Data Not working on Telus - Omnia 7 General

hey I have a Samsung focus unlocked with a telus sim in it. Everything works fine except MMS and 3G data. I dont really care much about mms but im paying for data. So im wondering if there's anything thing I can do to fix this. In the settings it has no data options, and for some reason it says 3g on the signal at the top of the phone but no connection when i try anything.
thanks

Install Network Profile from Marketplace (under Samsung Zone) or via web here.

in settings goto cellular and at the bottom goto edit apn and enter the following settings
apn - sp.telus.com
proxy server/URL - 74.49.0.18
proxy port - 80
leave everything else blank and hit the checkmark.
after that you are good to go.

make sure you reboot the phone

Thanks guys! The reboot is really what helped me out the most. I love the internet

Setting for ATT (I have an ATT 3G SIM Card) on my NEW TyTN

I have just received my new TyTN. I have no idea how to enter the settings for GPRS and / or HSDPA. Can anyone point me in the right direction. i was told because I am on the old ATT Charter Plan, my settings would be a little different than the regular cingular. Thanks in advance
I am assuming you mean Cingular in the US. If that's the case .. please check this thread out ..

I do not understand this enough to decipher your notes. Would you, or someone else be willing to help me out a bit and explain it, or walk me through it.
Thanks
Ok..I really need help and I hope someone is willing. I do not understand this stuff enough to figure out what the post above was.
I am making calls. Surfing the web, but I can not send Text Messages.
Would someone be kind enough to treat me like the moron I am, and explain what settings I need and where to enter them.
I am still on the ATT network and have not switched over to a cingular plan. I have the old ATT charter plan with unlimited data. Thanks in advance

Anytime I have switched to another unlocked GSM phone my TXT messaging always worked by default (someone correct me if I am wrong) but the message desk # is in the SIM Card.
I have the same exact plan as you do and probably the same SIM (blue one)
Does TXT messaging work on other phones?
I called Customer Service and they had accidently turned off the text messaging. Now I can send, but I still can not get pics.
to make matters worse, I can not connect to the Internet. I keep getting a message that says,
"Cannot conect for an unknown reason....."
Before speaking to customer service, I could connect. I had not entered any settings and I could connect.
I tried the above settings and get the same message.
Anyone have any suggestions?
ring them back and tell them they have prob switched you data plan off lol

Java - Would you believe that is exactly what happened? They "accidentally" turned it off. I had a number of blunders like that with them. I do wonder if it is because I still have the old ATT Charter Plan. I have unlimited phone everything for $99 and unlimited data for $24.99. They keep trying to make me switch, but I am like NO WAY. Stuff like this keeps happening to me. I do wonder if they do on purpose.

any dream/magic users in india?

hi guys was wondering the above? i heard its quite difficult to get the EDGE/gprs working on this phone in india.
Thanks!
No. Getting EDGE to work is as simple as in any other country. Just find out APN settings of your provider and add them from settings.
thank u so much i will do so!
Im sorry for being daft but when u say sim unlocked,does it mean it will work on any network in the world? Or just diff networks in the country u bought it in? Im askin cause im in india and i hope it works here

I am using Magic with Airtel. EDGE is not a problem works fine, I am on weekly unlimited plan.
great! i also figured out the apn setting using it with vodafone,although vodafone doesnt have any unlimited data packages in india
Edge/gprs settings
Can you write the apn settings of vodaphone as you have set on your phone here.
Thanks.
www
rest is default
Hi,
I have problem in accessing the secure sites using the normal vodafone GPRS connection wit the APN "portalnmms" None of the "https" sites will open nor can I use the active sync or other push emails.
I tried to create a new APN with "www" but once I selected it as the default APN, my GPRS stopped working. I have not changed any other settings. Please could anyone help.
Thanks,
Deepak
Gprs settings not recieving from airtel.
I am using Airtel as it Is..... can someone tell me what settings work on my stock HTC magic phone. I have Airtel live activated. And I was very able to browse and log in to my mails etc. (The customer care guy was surprised that I had been able to access mails on Airtel, however I dont y he felt so). But when I went on roaming I was not able to access my mails but only cue browse the net. Then I tried resetting my fone to factory settings losing the Airtel live settings. Then called up Airtel and asked to send the settings, BUT THEY SAID THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO SEND THE SETTINGS TO MY CELL AS I WAS IN ROAMING.
Then even when I came back to local, they were not able to send me the gprs/mobile office settings to my magic. Any idea guys ......?
not able to avail 100MB plan from airtel
After repeatedly making requests to airtel customer care, I am not able to get the free 100 MB plan, which comes with new Airtel magic, activated on my handset.
It seems that Airtel is not yet technically equipped to support android handsets.
I am using AirtelLive and paying 100Rs/month for usage
Even I am also facing the same problem. SSL sites not opening up. Not able to access gmail/gtalk/Android Market on my GPRS connection. Have a Vodafone connection.
Tried the "www" APN settings thing.
Didn't work.
Any breakthrough so far?
After going through a few forums, I guess its a problem with the APN. Many people suggest clearing the proxy and the port fields. I tried that. But then, my EDGE connection was lost and I couldn't connect to the net. Following are the current APN settings that I am using:
Name: Vodafone live
APN : portalnmms
Proxy: 10.10.1.100
Port : 9401
MCC : 404
MNC : 27
APN type: default
If anyone is using any other settings on Vodafone, Do inform.

