Has anyone got mms to work for the htc dna on att?
Searched, but no luck.
Thanks
I got it to work with gosms.
Used these setting in GoSMS and then it worked in GoSMS and regular system MMS.

are you using these in "User Profile Url manually" or "APN configuration manually? "
I used it in the apn. I sold it because I didnt want to use gosms, I want to get another one, but has anybody got mms to work without gosms?
I love the phone, but hate not having no mms.
Thanks

yeh i rather have the stock client too. so far no luck using any settings. but the phone is too awesome to give up. after seeing the HTC ONE has the same screen but the DNA is bigger, I had to get the DNA.

I ordered a DNA knowing about this issue and, while I'd rather use stock MMS, I'm willing to use Go or Whatsapp as a workaround. I want a phone with Sense and the One X+ overheats, has bad battery under load, and the 1GB of RAM makes for a horrible multitasking experience.
In my opinion, the DNA is the best HTC option until the One is finally released.

so thats why the multitasking is so much better on the DNA. that info about the OneX*. bc I was thinking about going to + from the OneX and so glad i went to the DNA.

I used to blame HTC for the multitasking fail on the One X. I thought it was something they did with Sense. Then I got my hands on a RAZR HD, which also has one gig of RAM, and it behaves the same way. I have also noticed similar behavior on the international GS 3. After you open a few apps and check available RAM, you can see exactly what's going on. Phones with 2GB don't have this issue and no slow down.
I played with the One X+ for 30 minutes and it got almost too hot to hold. I have also seen reviews showing that it drains much more quickly on idle. The Tegra 3 just isn't a good processor, especially next to the S4.

Sorry, had to get to 10 posts, as the links in the APN settings were giving warnings due to my lack of enough posts.
As for how I got the phone, I work in Finance for AT&T and my office is at a retail store. They got the phone a couple days ago, and I've been playing with it since.

thanks for this. which one is selected by default? my international version has the "ATT PHONE" APN selected, but I have the option to select the "ATT WAP" if I want. My data speeds are dismal (more dismal than normal ATT) so just wondering if it is my APN
Mine is sat on ATT PHONE by default and I am getting 5down 1up in a "non HSPA+" area (that was HSPA though...they are turning it on and off while testing it.)

thanks for the info. I normally get anywhere between 1.5-2 Mbps down, 1.5Mbps up, but lately it's been around 300 kbps down... quite frustrating. I wasn't sure if it was the ROM I was running (thus an APN issue) or ATT network here in Denver. I'm leaning towards the latter.
edit: oh, and Denver is supposedly a HSPA+ city according to the ATT network map... my speeds shouldn't have gone down when they "increased that backhaul"

I just checked your area and there are a couple of towers having issues right now in Denver, but a simple reboot should through you to a different tower.
The APN settings for AT&T SGS2 will not work on an international SGS2 unless you're on an official 4G plan. If you're on a grandfathered unlimited 3G plan or the data for non-Smart Phones plan you'll lose data connectivity. Also, you can't return to the Cingular 410 default because the network now recognizes the international SGS2 as a 4G phone. If the default's changed, you'll have to build a new APN with the old Cingular 410 settings. If you need them, they're in a thread in the SGS2 forum.

You can call and change from the grandfather 3g unlmited to the 4G plan and not lose the unlimited. You MUST be on the 4g plan to see 4g speeds out of the phone.

That's not true. I'm on the data for non-Smart Phones plan and pull 8MB down when I'm traveling in a fake-4G area. I get about 3GB down in non-upgraded markets. That's using the Cingular WAP APN settings.

I was talking about the data speeds, not migrating a 3G plan to a 4G plan. There's a lot of discussion regarding that on the international SGS2 forum. The data for non-Smartphones plan is the only one that's still available. On that plan, I'm getting fake-4G speeds (where available).
SO I have an international SGSII and I now live in US. I can't get 3G or H+ with T-mobile. The only company I know of that would offer me that speed is at&t But they are sooo expensive!
Are here any alternatives to get the highspeed?
I found a company that's on same network as at&t but they aren't that much cheaper. Thanks for help!

