Can someone please post the file telephony.db please. I followed the instruction of the thread "MMS not working for S8 ROM" and now i have no data (internet) except using wifi.
If you use S8 Rom please send me telephony.db in
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
Thank you
i think you should be able to extract it from the rom yourself.

Like i said i followed the instruction and deleted it in my own ROM. That's why i would need your help to extract it from your rom and send it to me
ok, no need to get sarcastic. I was just wondering if the file was in the original download able ZIP.
Go to settings, wireless, mobile networks, APN settings, reset to default.
The reason to delete that file is because you cannot edit the stock settings, but you can remove them all.
I also noticed that the instructions did not mention you need to recreate the APNs after deleting the file.
On a side note my MMS eventually stopped working again. I think I will give h8rift's a shot or go back to UnNamed.

Subject is supposed to day can't receive text messages sorry.
I recently went back to the March2011OTA for the eris and didn't like it. I then re-rooted and flashed the latest version of GSB 2.7. Now I can send text messages but can't receive them. I can't figure out what I did wrong. Tried updating my roaming but that didn't seem to help. Any suggestions?
1. Download "APN OnOff" from the market and install it.
2. Run it and and choose "Show APN list" in the middle of the screen.
3. Press the Menu soft key and choose "Reset to default" on the right.
4. You can try it again now, if this doesn't work, reboot and try again.
If that doesn't work:
A. Download and install "APN Backup and Restore" from the market.
B. Download the zip file I have attached.
C. Unzip it and copy or move the "ApnBackupRestore" folder it creates (and the folder's contents) in the root of the SD card.
D. Run APN Backup and Restore and choose "Delete APNs". Then choose "Restore APNs" and restore them from the xml file I gave you, which should automatically be listed when you choose that.
Once again, you can try before and after a reboot. Hopefully one of these methods works for you.
FYI the APN backup I attached is from a version of xtrSENSE that was based off the July OTA (probably xtrSENSE v4.5 through 4.6.5). Fresh from a boot, without having done anything else first.
Thank you so much
tried method one and it didn't work trying number 2 now but
apparently there is no ApnBackupRestore folder
so I created on and APN Backup and Restore still can't find it. Ugh!
I will keep trying and keep you posted.
Thanks again

Did you create the folder with the same capitalization as I posted? Another way to create the appropriately named folder is to make a backup of your current APNs from APN Backup and Restore, then place the APN file you downloaded in that folder. Make sure and delete any APN folder you created before to avoid confusion in the future.
I suppose I should re-create the zip to include the folder so that when it's unzipped, it'll create the folder, too.
Hope that works for you.
Edit: I changed it with the folder name for the future. The archive above has the new zip file with the APN backup file in the appropriate folder.
Ok got the folder and was able to restore the APN. Still can't receive texts. This is frustrating.

Did you try rebooting?
I feel like a real pest. Thank you again for helping me.
I did reboot and still no good. When I go into APNONOFF it just says "off" and when I click show APNs there is nothing there.

If you were a pest I wouldn't try to help you. You're welcome.
Did you still try to do the following step?
Press the Menu soft key and choose "Reset to default" on the right.

You can still do that even if it doesn't list an APN. I've seen that before and it helped me, but I never had the texting problem, I used these as a solution for tethering problems, but some people have had success fixing their texting problems with at least the second method, and maybe some the first, also.
Recently I had issues were my APNs were cleared out after flashing a ROM. So I thought I would re flash a stock sbf and backup my APN list with APN Manager and share them. This came from a US AT&T Atrix running the latest OTA sbf.
NOTE: I take no responsibility for any damage this may cause. This is a fresh backup from a fresh flash of this sbf http://goo.gl/hfkXH so everything should work fine.
Instructions:
Install APN Manager from the market
http://goo.gl/v8JWn
Unzip the attachment to your INTERNAL SD Card keeping it in a folder named "APNManager" ie: "internal sd card root/APNManager/ApnBackup.xml"
Use APN Manager to restore APN list

trying now looks promising just tried it, worked like a charm thx for concluding my 2 hour search for MMS restoration
This really should be stickied, as I just spent the last hour trying to find a list of default APN's. Thanks.

