Working APN settings for t-mobile g2x on straight talk given sim ??

Please Help.
I want to use an unlocked t-mobile branded lg g2x on the straight talk network
The APN settings supplied by the straight web site do not work for mms or internet,
If you have the APN settings that work for mms and internet please post them with confirmation that they work.
Thank you very much

Did you get any settings to work?
I want to pull the trigger on this, but not sure if it works (had some issues with the Simple Mobile APN settings on my phone).
Let me know.

Yes ! Please post these settings! I have had my g2x for about a month now with no sms/data at all! It is very frustrating I have tried many apns and cannot find one that works.. .

I got my g2x to work with straightalk last night but only phone and text. No data. Used my sim from my nokia e71. Type in att.mvno in the apn config screen. Trying to come up with the next step to get data.

Working settings for Lg G2x straighttalk
Name: whatever_you_want_the_name_to_be
APN: att.mvno
Username:
Password:
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
EDIT: not sure what MCC and MNC stand for, or what the settings should be, but try leaving the 310, 410 settings in place, if it doesnt work, try leaving them blank.
Here are my settings:
Name
HOME
APN
att.mvno
Leave everything else alone EXCEPT the bottom selection that says:
APN type (here you must enter the following)
default,supl
Then save, next choose to add another APN
make it look like this:
Name
MMS
APN
att.mvno
skip down to
MMSC
http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy
proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
MMS port
80
skip to:
APN type (enter the following)
mms
THEN SAVE
You will see that only one APN has the option to be chosen, that is ok, Just choose the one that is able to be chosen.
Now go back to Homescreen and then reboot your phone.
This works for me, hope it can help you. I tried a hundred different ways and this was it. Capitalization is important, and the APN type was the trick.
GOOD LUCK and let me know if it worked for you.

them settings did not work for me. is there any other settings i can use?

working APN
If you are on stock rom then the normal straight talk settings work. Although you will have to download APN manager from the market to delete the T-Mobile apn or else your system will automatically switch to it occasionally which will drop data.
If you are on a custom rom (MIUI, ICS, etc.):
1. Open apn settings
2. Open the T-Mobile apn
DO NOT ERASE OR CHANGE ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE FOLLOWING
3. Change APN to wap.tracfone
4. Change Port to 8080
5. Change MMSC to http://mms.tracfone.com
6. Erase anything typed in the "APN type" field
7. Save
8. Delete any other APNs.
If you already deleted the T-Mobile apn on a custom rom you'll have to reinstall the rom or ask the developer what the apn settings were.
This has always worked for me. Hope it helps.

^^^^ That is the correct solution.

Thank you c1c2doc that worked perfectly!

The latest CM 7.2 has the StraightTalk APN information pre-populated as an option along with Simple. You can also get the T-Mobile SIM card from StraightTalk as well now so you don't have to unlock the phone. Has anyone tried these yet?

I just got my Straighttalk T-mobile SIM up and running. I did not have to unlock my T-mobile GS2, plug-n-play. Took about a day to port my number over, entered the APN settings on the website. Getting data speeds the same as T-mobile, MMS worked the first time. So far, no complaints. I read on another forum that autopay eliminates fees and taxes. We will see.

[Q]No Data Connection After Update (Consumer Cellular)

