I have a big problem with Android on my Galaxy S

Hello,
I have a big problem with Android on my Galaxy S can not collegrmi the corporate network as if the phone does not pass the PROXY connection it provides a set APN with proxy on port 8080 and authenticate. if I link the phone to the PC mode WiFi RIEC tamite the Galaxy to navigate with the browser of your PC use Chrome.
then the problem could be between your phone and the ISA server?? or it could be that your browser does not allow me to set the proxy and the gateway 8080??.
Thanks for the replies

Sorry but Nobody will be able to help you unless you write this in normal English! My English is quite good and I can't understand what the problem is exactly!

Sorry but hahahahahaha.
I think you cant connect to your corporate network amirite?
You can connect the phone as a hotspot on your pc.
You will have to ask your IT guy for the proxy settings for your corporate network.

I think the problem is due connections which require apn with proxy authentication

there is no private APN
but there are private Wireless Access Point (WiFi)
WAP is not the same as APN
APN is used by the cell phone to provide 3G/HSDPA over the air
if you have trouble authenticating to your WiFi at work, then as your IT guy for the authentication method.
if they use a browser authentication, you should be able to login after you type in your credentials

you mean VPN?

I use proxy server for wifi and cell phone business to Provide
3G/HSDPA over the air.
I made the following settings on Galaxy D created new APN:
Name :****
APN: Access Point
Proxy: local *****.*****.
Port: 8080
Username: my username
Password: *****
Authentication Type: PAP
Type APN: Internet
This configuration works on Windows Mobile 6.5 Phone and
work on Galaxy S.
Do you have suggestions this is a big problem because if a Galaxy
phone business.

Nobody can find a solution to this problem?

May can help but can u explain again the real problem.
U didnt get any connection ?
Apn settings are only to manage connection between phone nd gsm provider.
But listen to u..

i'm proxy business proxy authentication required

Sorry, but your post is not very clear. Anyway you should set a local APN only if somehow your company has a private GPS/UMTS network, since the APN is used when connected to the telephone network.
If you are connecting via WiFi the APN has nothing to do with that.
Instead go to the WiFi setup screen, select 'New network' and choose company network to setup your authentication parameters.
Short version in Italian:
l'apn non c'entra niente a meno che tu non abbia una rete cellulare privata nell'azienda, che mi sembra improbabile. Devi configurare la rete WiFi a mano dalla schermata di configurazione WiFi.

You really dont know what ur talking about, this guy is using the ACCESS POINT of his company, yes .. it exists !!
I got exactly the same problem, we also use our own APN from the company.
I get a message from the proxy itself: "Authentication required" it doesnt matter if i fill in the Username and Password or keep it blank, somehow it doesnt recognize the credentials, and the proxy keeps showing this message.
The account i use is able to get on internet, with Windows Mobile i dont have any problem with the same settings.
I'm busy mailing HTC about it, but i have to get passed their default answers like:
Did u trying to send an SMS to blahblah with "internet", so u will get the internet settings ... bs answers ..
Anyway, if i get a solution, ill post it here, otherwise ill send them all back !
Edit: I have HTC Legend's btw, so it's probably Android OS related ...

You can have ur own private APN, so it will make an connection to the provider, they will link you to your company APN and from there you can get on the company network with VPN.
Offcourse it works if u use the default APN off the provider, bcause u dont need any credentials for that ... and there's where the problem occures .. at the credential thingy.
SIM -> Provider -> company APN -> VPN -> Company Network -> Proxy -> Internet

So then, it seems like this is going back to the VPN settings...

Ok, and what's ur story to support what ur saying exactly ?
Why does it work perfect with Windows Mobile .. same VPN etc. ?
Edit: I had some contact with HTC, they advised me to shutdown the proxy server and try again ... so i asked this person to ask someone who is more technical and knows what the function of a proxy server is in the first place.
They told me a technical guy will call me in 1 day, and that was a week ago already. To be continued ....

most corporate or business networks, needs VPN credentials to login either via the proxy or via the VPN settings
but both are VPNs
depending on the requirements of your intranet, you might need to have your certificates input in one or the other profile
also some networks will require you to import a SSL certificate, or similar keys, specially when dealing with Cisco VPNs... which i'm pretty sure there is no way to get it to work properly with the SGS until they improve the software or release a 3rd party VPN apps for Android

The working Windows Mobile devices don't use certificates either, and it works.

