Fido APN settings for locked Rogers Captivate

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
Username: fido
Password: fido
APN Type: default
Leave All other Settings Blank
MMS
Name: fido mms
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?

[Q] Motorola Defy Android 2.1 and Wifi Tethering

Hi,
I tried to respond to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000824 ...but the forum won't let me.
So I purchased a Motorola Defy MB525 direct, Android 2.1 and I'm in Australia trying to get either the Internet Tethering (which seems to be USB/Bluetooth only on Android 2.1) or the 3G Mobile Hotspot application provided my Motorola using wifi to work for me.
I can connect to my phones IP address via USB cable (using the latest Motorola driver and setting the USB to developer mode on the phone) and I can enable wifi and connect to the IP address of the phone through my wireless home network.
However, when I activate the tethering option, I get the first message screen, then press ok. After that, I immediately get the message:
"Warning
There is no valid tethering APN
Please contact the customer service to update your tethering APN."
When I activate the included 3G Mobile Hotspot application I get an error "Cannot setup data lin, please contact your provider".

Can you access the internet on your phones browser directly using either of your APNs? It seems your problem exists because this is not possible. Tethering uses the internet connection from your phone to allow a computer to connect wirelessly.
I am from South Africa, here our APNs require a username and password, this could possibly be the case for you. Try internet as username and 1234 as password. Or just contact your service provider and tell them to send you the settings.

Defy Tethering
There seems to be a mix up in almost all forums where the term wifi is used. Home wifi is mixed with service provider wifi. Some American carriers website mentions the term "wifi" but it exclusively refers to internet via their network.
I have a Moto Defy, not rooted and recently updated to Froyo. I tether the phone to my laptop using Azilink and it works well on home wifi. I have not tried 3G hotspot as the charges are quite high where I live.
However under 3G hotspot on pressing menu one may find setup for "local" wifi with encryption like WEP and WPA for connecting the phone to laptop. This can be done even if the hotspot is disabled. But I could not get on the internet as there is no bridging mechanism between the network created by the above method and the home wifi connection between the phone and wireless router.
Can someone throw some light on the above please?
Surprisingly on a Chinese phone with Froyo usb tethring works well. While Linux detects "Auto USB" network, on Windows TAP-Win32 driver works well.

[Q] SIM Unlocked but still cannot message or call

I've been lurking around the forums for weeks now, and much as I hate to be the new n00b on the block, I'm seriously at my wits end with this phone.
I have root access, the stock Froyo ROM, busy box, and I went through the same hell most of us with the SGS4G seemed to go through to get it unlocked (at which point I caved and called T-Mobil) and now that it's finally unlocked, it won't recognize the SIM card (China Telecom) it says 'no service' and claims that my phone number is unknown. I have a good signal though... OTL
I've used the SIM card in the (Android) phone it came with (a Chinese model, of course; it was hell to navigate.) So I know the card is fine.
I wanted to actually be able to use this phone as a phone before messing around with it, so if anyone has some ideas for me, I'd be much obliged. And while I'm on my knees I'll ask, do any of you know of a decent (free) VPN I can use to get over the Great Firewall of China? (youtube and fb aside, it'd be nice to get some real news without having Big Brother watching (and blocking) my every move)
TL;DR:
rooted SGS4G on stock Froyo ROM.
SIM unlocked but not acknowledged; can't send messages or make calls.
Not a SIM or signal problem.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

Check your IMEI.

Is there is APN setting you need to enter manually for that SIM?

Ah, it's an APN problem.
Looks like China Telecom uses the CDMA/EvDo rev, and whereas the SGS4G is made specifically for T-Mobile, which uses GSM/WCDMA. It's not acknowledging the China Telecom network, and won't even let me save the APN settings when enter them manually.
It looks like the difference is in the MNC value. I don't know much about it, but it only accepts '99' (for CDMA it's '03')
Well then... is it possible to even get my phone to use the China Telecom network?

APN settings for China Telecom
Most APN lists don't have China Telecom included (why? because it's CDMA? or is there some other conspiracy?), so I'm posting the settings for whoever need them, though I don't think this is the right place
Note: Under "Network Settings/Mode" you want "CDMA/EvDo" or "CDMA only" selected. if you don't have this option, sucks for you... and me D: (unless you know a fix???)

So I've got service, can call/text, but I have absolutely no data/MMS

I was running stock 4.4.2, rooted and unlocked, and my service/data were fine until today, when I just stopped being able to use data. I've tried rebooting, powering down for about half an hour, checked and double checked my APNs, and flashed Cm11. Haven't tried to flash a new radio alone since I figured cm11 would've come with a different radio from stock. A friend suggested it might be my SIM, but I would assume I would get no service at all if there was a problem there.
So where do I go from here? :V

Who is your carrier. Go to mobile networks/access point names/ and find your apn settings

Try proper radio. A sign is if your WiFi doesn't find signal usually bad mixed. I get this often. I flash lots on many devices but its simple. Anyway try your radio. And no ROMs normally have no radio unless it says otherwise or firmware. Peace.

See I can pick up wifi just fine, it's just my regular data that's acting up. I've tried looking into a guide for flashing radios but to be honest, I don't know much about LTE bands or anything. Is there a good guide here that I missed? It seems as simple as flashing one with CWR but I don't wanna ruin anything.

You can have as many as you like but it will only use one. It looks as if you are mixing the settings of different apns together

Added both, tried selecting each one and I'm still having the same problem.

So to update, I've gone back to stock 4.4.4, straight from google, still not working, and then flashed the newest radio and that didn't do it either. Starting to thing it's a hardware problem, maybe actually is the SIM?

Ended up being the sim! Thanks for your help though, guys!

Hisense A2 pro: No Internet connection, wrong APN?

Hi all,
recently I got my new phone Hisense A2 pro imported, but can't get it set up right. It's not the original ROM.
2g, 4g is written at the upper lefter corner and I can get SMS, but no internet connection. I think the APN settings are wrong, but I'm not sure and tried different settings. Does it sound as if it's a problem with the APN or could it be something else My recent settings are:
