I am currently using the Android Desire rom V4 and i need to manually turn on my APN... I dont know how to please someone help
ASK IN THE ANDROID THREADS FFS,
sick of these Android questions today
download & install "text edit" app on phone and open file system/ect/apns-conf.xml and change apns "6" to "8" and hit the phones menu button to save changes.
Go back and open the Network APN setting screen and now hit the phones menu button again and you should now be able to add a new APN.

I want to flash the phone. The company is Centennial in Puerto Rico the only thing i know is that is a gsm phone. If I do the RUU with the files arround doing the goldcard process, the APN setting will be gone?
see my original answer and stop being lazy...
You can check the apn settings now dude just write them down and flash!
Settings > Wireless Controls > Mobile Nework Settings > "Acces Point Names"
Just click the one with the green checkmark, write down all the settings and enter them the same way after flashing.
P.S. I don't know if this is the right section to post this dude

Try this tutorial. It's not for MX2 but its still for ICS and its what I did to get my MMS working on Cspire.

I too have bluegrass and could not get MMS to work forever. Finally I found the right combination of fixes that works for me (and has been replicated on all my coworkers devices). I am using this on Eclipse 2.3 on my MX2. I do not know if it will work for other carriers or other ROMs. Use at your own risk.
First, you will need root (which you have if you are on a custom rom), and you will need a file explorer that let's you browse with root permissions (I use ES File Explorer with root options set in settings).
Browse to /system/etc/ and replace apns-conf.xml with all the .xml files from the Conf folder in the attached Conf.zip file. I am not sure why there are so many, I copied them from a stock Bluegrass MX2. (Feel free to make a backup of your original apns-conf.xml prior to replacement).
Now, browse to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ and delete the 3 .db files here. (Again, make a backup if you wish). This will remove your existing text messages off your device!
Restart your device.
Now download "APN Settings Shortcut" from the Play Store. This is not an app or widget, but an actual shortcut. Press and hold on an empty space on your home screen and choose Shortcut and then APN Settings Shortcut.
Once it opens, hit menu and then new. Populate all fields with the following settings:
Name
Bluegrass Cellular (this doesn't matter, can be named anything)
APN
internet
Proxy

Now click menu and save.
Your MMS now works!

All credit goes to them, I just kept trying fixes until one worked for me, and it ended up taking a combination of three.

Self Bumping an old post so that anyone still in need can get some additional for ICS roms.
You can edit the APN information on ICS roms (or at least the latest CM9 Beta) by opeing Voice Dialer (it is a preinstalled app) and saying:
A P Ns
Then choose Open APNs. Hit the menu button and choose new, then enter the same information listed above. Hit the menu button again and choose save. Reboot and enjoy MMS on ICS.
Just ran across this on another forum... anybody tried this, I don't have time right now, might look at it later, the menu comes up but I didn't have time to get any further than that.

Hello,
yes, now we finally found a solution.
Do exactly as described:
Download Settings Database Editor from playstore and open it
Look for hw_networkmode_preference and edit the stock value "9,6,2,1" to "11"
Restart the device
Open Settings Database Editor
Click on + Add new setting at the top
Type "hw_add_4g_only" (without " ") and press save changes
Type in your country code, example "502" Malaysia or "262" Germany. Press save changes
Type "hw_add_4g_only" (without " ") and press save changes (YES, REPEAT STEP 6)
Type in your country code, example "502" Malaysia or "262" for Germany and press save changes (YES, REPEAT STEP 7)
Restart the device and VOILA!
Now you have access to ALL network modes. Select "LTE" or "4G" for 4G only functionality.
Like this, you have stable Internet nearly where ever you go, without dropping back to overcrowded 2G/3G Networks.
Best,
Stefan
p.s.: thanks to ronald_loulan for original solution!
will this work when travelling to other countries?
It's work
Thank you very much
Edit: got it working 4g only now.
One question though, the UK country code is 234 and 235.
Do I add both numbers and just separate them with a comma?
Thanks.

Here is what work for me.
If you already had a hauwei phone and used "setedit" and you now upgraded to you Mate 20 pro with using the "phone clone" app.
You will notice the "setedit" app won't be copied over. So head on over to "play store" and download it.
Follow the steps give in this thread to enter all the setting on the "setedit" app.
Restart your device. You will see it didn't work. No problem. Just uninstall the "setedit" app and restart your device.
Now go to your mobile network setting and you will see you will have all the setting for networks including 4g only.
you can try this at teknokia site
