[Q][Help] Network/APN/Full Bars Failed Call - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi,
First of all, I'm running Cotulla's Stock Desire NAND Rom on my HTC Leo.
Lately I've been having the problem, a week at this point, where I have full bars and am unable to place/receive phone calls or send/receive text messages. This problem goes on for about 5 minutes everytime I unlock my phone. It's at a point where I don't even get incoming calls/texts.
I've done some searches, but all threads I've read say that it's most likely my area's tower's fault. But I'm just making sure because it seems highly unlikely that it only happens when my phone is locked...
Anyways, I'm also wondering if it has anything to do with my APN settings, since sometimes when I switch from one of them to another it seems to fix the problem for an hour or two.
I am unable to post my APN's because of the restriction that new users can't post outside links (which I guess includes the links in MMSC and server of the APN) My first APN uses epc*tmobile*com and my second one uses wap*voicestream*com
I will try and post my full APN info as soon as I can.
Edit: Here are my two APN's with * instead of . (sorry if I'm breaking a rule)

For a while I was using #2 because #1 was refusing to give me any data connection, but now I am using #1 after learning #2 was the old non-smartphone APN.
Is there anything wrong with my first APN setting? And could my inability to place calls be due to anything other than my local towers?
Thank You

Try these settings for APN. These are for data plan tmobile, it's hard to say which settings is best until we try it.

So I tried both out for about half of the day, and I'm having better data speeds with the 2nd APN setting (consistently around 2.75-3.5Mbps) however I'm still having the issue of sometimes not receiving/being able to send texts and calls even though I have full bars and am able to open my browser and load webpages. Is it likely that this is just T-mobile's fault or could there my an issue with my phone?

Not being able to send out text could be a problem with your current ROM. Try tytung's ROM, follow my sig. It's really sweet with tmobile.

I've changed the radio twice now, from my original 2.08.50.08 to 2.15.50.14(latest htc version) to 2.09.50.29_2(latest tmous release) and I'm still having the same issues of having full bars and not receiving texts/calls.
I really would hate to switch from this ROM, is there any other possible solutions to this issue?
If not, I guess it's time to try a new ROM... to flash a new Android ROM onto my HD2, do I boot into the Magldr USB Flasher or HSPL Flasher?

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:

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?

Are any developers working on mms????

Are any developers working on mms?
No. Everyone wants a phone without certain features working.
Cmon. Patience. These devs are working their butts off on numerous things... ESPECIALLY those that are common problems!
MMS is working on my cm6 rc1 build by zego.. i'm with tmo and the settings was the default settings from when i first loaded this android build. I've seen ppl complain about it not working and some does like mine for instance. So i'm guessing it depends on the settings of your one's network provider..

I'm also on T-mobile US I couldn't send mms with any version of Android. I kept searching on here... no luck so then i seen someone post that it was working for them they were using the Miri 23569 v17.6 rom so i changed roms and it started working i have not really tested it with any other version of Android but the Cyn6 but it is working for me there with 2.10 radio.

Jus to let u know u can edit posts while using the XDA app, jus long press your post and select Edit.
And to OP, the devs don't like when people bug about features that they know don't work or have bugs, they'll get to them as time comes, jus wait like everyone else.

interesting, i have the same problem just can't send mms. im using miri v17 right now. maybe i will try v17.6
just swapped over to miri 17.6 and the 2.10 radio. MMS receiving still works. however sending does not. also tried settings listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735532&highlight=MMS+settings&page=104
no dice.
A few strange things i do notice though. when you first start trying to send, the data icon on the top bar acts like its interacting with servers. i killed all processes to try and ensure there was no background data going on, still acted the same.
I then long pressed on the MMS i was trying to send and viewed the message details. Interesting find... The message details claims the entire message is only 1kb.
im going to continue to play with settings and see whats up.
disregard the possible background data. that data was being used restoring apps from the last android version i had installed.
I cant believe that I have my CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) i did not notice this.
IP address octets cannot have a octet begin with a 0
So. having said that. use these settings and have a great time sending messages.

