any help would be so appreciated. All worked great until I switched to MetroPCS. Also which network Mode should I be on? Global, LTE/CDMA, or LTE/GSM/UMTS?
hi i have a metropcs service i bought t-mobile note8 but i have bad service i dont recive sometime calls
I was not able to see what MVNO Value supposed to be on my Metro Acatel Android?
Hi. I have a verizon note 4. My carrier is metropcs. My issue is that i dont get good service at all! I always( not literally always, but enough to the point where its caused me to reach out for help. Hence, this post) have no signal and the phone switches to global mode. I get every feature, picture sms, sms , data , cell service. It just always loses service. Can someone help me, please? Or is it the phone ? Any advice would be really appreciated. Thanku in advance for ur time and mobile wisdom.
What are the differences between the alternate settings? Also, why do some sites say that the MNC should be 16, is there a difference?
I have Metro and just got a Galaxy S9 and have tried all these settings and still no service or anything.
i just bought a verizon galaxy s5 and used my metro pcs sim in the new phone. my internet and calls work but my mms and group texting wont
yes the reason I was asking about the https:// opposed to the https is because I was just watching reading an article about hackers and there was saying not to use any URLs without the HTTPS I don’t know if that’s the same for these APN settings you know cuz I’ve changed my APN settings many times but it’s always been a https:// I was just trying to clear that up
I have a Google Nexus 6 I bought unlocked from eBay that I had my number switched to. When I am at home I have almost no service but I have great wifi, however I cannot send or receive messages or make or receive calls, bit I can use data. Is this my apn? Thanks
Thank u I’ve been searching for a few days now for the right son setting for my new phone nd nothing until now! just want to thank u for alternate setting 3 it worked nd I’m one happy camper!
Hey, All,
After having a mini-stoke (not really) after dealing with MetroPCS “customer service”, I’ve turned to peer support for assistance.
I have had a samsung s5 on the MetroPCS network for several years, and recently, my texts have been giving me intermittent issues, but only when trying to send while on wifi. I can receive everything while on wifi, and most times I’m able to send while on wifi, but recently the texts wont go through, whether it’s just a SMS text, or a MMS.
So, today I upgraded to an unlocked S9+, and the texts would not go through at all while on wifi. The went through just fine when wifi was turned off, but this is a pain and these phones should be smart enough to switch between the two I would imagine.
I changed the APN type from:
default,supl,mms.xcap to default.mms.supl
This has made the texts go through, but not 100%. Sometimes, I still have to turn the wifi off, and then back on for the texts to go through.
What could it be?? A setting with my wifi causing troubles? I haven’t had a chance to test it on another network yet to see if it is a wifi issue specific to my network. Could it be the wrong APN type?
Appreciate any input in advance!!
using an unlocked htc m8 and none of these settings seem to work on it properly. i dont have internet or mms usage. calls and sms only seem to be working properly
I have a new Huawei Mate SE I purchased thru amazon. This phone’s bands are compatible with Metro. I was already a Metro customer and took the phone to a Metro store (two weeks ago) to switch over service from my Galaxy S5. The employee entered the following codes:
APN name: MetroPCS Data
APN: fast.metropcs.com
MMSC: https://metropcs.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,hipri
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming: IPv4
MVNO type: None
MVNO value: Not set
I had been regularly sending group texts and sending photos, no problem. Data and calls were working as normal. ALL was working fine for the past two weeks I’ve been using the phone until today. I started getting notifications from Textra that MMS was not working and to check APN settings. I tried the native messenger app and Google messages and still MMS is not working, sending or receiving. SMS is working fine. Data and calls still work fine.
So what changed? I didn’t do any changes to any settings anywhere. Before I do any of the above, please look over the codes I’ve listed and can you please give your opinion on what went wrong all of a sudden. Could it have anything to do with Metro’s rebranding with T-Mobile? Is it the codes the employee entered? Is it my phone? Gremlins? Thank you in advance.
i have a note 8. i had to use the 3rd alternate snd put GID now.. PERFECTION!!!!
Thank You! Same as Amir, I got no where with the MetroPCS store. Thanks to your APN settings, I now have Internet and MMS texts.
Thank you for this info. After an hour and a half with dealer support from Metro- I got NOWHERE with my Note 9 from Verizon. I had mms working but NO internet. Thanks to your 3rd alternate settings the internet works! So I promptly hung up on them as they were pretty confused. (Not to knock them so bad- I worked for them for 10 years. Their level 3 support is excellent but you have to call the consumer side and get through a lot of BS before you get them. The dealer tech support leaves quite a bit to be desired)
The problem now is I have Data, but NO MMS. Any thoughts??
It won’t let ued the sever
ok….here is my issue. i have a tmobile branded alcatel idol 4s that cannot receive mms ( pics or vid ). my carrier is metropcs i can receive txt msg. tried all the apn settings with no luck. spend 2 days at metro store. swapped my sims from a lumina 640 to the idol 4s.everything else works except receiving pics/vids with txt msg……sim setting tells me that im useing LTE, IMS is unregistered, Internet APN is activated but my MMS APN is applied……..open to ANY suggestions….thanks
Thanks worked on my S6 edge
FYI alternate settings 3 was the combination I needed for a tmobile note 8 to completely work properly on metropcs. Other settings would allow either mms to work, or mobile hotspot to work but not both.
atempted with Droid turbo 2, did not work
Best 4gLTE settings on a xfinity mobile phone (Network unlocked) using Metro pcs for service.. And eep in mind it does work it….. just stays on edge or 3g but never gets 4g LTE..what do I do to fix and make faster and newer apns for 4g LTE service? Please help.
I too just bought an unlocked AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 and am having trouble with my messages. I use Metro PCS as my carrier. It will not download messages from some people ( I am pretty sure they all have Iphones). I usually mesage them telling them I can’t download their message and they resend it to me and it works then. Then we will be texting back and forth and all of a sudden their messages will stop downloading again. So frustrating. I have entered all the APN’s above with no change, then I messaged my phone and it wouldn’t download saying ” Unable to send message-Message Blocking is active. I then looked into message blocking and call blocking and it says “0” blocking. Hope you can help !! Everything else on the phone works great, internet, emails, etc.
I just bought a unlocked att Samsung Galaxy S7 active and I can’t get it to work on my metro PCS sim card

