Hi, I'm way in over my head here and sure could use some help!
I have Galaxy S2 SkyRocket i727, gingerbread 2.3.5 that I purchased off Ebay. Great phone unfortunitly my carrier dosen't sell or support this phone. They only carried a couple smart phone choices that really wasn't much of an option so I just took their free phone hoping I could just insert my Consumer Celluar Sim into the Galaxy. Everything works fine except, no 3G data connection. I have one of the "Connect" dataplans CC offers but am unable to set the correct APN setting on this phone.
The stock AT&T rom apn setting do not allow me to enter some of settings for CC like Proxy Push.
These are CC web apn configuration settings
Name: Web
Proxy Push: Enabled
Authentication Type: Secure
GPRS access point: att.mvno
Homepage: mmsc.cingular.com
I'm wondering if I root the phone and flash a custom rom would that allow me to enter the correct APN configuration settings? Is anyone aware of a custom rom out there that would do this or have any other solutions?
Leon
I think once you're rooted and flash a custom rom on, you'll be able to enter the APN's manually. I have the skyrocket and flashed DJ ICS Plus V2.0, wickid rom btw, and I'm using it on straight talk. It allowed me to put the APN's in manually while deleting the previous APN's already on the phone.
Thanks Pak, I'll give it a try and see what happens.
Custom Rom for Galaxy S2 SkyRocket
I flashed the new ROM DJ ICS Plus V2.0 but am still not seeing how I can change the APN setting to work with my carrier Consumer Cellular.
The carrier data setting need to be
Name: US - Consumer Cellular Web
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: Enabled
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
Authentication Type: PAP
APN Type: default, supl
In the S2 Access Point Setting there isn't a field to enter Protocol and no "supl" APN choice. Also if you don't include 310 in the MCC field and 410 in the MNC field you can't save the Access Point settings at all.
In regards to MMS Protocol, I'm assuming the rom has it already preloaded to WAP 2.0 or something since thats what I needed it to be anyways so I didnt have to enter anything. For APN type, I selected "internet" for my data and when I had another APN set up for my mms, I just selected "mms". In regards to MCC and MNC, you should be able to enter the 310 and 410. It shows up on mine.
Your right about WAP already being configured because email and other connections work. Messaging works too, just not data. I tried internet and internet & mms options for the APN Type but neither worked. I also tried inputing the server name of mmsc.cingular.com as suggested on their web site for non-Consumer Cellular phones but no luck with that either.
I had to leave 310 MCC and 410 MNC values in those fields because it would not save the Access Point if left blank or with any other values input.
the link below probably wont be much help but he had his proxy set up as proxy.mvno.ccmobileweb.com, maybe that will make a difference?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=904249
I had seen this site before also, tried it but no luck either. I must be missing something altogether here. You wouldn't think this would be such a difficult problem to solve.
dude I don't know, I know you probably did this but did you put "http://mmsc.cingular.com" instead of "mmsc.cingular.com"? I dont know if the http in front will do anything.
These guys below say you can only get data using EDGE, not while 3G is turned on (mind you its an iphone). Maybe turn off your 3G and see if it picks it up?

Is your SIM card designed to handle 3G data connections? Not all SIMs are created equal, after all. Granted, you'd think that recently-made SIMs would support 3G, but you're not always going to be so lucky. I know this was a major issue once upon a time when 3G networks started to roll out more consistently and not everyone had a 3G-capable SIM.
In other words, has this SIM been able to talk to 3G networks before? Or is this the first phone you've put this SIM card in that has 3G?
If your SIM doesn't support 3G, ask your provider for a 3G-enabled replacement SIM.
Hello, I just activated my N5 on ATT. LTE/4G is working well. Calls are fine. However, I cannot send/receive SMS. I've searched the forums for the proper APN settings. I've tried a few. Still no joy. Any ideas on what could be the problem?
TIA!

Can you take it into AT&T or call? Seems like that would be the easiest way to get it fixed. I'm using their GoPhone service and have great LTE and send/receive SMS/MMS through Hangouts.

Edited to add that I went into the AT&T store to get the service set up, since I'd never used anything AT&T related before, so this is a brand new SIM on a brand new plan.

@ATT Intruder,
1) verify that you have the correct SIM card according to your data plan e.g. LTE SIM. Link provided here is for AT&T.
2) Register your OPO's IMEI number in your local carrier's system by visiting the local store & verify the status bar shows e.g. LTE next to the data connection.
I hope this helps.

