Hi, there is a small typo in the side text for option #2 4:22 - should be fast.metropcs.com (without the "t-" as shown on the phone. Let me know if you have any troble setting them up!

[ReidWinchester]

this isn't working for me. Your option 2 was the info I was already using, so I tried following the directions for option 1, but neither of these is allowing me to send photos from my phone.

I just bought a ulefone 7e and i put my metro pcs sims card in and went through the steps and im still unable to connect to metro

[fleamuf]

Neither worked for me. I have a Samsung S21 with Metro-tmobile service. I can only make calls when I get service which is rarely. I can not receive calls at all. I was told by metro I don’t have 5g service in my area. Well, let’s say I don’t. Shouldn’t I still connect to 4g? Please tell me what I need to do.
