It's probably an issue with your friend's device. Have you checked to see if the pictures are better quality when your friend sends them to other people?

yes i did check my moms phone and my brother's as well..and when they send me picture it looks blurry on my gs2... my mom has an galaxy s 4g and my brother an iphone 4 and they send pictures to each other and it looks perfect. I don't know what the problem could be.. maybe the mms.apk?

anyone guys???

This is a known issue when using non T-Mobile phones on the network. There was a fix for WM but non that I know of for android.

[Q] [Issue] 3G not getting connected

Hi,
I have tried many SD build available in here, but some how I am unable to get my 3G working.
Currently I am using HTC HD2 with build PPC_SHIFTPDA SERIES (RAM) Edition
(28.Jan).
I am able to see 3G icon, but all it does is transmit data arrow blinking, no receiving data.
To clarify I am currently at Manila using Globe.
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Have you checked your APN settings? That's normally the problem when you can't get a data connection.
Hi Thanks, yes I have checked APN.
Same APN settings works on my Windows Mobile
Guys any help will be appreciated.. please help

Apn for free tether 2.2

What are the apn setting to get tether of 2.2?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Are you running the official AT&T 2.2 update? If so, I don't know that you have permission to change the APN settings on the phone.
If you're using a custom ROM on a rooted phone, all the popular ROMs should already be configured to work with tethering.
I'm running official update. What it does allow me to customize apn. Could u give me the setting?

Are you trying to use att built in tether app? Cause that's a paid service you have to add to your phone. You need to use a third party tethering app.

Atrix AT&T APN settings [CWM]

I know I had to hunt forever to find these so I thought I would post them to make it easier for anyone flashing custom firmware. Every time I reflash or do a factory reset it deletes my APN settings and apparently AT&T's technical support doesn't know how to set them up. They actually referred me to Motorola. Anyways, here they are.
You can also use the attached zip along with APN Manager from the market. I don't recall who posted the original zip so thanks anonymous internet savior.
[EDIT: Now attached is a flashable CWM. Haven't tried it yet so I'm not responsible for anything.]
Oh and from what I understand you need all 4.

Thankss youuu
THANK YOU so much for this listing! Someone sticky this if it hasn't been, APN listings FTW. Huge help.

No problem guys. Was hoping someone would find this useful. Just glad I could finally contribute something.

thanks for this very helpful
Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
I'm on 2.3.4, unlocked and rooted - but the APNs are all locked for me. How do you unlock them?
WOW

Thanks a ton !! This saved me bigtime !! Alien V4 only gave me 1 apn (AT&T 310 410), and this restored all of the stock ones.
Only question is, should I select 'att us' or 'att us hsdpa' ?
Thanks !
I default to hsdpa, but both should work fine in theory
Tune it to the HSDPA I have seen better results with this setting but yes either one can be ok.. I just prefer knowing that I do have HSDPA so assume you have the same thing Cheers..
has anyone run speed tests to confirm better speeds? I have att and att tethering apns, does the hsdpa have better download or is it already intergrated into the one I have?
It should be the same. You can got to speedtest.net to confirm. When you enter the URL from your phone it will redirect you to the Android market. At that point you will be able to download the speedtest app. You may also be able to just search for it in the market.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
I run the speed test on mine I was getting about 1.5mbps down and 1.0 up with wap.Cingular,and with hsdpa I got 3.2 down and up. That fairly comparable to what others are seeing? Havent tried it while connected to wifi yet...
Does this mean I will not use HSDPA when I tether?
What is the purpose of the tether APN?
reactivating data
since yesterday when i was trying to refresh my contacts, i managed to mess up my wireless data connection. i am unable to reconnect. i have reflashed and reinstalled all apns...rebooted phone etc, but cant get wireless data back. any thoughts on why?

The ATT-Tether APN wil flag the traffic as requiring a tethering plan. If the phone is un-hacked this is how ATT blocks the tethering for those who have not bought it.
The key is
APN Boadband.
which can only be used if you bought the tethering plan.
While the generally available option
APN PHONE
Is what everybody can use.

Exactly, the tether is specifically for tethering. From what I saw when I had the tethering plan was that it still had the same speed but it connects to a different system that is designed for tethering. I think the main difference is so that it doesn't route your computer to WAP sites. It uses isp.cingular instead of wap.cingular.

Why aren't people just using sql editor to disable the entitlement check? I do with every rom and have never gotten any kind of letter or problem.

My MMS has stopped sending. Any suggestions?

MMS stopped sending pics a day or two ago. Does the 'sending spin dance'.
Any suggestions really appreciated.
Thanks
Check your MMS settings to see if they are correct for your carrier

I'm using Att and just have 'automatically select preferred network'
I had the problem last month. Try typing phone number manually no dashes or brackets. If it goes through just use the contacts cleanup App and fix your contacts.
Mike
have you checked the actual APN settings for our carrier? I have had it in the past when the settings get messed up.
Settings>Wireless&Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names>select your APN which I assume is called ATT (or maybe Cingular by the looks of the settings I found on net) and check the settings are correct, mainly MMSC for MMS.
From looking on the net the settings should look something like this
Name: Cingular 410
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: <Not set>
Port: <Not set>
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com/
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: <Not set>
APN type: <Not set>
Worth a check.
Thank you. Those settings did it. Wonder how they got messed up?!
I copied and saved them.
Thanks again

[Q] Getting MMS to work with a R800a on AT&T.

I can't send or receive MMS. Usually hasn't been all that bad because most people send me dumb **** anyway, and I pretty much only send MMS if I'm requested to send a picture of something. Either way though, I spent the whole half a stack to avoid dealing with Verizon/losing a carrier that's been good to me, so I'd like to have everything working.
If it has any relevance, here's my APN settings
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR
Server: <Not Set>
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: <Not Set>
APN type: <Not Set>
My 3G always works flawlessly... but I feel like I've done something wrong... some tell me to set the APN type to default,supl, some say leave it blank... seems that regardless of the change it doesn't allow my MMS to work right.
