APN help / advice please! - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
i'm on vodafone contract (500mb download limit per month)
I've installed one of the darkstone (non-sense) builds and its running well.
only problem is with the internet.
i can connect using the WAP contract APN, but not with the contract internet APN, both from vodafone.
am I ok using the WAP APN, or is it going to cost me more money??? really confused what the difference is.
really hope someone can help.
thanks

From what i know there are different apn types like internet and mms and just internet.
Vodafone in my country uses internet and mms apn and the APN settings are available on their site.
Assuming that you installed a custom rom it just doesnt't have your apn settings just google them good luck ;-)

how to set up the mobile network?

i just unlocked my htc hero(T mobile G2) and already got my O2 sim card unlimited internet bolt. however, i cant access to the internet using my O2 sim card. for this reason, i cant set up any of my e mail account either. i believe that the O2 sim can be used in htc hero, the problem is how to set up the mobile internet setting. use auto or manual setting?
btw: how to get the PDF handset instructions in the sim card?
help~~got the phone but cant use
Whole lot is at>>>> http://www.modmyi.com/wiki/index.php/Carrier_APN_Settings
thank you very much indeed. still found that slow in browsing, download and upload. anyways can speed it up?
here are part of the setting from the link:
O2 GPRS settings (Email/Web): Homepage: http://pda.o2.co.uk/
APN address: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: mobileweb
Password: password
Session type: Continuous / permanent
Authentication: Normal
Security: Off
HTTP Proxy: 193.113.200.195
Port number: 8080
Email servers (POP): mail.o2.co.uk
Email servers (SMTP): smtp.o2.co.uk
DNS Servers: 193.113.200.200 and 193.113.200.2
O2 "Simplicity" EDGE Settings (may also work for other non-iPhone O2 contracts, but will *not* work with Pay and Go):
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: faster
Password: web
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1, where can i set the
"Session type: Continuous / permanent
Authentication: Normal
Security: Off " and the email servers, EDGE Settings?
2, what's the MMS port after entering the MMS Proxy: 193.113.200.195:8080, is it 8080?
3, is the "O2 UK Monthly Iphone Contract Cellular data" setting also available to the O2 simplicity?
4, where can i set the "EDGE Settings"?
5, what's the APN type i should input?
BTW, anybody use O2 sim in htc hero (t mobile g2) the same as me?
many thanks for so many stupid questions.

MMS proxy
Hi, thanks, can you double check the MMS proxy as that is not a valid IP address.

Try the GPRS settings without the proxy. Speeds things up significantly.
Just want to add in one more...
Starhub Internet
==========
Name: Starhub Internet
APN: shwap
User: star
Pass: hub
APN Type: default
Remove the proxy.
It will seem faster as compared to Starhub GRPS.
Found the following settings from an official statement from Google:
For Starhub customers:

Works fine for my ADAM

[Q] Internet Sharing

Has anyone been able to get "Internet Sharing" working with an unlocked Lumia 920 on any network other than Rogers?
After putting in my Telus SIM I was only getting 3G and it wasn't really holding a signal at all. Changed APN settings to
Internet APN:
APN: isp.telus.com
Proxy server: 74.49.0.18
Proxy Port: 80
IP: IPv4v6
MMS APN:
APN: sp.telus.com
WAP gateway: 74.49.0.18
WAP port: 80
MMSC: hhtp://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc
MMSC port: 80
Then forced an OTA update by installing another keyboard. After that all seemed to work as expected.
Although sometimes it reports 4G instead of LTE and Nokia Maps reports no network when searching for new maps sometimes.
Battery hasn't been that good but I've only had it for 2 days and those issues seem to clear up.

Maybe you guys can help me? My HTC One is only getting EDGE.
My HTC One that is being used with MetroPCS' BYOD plan is only getting EDGE, and not 3g, 4g, or even LTE. The phone was being used with Verizon Wireless before I got it. Everything works fine, but my data speed is super slow (EDGE 0.01 download and 0.01 upload). When I check the APN settings, it still says Verizon Wireless Internet. The people at my local MetroPCS store were no help since they don't know anything about APN settings. Thanks.

Telus MMS / Picture Messaging Not Working (SOLVED)

I wanted to post this information in case anyone else runs into the same issue. I have a SM-G900T that was from T-Mobile which was unlocked and has been running on the Telus network. Currently running Android OS 6.0.1 (Marshmellow) using the Area 51 ROM huge thanks to malbert16442 for his work!
The issue is: voice, data and text messaging was working just fine, however I could not receive or send MMS messages. I found that the problem was both the APN list within the ROM as well as Telus's own APN settings did not work.
The solution was to clear the "APN Type" field!
Here's the APN settings I am currently using:
Name: TELUS (name is irrelevant)
APN: sp.telus.com
Proxy server: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: (won't let me post the MMSC value, but its the generic Telus HTTP URL)
Proxy server: 74.49.0.18
Port: 80
MCC:302
MNC: 220
Authentication type: None
APN type: Not set
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Mobile virtual network operator type: GID
Mobile virtual network operator value: 5455
Will this work/apply to the Cricket Wireless Network? i have the same exact problem, only I AM able to receive MMS, but not send it.
