Hello all,
I thought that it would be good to share this with the rest of the world.
I'm using the HTC Magic on fido, and for the longest time I had trouble finding working fido MMS APN settings. Most of what I could find via a google search referenced just setting up one APN, quoted various proxies, server addresses - let's just say a lot of contradicting information.
Finally - I did a quick search about the APN Type (the last field in the APN setup screen). I solved my MMS worries by setting up two APNs with different types.
So without further delay, here's the good stuff.
APN1 [this one will have the radio button beside it]
Name: fido internet
APN: internet.fido.ca
Username: fido
Password: fido
APN Type: default
(all other fields blank)
APN2 [this one will not have any radio button beside it]
Name: fido mms
APN: mms.fido.ca
MMSC: http://mms.fido.ca
MMS Proxy: 205.151.011.013
APN Type: mms
(all other fields blank)
Hope this helps!

PERFECT! I had the internet settings but not mms. other sites are giving incorrect mms settings for Fido, But U R DA MAN!
Data plan blocked?
Is it possible Fido applied the data plan shutdown to unlocked phone owners too? See article “Rogers Canada forces Android update that takes away root access” on boingboing.net.
I had good 3G bandwidth in the morning and no more connection in the afternoon. Still offline
Anyone else experiencing the same troubles?
They might have changed the APN credentials...
I recently got my sister's Rogers Dream ... NOT unlocked or anything...and i have the old sim from about 5 years ago....(don't know if that is the reason)
but these FIDO APN settings are not working for me!

Hey do you still have this problem? Because I do and I'd like to fix it. Do you think that Rogers ban extends to Fido customers as well (since they use the same network)?
This may help you to solve the problem.
Figured it out today thanks to all the other information here.
Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Acces Point Names
Create a new one for each:
Internet
Name: Fido Internet
APN: internet.fido.ca
Proxy: 205.151.11.11
Username: fido
Password: fido
MCC: 302
MCN: 370
MMS
Name: Fido MMS
APN: mms.fido.ca
MMSC: htp://mms.fido.ca
MMS Proxy: 205.151.11.13
MMS Port: 8080 (still needs to be confirmed, I didn't want to test too much without unlimited MMS)
Username: fido
Password: fido
MCC: 302
MCN: 370
APN Type: mms
So far it works!
These settings worked awesome for me. I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy S Captivate. I unlocked it to use on Fido's network. At first, my voice worked fine, but no data. These APN settings now have my data working. Thank you so much for posting this!
I'm using these settings on an unlocked Atrix and no luck at all. How long does it usually take for these settings to work?

Thanks so much for this tread.
Most of the informations was PERFECT for me.
Thanks again
works great. been using those settings for a while. Great job
Hey all, I just wanted to know what kind of data plans you have for your Heros.
I have looked online and gotten the right APN for AT&T. At least I'm sure.
APN: wap.cingular
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
Everything else I did not touch.
I am on AT&T, and have recently gotten the 10 dollar data plan. The browser and retrieving the weather works just fine, but when I try to sign onto Gmail using the Gmail application, it says that I have no network connection or my SIM card is not set up for this sort of data.
After further analysis, I was able to use Peep and Mail to check my Exchange email just fine. Only when trying to log into Google and Gmail that the error comes up. This happens with on Edge AND on Wifi.
The error: "This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care.
Are you guys on a PDA plan or anything like that? Let me know please! Having this phone with no access to anything sucks!
I called AT&T support, and since it is an unlocked device, they said they can't really help me at all.
Thanks everyone!
Well! Problem solved with a simple factory reset. Now onto add MoDaCo's ROM!
First android phone. Can you make some suggestion?
1. Should I debrand?
2. How to set APN etc.. to AT&T?
3. What apps should I install?
Thanks in advance
1)Try to debrand your phone, I am working on doing that on my x10. You can either debrand it through davinci or through the method that had been posted in this forum
2) here is the AT&T APN settings
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username:[email protected]
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410 (note. this could also be 310, 41 or 15)
APN Type: leave blank
3)check the app store and sort by top free apps
hope that helps
i left the username and password blank and it works
I'm using my Rogers x10 on ATT for the last week. I put in those apn settings above and it works great and I didn't debrand it. I'm doing that when I get back to Canada next week
Thank you. Really help....
I would not debrand until I found more about two issues:
1. Missing apps from the market
2. Whether PCCompanion or SEUS is able to continue updating the phone (I assume it will continue if the correct ware is used.
As for the AT&T APNs, they do work with most smartphones, at least the Androids.
You can also use SE website to set the 3g setting for your phone.

