Hey Everyone,
Just got my Locked Rogers Captivate yesterday and have been trying to figure out how to get data working with the Fido network...
These settings seem to work for my phone:
* Name: fido
* APN:wap.fido.ca
* Proxy: 205.151.011.011
* Port: <Not Set>
* Username: fido
* Password: fido
* Server: <Not Set>
* MMSC:mms.fido.ca
* MMS Proxy: 205.151.11.13
* MMS Port: 80
* MCC: 302 (retrieved from SIM)
* MNC: 370 (retrieved from SIM)
* Authentication type: none
* APN type: internet + mms
Browser works good with these settings.
For some reason though I can't search the Andriod market any suggestions?
Hope this helps,
Ryan
these settings are for 2G...
my settings:
Name: fido internet
APN: internet.fido.ca

Leave All other Settings Blank

APN: mms.fido.ca
MMSC: http://mms.fido.ca
MMS Proxy: 205.151.011.013
APN Type: mms + 3g
Leave All other Settings Blank/or like they were
if it still doesn't work... enable DATA ROAMING, and it'll work.

Are you using a fido sim card? It's weird that it works without unlocking the phone. First thing I suggest is to download the sgs unlock app and unlock the phone. There's no reason not to really.
Dont't use the wap apn. Explains why the browser only works.
This works with mine:

I just combine it as internet + mms to make things simpler.
Try this one first though:

Update me on which works please!
I'm using internet.fido.ca and it works fine for me. I haven't tried the .apn one yet. I'll give it a try once I finish calibrating the battery.

Hey,
I thought the "sgs unlock app" only works on the at&t branded captivate... is that not the one click program?

I called fido and read forums and I've been informed that you will not get extra charges. Not sure why you have to check roaming for rogers captivate though.
On a different note I'd like to share my experience with 2 different internet apns provided. "Fido 3G+ +MMS" gave me about 2k/0.3k for speed test while "fido internet" gave me 5k/2k in dl/upload speeds. I'm running axura beta 2. Can anyone confirm?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
Awesome. Very nice to know.
Will try and post my findings on speed as soon as i get to test the different APNs.
[EDIT]
I'm also getting similar speeds from "Fido 3G+ +MMS" (2.8k/0.35k).
From fido internet : 4.5k/0.2k
Also checked with a colleague here who is on rogers on an x10: he's getting around 3.5k down and 1k up!!! crazy upload speed.
tested with speedtest.net's app
same here,
tried use both 1)mms + internet, and 2) internet only, seems internet only can get better result on both upload and download speed, using speedtest.net app
Hey im in the exact same boat, got a rogers captivate and tryin to use it on the fido network. the sgs unlock pro app (available in market for $5, but worth it imo) worked perfectly for me and is very user friendly, it requires root tho, i used the z4root.apk to root my phone. here's the thread for it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
I was just trying to connect thru the fido auto find XD data did not work at all... txt and calling did tho, even before i unlocked it.
thanks a billion yungster89, that was exactly what i needed to get her working
i noticed when i use that APN tho, that the 3G data transfer icon will stay up, but if i try to use any data it will switch to an H logo, i assume this is for HSPA? but when i did a speedtest using the speedtest app, i only got 1.5 mbps while on my iphone 3gs (which had the exact same data plan/sim card on it) i got ~3.0 mbps down rate. any idea what would cause that? i thought HSPA was quite a bit faster than 3g?
Apn locked htc desire
Hi....
Maybe someone can help.
My apn is locked on my htc desire.
I cant edit and I can't add a apn.
It is a Vodaphone handset.
What cracks are available?
I just figured these out today through trial and error. I got the original settings from my ATT Samsung Infuse and went from there, after trying all kinds of info from the net that didn't work.

After you enter this make sure you hit menu and SAVE the settings!!!
I was able to send texts to email addys and download/receive pics after I put these APN settings in. There was a slight delay at first but I restarted my phone. Now, it works with no problem.

No 3G on Sensation XE with AT&T
Hello I just rooted my HTC Sensation XE and i am very happy to have it, but there is one problem I live in New York city and I do not get 3G, it works on my Xperia play fine but not on my sensation. I also heard that the default radio uses 850 band which AT&T uses and I was wondering is there was a rom that would free up the 850 band?
Thank you in advance!

Never going to work on AT&T 3G. The 850 band on this device is for 2G (GSM GPRS EDGE) only.
Bands:
GSM (2G) - 850, 900, 1800, 1900
UMTS (3G) - 1700, 2100, 1900
guess i have to choose aether a new phone or a new phone company =[
any suggestions?
Unlock your xe and use it on Tmobile
Its unlocked and thank you for your help.

