Let the yelling begin. Just got my G2x from ebay
Used the Nokia E71 sim that I already own
Straighttalk tech support said I need to get a new sim and phone number.
ATT said I do not need a new sim. SO i came here
Phone works, texting works, WiFi works after setting apn= ATT.mvno
sw=p999-V21e
FW=2.3.3
Baseband M6600A-Acautnz-2.0.9720T-1

any ideas.
so if everything works, whats the problem?
the problem is no data . no internet
That would be a sim issue. You may need an unlock code to have access. Other wise check your vpns

unlock code
I think the phone is unlocked. That is they way it was sold . Says t-mobile on it but when calling or txting displays att ( that is the nokia e71 sim ), and the the att.mvno that I entered .
How do I check if it is unlocked?
If its unlocked it should all work. http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html Try looking through here. US is almost all the way at the bottom. Not sure exactly what your using. Not sure if you need the sim carrier or the baseband carrier.
Edit: oh, and if you have access to the phone when you put your sim card in, you said your making calls and sending texts. Yeah, your phones unlocked. The internet thing though is a little weird.
straight talk g2x
It could be the way straighttalk connects to internet. The sim from E71 nokia works with I phones and straighttalk can't find any info why it wouldn't work with android. Thanks for your input.
Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
Here are the steps I used to get MMS working on Moto Backflip with Android 2.1
First download Apn Backup and Restore app from app store, and delete all existing APNs. Then manually enter APNs. In android you must have 2 apns setup for mms to work (at least in my case).
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.

it works 2g where I am now but I am in
Did you get the data to work? I've been considering going to ST. I've had them before, and for a prepaid company, had really good experience with the service in my area. The same can't be said for Tmo
Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
yes it works. The configuration I used is posted a few days ago. The speed for connection shows 2g. Other than that it works well. I am looking for the code to get 3g now. If you read the code above you will see the words tracfone. That is a 2g network ( I think ). I think I have to change that.
Well it's all the same company. Not sure how they handle that. I wonder if it might have something to do with using the SIM you used, (which would make ST right when they said you need a new one.) In any case, I'll just be buying a SIM from them to use on my phone, so maybe it'll work out fine. Unfortunately, I'm still under contract at the moment, so it may be a little while longer.
Straight Talk works well on the default Tmobile ROM, but I just upgraded to Eagles Blood and the T-Mobile SIM settings do not work at all on Straight Talk (for MMS+Internet). Does anyone know of a fix?
These are my settings:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: wap.tracfone.com
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Thanks!

Yeah my phone works fine using the stock LG G2X, but won't work once I load a custom ROM on straight talk (or SIMPLE mobile).

And dont tell me to use the search box. If you know a better way to search be my guest and let me know. Maybe I dont know the terms used that will yield good search results.
It seems to me that every one abandoned the TP2 before ST = (StraightTalk) started the Bring Your Own Phone Program so this may have never been discussed yet.
So I got the voice, SMS and data working. But my phone is still trying to connect to sprints server to download the pictures people sent me via MMS. Where do I input the MMS settings ST gave me? The only setting I could find was for APN and when I updated that the data started working. The rest of the fields are not there with the APN.
I am using the AT&T sim from Strait Talk. I have the Sprint TP2 with my Straight Talk sim card in it. Set to GSM only. The worst part is EDGE speed is slower then Sprints 1X.
A nice guy help me fix this here at this link in post 2 and 3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28468462#post28468462
Hi all
As a T-mobile UK customer I have been finding that I lose internet on my phone every 6 or 7 days, typically lasting for about 6 hours.
During my last converstaion with support I mentioned that i had the following in the APN settings
[email protected]
They seem to think that it might be a Tmobile USA profile and hence the problem (how the wrong APN could work for 95% of the time is beyond me).
I did take the handset to the USA last year but did not have data roaming turned on. Does anyone know how i ended up with the wrong APN? A quick google search returns no results for the APN listed...
I have since manually changed the APN and things seem ok (for now).

Whoops.... I have just found out where the the APN settings came from.
In an attempt to get my MMS working I just ran the HTC Connection Manager. For the first time in 1.5 years my MMS is working but I have noticed that my new APN settings say [email protected]
So it seems that HTC use APNs that T-mobile UK are not familiar with? Annoyingly I have no way of viewing the new APN or editing it
Does anyone know which settings the HTC connection manager uses? I am concerned that although MMS is working, if my internet connection goes down again, the UK helpdesk might just shrug their shoulders and pass the buck to HTC, who in turn will pass it back
Ok so I spoke to HTC UK today, they told that they have no way of finding out what APN their app uses, they suggested that I use the generic T-mobile APN that they have on their system, which I did and the MMS stopped working again.... so I ran their app and alll is fine again (for now).
I guess that I will have to try to email HTC. It is rather annoying that MS decided that customers shouldn't be allowed to see existing APNs.
I do have a dev account, tbh I only subscribed so that I could get mango early, if that means that I can sideload something that will show me the APN in use then please feel free to point me in the right direction.
Cheers
First time poster and a real newby when it comes to tweaking phones.
I have an unlocked LG V20 which I purchased (and really like) from T-Mobile. I am trying to use it with Consumer Cellular. I have gotten it to work sometimes but it connects very seldom.
I had to set up the APN settings manually which seems weird but like I said, it works - sometimes.
Currently, I cant seem to send texts or even call anyone. The phone says it's registered on the network.
I was having an issue with it de-selecting the APN settings I had made (and saved) for Consumer Cellular. As it was a T-mobile phone, I figured it was trying to go back to the T-Mobile APN so I figured out how to delete the T-Mobile APN. I also deleted all other APN choices except the one I had made for Consumer Cellular. Now it seems to keep the CC APN selected but only for a short time. After awhile, it will de-select the APN so there is no APN selected at all.
Now it cant make calls at all
I am also getting an "er082" error (red phone icon) regarding WiFi calling.
Any help would be much appreciated. I really like this phone and would like it to work
Thanks,
Jim
Just wanted to document here how I got Xfinity Mobile working with OnePlus 8T (Unlocked). Putting the SIM card in had SMS and voice calls working but NO data whatsoever (this phone only supports 4G on Verizon/Xfinity Mobile network). Spoke to multiple reps on the phone and chat...no help.
Reading through other forums I decided to just go in and edit the APN (I could not add a new one) but setting it to COMCAST.RSLR.VZWENTP "magically" made it work with Xfinity Mobile.
Hey there! Came across your thread, considering switching to xfinity mobile.
What method did you use to change APN?
Did you change any other APN variables?

as far as i know, you can change apn in android carrier settings.
I noticed my mobile data was not working so thought I would check the APN settings.
The Comcast one no longer worked for me but changing to the Verizon (VZWINTERNET) one did. I'm not sure what, if anything, changed but just wanted to keep this page updated.
I missed some replies earlier but I didn't change anything else in the APN settings but the name.