Appreciate your feedback. None of that is the issue, if you click on the link you'll see what many of us are dealing with. It's a known bug.
Thanks again, I do appreciate it.

OK, Quick and dirty as usual...How to get working hotspot bypass on rooted nougat. It works on initial root or you can edit the build prop back to 310000 n reboot. Okay, so more or less follow the rooting method in godpowerrr's thread unless you're already rooted then pickup at the adding APNs below:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-s7-edge/how-to/sm-g935p-spr-root-nougat-7-0-data-t3568780 Thanks be to @godpowerrr
Follow all the steps, except just leave wifi on while you run through the process.
When you get to the steps with the build.prop edits don't do it yet.
Go into settings-connections-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names: click "add" in the top right.
Add this APN;
Name: Whatever you want to name it.......LTE HOTSPOT
APN: n.ispsn
Proxy: not set
Port: not set
Username: not set
Password: not set

MMSC: http://mms.sprintpcs.com

APN type: default,mms,dun <-----no spaces after commas
APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Turn APN on/off: APN tuned on
Bearer: LTE
Mobile virtual......: none
Mobile virtual.....: not set
NOW CLICK SAVE AND IT WILL DISAPPEAR- don't worry, it'll re-appear later.
now go back to the root guide and pick up where you left off changing the build.prop values. when you change to 310120 the new apn will populate.
This is where you need the MSL- manually select the new APN you created. Either way you should have a full functioning hotspot.
To sum it up you can add a Custom APN by changing the build.prop, creating the APN, saving, and changing it back. Have fun

I'm trying to bypass the tether check for an AT&T S7 (G930A) on Nougat... You happen to have any insight on how to port this process?
Thanks for the info, I'll do some research myself to see if I can get anywhere with it.

1st look at your normal LTE APN and write down all the info.
I'm not sure exactly what at&t has for the equivalent of ro.cdma.default_numeric but I would suppose it has something similar. search for the combined combination of your MCC and MNC. that's the number you'll want to change. as you can see from the OP, sprint is 310, and 120. so the combined numbers are 310120. you'll see the numbers when you look at your APN.
edit the build.prop line to 310000. reboot and go through the op steps to create(add) an identical APN to the one you wrote down. settings-connections-Mobile Networks-Access Point Names: click "add" in the top right. The only changes that would be made would be the name of the APN and the addition of dun to the APN type line. everything else will look just like your stock APN from earlier. make sure to click save and it will disappear. then change your build.prop line back to what it originally was and reboot. it should show up in the list of your APNs now. then, using your msl and ##data#, go into apn settings and select the new apn you created. Hope it works. pm me if you run into roadblocks, also i'd like to know the build.prop/APN info if there are issues.

Seems as though AT&T handles DUN provision checks in a fundamentally different way... Couldn't find my MMC+MNC string in build.prop.

Does this unthrottle the hotspot as well? Lol. Do you have any information on how to unthrottle the data speeds? Sprint has me throttled to 1mb speeds when i should be getting around 60mb/s.

Honestly I have no idea how sprint does their throttling. I can't say I've ever been in that situation. Give it a shot, see if it has any effect

Not sure why the ##data# dialer code wouldn't work unless you rooted at the same time and possibly missed a step or disabled the app it triggers. Make sure you click "save" after you have the new APN all written up, then it will show up when you change your build.prop back to 310120. Also make sure your editor has been granted root permissions. Just throwing a few things out there, there are so many little things you could've possibly missed.

It turns out, I'm pretty stupid. Apparently didn't know how to spell DATA. That or it just started working randomly. However, when testing I still get "You have not subscribed to the Hotspot service"
I've checked and after the ##DATA# and entering my MSL I'm able to select the custom APN. It just wont allow tether. I don't know if it makes a difference, but I'm rooted on 7.0 Nougat S7 Edge

double check the apn you selected, once you have the "dun" segment there it shouldn't say that. also might want to throw in a full powerdown and reboot, might be residual.

Thank you for the help. Without it and your guide I wouldn't have gotten it working. I combined your guide with another (both had different settings) and found a combination that works for me.
If anyone is having issues like I did, follow izzibew26's original guide, but instead Authentication Type: not set change to Authentication Type: None