I don't think there are any other carriers in the US that use the necessary frequencies for mobile high-speed other than AT&T and H2O, no.

Yup, this works; I've got this exact setup, and my bill is around $65 a month. That's for 450 anytime minutes (with rollover), 5000 night/weekend minutes (with rollover), unlimited mobile to any mobile minutes, unlimited text, and unlimited "non-smartphone" data.
From what I hear, you could even go on the GoPhone unlimited everything plan for $50 a month, and it works.
The ISGS2 doesn't support T-Mobile US' bands so you'll get 500K down using GRPS. GoPhone plan's double that to about 950K. If you want fake-4G, you'll have to go with a real AT&T plan. What you can do is sign up for a cheap minutes plan and add unlimited messaging with mobile-to-any-mobile calling ($20) and add the unlimited data for non-smartphones plan for $10. It's not too bad a price that way.

So what you guys mean is that if I get an at&t plan (whichever one) and puch in these apn settings I will get unlimited HSPA? Even if I get a prepaid plan? Do I have to get a data plan included or what?
This is exciting!
I'm not sure about the pre-paid plans but it definitely works for me on my family plan. You'll just have to try it out and report back!
By the way, I wouldn't tell at&t that you have a gs2, just tell them its an old unlocked flip phone you got off of eBay. You can even give them a fake imei #.

Wha?
Yes, you'll have to get SOME kind of data plan. I think any data plan will do. I am using this very phone on the "unlimited data for non-smartphones" data plan just fine, and get pretty decent HSPA+ speeds - usually between 1.5 and 6 mbps down.
Think for a second, dude. If you don't get a data plan at all, when your phone tries to connect to the gateway, it will not get a connection.

But I'll try this and report back as soon as I touch US soil again .
If you have an old at&t phone you can use that imei to give at&t or change a few #'s on your i9100 imei. At&t won't recognize the imei from your i9100 even if you do give them that #. I always give them a fake # just in case.
Yes, get whatever plan for calling you want, but tell them you want the unlimited data for non smart phones.

If you already have an AT&T SIM card that is at least 3g capable, you don't HAVE to tell them squat. I haven't told AT&T about any of my last 3 phones - an XT701, a Motorola Milestone, or this one. I just plugged my SIM card in, and away I went.

In my case I was using a HTC inspire 4g before my i9100 so I had to tell at&t that I was downgrading to a non smartphone so I wouldn't have to pay the $25 for 2 gigs.

In this case, you sacrificed potentially higher speeds in the future (when LTE comes online in your market, if it hasn't already), for a cheaper unlimited plan.
Not saying I wouldn't have done the same (I totally would have - I've decided an average of 3mbps down on HSPA+ is PLENTY fast enough for my phone... it's a phone for crying out loud! So I'm staying on my non-smartphone plan), just pointing it out.
Where I live they have to pipe sunlight in, I won't have LTE for a long time. Where I work I get around 3 mbps down so that's plenty for me as well.

So, Im back in LA. The first thing I did was to go to AT&T store and buy myself a prepaid plan. $50, includes unlimited, talk, text and data for non-smartphones. Then I punched in the APN settings and now I have H+!
I did a speed test and the results were pretty decent:
PING: 156
DOWNLOAD: 3683kbps
UPLOAD: 733kbps
It's good enough, even though in Sweden we have sooo much better and faster... I did the speed test in Sweden and the numbers were doubled for D/U.
But I have another question. My roommate has an iPhone, and we tried to punch in the same APN (which by the way is soooo annoying and complicated....). But they never worked for him. Does anyone, for some reason, know if they work on iPhone 4s? And if yes how do I do it the "easy way"

No offense, but you'd be better off asking iPhone questions in an iPhone forum. There is not a very high percentage of i9100 users who also use iPhones... Not to say that there aren't any at all. I know they exist. Just saying.
Apn for iphone is different.

I want you guys to know that ever since i installed an ICS Rom my internet never drops. I always have at least 3G.
Maybe the APN setting doesn't work that well with gingerbread or something was wrong on my phone. But now it works just fine!
Thanks again!
So based off of reading this thread..
I have T-Mobile prepaid right now.
I will be receiving an i9100 sometime this week, and don't want to live with EDGE.
Can I sign up for a plan online, get unlimited data for non smartphones, get a cheapo free non smartphone, then just pop the sim into the i9100?
Or can I just get a GoPhone plan and pop the sim into the i9100?

