My Question is... Where (if possible) would i go to change network settings on an Android phone... I dont me WiFi.. I mean CDMA Network settings.... Settings that include the Username/Password used to connect to the Networks Internet
For verizon phones... Each has a specific Users Name and password for that account... Aswell as an ip Address to connect to the network with Port Number as well
Username: ____
Password:____
Ip Address
Primay ___:___:___:____
Secondary ___:___:___:___
Port: ___
Its for a Moto Droid (Verizon)... before on old Motorola Phones it use to be in the hidden WAP Settings dat was 0setup (073886) i think it was.. There it allowed you to change the homepage and login information for Internet Access.
Can i do something on Android that would allow me to change such settings?

OK i have a 750v from the UK and i use it with the Vodafone contract i got it with. I unlocked it so i can use it back home here in Cyprus when im here for the holidays etc but for some reason i cant get internet or MMS to work. I had found the settings off the Cytamobile-Vodafone (my phone provider, Cytamobile is owned by Vodafone now) website but they dont work.
So i called them (a few times) and they said they cant help me and the only thing they can do is send me a document with the settings written so that i can put them myself... I tried to several times but still nothing! The weird thing is that if i keep my Vodafone UK internet settings it works but i'm not sure if im going to be paying loads extra or not with those settings. MMS dont work either way.
--------------------------------------------------------
This is the: "Basic settings for WAP over GPRS" that i was sent
Account Name: cytagprs
Profile Name: cytagprs
Connect using
or Bearer Type
or Data bearer
or Packet: GPRS
APN
or GPRS access point
or Access Point Name: cytamobile
User id
or User name
or Login name: user
Password: pass
IP address
or Gateway
or Primary Proxy Server
or Proxy address: 212.31.96.161
IP address Port: 9201
Proxy Server Port: 8080
------------------------------------------------------
And they also sent me these settings for MMS
Profile name : Cytamms
Data Bearer : GPRS
Access Point name : cytamobile
User name : user
Password : pass
Authentication : normal
Gate Way IP address : 212.031.096.161
Homepage : http://mmsc.cyta.com.cy
Connection security : off
----------------------------------------------------
The voda UK settings for Internet (the ones in "My ISP") are:
Access point name: internet
username : web
Password : web
Oh also when i change the APN from "cytamobile" which i was given, to the Vodafone UK APN which is "internet" but i keep the Cyta-Voda username and password, internet still works. Im really confused.
Can some knowledgeable expert help me figure this out? Thanks and sorry for the huge post!
Try to hard-reset first, make sure everything are clean up.
And then, repeat your setting at menu
1. Setting - Connections
2. Manage Existing Connection - Click "NEW" and follow step-by-step (dont forget chooce Mode as Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G).
3. done
I already did a hard reset a few times and entered the settings and all but still nothing...
I've been plying with ROMs on my ATT Fuze for a while and feel pretty good about it. My future sister-in-law just got her husband a Touch Pro but they use ACS (Alaska Comunication Services). Now when I load a ROM on my phone and when I put my SIM in for the first time it asks to setup the carrier and ATT is the first on the list so I never have worried about this step. What if ACS is not on the very short list of carriers, what will in need to know when I select other, what is it going to ask me?
Thanks.
*bump*
I am also on a smaller carrier.... Einstein Wireless (aka Einstein PCS)... May carrier also isn;t on the list.. text messaging and calling works.. but not internet or picture messaging ... Any suggestions?
P.S. Below is the list of settings I used on my Tilt to get them to work..
Under settings, coto Connections...
Name for connection : EinsteinPCS Internet
access poin name : apn (case sensitive)
Usename : (leave blank)
password: (leave blank)
domain : (leave blank)
...under advanced
User Servier assigned IP address
click ok..
under proxy settings check: this network connects to the internet
check 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
Seriously guys? Just phone the carrier and ask for the settings - they'll either tell you, or send them as a network message (or both). The auto-config just makes life easier the the majority of people, its not essential.
I have a HTC Touch Pro which I got from Three in Australia. I have the energy rom running on it and it has been sim unlocked. I have put in a Lebara sim from the UK and I can not get the data connection working.. no email or google maps
I have called Lebara and they have said they don't have setting for the HTC.I know Lebara is on the Vodafone network so I tried setting the data connection to Vodafone but it still didn't work. I may not have done it properly though.
If anyone knows a way around this it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
I would search the networking forum for the settings like apn and the likes for the network you want to use and then manually add them
try to find lebera settings from different phones and use that settin in the htc should work
Go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>New Connection(At the top)
And enter these settings.
Profile Name - Lebara WAP
Bearer - GPRS/3G Modem (This will be a drop down list, make sure you select modem + GPRS/3G)
IP Address - 212.183.137.012
APN - uk.lebara.mobi
User ID - wap
Password - wap
WAP 2.0 Port - 8799
WAP 1.x Port - 9201
Authentication - Normal
Secure Settings - Off"
You may not need all these settings, but I hope this helped ( I haven't tested this but it should work)

I have the same problem....but only im with page plus(under verizon) in the usa
I am trying to setup 3g data connection in different county.
How do I manually select Data settings. What I see is Setting->cellular->Apn.
In Apn I have only 3 input (apn, user, password).
Where do I input ip and port? is it automatic?
thanks
atm.
APN typically doesn't contain IP address and port. That's for proxy server.
You can download the Samsung Networking tool from app market to see if it already contains settings for your carrier.
I have HTC HD 7. Previously I had Tmobile and now i just bought Straight talk as my network provider. How can I set up APN so i can access data on my cell? I am able to make calls and sms, NOT MMS and internet? can someone help plz
Try HTC Connection Manager first. It should be in your HTC Marketplace. It should automatically set your gprs. In case it doesn't do that, ask info about APN from your provider so you can type it in manually.
Did you even try a single search? Like, "Set APN on WP7" or something?
Settings -> Cellular -> Network Selection / Add APN.
Alternatively, the Connection Setup app (as recommended by @hatuna; it's in the HTC Apps section of the Marketplace) should work just fine.
I am running into the same issues as OP. When I search for "Setting APN on WP7" the responses indicate the steps to edit / create APN's for the AT&T sim. For the T-Mo sim's, Straight Talk wants us to add Port information but no Proxy and WP7 won't let you save settings if you have a port # but no proxy value.
Try adding it as "my.apn.domainORT", like you would for a port on a web browser.
Alternatively, try using the proxy port, but setting the proxy name to the APN as well.
Finally (first, really), have you tried Connection Setup yet?
Finally managed to make it work. I used these settings :
APN - wap.tracfone
Proxy - 216.155.165.40
Port - 8080
Leave username and password blank.
I am getting 3G speeds with this setting.
I tried the HTC Connection manager but it doesn't have an option for StraightTalk. I did try Tracfone as an option but it didn't work.

Did you find that the Tracfone option reverted to T-Mobile USA after you selected Tracfone and returned back to HTC Connection Manager? Also, did you find a place for the MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com setting?
