Is the s6 your 1st gsm device? Root isn't required to change APN. Is this a metro branded s6?

Activation of a new phone should be free when it is completed online or over the phone.

The OnePlus X US version has the correct bands for MetroPCS, yes.
The European version doesn't have the right bands, maybe that's why you've seen conflicting info?

Can you tell me what Bands are needed for full service MPCS w/Lte, and
Bands that US OnePlus X have?
Thought we needed 1700/2100
Thankyou

From the first post in this thread:
GSM- 1900MHz
HSPA- 1700/2100MHz or 1900MHZ. 1700/2100 has the larger coverage area at this point. But all further HSPA expansion is in 1900.
LTE- (AWS)1700/2100MHz
B2 = Band 2 = 1.9GHZ = 1900MHz = PCS
B4 = Band 4 = 1.7/2.1GHz = 1700/2100MHz = AWS.
Later in the year of 2014 they will start using PCS and 700MHz B12 for LTE
OnePlus X has:
GSM - 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
HSDPA - 850 / 900 / 1700(AWS) / 1900 / 2100
LTE - 1(2100), 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900)
