Cingular 8125 on AT&T

Can someone point me in the right direction I've doen numerous searchs and talked to tech support (useless) . I have a 8125 that I picked up, although I am a AT&T sim card user (our company hasn't upgraded yet) so I unlocked the phone and it works great. although I can not access mmode or anything email or Internet related unless using wifi.
Can someone point me in the right direction for some instructions on how to get this thing set up to work with the legacy AT&T wireless system?

You need to manually enter the AT&T GPRS and MMS settings.
Call up AT&T and ask for the necessary information. They'll give it to you.

PM me you're email address I have the cab file that I can send to you.

Well they don't exist anymore and the guys at Cingular could only get me so far. that's why I'm looking around for it.
Mark, you have a PM, thanks in advance

Cab file didnt work Mark. Only change it made was resetting my today backround to the default. all the settings are still the same.
is there a list of settings or a walk through for setting it up manually somewhere?

It should have worked.
Here is what I have:
MMS Configuration

AT-T MMSC
10.250.250.100
9201
http://mymsc.mymmode.com
My Work Network

This network connects to the internet
This network uses a proxy server
WAP 10.250.250.250 9201
Secure WAP 10.250.250.250 9203
Hope this makes sense.

Another option is to go to the Cingular web page and choose Support, Phone/Device Support.
Select the following:
Network: former AT&T Wireless"
Manufacturer: Siemens
Model: SX66
Use the information in Device Setup to configure the browser/internet and MMS settings. It won't match exactly because the SX66 is a 2003 device, but you should be able to figure it out.

these settings are readily available on the internet.
If anyone gets charged any fees for using this dont complain to me. this is not exactly the best setup but it does work. all it is is the tzones proxy work around with a step or 2 added nothing that hasnt been posted before. but still its not my info i'm just passing it along.
In Settings/Connections/GPRS/T-Mobile Data:

[Q] Accidentally Deleted My APN without backing it up! Help?

I've been trying for weeks to get MMS working, to no avail, and now I seem to have deleted my Cricket APN without backing up first, so I can't get any wifi. Can someone post or point me to, a working cricket APN, I'm using a VZ Droid Eris, if that matters, I don't think it does, but it's obviously only 1/2 flashed to Cricket. I appreciate any help that can be offered, as Cricket's 1G service sucks really bad so I'd rather be on wifi.

read this, might help you
Its pretty straight forward, but I have recently received a bunch of mesages from people asking me how to set up a data connection for cricKet on Android, so here are the steps.
Settings>Wireless Controls>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names>
From there select the default APN probably simply titled Android
From here we plug in the settings that we would with Windows Mobile:
Name: Cricket (Doesn't Matter, More for Labeling Purposes)
APN: Cricket Mobile Web (Doesn't Matter, More for Labeling Purposes)
Proxy: wap.mycricket.com
Port: 8080
Username:[email protected]
Password: cricket
MCC: 310 (This is the default value)
I would assume you would make the following change for cricKet, as you would in the PST settings, but when I save, the APN deletes itself. Please test on your end. Data WILL work if you leave setting at default. I just think this could be the one setting preventing us from authenticating with google.
MNC: 00 (Default Value is 995)
Everything else I left as is. This will get data running but WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO ACTIVATE YOUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT. This has to do with the proxy (I think). If you know a way around it, or further settings to change please make me aware so I can update.
Menu>Save
Then stop and restart the modem.
At this point you should have an active data connection. If it doesn't work RIGHT after the stop/start of the modem, give it about a minute.

At this point, i have apn b&r, and an apn, i just cant get it a folder created that apn b&r will accept and restore from.

Simple Mobile APN help with Focus

So I ported over my number from AT&T to Simplemobile for the 40 dollar monthly unlimited everything plan. I have everything working except data. I keep trying to change the APN but it's not working. Does anybody know exactly what settings I need to get data to work on the Samsung Focus? My phone is unlocked by the way. Thanks!

What exactly have you tried so far?

Thanks for the reply! Well I've tried using the Samsung Network Profile app, tried changing the APN by naming the APN "simple." I've also tried using the names simplemobile, Simple Mobile, but anyways its not working. Supposedly simple is supposed to work for the HD7, but it's not working for the focus

I wonder...
Do this: delete all APN you have manually entered.
Change the radio to World instead of North America in Settings/Applications/radio
Then, switch the profile to AT&T from Network profile, reset, then switch back to Simplemobile and reset again.
I hope this does the trick, if it doesn't you would need specific information from Simplemobile...

Type simple in both username and password. I figured it out by chance.

Thanks for the help, can you tell me exactly how you have your focus setup? I'm trying what you said and it isn't working. Do you have the samsung network app installed?

goto the APN settings..
under APN name use value " WWW" thats it.. save it.. restart the phone (if required).

So mine stopped working as well. I have an old Tmobile Dash and it works through that. I do have the Network profile installed as well as the Samsung tools. My focus is totally unlocked, but right now it makes no difference.

So, I deleted the APN and started from scratch. Network settings installed as well as Samsung tools with the 3G marker checked. Even though the 3G cannot work on Tmobile, when I enabled it and then typed in simple for APN, it works.
Hope this helps.

