[Q] Slow data with SKYICS - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

After switching to SKYICS, my data has sucked. At first I was barely getting 90kbps on the speedtest, after a wipe and a reflash of everything, barely 1mbps. Any suggestions? I've wiped, cleared caches and reflashed the update, reflashed the modem, and no luck.

I'm on ICS. I switched ROMS to CM9 to see if SKYICS was the problem, and same thing. The APN settings are correct. I pulled the sim, and dialed, and it said the mobile network wasn't able. Put the sim back in and dialed, and it says MMI is invalid. :/
*EDIT*
I did try the Alternate APN and its doing the same thing. What I've noticed though is it keeps switching the little network icon from an H, to 3g, to H, to nothing.

Same
OK, I was having those EXACT problems on my GB build. I did a complete tear down to stock (yech) and suddenly I could see AT&T LTE again, and it wasn't switching from H+ to nothing and Edge..
So, I got sick of stock in about three minutes and decided to try ICS for a first time. Got the UCLD2 stuff and followed instructions (I know... booooring... LOL) and it actually worked. I am now on ICS with Smooth Ice and my transfer rates in Dallas are around 30-35mb (ok by me)...
QUESTION: Where can I find the CM9 rom for this setup? I was out of the loop for about two months and everything I knew is now wrong.. LOL
Thanks!

The alpha build is over in the dev forums. I'd go with SKYICS though.

Is this on HSPA+ or LTE? Maybe you got throttled.

I didn't get throttled. My Billing cycle had just started. It fixed itself when I went back to GB for a day. I read somewhere else to do the oneclick before flashing roms. So I did that, went back to skyics, and it worked again.

Infuse APN Settings help

Hi guys, just got the new Infuse. I can't get data/3G. Voice works. I went into the APN settings, and there are two apns. One is called ATT Phone and one ATT WAP. I cannot choose between the two, I cannot delete them, I cannot edit them, I cannot add a new APN. Looking at the ATT WAP apn is missing the username and password, and I guess that's why it doesn't work.
I've never encountered an android device where I couldn't modify the apns, so I don't know what to do. Any ideas? Thanks!
What provider are you using?
Look in the market for apn. I forget the name of it, but there are several apn managers in the market that will let you backup and edit your apn some Android phones require two to work it seems. And if memory serves one of them is mostly blank.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
I'm using ATT. I played around it some more, and finally it let me save a new APN and I'm able to select it, so now everything works fine...
That was the normal setting for the phone as you described.
It should not have been a need for you to edit anything. My phone had the same settings and worked fine.
I have the same problem. Can you give me an instruction of how to fix it?
I just went to setting>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names
Then i added the new APN that my service provider her in the Dominican Republic gave me.
Have not reset the phone or tried anything yet.
Is this the correct process? WHere have you guys been trying to change it that it will not let you?
Here are the exact setting that work for me..

Rocky.
Rocky is correct. I was having a similer issue and I have to add a new wntry by going to the Apn and adding a 3rd one like this. The name did not matter as I called mine test and used the same setting that Rocky posted (I got them from youtube shwing how to add it).
Now I have 3 APN and it works correctly.
THANK YOU!!! I am on infused 2.2.3 and everything was working peachy until a few days ago when I could no longer connect to data. I could get phone calls, but no data. I tried flashing a new modem, tried a new kernel, and was fixin to restore to stock because I didn't know what else to do until I say Rocky's post with the APN settings. This worked like a charm. Thanks again!!!
I was going to post this the other day but wanted to make sure it worked first. I stumbled onto this post in the SGS2 forums which gives the simplest solution that have given me the best result. The other suggested APN settings I've seen in various threads never worked for me. I wouldn't expect as monumental a jump in bandwidth as he shows, but it seems to be doing well otherwise.

Tgrifftto, did you try and successfully use those apn's on an infuse? I tried them and didn't get a connection, I'm running CM7.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
I used them with the Infused v2.2.3 ROM and they worked well. I flashed to GSInfuse 1.1.5 today however to try on there because the last time I flashed this ROM it was bouncing sporadically between 3G and HSPA+ and was hoping it would alleviate that issue. So far no luck.
The settings suggested before is one of the default APNs (can also be set by hitting "menu/reset to default" on the APN settings screen), so may be what you wanna go with if it works for you. Another option I found that has worked for several people is along with the default settings specified previously including the following settings as well:
User name: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
It seems to definitely be a "results may vary" kindof thing.

