PTA APN working - FINALLY!!! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

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

Apn settings for att?

Hey,
My data connection hasn't been working the past couple days so I went into settings to check the apn's and they all got deleted. Could somebody post the stock apn settings from att for me? That'd be great!

Can't connect to network?

I just bought an Inspire and I can't connect to Att network. It shows the H+ and shows that Att is my Newtork Operator but it wont let change any of the settings or scan for other networks. I had a HD2 that was unlocked and work like a charm on the network but now it won't let me play with the settings. Do you think that I have an old data plan back in 2005 that was unlimited to my Sony Erricison?
Your data plan has to be 4g otherwise it won't connect to the data. You can keep unlimited also.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
The H+ usually means that you are connected to the data network. Are you sure it isn't a H with a check mark? Which means that you aren't connected to the network. To use the default APN settings you have to be on a "4G" plan, like the previous poster said. You can always add an APN to the list and use it as well. I had this issue when I first got my Inspire. Try these settings.

internet just stopped working ?

really have no idea whats going on, i used my phone like normal today running darky rom (port)
(yes i have an infuse 4g) and now my internet wont work at all, a few days ago i got a text from att saying that i was in the top 5% of internet users orsomething.
(i dont do any tethering, but i stream pandora all the time). i checked data at the time i was at 5gb.
i checked again now and im at 5.5 gg.
i thought that because i had an iphone 3g previously and had a grandfathered data plan that i should be alright.
(when i check data with *data# it says, (data 5519.3 of unlimited)
when i try to go to any website it loads for a long time then says "web page is not available"
any idea whats going on ?

Check into settings---> wireless connections--->Mobile networks--->APN(access point names)
Just check you still got your att apns they may have erased or be bad information.
If that doesnt work go into recovery try a cache cleaning.
If that doesnt work try another ROM, if you still have no data then call ATT.
Hope it solves.

yeah i checked my apn's and they were fine.
as it turns out i checked again the next morning and it was working no problem.
my guess is att was doing maintenance or something lol
Funny thing is my phone was doing the same thing. Must have been maintenance because all my phones weren't working.

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!

Mobile data not working after factory data reset

I just bought this used skyrocket yesterday. Everything was working fine after I bought it including the 4G mobile data. Today, I called at&t to register the phone on my account and switch my data plan to LTE. They said the phone is clean and made the changes for me. I then decided to perform a factory data reset to get rid of the previous user's stuff. After the reset, everything works EXCEPT mobile data. I've tried everything -- powering the phone off/on, turning packet data off/on, airplane mode off/on, removing/replacing the SIM. I called at&t back and they said the phone is still clean, it's not been reported stolen and it's not blacklisted.
The seller told me he had a custom rom on it at one point, but he restored it to factory condition. I went into recovery mode and it still has the stock recovery so I'm assuming it's not rooted nor does it have a custom rom.
Any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks,
dw
You are gonna need a 4g Sim card. They should've told you that on the phone. Also check that you have data packets enabled
Did you check your APN?