I have an AT&T branded Galaxy SII i727 Skyrocket (4G LTE). It is not unlocked, has not been rooted and runs AT&T firmware. The phone was purchased independent of a contract (eBay). I am a very light user, but I find it convenient to have a data plan and initially used AT&T GoPhone prepaid. Phone and SMS worked properly on AT&T right away, but some tweaking was required to get data to work. After a few months, I switched to Consumer Cellular (AT&T MVNO). Again, data did not work at first, but CC's tech support gave me revised Access Point Name settings and all became as it should have been.
Recently (I don't remember exactly when, but it was in early or mid December), I finally gave in to the phone's insistence on updating to a later firmware version. From then on, I have been unable to get data to work at all. the 4G symbol no longer appears (although I doubt it was ever actually a 4G connection) and any App that requires a data connection (web, email, etc) complains about no connection. WiFi, on the other hand, works properly with all such Apps.
Here are the specifics of my phone:
Samsung SGH-I727
Android 4.04
Baseband Version I727UCLI3
Kernel Version:
3.0.8-1127534
[email protected]#1
SMPPREEMPT Thu Sep 27 23:12:45 KST 2012
2012​Build number IMM76D.UCLI3​
My questions are these:
Has anyone had this sort of problem (data on Consumer Cellular fails after upgrade)? If so, how did you solve it?
Was this problem caused by the upgrade? If not, what other issues might have caused it and how can they be corrected?
How can I revert the firmware to the previous version to confirm the cause and/or resolve it?
What else can I do to get my data connection back?
I am not particularly Android savvy, but I am not shy about making changes in settings and/or installing fixes.
Thanks,
Tenaya

Here's a silly question but did you add the APN your carrier gave you back after the update?

No, not silly.
Since I had to do that to fix both previous problems, it was the first thing I did.

Consumer Cellular APN settings for Skyrocket i727
I recently moved my service from AT&T to Consumer Cellular using my existing Samsung Skyrockets. The new phone signal is identical to that of the old as far as I can tell. (same towers) My issue came when trying to setup my text and data side of my Samsung Skyrocket. The settings provided by CC on their website are incomplete. Be prepared to speak with a 2nd level tech to accomplish all of the connections required on "their" end. Here are the APN settings that are working on my two i727's as of Jan 2014. Both are running 4.1.2
Name: Consumer Cellular
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: "66 . 209 . 11 . 32" (without spaces)
Port: 80
User name: Not set
Pasword: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http :// mmsc . cingular . com (without spaces)
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default,supl,mms,agps,fota
APN protocal: IPv4
Enable/disable APN: APN enabled (check)
Bearer: Unspecified

very helpful for my Skyrocket
Thanks for posting this. I had data working on my AT&T skyrocket, now used with Consumer Cellular, and then it stopped for no apparent reason. I had all the same settings as above, but on my phone the Authentication Type was unspecified or none. I changed it to PAP and now data is back. I don't know if I had never set this before, or if something changed it, but I'm glad it seems to be working again.

always when you format your phone, check the APN settings.
If it isn't configured you won't be able to surf.
happy to hear you fixed the issue.

good while it lasted -30 min

While changing that setting did bring the data connection back to life, it seems to have disappeared again. I'm not sure why. When I turn airplane mode on and then off, data doesn't reconnect. When I reboot the phone it seems to connect after maybe 15 minutes of trying. Could it be a bad sim card? Or maybe should I do a complete reset of the phone? I don't see anyone else reporting these sorts of symptoms, so maybe it is specific to my phone.

Another option for Consumer Cellular APN settings
I just got off the phone (third time in a week) with a tech support person at CC. They said they think they knew the problem. Because the AT&T SGH-I727 skyrocket is 4G LTE capable, a new APN should be set up:
Name: ccilte
APN: ccdata
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default,mms,supl
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
I asked a couple of times if they really should be backslashes for Server and MMSC, rather than forward slashes. They insisted they should be backslashes, which is what I put in, and it worked, and then I changed them to forward slashes (which seems more appropriate) and that works too. That was weird, since I'd expect one to fail. So now I seem to get a data connection (it has been almost a day and it hasn't dropped data service). I even went in and out of airplane mode, turned wifi on and off, and data came right back, which never happened before. Hopefully this may help someone else who made the bumpy transition to Consumer Cellular.

