[Q] Unable to send and receive MMS

I just recently purchased the Desire and the same night I rooted my phone with unrevoked. Since then I have been unable to send and receive MMS. Some of my coworkers who got new phones the same day and didn't touch them are able to receive MMS. My question is, do you think that this is because I rooted it, or chance it is a problem with my phone? If it is a problem with the phone, do I have to unroot it before bringing it in to my service provider or do you think they wouldn't notice?

Prob be something to do with the root. Just flash a stock Froyo rom and it should be alright. Just make sure you do a nandroid backup first just to be safe

I had the same issue with my Desire, but managed to fix it just yesterday.
Find the homepage for your provider and they normally have a guide for setting up MMS, which is, normally in the case of HTC Desire, automatic. But if you try see the manual set-up for non-supported phones and you enter those values/data, it's all gravy again

Sounds like a pretty common problem with small providers. I tried looking around and was unable to find any settings on the website...

Try see if you can Google it. I noticed that there are sites which are dedicated to collecting all the settings of different providers (definitely here in DK) and making them accessible in tables.

Man...I've been trying to find it but I can't....I have cellcom (usa-Wisconsin) maybe someone else can help me locate something.

Okay, I also tried seeing if I could find the settings for cellcom in the States and no luck: just Israel. Also not a very informative webpage for cellcom either.
If you don't want to unroot your phone etc. I would think contacting the company by mail and asking for the manual settings might pay off. I'm pretty sure this is the issue as mms and internet settings are automatically set-up for each phone model in some providers and rooting might have removed the settings from identifying it as an HTC Desire, though I have no way to be sure.
So you should receive a reply with the MMS proxy and port, the MMSC and APN.
It definitely worked for me.
Hope it all works out!

[Q] HTC Connection Setup on Omnia 7

Hi guys,
can anyone share with me how to make HTC Connection Setup app work on Samsung Omnia 7 to use the app to setup MMS, I have manage to install the app in Omnia 7 but it is not running because the device is not HTC…. I need your help..
This is my story:
I have WP7 Omnia 7 and i cannot send MMS because Samsung network profile is stupid and they don’t have any setting for any mobile operator in Saudi Arabia while HTC HD7 user here in Saudi Arabia are using MMS fine in any mobile operator..

i don't think that the htc app have the same system paths and values to change the network profile...
the last days samsung have updated the profile app, so at worst you have to wait until their will be another update of the profile app.

If you unlocked your phone, then you can just download the Samsung Tools, that will help you to set up MMS, remove the 10 unsign apps, prevent from re-locking, etc

i have tried all possible solution including samsung tool but still im not able, the only was is to use HTC connection setup to configure MMS on my mobile..

Well, delete your APNs and uninstall network profile and try it one more time.

i have the mms setting, can someone write a tool to fix it up in the mobile.

Sorry to be a complete amateur but how do you delete the APNs?

[Q] Not able to create New APN

Friends, am facing a peculiar problem.
I have been trying to create a 'New APN' under Mobile Network settings>Access Point Names. I am able to edit the fields and finally give 'Save APN' option. It shows the message 'APN Saved'. After this point I am not able to see the new APN anywhere under the Access Point Names.The three old ones(default) are there. I restarted the phone, but still the new APN I created/added is missing.
This was tried about 4-5 times, first time with the help of customer support (telecom operator) but result is same. Am I doing something wrong here? Is there no other option but to edit one of the default one? I am curious My OneV is on stock ROM and unrooted.

Those tech support guys asked me to change the value of MNC from 19(default) to 02. Should I keep that as 19 itself?

That solved IT!!
Thanks soham, you were spot on.. I kept the value unchanged and the new APN got added to the list. So now I can use the mobile network option. If not a big trouble, can you tell me what that MNC field stands for? And why is it user-editable if it do not accept any other value? Just curious.

