PTA APN working - FINALLY!!!

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

Same here. Boston lte

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

Washington DC LTE now working. Thank Goodness, I was about to jump ship.

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

No MMS no matter what ROM/KERNEL/firmware etc...

Like the title says, since the second ROM I ever installed, (CM7 alpha 10 I believe) I have not been able to send/receive MMS on any combo of software , ICS or GB, kernel , etc. I have verified the APN's, still nothing... my plan allows unlimited, so unfortunate that I can't use it...Any ideas are welcome

I don't know if this helps or not, but It seems like people with American Carriers, or T-mobile tend to not have issues with MMS. I don't know if this would work, but maybe comparing APN settings and seeing if anything is missing may work?

Settings -> More.. -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names ->
at this point I had three or three options...
I assume they were: T-Mobile, T-Mobile Data, and T-Mobile MMS
Now since I use Simple Mobile, I had to change the T-Mobile to Simple Mobile with all the correct settings, and for MMS to work I also had to change the T-Mobile MMS APN with the same exact settings as the Simple Mobile APN.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
One other way you may try, after putting all the correct settings;
Where is says APN Type, write "mms" (without quotes)
Give it a try. Hope it helps.

Problem is, I'm on Bell Canada...

I'm on Wind and I cant neither send nor receive mms but I think my settings are correct since the phone detected it automatically. Any ideas ?

I am with O2 uk and also had this issue. I contacted them and they emailed their latest apn settings to me, which I copied in to my settings and my mms then worked fine. I think when some custom roms search for the apns automatically they pick up out of date settings. Just phone your carrier and ask for the apn settings for mms as if you are getting internet but no mms on several roms it can only be due to incorrect apn.

For those having trouble with Rogers, I wasted quite a bit of time trying to figure out why I couldn't send/receive MMS. Solution for me was this:
1. USE ONLY THIS APN, DELETE ALL THE OTHER APNS - For some reason, it conflicted and when I deleted all the other unnecessary APN's it worked great again. Here's what I used and ONLY this one for Rogers Canada. The internet.com apn doesn't work for me, fortunately I found this one that works!

[Solved] ATT Data APNs?

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.

[Q] LG G pro 3G issue.

Quote:
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

[Q] 2G instead of 4G

i have a carrier unlocked One S, which used to be T-Mobile, now it's on AT&T. i remembered from when i had the One X that i had to setup a APN, so i found the necessary information and create one, worked fine, actually set it up a couple of times no problem. so today after i redid my phone again i create the APN, and now i can't get higher than 2G (tested in several locations) anyone any idea how i can resolve this?

As far as I know, HTC One S DOESN'T support 4G (at least mine S3 variant doesn't). And if 3G isn't working also at locations where it should, are you sure you have the WSM/GSM mode, not only checked one of these?
Edit: Found out that this may be a hardware issue that happens after S-OFFING and/or SIM UNLOCKing

thanks guys... had some other issues and the seller is going to send me another One S... we'll see how that goes.
