Fuze ims.cingular?

I did a google search, and couldnt come up with anything.
My Fuze randomly changes from wap.cingular to ims.cingular in the internet settings, and it ends up not being able to connect to the internet. This is draining my battery during the day, since I think my email keeps trying to connect throughout the day, but it doesnt work.
Once I go back to the settings and change it back to wap.cingular, everything works fine.
Anyone know whats up? And anyone know if I can fix this?
Thanks

I do believe you can just remove the ims.cingular settings if they aren't working for you.. .but on ATT both of mine work....?

p.s. - i will check and get back soon!

Its not an IMS setting...my MEdia net "account" setting switches to ims.cingular when in the past with my unlocked phones Ive used wap.cingular.

did you put your sim card into an iphone??? i had the same thing happen to me, it got real annoying. i just called in and made sure there was nothing iphoney on my account. they said there wasn't. i had to keep changing the settings manually after every soft reset, and the problem randomly went away after a few days... something else odd i noticed was that the youtube app and PIE dont work...

Did you install the modified Slide 2 Answer phone canvas? I had this issue after I installed that dialer.

Nope to both of those.
I just went in the settings ind put wap.cingular as the access point name, and wap.cingulargprs.com as the username, and whatever it was as the password (as opposed to just leaving it blank like some sites say)...I'll see if the problem comes back tomorrow.

Leave the username and password blank

This exact same thing has been happening with me as well. I'm on the stock AT&T rom but the only thing I've done is go through the custom setup guide for 'noobs' as provided by tyguy in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459335
I don't know if this helps anyone figure out what's causing the issue or not but just wanted to toss that out there.

Driving me crazy
I'm having the same issue and its driving me crazy. I actually have it switch to two different settings; my original, working settings are:
ap: wap.cingular
u: CINGULARGPRS
p: CINGULAR1
When it switches it it either changes the ap to ims.cingular (and possibly erases the username or password), or it leaves the ap as wap.cingular but changes the username to [email protected].
I've installed S2U2 and turned on the slide to answer feature, if that makes a difference, otherwise i'm running a stock AT&T ROM with normal applications installed.
Anyone have any ideas?

have you ever been able to tether via Bluetooth using those settings (CINGULARGPRS and CINGULAR1) in your dial-up connection setup on your computer, or do you just do USB?
i have not tried these but i have tried [email protected] and CINGULAR1 as folks on these boards suggest, as well as leaving both blank (AP is wap.cingular in both cases) per AT&T's advice (http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-...le=en_US&_dyncharset=UTF-8&solutionId=KB41984)
no success in either case so, i'll give these a try...

Some other correct settings ( May help...not sure )
APN - wap.cingular
User - [email protected]
Pass - CINGULAR1
APN - wap.cingular
User - [email protected]
Pass - CINGULAR1
APN - isp.cingular
User - [email protected]
Pass - CINGULAR1
APN - isp.cingular
User - [email protected]
Pass - CINGULAR1
These all work for me , and depending on the area im in , one may be faster than the other. I also will note the the isp.cingular is generally for the PDA Tethering plans , and may or may not work for people ( Some say they dont have the plan and it still works )
Hope this helps someone

thanks, pyraxiate, i will try every one of these again!
by the way, which dial-up number are you using?
i've tried several with no success:*99#, *99***1# , and *99***3# (at&t says the latter is for Samsung phones)...
i also tried dialing these numbers directly from my Fuze, and got a pop-up msg saying "function anavailable".. are you able to dial any of these numbers directly from your phone, do you hear any modem tone?
this is so strange that everything works when i tether via USB but nothing works via Bluetooth!

try deleting the media net setting "account" all together and then re-setting it up again. that might help...?

Internet Settings help please for "Einstein Wireless"

Hi Everyone...
A few days ago I got a really good deal on a AT&T Fuze... I have long had my AT&T branded Tilt/Kaiser and had no problems using it what-so-ever. After playing with it a few days, I have done everything to it from HardSPL to rom to radio..... I have decided on NRG 's Energy.RAPHAEL.21889.StandardM2.5_27.Jan.2010 rom. This rom works great, has the features that I wanted, and looks nice too . I got the full rom which has a network setup that seemed pretty inclusive, but to no suprise, did not have mine, "Einstein Wiress" in wisconsin. I have all the settings it took to make it work on my tilt along with the "instructions" I wrote myself to make it work...
I would really appreciate it if someone who already is using their Touch Pro from Einstein could share the settings, or what I am missing. If you have an idea, please feel free to share it. Here are the "instructions".
Name for connection : EinsteinPCS Internet
access poin name : apn (case sensitive)
Usename : (leave blank)
password: (leave blank)
domain : (leave blank)
...under advanced
Use Server assigned IP address
click ok..
under proxy settings check: "this network connects to the internet"
and "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
proxy server should be :192.168.254.251
click advanced
http: 192.168.254.251:8080
wap: 192.168.254.251:9201
secure wap: 192.168.254.251:9201
socks (blank)
For MMS... go into MMS Options... goto servers.. set these settings :
Server Name : Einstein Wireless MMS
Gateway : 192.168.254.251
Port # : 9201
Server Address : httP//www.einsteinmms.com\+1(your 10 digit # here)
Connect via : EinsteinPCS Internet
I hope this is enough.. Right now it now it show the "E" for Edge... (Einstein is a GPRS/Edge company, no 3G)// When I try to run a program ir "connects" and shows by the signal strength meter that I am connected... but every program gets nothing.. The weather, QuickGRPS, internet browsing, etc... All of these same programs are confirmed working with WiFi. I made sure everything is set to connect to the internet using "Einstein Wireless"... I have tried both transparent and non-transparent connections (I never had that option before) & I beleive I have tried all 3 of the the 9600 protocals in the advance settings... My tilt was set to chap (like AT&T)... If you have any questions feel free to ask...
Thank you in advance,
Teej