Please Help
Hey can you guys please explain how you got the data and MMS to work on your simple mobile unlocked Focus. I have the Network profile App, but cant find the Samsung tools app on the market place.
Also, what goes into the APN settings (Proxy server, username, etc)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

if in the us your apn (att) would be
APN = wap.cingular
USER NAME = [email protected]
PASSWORD = cingular1

I think that I have internet working on my Samsung Focus on Simple Mobile. I say 'think', because often when I try to open a website I am taken to the url androidapi.t-mobile.com/apppack/mvno.html which displays a 503 error. I tested just now by turning off wi-fi, trying to open a web page over and over again. I got this URL and 503 error a few times and then a web page finally loaded. It's not terribly useful, but it occasionally works - so I'm assuming this is more a problem with the connection than with the settings. Sometimes the cell indicator flips between an E and a G. I don't know what the G means, it's not documented that I could find.
I cannot get MMS to work, and based on my research and some others have said this too, it cannot be made to work. Samsung has an app called "Network Profile" that will change the MMS settings for the Focus, but there is no option for Simple Mobile. Until Samsung updates the app for Simple Mobile, we are out of luck.
The settings I use to get data/internet to work on my Focus are:
Under: Settings - Cellular
Data connection: On
Data roaming options: Don't Roam
Network selection: Automatic
Edit/Create APN
APN: simple
User name: [blank]
Password: [blank]
Proxy server/URL: 216.155.165.50
Proxy port: 8080

Windows Phone 7 & Simple Mobile & Internet
The thing I think that is left out of most of the instructions is to go to the secret menu by going to the dialer and entering ##634# and then go to MMS and change the apn there to simple.
Now my Dell Venue Pro is on Simple Mobile and the Internet finally works!

How did you change you MMS settings in diagnostic mode? I can only see the code but cannot find a code to edit the mms or data settings.

I am still stuck even after adding simple apn

The reason most people leave that step out is because it is not a step they can follow. The original question was about the Focus, and the Focus doesn't let users specify the MMS settings. From what I've read, only the Dell Venue Pro gives users direct access to the MMS settings. Which is why it's the only WP7 phone that Simple Mobile officially supports for MMS.
Samsung has a network app for the Focus that allows you to pick a carrier and then it changes the settings as appropriate. Unfortunately, it doesn't support many carriers.
I'm considering making the switch to TMobile prepaid - TMobile shows up in the nework app along with AT&T and so should be supported.
UPDATE: Switched to TMobile. Using the "Network Profile" app set to automatic network profile changing = On and Active Profile = T-Moile USA, I received MMS messages right away. Will do internet testing later. For 10 bucks less a month I would've preferred to stay with Simple Mobile, but since Microsoft / Samsung lock the MMS settings down & Samsung hasn't updated their Network Profile app to support more carriers, I had to make the switch. Glad at least the mms piece is working.

I was able to successfully use both 3G data AND send/receive MMS with the following settings:
APN: simple
MMS:
MMS APC: simple
MMSC: h77p://smpl.mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapeng (Replace sevens with "t"; new user controls...)
AUTH TYPE: None
All other fields are to be left blank.
As mentioned, these settings worked for me marvelously. ...For roughly ten minutes. Then the phone wouldn't wake up, I had to do a battery pull, and mms stopped working. When I go to check the mms settings in EM, it holds onto every value (including blank ones) save for the following:
MMS PORT: (blank)
AUTH TYPE: "None"
Whenever I select "Apply" to save settings, it always force resets those two values to the following:
MMS PORT: 80
AUTH TYPE: "PAP"
Hopefully this is all easy to understand. I've tried at length to search both xda and the world-wide-webz for an answer, but I'm coming up blank. I've always been able to figure this junk out for myself, but this is my first WP7 device, and I'm all kinds of 'tarded with it, haha.

You might want to enable the automatic sim settings. This setting is off by default due to samsung. I think the reason is to keep people on the same carrier that the phone was originally intended for use ie. samsung focus Att
1. Bring up diagnotics app ##634#
2. open diagnostics app located in your apps list (swipe left from start screen)
3. in the diagnostic app type 40*047#3
4. there will be a confimation prompt to confirm autosim detection
5. then the phone will restart and you should have MMS and cellular functionality and internet
This has helped my samsung focus from dropping in and out of my 3g connection...wonderful ...hope this works for you and confirm if it does work please.
I take no credit for this method and here is the original post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1241721

I got mine working without mms. Jailbroke the phone and followed the steps to enable internet connection sharing... that added samsung tools. I don't know what in the end made the difference but I was able to use network profile to tmobile and then add apn simple and it worked.
Since then I moved to straight talk .. att.mvno worked for them for apn but still no mms.

Possibly Free Facebook Data on T-Mobile???

Hi everyone, I've made a rather curious discovery. I have an OLD Nokia E71 which I have been using since my Galaxy S3's screen cracked. I am part of a family plan on T-Mobile, and am not supposed to have data enabled on my line. One day, I was messing around with the settings on my phone, out of boredom. I switched around the APN's a little, and opened the facebook app. To my shock, I found I was able to connect to Facebook WITHOUT a data plan, when I used the t-zones APN. I then delved into the phone settings to see if I could find out the specifications of the t-zones APN. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find much, but I've posted below the settings I could find. Now, the question is, would anyone be able to figure out how to use this on Android? Note: I tested some other apps using the t-zones APN, but none of them were able to access the internet. Only Facebook worked.

I want to try to duplicate these settings on Android, however, I have basically no knowledge on APNs whatsoever. Any help is appreciated! :laugh:

Could it be linked to this? http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/free-facebook-phone-users-without-data-plans/

I was wondering the same thing myself. However, I figured it out in early December, well before T-Mobile made its announcement.