Well I have magic (not bought from airtel, but imported from TW), I have taken 399 gprs plan and every thing works fine. I sync exchange mail, gmail, yahoo mail, browse including secure sites. No problems at all.
1) You need to get mobile office GPRS plan activated on your number
2) APN settings are simple -> Set APN to airtelgprs.com and leave all other settings as is and set APN type to default, if your mobile office is activated you can see all you data stuff working.
Update: I have this from June 09 even before HTC launched Magic with Airtel

APN issue
I flashed my HTC Magic to Amon Ra's 1.6 ROM. Everything works perfectly except gprs. The baffling thing is that when I put in some random settings for the APN, they get saved, of course it doesn't work, but when I add the correct settings, the new APN doesn't appear in the list at all and the gprs does not work. I am using a vodafone connection. Any ideas?

*SOLVED*Defect Tab??? Won't connect to Bell's 3G network

Is there any special things to do to have the tab connected to Bell's 3G network when you want to use self service data plan? My SIM card was activated, they gave me my tab's phone # and ''all'' I need to do is to access the self service thing using the tab... the thing is when trying to access the self service I received an error message saying that I must be connected to the 3G network in order to have access to the self service.
I've spent 1h45min on the phone last night with Bell to try to have the Tab connect to the 3G network with no success Even worst, the guy made me do a factory reset otherwise he would not continue troubleshooting the tab... so now I'm back to square 1 and still no 3G network.
Bell's CSR told me to go to a Bell's store to try another SIM card to see if it works and if not to return to tab because it's defective The thing is I went to 2 different Bell's store and they don't know sh*t about the SGT.
Turn off WiFi, it only works if you're connected to the HSPA network.
With WiFi off, are you able to connect to teh internets at all, or are you just having a problem using the Self Serve application?
We did try turning the wifi off, no internet connection and no self service thing. All I get is an error message saying that I must be connected to the internet to access the web lol...I know that...that's what we are trying to do.
Bell's tech said that when the SIM card is insert I should see a 3G icon somewhere on the top right side of the screen near the battery and network bar graph thing but I don't see such icon.
He also said that his system see my SIM card on the network but there's just no data going back/forth from the network and my tab.
Did you set your APN for Bell?
I bet you didnt!
It might sound dumb but I really don't know how to do this more over I hope that it's something that I we've look with the Bell's tech???
**edit** looking under ''edit access point'' all field seem ok except for user name, password and server which all show as ''not set''

Bell APN
Press the Menu key

check to back sure it is the same, then reboot tab and test.
rmanaudio : My APN was already setup the same way as in your reply. I did add a new one again using the same values, rebooted and still nothing.
Try creating a second APN in that menu, call it anything you want.. just ensure it has a Name and an APN value inside (the rest can be blank).
Then move the radio button selector to the new APN you created.
Wait 30 seconds, then move the radio selector back to the Bell APN.
If your Bell account is properly set up to allow a data connection, you should see 3G appear at the top.
If not, call Bell back, ensure data is enabled on your account.
Problem solved!!
Well, case closed, everything's working perfectly now The lady who did the activation of my SIM card in the 1st place forgot to check the ''tablet'' option for the SIM card
Just sad that I've lost so much time on the phone with Bell's tech support and nobody ever look there.
Now I need to download/reinstall everything I had

[Q] unlocked tmobile hd2 no data connection??? please help

i have a tmobile hd2 and its carrier unlocked i am using it with ATT and i just recently lost all data connection to my phone. i have an unlimited data plan that was working perfect until just recently. no internet or mms not even weather!! only can use wifi. can anyone help? thanks
Have you tried
*#*#4636#*#*
dial this and then go to phone information.
Have you run the ping test?
Checked what Current Network says?
Checked to see if there is anything listed under =======DATA======= ?
Have you tried to put a friend's TMO sim in the phone to see if data is restored?
All the data you can provide could help solve your problem. As is, the problem might be a little ill defined.

