If you can get to the internet, you should be able to access android market, because it's on the web. So far I never fail to access the market, be it by using 3G or wifi.
If you insert your sim is should ask you which carrier you are on and configure your phones apns. Have to tried over WiFi and is mobile network enabled (hold down power button and select mobile network) make sure you have a data plan though. If it has a limit try 3g watchdog and apndroid. If not then contact your carrier or HTC since you may have a fulty unit

Thanks for the input guys I'll check on those.. But I am just wondering, does android market have some sort of location requirement? I mean is there a possibility that I won't be able to connect to the android market if I bought the unit in singapore then used it in the Philippines or in any other country for that matter?
Not sure it works fine in the UK. I think the location is only for paid apps. In the meantime contact HTC or try appbrain

You may need to update your apn.
Google your supplier your region and apn... Eg vodafone uk apn.
Then goto settings, wireless & networks, mobile networks, access point names.. Check that what you get from google is in there.

I am from Kerala State, India. I very recently purchased a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc (LT15i) Phone which runs on Android 2.3. I thought I would share this experience of mine with the forum.
I am a Tata Docomo Subscriber and since there is no 3G coverage in my area, I wanted to setup internet (GPRS - 2G) on the Arc. I called Tata Docomo GPRS helpdesk and they gave me some settings. With that settings, I was trying to create an APN and to save that and it was not getting saved at all. I thought that it was a bug. I did some research on internet, but couldnt find any solution. I did came accross the following links, but they were not satisfactory.
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=findpost&pid=1076166
http://androidforums.com/nexus-s-support-troubleshooting/301776-apn-fields-setting-problem.html
I did a reset of the phone and still the problem persisted.
The settings given by Tata Docomo GPRS Helpdesk was as under:
Name : TATADOCOMOINTERNET
APN: TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET
Proxy: <none>
Port: 8080
Usename :<none>
Password:<none>
MMSC:<none>
MMS Proxy: <none>
MMS Port:<none>
MCC : 404
MNC: 40
Authentication Type: <none>
APN Type: <none>
Wherever the <none> thing is given, I was asked to leave the field blank.
After typing all this, I tried to save this information and it was not getting saved. I lost my patience and called Tata Docomo helpdesk again and they gave the same settings. They were not in a position to help further.
I did a factory reset and tried once again. Still It was not getting saved.
I tried some R&D and tried to create another APN.
I gave the following values:
Name : TATADOCOMOINTERNET
APN: TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET
Proxy: <none>
Port: 8080
Usename :<none>
Password:<none>
MMSC:<none>
MMS Proxy: <none>
MMS Port:<none>
MCC : 405
MNC: 03
Authentication Type: <none>
APN Type: <none>
For MCC and MNC, 405 and 03 were the default values. I actually didnt do any modifications in those columns.
I tried saving it and it got saved. I restarted the phone and it worked. So, the only information required to setup an APN manually is the Name, APN name and Port No. Nothing else and its so simple...
Hope this helps someone....

Dear Tata Docomo,
Many thanks. Appreciate the reply.
The settings which I have mentioned in this forum are working just fine. I went to Tamil Nadu recently and it was working there also. I was able to use internet, A-GPS all with those settings.
Unfortunately your helpdesk couldnt help me properly. Would be nice if you could share this info with new customers who takes the pain to call GPRS helpdesk (after learning that long process of reaching there) to findout the settings.

'All Operator APNs | Beta' new Android app by Tweakker
Hi
Tweakker has developed an app that has access to a database of APN settings for more than 600 operators. This gives a total of more than 700 internet APN settings accessible by an easy interface in the application.
Our aim is to once and for all try and eliminate the problems of faulty APN internet settings for Android users. The application installs the settings and checks if a connection can be established. It rolls back to previously installed settings if it can't connect via the APN set up by Tweakker.
You can help make our app better by using the app. It is available in free beta from the Android Market. Just search for Tweakker and you should find it.
Any feedback or problems using the app you should post here and we will get back to you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13648113

I told him the E symbol should be active all the time. He said NO it won't work that way. Finally I found an option in Settings > Sony Ericsson > Settings download that fixed the problem.

According to wikipedia , however the MNC code for kerala - TATA teleservices is 035 instead of your 03 value.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code#I

Anybody having success in setting up Tata Docomo 3G on Google Nexus 4
Hi All.
I just recently got my new Google Nexus 4 from US. I am having trouble setting up 3G on my phone.
Docomo Customer case suggested using the APN name as TATA DOCOMO INTERNET with APN as TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET and leaving the rest of the settings to default.
Tried all the options of restarting the phone ,turning on /off airplane mode. None worked .
This doesn't work and TATA docomo support doesn't have any clue .Any help is greatly appreciated .

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!

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

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.

THIS IS A UNIVERSAL MMS CRICKET FIX...IT SHOULD WORK FOR MANY PHONES ON CRICKET!
I managed to find a temp mms solution for my Note 3 on Cricket wireless if you don't feel comfortable editing your build prop, or using root explorer yourself. YOU MUST HAVE TALK, TEXT, & WEB ON YOUR PHONE FOR THIS TO WORK!
This requires using two apps:
Chomp SMS to send mms(cant seem to get it to work on receiving)
Universal CKT app to receive which i provided (force closes when i try to send a mms not sure why)
First off make sure you disable any of your messaging apps "Auto Retrieve MMS" (i dont think it matters but I just have it that way)
Next: you will need to download chomp SMS from the Play store, once you install it open it and go under Settings>SMS & MMS Network Settings> go down to MMS Network Settings tab and click on APN Settings
Next step enter these exact settings:
MMSC: http://mms.mycricket.com/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: wap.mycricket.com
MMS Port: 8080
After you've entered them go back, and go down to "Send Size Limit" and choose 300KB & below that check the box on Delivery Report (not mandatory but shows when they receive it)
Now download and install the Universal CKT App which i provided with any file manager
and open the Universal CKT App, go to settings and enable Auto Retrieve MMS (once again i dont think it matters but I just have it that way)
Now try sending a mms using Chomp SMS(sender app)
and use the Universal CKT app to receive or download it (receiver app)
If Chomp SMS failed to send make sure you are sending with your wifi turned off & double check you APN settings
IF FOR SOME REASON YOUR APN SETTINGS ARE NOT STICKING ON CHOMP SMS, ENTER THEM WITH YOUR WIFI DISABLED..AND ALWAYS DISABLE IT WHEN SENDING A MMS

hey this actually worked perfectly. The only "problem" I guess you can say is that now I have two messaging apps, the regular one and this one. Is there a way to replace the regular one with this one? Or can I just delete the regular one, which (I'm guessing) would force the cricket mms to act as the default app? Thanks in advance.
