3 APN Settings Change for faster internet? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have seen a thread in the development section saying about changing the APN settings and they are getting much faster speeds
I am wondering if there are any optimized APNs for the 3 network? And whether this is even possible?
Thanks
James

What APN settings do you have. I am on three and it took me ages to find the settings but mine seem to work ok.
It would be nice to find a faster apn if there is such a thing

name: 3 WAP
APN three.co.uk
username: user
MCC:234
MNC: 20
authentication type: PAP
APN type: internet
Everything else is not set, even the password! :s
What about yours mate?

Hi, mine is a little different:-
Name - 3UK
apn - three.co.uk
proxy - not set
port - not set
username - not set
password- not set
server - not set
mmsc - http://mms.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
mms proxy- mms.three.co.uk
mms port - 8799
mcc - 234
mnc - 20
authentication type - not set
apn type - internet + mms
Hope this helps

I have exactly the same settings as you guys. Not sure if there is faster APN on three..
I am quite happy with my inet speed on Three. I normally get 4mbit down and 1.5 mbit up. Even in low signal areas it is still good

I get similar speeds, I do not have a tv but I am able to watch on my laptop via wifi tethering with minimal buffering.

Any of you guys get HSPA+ on 3 (the H+ icon)?

No, justs H for me.

im on Orange Uk and only have got H anyone on orange get H+???

AT&T APN trick for faster speeds

First off am currently on CM9 and flashed UCLC5-Modem here- http://www.mediafire.com/?7vwp5pdsqd1v9ep
Flash it.. Then reboot...BUT I DO BELIEVE IT DOSENT MATTER WHAT MODEM YOUR CURRENTLY USING..
REMEMBER IF YOUR LTE APN DOESN'T STICK, TO DELETE YOUR OLD APN FIRST, THEN MAKE THIS ATT LTE APN THEN, SAVE IT.ENABLE IT....then make other apn if needed be...for the ones having difficulty.
GO TO MOBILE NETWORK>ACCESS POINT NAMES>ATT LTE
MAKE SURE THE SETTINGS ARE EXACTLY LIKE THIS:
AT&T APN Settings
Enter exactly as shown
Name: ATT LTE
APN: pta
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: none
APN type:default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri,internet
APN protocol :IPv4/IPv6 (this setting experimental and is optional)
(make sure NO spaces after commas)
BEARER: LTE (default is unspecified) play with this one..
CLICK MENU button and SAVE settings!!!!
STILL NEED STOCK APN-- in APN TYPE:MMS --this helps to insure you get mms better.

GODDAYUM! Thats fckn AWESOME! Good stuff ma man
I almost pooped my pants when i seen that.lol I've been playing with this all night. And I have to share the wealth with the community!
UCLC5 was the very first ICS leak for our Notes. If coming from stock, you can just use the following ROM link:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/22134-sgh-i717uclc5-ice-cream-sandwich/
Wonder what the speed differences are between UCLC5, UCLD3 and UCLE2. Be interesting to see someone with the time handy give it a go and compile the results into a multi-colored graph...
Confirmed!
Confirmed working on ATT stock non-rooted phone.
My DL speed at my current location was around 2-3mbps(sucks) now it just went to steady 12mbps and reaching as high as 20mbps after changing the APN settings.
Thanks!

I never have gotten lte before in my house until I flashed that modem.
My wife has a Samsung galaxy s2 from at&t as well...Her phone is not rooted....I tested her device next to mine. With that modem and settings i scored those values....Hers still gets 3-5 mpbs I tested these devices right next to each other. I believe its the combination of the modem and those settings,and or the cm9 rom?

That's weird I'm currently using cm9 and I didn't have those settings in apn type.. I only had default,mms,
I'll flash another modem without those settings and show you what I was getting before ..before and after pics....If anyone else could do the same that would help.

I tried probably every modem...with countless settings to get the best performance..this seems to work the best as of now.. I will keep trying though!
My "apn type" setting is not editable. It only has three selectable options. I guess you can't do this on UCLE2.