The VPN is running at the provider, when i have a connection, i can access all internal systems ... the only problem is the way out, the proxy. It's not like every mobile device is installed with VPN software. Or maybe i don't understand ?

[q] WP7 How to set your APN? And how to fix wifi

Hey,
I just installed WP7, it's all running very smooth but my Wifi doesn't find any networks and I don't know how to set my APN settings.
I read other posts saying go to settins->mobile network and then edit apn. But I only see Add apn which asks for a username and a password?
Help would be appreciated.

Are you T mobile? All I did was put the carriers name. I have T mobile so i put "T-Mobile US" and left the rest blank. Worked for me.

apn
apn: epc.tmobile.com
user name: blank
password: blank
works for me (tmous) been using it for a couple hours. had one random reboot, but all good after that

I had the same problem, I use HI although he suggest i'm on KPN but you have insert in the APN section: portalmmm.nl

Wifi doesn't see any networks at all? Odd.
Wifi's working well enough for me. I did notice some pretty weird stuff, though:
It seems to be impossible to find out your wifi MAC address from within WP7 - I had to browse through my router's logs for it.
Once I found it, though, I soon realized that it was actually useless to know in the first place, since the MAC address seems to change every boot with this ROM (forget about restricting access to your network based on MAC).
While modifying router settings to get the phone to connect, WP7 also froze on me a few times.
WP7 will not connect at all with networks with a hidden SSID.
It would seem there's still some room for improvement on the wifi front.

I've the same problem with Wifi since i flash the OS with a SD cards !If i remove this one, all works fine!

wifi workig great here with conectify as AP. mac is changed on every restart also.

My wifi works and the phone shows a 3g, H etc signal, but I cant sent mms

Prepaid T-Mobile service
I believe the problem with the settings are not for the regular T-Mobile service, but for the Prepaid T-Mobile service (SimpleMobile), there is no place configure the APN with all the necessary settings like: Proxy, Port, MMSC, MMS proxy, MCC, MNC, etc.
If anyone finds a way to setup this values on HD2WP7 please post here.
Thank you in advance

Load the attached connection setup xap and run it, it will automatically apply your carrier settings for 3G and mms. Worked perfect for me (TMoUSA)

How do I load this file? I already tried it from the phone, but it doesn't work.

Does anyone know how I could sync to outlook with my hd2 wp7

When go to settings > celuar, click on automatic, then press manual. When you have done that you see a button sais APN. Click on it and put this in (Vodafone)
APN: live.vodafone.com
user: vodafone
pass: vodafone
All done, now It works (for me anyway). Wifi sucks on some SD cards, don't know wich ones.
Also there is somwhere here a APN list for alot of country's and providers. Search google XDA APN settings or so.

Thing this would work for getting ATT 3G and MMS working?

Yes, as long you as you put youre own providers APN settings It should.

I can't configure the apn settings, and the HTC Connection Setup show me this message: "the carrier doesn't exist in database. Please contact your carrier for connection setting and go to Setting>Cellular>edit APN for further configuration"...
Is there a way add my carrier the the database of the connection setup?

Any luck with the WIFI issue?
I've tried the above mentioned solution by removing the SD C & reboot again but i didn't work for me.

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.

[Q] HotSpot - stock phone... plz help

Howdy fellas,
I used to have HotSpot on my "stock" phone before then I updated my phone to KitKat and I had totally forgot about the HotSpot setting.
So I need your help. I rather not root my phone but if thats the only choice I have to get HotSpot unlimited data then that's fine.
So this is what I have
Under Access Point Names
-APN -> fast.t-mobile.com
MCC -. 310
MNC - 260
APN type - default,mms,supl,hipri,fota,dun
APN protocol -> IPv4
and I'm using HotSpot Toggle widget
I have all these settings for it to work but it hasn't. If I have left anything out I'll provide the info needed to get this working.
Carrier is T-Mobile and its Note 3

First, please make sure your APN settings is correct by checking the connection to the Internet.
If you are not sure about APN settings, you should ask your service provider (or your mobile operator)
Once you can access to the Internet using this APN, you can easily active the hotspot.

It works but I want it to bypass T-Mobile hotspot limit without them knowing. Before when I had the settings correct it wasnt affecting the Data but now it is.