I think either will work.
EDIT: FYI, I've got the unlimited data for non smartphones from back when I had a sony ericsson w810, and have gone through three other smartphones before this one just by popping my SIM card into the new phone. Just make sure the SIM card is at least 3g capable. They should all be at this point, but you never know if they're still giving out old SIM cards or not.

Just wondering, what is the typical data H+ speed for AT&T? I just downloaded speedtest.net and my test result don't look promising. This is a unroot and still stock.
190kps for download, 434kbps for upload and 151ms for ping.
I usually get about 5mbps down and 1.5mbps up in Louisville KY on H+
Sent from my AT&T cellular device.
those speeds are extremely slow but speeds will vary depending on your area. You can't judge your phone based on someone else's speeds, unless they're in your same area.
The other thing to do is run a speedtest from your phone's browser:
http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
Open that link and run the test. There are many people that had a problem with accuracy with the speedtest app.
Thanks everyone for the quick reply.
@ nyydynasty - I am in the Los Angeles, CA area. The reason I asked because everything seem to be real slow when it come to my data conection. My wifi connection at home (when I connected to it) is a lot faster connection in comparison. I am not trying to compare or guage the speed. The reason I asked is to see if I should call up AT&T and complaint at them to see why my connection seem slow.
My connection varies greatly. My speeds are either 1 meg a second or up to 5 when I'm in nyc. My connection can go down really quickly though, and I'll average like 300 kb a second.

Thanks, that should be enough for me to call AT&T to see if there is a problem or not.

Wow 1.2mbps d/l and .12 u/l. Still it is slow.

My average is 4 down (I get a 6 every now and then) and 1.5 up. Lte is already available in my area and I have seen a Skyrocket clock 30 down.

5-6 down tops, and I'm in Phoenix, so LTE's in my area. Have yet to see a person with an LTE AT&T phone though. On the other hand, I've seen a Droid Razr pull down ~15 with only 3 bars.
At my house it had better connection. 2.4 d/l and 0.5 u/l

I usually get between 6-7.5 Down & 2-3 Up on My Galaxy Nexus using AT&T... Funny thing is i'm still using a European baseband..
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
in my area (MN) i get around 2-5 down, about 1 up. If you do decide to go with a custom ROM, give some different modems a try. Originally i'd rarely get over 1 down, then i decided to go through a few modems and saw some moderate improvements. Some say it makes no difference for them, but it definitely did for me.
Orange County Ca so your area should be closer to that. I live on the border of La and Orange County and the lowest i ever VHF et UNLESS i am bekng throttled is about 3-5Mbs download and as high as 7-10Mbs download being more normal.
EDIT: I think it helps tbat since i am rooted I have modified my build.prop fkr the faster speeds. Plus you can get more if you edit your apn settings (which I am not doing at this point with this pic)

Here in Ohio on my sgs2 I have had as good as 5-6 down and 2.3 up
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
For me, it ranges from 1-11 down and ~1 up
On the speakeasy speedtest, It's said I've gotten up to 12mbps down at one point. Speedtest app usually never gets over 6-7
Thanks everyone for the inputs, that tells me that my speed suck in my area. (or I am being throttled, I hope not.)
And this is the first time I got the data line since I have been with AT&T. It's only been a few months.
I doubt that I will root this phone anytime soon, it's still on the 2 years contract (got 22 months to go).
@ ROckRatt - What APN setting did you use? May be I can add a new APN and try to use that to see if I get better connection.
I would love to get it up to at least 5 or 6 download and 2 upload.

First I would call att and make sure they switched you to the 4G plan, sounds like they still have you on the 3G plan. Here are the APN settings I usually use but I do not remember if you can make them or set them up without being rooted. Most all of us are also on the contract with att also. I got mine in October if I remember correctly, whatever the first week it came out. So read up about flashing roms and just make sure to also download the return to stock packages IN CASE you ever need to return it to complete stock without att ever even knowing it was rooted and rom'd. Yoj will even be happier once you learn how.