If you are running Windows Mobile on your HD2 from the home screen touch onvStart Menu/Settings/Menu/All Settings/Connections/Connections. Then tiuch on the adcanced tab and then touch on Select Networks and make sure AT&T is the selected network. Also tiuch on the Task tab and select Manage Existing Connections. While on the Modem tab make sure AT&T is selected and under the Proxy Settings make sure the box beside "This network connects to the internet" is checked.
Ok if you are running Androud then go to Settings/Wirless & Networks make sure allow data connections box is checked. Also go to Networks/Vertualy private networks (VPN) and make sure your AT&T VPN is corrwct.
i have fixed the problem! i was running the tmobile 3.14 rom udate which sucked and i just flashed an energy rom and alll is working again thanks for the suggestions
Same Problem
Someone please help and know that I know little to nothing of technical terms! I have the same problem. I have a T-mobile Hd2 and had Android put on it. Right at first I had a data connection then all of a sudden-NO DATA. I'm so frustrated! I checked the setting for using the phone as data connection SEVERAL time. I can get wifi but no data otherwise. PLEASE HELP
Try:
Menu - Settings - Wireless and networks - Mobile network - Access Point Names - menu button - restore to defaults, and follow the simple instructions
This should place the latest APN from your carrier on to the phone - may need a soft reboot

Hi, I'm currently trying to get my T-Mobile HD2 to work properly on NTT docomo, a Japanese cell carrier. I moved here at the end of May and have been using a data-only SIM through bmobile, a provider that uses the same towers as NTT docomo and it worked perfectly, however I switched to a voice and data plan and now I have no data connection. Voice works fine though.
I followed nenol's steps and under =======DATA======= it says, "State: DcInactiveState disconnected with last try at 9:49PM fail because Activation Reject GGSN" What now? Ha

[Q] Can't send/recieve MMS with wifi on - TMO

I've been reading different things everywhere about this and I still can't find a solution. I also had this issue on my S3 with a custom ROM on there.
I just got the Nexus 4 and I flashed PA3.96 on it, great rom. Everything works fine. I just am unable to send or receive MMS with wifi on. Once I turn it off, it's fine.
I've tried both stock and GoSMS and neither can download or send out MMS.
Can someone direct me to the solution for this? I'm on T-Mobile and the APN settings are correct, checked it with a stock S3 and they're the same.

Just to be clear, are you trying to send MMS over wifi or you just cant send them while wifi is enabled?
edit: didn't see you already mentioned the carrier.
T-Mobile and Verizon usually don't send MMS via the Wi-Fi Network, you must be on 3G (in my experience)

I'm just trying to send a MMS anyway, my previous phone(s) on tmo, with wifi enabled, would be able to send the mms regardless. But I would see the wifi signal still on, and then also the 3G symbol come up because it can't send it over wifi, but it would know when to switch to 3G/4G.
If that makes sense.

I believe I understand. When you are on wifi, even with 3/4G coverage your Texts do not send? Mine work just fine on Tmobile. What app are you using to try and send your text message? Or is it only ones that have an image in them?
Not quite, so I keep my wifi on as much as I can (connected to networks) and I also never turn my data off (3G/4G). With my S3, stock, I can have my wifi on (connected) and my 3G/4G on, and be able to send/receive MMS like normal.
With my Nexus, with my wifi and data on, I'm unable to do either. I have to turn off my wifi to be able to send/receive MMS. Texting is fine either way.

Check your APN settings. They should be:
Name: T-mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,admin,mms,hipri
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Everything else should say: "Not Set", or "None"
Save those settings and then reboot your phone to test
I'm pretty sure mine is set exactly like that, other than the APN type, there are a few I don't have on mine. I'll test and let you know.
Seems to be working now, adding those to the APN type made it work. Now just an issue with GoSMS, but that's a different story.
That's interesting..the only thing I added was admin and hipri under APN type, and it seems to be working now.
So, this was working fine until today, I wanted to try out one of the hybrid LTE modems. MMS is still working, but I can't send/receive with wifi on again. Practically the same settings as the epc APN other than the different LTE strings.
Anyone else experiencing this?
