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:

# /usr/share/ofono/scripts | grep SubscriberIdentity

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.