I'm not totally sure where this should go. But I've been reading up quite a bit and decided to try out android on my hd2. What ive got is a HD2 Tmobile US 1024, I'm curently running FroyoStone Sense V3.2 from october17, im running HSPL, and radio 2.12.50.02_2, the issue I have is ive been thrue the apn settings, called up tmobile even and they had me input the apn settings epc.tmobile.com and i get nothing, i have working 3g internet, however its spotty, seams to drop connection alot, but when i get a mms i go to download and it fails every time no matter what i do. now tmobile when i called up tech support, they said i need to just switch to a android data plan, as its the same price i can switch back and forth as much as id like, and it would allow it to work.. however ive see people here be able to get it to work, but most say it works with a smartphone plan.. i'm woundering if somthing els has changed tmobile side that would make me have to switch or do i have to switch or am i missing something in settings entirly here? id just like to find an answer to resolve this issue thanks and sorry again if this is in the wrong location...
This is an EXTREMELY common problem, and the solution can be found by using the search function.
i'm not sure you get what im saying, ive done the whole settings with the mmc settings and proxy settings ect and cant get it to work fallowing the stuff here. failure to download message every time no matter what settings i use in the apn, wich is why i'm woundering wich is the official instructions, and or if i need to get the android data plan insted.

You do not need to use an Android data plan. I am using a T-Mobile US HD2 on the T-Mobile US network and can send/receive MMS just fine. My connection, like yours, is spotty but it DOES work. Try the following APN settings. If they do not work then I'm not really sure what to do aside from try a different Android ROM maybe..
Code:
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy: NOT SET
Port: NOT SET
Username: NOT SET
Password: NOT SET
Server: NOT SET
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: NOT SET
NNS port: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: NOT SET
APN type: default,supl,mms

I personally use M-Deejay's Froyo HD v3.7. It's a Desire HD port. I use the 2.12.50.02_2 radio. I use the 3.14.531.0 (04666) WWE T-Mobile ROM as my base but my build is 23563(A personal unreleased ROM). I'm also using HardSPL3.
As far as WM ROM is concerned, I don't share my ROM. You could try any other WM ROM based off of the base ROM I mentioned above though and it should work just fine for you.
Best of luck!

About 3 or 4 months ago, we noticed our family plan phones would not send or receive MMS. I chatted online with T-Mobile support for hours and after the support tech resent several different sets of settings to our phones... magic ! He said our network settings had been surreptitiously changed by recent work on the network and he had no idea why.
Are you sure your phone is at fault?

I had the same problem as everybody else except when I used BlueTopia BUT my choice of flavor has always been MDJ Froyo (currently V 4.6) and I tried all the same things you guys did.

i have these exact settings. if i send myself a test mms it comes back, as working, in less than 30 seconds - flawless. however, when i send messages to other networks (like at&t and iphoner's) the messages don't get there.
i have read that our dns settins have to match the apn but i have no clue as to how the dns settings impact mms delivery. are iphones pre set to receive a certain size mms? any help would be appreciated.
I've never messed with DNS setting and when I've called cs they never mentioned it..

I am using the t mobile HTC HD2, I have it unlocked and running it for my at&t network. I have also started using the android program through my sim card, so basically my phone is running on the android interface. It works great, however i cannot access the internet nor send/receive picture messages. I need to figure out the VPN setting or Proxy setting for the at&t provider. Since at&t does not have this phone they are unable to help on where or how to do it.
