Hi,
I'm in a country where the operators don't have automatic configuration for GPRS. I have got the settings from the operators but don't know where to configure the X1 to do GPRS. I tried settings/connections/connection setup but it presents me with country selection and operator. My country isn't listed. Next I tried settings/connections/connections and add a new modem connection. Here I'm stuck cos I'm unable to put in the settings given to me by the operator which consist of:
username
password
accesspoint name, proxy and port.
I've put in these but X1 is always unable to connect.
Any help will be appreciated.
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Manage Exisiting Connections -> New...
Enter a name for the connection: Whatever you want (something like your Networks name should help later on)
Select a modem: Cellular Line (GRPS, 3G)
next
Access point name: The one you got from your network
next
Username: The one you got from your network
Password: The one you got from your network
Domain: Leave blank
Fininsh
Proxy Settings
tick This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet
Proxy server: Enter IP address given by Network:Port number
OK
Fingers crossed this should work, haven't set up a new account in a while.
Sorry folks. I figured it out. I had to set the proxy in advanced. A bit of a drag I should think.
how can i block all data except MMS on android. my gf has a g1 in germany and doesnt have data plan but would like to be able to send/recieve mms but want to block anything else from using data like browser, maps, gmail etc....apndroid doesnt allow mms if everything else is blocked. any suggestions? or ways to get apndroid to work. maybe settings need to be messed around with
Well guys, I just thought I would give some input here…
I have the G1 without the data plan, and everything works fine with no problems.
The only thing I did have a problem with is MMS, but I got around it by going with the settings I used on my old unlocked HTC 8125:
Menu > Setting > Wireless controls > Mobile networks > Access point names
Once you get in there, scroll down until you see T-Mobile US and input the following settings:
Name = T-Mobile US
APN = wap.voicestream.com
Proxy = 216.155.165.050
Port= 8080
Username= None
Password = None (delete the 4 digit PW that is there)
Server = Not set (also delete the 1 digit PW there)
MMSC = Unchanged (do not change it)
MMS proxy = 216.155.165.050
MMS port = 8080
MCC, MNC, and APN type all stay they was they are.
Now as far as remembering the old information goes, you can always go into T-Mobile US 160 (right below T-Mobile US), which has all the same settings as T-Mobile US including the password. All you have to do is copy and paste it.
How do you copy and paste? To do this let’s say you go into T-Mobile US and where it says “Name.” Click it and the edit box will pop up; hold your finger on the name, and then another box will pop up; click “Copy all” (this is only going to copy what is in that box). To paste, you go wherever you want to paste it and do the same steps.
Hope this can help you guys. I know not being able to send or receive MMS was getting to me pretty bad.

Summary:
Some providers make use of a different APNs for MMS and data. In such cases, leaving the APN type as "" will cause MMS not to work (see History for explanation). To fix this, we have to ensure the following:
Data APN Types are set to "default", or "default,supl" (if you're having issues with AGPS, use the supl one)
MMS APN Types are set to "mms"
In other words, APN types should not be left blank for any APN. Hope it helps. For a detailed description read below.
History:
Hi all,
I previously had MMS working perfect after following this instructions: http://www.systemscrafter.com/imho/archives/6, but since I switched to CyanogenMod BETA 3 MMS hasn't been working for me.
After some testing, I've found out the following. It seems that under APN Type, the one you use for data MUST be designated as "default", and for the MMS one, as "mms". Lower-case. The apns-conf.xml left out the "default".
Secondly, after doing that, it still did not work reliably. This was solved by removing one of the data APNs. In Cyan's apns-conf.xml, there were "Gee! (GPRS)" and "StarHub Internet". These 2 are essentially the same APN point (one uses proxy, one does not), configuration wise, just given different names. I removed "Gee! (GPRS)" and entered "default" under "StarHub Internet", and MMS is now working perfect.
Update: xiutian had a simpler fix. Simply go to "Gee! (GPRS)" and "StarHub Internet", make sure both of them are set to APN type "default". It works, just tested. In other words, never leave the "APN type" blank. It has to be either "default" or "mms". (Any other values? not too sure...)
Update #2: cyanogen has kindly informed me that setting it to "default" may cause AGPS to stop working. After doing some searching, I found this: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...how-can-i-get-internet-work-my-nexus-one.html. Apparently, setting it to "" makes Android use it for everything, which explains why MMS was not working for some of us. To fix the AGPS part, instead of using "default", we now use "default,supl".
Update #3: @bcpk on Twitter has kindly pointed me to the following article: http://wccftech.com/2010/09/09/solving-gps-nofix-problem-cyanogenmod-6-nexus/ Do check it out if you're having issues with CM6.
Hope it helps some of you.

