Hey all, I recently flashed PA 5.0 to my VS985, and things are going swimmingly except for some APN issues I'm having with Verizon LTE. I've tried editing the APNs in accordance with apn-settings.com but that hasn't made a difference. Whenever I try to edit the APN to those specifics and save it, the APN disappears. Essentially, this is leaving me with MMS or cellular data.
Could anyone provide some insight into this?
Thank you.

Hey xda'ers.
So I made the mistake of flashing Modoco's custom ROM to my Hero, without first writing down the APN settings in the Telus ROM. Now, I have no HSPA connection and no APN in my phone.
Would someone be so kind as to post all the APN settings from their Telus HTC Hero?
Much appreciated.
EDIT: Alright, I called Telus. Apparently it's some real easy APN settings. All you need to fill in in your APN is the actual "APN" field as:
sp.telus.com
Name it whatever you want. Done. Got my data back. Hopefully this helps people in the future.

does this apn setting work on any telus android phone i mean Htc Desire(using telus)...i didnt write down my apn from telus rom too...n now my data connection is gone..Plz help
found my apn settings n now it works anyway thx
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

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.
NAME
Viaero Connect
APN
internet.vedge.com
APN TYPE
internet
NAME
Viaero MMS
APN
mms
MMSC
http://mms.viaero.com
MMS PROXY

MMS PORT

APN TYPE
mms
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.

This isn't really a problem. It's just a question out of curiosity...aimed at the guys who tear down ROMs on a regular basis, or whoever else might know.
Okay so here's my scenario. I have a Verizon Note 2 which I use here in the Caribbean on a GSM network. Most of the time I use ATT or N7105 roms (without the ATT/n7105 modems of course) since I'm using a GSM network.
Whenever I use ATT/N7105 roms, my phone automatically retrieves APN settings for internet and mms from my carrier.
When I use Verizon ROMs like I am right now, I never receive these APN and MMS settings automatically.
I know my APN settings but it's convenient having it retrieved automatically when I switch sim cards.
What part of the ROM is it that allows this to happen when I'm using ATT roms?
Is it something in the build.prop that I'm missing? CSC settings or something else?

Well for the 1% that might be interested I figured out the answer. It turns out the ATT and N7105 roms apn-conf.xml file had my carrier's apn/mms settings.
So just replacing that file in my Verizon rom got my settings added automatically.
Hey guys, I'm royally stumped with this issue. For some background info I have the VZW G3 (VS985) and I have it on Straight Talk using their CDMA/LTE network (Verizon/Sprint).
My Problem
On any CM-based (or more generally, AOSP) ROM I cannot get data. This is a new issue since the past few days. I tried on Candy5, BlissPop, and ResurrectionRemix. I had data working on BlissPop for awhile until one day it just stopped working. If I go to a stock-based ROM (I only tried JasmineROM) data works perfectly again. According to the Phone Info in the service menu, GPRS isn't connecting. If I toggle the radio it'll say connecting until I leave the screen and come back when it'll say disconnected. I'm not sure what's causing the issue, and would love to know if anyone else is having an issue. I hate the stock ROM with a passion (the layout and UI) and would love to stick to AOSP if I can. Thanks in advance!!
EDIT
The Solution
My APN settings were off. I went back to stock to get the APN and it turns out that Straight Talk changed the APN name. Here is the APN info...

I'm on cm 12.1(snapshot) and occasionally lose my data but this usually happens when i'm coming back from twrp. A soft reset solves this issue for me. What are your network settings? I'm on Verizon also. Mine are Global/automatic/(ruim/sim). apn is verizon internet.

Try flashing the latest 23c modem for the vs985
It turns out it was the APN settings. I went to stock and grabbed the APN. Because I'm on Straight Talk via BYOP the APN name was different. I'll edit the OP with the APN info for anyone else who needs it.

How did you enter the apn6 info? The only options I can get are reset to default and rename?
Total Wireless data on AOSP Roms
Running the byop total wireless, a knockoff or subdivision of straighttalk / tracfone. I cannot get a SIM card to activate on anything other than the TOT stock 10b. Event the stripped 12B zip did not work on the second phone i tried to activate. After the SIM cards are activated i can flash anything but only get data when i flash the 12B stock debloated ROM. I have called in a couple times and they are clueless, just many reboots and time wasted. Tried messing with apn settings but no luck. Iv tried the Pac rom, dirty unicorn, sky dragon, ect they all have the same problem.
flash 35b and go dialer *#*#4636#*#* and choose wcdma or lta wcdma.. or change rado band only if have automatic mode