I asked the developers not you! actually u replying to my thread is meaningless since u dont have any info on mms. I know wat the developers has done thus and we all are thankful. But this thread was made to either get some working mms, the status, some different settings i havent tried or for a dev to post the current progress on mms. now go sit in the corner and take a time out.

what are the settings?
ROM's with no SenseUI and stock Messaging App should work without error as long as APN is correctly Set. Stock/Non-Sense UI Rom's APN:

MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0

MNC: 260
AUTH TYPE: None
APN TYPE: default,supl,mms
ROM's WITH SenseUI all have the same issue/bugs if you are on T-Mobile in the US (even with the correct APN's set).
MMS pictures are shrunk to tiny tiny 2kb images when receiving with that HTC Messaging App, this is because Sense sends in the user-agent string for MMS found in: /system/customize/MNS/default.xml
T-Mobile's MMS server's doesn't recognize the "HTC Desire" user-agent string therefore when receiving MMS, you get a tiny tiny thumbnail pic. I think you can set it to "NexusOne" Or was it "Nexus One/Build FRFxx". Forgot if it was one or the latter. (OH.. this is only for TMOUS People, I don't think this affects european peeps, since the Desire Rom was made for that region.) Problem with this is, I think those settings are loaded with the initial setup (first boot, and I'm not sure where it's stored afterwards. If you modify now and save it, it seems to have no effect. Also, customized SenseUI seems to ignore the file altogether?)
Those with incorrect, or missing APN's using any ROM with SenseUI. If you are on T-Mobile, your settings should be as follows (This will allow you to send and receive, but theres the file size restriction):

Multiple mms on initial settings works. have sent 4 different pictures to multiple numbers. all confirmed working.
just tried it to no avail, running nrg's glass wm, 2.12 radio and dan's froyo v1 with the latest zimage.

i can receive them now, which i couldn't consistently before. still no luck getting them out however.
i should add that it shows the correct file size when i send it as far as i know, none of them have popped up as being 1kb.
If the message details show 1kb you have not sent a message out
working diligently right now.
I beginning to think Miri's ROM is the factor that is allow those to be able to send. Cause i sent 3, and not a single one worked for over 15 min had the logo, wifi, no wifi, and different radios.
Tried 2 other roms and 2 other android builds per winmo rom. nothing worked.
Did not try experimenting with radio tonight but after all was said and done. went back to the first setup ( Android; Shub / Miri 17.6
ok... something really weird is going on. With different builds i sent all different pictures of random items ( lighters, coins, water bottles ). now those builds that failed my testing were all taken off. SD card was formated between builds. I ended up going back to the setup I had when i started this thread, because it works.
Now i have the people who's picture i sent randomly saying that they are getting their pictures. 3 different pictures and people. Keep in mind that this is AFTER I formatted and went back to the working setup. so i didnt have the same pictures on the sd card.
Thoughts?
I think the problem is the windows rom. I tried many different android builds none of them allowed me to send mms. I was only able to receive them.
the serve is not epc.tmobile.com!
Its wap.voicestream.com
stop thinking its epc. Its not. Thats bs it doesnt work very well!

I found the PERFECT Internet and MMS Settings for HD2 Android Web2go!!!!

I've been trying for days to get this to work, I would get MMS to send but no internet and wont be able to download an MMS. I would be able to send an MMS but my number would come up as someone different. I haven't found a working config online for the Android Builds on MMS so I hope this helps everyone. it doesnt lift the 300kb limit, but I'm just freaking excited it works.

On my pictures, it always says "Generic Network Failure"
I am using the settings quoted. and i have their unlimited Data Plan. I have full Internet, Texting, and calling. But no PICTURE messaging. Thanks!
wow, I owe you a lunch for these. I can't believe I didn't try using the internet2 server for the mms server before. Thanks so much!!! I removed the proxy and it still works! I received the mms in about 4 seconds. Nothing else has worked and I've tried for hours and hours and almost gave up.
okay, only half working. I can send fast now, but can't receive anymore. It worked once then dead. I'll keep trying, but at least I'm closer.
Here's a more complicated, but maybe more effective method. I figured it out after trying several other methods to lesser and greater extents. This works for me but it may not work for you.

Wait at least a minute. I'm using Handcent. You should see your connection disappear when you try to send as it switches over to epc.tmobile.com from internet2. I am getting 3-8 second sends at 100kb with similar receive times.
I think the trick is to do this and wait about 2-3 minutes. At first I had problems with the browser. It told me that I needed to upgrade to get internet access. But after about 3 minutes it started working.
let's see. trying again...
picture sent in 8 seconds
received in 5 seconds. 83kb
world of frustration is over for now

There is an Energy Ti ROM under there somewhere too.
I also used *#*#4636#*#* (call this number) to set my Network settings to WCDMA preferred. I don't think that's what did it though.
thank you thehumble1 you settings helped me find another which works after my mms stopped working on AmeriCanAndroid gingerbread builds. if anyone is having issues I am using this apn

glad it worked for you. I'm still only getting success about 60% of the time, but it's the best I've had.
btw, if you said thanks, hit the thanks button too. It's a great way to help us know who is here to help each other and who's just looking for handouts.

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
Port: None
Username :none
Password: none
Server: none
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms.wapenc
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.050
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
I got the idea for using multiple APN's when i looked at my girlfriend's my touch slide's settings. Hope that helps!
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.
