I'm trying to add MMS capability to my N1 on TDC Denmark, but after putting in my APN details and pressing "Save" I am returned to the APN list and it remains blank.
Previously I have had this same issue, but the carrier added it automatically so I didn't worry about it. This carrier does not for some reason.
Anyone know a fix?

Hi,
I don't know if this has already been written on another place in this board but i think this could be an interesting information for all "Nike-Android" people...
After trying a lot of Vogue-Eclair builds on the Nike, i often had a good working system, but couldn't get DATA to work. While playing with Myn's new Eclair, i found out that the reason for a non working DATA Connection are often wrong values for MCC and MNC in the APN Settings. This is especially the case, when you are not from the USA.
I've attached an Android APN List (XML Format) which can be used to find out, which values are correct for your country. (Maybe your provider is already in this list anyway..)
So if you're in germany (like me) set MCC to 262 and MNC to 03 and of course the other entries for your provider.
But there seems to be another problem with this. As soon as you have changed that values, the APN disappears from the APN list. Obviously the APN is still there but it is not shown. So i did the following...
- Enter name, apn, username and password. Then SAVE the APN and activate it.
- Select the APN again and set your values for MCC and MNC and save again.
After that, the APN can't be seen anymore, but it's still there. After a Minute or so, you should see the DATA Icon in your notification bar.
Using this, i also got 'Incubus Super Eclair Lite' running here on my Nike.
In spite of all that, it's curious that everything changes to the language of your coutry after you've got the first connection to your provider, but not the Settings Tab. I'd guess that this has something to do with the DATA Problem.
Anyone who has an idea, why the Settings Tab always stays English ?
Greetz, lagloose
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

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.

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

so I am having APN issues after upgrading from 2.6.3 to 4.1.2 rooted. no data or mms, phone and txt works great. same provider.
galaxy s2 sch-r760 generic cdma, ACS provider here in alaska. apparently goes through gci?
now this is going to be a book, so grab a tasty beverage.
when i add the APN the mnc and mmc are not correct.
when i change them it discards the APN
i have no sim.
this thread did not help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715788
if i dont change those, it seems to communicate with my network as it fills in the mmsc field. but i get no internet.
if i enable then disable airplane mode it shows the 3g emblem, then it disappears.
I have all the correct APN info from my provider.
I have tried every way of changing the APN-conf.xml file but nothng has worked.
my thinking is that i need to change the default mnc and mmc that appear when i go to add the apn, to the correct values and then i will be able to save it.
however i cannot find that field in the systems. if someone know a trick i havent found in the last week of researching, please help.
could my phone be locked? if so how would i go about unlocking? could upgrading my software have changed my cdma settings??
i am fairly new to messing with android but i have some linux experience and am a quick learner.
Also if there is a custom rom or kernal or binary or what ever the operating system is called that might fix this issue and work on my device please let me know.
if someone does help i will pay a reward to them via pay pal, it wont be much but hey its better than nothing.
Hi all, I have a Tmobile LG G5 that was working fine overall - I'm now visiting in Canada using the phone for roaming (data option enabled) and cellular options work fine but I don't receive data. Found out that I am missing the local carrier APNs and cannot add any - as soon as I put in the MCC and MNC and hit save the entries just disappear taking me back to the APN select page. has anyone come across the same issue? Is there a workaround? Thanks!
