[Q] mms problem - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hello need some help if anybody has an idea about my problem.
I bot O1 from UK lock free with froyo 2.2.1 on it. I tried to update it with lg software crap and bricked the phone. Than after some research downloaded KDZ and a room with froyo 2.2.2 which i installed. Unfortunately the room had all T-mobile crap which does dot really affect the work of the phone. All works fine but can not send MMS. Any idea or just wait for gingerbread and update?

Try the setting from https://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/wiki/APNlist .
For me i have to put in "APN type: default,supl" to work with my mobile provider in Singapore.

APN settings
It seems your APN settings are not properly configured.
Maybe you will find your APN settings here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564459
Good luck!

Not working still. More ideas or just wait for the gingerbread update?

MMS
Is your data enabled while you send the MMS?

I have internet which means that data transfer works in 3G. My provider is vodafone AL.
When I try to send mms it changes from 3g to H and than does not send as returns to 3G.
It looks that I will have to wait for gingerbread. I do not want to root.

Hhhmmmnnn
It seems only your MMS setting is not properly configured.
Try installing Tweakker from the Market. Maybe it can help you.
Enjoy your phone while waiting for the GB update

Dunno, any decent operator should be able to send you the proper settings for MMS/Internet via a special SMS. You just open the SMS and are all set.

They tried by sms and i also went into one of their shops they did not understand why , just suggested a downgrade to 2.2.1 which i think with the GB near the corner was useless. Tweeaker did not work either.
However great phone for the price and love the battery life ( 2 straight days but using task killer and android booster)

[Q] Flashed to Metro...now what?

So i got my phone flashed over to metro today but they screwed up and didnt port over my verizon number. I will be going back thursday to have that done since i need to let 48hrs pass. Will that affect doing anything else?
Currently Web works, SMS but not MMS (they say they will fix this), GPS doesnt work (they say it needs to be updated to google maps 4.7, they will fix this as well), phone calls works, email works, and my MMA news app works. No Marketplace access and apps like TiKL, Wordfeud, Engadget do not work.
What is left to get everything working right? It was flashed over but not rooted so its still relatively "stock" 2.1. Ive found this tutorial...
http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...an-HTC-Droid-Eris-to-Metro-PCS-(Tutorial-v2.0)
Ive noticed a few apps on my phone that werent there before:
AnyCut
APN Backup and Restore
On one of my screens, theres a Proxy settings thing that when i open it it says
Hostname: wap.metropcs.net
Port: 3128
Whats next for me to do? I guess where do i start in that tutorial? Also, should i do anything since the phone still needs to go back so they can port my old number onto it?

You probably should not do anything until whoever worked on the phone says they are done. They should be able to get the MMS going fairly easily. In the meantime you should DL the Gmaps update and check that the GPS is functional. There are lots of GPS apps that will check signal and signal strength and you may want to DL one of those also.
To DL from the Google Market you will need to use WIFI, most on Metro have no luck with the Mobile Network downloading.
The apps you mention not working probably will not work on Metro. If the app goes out to a site using a specific port it won't work on Metro since to connect to the web you are using a proxy, so the app thinks it can't connect. If the app has a way to be told to use a proxy then it will work.
You should recheck on whether you are rooted .. you probably will find you are since in order to use iptables and the proxy you need autostart and autostart.sh and those cannot be installed on an unrooted phone I think.
In summary after the MMS is working (keep in mind the Metro size limit on MMS, around 240k!!!!) you should be all set.
Ive logged into the market via wifi to check for updated google maps...it says im up to date. I dunno whats going on. So even with that How To guide posted above, apps like Facebook still wont work? How do i check if im rooted? edit: i downloaded a free terminal emulator and typed "su" (without the quotes) and it said "permission denied." I guess this means im not rooted?
Metro size limit on MMS eh? Ill have to look at that. I tried sending a really long text message that normally would have been broken up into several messages (or sent as one large one via MMS) but it would always fail to send. Not sure whats goin on there, it wasnt even a picture or anything.
edit: I know Metro doesnt have alot of 3g coverage but someone said looking at their coverage map and selecting "dual band" shows their 3g coverage and i am well within a 3g covered area according to that. How do i go about getting that 3g/EVDO access going?

[Q] rooted+unlocked vibrant wont connect to data

I Just rooted my phone using Super One Click rooter and unlocked it using SGS Unlock Pro app from the market. I'm trying to unlock it on Roger's network (i think its the same as AT&T)
Thing is i cannot connect to the internet/data on the phone, it says to check connection settings but i dont know what i need to change. Phone calls and texting works just not data.
Any help would be great, i am pretty new at this stuff and have spent the past 3 days trying to figure this all out
You need to change the proxy setting to those of your network service provide. Just call the customer care and ask them for the detailed info about that, they'll probably send you a sms carrying the settings for you to install based on your device.
If that doesn't work (I had that issue) just manually enter the settings after you ask the agent about them or better yet check them out on the internet. Usually service providers post them on their official sites under GPRS, EDGE or 3G.
Weird i just changed my APN to internet.com and it works

3G data MMS bug in froyo? or is it the problem in CM6? help....