Fix for MMS issues on Pixel 2 on T-Mobile while connected to certain Wi-Fi networks

This was also posted as a reply on the Pixel 2 XL Q&A forum here and I figured other T-Mobile Pixel 2 users would find this useful since this fix works on both the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL.
Situation
My wife was unable to send MMSs on T-Mobile with her Pixel 2. Finally realized it had to do when connected to Wi-Fi, but only when connected to the EAP Wi-Fi at work. Since we work for the same company, I tested with my Pixel 2 XL and it is happening to me too. It works fine at home on our Wi-Fi and on the mobile network, but not when we are on our work's Wi-Fi. I can disable Wi-Fi at work and the MMS sends. Both phones have the same dysfunction. I normally use Google Voice and I never receive MMSs directly to my phone and had not noticed the issue up to this point.
I did a test where I added my Google Voice number and my wife's number in a group message with my phone's number and tested connecting on Wi-Fi, mobile network, and work Wi-Fi and every time we are on the work's Wi-Fi, MMSs fail to send or receive. I know it is happening to only Pixel 2s and no one else because my wife's previous phone, a T-Mobile Galaxy S7, worked fine on any network to send/receive MMSs. I have reset network settings and APN settings back to default, no change. From what research on the issue I could find, people were changing APN settings. Looking at the APN settings, I realized the two T-Mobile MMS listings have the APN listed as "TMUS," whereas the default APN is listed as "fast.t-mobile.com." Since "TMUS" is not a valid domain name, I changed the first T-Mobile MMS APN to fast.t-mobile.com and MMS started working on the work's Wi-Fi. I reset my APN settings back to default and it stopped working on my work's Wi-Fi again (as expected). I thought that I should leave the default APNs alone, just in case, and decided to create a third T-Mobile MMS APN with fast.t-mobile.com as the APN. This third T-Mobile MMS APN somehow allows MMSs to work on the company's Wi-Fi.
Fix
This fix seems to be the least amount of work and is very easily undone.
Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile network > Access Point Names.
Tap on the 3 dot menu at the upper-right and select "Reset to default."
Create a new APN with the following settings:
Name: T-Mobile MMS
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy, Port, Username, Password, and Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc (When typing this in, make sure auto correct doesn't change anything since URLs are case sensitive!)
MMS Proxy and MMS Port: Not Set
MCC: 310 (Should already be set)
MNC: 260 (Should already be set)
APN Type: mms
APN Protocol: IPv6
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO Type: None
MVNO Value: Not Set
Tap on the 3 dot menu and select "Save."
Reboot your phone for good measure (may not be necessary) and open Android Messages.
Send a MMS or group MMS on and off the Wi-Fi network you are having issues on to see if it sends. If you have several queued up messages that haven't sent, you may need to tap to resend them and they may become out of order on the recipient's end.
If you ever wanted to undo these changes, you can either reset the APN settings or remove the fast.t-mobile.com one.
Conclusions
The main thing to note about this is that it is the same as the other T-Mobile MMS APNs, but has TMUS replaced with fast.t-mobile.com. If you look at the actual default fast.t-mobile.com APN, you'll notice that "mms" isn't listed among the others in APN Type. I feel, if I could edit that default fast.t-mobile.com APN, the problem would be fixed by adding ",mms" at the end. I assume one could duplicate everything in the default one and add it that way, but I wanted to provide the simplest, non-invasive fix possible that would not result in any future or unforeseen problems. When the phone/Google Messages/text message app consults the APNs while on an enterprise Wi-Fi connection, I assume it goes through each one to attempt to find one with MMS in the APN type and then attempts to contact the APN via its domain name, but fails since TMUS is not valid. I am not sure why it doesn't go ahead, verifies a working data connection, and then sends the MMS using http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc as it seems to do fine on other Wi-Fi networks. The phones are like, "Whelp, I'm on an enterprise Wi-Fi connection and I need me an MMS APN with a FQDN or I aint workin'!" I do not know what makes my company's Wi-Fi so different from my home Wi-Fi aside from it using EAP authentication. This wasn't a problem on my wife's previous phone (T-Mo Galaxy S7). I had the 2016 Pixel for a while, but I use Google Voice and would not normally notice the MMS issues.
If anyone has a good theory as to wth is going on, please contribute! I think its some sort of wonky Oreo issue. I hope this helps anyone who was as frustrated as I was!