Ok Everyone!
After erasing all the internet settings again for the 5th time... I inputted everything in, made sure that 3G/UPSD options turned off, it seems to be working this time.. No idea what I did diffrent this time than all the others, but it works.. That is what matters... Thank you to all those who offered help via PM or in the forums...

Default ATT APN?

Anyone know what it is? I had mine set to Tmobile now I have no idea how to change it back (I think I've discovered a problem with MMS not sending when it's set on Tmobile APN... Just have to change it back to verify this).

I turned off boot emulation and it restored it after a reboot.
For other people, the default ATT APN is 310410.
I'd highly not recommend using Market Access to emulate it on boot.
Seems to have prevented some emails (data) from sending, as well as not allowing my MMS to send (but oddly enough... browsing and stuff still worked- which is why it took me so long to figure it out because it appeared data was working).

That is not the APN, that is the SIM card number.
The APN is how the network connects:
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank
Port: leave blank
Username:[email protected]
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: leave blank

310410 is AT&T network id.
Captivate also suffers from MMS problem if your phone is using 2G/EDGE.

I did not know about the MMS problem but being on 3G it works fine. What the heck...

Thanks for the info nbs11.
That saved me a lot of time.
Peace

What problem does it have with mms in 2g? Mine works just fine.
Sent from my Captivate using XDA-APP

Doesn't really matterrs any more. JH7 update fixed it.
It won't send MMS on EDGE when picture size > 100KB.

[Q] wifi tether not working

Wifi tether not working, is anybody else having problems

I take it you've rooted and disabled the entitlement check, right? If that's all you did, it should work just fine. I did it within 5 mins of buying my A2.

this is true others have reported it not working something to with the dhcp server but i have had no issues at all with mine it connects transfers data and doles out 192.168 adresses

I wanted to download the Wireless tether for Root Users app but in the marketplace, I see a message saying "This item is not available on your carrier". My carrier is AT&T. I looked at a couple more wifi tether apps and I see the same message instead of a Download button. Is there any other way I can setup tethering?

How do you disable the entitlement check? There's not much info on the web concerning the atria 2.
Thanx!

Disable entitlement didn't work for me, but im on gophone and not postpaid.
EDIT: I was wrong I did have to disable entitlement, apparently the first APN I used to enable data was incorrect to also have tethering. So for gophone entitlement still needs to be disabled but use the APN below.
I found this out after a factory reset and apparently I must not have saved the entry in the entitlement box the first time around. Talk about a noob-like mistake! BUT gophoners still need the APN below:
All I did is create a new apn with the following data:
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: leave blank
Port: 80
Username: [email protected] *must be all caps
Password: CINGULAR1 *must be all caps
Server: wireless.cingular.com
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentecation Type: leave blank
APN Type: Leave Blank
APN Protocol: IPv4
Make sure you put the tick in this APN after you create so it uses it instead of the default, I don't know if this will affect 4G.
For the lapdock to allow mobile network connectivity, turn you mobile hotspot on before connecting your phone to the dock. You will get the dialog box saying you need wifi or an alternate plan, but firefox will now run without adding tethering.
Note we do not have 4g where I live and I do not have a postpaid account. When I got my Atrix 2 and put my sim in I had no data and had to make an APN to make data work at all. While trying to make my lapdock 100 work on the mobile network, I ended up using these settings to do it. The entitlement disable method did not work for me, since my prepay is not provisioned for the same as the post paid accounts.
If nothing else this will show some prepay folks how to enable tethering.

AT&T APN for media content

Hey All,
I bought a Bell (Canada) HTC 8X C625a for use on AT&T and put my sim in, ran connection setup and all was working well. That said, now I've just noticed that when someone sends a text with media, I get a text saying "Get media content now (xKB)". When I touch the link, I get nothing but the same message over and over. I'm assuming AT&T is using a different APN than connection setup installed.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

That was not as easy as I thought... So first I got on chat with AT&T and they started out OK but ended saying they don't support unlocked phones of any kind. Then I went all over the net and found so much conflicting and useless info. Finally, I went to HTC and they've been pretty damn good over the past 4 days or so. I just can't believe that no one has had this problem before. Anyway, here are the instructions if you ever find yourself in this situation;
Start off by going to Settings>Mobile Network(or equivalent by carrier). Tap on add Internet APN. Fill out the APN with "pta" then click the save icon.
Next, click on Add MMS APN. This time, fill out the following information; Anything not below, leave blank.
Access Point Name: pta
WAP Gateway (URL): proxy.mobile.att.net
WAP Gateway port: 80
MMSC address: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
Once again, click on the save icon and you're done.
Hope this can help someone else in the same position. :good:
Good luck.
