[Q] 2 APN's for mms and internet ?!?! - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

ok so i have been searching for days for a proper apn that works for both internet and mms. my dilema is i switched to the $10 unlimited internet plan, but i have to use internet2.voicestream.com. so that makes the internet work, but mms doesnt. Then i need to use epc.tmobile.com to get the mms to work, but as you guessed it, internet doesnt work. all the settings i've found around XDA give me the same results.
I did find one post that sed i have to create two separate APN's, one for each. So i did, but whatever is first on the list works, the other doesnt, and when i try to switch to the second one it doesn't change over. i've tried like 3 or 4 different android builds and always the same results.
Now i beg someone for a solution for how to get both working using internet2.voicestream.com (the only setting that lets me access internet). now someone save me from insanity! Thanks!
EDIT! IF YOU HAVE THE $10 INTERNET PLAN AND WANT INTERNET AND MMS WORKING AT SAME TIME, HERE ARE THE SETTINGS! ONLY TOOK ME ABOUT 10 HOURS OF TRIAL AND ERROR LOL

Would help to know what Android build you are using, because if it's a sense build, then the build is the problem.

Did you try?
APN:wap.voicestream.com
MMSC: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms

wap.voicestream.com with that mmsc was unsuccessful. i have tried a combination of different mmsc's with internet2.voicestream.com and nothing. i know that the internet2 apn is a must, its the settings that follow that i just can't figure out to work. i have worked with all builds to try to get this to work from the sense builds to the vanilla froyo for nexus 1 and same results always. only one of the two will work.

ok so here's as far as i've gotten so far. i have been able to send mms with these settings, and recieve the mms (but cannot download) all with keeping internet2.voicestream.com for the apn- meaning the internet is working. I'M SO CLOSE!!! now the only problem is that of course the mms can't download and also when i receive the mms i send myself, it comes from a totally different phone number.
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
Proxy: (leave this blank)
Port: (leave this blank)
Username: (leave this blank)
Password: (leave this blank)
Server: wap.voicestream.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50
MMS Port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: <not set>
it seems as though the server name wap.voicestream is critical. when i'd put in anything different like epc.tmobile, or internet2.voicestream, internet would still work but mms wouldn't send nor recieve. if someone can let me know what tweak is needed so that the recieved mms would download and it comes from me, i'd be happy as hell. btw i'm using the Mdeejay_FroYo_Sense_v._3.0a build.

SOLVED! see first post edited*

G1 MMS

I have a G1 with no data plan and the MMS does not work?

These are my settings. I just want someone to confirm that T-Mobile won't let you use these settings anymore. Does it still work?
I am fairly sure mms uses data so you answered your own question..

hmm.. I know you do on CDMA so it could be different on GSM then.. But then why isn't his MMS going through?
I do not know. All of other phones worked with MMS without a data plan like my iPhone 3G. I know a lot of people are having trouble with this like me from other websites.
remove the MMS Proxy and port.
It didn't seem to work. Are those your settings?
No, those MMS Settings were from my Nokia 6680 that didn't have a data plan.
but my G1 has a data plan and those are my settings:
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com

Password: none same here. the password is "none"

Sadly, it didn't work . Can anyone else share their settings?
this worked for me until i switched to cupcake, if that helps.
im lookin for a way to get mms's aswell!
Yes a lot of people are wanting mms for their G1. No one knows the settings though.
https://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm...ex=y&navtypeid=2&pagetypeid=2&prevPageIndex=6
I hope this works
yea i also wanna know how to get it to work without the data plan
Thanks for the link but it didn't do anything. We just have to wait until someone shares their working settings.
Bump bump bump
I can't seem to get it to work anymore either..
Has anyone come across settings that avtually work yet?

I'm running dan1j3l LeoFroyo Sense RC1, and I've got the same issue. I'm pretty sure they know about it...it's one of the bugs yet to be worked out. In the meantime, I've just been attaching pics to an email.
+1 on this. Its not a show stopper but it sure is annoying. I know I can't expect full functionality yet...

Thanks for the help, but I do have those settings. Still not working unfortunately.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I tried both dan's and darkstones's froyo builds. I can only receive but not send.
Could this have something to do with tmobile? maybe a reset of some sort?
Just to let everyone know. I am using a T9193 with ATT. No matter what android build I try I have the same issue. I can receive MMS but not send MMS. So I don't think it is a T-mobile issue only.
I can sent and receive them if my internet in on.
I have the same problem. But someone on the other thread said a different rom like the miri 17.6 fixed it. I still haven't tried it myself tho.
doing a little research about the builds and this question would be answered.
outgoing mms is not working quite yet on most builds. just sit tight.
It's working just have to get your apn right, just got mine working 10mins ago from the thread here

No dice for me with these settings. I managed to send a small picture with the default settings, but anything else is no go.
My phone also keeps bouncing between H and 3G whenever it needs to send / recieve data. But my speeds are incredible slooooow. 30kB/sec down and about 4 kB/sec up.
Thoughts?