This saved my butt.
AT&T HSPA+
It is automatic, easy, and reliable. Thank you for making my problem disappear!
Edit: perhaps missing AT&T HSPA+:
Found this @ http://forum.androidcentral.com/970730-post1.html
"FIX:
Under you Access Point Settings create a new APN.
Menu Key, New APN.
Name : AT&T HSPA+
Important step: tap APN and enter exactly : phone
That's it! It's literally just "phone", not kidding. Leave everything else blank including Username and Password!
Scroll down to APN Type, Select Internet only
Hit the Menu Key, and hit SAVE
Your will return to APN settings, go to the APN you just created called AT&T HSPA+, tap the dot next to the APN and make sure it turns green! "
thank you! this is exactly what i want.. i had to go back and wipe my phone and it erased my apn. you guys rock!!
Thanks! Works great! (ATT)
Saved me. THANKS!!!

I clicked "Reset to Default" on the Apn menu and then they all disappered and i cannot connect. There used to be like 5 different apns. Is there a way to retrieve them back, i am no longer able to connect to the data.
Hi, are you using Market Enabler or other app that change operator code? Try disabling it, restart the phone and then try to reset.

If you can get wifi, go to the market and download apn backup and restore. It comes with a whole bunch of apn's and should be able to restore the ones you're missing. If you have an sd card, you have to copy the apnbackuprestore folder to the internal phone memory, or else it wont see the backup..

Strange, when i installed apn back up and restore it came with an .xml file that had 900+ apns.. I can try to post it, but just take a look in your apnbackuprestore folder, if you have an sd card, copy that folder to the internal phone memory..
Unzip the file first, then place in your apnbackuprestore folder.
you would have your apn's back by now if you have typed them in. how lazy can you be? Also, most pseudo roms and scripts install them.

No need to flame this post... Apns can be kind of tricky, especially if you make one little error.. Then nothing works. I don't blame him for wanting a simpler way of restoring the apn, after typing in the information by hand 20+ times, I found a much easier way of doing it.
Ok i got connect again, thanks to you guys. I am currently connected "AT&T US HSDPA", is it any different then just the "AT&T" apn? Also I used to get a H+ logo, but now i only get H (I am on gingerblur), it because of the settings or just do not have 4g right now?

You can't remove them as far as I know without at least being rooted. I haven't done that yet on mine, but you can always make a note of the current apn settings, then make a new one that you can modify however you like. I did that so i wasn't going through AT&T's proxy.
You have to be rooted to delete them.
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
Delete the telephony.db file in the above location using a root explorer. This will clear your 2 APNs.
Then you can either manually create the APNs, or "reset to default" to rebuild the standard ones.

i did this and I got an error when trying to access the APN settings. Rebooted and the original APNs reappeared.
I was following Max_Pain's guide to get 3g and mms working on my evo 3d for metro pcs. I downloaded the epst.apk he posted and put it in the system/app folder, but when I reboot and put in the ##data# to edit some stuff it didnt do anything. Is there a way to fix this? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
That only works on GB and below, is that what you're on?

No i'm on ics. I just downloaded the android revolution rom i'm on and got the epst.apk from the system/app folder there. thnx for the reply though.
I also wanted to know, I want to flash another rom, but that changes the APN setting right? (Thats what my friend tells me) So is there a way to back up the apns on ics that isn't using apn backup & restore?

You could always manually copy the original apn file and place it on your sdcard. I know its a bummer, ics wont allow third party apps to write to it. Then you could just copy that backup onto the new rom you flash in the folder it is located in. I am not quite sure where this file is located.

so the apn's are just all in one file? I mean i can make a backup of the apn's wit the app. Saves it as an xml. But idk how I would restore it from that if ics won't let 3rd party apps write....
