I have a tablet AOC Breeze model MW0712 with Android 4.1.1.
When I want to save an APN I do: Settings -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names -> New APN
But after editing the APN settings, there are no button to save the changes.
The only proven way I have to save an APN is typing in the fields:
Name
APN
Username
Password
and leaving blank the MCC, MNC, Authentification Type and APN Type fields. With this way the APN is saved but doesn't work. If I edit the APN I've saved and I put the values for these fields, the APN disappears.
With Root Explorer I open the apns-conf.xml file (readonly) and I see full of different APNs, but APN selection screen (Settings -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names) is empty.
I haven't rooted the tablet.

Hey everyone.....
I'm a newbie so please be gentle....
I've had my phone for about 2weeks now. Last week I got it unlocked but now I'm having problems with the wap connection from fido.
Here is what I have.
t-mobile xda with fido sim
running xda-developers special edition rom v1.2
rom ver: 3.17.03 eng
rom date: 05/15/03
radio ver: 6.24.00
Protocol: 324e4
I talked to fido and they told me that because I am on prepaid they don't offer GPRS but I can connect to wap ??? I am still learning about the two, but I don't think you need to have both, but I could be wrong. anyway I talked to them and they enabled mms and wap on my account about 3 days ago so I should be able to access it by now.
here is the information they gave me.
APN: wap.fido.ca or internet.fido.ca
IP: 205.151.011.011
user: fido
pwd: fido
port: 9201
#: *99#
so I've tried multiple combinations of the above but nothing seems to work, can anyone tell me if they have had any luck getting connected with fido prepaid and how you did it.
Here is what I tried.
settings --> connection --> connections
new...
under general --> change name to wap settings
under modem --> new...
rename to wap
select a modem --> tried both celluar line
--> clicked advanced left port settings
--> TCP/IP settings
--> select use specific IP address
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried use server assigned IP address
--> Name servers
--> select use specific IP address
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried use server assigned IP address
clicked OK to accept advanced settings
clicked NEXT
--> left country code blank
--> left area code blank
--> entered *99# for phone number
--> also tried wap.fido.ca for phone number
clicked FINISHED
clicked PROXY SETTINGS
--> selected this network connects to the internet
--> selected this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
--> entered 205.151.011.011
--> also tried it with wap.fido.ca
--> tried setting wap ip and port with above information
when I try to connect it says dialing and then always comes back with there is no answer at the number you have dialed.....etc....

hello,everyone.i'd like to ask a question,i modity , configurate the content of ''/system/etc/apns-conf.xml'' and i set my own network provider's APN settings.But when I use the restore default Settings ,it didn't show the APN information，which i set in the file ''apns-conf.xml''.is there any ways can mandate the system to identify it except WIPE.thx...
PS:
finally,i found the solution,you need to modify the file of ''framework-res.apk'', the internal value of ''apns.xml'' must be consistent with that in ''etc/apns-conf.xml''.only this can work,otherwise it will be invalid.

