Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9000) MMS/Internet Settings for AT&T (APN)

For those of you that are using the true unbranded/unlocked Galaxy S from the UK here in the states, here are the MMS/Internet settings.
Go to Settings/Wireless and network/Mobile Networks/Access Point Names
Hit the menu button, then "new APN". The settings are as follows:
Name: AT&T (or whatever name you like)
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank (Will read: <not set>)
Port: leave blank (Will read: <not set>)
User name: [email protected] (Not sure if it's case sensitive, but I left it all capital letters)
Password: CINGULAR1 (Not sure if it's case sensitive, but I left it all capital letters)
Sever: leave blank (Will read: <not set>)
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: none
APN type: internet+mms
I initially started researching this after I wasn't able to send or receive MMS. I could send regular text messages just fine though. I read posts all over the place and none of them were really defnitive in regards to the Galaxy S' settings. I tried some configurations that would allow me to send and receive MMS, but then the Internet wouldn't work. In other cases I would get the Internet but no MMS.
So after putting it all together, and trying a bunch of different configurations, the above is what I've confirmed as working. Just wanted to share so others don't have to spend the time I did.
Hope it helps.

Maybe double post (if so i'm sorry)
Thanks for the settings. Just got mine today and it seemed to automatically get the settings. Compared to yours and this is what mine has (works for edge and mms)

Are you getting 3G on yours? Haven't been able to get 3G access yet here in Orlando. I understand that i'll only be able to get it in 1900 areas though (not sure if here is one). Any suggestions?

Yes I do get 3G on mine. My display pretty much constantly has an "H" near the signal indicator. I'm assuming that's for HSPDA.

Have you tested by sending a MMS to yourself?

hmm....let me try that next, but i did receive a few earlier today (dunno if that makes a difference). Just did my first battery drain so i'm letting it heal while i read up some more. As my first android device, i'm loving it!

Here would have an updated map with the band u need ...

I just noticed that I'm still kinda' hit and miss with receiving MMS. A friend of mine just tried to send me a short video from Verizon and it just says "downloading". It will probably remain like that for a while.
This MMS thing is getting frustrated. I also noticed this morning that I couldn't send an MMS to my friend that is on AT&T also. I knew I just sent an MMS earlier though and it worked. I sent one to myself and it worked. So what I did was look at the "To" field. I noticed that the one that worked had "1+" in front of the area code then number. One more frickin' thing to figure out!

@BuddyLee Thanks for the map. It looks like they have the 850/1900 combined into one color so I can't really differentiate if i'm only getting 850 here.
@TMW597 so i forced the phone to only connect using 3G..sure enough it came up. With the "H" as well but i get 1 measly bar of it so i must be on the outskirts of that 1900 broadcast. time to take a drive and see how it fares.

Glad to hear it! One bar is still 3G baby!!!
Cool app by the way. http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.sensorly.viewer

I probably shouldn't have darted out the door as soon as i finished typing my last post.
Found out that there's 1900 broadcasting to my NE only..went there and was brimming with 3G. http://twitpic.com/249wau (i should probably get a screenshot app)
of course this pic is after i got home and relegated back to edge and wifi thus the icon

On your Speed Test app, go to the settings tab at the top and change your display to display speeds in Mbps.
I use this for my screen grab app. You just shake the phone to capture the screen. I only turn it on when I need to use it though. I don't leave it on all of the time.

done...link updated

That looks to me like it's on WiFi. I see the WiFi indicator on at the top of your screen shot. Turn the WiFi off and run it again.

now...onto rooting and more!

Damn your 3G is blazin'!!!

EDIT: Oops, it seems I had to enable data roaming....

Thanks for posting this information! What type of data plan do you have on your at&t account?
I have the old mediamax 200 plan and I was wondering if I could get a Captivate from at&t and change the settings accordingly without changing my data plan.
Anyone with any helpful info please feel free to respond. Thanks!

Hi. TMW597. The "H" means you are on your "Home" network. If you were roaming, you would get a "R" for "Roaming".

Actually the 'H' to the left of your signal strength bars is for HSDPA not home. It designates that you are on 3.5G, if you were on UMTS you would see 3G instead of the letter H.

Working Simple Mobile Mytouch Slide MMS Settings?

I have tried all MMS settings for my Mytouch Slide for Simple Mobile, I can send just fine, but it will receive only some times. Can anyone post there working APN settings that they use.

If you are rooted with cyanogen.. go to
settings, cyanogen mod setting, performance settings
Make sure "Lock messaging app in memory" is Checked [yes]
(thats could be one problem..)