I'm sorry to say that it did not help me.
I'm on Orange in Switzerland.
I had to input the apn myself and don't see where i can make it default or not.
Could you please provide me with a little more info?
Thanks
I went thru the APN list and made the necessary corrections. Will include in beta4.
The file is here if you have anything to add:
http://github.com/cyanogen/android_vendor_cyanogen/blob/eclair/prebuilt/etc/apns-conf.xml
Awsome
For Orange CH I've found 2 things that work for me,
1) apn internet
mcc 228
mnc 03
2) apn wap
proxi 192.168.010.002
port 8080
mcc 228
mnc 03
Both these settings work to get data, but I still havent managed to find the correct mms settings, and the shop not only wants me to leave them the phone for an hour or 2 (i wonder why) but then they want me to pay them extra for the mms info..BS
I've been searching on the web but all the settings I've found and tried are not working.

When entering your APN, scroll to the bottom, there's a option "APN type", tap on that and type in "default". To be honest I don't know why Google can't make it a ListBox where we can choose from...

ahhh thanks,
I always thought apn type had something to do with the operator and therefor never even tapped on in.
I'll keep trying then with some of the settings I've found online, set the internet one to default, and see what happens, as soon as I can

I'm on Centennial Wireless. I had the internet working since day 1. But this didn't help with the mms. It does seem 2 almost connect now that I put mms in type, but still no go.
success
yeaaayyy i finally got it.
Orange switzerland has 2 sets of settings, one for data and one for mms.
I had the correct information for both, but my mistake was in the apn type field.
So I went ahead and made the main data on default,supl and the other mms et voila...thanks...that link helped
L
esincho: More info would be good. You put "mms" in type for your MMS APN, right? What about your Data APN? What did you put in type for that?
Seems that the new Nexus One update has an updated apns-conf.xml.
Some of the settings have changed, particularly StarHub.
Code:
<apn carrier="StarHub"
mcc="525"
mnc="05"
apn="internet"
type="default,supl"
/>
<apn carrier="Gee! MMS"
mcc="525"
mnc="05"
apn="shmms"
mmsc="http://mms.starhubgee.com.sg:8002"
mmsproxy="10.12.1.80"
mmsport="80"
type="mms"
/>
I've also uploaded it here: http://www.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=wysie/MISC/&file=apns-conf.xml

sorry bro U right. I'm not new 2 having 2 put in these settings, cause I am on Centennial and I buy all my phones unlocked cause Centennial phones suck. My internet works fine, 4 it under type I put default,supl cause I read somewhere this is what 2 put. Like I say, I have all the right mms info from the carrier cause I'm use 2 putting it in. I shows like it's connecting, but it don't maintain connection.
I just received a mms and was able 2 open it, but I still can't send any.

Uff, thanx this helped me. Now I can use MMS on Orange Austria.
how can i verify AGPS is working?
htc magic next to my n1 seems to show more accurate position, and we're in door so it couldn't be pure gps
I can't seem to have MMS working on my N1. I am in Honduras and the settings seems to be pretty str8forward but my MMS are not going out.
I've set up the 2 apn and tried both the "default" and "defaul,supl" setting but nothing. The message is never sent out. I seems like the application is calling the APN but then it stops. I can see that for a second the icon of the Edge connection disappears when trying to send the MMS.
How would you configure your apn with the following settings :
nombre de la configuracion: MMS Claro
Pagina de inicio: 10.6.32.27/servlets/mms
Punto de Acceso o (apn): mms.megatel.hn
Dirreccion IP: 010.006.032.002
Usuario: mmsmegatel
Contraseña: mmsmegatel

I'm on AT&T right now,
i use APNdroid to disable Data, but i still want to be able to use MMS, so i set APNdroid to still allow MMS, and i made anothe APN with the necessary info and as APN type MSS
but it doesn't seem to work, any input?
after some fiddling with it i fixed it myself
i took the default APN added MMS as APN type
and told APNdroid to ALLOW 3g data (so practically not use apndroid)
and NO MMS Port as seen at some other places, MMS port is <not set>
For those who wanna see entire settings for JUST MMS (not data)
Name: AT&T MMS
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: <not set>
Port: <not set>
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Server: cingulargprs.com
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: <not set>
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: <not set>
APN Type: mms
using APNdroid to disable Data and keeping MMS doesn't work, just set the APN type to MMS and you're good..
if you want to use both MMS and Data just keep the APN type field <not set>
DATA/MMS
Thanks to wysie i was able to get data on internet2.voicestream with apn type default,supl and mms on epc.tmobile.... would anyone else know how to set up the apn for other apps like t-mobile my account that uses epc.tmobile.... what apn type would that be so android knows to switch it to that apn to access info?

