Turns out the SIM slot was carrier locked even though the imei was showing clean.

I followed this thread to unlock:

Phone now detects the carrier.

Create new APN don't edit it or anything just create it and save. Then go back and add details. Might help might not.

And the T-mobile version is the better choice for NA users and is fully functional dual sim once you buy the tray

I managed to acquire a T-mobile version that only has the SIM 1 currently available. I just ordered a 2 sim tray. My hope is that the internals are still dual SIM and that the tray was the only blocker on the T-mobile variant. Hope to have an update later this week or early next.

I'm still open to learning how to help fix this APN issue on SIM 1. Until then I'll be using a Nexus 5 as a daily driver.

It would be easier to explain how to 'terminal this' in the ubports us carrier problems forum.

In short, you need a new ofono build that isn't in dev or stable yet

What do you mean by tabbing through each setting? And i've already tried about 30 times to input APN settings using GUI. Is there a way I can "terminal" these settings into existence?

Try turning to airplane mode, and then try to manually create the APN. May take a couple of tries.
