[Q] MMS for Att 920 - Nokia Lumia 920

So I've had my phone for about 3 weeks now...Brought it at full-retail and at the store the att rep told me that I would not be able to get data and/or picture messaging on this phone at all.
Well I did some googling around and I discovered the settings to enable data connection on my phone and I am able to actually use mobile data to browse.
But i can not send or receive picture messages. I found some about mms apn settings but they still do not work.
It's pretty annoying since I am essentially paying 65 bucks a month and can't use this phone to it's full extent.
Could anyone offer any help?
Edit: It's an Att Nokia 920

My guess? It's not the phone; it's the data plan. Call AT&T. I have the same device on AT&T and it works just fine.

I assume you are using it on Contract? I am using mine on pre-paid/gophone $65 monthly
Can you tell me what settings you have set for your mms apn settings?

straight talk??
if you are using straight talk, you have to manually add the apn settings for MMS and Internet.
i dont know what plan, carrier you are using, maybe more information on your part so we can help you better?
edit:
straight talk BYOD plan $45/ month includes unlimited talk, text, mms, and data. data i hear is 2gig max, other say after 2gigs they get the brakes slamed on to slower speeds till they cap at 4gig and then
they get shut off of data till their month cycle or they can pay $45 again to reset cycle.
i only use mostly wifi but anyways my two cents

I am using Gophone SMartphone plan with Att.
I had figured out the apn settings to get mms the other day and it was working but i reset my phone and now i lost them and i can't figure it out

[Q]Only web2go internet when I have the full data plan?

So I had a Touch Pro2 and the internet worked as it should with no restrictions, when I first put my SIM card into my new Vibrant the internet worked and everything so rooted, flashed a few ROMs/kernals until I got the right combination and the internet doesn't work... it takes me to that stupid web2go crap.
So I put the SIM in my TP2 and it works like normal, then back into the Vibrant and still goes to that crappy web2go! I can't use the market or anything because, for some reason, it won't let me use the internet plan I pay for!
Anyone might know why and how to fix it? Should I call T-Mobile and complain?
I mean when I do go into market the 3G arrows do show that it's doing something, but I always get the whole "Please check your internet connection and try again" and I have manually selected T-Mobile as my carrier in the settings, airplane mode on, reboot, then off... nothing works .
I love this phone lol any help is greatly appreciated!!
Call T-Mobile.
When I switched from a Blackberry to my Vibrant I had to call T-Mobile and switch from the BB data plan to the Android one. Before I did that I had a lot of weird issues. Might be something like that.
But isn't like Windows Mobile and Android listed as the same type of smartphone?
Ugh, so I might have to pay more for my internet??
Man T-Mobile is getting outrageous. They're lucky they have nice phones... man I'll be pissed if my internet is going to cost more.
Nope, it'll cost the same. ALL smartphone plans cost $30, and $25 for loyal customer discount.

I pay $20 as loyal
Wonder when I'll be considered a loyal customer? Been with them for like 3 years, but never had a contract lol...
So I'll just basically have to change to a "different" data plan specifically for Android but will cost the same? Well that's stupid.
Check Settings
Check your APN settings, Does it say epc.tmobile.com?
Yes sir, and APN Type says internet + MMS.
All my settings are as follows:
(I will only post the things that have some sort of value in them)
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication Type: None
APN Type: internet + mms
Doing some googling it appears that those are all the correct and only needed values :/, yeah just going to give T-Mobile a call tomorrow... weird though .
There are 2 (maybe 3?) android data plans...Mytouch line and similar use a specific data plan, and all other android phones use a generic data plan.
Had to switch from the G1/MT3GS plan to the "Android" plan once I got my Vibrant.
So it pisses me off when places like T-Mobile try to jip off customers just because of the quality of the phone.
My Touch Pro2 (with the 20$ data plan) gets the EXACT SAME GOD DAMN 3G that my Vibrant gets (HSDPA 2100).. so why the hell do I have to pay 10 extra dollars for "Android" internet??
WHAT the **** is the difference?? What the hell extra am I paying for? Not like this phone gets 4G then maybe I would understand.
Ugh pisses me off badly, going to call them tomorrow just to trip them up as to WHY and WHAT am I paying for extra when the data throughput is the EXACT same!!
Bah!!

how to setup AT&T $10 data on Vibrant

Hello there Vibrant users,
I was just wondering if any1 know how to setup an unlocked vibrant with at&t $10 data plan. I bought my phone already unlocked and root. When i insert my sim card, it's says i have 3g network and data was up and running when i don't have a data plan yet. I just recently added the $10 data plan on my phone but don't know if i am using it. It already have at&t settings already before i got the phone and does MMS share the same thing or seperate. Can any1 help?
Thanks.
Once you add a data plan to your account that's pretty much it. Are you saying it isn't connecting?
Oh I see. It is connecting but I was just wondering the part when i got the phone without the data plan yet, the 3g was up running already before i got the $10 data plan that's all. Oh yeah what about the MMS? Do I have to do something about that too or it'll just use the data plan to get it.
I have had a Vibrant unlocked and rooted for several months now and currently using the At&t $10 (non-smartphone) unlimited data plan. This does work and I haven't had to pay those ridiculous prices for data since my Torch.