[Q] APN Type Field Options

Since the beginning of time...there have been many APN configurations that work. But some claim that the addition of certain entries into the "APN Type" field are a necessity, or that they improve performance.
After searching, and viewing the support documentation for the AT&T Galaxy Note, I can find no definitive answers...nor does it seem that these additional entries improve performance....so-- if these entries don't improve peformance, are they dead weight? What do they do? If anyone can point to any external resources, or for that matter, they can explain what the different flags mean, it'd be extremely enlightening.
Lets start with the default settings:
Name: ATT PTA
APN: pta
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Auth: none
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri
and finish with one that was recently suggested:
Name: ATT pta
APN: pta
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: none
APN type:default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri,internet
What can difference can we expect? What functions do the different flags provide?
I was actually just wondering this myself this afternoon and saw your thread. It seems that the additions to the apn type showed up with the newer ICS leaks. After browsing multiple threads, most people seem to experience faster data speeds and more stable data with these additional apn types.
I found out what hipri and supl are on some random aussie site:
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1663451
...
3. High Priority Mobile data {TYPE_MOBILE_HIPRI}
A High Priority Mobile data connection. This connection is typically the same as {TYPE_MOBILE} but the routing setup is different. Only requesting processes will have access to the Mobile DNS servers and only IP’s explicitly requested via {@link #requestRouteToHost} will route over this interface if a default route exists.
Something you don’t need to think about
4. WIFI data connection. (TYPE_WIFI)
When active, all data traffic will use this connection by default.
Used to connect to your home wireless router.
Below are the APN TYPES that you set in the APN config on your phone.
1. Default (TYPE_MOBILE)
The Default Mobile data connection. When active, all data traffic will use this connection by default. Should not coexist with other default connections.
2. mms (TYPE_MOBILE_MMS)
An MMS-specific Mobile data connection. This connection may be the same as {TYPE_MOBILE} but it may be different dependant on the network. This is used by applications needing to talk to the carrier’s Multimedia Messaging Service servers.
3. supl (TYPE_MOBILE_SUPL);
A Secure User Plane Location specific Mobile data connection. This connection may be the same as {TYPE_MOBILE} but it may be different. This is used by applications needing to talk to the carrier’s Secure User Plane Location servers for help locating the device
How does the config on the phone get chosen?
When an application wishes to talk to the “network” it sets the APN type when it requests ConnectivityManager. ConnectivityManager then checks if you have an “APN type” set that matches. So for instance if the “APN type” it checks is MMS it will scan you configuration setting for a match and use say testra.mms APN. It will then use this configuration for the network connection. What you use for the APN name does not matter.
So now the connected to the network with say telstra.mms which is the APN that you configured.

And the more I think about this, my feeling is that if people start running high priority stuff, AT&T will land on like a ton of bricks

Those settings for ATT are very different from the "classic" wap.cingular
Did you notice any particular benefit to use those?
Does it work with the "old" one?

Hipri is a device flag. This tells the device to use this APN profile over others. That's why some APN profiles don't stick.

As a newcomer to Android I am attempting to investigate certain of the APN Type settings on searching the Internet have
yet to find a definitive answer but gave tested some settings on a Motoluxe on O2 and have determined that I had to set it to
'default,dun' to successfully use Tethering both USB and WIFI prior to setting this it did not function. Any ideas?
Perhaps I can revive this thread.
I see many recommendations for APN settings where the APN type is empty. What does that mean?
What does Android do when it looks for APN settings, but only finds one without any APN type? Does it use that? For what?
So is an empty APN type the same as default or default,supl,mms?

APN Type is a field where you can tell your device to treat the profile differently than the other profiles....for instance, if you have the "default" flag in it, if you manually choose to use another APN setting and there are connection issues, or it fails, your phone will fall back to the one marked "default". A "hipri" flag might mark a profile as "high priority"--the profile of choice when choosing between multiple APN profiles.
I don't remember what flags mean what, but they're easy to find. If I remember correctly, none of them affect performance...they're there simply to priority, and alter the treatment of these connection methods by your device.

Why did you write that? It does not answer my question.
Can someone tell me how to add an APN to the official list? I'm working for a MVNO and we would like to have our APN embedded into Android so that next time our users Powerup a device they can get the APN settings automatically.
Does anyone know what is the procedure to submit to Android a new APN for data connectivity?

Here is an interesting development... I flashed CyanogenMod 10 on my Sony Xperia arc S phone and the ROM downloaded some settings by itself. There are 3 APNs that comes with this ROM.
1. ATT
2. ATT LTE
3. StraightTalk ATT
StraightTalk was picked by default. I was about to delete them all and enter the settings from here but then I received a text message from a friend... Lo and behold, it was a MMS message with a pic attached and already downloaded. I saw that my WiFi was on, so I turned off the WiFi and asked my friend to send me more pics... They all arrived including a video snippet.... Then I sent one, a larger pic, and he received it. All amazed I fired up the CM10's browser and went to www.testmy.net Did a smarttest and my download was 3.4 Mbps and upload was 577 Kbps... In Phoenix, AZ...

That's the settings I use for straight talk, works great. I get 4g just about everywhere here in pa. Mms works great too. I've had straight talk for a year and a half on at&t. Can't complain. If you use alot of cell data they will throttle you slow, but I'm usually close to wifi. I've heard 2GB then they slow you down.

