I bought a S5 on Ebay unlocked to use with Cricket Carrier they use AT&T towers. The settings I use is
Name- Internet
Apn- ndo
Proxy
Port
Username
Password
Server
MMSC- http://mmsc.aiowireless.net
MMS PROXY- proxy.aiowireless.net
MMS PORT- 80
MSS- 310
MNC- 150
Auth type- not set
Apn type- default,mms,fota,hipri,supl

Please I need someone help, S5 is unlocked I'm getting H+ instead of 4G LTE it slow. I have the network operator on AT&T also along with LTE/GSM/UMTS. I don't know what else to do. Thanks for all your help.

That's your problem right there. You're using a Verizon device on a network that uses ATT towers. Verizon uses CDMA technology and ATT uses GSM.... they aren't compatible with one another, that's why you're experiencing these issues.
If you had an ATT S5 you'd be in good shape.

The network operator has AT&T and Verizon . It unlocked S5. Network mode has LTE/GSM/UMTS ......I set that for network.

Network mode has as follows

Global
LTE/CDMA
LTE/GSM/UMTS

Why would it have that for network settings

I understand that but it's still a Verizon model so you're going to continue having this spotty coverage regardless of whether it's working now or not.
