I'm trying to get a friends phone working for them in Chile and I can't edit the apn settings on his Stratosphere 2. In the APN settings there is no option to add a new APN. It's a global phone and voice works fine with entel, the provider down here, and I know what the new settings need to be. I thought it would be easy to just edit the APN but the menu to do so is hidden. The only option I have within the APN is reset to defaults. Anyone have any info to help me out? Do I need to unlock the phone to do this? If I do, can anyone point me in the right direction to do that?
Thanks for the help!

Hello all,
I am very excited to have android working on my RHOD400, I installed Froyo 2.2 (FRX06) and everything seems to working great, even Wifi works. However, my data plan does not work at all... I can't browse any websites or connect to the Android market without using my wifi connection...
Does anyone know what could be the issue? I have tried many kernels and the problem still exists... I checked the APN settings under the Android Network setting and everything appears to be blank... is this the problem?
Any advice would be great!
Thanks!
Hi, simply search for the relevant apn settings for your carrier and enter them manually. Who are you with?
A new install cant tell who your with so you have to set this up yourself

thanks for the reply, i have sprint network ... would anyone be willing to share their apn settings for sprint? thanks!
anyone? I tried googling my sprint APN but am not getting any relevant results.
I have a Rhod400, also on Sprint Network. I searched for the APN for Sprint and it appears there is no APN for Sprint since they are a CDMA carrier. But I also found some people say SPRINT APN = internet.com Does anyone know for sure?
Hello,
I've been putting off asking the question as I thought that somebody else had to have gone through this already but I've had poor luck looking through the forum and Google hasn't been able to help.
I'll be traveling to Italy in the near future with my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 (Build KOT49H.I535VRUDNE1). I would like to pick up a TIN or WIND SIM while I'm there, primarily for data usage. From what I've read, once I install the 3rd party SIM, I'll need to update the APN settings to get data to work.
Stock, it looks like the APN settings are uneditable. I rooted the phone with towelroot (if only everything were so easy) and then checked the APN settings to see if I could add another network. No dice.
Poking around on the web, it looks like in the past, people have been able to work around this by downloading build prop editor and adding the following two lines:
ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL
I gave this a shot and was surprised to see the APN menu gone when I went back into my network settings. Through trial and error, I determined that the inclusion of ro.csc.sale_code=LOL changes my Mobile Networks options from:
- Mobile Data
- Global Data Roaming Access
- Roaming
- Signal Strength
- Network Mode
- Access Point Names
- Network Operators
to:
- Mobile Data
- Data Roaming
- Network Mode (GSM is not an option in here)
- System Select
- Dial Up Networking
There is no option to modify APN settings there. Am I missing something silly? Did something change in KitKat 4.4.2 that has caused this approach to "unlocking" the APN settings to become invalid? Is everything really ok and I'll have access to the APN settings when I insert the italian carrier's SIM card?
I'm game for other approaches as well. At one point, I thought I saw an article that talked about setting up a pointer to the APN settings prior to updating the prop file but I haven't been able to relocate that.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Aaron
In the event somebody else is looking for the answer, I got my hands on a TIM sim card today, installed it in the phone and the APN menu reappeared and let me enter a new APN. Looks like the answer as of today for this phone is TowelRoot, SuperSU, BuildProp and install the 3rd party sim.
Take care,
Aaron
Hello,
Am having problems with my sprint s6 edge after I updated it to marshmallow. The data has not shown up so I cant really use my data if am far from wifi and my network operator doesnt show up. Can anyone help me with files to get it working as I love my s6 edge.
Is it possible that if I root the Sprint s6 edge and install a custom roms, the data will be back working? If that will work, can I get the files to root it and the possible available roms I can run on it. Plz help. Tnx
You need to setup APN. Go to Setting -> Mobile networks - >Access Point Names then click Add
In here you can config your APN infomation, the APN information you can ask your telecom network service.
Example my APN (i'm using Viettel in Vietnam):
Name: Viettel
APN: v-internet
no user name and no password.
Remember, that is my APN information from my telecom network service.
It's not work for you, you must ask your telecom network service for that information.
The APN is not showing up
The Apn is not even showing up at all. Does that mean it is locked or what? Kindly help me out. Tnx

APN will not show automatically. You need to add new APN by yourself. Follow my guide to do that.
I called Sprint and they gave me the MSL code for my phone. When I try to change the APN settings all of the settings are greyed out but a few choices and of course not the APN type. ( I am trying to get the hotspot working without rooting it. Any ideas anyone?
I guess I will have to root the phone. I really don't want to but I guess I have no choice.
Hi Crusader,
I'm with Sprint and my phone is rooted and still have no access to many options under APN settings. Did you find a way out? Please share.

Do you have the carriers APN settings ?
Yes I have the settings....I get these errors though....
"Sim not provisioned" but it works in my iPhone and under apn settings it says "Access point Name settings are not available for this user"
This may help.

Had the same problem. If you have root you can try the method above. Seeing that it can work. But if you have no root then it won't work. But I found out that I couldn't change Verizon's apn. But sticking a att Sim and you have the option to add or edit for the att Sim card. Why I don't know. I wonder what other apns will be locked.