The 3G will always be up and running because ATT wants to make money from you even if you dont have a data plan. I'm actually thinking of switching to the HTC Incredible S just because it has the other data frequency. Not sure how much of a difference it would make though.

Help picking prepaid service for streak

I was going to go with simple mobile but then saw I would only be able to get EDGE so I was thinking about getting a gophone and using that so I can get 3G. I went to go pick up a go phone simply and saw the 50 plan says its not for smartphone.
Will my internet work if I just get the monthly unlimited plan? Are there any other options and if i was to just go with simple mobile simple is EDGE that slow?
Any help is appreciated!!!
have you looked into h2o wireless? Last i heard they functioned on at&t network so you'd get full 3g
Yea I have looked at H20 and I'm not sure how long 1gb of data is gonna last for 60 a month. I know in the past I saw people using go phone sims with iphones and just wanted to know lf it's still working while getting internet on the 50 a month plan without buying a data plan also..l
hey this is off topic but, your talking about these data plans etc, ive seen a few posts on here regarding this. in my opinion they all seem a little pricey?
what exactly are you getting for 50 or 60 dollars a month?? here in the uk for 15 usd(10 gbp) i get 250 mins any network, unlimited texts any network, and unlimited data, which is hsdpa (7.2mbps) or 3g in lower signal areas
so my question is what are you getting for your money and why so expensive?
also im pay as you go, are your plans contract or pay as you go?
Only att is pricey, if you have metro pcs or simple mobile its only 50 a month with unlimited talk text and web.
But why is it so pricey?? I guess its a contract??

I really don't know.
Does anybody know if using the sim from a e71 with straight talk still working?
I use 3 in the UK
The One Plan.
2,000 any network minutes
5,000 Three-to-Three minutes
5,000 texts and All You Can Eat internet ( With no "fair usage" policy, you can use all the data you want at no extra cost. )
£25 p/m
And tethering is allowed
Anybody else got any info???

[Q] {Q} Straight Talk vs. AT&T go phone

I have been using gophone service for the last year or so and it's so epensive. My mother on the other hand has been paying 45 bucks for unlimited talk/text. I pay 60 bucks a month for a 2gb data unlimited tet/talk package + 2 gig's of add'l data (80-90 bucks total a month)...She just got this 45 dollar package that contains 4 sim card's (2 micro/standard sim cards & 2 nano sim cards). Well I got her phone working (it wasnt hard, it's not a smartphone)..I used a micro-sim card, inserted it into the slot...The phone tells me to reboot so I did..I expect to see bars or something but nothing happens. I than went to the apn settings and it has att, att phone, att broadband, att lte, straight talk & straight talk.mnvo...None of them work and all of them are forcing me back to the 3g selection instead of LTE preferred...How can I active a sim card that isnt showing me the right apns to give my phone (lg optimus g e970) data ? I really have no desires to go back to at&t go phone service....ST would give me 2.5 gb of high speed data + unlimited data/text for 45 bucks a month (a big difference in money)....once you use up the 2.5 gb of data it switches to using 2g data for data....when you use all your data with gophone, you have to buy another 1gb data package (10 bucks)...I dont have wifi....
You may wanna be concise in your description of issues. Too much unrelated stuff mixed in, my eyes are losing track
Try this:
Name: straight talk
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS PROXY: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS PORT: 80
MMS:80
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
Also you may need to call straight talk to activate the sims
yeah that apn was already included, I selected it. I went back to the mobile settings menu and selected LTE as preferred than pressed the back button. I went back to mobile settings and it was on 3g...No bars, ...I guess I do need to call ST just to activate the card...the pack my mother got contains onlye 1 service pin card but comes with 4 different sim cards (all with different serial numbers)...I really thought Id be able to stick the sim card in my phone and it show me if I actually get 4g LTE service on this phone thru ST...I didnt want to pay the 45 or 60 bucks for a plan for it to not work than have to pay an additional 60 bucks for ATT go phone service. When ST did not work...I did check the compatibility thru the straight talk website. It did say the phone was compatible with the e970. If you have a 4g LTE phone, wouldnt you want 4g LTE and not just 3g or HSPA+
I'm on straight talk too. You get att 4g lte with straight talk on this phone
This isn't a shared plan, you and you mom can't both use one 45 dollars plan. If your mom use a dumb phone she can use the All You Need plan through straight talk, which is even cheaper than this.
Also don't get too excited, the 4g lte you get through straight talk isn't gonna be as fast as att customers.