i have a bit of a problem with 3G data and mms. in original stock 2.1 from SE i can disable 3G data, but that will not turn off MMS sending and receiving.
however, in most froyo, including in CM6-final. this is not possible. we have to enable both 3G data to get mms to work. however... i dont have a 3G data plan, and it can be very expensive .............
here are some facts that i have tried out:
1. using SE stock 2.1, it is possible to disable 3G data but still receive send mms
2. using SE stock 2.1, it is possible to have only 1 APN for mms without other types (default, supl), but still receive send mms
3. it is a froyo bug, based on things i found on the internet
4. some brand such samsung motorola, have patched it
5. i tried to set up different APN for mms (mms) and 3G (degault,supl). still can not do mms without 3G data
6. i set up only 1 APN for mms... it doesnt work
7. different APN for mms and 3G data, send an mms to myself, works, and then i delete APN for 3G data. now mms can work with only mms APN. and i dont have 3G data activity at all. but after restart. can not work again
anyone, any idea how to get the mms working without enabling 3G data?
ok. thank you
cheers
more info:
code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=2289
this is exactly what i was trying to explain
btw, i tried to use SMART APN apk. but it doesnt help
i am using x10 mini pro on owain CM-6 final
Anyone ..?
i know it might not be important to some. but here, where i live, i could get charge with something like 2000 USD if i am not being carefull with my data usage....
i really need mms to work, without having to enable data for web. just 3G for mms only...coz i can not text sms to other operator, must use mms. sms is locked inter operator only
perhaps this might help u
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044575
thanx man!
unfortunately, i tried that in my step 6 above
"6. i set up only 1 APN for mms... it doesnt work"
it won`t connect. saying data service unavailable... the only way i can get mms to work is by "fishing" 3G data using 2 APN, and then delete APN for internet, leaving MMS alone. still, after i reboot, i get data service unavailable and have to "fish" again.

i assumed that u followed the instructions word by word rite?
personally, i'm not using 3G connection, i only use 2G and my service operator won't charge any excess fee if i leave my connection on..so i can't really help much
i just happen to saw that thread and i thought that might do some help to u..
Yup
Thanks. I really appreciate it. I can not use 2g here in japan. All network services are in 3g. No more 2g.
Oot a bit, it was quiet amazing for me, as a foreigner, in sendai that during the earthquake, 3g data service are fully operasional at full speed eventhough we hno gas water and all.
Anyway, I finally found the answer.
I installed quick settings from market (they have several app with that name, i use the one by sergej shafarenka). Use it to disable mobile data.get mms, with not 3g internet.
it wasnt my idea too to be honest. Someone post it in an old thread for samsung galaxy. I ran in to it accidentally today. Fiuuuhhhh...now I would not have to worry anymore

x10i gingerbread 2.3 doesnt send sms ... only receive on t-mobile usa :/

i updated my x10i to 2.3 and everything was great and i could send and recieve sms.
after a day of having gingerbread now i cant send any sms but i can receive. every time i send its stuck on "sending". if i reboot my phone it does send it though but on the 1 sms that was in queue for sending.
then i installed wolf's rooted 2.3 and everything was working again but on the second day it started happening again and i cant send sms again, only receive.
im on t-mobile usa..
PLEASE HELP!
I'm on T-Mobile USA and haven't had any issues with SMS since the GB 2.3.3 came out. Well, I'm unsure yet if I can receive full sized mms (always a problem with TMO on non-TMO phones)
It's a silly thing to double check, but have you downloaded the APN settings for Tmobile USA? If you don't, the default 'Telkilla" or whatever it's called is on. I can still get 3G on TMO usa with it...
Go to settings, click on 'Sony Ericsson' (very first one), and then click on "Settings download"
To double check: go to settings, click on "Wireless & network settings", click on "Mobile networks", click on "APNs"
Problem solved.
My sim card got screwed up so I replaced it with a new one.
After leaving my old Sony with this sim card in the washing machine las year I'm surprised it worked till today lol.
Thanks anyway=]

You need to set up your wireless apn go to:
menu/settings/wireless & networks/mobile networks/network mode/gsm/wcdma preferred (click it)
Then Back button/Back button/sony ericsson/settings download then wait a few you will see it (3g/H) flash on (you do not have to click it it's just saying that is your network) then go to:
Back button/wireless & networks/mobile networks/access point name. there should be two apns
one wireless/one mmsc. if for some reason you have three make sure that the top one (the house icon 3g) is checked or you will be roaming
And always remember to backup your Settings and APNs,and anything else you need to keep. There are free apps on the market to do that but the pro/key versions have more settings and help the developers and no adware. Hope this helps if not all be here tomorrow or i'm sure someone else will help too i do have some apns just tell us what network your on an we can help you set them up. Good luck
well i did every thing that you told me and i got an epc.tmobile.com and an wap.voicestream.com but still not sending out texts and i am on the tmobile
Figured it out it was my visual voice box from tmobile turned it off and they started sending again so if anyone else has the same problem as me try that

[Q] Strange MMS issue

Hey guys,
just got an XZU c6833 and put my tmobile sim in it. everthing seems to work fine except mms. I have tried multiple times to go to mobile networks and download the internet & MMS settings but pics still wont send or receive. i also tried go sms to see if it was the stock sony app.
not rooted, no custom roms, no unlocked bootloader
searched these forums and the web to no avail
any ideas?
Hello,
You need to find the good settings, and delete others.
Need only 2 APNs, DATA and MMS. Sometimes only one is OK.
For MMS you need to select it with the dot where you can see APNs names.
It's good to see other Android phone with same provider to exclude problem of settings.
Wich one is it, and where are you from?
I'm tired, not English, sorry if not easy to understand mate.
Sorry for the late response.
I finally got it figured out. You were right about the apn. I switched to the fast.tmobile apn and it worked flawlessly.
On a second note, has anyone noticed a speed difference on lte between fast.tmobile and epc.tmobile? It seems epc is quite a bit faster. But my mms only works on fast.
Sent a long time ago from a galaxy far, far away...
For my personnal information what is the ip or url for this both APNs? (fast & epc)
Speed and/or ping is routing depending for each APN adress gate and adress to connect.
My english suck? YES! put the pedal2themetal!!! :laugh:
Can you post your settings you use? And where do you go in settings? I got my ZU today and I have this issue.
I tried looking for the settings to change, but only found the download mms settings.
Thanks