All of a sudden, the pta APN network is flawlessly working for me, wife and friend's Skyrockets. I'm in NYC, is it working for you guys?
"Working", meaning that it'll browse regular, full, non-mobile sites with no problems...
Is working for me with no problems since yesterday. Finally

Good find. Just pulled up Justin.tv and loaded just like it should. Interesting...
I"m still stuck with mobile only on most sites. Cnn loads full page, but engadget and most others forces mobile.
However justin.tv loads full and normal.
As is mine. After the customer service/in store crap I had to deal with yesterday for 4 hours regarding this "data lag" problem (as they so called it), this better last a good long time.
Same here juat tested it justin.tv worked and loaded no lag as did cnn.com thankfully i just got the skyrocket yesterday but the browser not.loading alot of pages was irritating and made the phone useless to me without wifi. Glad its working now westminster md

If you push menu settings wireless and networks mobile networks its access point names. And theres been an issue with the stock att apn not loading certin webpages but it seems to be corrected for the time being ( hopefully permanently) so if your not having this issue theres no reason to worry or change any settings

Figures, that's my luck.
I was bothered by the APN issues and ended up returning my SR and going back to the GS2 cause I figured it would take AT&T forever to fix the problem.
Now they go ahead and fix it that fast.
Major bummer.
Had to modify APN settings in Minneapolis/St. Paul
I'm a NOOB to Android, but not smartphones. I wanted to post this reply, because I found most of the information on XDA, but not all in one place. Hopefully this saves others much of the time that I've spent on it.
Issue: My brand new Skyrocket would not connect to AT&T data network from my home when it was sitting right next to my wife's Galaxy S2 that was connected to AT&T data network. NOTE: Minneapolis/St. Paul is non-LTE.
Troubleshooting:
1. Swapped sims -- Galaxy S2 still works; Skyrocket still doesn't work.
2. Factory reset Skyrocket (several times) -- Skyrocket still doesn't work.
3. Got online with AT&T support. Checked some settnigs. Factory reset. -- Skyrocket still doesn't work.
4. Per AT&T support, went back to AT&T store to exchange phone. At the store, AT&T person looked at my phone and turned off the WiFi that had automatically (and correctly) connected to their AT&T hotspot. Voila Skyrocket connected to 4G. Good news, but somewhat distrubing. So, I decided to keep it and work with it some more.
5. Back at home, 4G still working....until I turned on WiFi (which automatically turns off AT&T data network). BAM!! AT&T data network would not come on again, when I turned off WiFi.
6. Next morning a Google search brought me to posts on XDA where others were having issues with the AT&T data network and and MMS.
Root cause:
-APNs configured in my Galaxy S2 were **different** than the APN configured in my Skyrocket -- very much like the posts on XDA.
-AT&T said the PTA network is brand new and they're still working out the kinks." from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342159
-Also pulled some data from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1337171.html
Solution:
Short version -- added 3 APNs and selected one of them.
Long version -- New APN Configuration that is working on my Skyrocket

Can anyone put the PTA working apn its not working for me.
Running BeastMOD. try to set default but got 3g speed with it.
@saildiverdog
I had those apns listed here before from my own trial and errors in the OP of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342159 . But since then took them down after the PTA network started working for a lot of us. And the wap.Cingular/PTA or wap.cingular/phone combo stopped working. The strange part was that the phone combo worked for me and my wife's worked with the PTA combo. Since the original post of this thread, they stopped working and the PTA was up and running.
For the rest/future readers, what's your location where the default apn is not working for you?
Woke up today with no data. Rebuilding the APN fixed the issue. I live near nyc so my guess is lte rollout confused some devices

Is it possible to use any APNs for ATT&s data, like LTE or, HSPA+, or any other 3g/2g that would work? I am unlocked my sidekick recently and am only able to send/receive text and make/receive calls but can't find any working APNs.
:good: Thanks in advance.
Or point me to a thread for all of AT&Ts APNS for a thanks

AT&T uses a different kind of network for mobile data, I don't believe it's compatible. Compatible north american networks would be T-Mobile, Wind and Mobilicity.

Hi guys, when you have time would you throw an eye on this thread.Merry Christmas to everyone, how are you?
I just bought recently unlocked AT&T made in Korea LG optimus G pro e980
The kernel is of AT&T because when i start the phone i see the logo of AT&T mobile.
I am on Walmart Family mobile plan they are OVN of T-Mobile. I am on unlimited text,data,talk plan, it is included 2 GB of 3G data.
The android version of the phone is 4.1.2, baseband version APQ8064,MDM9X15m Kernel 3.4.0, build number JZO54K,software version E98010k
My APN settings are as follows, i tried the one from FAQ of family mobile too, but i still couldn't have 3G coverage.

On the top corner of the screen above the network coverage stays the letter "E" (EDGE) and the internet is very slow!
I've seen they are many AT&T brand applications are installed on the device like: at&t drive mode, at&t Locker, at&t Navigator e.t.c.
Please guys what you would suggest me what i have to do. Do i need to root, to unlock the boot loader, or to change the base bands to get the 3G coverage or what? I would be thankful if you answer me with links or step by step what i have to do, because i am newbie in this area, i have experience in desktop pc, laptops, some software and hardware knowledge, i am mint in smartphones.
ck.
I live now in Bryans Road, Maryland this area is 3G covered i already checked.
When i search on networks in the phone i also see signals from AT&T antennas like AT&T RAT:14,3,2 and three for Family mobile.
Thank you. Mr. Stark recommend me to change the preferred network to 3G or LTE in settings, i am still trying to find where is that in my phone, but can't find it