Im not sure Ive ever heard that before, but thanks for the heads up...I guess Ill stick with att go phone. So why did you choose straight talk and not att go phone ? the only reason I was thinking about getting ST was b/c of the 2.5 gb's of data given to the 45/60 buck plan and the fact that you still have data when you've used up the 2.5 gig's...With att go phone, you get 2 gb's with the 60 dollar plan...You have a choice of buying an additional 1gb package of 10 dollars...So say tommorrow when I get paid...Ill end up having 4 gb's of data...but all of that data is a constant speed, there is no cap on speed....I watch what I download, dont usually download anything over 10mb's when using data....Ive watched porn a few times (streams) but im not sure how much data is used to stream a short clip or a continuous stream....I know FB is a huge data hog, so I try to limit my time on FB...There is wifi around my neighborhood but I only use it when Im downloading roms

I had go phone long time ago. It was expensive so got rid of it for virgin mobile. Their beyond talk plan is 35, 300 minutes was not enough anymore, also tired of cdma phone so switched to ST. With ST you still get 2.5 gbs of data and unlimited 2g data after 2.5 is exhausted. The saving is what's real, man. Looks like you also work, so I'm sure you understand this. Prepare myself for an hour on the phone with ST retards if your switching your # over too
I stuck with at&t gophone....might do the switch later down the road..no idea, start college in may...do minds focused on that and everything

It is here. I compared my ST speeds to two coworkers AT&T LTE phones last month. (Yeah, we're reeeeaaal productive some days.) Using the same servers, my speeds were nearly identical to one S4 and we were both a hair faster than a Samsung Note (3?) that we borrowed for the test.
All three were much faster than I was getting with a T-mo SIM for Simple Mobile, whether on LTE or or not. I'm leary of anything at Walmart, and I did have issues signing up and porting my number, but I've been happy with my three months on ST, especially after seeing more consistent coverage when travelling. I was mostly happy with T-Mo's network before I had an LTE-capable phone, but I'll stick to ST/AT&T.

[Q] anyone else have 4g/lte tab??

I just put in a tmobile sim card in my HDx 7. I was under the impression that data would only flow when you registered with tmobile for either a postpaid tablet plan or the prepaid data for tablet that can be the 200 mb free or add more to that.
I have data flowing without signing up for anything. I can connect to aol, amazon, and stream music. Is this uncommon? As long as I have free data I'm not going to sign up for anything. I don't have a tmobile account so I don't think they can charge me?? Any feedback?
It came with an att sim. That also connected to data, but I didn't check if I could access anything. I switched to the tmobile sim.
**************************************************
Alas.....free data has run it's course. Had to sign up today. But since it's free, no problem.
Speed?

Hi,
What kind of speed were you getting with your t-mobile data? Does this tab have all the T-mobile 4G and LTE band?
Thanks

I never thought to test but for you I did!
I have t-mobile lte in the status bar. I ran OOkla speedtest/speedtest.net and here are the results.
ping- 40 ms DL-11.62 mbps UP- 20.90 (wow!) Why the upload speed is twice that of the DL speed is weird. I only ran it once since I only have 200 mb free plan. I'll check how much data that used.
************************************************************************************
After using the speedtest app, t-mobile never deducted any data from my 200mb free. Weird. It's been almost a week. Data should have updated by now.
Wow that's not bad at all. Thanks for the info. I might just consider getting one of these now that they're on sale.

I just want to add I am in North Jersey which has great tmobile service. The only problem is what you expect with the 1700 band which is no signal deep into big buildings, like the back of Shoprite, or costco. Stuff like that. I haven't tested tmo lte since I switched back to att with my family for my cellphone. I don't lose att service in shoprite or costco, so there is a difference. But both use band 4 lte, so they should perform the same.
I have a question for other lte kindle users. Is it possible to enable sms on the kindle hdx 7 via data? Outside of whatsapp or GV over wifi. I know there was a work around for the nexus 7 lte that allowed sms but not mms.
Call over data would be great but I don't think that is going to happen. Talkatone, GV, skype will have to do.
Talkatone has reconfigured their set up that use to use GV as a go between. GV is no longer involved. I got an email giving 30 min. of call out time to re sign up with their new talkatone. You get a telephone number, and 10 free minutes to call out, with an additional 10 to link your cell number and facebook acct. They said this is to make sure you are a real person, but.....I have enough stuff demanding you sign in with your facebook acct. I don't need anymore. I'll stick with 10 free. You can buy 60 min. for $0.99. That's $0.0165 per min. or approx. 1.5 cents per minute. And their customer service is superb. They got back to me in 24 hrs via email, and stayed with me till I got all my various accounts sorted out. They were following up my emails within 30 min to an hour.
And it's free!
Anyway to enable sms on this tab?
I just got a data sim off ebay. $12, t-mo with 1gb lte, then drops to 3g unlimited till the end of the month and unlimited texting. This sim had 6 months prepaid for your $12. Just wondering if I can use the texting on my kindle lte. Assuming I did not get ripped off that is! lol. Seller had 100% positive feedback with lots of transactions.
Can this tablet be hacked to get sms working? I read somewhere someone has incoming working, but not outgoing.
Google searched and nothing comes up. Not anywhere.
