Hey forum,
I know a lot of you would of heard stuff like this before, but after flashing Darky's ROM I'm having issues with APN. I have tried multiple times to access mobile Internet, and I noticed I have no access points. I have tried to create access points as I have been given the info on how to access Virgin's internet, but each time I go to save it, nothing saves, it stays blank. Anyone have any ideas?
Yeah it's a problem with JVO/JVH itself. I also had that problem. The trick is to not touch the MNC field when entering the apn. After that it's all sweet. So even if MNC is shown as 029 do not go in there and change it.
Hope that helps
try restoring to default apn then proly nothing will happen but you will be able to save new once after... worked for me...
solve
u can solve this problem when u flash the dark core 2.6 kernel
it work perfect with me
(sorry for my english)
I have the same problem.
I'm not running Darky, I have stock JVP, with CF_root
I did restore to default and I never changed MNC
Name, APN, APN Type are the only 3 fields i modified, and it still will not save
Any other ideas?
Can you send mms?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
No, I also need an APN for that.
Got an answer that seems to make sense, haven't had the chance to test it as I'm in the office for another 4/5 hours.

PLEASE give thanks to electrotune1200
Apparently re-flashing new firmware with an old CSC meant for your region should do the trick. Follow the link for more info.
If anybody is still interested, I did as advised in the link I provided above and it worked. Basically I downloaded an older firmware which had the CSC for my region of the world, and flashed the CSC alone to my phone through Odin, no pit no repartition.
It worked perfectly fine and I didn't lose any of my data or apps.
Good luck.

The diagnostic menu access and settings on the nexus 1 sprint rom for eris have changed providing only network selection type and some pretty cool battery stats.
This menu before provide a managery of localized network settings and changes that are no longer there or accessible by the verizon diagnostic number. If anyone knows what files in the rom are directly related to this structure change in the rom please post it here because i have a feeling its tied to the mms issues everyone is having. Its pretty much the only thing thats apparant as a physical change on this rom.

Thank you for your hard work in getting this fixed. Wish I had the time to help you out a little more.
We'll i've about exausted comparing files and swaping them out on my phone, i mean it shouldn't be this hard 2.1 is 2.1.
Yes but if your using a legend Rom than its a gsm ROM, so I believe this is were the mms problem is coming in to play.

I think he's talking about the sprint port from heroc. We're missing like one small part either about APN or some settings or something

Yeah, we're just missing something tiny, its working sorta on my build but not up to real usability yet.
can you elaborate on how you kinda sorta got it to work? I've noticed when sending there is sometimes a spinning data connect looking thing at the top as well. If you have any heads up i'll look into it.
And the apns-conf, i cracked open a nexus 1 rom and ripped out the file and theres verizon wirelss carrier settings in it. No go with that either. So it has nothing to do with the apns file or the mmsmmc or whatever file some people have noticed.

Pulling the APK's from the Eris 2.1 rom and putting them in the legend build got inbound going and sometimes it'll send outbound. I've still not worked out whats the last issue with it though.
I tried pushing the stock Mms.apk and .odex from eris into /system/app running aloyisous 4.1 and now my phone is stuck in never ending boot up. any ideas for a quick fix or do i have to reflash?
Edit: Fixed with a flash without wiping.

does mms work this way? I tried doing that for building the rom and it stuck at hung at bootscreen then finally got through then FC 1000 times
i pushed the stock mms and had no change in results, none at all, even though its a different file size. See mms.apk is the text messaging app, not the config file. We need to look beyond the app, the apns confg and whatever else is out. Or we'd have figured it out.
You said you partially got it working where ti sometimes works. What exact files did you copy to sometimes get this too work because i've yet to have 1 file go through.
MMS never worked on the 1.6 ROMS (T-mobile based) made for the HTC Touch on Verizon and other networks, afaik they still don't have it working.
found another adb file inside of framework-res.apk under /res/xml
but even though it says verizons link inside instead of sprints still no go. But i did received a "cannot send message not found" error after doing it only on picture outgoing. Maybe thats a heads up of where to start? Maybe that file in combination with another inside the framework folder is the key too all this.
Try this:
Load up a normal 2.1 ROM that MMS works for.
Download APN Backup & Restore.
Use it, Backup APN's.
Load up your Sprint ROM.
Download and open APN Backup & Restore.
'Delete APN's'
'Restore APN's', and choose the APNs that you backed up from the normal 2.1 ROM.
Your APN's may be very close, but this will make them E-X-A-C-T.
I'd be curious to see if this will fix.
You should read the forums bro, we've be explicitely dealing with apn file versions with no effect. Pretty much the first thing all of us tried.

