Trying to set up my new X10 mini pro for service on ATT USA. Running into some setup snags.
Have already rooted!
Model is U20i
Have network mode set to GSM / WCDMA preferred
Network operators setting has ATT and ATT DR available. WILL NOT let me select ATT only DR - if I try ATT it says "your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"
How do I get off of ATT DR and onto ATT?
Under APN I put in:
name - att
apn - wap.cingular
proxy - wireless.cingualar.com
port - 80
username - not set
password - not set
server - not set
mmsc - http://mmsc.cingular.com
mms proxy - wireless.cingular.com
mms port - 80
mcc - 310
mnc - 410
apn type - not set
Should I be worrying about data roaming? Im fairly certain thats what the DR in att dr stands for. I understand if 3G isnt possible. But data roaming.yikes.
Have you checked what operator the sim gives you in a 2G only phone? You sadly wont be able to get 3G, you'd have to track down a u20a variant for that.

I updated my phone to the 2.2 unbranded ROM and without thinking I did not copy down the APN settings first. I was able to find the settings to connect to the 3G network on Virgins website but I can not find the Canadian MMS settings anywhere. Does anyone have a stock rom or the MMS settings? They would be greatly appreciated!
You probably already figured this out, but I'm going to post these anyway for people finding this thread through google.

Tried to get a pix that was sent to me last night, and it could not open it. Any Ideas would be appreciated.
Contacted Virgin Mobile, and the info is correct, however the data setting has to be on for it to work!
I could not find an answer using search, so my apologies if this was previously answered.
I just purchased an unlocked SGSII (International version) and wondering if anyone had success getting it working with AT&T? I tried using a SIM from my Galaxy S/Captivate phone and changed the bands to 850/1900 in ServiceMode to no avail.
Can someone post working settings for phone and data use? Also, do I need to call AT&T to "activate" my new phone?
You must have done some pretty ****ty searches. I typed in Galaxy S II AT&T APN and this is what I got:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109983
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175006
I added the APN like the posts you referenced, but the S2 still says GPRS and mobile network state 'Connecting'. My captivate just uses the SIM APN settings and gets UMTS/HSDPA.
Mobile network settings:
Use packet data - Enabled
Network mode - GSM/WCDMA (Auto)

Sorry I should have been more descriptive in my original post. Baseband version is XXKH3 and I tried Cognition ROM to see if a different ROM/modem would help. Someone lead me to the Service Mode menu (*#*#197328640#*#*) to try changing Debug>Phone Control>Network Control>Band Selection from Automatic to just the AT&T frequencies, but that does not change the status.
Please excuse the noobness. Any ideas? Thanks!
Just an update.. it seems that the "International" version I'm using is the Korean/Olleh branded model (SHW-M250K). A couple of threads mentioned that it only works single (900) or dual band (900/2100) UMTS, which would explain why it is only connecting via GPRS.

Is there anyway I can enable or unlock those frequencies? Otherwise, I'll have to return the phone since it does not work on AT&T 3G.
I have tmobile when inserted the simcard in my z2 I've noticed that I'm not getting any internet connection so i went to Setting/wireless and networks/internet setting and downloaded all the files then I went to mobile netword and changed it to 4G Tmobile, starting that day I keep losing connection every time I have to go to mobile network and change it manually although it's set on automatic, most of teh times 4g doesn't work and I have to set it to 3g... it's really annoying
In your dial pad type in *#*#info#*#* (numbers for info)
Go to phone info
Scroll down
Select prefered network mode
Select LTE or an option for local with
Go back to your network settings and see if 4G shows up
If not change your mode back to what it was before and call tmobile because they may have to sort some issues out for you

go to your network settings, when tmobile USA shows up with 4G click it to register, once thats done, go back a menu and click on network mode and change it to LTE/HSPDA/GSM (or what ever bands are used in USA)
you should have data connection but 4G depends on how good Tmobile USA Coverage is
You may need to call TMo and ask them to do whatever they do in the backend to reset the phone to network connection. Another thing is to look at TMo support site for the correct APN settings. In my case, data was perfect but MMS would not work because the phone settings were incorrect. Basically, call TMo. They will even email you the settings.
One last thing. Try airplane mode off then on and see it that helps.

One thing I would do, is to call T-Mobile and register the IMEI so they can provision the unit. The settings on their end may have something which is preventing it to connect to it based on a previous phone's capabilities.
-----------------
I had something similar similar but it was with AT&T. In my case, it would not connect to LTE at all as it would stick on HPSA. This was because I had a S3 (UK version), which was only capable of HSPA+, and I had registered the IMEI with them prior.
I had a lot of problems getting my Z2 to work on T-Mobile as well. I finally used the following settings to get everything to work.
Create 2 APNs, the first should have the Following Settings:
Name: T-Mobile
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy: 216.155.165.050
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/
MMS proxy: 216.155.165.50
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: defaul,supl,admin,dun,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Now create a second APN with the following settings:
Name: T-Mobile GPRS
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
With both of those created, go to your list of APNs and make sure your first one (T-Mobile) is selected.
These settings fixed my problems, hope you get it worked out.

I had a similar issue, is that why my phone doesn't have signal with tmobile cause I have to register the IMEI?