Gingerblur has a full apns-conf.xml . Pull it from there, and push it to your phone.
If your networks MCC-MNC do not match an entry in the apns-conf.xml it won't pull up any settings.
i already tried ''apns-conf.xml'' from gingerblur,but it didn't work.my network provider is not ATT,please tell me how to fix this problem.in other words,how can ''apns-conf.xml'' itself automatically set ,which i have modified it.besides,i don't want to WIPE my atrix.FYI,i'm now living in china.
the Configuration information of my ''apns-conf.xml'' is provided by MCC-MNC information of the network i am using.
Yeah the GingerBlur apns-conf.xml file didn't work for me either. Australian networks aren't in that one. I edited the stock xml file, put in my APNs, rebooted, clicked "Reset to default" (under the APN settings page), and my two APNs were there (default & MMS).
So it should work for you. Did you reboot after editing (or pushing & pulling) the file?
1.modify ''apns-conf.xml'',
2.use adb push access into /system/etc/ to Cover the original source files,
3.reboot phone,
4.enter APN settings,Restoring default Settings ,but it didn't work.
this is my operation.it confused me.If your modifications effective,is this because the MMC MNC of your network had not been shielding ??
Moved as not andorid development
After testing，i found that the original official version 1.5.2 Really can automatically refresh the APN configuration.but what's the reason??? is there any problems with my operation method??or i didn't notice some mechanism
finally,i found the solution,you need to modify the file of ''framework-res.apk'', the internal value of ''apns.xml'' must be consistent with that in ''etc/apns-conf.xml''.only this can work,otherwise it will be invalid.
After upgrading my phone to GingerMod-6.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400023) my phone could not create an AccessPoint (Setting->Wifi & Network->Mobile network->AccessPoint) because:
- MCC, MNC are required fields, so for awhile searching I found value MCC, MNC of my network provider (452 and 01), but MNC must be at least 3 digits
After that I install AccessPoint over Setting message from my Network Provider, finally installed AccessPoint, but now my phone still could not connect to the Internet (although 3G signal is very strong).
One more: whenever I create new AccessPoint with valid values of MCC, MNC, after press Save, the phone's access point list still empty with out any warning message????
With the old ROM, I even dont need to enter value of MCC and MNC
Anybody tell me why ??? I dont want to upgrading to another firmware because my personal data
*** SOLVED, see third post ***
Hello, I'm trying to use my VWZ Note 2 on MetroPCS.
I'm rooted, stock 4.4.2.
When I use the buildprop edit suggested here, my "add access point names" menu disappears entirely:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...41691-mod-add-apn-editor-system-settings.html
If I remove the buildprop code, I get the menu back, but I can't edit anything.
I pushed my own version of "apns-conf.xml" to /sdcard/ and then pasted it into /system/etc/ and replaced the old one, changed permissions to read-only. Also tried read/write all permissions open.
I can now click the "+" button in the APNs screen. I can add/save APNS, but when (and only when) I have ALL of the correct APN info put in, it instantly deletes the APN I've added. Up to that point I can save the APN, see it in the APN list, and edit it further.
I restart phone, the APNs are all gone except the grayed-out "LTE - Verizon Internet".
I got an app to read the APN settings from the SIM card itself (the one I'm already using on my metroPCS phone). Interestingly, these are the networks on the SIM card:
T-Mobile US
Simple
StraightTalk T-Mobile
solavei
T-Mobile LTE
Added both of the T-Mobile APNs, which did save to my access point names, but no network still.
Then I realized that I am a monumental idiot. I put the SIM back in my old metroPCS phone and got the APN settings from there. For future use, here they are:
Name: MetroPCS
APN: fast.metropcs.com
MMSC: http://metropcs.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
APN protocol: IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Let's try putting those in my note 2. Why the heck I didn't try this sooner is beyond me.
Still nothing, "No signal." Also, "SIM from unknown source."
EDIT: As I suspected, the APN settings weren't being saved to apns-conf.xml in system/etc/
So I pulled, edited, pushed my new version of apns-conf.xml to have the correct metro pcs settings, put it back in system/etc/, set the correct permissions (read-only for the system).
Now I have the MetroPCS access point name, it matches apns-conf.xml, but still no connection.
I think I'm about out of options.
SOLVED.
If mod wants to truncate this into one post total, that's cool.
My process to get MetroPCS working on a VZW (Verizon) Note 2.
1: Root it
Get ghettoroot 2.2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2924899&d=1409874318
Download android SDK
Set environmental variable for adb commands. Note that you add the command after whatever is already in "path" variable, with a semicolon between: http://jaxov.com/2010/10/set-up-adb-on-windows-7-vista-xp-for-android-phones/
Uninstall any samsung stuff, especially KIES. Then install samsung drivers: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I605TSAVZW
Ghettoroot your phone. You'll need to enable usb debugging, under developer options. How to enable developer options: System settings > about phone > Build number. Press "Build number" like 7 times or so and it will unlock dev options.
Now we need to do some APN settings. Follow this for the method, rest of this post for the info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449
APN info (if value not shown, leave blank/default):
Name: MetroPCS
APN: fast.metropcs.com
MMSC: http://metropcs.mmsvno.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri,*
APN protocol: IPv6
You'll want to have those settings both in the apns-conf.xml, and in the More Settings>Mobile Networks>Access point names
Activate your phone with MetroPCS.
Remove "Unknown SIM card" notification: Long press the notification to figure out which app is creating it (app info), then use titanium backup to uninstall it.
I have read and read i am having issues now since the sim message is generated by tbe system ui i cant kill this is in the verizon note 2 when i install the sim it force closes everything any thoughts would be great.
Ugh. Try doing a factory reset and starting over.
Make sure you use TitaniumBackup to uninstall (preferably freeze if you own pro) the app that's causing the SIM message. You must be rooted of course. Not sure why things would force close, you might have got rid of wrong system app.

If you are rooted, install Root Explorer, open it and click on the r/w at the top , navigate to the app folder, find the setup wizard folder and delete it. Restart phone and the message will be gone!