I actually tried that myself and had MMS issues, but I think I have a working hybrid of the two. I have been getting decent speeds and MMS works but I have been getting erratic results and need to test more.
Edit: Ok so dont judge me on this if it doesn't do anything for you but the data seems convincing to me for the moment. I tweaked a few things that have been posted previously and one thing in particular seems to have changed things for me. I removed the http:// from the MMSC server address and dropped the specified MMSC Proxy. I honestly don't know why it would have altered the routing so drastically and I do not have a traceroute to show if it maps differently this way but the attached shows the results I'm getting and for some reason adding the http:// and the specified MMS proxy (66.209.11.32) always slows me down noticeably. I cant measure my signal loss (other than on the phone) to see if anything else happens to be interfering when I have the http:// and the proxy address in place (cloud bounce reflectivity, solar flares, increase usage on the high tension lines between me and the tower) but these results are what I get every time I swap settings. The bottom 3 results on the attached are with http:// and proxy included and the top 4 are without it. Phone was sitting on my desk in the same place for all tests with the only changes (I could control anyway) being the APN setting. You'll see my ping times are almost identical so my routing couldn't have changed very drastically, but the numbers mean something is different.
Here are the settings I am using

im running ics miui and under APN Type it just opens a field to type into like a text. when i reset settings to default it sets this to *...just a star. i see everyone has this internet + mms but i dont get any options. this is causing my calls to be dropped drastically and my data to cut in and out.

I havent tried it but i posted a possible solution in the miui thread...my apn settings disappeared after i flashed pikachus thunderbolt but reappeared after a restart....i dont think that your problem is that easy tho?
Also when you finally figure it out, i read in the Thunderbolt thread that changing APN from "wap.cingular" to "phone" will increase data speeds....according to linuxbozo
Hope this helped

yea the "phone" thing does give me faster speeds. i still get cut out a lot though i love how tech support doesnt know sh*t lol. its been happening to me on all roms.
Guys, one thing to note is that CM7 (and in turn MIUI), don't like multiple APNs. AT&T runs their ROMs with two different APNs, keeping the data APN separate. This is fine on any ROM based on AT&T's releases, however, if you try to use two on CM7, you'll likely run into issues. The best thing to do is disable the "phone" APN and only use the "wap.cingular" APN. If you have both on your phone, you can do this by adding "default" to the list of APN types for the "wap.cingular" APN (or you should be able to entirely delete, just make sure to add default to "wap.cingular").
If you do run an AT&T based ROM, I highly suggest you do use both with "wap.cingular" for mms and supl APN types, and "phone" for default. This is the absolute only "trick" you can do to make the phone's data a little faster (since build.prop changes don't do anything).
Here are the details for both:
"wap.cingular" APN:
Name: ATT MMS
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32

MCC: 310
MNC: 410

APN type: mms,supl (and default if you are only using this APN)
APN protocol: IPv4
"phone" APN:

MMSC: Not set
MMS Proxy: Not set

I notice a definite increase in response time with the "phone" APN. Pages seem to load a lot faster, regardless of what actual speed increases it gives you, so I recommend using that if you aren't on CM7 or MIUI. If you are, well, stick to single APN or else you'll see data issues, especially in Market.

It's not "internet + mms", you specifically type in "internet,mms". It is just a text field. You have to type in what you want. Actually, "internet + mms" may be a valid setting in that field, but I've always seen it comma separated, so that's what I'd stick to. I'm not sure what valid APN types there are, the ones I know of are mms, supl, internet, and default. default obviously being the catch all for anything not configured in another APN.

ooohh thanks very much buddy. my issue was when i typed that with the plus sign i would loose data completely. actually everything except default and * cause me to loose my data. i am running miui and i did notice that the 2 apns make the phone go ape****. i kinda setup my own through a lot of research and googling and i came up with this which is making it go flawlessly except for the speed its not as fast as it can be. my setup is:

See, I thought I remembered one of them needing the username and password, however, I don't have one in my phone and it seems to work just fine. *shrug* Whatever works I suppose! But yeah, on MIUI just stick to single APN. I would assume not setting the APN Type would cause it to automatically default to everything using that APN (if it's the only one).
im one of the infuse owners and i noticed something with the signal issue ive been having for a very long time. data fix didnt work for me nothing seemed to work for me. the best results i get is with KI3 modem. also when i try to set "network type selection" to 3G only sometimes it automatically resets to 3G preffered which is what gives me the issues. but the thing i noticed is i have these severe issues of service cutting in and out when i am on umts. when i force my phone on hsdpa my download speeds almost triple my calls r beautifully clear no cutting in and out. any thought on this? is there a way i can have my phone on hsdpa only? and default the setting to 3G only in network settings? thanks in advance for any input i would really like to solve this

APN Settings?

I got a Skyrocket this morning, however I did not opt for a new sim because I am in a non-LTE area. But I later realized that although I can make calls, I cannot receive calls, texting does work but data does not and I have no MMS. I set up a new APN using the same settings I had used on my Infuse 4G and now everything works except for MMS. Although I changed the apn I was not able to delete the stock apn that didn't work. Any ideas?

