[Q] APN and Data Help - General Questions and Answers

Hello, Im hoping someone could help me.
I live in a rual area in Arizona. We only have one carrier and its Cellular One. From my understanding its totaly
different than the Cellular One on the East Coast.
All the phones they sell are unbranded. Wether its a cheal flip Nokia or the GS3, their unbranded and most are the
International versions.
I like to use unlocked phone's from either tmobile or att. However I always have a problem with data.
Cell One offers 2 different Internet packages, here are the apn's for their data.
Basic Internet-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Smart Phone Internet-
apn= isp.cellularoneaz.net
no proxy or port.
MMS-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
mmsc= mmsc.c1neaz.csky.us:6672
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Here is where my problem is. Lets say I enter the basic Internet setting and the MMS settings in the phone. My internet
will work and so will pic msg's. However I cant download anything or i cant login to Facebook. Every site I try works except
Facebook.
Now if I change the apn's to Smart Phone Internet then all data works downloads, facebook etc. But picture msg will not work.
It only happens with unlocked att or tmobile phones. If I use one of their phones its not a problem.
Sorry the post is long... hopefully someone can help me figure it out.

AW: [Q] APN and Data Help
Asked the Hotline to send you a message with the right apn settings? They send a text message that sets all the required inputs. Or add one apn with the mobile Internet details and another one with the mms settings.

Web and Walk on any 3g phone?

Hi,
Could someone tell me if I could simply put a T-Mobile sim with web and walk tarrif into the trinity or any other non T-Mobile 3g phone and still get free internet access and msn messenger. Or do I specifically have to use their phones with their own version of browsers and messenger.
Need to know this before deciding which network and phone to go for.
Thanks
I have the same question
I have a SPV-M3100, but I don't know how to get connection settings for
T-Mobile Web n Walk service.
I have searched the forum, but no clear result.
Thank you first if anyone can have an idea.
here in the Netherlands you could do that. You should be able to get a sim-only with w&w and put that sim in any unlocked phone. This is not a logical choice here in the Netherlands since we get great deals when combined with a T-mobile branded phone. T-mobile the Netherlands is promoting some nokia phones as well...(N73)
Shouldn't be a problem - I've used my WnW SIM in several WM 3G and non 3G phones. Just set the apn / usrname / password to
GPRS APN address: general.t-mobile.uk
Username : user
Password: wap
and left everything else at default.

[Q] Mobilicity Nexus s 9020t MMS / picture downloading issue

Whenever I receive a text with pictures, it displays a downloading bar. When i click on it, it turns into a "downloading" and nothing happens. I've talked with customer support and they've suggested to add the apn on their site even though the phone already came with it by default. I don't have a data plan yet, so I'm not sure if this might be the problem. Any ideas?
Bump, anyone have this trouble also?
Tried calling for custom support, used the right settings for APN. Still cannot send pictures.
Data plan
Well, MMS does use the data and if you dont have a data plan and you are on prepaid service, you might not be able to use data at all. I'm pretty sure that in Mobilicity's case, the data used by MMS is just counted out of your data plan, its not a sepperate MMS messaging charge or anything like that. Also, make sure you have the correct APN settings, they have it on their website.
I do have the correct APN settings, MOWAP and MOMMS as detailed here.
Mobilicity has MMS for all their plans, regardless of data plan. That was exactly my first assumption that since I did not have a data plan, that pictures were not sending or receiving through.
Anyone have a nexus s with mobilicity experiencing the same problem? I've been calling custom support 6 times now, being asked to visit a local dealer, to a warranty support dealer, to back to the customer support help, and then to the samsung customer support. I've been going in circles, tried using a "demo" sim card in one of the mobilicity dealer place, no fix.
I don't have data plan. i can receive and sent mms
my settings
Name- T-Mobile US
apn- wap.voicestream.com
proxy 216.155.165.050
port 8080
mmsc- htpp://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
mms proxy 216.155.165.050
mms port 8080
mcc 310
mnc 260
in order to receive or sent mms you have to check "data enabled "
Well, I got my problem fixed! Apparently you DO need a data plan to receive pictures over mms. The plan states that phones can receive them without the data plan, but smartphones handles pictures differently than regular phones.
I tested out at one of the local stores, and it works. Not sure if like you said, I just need to have "data" on, or actually have the data plan. I'll try the first when my month runs out. Thanks!
Sorry for the bump but i thought it would be better than creating a new thread for the same problem. anyhow, I've recently picked up a nexus s from mobi (with the $25 data plan) and im having problems with the MMS. I usually get a message with the size details, and a "download" button, same problem as you had, it changes to "downloading", then nothing happens.
If i scroll up in the conversation so that the "downloading" button disappears, then scroll down, it's just back to "download." Sometimes (maybe 10% of the time), the message will come up as it should, with no "download" button, the picture just shows up.
ive double and triple checked that the APN settings are 100% correct, so that can't be the problem. I manually updated to the official release of ICS 4.0.3 (from this thread) last night, but it didnt work before either (came stock with 2.3.4) Sorry for the life story, but thanks for any help.