Hello all,
I just received my S yesterday and cut down my AT&T SIM to a MicroSIM
The phone recognized it immediately, but I had to enter in the APN settings by hand.
It connected to the network fine and I have an "H" icon, but the data speeds seem much slower than with my X10.
I ran a test with the Speed Test.net APP and get anywhere from 0.15 mb/s to 0.8 mb/s. On my X10 (same SIM, same plan) I'd consistantly get over 1.5 mb/s.
I am on the MediaNet data plan. Like a mentioned, my X10 worked fine and was much faster.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for confirming that I had that right.
I just checked AT&T's coverage map and I'm right on the edge of a new HSPA+ expansion, so I'm hoping it's a coincidence and they're in middle of transitioning.
This is mine.
Another one in a different location.
Incredibly slow speeds
I just got my microsim from ATT today and I've got abismal results.
168kbps down and 139 up.
Checked and rechecked the settings, but they're the same you all are using.
Not sure what's wrong here...
Any ideas?
$15 MediaNet plan or smartphone plan?
I have the smartphone plan and I only ran one test in one location. Results were 2.4 mbps download and 1.1 mbps upload.

Smartphone plan. I just bought an iphone 4s to sell off and make some of the money back.
The receipt says datapro 3gb for smartphone.
update - changed the settings and I've got 1mps up and down. Still not very good though...

What did you change your settings to? I'm in milwaukee right now which should definitely be HSPA+ and I'm getting terrible speeds. Less than 500kb/s

I just changed it to a totally blank apn but with the word phone in the apn field. It's not been consistent at 1mbps, but has been better

Neither seems to make much difference. Can't get to 1mbps reliably and mostly comes in at around 700.
Not sure what the problem is, but it's KILLING ME!

We're in the same boat - this is driving me nuts!
I'm travelling for work today and I'm at the Houston airport and getting anywhere from 1.5 Mbps to 3.5 Mbps down and a ~380ms ping using the speedtest.net app.
I tried re-entering the settings that Augie suggested but they were exactly what I had before.
Maybe it would help to get a new SIM card from AT&T? I'm using the same 3G card that I got with my w810 walkman phone back around 2006.
Well you'regetting better results than me. I don't think it's the sim card as I just got a new one today.

I just got the phone, and configured an APN with just "phone" nothing else filled and got between 2.6 and 4.1 mpbs downloading and 1mbps uploading, so I don't think the problem is with the APN but your local network, antennas around.
I really like the look of the S but like the spec of the Ion. Don't know which one to get. Where and how much you guy pay for yours? I think best price I look was about $600.00 free shipping.
Well, I seem to be getting better speeds now (consistently over 3mbps). Like I mentioned, I'm traveling right now, so I don't know if it well be better when I get back home. I guess we'll see.

And, what kind of speeds are you getting?
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, lack of sleep. This morning I tried to access the web from my phone through 4g and recieved a 502 Bad Gateway error on any page I tried to load. I have no problems with that on wifi and I can still get my emails and use maps albeit a little slower than normal on 4g, but no web pages. it doesn't work on dolphin browser or the stock browser. No apps have been added since last night when I was using it. I've rebooted the device twice, no luck. Play store still works, so does the amazon store. Anyone else experience this issue? I don't really want to factory reset the device, but is my next stop.
Same problem for me, although seems to be other internet-connected apps too, such as foursquare and weatherbug giving errors having to do with bad connection.
WiFi on, everything works fine.
I called AT&T and said there is some data outage affecting all of the west US. My wife's iphone works fine, btw.
OP, what is your location? I am san diego.
Thanks for the info. I'm in Sacramento. Thank goodness it isn't just me. I tried to look something up and thought "WTF did I mess up in my sleep!"
I just tried setting my APN to wap.cingular, and it works, although now no LTE.

for someone like me who doesn't have LTE in my area that solution will work well. I'll probably hold off on changing until I leave work to see if the system comes back, but if it doesn't now I have a solution.
Its back up in the bay area. The outage started last night around midnight. Called this morning and seems like they didn't know about it, only knew about LA ans San diego