I have a galaxy s5 from Verizon that I added the appropriate apn settings and the phone will work for 2 minutes then it will lose service and not receive any mobile data. What is the solution? I used all the settings for the apn and none of them worked. Can it be a phone issue?
What about the new aristo 2? What would be the proper settings? Thank you
I have an verzion J v7 im trying to bring over and i dont knkw if it will work any ideas?

Heyy hoping you are available for response I’m trying to change from old old Samsung smartphone to a Verizon wireless Samsung j3 with metro pcs service. I tried the basic apn settings that Google brought up but that’s it and I got no service come through. Figured I’d ask you first before I go trying ten different settings. Any idea if I’m able to do this or what settings will be best? Again trying to use MetroPCS service with Verizon Samsung j3 phone. Thanks a ton!
Hello,
I am trying to get the APN to a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900T (T-Mobile Unlocked) but none of the APNs you listed worked. I am trying with these APN settings from a MetroPCS Moto E (Apr 21, 2018) but still no success.

HELP!! I have all of the APN info to fill in, but everything except APN is greyed out. It will not allow me to select it to type in info on my s7. Tech support is useless. They did the Sim swap online and only my text messages are working. No calls or data. Had the same problem in store. Won’t allow me to fill in APN name or anything else.
I bought unlocked S7 on ebay and connected it to MetroPCS. I don’t have the Hotspot icon in the settings (not just in the quick settings) and I’m getting Hands Free Activation saying that the activation wasn’t completed. The guy at Metro store is no help. How do I get the hotspot to show up?
i have a note 5 unlocked from sprint, using it on metropcs and my pic messaging is not working apns are correct still nothing….. can you help?
My internet Wi-Fi works great! but my calling and texting phone Wi-Fi works only 1/4 the time, don’t know what to do I have tried many of the APN settings. It usually tells me that the 911 address is a Error but I updated that how many times and it doesn’t seem to make a difference or it’s says “DNS Error”. Has anyone else have this problem or know what to do? I’ve called MetroPCS and they told me it’s on the Internet side to contact the internet and my internet company said it’s not on their side since my Wi-Fi internet works perfectly on my phone.
thank you so much! been losing my mind over this and metro was no help of course. I used the second to last option and it now works perfectly. Thanks again!

I have a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 that is unlocked and was using it on Metro PCS for a couple of weeks just fine. I got an OTA update to update to Marshmallow and went ahead and did the update. I woke up the next morning and had no service because my phone won’t register on any network. I’ve done troubleshooting with both Metro PCS and Samsung and still nothing. I’ve even done a hard reset and have wiped the cache partition and still nothing. Now a friend of mine is going through the same thing with his S5. Any suggestions? I’d really like to use my phone again!

My iPhone 5 doesn’t have the apn setting any idea what I do now ?
I tried these settings on my unlocked iPhone 6s and I still can’t send picture messages to android phones . I also can’t do group chat with android
I use old school flip phones and Nokia 2G/3G feature phones. I’d like to see the APN details for phones that are not Android nor iPhones.