Every family group text used to be a nightmare. This solved all my MMS maladies. Thank you for the nice writeup!

APN Settings - Oneplus 7 - Non Rooted or Unlocked

Hi there,
Just wanted to ask if there was a way to adjust the APN settings on the oneplus 7 as it appears it has been greyed out with no "+" sign to add new. Not sure why this is happening as I came from a oneplus 3 device which had this option. My father is traveling in europe right now and has the same device, he is unfortunately unable to edit the APN settings with the purchased sim card which is causing him grief. Why has this been disabled? For some reason as well the carrier that he is using, BONBON in Croatia, the pushed settings are not correct and thus he cannot get internet or 4G internet working. I should mention my device is not rooted or unlocked bootloader and this would not be an option for him over in europe as he is not comfortable nor has the setup to do so.
Is there any help here? It appears it may be just our phones as I checked with another pixel 3 locally here and it has the "+" sign available to add another setting etc.
Thoughts on this, really need some help to get him going over there!

New development:
Turns out the "+" sign has now appeared and we have attempted to enter the following information from BonBon technical support. Unfortunately after we enter the below information and hit save, nothing happens. I have found another post on here indicating that MVNO should be set to something to allow for it to save. Weird. I haven't tried, but here are the results of the APN settings below:
Name: Internet
APN: internet.ht.hr
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Server: Not set
MMS center: Not set
MMS proxy: Not set
MMS port: Not set
MMC: 219
MNC: 01
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default, supl
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enable
Bearer: Unspecified
Mobile virtual network operater (MVNO) type: None
Once I hit save and back out there is nothing there listed, no matter what i did.

check on yur phone if you have an app created on your phone by the sim card:
"SIM Toolbox" or "BonBon services" or something like that

Hi there,
Unfortunately nothing was created, is there an app or tool I can use to get this added? Any ideas as to why it wont save after trying to add?

Having the same problem, and I DO have an app called "Sim Toolbox" listed as somewhere on the phone, but not in the app drawer. Is it part of the problem?

Question Changed from Verizon to ATT, now wifi calling is missing.

So I switched three phones from Verizon to ATT, the two Samsung Notes changed over fine. All of the ATT services where setup after reboot prompt, even the startup logo was changed to ATT. The third phone was a Moto G Play and it didn't go as well. There was no reboot prompt and the ATT services were never installed. The startup logo is still Verizon and there is a notification that the SIM is not from Verizon. I would think it was carrier locked but for the fact that the phone DOES work and the carrier is shown as ATT. There was no SIM code prompt or any other reason for it to not change over correctly.
My question is, is there a way to manually install ATT wifi calling or other ATT services that should have been setup automatically? Wifi calling was working with Verizon but is not even present as an option to enable for ATT.
This is a list of ATT wifi compatible phones which includes the Moto G Play
https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/pdf/Compatible-Wi-Fi-Calling-Devices-on-ATT-Network.pdf

I had a similar experience with ATT in the past with a Samsung unlocked device. It took me quite a while (6 months) to get ATT whitelist my IMEI and post that my Wi-Fi calling option got enabled and working. Just as you have quoted the samsung device was a compatible phone as per ATT but it was not ATT branded thus Wi-Fi calling was not available.
The best way to check on a Samsung phone is to go into settings> about phone> status information>Sim card status - under IMS registration you should see "ON" if not then the phone IMEI is not whitelisted. This I gather based on my conversation with ATT support over the period I was chasing them.
ATT does not whitelist the IMEI - you will really have to pull big strings, I had to be persistent and patient. At one point I lost hope. One fine day got a message it was whitelisted and then rebooted my phone and voila IMS registration said "ON" wifi option got enabled and started working.

Yes, APN's have to be manually injected - First inject these into the APN settings
Then reboot
