[Q] O2-UK Internet & MMS APN. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Could someone on O2 post their combined internet and MMS settings please? When I first got the device they were combined in a single APN but with my various flashes I have ended up losing it.
Cheers.

Ignore, got them from elsewhere.

O2 Settings

Hi all,
Just got my S740, which I have to admit is surprisingly good.
My problem getting O2 settings to work.
Is there a .cab?
Tried manual setting but, I am crap at it and always have this initial problem.
Tried the O2 icon in settings, clicked get settings. error 'contact O2 for your settings'.
Anyone please help?
Thanks in anticipation.
SIM card up to date?
Mate is your SIM card up to date? 64k?
Operator services sometime need to interact via STK etc.
Just a thought...
Hi SIM is only 4 weeks old had issues with the settings on my ignito, so O2 sent me a new one.
Any ideas?
so do you miss all settings ?
Or just a bunch...
What do you need ?
APN for internet access, SMS message service number
i.e whats not working for you.....?
Let me know and I will try and find out.
Hi and thanks for your reply.
Everything is working apart from internet and MMS.
Thanks
Then you need your APN details.
Internet access and MMS are both depending on your GPRS settings.
Make sure you get the correct APN adress in your phone.
According to the O2 web, these settings are the correct ones for GPRS.
GPRS access settings
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
Primary DNS: 193.113.200.200
Secondary: DNS 193.113.200.201
Username: username
Password: password
You might want to doublecheck these settings so that they are the correct ones for YOUR tariff - otherwise you might end up paying more than you should.
Regards,
Martin
btw.
You will find the settings were you add the above at:
Start - Settings - Connections - GPRS.
In here you either edit an existing one, or add a new one (via Menu -Add).
Thanks for the info, these settings I have.
I think the problem is that is it trying to connect to work. What should it be?
Thanks again.
not 100% sure
Have a look at:

This might help you
Its tricky for me to verify since I am on a Swedish network.
If you want to connect to the internet set connection to "The Internet".

[Q] Tmo U.S. HD2 MMS problems

I am having a problem with MMS from my TMO HD2 (U.S.). I have a prepaid sim card in it and use only wifi for internet connection.
I can not send or receive MMS of any kind from my phone. I get the the error message that the MMS was unable to be sent/downloaded. On previous phones (specifically tmobile wing), I had no problem sending MMS with a prepaid SIM.
Can anyone answer definitively if the HD2 has to have a data plan to work? I have read that the hd2 needs a data plan for MMS and that it doesn't need it. just looking for the facts. Also, I don't know if settings for MMS have gotten screwed up or not. Can someone post the settings exactly?

ppl having problems downloading mms on custom roms

I was having trouble getting mms to work in miui and others untoll I found the problem. If the rom sets up your apn's for you it creates seperate apn's for internet, mms, tethering etc. For Rogers in Canada to get mms to work I had to delete all apn's except the one that is correct and the "apn type:" field must be cleared as apposed to being "default, internet, mms". A quick Google search should tell you what to put for your apn but as long as you delete the others including the one that says its for mms and clear the apn type field it should work now. Only confirmed on Roger's. Others can report back if its strictly a solution for Roger's. Or not.
Can you send though or only receive??
I only have the one apn (telus) and though it is exactly what it should be, I cannot send mms, only receive.

Manually switch APNs

I've searched to the best of my ability and can't find much help. My problem is that when I'm any custom ROM (tried about 5 including CM7, CM9 and RootBox JB) I must manually switch APNs when I get a MMS message. So for example, if I receive a picture message, I have to go into my APN setting and manually select my MMS APN, then go back to my messaging app and hit download. Then once it downloads, I have to go back into my APN setting and switch back to my internet APN. On the stock ROM this was not the case. I have all the correct settings, I'm absolutely sure. I've tried editing the apns-conf.xml file to add my carriers settings. Tried flashing without the sim card in. Can't seem to get it to work. I'd really appreciate any help you guys can provide.
Combine them
allyourbase said:
Combine them
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I assume you mean combine the two APN settings. I've tried that. All that does is leave me without internet or mms capabilities.
Seriously? what provider do you have? I'm guessing since you're in the USA judging by the american flag in your profile that you're on ATT or straight talk? Telling us what provider you have would help quite a bit..
Edit, I thought help me, help me I'm dying questions belong in the QnA forums?
Sorry, knew I was forgetting something. My carrier is Viaero. I live in the middle of nowhere in Colorado so its basically the only option. AT&T doesn't cover our area. And now this isn't an urgent issue, just something that kind of annoying. All I was looking for were some ideas on how to remedy the situation, so I thought general would be more appropriate.
Post both apns please
I've verified these with Viaero and with another SII running stock. also had an unlocked iPhone before which these worked with. Another side note, on custom roms if I put in the "APN TYPE" I get neither internet nor MMS. So I have to leave those blank to get it to work at all.
NAME
Viaero Connect
APN
internet.vedge.com
APN TYPE
internet

APN

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same issue.
For MMS Part .... change port number "9401" to just blank

Can't save APN on CM 10.2

I am on vacation in Costa Rica and bought a prepaid sim from Kolbi, a local carrier. I can make calls but can't receive texts or access data.
I will need to get MMS working because I need to send a text to the carrier to activate the data feature.
I tried to add the APN for the carrier based on settings that I found online but it never seems to save. After each time I add it the APN list shows as blank.
As a workaround, I was thinking of adding the APN to the APN config file and dirty flashing over the ROM.
I can only use the hotels crappy WiFi so it would be difficult to download another ROM.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Bump. Does anyone have any ideas here? This seems like it might be a long standing CM bug across multiple devices, very frustrating.