Does MMS work on hd2 with android froyo?

hello all
i recently changed from the windows os to the android os on my T-mobile US Htc HD2.
i need help with one minor problem i have been having; i cannot send or recieve mms while on android on the HD2.
i am running the android froyo 2.2 by dan1j3l (or however its spelled ) and i have had no problems at all, except this. Oh, and i noticed that the volume(sound:ringtones, speakerphone in calls..) is lower than when running windows mobile. but to make things clear, i do have sound on my HD2 when on android froyo.
those are the only two minor problems i have had on the phone.
please help me
im not sure what other information may be needed in order to help me solve my problem, but it would be much appreciated!
thank you,
Vic_Gar
most everyone IS having trouble with the mms... i can recieve as i've heard others can as well but few can send. it's being worked on.
As for sound, it's the same thing... i think i read a few builds have improved sound quality but i'm not sure which... just gotta keep trying em all out, that's what i did.
I am also having this problem hopefully the devs will fix this..its been a month since i could send or recieve MMS
oo and im running froyostone rom
add me to the list.
although...i did have it working for a bit, using the settings where the proxy was set up in the default apn as well as the mmsc field. but it was SLOOOOOOOW (like 10 mins) to send an MMS. I messed with it (of course) now it won't send at all.
I can't find where I saw it but as far as low volume goes you need to max the volume in Windows before booting Android. As android basically runs like an app initially the WM volume setting is applied to it. Hope that helps.
ok, mms is working again.
it's still really slow though. This is my setup. What's a bit different from what I've seen is the combo of filling out the default prox/port and the apn type. I think most of what i've seen suggests filling one or the other.

I had this issue before myself when I first installed Froyo. What I did:
Before booting into Android, I made a call and hit Speaker, then raised the Call Volume all the way. I then turned off Speaker and raised the Call Volume again. I also double-checked the "Sounds" settings and made sure everything was set to "Normal".
I no longer have issues with the sound.
Hope this helps!
I can send and reciece MMS in Android
Im running Htcclay's SuperHD2 on mine and the only thing that acts up is if i use Chomp SMS. When that preview popup comes up with the text, when i reply it doesnt send. Everything works fine if i open the text and send a sms/mms
I have better luck sending and receiving mms using RMNET rather than ppp. It is very slow to send though...
I tried xjjk settings and, they did work for me. I don't have the MMS Protocol setting. Mine is not slow either.
So far this is working for me.

How'd you get it to start working?
While booted in android goto settings, wireless controls, mobile networks, access point names, press menu and select new apn, enter the above settings, press menu save. Go back into apn and select your apn you created.

I tried to use the settings, however I can not select WAP 2.0 I'm using nand cyanogen 2.1 build.. I get the little 3G symbol then all of a sudden it tells me "unsuccessful"
settings
yes follow the directions to add the MMS settings on your phone. everything will work after you install but with Android on your Micro SD card remember to reboot after the first boot. then everything should work.
once i got the settings right everything was working fine recv and sending MMS

Those are one of the two most common TMOUS "working" settings I've seen floating around on the forums, and I highly believe that the settings depend on your plan, location, or some other vague difference. Also, some mention setting the proxy screws up their https sessions. The other version is:

MMS Port: 8080
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type:default,supl,mms
There's a few TMOUS MMS threads floating around that might have other settings as well. Try one of the two above & see what works for you.
Also, I found I can't send MMS to a friend of mine, and after some troubleshooting, found that it's our phones sending too big of pics for her phone (on AT&T) to receive. I installed an app on an earlier build (that I can't remember name of) that pre-shrunk pics before sending, which then worked fine. So, when testing, check to see if it's your phone not sending, or just theirs not receiving.
This fixed my issue! yay! Thanks you!

T-Mobile US APN Settings for MMS

I have found about 20 different posts that all list different APN settings for T-Mobile US. Does anyone know what they should be for sure? Please only post if you are able to SEND MMS. I seem to be able to receive MMS, but can never send MMS. I have gotten it to work a couple times on some builds but the same settings don't seem to work on other builds.
Posting the settings is great but if you have a backup file from "APN Backup and Restore" that would be even more convenient.
Thanks
I fought with this same problem for a while, trying every setting i found in all the threads. One way i finally found that allowed me to send and recieve was to make 2 APN's, one with the standard epc.tmobile.com and nothing else, and another named t-mobile mms with the following settings:
APN: T-Mobile MMS
Proxy: None

Thanks. I'll give that a try and let you know how it goes. I read once that there are different settings for PPP and RMNET. I wonder if that's why I was able to get it to work on some builds and not others.

Thanks for these settings that u shared. This was the only APN that worked for my friend to get mms on tmobile prepaid with an AT&T Xperia Play 4g. They only get 2g/Edge, but I feel they even got an increase in speed from the "telekila"APN that was on the phone even if its small increase within 2g. Thanks everyone.
What are the correct apn settings for T-Mobile prepaid? Speedtest.net is reporting my location WAY off and pings are through the roof even though data speeds are just fine.

[Q] Can't send/receive MMS while on Wifi w/Royal Glacier 1.3

I did a search and I'm using some APN settings I found in another thread. They are:

I still can't get MMS to send/receive over wifi even with these settings. They worked on the stock ROM, and I'm not 100%, but I think I also had them working with Royal Ginger 1.5. Any help is appreciated.
If you are using wifi calling.... welcome to my world.
I depend on wifi calling to use my phone at home.
On royal glacier... the apn settings that are built into the rom work for the rom. The issue I have is with any sense based roms. No matter what I have done for apn settings, my phone will never send or receive a mms. Text works fine. I've used apn backup programs. Manually edited them. Tried 10 different apn settings I have found online.
Any AOSP rom I use... mms works perfectly. Without editing anything. Load up a sense rom. No mms.
If you get it fixed.. lemme know. I love aosp .. but would love to know the fix.