I guess not, I will call now and see if I can get that switched over. I would have thought they would have done that back when I bought the Infuse 4G, but apparently although the signal said 4G, I wasn't getting the speed.
I didnt get a new sim and am on stock apn settings with no issues. I asked about a new sim and they had no idea what i was talking about.

It depends when you last had to get a new SIM. The SIMs for LTE are different than UMTS. The PTA APN works just fine on all networks (E, 3G, H+ and LTE).
Just got off the phone and was told that I can't change my 3G Unlimited plan to a 4G one without them sending me a 4G Sim and then activating it and that they don't have a 4G microsim. Maybe I can do this to switch the plan and then ask for them to send me another microsim.

wont work. there is a micro SIM for LTE (you can probably guess how I know that) but I am guessing the adapter will not pass LTE but since the iphone is not LTE that may not matter.
BTW, you will not loos your unlimited data. They just add it to a unlimited LTE data plan. You can confirm this after the change on myatt.

Sorry, I guess I'm being a little slow tonight, but I don't quite understand what you are saying. Let me rephrase my question.
When using the "phone" apn, MMS does not work for me. I would like to be able to use the "phone" apn to get HSPA+ speeds and have MMS working. Currently I am having to use the "wap.cingular" apn so that my MMS will work.
I am currently using a 1 year old microsim that came in the iPhone 4. I have the unlimited data for iPhone.
What data plan should I be on so that I can use the "phone" apn with working MMS?
Also, can this data plan work with a microsim so that I can have HSPA+ speeds when using my Galaxy but also have the ability to use the iPhone 4 on some days?
The reason the default settings don't work is because you NEED to have a LTE data plan on your account. Trust me I know what I am talking about ;-). Once you have that provisioned on your account the default APN settings will work just fine.

Sorry, I guess I'm being a little slow tonight, but I don't quite understand what you are saying. Let me rephrase my question.
When using the "phone" apn, MMS does not work for me. I would like to be able to use the "phone" apn to get HSPA+ speeds and have MMS working. Currently I am having to use the "wap.cingular" apn so that my MMS will work.

For phone APN, set it to Internet only.
Then, set up another APN with the wap.cingular APN and set that to MMS only

MicroSIM is only for iPhone 4/4s. Every other device uses a regular sized SIM. You'd have to keep going back and getting a new SIM everytime you'd like to use each phone.
I work for AT&T, I do it all the time, haha.
Couldn't you just trim a LTE sim card to the micro-sim size? xD

Phone does not get data signal

Hi, last night I installed that odin ICS leak, and my phone does not get data connection. I have a good amount of bars, and it says network type HSPA, but I dont get the 4g / lte icons. There is no IP address, and no data coming in at all.
I checked the APN settings, and its empty.
What APN should I add to make my data work?
Same, we may just need to try a reflash though..

I would use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474136
To answer my own post I found this online
Name: attwap (name it whatever you want)
APN: wap.cingular
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Seems to work.
I dont have LTE at my house, but at work tonight I get LTE so ill check if it works.
So far works great for regular HSPA though
EDIT: Posted right before that burgeswe post that link. Ill try that also.
Derp. I should have tried that in the first place.
You might just try going into the APN's screen, and hitting menu - reset to default.
Not sure about the ICS settings because I've been on call since the leak, but in theory it should work

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?

[Q] Rogers Phone, Rogers SIM, Bell Networks????? Help!! Serious problem

I recently had my son's SGH-I727r in for a screen replacement. His phone was rooted and running a custom ROM but it is not unlocked. I couldn't get the phone to connect to any services so I odined back to stock. I have now taken it back to stock ICS and haven't a clue what is going on.
I am attaching some screenshots as well.
The phone is Rogers, NOT unlocked, Rogers LTE sim card, on a Rogers plan including data, all the phones information indicates Rogers but when trying to connect to a network it only offers me Bell or Telus, which of course do not work.
When I go to *#*#4636#*#* and select phone information the screen is blank, then goes black, then give me the error unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped.
I have tried various radios and modems...nada
Anyone??? Please???
EDIT>>>> I realized there was no ltemobile.apn and just added this:
Name: Rogers LTE
APN: ltemobile.apn
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Note set
MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS port: 80
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
Authentication: None
APN type: *
APN enable/disable: checked
Bearer: Unspecified
Still no go
Conclusion....Nothing to be done...after literally hours off searching and trying different things with zero help, there is nothing to be done..I don't know if it got buggered up while being repaired or if something got jarred when the screen was broke. Regardless it's trash
