[Q] Switching between APNs - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Suppose I need to synchronize email and access the intranet using APN#1 but all other accesses need to go through APN#2.
On WinMo, there was the option to automatically select a different APN for work or internet related access. MMS also went automatically via yet another APN.
How can this be done on Android 2.2?

[Q] Automatic APN switching? / Do I need to manually change APN while roaming?

Hi, I've just flashed the Android Revolution HD 3.3 rom and 12.41.60.19_26.06.04.14_M radio.
I noticed that I was not able to use data connection until I manually enter the APN for my network provider.
Back when I was using the stock rom, it used to load APN settings automatically when I put in the sim card (I have two sim card from different networks, when I switch the cards, the APN settings changes automatically). I was wondering if there's anyway to make this rom do the same thing?
If not, this is not a big problem when I'm in town, as I can enter both networks APN and choose them manually instead.
However, will I'll need to research into APN for other networks before I travel? What happens to the APN settings while I'm on roaming?
===
Edit: In case this matters: I am in Hong Kong, using CSL and 3.
Edit2: both provides are in the apns-conf.xml file, somehow the APN still aren't switching automatically

Docomo Arc adding APN failed (but I got a semi solution)

Dear all,
I have flahsed docomo's rom for the ARC on my HK branded ARC, and for some peculiar reasons, when I tried to add an APN for my provider, which has a different MCC and MNC, that APN will not save on the phone. If you used the default MCC and MNC as the Japanese APN's, it will stay there but as soon as you change those settings that particular APN will disappear.
Out of desperation I went to the market to see if there are any APN apps that can force save a setting. I thus downloaded APN manager and it worked for I can, through that app, choose the APN I wanted to use and it will work!
However, if you go to setting by pressing the menu button to see the list of APNs stored in your phone, the one that is saved using the APN manager will disappear and you have to redo it again... So you cant open the APN menu under network settings... very queer...
But at least I have a semi solution for now, and I have no idea why the docomo ROM runs smoother than the official HK 2.3.3.... But unfortunately, it is only a 2.3.2 ....

You need to make sure apn settings are correct for your carrier.
Thanks
APN settings have been verified. BTW I am able to browse on data network, howbeit it only works on opera...

Note 2 Mobile Data Fix.

If after installing a new rom and find that your mobile data doesn't work, go to Settings/Connections/More Networks/
Access Point Names. If there is nothing written, simply Google (your carrier name) APN settings. After finding them, manually insert them into the empty spaces. If completed correctly, providing there isn't a problem within the kernel, your mobile data will start working almost immediately (providing you remembered to switch it on)
I hope this helps others that face the same problem.

[Q] Download data configuration

Hi, I'm using the Resurrection Remix ROM and I have a problem: I can't found the voice, into Settings, to download the data configuration, so, now, I can access to the internet only via wi-fi.
Anyone knows where can I find the voice to download the data configuration?
At least, you're always able to manually do the APN configuration.
You are right, thank you