[Q] Switching Network Profile

Hi guys, first post here...been reading for a while though.
I have a bit of a problem with my LG Optimus Quantum. It was prepaid on Bell (Canada), so I unlocked it and have been using it with my Fido SIM. I can get SMS and calls to work, caller display works periodically, and MMS cannot work at all. If I set the APN I can also get 3g to work (but I don't have data so I leave it off).
I tried switching the network profile in MFG but where there should be a list of XML files there is nothing..just a black area.
Is there a way I can edit the xml file with the network configuration? I noticed after viewing it still points to all the bell mms servers and such. There is also nowhere for me to add proxies to the APN for the mms in the MFG.
I like me my picture messages

[Q] Using Cell (Nexus4) + Telus Flex (for ipad) + VOIP (Fongo). APN Configuration

EDIT: SOLVED!!!!
turns out that Telus somehow makes your phone switch from isp.telus.com to sp.telus.com. You must delete any SP.Telus.com APNs. Just to be saved, I deleted all the preset APN's and added my own with no Proxy or Port no. **additionally, i had a security app that was sending texts that there was an unauthorized SIM in my phone. If you have any security app in your phone, make sure you log into it and register the SIM, otherwise it will send texts using the tablets number which will be very expensive.
Hello. This is my first post and I'm sorry if i break any rules, but I haven't found any solution after several days of research.
I have a Nexus 4, Root, Cyanogenmod 10.3, 4.3.
Today I went to Telus and got a SIM that i said was for an ipad so that i could use a Data-only Flex plan with Voip app (Fongo).
I have used this for about a year with Fido, but I liked the Flex bracketing used by Telus.
When I put the SIM in the phone, I went straight to The APN settings. there were three APNs there, one sp.kooddo, one sp.telus, and one isp.telus. I know ipads require the APN isp.telus.com so i selected the last (isp.telus.com), however after use of 1mb, my account showed pay-per-use usage amounting to $6. the preset isp.telus is named "Telus SP Tether." I'm thinking the problem might still be in the APN name. I deleted both the sp.telus ones just to be extra safe.
I added an APN as recommended on the Telus site for ipads/tablets:
APN: isp.telus.com
Proxy: 74.49.0.18
Port: 80
the preset isp.telus.com (Telus SP Tether) had proxy and port empty, but their MMA proxy and MMS port had the above settings.
I don't know if this is was the problem.
There was one thread on XDA about successful setup of Telus tablet flex data SIM in GS3, however, i could not follow their steps because of different menu functionality in the N4. (thread)
OP recomended to make APN, then press BACL instead of SAVE, and then select Radio Button. But if i go back without saving, the APN is cleared and there is no Radio Button.
Telus had put $10 worth of charges for text messages i didn't send. I had Telus block sending and receiving texts, but they still go through and get charged. strangely it's to my moms and borthers cells and its at exact same times (to the second) (e.g. Telus has it that I sent 7 messages at exactly each of these times to both contacts: 3:00:00, 4:00:00, 5:00:00, and 10:00:00). I have no idea what these are....
Additionally, Telus never asked for my IMEI (Fido did require an IMEI of an ipad). when i called in to Telus, they read back the IMEI they had, and it was of the N4. could they be blocking me access to FLEX plan and forcing me into pay as you go?
Thank you for all your help.

Networks works, but no cellular data - Help me please <3

Hi guys.
Alright, so i just got a HTC One M8 with Windows, and it seems to work fine on regular network (calling, texting etc.) but i cannot for the life of me get data working.
I've set the APN correctly and it shows H+, but webpages do not load.
Have anyone experienced anything like it before?
There is some options i can change in Service Tools (##778#) that could look like it could do something. I really hope anyone can help me :')
Regards
Marc
*My carrier is Denmark Telia
APN:
Name: Telia
Proxyserver: www.internet.mtelia.dk
Port: 80

Network works,but no cellular data
Hi,
I am using this phone in India. I was also facing the same issue where H+ shows but data does not work. Later on in APN settings i just filled the APN address. Leave the all the other fields like proxy and port blank. Just add the APN name. It should work. Also make sure that the country is chnaged to ur current one . Data does not wrk if we set it as US. I made the above chnages and now everything works fine call and DAta.