I been having the same problem with my slide. Did you find a solution?

My wife was recently deployed so we cancelled the mytouch 4g on tmo and they waved the $200 cancel. fee.
I have been reading on xda that several people use simple mobile with tmo phones, and their webpage says this phone is SUPPORTED. I called a local dealer today and was told that I did not have to UNLOCK the phone because its running on tmo when its on simple mobile.
He said people are NOT throttled unless they are tethering or downloading torrents/movies.
Do any of you use simple mobile? Specifically, do you use a mytouch 4g on simple mobile and would you recommend it. My understanding its rebranded tmo service.
I loved the mytouch 4g, but couldnt stomach the $83 a month. My current phone is a optimus v (sprint aka virgin for $60 a month unlimited everything) but why would I want to use this phone (which I can return as Ive had it less than 10 days, I have 30 days to return) when I have a 10x better phone my mytouch 4g...
Suggestions... comments? Complaints about simple mobile? Thanks!

1.8.3 HSPA/HSUPA/HSDPA APN Settings and Speeds

All,
I've read several instances and/or rumors of bandwidth capping with the 1.8.3 update. I even had the experience of losing my network data altogether until I figured out why.
As such I thought it may be helpful to start a thread for those on 1.8.3 that can provide: 1) radio version; 2) APN settings; and 3) download / upload speeds (on average). You can get the radio version via Settings >> About phone >> "Baseband version"; APN settings via Settings >> Wireless & networks >> Mobile networks >> Access point names; download / upload speeds via the speedtest.net application.
My information is as follows:
Baseband version: N_01.77.15P

The speedtest.net app has given me speeds all over the board. As high as 4.58Mpbs down and 1.58Mpbs up and others with just .2-.3Mbps up like before the update. Do I need to make some changes here?

Same and I never lose data and the speeds in Seattle are about 4.6 mbps DOWN and 1.x mbps UP.

I'm not sure I understand......but showing speeds isn't going to do much in the way of giving us a feel on what is going on. What I mean is download and upload speeds can vary by a very large standard, because it all depends on how many bars, what servers you're hitting, how many people are also using that node, etc.

Of course their different. You guys are looking at two different apn. The first person apn settings are from the regular att network setting. And the second person apn is from the att us hspda setting. And the speeds may be different because you need to have the 4g internet data plan on ur account in order in have the att us hspda apn.

I had no APN after SBFing, factory resetting, etc. so I had to make up an APN based on what I had seen in some places. I'll try the other APN in the thread and see if it makes a difference (better or worse).
Point of the thread really was to assess whether there was consistent limiting going on and if people suddenly lost data connectivity (as I did) they could fix via created one of these APNs.

Well... Technically an hspa plan shouldn't be needed, but since it's an At&t requirement, it absolutely is required. They can cap service capabilities anywhere they please, really.

Faster APN

Has anyone tried the APN settings for AT&T that were used for the SGS2? Its the same as our AT&T US HSDPA but it doesn't have any of the APN type settings. I gave it a try and am downloading at a constant 2Mbps faster (during regular traffic hours was getting 3.xxMbps now getting 5.xxMbps). Here's the link give it a try see if it works for all of us.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109983
To clear up some of the confusion this APN is for the faster AT&T H+ speeds if you don't have the backhaul in your area yet this will probably make no difference.
Now as far as what I did, I did not delete all my APN's like the link I posted said (since our APN's work) I just added a new one named it whatever I wanted then under APN put phone that's it. Since our phones don't have the "internet only" in a drop down you leave that blank and since we have an mms APN already you leave that part of the instructions out as well. Hope this helps with the confusion a bit.

That was the problem, thanks.

Doesn't work, It caps me at 4Mbps, the default gets me around 5-6Mbps.
edit: I just deleted the VPN type. I'm now getting 7Mbps at 3:30 am NY

Eh, I noticed a little jump. Not to the point that it's monumental, but around .8mbps.
to a total of 1.6mbps hahaha

It pretty unstable, I think someone in the GS2 topic said this.
I'll get 1Mbps in one test, and 10Mbps the next.

I actually have these settings already by default, I'm on OTA att stock GB...

Since you are on the OTA, could you list each field verbatim?

I have tested this time and time again with this APN I am hitting anywhere from 1-3Mbps (more like a consistent 2Mbps) faster and this is same test ran at the same time back to back with my phone im the exact same position every time. Now this APN is for faster AT&T H+ speeds if you don't have the backhaul in your area yet this will probably make no difference.

My speeds have always been 4 mbps + usually close to 5 and I have never modified apn settings. Guess its just location thing, depending on where u are.
