Hi everyone,
My company has bought his own APN. Now we are trying to send the APN settings to many Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 that the company owns.
I know that some operators (like Vodafone) can send an SMS to an smartphone and that the smartphone understands it and automatically gets the settings and configures the APN.
Could someone tell me if it's posible to send (via email or sms) my own APN settings?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings.
depends on your service provider

Hi,
I've just moved my XDA 2 away from an o2 contract to Pay As You Go with Tesco.
I can't get my GPRS to work and after contacting Tesco several time, they are now saying that you cannot use GPRS on an XDA 2 on a provider OTHER THAN o2, because of some pre-set settings that can't be changed. I can view pda.o2.co.uk when connected to GPRS, but that's it.
Is this true? Is there a workaround? Does anyone have GPRS working on Tesco or any non o2 provider (if they were originally on o2)?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

i can't speak directly for Tesco's pay as you go service, but I have had no problem accessing GPRS on my XDAII, which was bought under a 1 year contract in UK, after moving to Malaysia (on a local M'sian carrier).
what i do have trouble is, however, is setting the gprs up for mms services. Apparently on my cousin's xdaIIs bought here, mms services require connection to a separate gprs account, which can be specified on his mms settings but not on mine. and we can't seem to find anything different in the changeable settings! o well. i have no one to mms anyway...
somynex if you want help setting up your mms I can gladly assist. Its accually really easy. You have to set up your proxy on my work network. Just im me if you want some help.

No-one have any ideas? I think I'll likely move to o2 pay as you go.
Thanks
Hey guys,
I cannot send (probably also receive) a MMS message, my gprs settings should be fine because I'm able to download weather information, I did allready a soft and hard reset.
I get messages on my screen:
connecting to Vodafone MMS
and then cannot make connection
what am I doing wrong?
thanks in advance
Maybe you should mess around a bit with the Vodafone settings. With the normal Vodafone settings received from the network I can open internet pages, but I cannot receive e-mails. When I change the settings to NOT use a proxy, both work fine. Maybe this works for you too.
Mmm.... I had to create special connection with special settings to be able to send MMS. But my provider (which is Vodafone partner) provided all info to me...

I'm changing things for days now.
disabling the proxy was a nice idea but no change.

I use the settings provided from vodafone.
this really disapoints me, such a great phone, but I can't let it send a picture. next week I go to a city which has a vodafone shop, but I think there will be seller person who cannot help me...
hope someone got a great idea, or someone with vodafone (NL) can tell me all his settings...
deechte and Bodisson, both thanks for your time! I appreciate that!

Fortunately I am on Vodafone NL, but I have a business subscription.
My AP: office.vodafone.nl, but for non-business users I think it's supposed to be live.vodafone.com.
Username: vodafone
Pass: vodafone
I'm not using a proxy.
I finaly managed to get it working
I changed so much now I don't know what did the trick... but I don't care about that now.
thanks for the replys
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.

Hey guys, I flashed a Verizon ROM to my Chat Mobility HTC One m8, because Chat Mobility uses Verizon for their LTE network, but in the process it deleted my MMS server settings, or rather reset them to Verizon's servers. Everything else seems to work fine though, but does anyone have the server address for Chat Mobility? I've looked all over the web, even tried customer service, but they don't have any idea. As far as I can tell, they get their MMSC through Interop, according a press release from a year ago.

If you can give us a call back we would like to help you get your MMS settings re-established. Dial 611 on your phone and ask for Connie or Macey.

While I appreciate the attempt, I was hoping to restore my MMS settings WITHOUT re-flashing my device.
Bump. Am I really the only one in the country who has a smartphone on Chat Mobility?
I've narrowed down their MMSC server: mms.iot1.com/chatmobility/mms.php
Now I just need the proxy and port and all should be well. Thanks in advance guys!

Hi
Did you upgrade the bootloader and modem as they recommend?
Also check your APN and see if they are correct , check with your carrier they will provide the information , in most cases if you delete them and re start the phone the carrier will send the information automatically

Hi
not sure what you mean , normally your carrier will send that information automatically , if you place a new sim the sim´s carrier will send that information.
Go settings / mobile networks / Access Points Names there you you can see what you have ask your carrier for the correct information and review them or just reset them and reboot , here is resend automatically and configure by itself
What network mode you have selected?

If i am not mistaken the SMS service uses the GSM (2G) band , try and enable that band to see if it works

Ok thankz
With stock firmware, I can receive SMS sent via email. I have tried a few S7 flat custom ROMS and all prevent me from receiving SMS sent by email.
This seems to be the case also when I was still using S6. So what is it with custom ROMS that prevents receiving SMS via email?
Thanks

did you ever figure out what the issue was not receiving texts?

I never did. I just eventually found a custom ROM that did not have that issue. Forgot which one.
I am now on S8 snap dragon. If you still using S7 exynos, you might want to try Black Diamond by @Kill-Switch.

id be willing to wager that it was the APN. Many custom ROMs build in the APNs to make their ROM foolproof. Dollars to doughnuts its the APN
Is there a way to override the rom's apn? Tello (Sprint MVNO) automatically configures the network settings and doesn't allow to adjust and when I used a RedPocket GSMA (ATT MVNO) sim card, I was able to insert their apn info but still was not able to receive sms text messages.
As a workaround, I am using my Google Voice number forwarded to the phone and all texts are received as long as I have wifi or data connection. Not perfect but it's better than nothing.
BTW, I am working on an LG X Charge SP320 but posted here because of a google search and relevance to the issue in general.
Thanks for the insights and any suggestions.