I'm getting 1.3Mbps down and 657 Kbps up. Pretty happy with it.
To the last poster, I thought Straight Talk didn't offer LTE coverage?! If it did, it'd be an even more amazing deal than I had thought it was!
My data works fine. Got like 6mbps this morn but my MMS wont send for ****. Using an Xperia Ion
Pantech Pocket ATT - Straight Talk MMS Settings
The Pantech Pocket needs to have the Straight Talk APN data loaded to TWO locations.
Both Phone APN and Wap APN need to be setup with the Straight Talk APN settings.
Straight Talk makes it sound like you only need to enter the information in one location.
You need to enter the information in Phone APN and Wap APN, if you want MMS to work!
APN name: Straight Talk
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: Straight Talk value
Port: 80
MMSC: Straight Talk value
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
My Pantech Pocket is running flawlessly on Straight Talk now. MMS is 100% functional. The pictures are getting through. I'm getting 5Mbps download speed and 1Mbps upload speed.
My Pantech burst uses only one apn. On gingerbread and ice cream sandwich. I don't run proxy but the rest of the settings I put in and works good. Seems faster tried it. 40kbps proxy vs 4000kbps no proxy. Not sure why. Any ideas?

Nice
Thanks for the settings you posted Bushmaster.
The settings provided are the first ones I have used and successfully got both data and mms working with only one APN.
Using Samsung Galaxy S III.
1. My phone is unocked and compatible on both AT&T networks and T-Mobile right now i am using an blue AT&T sim and i am thinking to make the move to T-Mobile network. Do you think i can use the same AT&T compatible sim and just change the APN setting to T-Mobile and have it work on the T-Mobile network or so i have to buy a sim?
2. I heard that you can get a free sim by buying a free phone and just using it on your phone but other people say that those sims are lock to those phones. Which is true?
3. I see that Straight talk sells cheap GSM phones and my GF has her phone on T-Mobile so can i buy one of the ST phones and swap it to use on T-Mobile or are the locked and can they be unlocked?
I just switched from the default straight talk apn to the ones bushmaster posted. I went from 1 mbps to 4.8 on a Nexus 4.

Hey gang, I've looked far-and-wide and haven't been able to locate a solution so, I throw myself on y'all's mercy and ask if anyone has a clue why I can't receive wireless data on my SGT AT&T GT-P1000.
I received my AT&T Straight Talk SIM the other day and porting the phone over was no issue. However, when I set up the APN I did not immediately reboot the phone due to some confusion about when the service actually transferred. Could this have affected my registration on the ST wireless network?
I've entered the APN settings precisely but, alas, still cannot connect to the wireless data. I really want to move over to ST, not only will it save me $30 a month whilst adding an "unlimited" data plan but, best of all, I'll get to tell AT&T to go pound sand.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
did you add in the " http://"?
Does anybody now any way to unthrotte. Since we all now that ST throttle after 5gb. I called to ST customers service, they told me that unlimited data is only for navigation.

H = HSPA+ = T-mobile's current 4g
g < 2g < 3g < H < LTE
* Cellular Settings --> highest connection speed to 3G (was set to LTE). Without this, SMS and MMS have a variety of oddities such as limiting to 70 characters, not operating reliably, etc.
* Set Internet APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com (all other fields blank)
* Set MMS APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com
MMSC URL --> http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMSC port --> 80
Max MMS size --> 1024
all other fields blank
I already am using the settings you mentioned and I get a 4G icon on top.
But the internet is really slow. Download speed is less than .1 Mbps.
I am not sure whats going on even with a 4G icon.
any suggestions?
Thanks,

I found out the problem.
Internet seems to be down slow in my area due to some tmobile maintenance.
I just drove away from where I live and did a speed test at bandwidthplace.com
I got nearly 30mbps with Lte and almost 10 Mbps with 3G.
Is there a way to get text messaging working with Lte?

You know that T-Mobile USA does not currently have LTE right?
yes, I know that but I get higher speeds if the connection is set to LTE.

Try using fast.t-mobile.com as your APN and use the access point app
ok

Ok, here is my problem now:
after 1308 update, Internet sharing worked great on my Rogers unlocked 920 running T-mob
But, MMS stoped working. At that point i reactivated T-mobile access point , and MMS started working again .... but, i have no internet sharing again ((
It's always taking me to T-mob web site and pay for service, which i already have
Now .....
i did try "Spanish keyboard trick" and after that, tethering (internet sharing) worked.
But, no MMS again. It looks like settings used in "Spanish mode" use different values for Access point settings.
If i could manually add access point with MMS settings and internet settings, that would be great.
Ill try call T-mob and ask for it, but it's small chance, ill get it ;(
Anybody can help in here ?

ok, two things you have to know:
1, you will have to change your speed connection to 3G (sometimes dont work with LTE)
2, Delete all access points, restart your phone.
then, manually set this:
* Set Internet APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com (all other fields blank)
* Set MMS APN
APN --> epc.tmobile.com
MMSC URL --> http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

T mobile USA - Connecting Problem

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.
