No APN menu on my phone - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Just got the phone, rooted it. Its working, I can make calls but I wanted to get the APN correct
I goto settings and click on more. I dont see any menu for APN... Anybody else have this issue? Axon 7 U model
Correction... I found it.
You have to goto
Dual Sim settings, slide all the way down to Mobile networks then click on Access point Names. To create an new APN you have to click on the + button at top right and fill in all the blanks according to the Cell phone company you are using the phone with then you have to save the APN
BTW the phone choose to create its own APN, Im guessing from the SIm card I inserted, and its working fine. Same settings the ATT website says to use. Good signal.

Settings > Dual SIM Settings > Others: Mobile Networks > (sim slot) > Access Point Names

As a follow up question regarding APN.... Does anyone know the proper one for Verizon? I have 4 come up(2x2of the same)

HD2 APN settings

Where do you add new APN settings? I went to all settings/connections/connections but don't see any place to insert all the APN settings..?
Original post:
HD2 noobie here. Have it unlocked on AT&T. Phone/SMS all work fine. I don't get any internet(mail, facebook, marketplace, etc.) unless I'm on wifi. I realize being on AT&T I can only get edge(which is fine). I've been on a tmobile phone(G1 on edge prior to getting this phone) since last year with no problems. I figured it was my sim card. I took my old G1 and put my sim in there, works no problems. Also put a different sim card under my account(my dads) in my HD2, same problem. I've narroed it down to the HD2 itself but I have no clue what could be keeping it from getting on edge/internet.
I get a 'Cannot COnnect'' error that says:
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufactuerer's documentation and try again.

Then after hitting 'Dismiss' I see:
Network problem
Make sure your Internet connection is active and check wether other applications that rely on the same connection are working

Any idea? Maybe someone with AT&T has seen this problem before.
Cheers
Your APN settings are wrong; if you have a TMOUS or Telstra HD2 it won't have AT&T settings on it, you need to create new connection profiles with AT&T settings.
I'm assuming it uses the same APN settings as my G1 on AT&T did? But where the heck do I enter new APN settings at on this phone?
I've looked everywhere for APN settings. Can anyone help please?
settings - all settings - connections - connections
I have tried that and saw NOTHING about APN settings.
updated title. still can't figure this out. surely there are AT&T users on here that had to do this

settings tab - menu - all settings - connections - connections - add a new modem connection - name - cellular line(gprs) then fill in the rest with the at&t access point name and such like.
Then, when you have the modem created, go back to the connections - connections screen, jump to advanced tab, click select networks - and set the top option to your at&t data you just set up.

Please help me set up the APN for t-zones and mms. I have a T-Mobile unlocked HD2 that I flashed to android. I went to settings-wireless & networks-mobile networks-access point names. When I hit Access Point Names, there are no options in it, just a black screen with APN on top so I cannot add anything. How do I set up my T-mobile MMS and t-zones settings? I looked everywhere and could not find a solution. Please help!!!!

Mobile data not working

I just purchased YU Yureka. My mobile service provider is Idea, region Maharashtra. I am using single sim. But when i turn on mobile data then that does not activated and not showing any symbol of data on top of mobile screen. What is gprs setting?
Goto settings > mobile networks > access point names > touch the 3 dots (menu) on the right top > reset to default.
Also
Goto settings > sim cards > data connection > touch & select ur sim.
Configure APN manually of not set automatically

Go to Settings>Mobile Netwroks>Access Points Names> Then click on plus icon on top right and type "internet" (exclude quotes) in APN. Type any Name and save it. Then select this setting. It should work now.

unlocked spring Gy ls993 no internet on verizon

hi,
trying to use my unlocked ls993 in Verizon. voice and text work, but no data. the apn setting is missing all together, so can not add apn.
when putting in a tmobile sim, the apn appears and I can add t apn and data works.
any suggestions to make the v apn appears?
thanks.
I can help, go to your dialer and from there type *#546368#*993#
Then navigate to field test then navigate and there should be the second option. Go to pdp and then apn then you can add it from there.

Code not working on my LS993, but thank you for trying to help Still looking for the code for this model.
So just found out the code that worked in my LS993 is:
5689#*993#
(credit: https://idealkaynak.net/lg-g6-hidden-menu-kodlari/)
With that I added xfinity mobile apn. Once saved I had data, but was connected with 3G only, with DL speed of 0.8MPS. I was not happy, thought reboot the phone might make it better. Rebooted, then I lost data connection altogether; call and text still work, no apn in control but with the hidden menu access I see my apn is still there.
So I am stuck again. Any suggestions? Is there anyway I can force the g6 to load "carrier settings" of some sort?
Hi, did you find a way to add the APN. I have the same issue.
same problem
i have the same problem and checking on other post a guy says that you have to enter on hidden menu and apn settings and there are two options edit and view. chose edit and erase all apn including otasn after that have to appear in the normal mobile network menu the three dots to add the apn of your cellphone company. but you need the msl code or service code.
any suggestions of how to get the msl code and try this ?
i have an LG G6 LS993ZVA NOUGHAT FROM SPRINT.

No 4g connection

My S7 edge won't connect to 4g on 1 carrier but on other it will. Why is that, before it worked but not anymore. I have correct CSC and change to LTE mode. But still no connecting.
hi
do you have an*APN?
you need to add an Access Piont Name (APN) in order to get access to the cellular internet connection.
to add an APN you have to do this:
go to the*Settings > connections > mobile networks > Access Piont Names
if there's an APN already there, then the problem is not about APN. but if you see no APNs installed, hit the add button and make an APN manually. the name and the APN field must not be empty. type something in them and let all of the other fields untouched

Restart network with ADB commands

On OP5 we have dual SIM. I use two SIMs from two providers and I want to change only default mobile data provider when I'm on a specific location.
I tried with:
Code:
adb shell settings put global multi_sim_data_call 2
If I check with
Code:
adb shell settings get global multi_sim_data_call
, I get value 2. I have checked also on phone (Settings -> SIM & Network -> Mobile data) and it really changed. So command works.
BUT - the phone still shows and uses the previous setting.
Any idea how to force the phone to restart network or something similar?

Why not using the quick settings toggle on oos for changing data sim? Or do you use another rom?

My main idea is changing a data SIM with Tasker. My first provider has bad coverage in my valley and I want to change it automatically.
On the other hand - I'm on OOS, but how do you mean using the quick settings toggle? Can I (at least) create a shortcut for this settings? I didn't find that.

You need to add this toggle to your quick settings menu
Tnx. This should be good enough for now. I don't know how I missed this icon.
Well, maybe I thought that this will change default SIM card for calling and SMS, but it works as I want - just change default "mobile data".
