MMS and Aurora - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Hello there,
I have the latest Aurora ICS version, but when I enable mobile data and try to download MMS, nothing happens, I simply can't transfer them.
Any ideas how I can fix this?
Thanks a lot, it would really help.

Do you have the mms profile properly configured according to your network provider(APN)? And did you make sure your data is really enabled in the settings->mobile networks?

Mobile data is on, yes, but I'm not sure about the apn thing. How can I do that?

Just google "APN MMS yourprovider". Take an example and fill it in. Report back if it works

yep exactly after that you just need to go to settings->mobile network-> access points names and create a new option with the settings that you obtained from the web. or you could just call your service provider and ask for the mms apn or profile

Do you have Telkilla (sp) listed as an APN under settings? If so I've read where that can cause issues with MMS. If you do have that selected just delete it and use the T-Mobile ones.

T-Mobile Data
My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
just go into Menu > Settings > wireless and networks > mobile networks > access point names, then hit menu and "reset to default" and make sure that the T-Mobile Data is selected after. Then turn off the phone and turn it back on ... the MMS in and out will now start working.
Just got this from t-mobile customer service: go to Menu > Settings > wireless and networks > mobile networks > access point names, then click on T-Mobile Data and make sure you have the entry for MMSC, "htt ://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc" without the quotes. (Don't forget http instead of "htt" in the address. It didn't allow me to post otherwise)
Hope this helps!
I had the same problem. Was it "Generic Network Error"?. The reps at T-Mobile said it was due to the software version, which should have been upgraded to 2.2.1
i was looking for the solution for this too!
Please post questions in Q&A section. Thank you

did the steps covered in the posts and I still can't send. I entered the htt...address and even factory reset (because I wanted 7 screens). Nothing allows me to send MMS yet.
I have not been updated. Just got my phone yesterday.
EDIT:
I must point out that under T-Mobile Data I have the following showing 'not set':
Proxy
Port
Username
Password
Server
MMS Proxy
MMS Port
Authentication Type
I'm guessing that might be my issue? I don't know if these settings were to take place with the 2.2.1 update or if there is a way to get them all entered before that. I don't even know if there is supposed to be anything in there. I manually entered the address in the MMSC. If I didn't, that would say 'not set' as well.

All I did was reset to default and made sure T-Mobile Data was selected. Works like a charm (provided I have good network connection)
My default settings are:
Name: T-Mobile Data
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy through MMS Port: Not Set
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication Type: Not Set
APN type: default,supl,admin,dun

Nothing, I deleted mine and everything works fine.
Wow this helped a lot. But how in the heck did I get telkila anyways.

Apn is not working

My nexus one after root APN is not working. Any idea! Please help.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Do you use market enabler? When I set T-Mobile settings in market enabler, all the APN settings switches to T-Mobile. When I restore settings from Market enabler, or reboot my device, Everything goes back and my provider APN settings comes back (I am on Cyanogenmod, only need to choose correct default APN, since my provider has different packets with different access points and then it remains).

A little more info might be useful.
What provider are you on? What is your current APN set up? What ROM are you using (stock or otherwise)? What method did you use to root? As asked by dolphin777, do you have any apps installed that would impact the APN settings?
My issue was I had numbers in the apn when it should just be two lines. Cbw, wap.gocbw.com

Nexus s decided today was good to lose data

My nexus s lost data connection today and it won't turn back on. Even after reset. Anyone else had this?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Maybe check if something's happened to the APN settings / if they have been disabled?
Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Network Settings
What am I looking for? I havent changed anything?

Sounds like a network issue, you need to call your carrier.

well .. if your phone didn't need any additional configuration for APN during your very first use, then I guess, as princeasi just mentioned, you might have to check with your network operator for help..
the reason why i told tht you might have to define the APN settings is because, for me, I had to manually add the APN, username /password in order to get access to my carrier's data network ...
maybe you could browsing on this link: http://modmyi.com/wiki/index.php/Carrier_APN_Settings#Italian_Networks
for APN settings..
that link is meant to help configure iPhone APN settings (Android has a lot more parameters to define) .. but the details shud still work with your NexS
(for eg. all settings for my carrier were the same as what were already on my phone by default.. the only thing i had to configure manually was the u/name, password and APN name)
Hope that helps...
I let it auto reconfigure everything and it came back .. not sure what happened

Seperate apn for data and mms aosp/cm7

Is it possible to create a separate APN for MMS? Im not sure it is possible for aosp/cm7 roms, but like they do with sense, I would like to split apart the APN so i have one for data and one for mms. Im thinking if i disable the data, i can still send mms, but have data turned off.
Does this make sense? if it does, does anyone know what the settings for this rom would be?
BTW - I am a noob with the APN stuff, and i did give it a shot, but epic fail.
Thanks ahead of time.
You can't. The APN gives you access to the data network, which also is the same route that the MMS uses. So if you shut off data, you shut off MMS.
Thanks, but it must be possible, they do out in the sense roms. If you turn off data you can still send mms

I know for royal ginger you can toggle the data off, and using wifi, with wifi calling turned on, mms will send. Hope that helps . Not sure about other roms. RG is best

Nope. I know how MMS works with the network, because I work for T-mobile. MMS uses the exact same pipeline that the web uses. That's like asking how can I turn off data and still get Pandora to work by changing the apn. They both use the same route to get and send the info.
The option of using WIFI calling that was mentioned is the only other option.

Thank you for the explanation. So how do they do it with sense roms? Every sense rom I have used has the ability to turn off data and still send mms. Check it out... Let me know what you think...

How to turn mobile data on?

Hi,
I want to activate mobile data on my Nexus 4. I went "Settings"->"Wireless &networks"->Mobile Networks and selected an APN. Data is enabled in the menu as well. Still, when I enter Chrome i get "You are offline' message. Also, no other apps have data. Is there something I am doing wrong?
Thanks.
p.S. I have P.A.C Rom 23.0.0

Did you reboot the phone after saving the new APN, sometimes it needs a restart to set itself. Also check and make sure you entered all teh APN settings in correctly.

Yes. Also, searched on the internet and these settings seem to work for others.
I am starting to believe there is a problem in the ROM :-?

I don't use custom ROM's any more as I'm happy with vanilla android and have never had a problem with it. Go into the thread for the ROM you are suing and search to see if anyone else has the same issue. Could be a conflict with the kernel you're using maybe.
I'd be willing to bet your APN is not correct. Where are you located and what carrier are you with? I just went through the same issue with my wife's phone on ATT&T Straight Talk service, it was a PITA to get data.

I am located in Romania and I am on Vodafone. I will go to them and see if the app is not correct. If it is I mai change the kernel. Using Frank right now.
