The correct path is:
Settings > Connections > More Networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names

Shoot, typo. All the same - not there.

You didn't tell what rom you are using. But I guess you are using a custom. As a stock rom should have that settings.
Anyway try this: install Shortcut Master app, open the Menu > Search, enter 'apn' or 'apnsetting' to search.
Finally tap on the search result (if any) to open.

Thanks for the info!
I'm actually using stock ROM and no, it doesn't have that setting.

Try "com.android.settings.ApnSettings" instead.

Evil verizon strikes again... I tried that as well.

Yea. Even changing these settings (MMS Port to 8080) didn't prevent Adblock Plus from blocking my outgoing MMS messages.

[SOLVED] Problem with Manila?

Hi guys,
I hope this is the correct forum for my question:
I've got a weird problem with my own cooked roms:
If I use Manila, and go to Settings tab -> try to go to 'all settings', it shows my Connections-screen (with My ISP on it etc).
Now I cannot reach the rest of the Settings.
Can somebody help me?
I've tried lots of things, but I can't seem to fix it.

You want this registry key (if you're using 6.5):
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"IsWM6.5"=dword:1

This is my suggestion:
1. Goto the Ext Manila_core_2_5_xxxxxx and open the app.reg inside the "0409" folder.
Edit the following registry to be like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo]
"HideSettings"=dword:0
This will enable the WM6.5 settings icon in the start menu
2. Goto the EXT Settings_Improvement_x_x_xxxxxxxx and open the app.reg.
Edit the following registry to be like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo]
"HideSettings"=dword:0
It will do the same as above
3. Inside Settings_Improvement_x_x_xxxxxxxx open the "files"folder and delete the "settings.lnk"
This will delete the HTC settings icon that sends you to the Settings Tab, which IMHO is stupid.
Cook your Rom and flash it again.
Hope it Helps
Thanks guys, I'll try this tonight.
Thanks, it worked!

So what do I download for Fresh 2.0d?
No he isn't using that dialer. Download from aloyious or something like that. Pull it from that Rom.

unzip the rom.zip

contacts.apk just copy/paste it to sdk tools.
adb remount
adb shell
push contacts.apk /system/app
exit
adb reboot
Thanks...
One more thing. Will I see it immediately or will I have to select it like with the AOSP keyboard?
I'm so close. I pushed the file, now I just need to use the dialer. How do I select it?

Try going to Settings>Applications>ManageApps and clearing the data for "dialer" and "People"(the one that has a phone icon)
Edit: I'm running Fresh's as well and it works for me. If that doesn't work clear them again and goto "Contacts" under ManageApps and clear data/defaults. that should fix it
Cleared the data
GOT IT! Tried it a second time and it worked!
I just installed didn't have to do anything extra just pushed the apk,rebooted,and then pressed phone. It asks which one you would like to use(phone/contacts). If not id say clear the defaults like stated above.

Can someone help me with this.....

Main Settings in Start Menu instead of Manila settings
How can i register tweak this.....
PLS HELP......
Hmm, I know this is possible but unfortunately I have installed a custom rom which already has this functionality and I cant seem to find the setting that enables/disables it.
if you go to the manilla settings and click menu> All settings you will get the windows mobile settings window.
I will try and find this information somewhere.

If you cannot make it work with bsb, then just use the way around...
Hit start -> settings -> menu -> advanced, and there you go

Things looks right on my phone...
If I start from the beginning,
I update my phone's rom with vanilla -> format everything -> configure my live account -> install bazaar -> install marketplace config -> give root to marketplace config -> change OEM marketplace -> turn off / turn on.
Am I missing a step?

using mobile data with international sim card

Hi,
So I'm abroad right now with my unlocked sprint s4. I can use the sim card to call and sms without any problem, but I don't have access to data, eventhough my plan includes it!
also,when going to system update-->uicc unlock, it says:"mobile data not available"....what does it mean? How can I resolve it and define my apn settings???
This is so annoying for such an expensive device and a "world" one!
Please help....
Thanks!

My phone is rooted...the question is: do I have to flash a customized rom over the stock rom in order to gain access to this option? In the stock rom sprint/Samsung eliminated this option, you can't change the apn manually!
I'd really appreciate if you can help or if someone knows if a customized stock (also recommend which one is better) can get/let me access these apn settings.
Thanks!

Hi,
Had the exact same issue and got it fixed ..
here is how..
if your phone is already rooted..
open play store :
Download any APN database (i use HiAPN ) .. install
use titanium back up(PRO) to make that a system app.
if PRO version not available use root explorer to move the .apk to system/data..
Restart Phone.. SU will pop-up allow .. and Voila!!!
First post helping someone .. please do let me know how it goes ..

Hi,
I'm going to try it now, but didn't completely understand: Can I do it over the stock sprint rom? I prefer to leave it as is right now, and not add/replace with a customized rom...
Where do I find this apn database? Can I edit it with my local carrier apn settings?
Also, How do I use the titanium backup app to make the apn database to an app?
Isn't the HiAPN an app to begin with?
Also, Do you have the "sprint" s4 as well?
will this work with any apn tweaking program or database?
Thanks!

What does the "#0011#" do?
I'm really at loss and frustrated with the stock rom of sprint and the strange stuff they/Samsung did with the phone...
Is there a way to fix it without installing some customized ROM?

Hi,
1. I'm afraid to do a factory reset, as it will (most likely) cancel the "unlock" sprint done for us, won't it????
2. What is this USSD/MMI fix app.... just checked it, and it looks like some safety issue, not something that will allow/let me do a "speed dial" with a * before the number