T-mobile Tether Nexus 6

I had a hard time trying to get my tether to work through phone data instead of hotspot data but I finally was able to do it. I found information through the forum but nothing consolidating everything into one post. Some post came from the Flex group, some form Nexus 5 and other sites for info but I did the setup on my phone and it work!!
Must Have (these are the apps I used):
You need to be rooted.
SQLite Editor
Smanager
Things to do:
You will need to edit your APN
Edit your build.prop
Global settings
Editing your APN:
Go to your Settings>MORE>Cellular Networks>Access Point Names
Create a new APN that matches the Original T-Mobile GPRS
Make the changes to match like the pictures attached.
(Known changes made were adding dun to the APN type)
Editing your build.prop:
open SManager
go to System>build.prop
open the file as text and add the following to bottom of the file
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Save the file
Editing the Global:
Open SQLite Editor
Click on the Files tab
navigate to the following directory
Data>data >com. Android. Provider. Setings.db>Global
Look for the following entries. If the entry is not listed, add it to the file
package_verifier_enable =0
tether_dun_required =0
That should be it. Let me know if you have any questions.

I am on T-Mobile...I have been using Wifi Tether Router from the Play store.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
It masks internet activity and makes it all look like phone data. Have been using it over a year now and have never tripped up T-Mobile's alarms (and I have gone many gigs over the limit at times...but in general I don't abuse it). I like it because once it is set up, it is literally like a light switch. It takes a few seconds to turn on or off, but it works great. All that is required is root. You do need to tweak the settings to get it working on the Nexus 6, but mine works flawlessly.
I don't doubt that there are ways to get it working for free, but to me the convenience of auto-pilot is worth $2.50. I love that app.

APN has to have all IP-related setting show as IPv4.
(Settings -> Adv Settings -> T-Mobile GPRS (fast.t-mobile.com) -> APN Type/APN Protocal/APN Romaing)
All boxes on the main screen should be be UNchecked...except for "No Firmware Reload"...that needs to be checked.
I think all other settings can remain at defaults.
The developer (Fabio, [email protected]) is actually fairly responsive. I don't think he's a native english speaker but he's obviously intelligent and knows his stuff. There were some serious issues when Lollipop first came out (at least for Nexus devices), but the app seems to be working smoothly again.

I use this as well on T-Mo works great. I do however every now and then need to clear the app's data and reset it up to get it to work but once that is done the app works great.

I did mine this way since I like using the the native tether. I tried those before and liked it but in my office, I try to not be "that guy" which using the native tether works Good thing is that there are many ways to get around the problem and I wanted to share this since I was able to find it as a single post. I'm just contributing to the community.

Is this all for the stock rom or why are there so many steps? Ive used tmobile with wifi hotspot without issues on slimlp and doing this command via ADB stops the upsell at 5gb
This command replaces the steps of using a sql editor, if you don't want to purchase one or do not have one you can use adb and a computer
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/global --bind name:s:tether_dun_required --bind value:i:0
To verify the entry was successfully added, execute the following:
adb shell content query --uri content://settings/global --where "name='tether_dun_required' AND value=0"
If the query returns a row_id, you are good to go. Reboot phone and you should be fine.
Obviously you cannot use the IPv6 APN, tethering doesn't work. Here is my APN, I never had to do the build prop edit either as most roms include that now, at least SlimLP does.

I wanted to keep as much of a stock settings on the APN as possible. Thanks for the adb route, I personally haven't dabbled into adb.

I'm too lazy to type everything, so here's screenshots of my configuration.

volte breaks this?
Hey I've used the original post in the past successfully, but now that I've updated to 5.1 and have the advanced LTE services, it broke. It seems like if I have the advanced LTE turned off, it still works OK, but turn it on, and my tether gets metered again.
Anyone else notice this?
EDIT: Nevermind, it's not working at all now. I'll see if I can figure out why.

I just used the same setting form the OP and it seems to work for me. I am running Chrome 5.1 build. I do notice that sometimes some data goes through the hotspot route but most of the time it is going through the unlimited data route. Im not 100% sure if the data that went through the hotspot route is from my BT tether from my tablet. I will keep an eye on this since I have to recover my phone from an accidental data delete.

I'd like to report that this method no longer works for me. T-mobile seems to detect and counts my tether usage against my 3GB hotspot limit per month.

It's weird that it still works for me. I do have some traffic data on my Smartphone Mobile Hotspot but not not that much. I'g gotten 7gb of data through this method but I didt accumulate 800 MB of data through hotspot. This is with me only using my phone as a hotspot with my tablet and laptop.
