Help Mediatek Android (Made to look like IOS) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi could anyone help me I have an Mediatek Iphone 6+ Clone which is actually Android. although thats a problem in of itself. The problem I'm having is that I am unable to enter the APN settings, I am able to navigate to the APN page but there is no option to add APN (I'm guessing where Android has a "Menu" button to bring up Add APN, the IPhake doesn't). I've tried various method such as APN apps, Floating menu button apps and now i'm trying by ADB.
First off I have rooted the phone.
the APN settings I need are
APN Carrier: Lebara UK
I have tried the following a few guides which i found via googling but I cant seem to get them to work
I would post what I tried however I am unable to post URL's

You won't find much help here. We don't deal with knock off devices.

[Q] Proxy Settings

Hello,
Im fairly new to all this, i used to have a G1 that supported proxy settings for the WIFI via a custom rom. However my x10 mini pro doesn't seem to have this, is there anyway i can get this extra settings?
Thanks,
Ant..
ok - so now that custom roms can be installed on this phone, does anyone know how the proxy settings are added to other custom rom phones? I have done some searching but it has taken me back here!!!
What do you want the setting for?
If you want to open the blocked sites then there is apps to do that.
i have the same problem- to conect ot my school network you need to be able to edit proxy settings!
Hi there
you can try this app:
WiFiACE (for WiFi Advanced Config Editor). You can find it in the market or via the appbrain app.
I use it to connect to my Uni network.
Cheers

Help about creating new APN 4.1.2

Hello, and good day everyone!
I can't create a new APN in my phone. I own a samsung galaxay star GT-S5282.
I tried using giffgaff, but when i save the APN that giffgaff made, it isn't there. And I tried doing it manually too. It's not there when i press save.
I tried using APN backup and restore, and when i open the app, it says
"Unfortunately APNs cannot be restored or deleted on this device because android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party apps to write APN settings."
I already checked the unknown sources in settings>security>unknown sources.
I don't know what to do to create new APN, so i'd appreciate it if someone can help me. Thanks and have a nice day! :good:
EDIT: Btw, I already searched for it. But unfortunately can't find any solutions.

Install system app mover.apk as well as busybox.apk These are also available on Playstore.
Also install APN manager pro.
Run system appmover and turn APN manager pro into a system app.
Run APN manager and adjust/insert APN as you please. You can even delete the default entries and put your own. You are now ready to connect to a network of your own.
Make sure you have the correct modem and have network signal on your phone.
Get in touch in case of any query.

FIX for unable to add APNs (tested for LG G3)

For some reason I was unable to find this anywhere on the internet but managed to fix it myself, so I'm writing here to document it.
I have a T-Mobile LG G3 (model LG-D851) and after rooting, something happened that made me no longer able to add APNs. On top of that, there were no APNs registered on the phone, so I was unable to access any form of mobile data, although telephone worked. T-Mobile's technical support wasn't able to find the solution either. (In retrospect, using Titanium Backup to restore telephony data (messages etc.) likely corrupted my APN database).
Basically what was happening was in Settings -> Networks -> Tethering & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names, it said "No APNs", and selecting menu -> New APN did nothing; no menu appeared or anything. Basically I didn't have T-Mobile's LTE APN registered and I couldn't re-add it.
I tried a lot of things to fix it, but the solution was actually very easy (requires root): in the root directory, go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ and notice the "telephony.db" file. This is an SQLite database that has the APN data in it, but in my case it was corrupted. I simply renamed the file, then rebooted my phone (actually, the phone crashed ) and voila! LTE was working good as new on restart. The system detected the file was missing and created a new one with default settings; that is, with T-Mobile's APN already inside. "Add APN" also works now.
Maybe someday this will help someone else in my situation. Basically, be careful with Titanium Backup, haha.

[Q] Rooted lg g3, No APNs, no ability to add APNs

Hi, so before I go out and purchase a new SIM I was hoping someone could help me. Originally I was trying to alter the MMS port set in my APN because MMS was failing over wifi due to running Adblock. In doing so I somehow managed to erase my Internet APN. I believe it was just set to vzwinternet.
So on my lg g3 I unfortunately have no way to add an APN, it works fine for wifi and calls still but I have no cellular internet at the moment. The only option when going to APN settings is Reset to Defaults, which does nothing as it just shows "No APNs". The mobile networks option is actually greyed out under Settings->Wireless & Networks->More... but I'm able to get to APN Settings still by using an app.
Possible solutions I've thought of, does anyone knows if these are possible?
A) Is there any way to edit my build.prop to allow me to add an APN such as "ril.sales_code=LOL & ro.csc.sales_code=LOL" (I've tried this it doesn't work).
B) Is it possible to re-add it by replacing apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/ ? If that is possible could someone post theirs so I can replace it?
C) Are there any root apps to allow me to add an APN? (from my research there aren't any since android 4.0)
Or am I just going to have to go out and get a new SIM? I've already master reset hoping it was software related and that hasn't helped.
EDIT: Nevermind guys fixed it by doing a reflash back to factory with lg flashtool. Nothing to see here *whistles*
Hi Jab
I met the same issue.
Could you please tell me how to reflash back to factory?
Thank you
You need to root it, and use shortcut master to open APN setting, same case with my US Cellular G3

TCL A30 android 11, stock ROM rooted visible wireless

Hi, I have a TCL A30 and I am attempting to use visible wireless. The problem is, I can't change my apn settings. I tried to edit the .xml file that contains the apn and but no luck. The file doesn't save. I have tried so many different things and it is the only thing that is preventing me from really being able to use the service. When I use adb to launch the apn setting, the options for mvno are greyed out. It's as if the sim card contains something that forces the os to not let you change any apn settings. I've been working at this for a couple of days and the only thing I am able to use is vzwinternet. I want to be able to use hotspot and high speed data and the only roadblock is these apn settings. There has to be some way to manually configure apn settings that I am overlooking. If anyone has any insight please let me know. It would be greatly appreciated. TCL A30 running android 11 rooted.