It is likely, make sure the internet/mms settings are downloaded too.
Once the IMEI is registered, they will able to see what phone it is and enable the proper features which the phone is capable of.
I heard it's best to let them know as the IMEI as well because they could flag the unauthorized phones and reject it from being connected the carrier.
Hi guys, I’m having some problems with my girlfriend phone and I’d like to ask your opinion about it.
We both have a tariff with three UK which includes sms, calls and data roaming, and we both have a Samsung Galaxy S5: I bought it in Italy (it was new), while she bought hers here in UK and it was a second hand unlocked smartphone.
Now, the problem is that, despite her phone works nicely in UK, every time we go back to Italy her data roaming doesn’t work at all, while the phone calls and the sms work properly
(the option data roaming is of course enabled).
On the other hand, my phone works perfectly both in UK and in Italy, and we also tested her SIM card in my S5, and in that case data roaming works just fine.
Here a list of tests that we did:
My SIM in her phone -> no data roaming
Her SIM in my phone -> everything works fine
change the Network mode mode in all the possibile options -> CDMA, LTE/CDMA, GSM/UMTS, Automatic
Reconfiguration of the APN settings -> they are the same in both our phones, I report them below:
Name: 3
APN: threeDOTcoDOTuk
Proxy: Not set
Port: not set
Username: not set
Password: not set
Server: not set
MMSC: http : // mmsDOTumDOTthreeDOTcoDOTuk : 10021 / mmsc
MMS proxy: mmsDOTthreeDOTcoDOTuk
MMS port: mmsDOTthreeDOTcoDOTuk
MMS port: 8799
MCC: 234
MNC: 20
Authentication type: Not set
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Enable/disable APN: APN enable
Bearer: Unspecified
Mobile virtual network operator type: None
Mobile virtual network operator value: Not set
The only “difference” (if we can call it so) is in Network mode option:
mine is “LTE/3G/2G (auto connect)”
her is “GSM/WCDMA/LTE (auto connect)”
but I don’t think it actually matters.
So, has any of you any idea of what else I can try to fix this annoying problem?
Rooting the phone and putting on another ROM may be of some help?
I have really no idea, so any suggestion is very welcome!
Thank you very much
I have tried an AT&T sim card and a T-Mobile sim card in the new phone, but I have been unable to get LTE to work? Does anyone else have this new phone? If so, what carrier are you using and what APN settings are working for you? Better yet, what APN settings dictate the phone to use LTE? I want to use the phone on AT&T. I currently use a V35 on AT&T and when I put the SIM card from it into the Armor 6E, I cannot get LTE. I have tried numerous APN settings without any luck. Can anyone help?
Well a quick check of the AT&T site says maybe not.
https://forums.att.com/t5/Other-Phones-Devices/GSM-network-question-looking-at-purchasing-a-Ulefone-Armor-phone/td-p/5284699
So you maybe better off just returning it.
Armor 6e and AT&T
I also recently purchased a uleFone Armor 6e and have success on the AT&T network. Maybe a replacement SIM is in order ?
Go in the phone's settings, Network and Internet, Mobile network, advanced, access point names. Hit the plus sign at the top and enter these settings:
name - NXTGENPHONE
APN - NXTGENPHONE
Proxy - not set
Port - not set
Username - not set
password - not set
Server - not set
MMSC - mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy - proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port - 80
MCC - 310
MNC - 410
Authentication Type - None
APN type - default,mms,supl,hipri
APN protocol - IPv4
Bearer - Unspecified
Those are the settings available from AT&T. Again, you might want to check on a new SIM card. SIM compatibility may be the issue. A compatible SIM card will display 25, 26, 27, or 28 in the ninth and tenth digits spots.
My Armor 6E just automatically worked when I switched the [AT&T] / Straight Talk SIM out of my old phone when I re-activated my service with a PIN card yesterday. It looked like the settings in the last post, but I only had 3G with the "automatic" APN that just showed up upon activation.
When I put the Straight Talk/[tracfone/AT&T] APN settings in a new APN, I got 4G HD.
These are the settings that got me (Straight Talk) 4G HD:
-----
Name: straight talk
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
You don’t need to setup a username nor password.

These are from here:
https://apn-settings.com/us/straight-talk-apn-settings/
You might try them and see if you get 4G. In my area (mountains of Central Utah), Straight Talk and Tracfone use the AT&T towers. I'm not sure how the legal/contracts end works in other parts of the country.
May try this with my Ulefone Armor 3W

I've been doing research on how to get my Ulefone Armor 3W setup with Straight Talk since I had an issue with my Samsung S9 so I figure it may be a challenge with a phone that's not typically seen on Straight Talk networks (most people have not heard of Ulefone). I don't plan on switching to any phone unless it is android driven os, my wife pulled me from the darkside (i*hone) a few years back and I've never looked back. If there's any other settings you've come across I'd appreciate it though I think I've exhausted all but the dark web of any details on how to setup apn settings on an android device.
My MMS has been broken for a while, and recently I lost 4G with the settings I posted earlier. After a lot of searching I found the following settings that fixed both problems:
Field Setting
APN RESELLER
AUTH_TYPE: None
MMSC http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS_PROXY proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS_PORT 80
MMS_APN_TYPE default,mms,supl
