This past week, I noticed in my mobile data settings and APN settings that Mint Mobile service has full access point to T-MObile LTE US. The same T-Mobile APN settings now works with Mint Mobile. I even ran speed tests and notice the difference in the data speeds and connection. Below is the step by step APN setup you should be on for Mint Mobile under T-Mobile network. If there are any issues and concerns please leave a comment and also check out the video below.
APN Settings for Mint Mobile:
Tap on Phone Settings.
Tap on Connections.
Tap on Mobile Networks tab.
Select Access Point Name tab.
Tap on ADD button.
Insert Name: T-Mobile US LTE
Insert APN Name: fast.t-mobile.com
Leave Proxy empty

Tap on SAVE and select this new APN as your Access Point.
And this how you change the APN settings for your Mint Mobile service.
So you just ran out high speed data and you dont have any WiFi? What can you do? Well in the video below I explained that most of your apps can work offline with you or be used on 2G Edge and 3G data connections. There are also cool gadgets that will give you TV for free without internet. Clearstream TV stick and the app you download or install to your Android or iOS device will give you live TV. Another app and gadget will give you free live HDTV is called Magic TV. There is app to download for free but you will need the gadget for it to work offline. You can find Magic TV on eBay for as much as $5. Another cool option or gadget to buy online is called Wireless Sandisk Connect. This will allow you to view photos music and movie files offline with the wireless flash drive stick. The USB flash drive size comes in 16GB, 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and 200GB of storage. Now the Sandisk company doesnt produce these products anymore. And there are a lot of sellers on Amazon and eBay with very high prices for these wireless sticks. So if you truly want one be careful of the seller you buy it from. Next up, well, this shouldnt be surprising now but your FM radio app will work without high speed data or wifi. Just use your headphones or bluetooth headsets and rock to your music and podcasts and favorite radio shows. Most phones on Android are bloated with free games from the phone companies and well, those apps dont need high speed data or WiFi either. Its easy to just check and see what apps will work and see the ones that dont. There we have it. You will make it through another day week and maybe month knowing you can make it with data you use or dont use. So what apps have you come across that works offline?
Visible Wireless is a Verizon Wireless Cellular company. They piggy back off Verizon Wireless towers for cell service. They do everything through their applications on Android and iOS. You can get cell service from them just by downloading their apps. The one key thing you must remember is that your smart phone must work on Verizon network. So if your device doesn't have the bands to connect to Verizon this service isn't going to work for you. The normal price of this service is $40/monthly. No taxes and no fees included. 1 line only. Visible has this feature for groups called the Visible Party. This is when you invite 3 more people to join your group and for each person you save $5/month per person. So you end up saving $15 a month and makes the total of your phone bill now and down onto $25 a month. Now how cool is that! Well, wait! Before Visible had ended their referral program, you could get up $200 in credit for your phone bill! They then would deduct this from your monthly plan and whatever you owed after the deduction of credits thats what you would end up paying. So, in my case, I only paid up $5 a month. Im on a Visible Party and I have bill credits. Wait... There's more! You also could end up earning up to $200 in virtual master card depending upon the mobile device you buying from Visible, you could score and use that money to go towards your mobile data bill and wouldn't have to worry about a phone bill up to 1 year! So this is how I was able to cut my cell phone bill down to $5 a month on Visible Wireless.
