Hey I use MetroPCS and this affected me, here's the isntructions I used from Tony to workaround this and eventually get 3G working.
"
this broke after our first utopic landing for 14.10 which switched the provisioning db used to configure the phone from an ubuntu-source db to an android-based db. unfortunely, we failed to notice that t-mobile had upgraded all the apns to IPv6. ;(-
i believe an easy workaround is to modify your context so that it has "ip" instead of "ipv6".
i've attached an updated gprs settings file for you <jfunk has attached MetroPCS version to this defect for anyone else who needs>
adb into the phone and as root run this command:
# stop ofono
exit out of adb, and push the attached gprs file onto the phone:
% adb push gprs /var/lib/ofono/<IMSI>
where <IMSI> is your SubscriberIdentity. If you've only used one SIM card in the device, there should be only one directory in /var/lib/ofono ( note, ignore any of the directory with a -[1-9] suffix ).
if you're still unsure about SubscriberIdentity, you can find it by running the following command on the device, as root:
after pushing the new gprs settings file, reboot the device:
$ adb shell reboot
this should get you working internet.
either way, can you please add a comment to the bug if your provider is indeed t-mobile?
also, this may not give you working mms ( receive-only ). if you want to test, we may need to do some more manaul configuration, hopefully the ui to do all of this will be landing soon.