Thank you soo much Wysie. you have no idea how long i've been searching for a solution to my mms/data issue on my Hero and then Nexus after it. I owe you a couple o beers
Hello all, I am requesting help with an issue that I am having with my HD2.
Ive had the phone for a little over a month now, and it is a great device. I bought the phone unlocked, and it was working just fine. But recently the pass code (the 4 digit pin to use the phone) to unlock the phone stopped working, because of this i had to do a hard reset on the phone. This set everything back to factory settings.
After some work I got most of everything back to normal, my only issue that i am having is Sending MMS messages. I have the server set up correctly as well as the data connections to the internet but for some reason it still wont let me send MMS messages.
I searched all over the board but nothing i found could help me so far.
If anyone has any advice or know how on how to fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Ive searched the entire board thoruoughly, and unfortunatly most of them only talk about fixing the MMS server (which isnt my problem), unless i overlooked something
@Shum97 i appreciate that, but thats the set up for Virgin Mobile phones, not ATT
No other help? Anyone?
i dont know about at+t but on o2 uk i have to have two data connections set up. One is the proper mobile data "mobile web", the other is wap, "o2 active", and this is the one used for mms.
If i set the mms settings to use the regular data account it fails.
Thing is, when you go to settings all settings connection connection and press 'manage existing connections' you only see the mobile web account available to edit.
What you need to do to see the other is go to advanced tab, and 'select networks'.
In the top dropdown, mine says mobile web, but if i change that and choose o2 active instead, click OK, and now go back to the tasks tab, the top half now lets me click 'manage existing accounts' to edit the o2 active account instead of the mobile web account.
(dont forget to change it back, else progs that auto connect to the net will try to use the wap account. In my case it still works, but is slow, and i think costs.)
So, , , not sure if it is any help to you, but when i set up manually, (and i have done three or four times) i ...
1 - set up the o2 active wap account
2 - set up the mobile data account
3 - set up the mms server settings, making sure to choose o2 active and not mobile web as the connection.
THanks alot, ill be sure to give this a try, Does anyone think Flashing my device might help with my problem?

only if the 'connection setup' has details of the at+t network in it. connection setup for the euro leo can be found as a cab, im sure the tmo one can be too, but i suspect neither will have att network settings in it.
Id guess it's manual all the way, sorry.
ah i see, ill play around with it and see what i can do then
Hello, I have Samsung Focus rev1.3 Unlocked phone, with interop unlock. Is there any way to manually edit settings for MMS? I enabled auto SIM settings, but it doesn't find my operator. Also I installed app from Samsung which is called Network Profile, and only AT&T is showing up there.
Here are MMS settings for my mobile operator:
• Homepage/Service centre address/MMS relay server/Server MMS/Connection URL: mms.geocell.com.ge/cmmsc/post
• APN: mms
• Gateway IP/Primary proxy: 10.11.240.7 Port: 9201 (WAP1.1 )
• Gateway IP/ Primary proxy: 10.11.240.7 Port: 8080 (WAP2.0)
• Authentication: normal
Is there any way I can manually enter them?
Also, I tried this method and it seems 277634#*# code doesn't work for samsung phones:
"1. Go to the phone app
2. Dial ##634# and click Send
3. When prompted for a password type 277634#*#
4. You should now be at "Factory Menu"
5. Choose "Engineer Menu"
6. Choose "Other Setting"
7. Verify that "Set ADC" is set to Enable
8. From the "Other Setting" page, choose "Set network profile"
9. You should now be on the "Set network profile" page and in the bottom half of the window you should see a list of *.xml files. These appear to be the network configuration files.
10. Look at the filenames for the config files and take your best guess at which one to choose for your provider. I'm on AT&T and I fixed the MMS problem by choosing "_PROV_ATT_US_310_410.xml" "
Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you
Did you find the answer? I am also dealing with this. I talked to my carrier, Samsung and Microsoft about this and still have no solution.
I was able to get mine working on Bell in Canada by editing the registry with this entry. I have not had to manually set any other options including the APN info.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AutoDataConfig]
"RunADC"=dword:1
"ConfigurationStatus"=dword:0
"Attempt"=dword:0
"MaxAttemptsAllowed"=dword:3
still trying to get this working...
I'm planning to install [ROM] Clean ROM - Stock UI - RTM 8858 Base today, is there any way to manually edit MMS settings?
it works
Just go to edit APN in Cellular Settings and type in your Carriers APN.
What I did was I typed in T-Mmobile's APN and my mms worked find after that.