If you know of another way i can send it to you i will ......
just curious, what personal info might be in this file ? any, or is just the generic VZW settings ??
you could email it, i think you can attach anything using the mail app off the sdcard but since I don't know what files it generates i'll just wait till im home. I think i can manage 4 hours of having to do work and not picture message.

sprint uses http://mms.sprintpcs.com
does anyone know what verizon uses?
ive done all kinds of google-ing and i cant find ****!
If someone can figure that out and post, i *may* be able to get this damn mms issue fixed!
thanks guys!
Here's how you can fix MMS for sprint-based roms:
Install and run a program called APN Backup and Restore from the market
Download and extract this attachment
Put the xml file (apns-Ivan.xml) in the /ApnBackupRestore/ folder on your SD card
Choose Backup APNs in the program. This makes a copy of your current APN file in case something goes wrong.
Choose Delete APNs
Choose Restore APNs and then choose apns-Ivan.xml from the list
Let me know if you need any other help.
no
CM builds dont work that easily
I wasn't sure what rom you were asking about. The APN trick only works on Aloysius, etc.
For the CM-based roms, I think each thread has their own fix. What rom are you using?
none of the builds have an actual fix. thats what me and conap have been working on. im on white widow. we have tried all the fixes, im looking into a new idea though.
thats why i need that info i posted up top
Gotcha. I'm pretty sure Verizon's address is http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
Edit:
If that doesn't work, try http://mms.vzw.com/servlets/MMS
I found that one on some WinMo forums.
awesome! you rock. thanks.
No problem, let me know if you need any other help.
well i finally got mms working on my droid eris on CELB 2.5 and im not using handcent either. Instead of using apn backup and restore i just adb pushed the telephony.db file and it worked!. granted im on a different carrier but it worked just fine for me.
I went through the flashing okay. And I was even able to unlock and do everything else including getting a code from MS. But when I get to the step that says run connection set up, it tells me that my carrier is not in the database and then tells me to manually set up my APN.
I know I did everything else okay, but I know I can't edit my HD2 registry settings because of this. And my market and xbox features don't work because of this issue.Please, if anyone has had this experience, or knows why I'm getting a "carrier not in database" when I run HTC Connection set-up. I would greatly appreciate it. I hope I'm not the only one having this issue.
Same problem here. Whats your carrier?
I already tried to add the keys manually using a registry editor. However it didn't work and the phone has locked itself again. Now I cannot even unlock it anymore using chevron (it says no connection) so I cannot launch any registry editor or try something else. Probably I have to flush it again. However what I still really need is a solution to this problem with the carrier.
I have solved the problem. My carrier is a small carrier from austria (bob). It seems that the HTC tool simply doesn't have any data for this carrier (the tool in win mobile 6.5 has known bob...). I used another sim from another austrian carrier (a1), whith this i was able to run the tool and add the registry data!
The Connection Setup didn't work for me too. Just ask your provider for the APN (Access Point Name) the Username and the Password and type it in Settings-network- add APN. Thats all.
For A1 /bob its:
APN: A1.net
User: [email protected]
Password: ppp
Yes, but entering the APN has not been the problem. I wanted to use the Connection Setup to add registry keys according to the WP7 guide. However, I already have solved this by using another sim of another carrier.
@oscar2010 did this work for u too?
I Love WP7. i got everything to work. the unlocker and sideloading apps.
sideloaded connection setup
ran it. ok i can recive mms. but since i have no data connection i cant download it. ive did the apn setting rebooted> battery pull>hard reset x2>even reflashed the entire rom
ive done all i can ive even pm'd a couple of ppl that could help me and that got me nowhere.
i need data thats what makes the world go round lol

Do the following Steps:
Go into Settings
Select Cellular
At the bottom screen select "add apn"
Type "wap.cingular" in the APN field
Press the check sign to save.
Soft reset your phone and you should have data access
Also make sure you have "Data connection" On

ok so I did that. And by soft reset I'm assuming you mean taking the battery out and putting it back in. Did that. No data still

I have the exact same issue. Down to even the same radio. Has this issue been resolved with the APN? I have no problem with data just MMS. I can neither send nor receive.
I tried:
wap.cingular alone and with the [email protected] CINGULAR1 username and password combination
proxy
ism.cingular
isp.cingular
I checked my girlfriends Samsung WinPhone 7 config on AT&T and it lists no APN settings at all yet MMS works without issue.
I am at a road block here and MMS is something I use for work almost daily. I would really hate o have to go back to WinMo 6.5.
Thanks for your time everyone,
Mike

Always use Connection Setup when setting after a hard reset or new flash. Do manual setup if no other work around. The new ROM's have a new database of carrier settings to automate connection setups.
Hi,
So I'm abroad right now with my unlocked sprint s4. I can use the sim card to call and sms without any problem, but I don't have access to data, eventhough my plan includes it!
also,when going to system update-->uicc unlock, it says:"mobile data not available"....what does it mean? How can I resolve it and define my apn settings???
This is so annoying for such an expensive device and a "world" one!
Please help....
Thanks!

My phone is rooted...the question is: do I have to flash a customized rom over the stock rom in order to gain access to this option? In the stock rom sprint/Samsung eliminated this option, you can't change the apn manually!
I'd really appreciate if you can help or if someone knows if a customized stock (also recommend which one is better) can get/let me access these apn settings.
Thanks!

Hi,
Had the exact same issue and got it fixed ..
here is how..
if your phone is already rooted..
open play store :
Download any APN database (i use HiAPN ) .. install
use titanium back up(PRO) to make that a system app.
if PRO version not available use root explorer to move the .apk to system/data..
Restart Phone.. SU will pop-up allow .. and Voila!!!
First post helping someone .. please do let me know how it goes ..

Hi,
I'm going to try it now, but didn't completely understand: Can I do it over the stock sprint rom? I prefer to leave it as is right now, and not add/replace with a customized rom...
Where do I find this apn database? Can I edit it with my local carrier apn settings?
Also, How do I use the titanium backup app to make the apn database to an app?
Isn't the HiAPN an app to begin with?
Also, Do you have the "sprint" s4 as well?
will this work with any apn tweaking program or database?
Thanks!