MNC stands for mobile network code, it identifies which network you are currently connected to and hence, I guess cannot be changed. However, the whole "change MNC to delete" thing is only on Android. Nothing happens to the apns when you change the value on any other os, and you can still connect to the mobile network..I personally have grid it on symbian and even java.

[Q] Mobile data problem

Hello.
So i bought a galaxy nexus GSM white version from Bulgarian carrier VIVACOM. I turned it on then updated to android 4.1.1
I tried to activate the mobile data with a SMS that i recieve from the carrier but it didn't work. Yesterday i called them and we installed the settings. Nothing happened. After that we deleta wap.carrier.bg. Again no effect. After long converse we didn't manage to trun the 3g and they told me that with them everything is ok. My status bar is gray and i hardly saw the "H" appearing, but still no data. I read here and in other forums, but didn't find the solution. I read here solution with changing the Radial, but I don't want to mess with this and also it is now my job. My current Radial Module is I9250XXLF1.
I want to aks you if this issue can be solved. If not i will try to change the phone with different one. I like JB, but i need a working phone.
Thank you!

Have you looked into your APN settings? That's often where issues occur for GSM phones.

fixed
The I roblem is fixed. I went to store to explain the problem and maybe return the phone. It,let is from the settings, those from call service don't know a lot. He put the settings into mms.thecarrier.bg and deleted the new APN I created. In the end everything is just fine. So I hope I will help others.

Good sharing, I think I met the similar problem, could u pls give more detail abt yr solution?

From call service of the carrier told me to create new APN. That was wrong, because nothing happened. The next day I went to one of the carrier store and explain this problem to the servant. He said it should be from the settings there is no way not to work. So he deleted the new APN that I created and put the settings into mms.thecarrier.bg. When I ask the call service what should I do with mms.thecarriername.bg should I deleted it like I deleted wap.thecarriername.bg and they said "you can leave it like this"

[Q] How to change locked APN?

I've have recently upgraded to HTC One M8 and as such transferred my number over to a new micro sim.
The transfer was from a micro Tmobile sim to a Nano Tmobile sim (UK) - this was done in store.
Problem - only some apps recognise the WCDMA (3G) connection as a legitimate connection. Google Play Store, Spotify, Google Now, Google Now Voice and a few others will not connect to internet reporting back a "no connection" error or timing out.
Other streaming apps such as youtube, vimeo, vevo, facebook all work fine.
I have tried:
WCDMA Only - no effect on problem.
GSM Only - all apps work.
WCDMA GSM Auto - no effect.on problem.
:good: I have also bought a 3 UK pay as you go sim - this works perfectly with no errors. :good:
The conclusion im coming to is I may have some issues with the APN settings for Tmobile UK (which in reality is EE-Everywhere) - however on the HTC One M8 the APN settings are locked, they can not be edited. I can add a new APN connection but it can not be selected.
Does anyone know how to unlock the APN options. I have tried Tweakker APN from Google Play but this has no effect.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Never heard of locked apns,though the first thing I did was flash a custom Rom, maybe that's your answer? Get viper rom on there and never look back!

Custom rom is on the list, as last resort, in-case I have to send phone back. Trying to ascertain if its the sim thats locking the APN, if I put in different networks sim card the APN is not locked.

Have you selected the correct network operator first in network settings ?

Yep definately.

The apns are stored in an xml file in the rom, the rom identifies the sim and finds the corresponding apn info. There is a reasonably easy way around this: decrypt your framework-res.apk and change the apns.xml file and then reencrypt the file and push it back to the phone. There is a guide somewhere on xda that covers it in detail.

Update: I've rooted and installed several Roms (Viper, InsertCoin). The Viper rom allowed me to change the APN settings. This had no effect on the issue.
So I've accertained:
1. Its not the phones hardware as other networks sims work perfectly.
2. Its not the APN settings - I have managed to change them they have no effect.
3. It is not Sense 6.0 as I have tried Google Play Edition Rom.
4. It is not my Tmobile account - I have spoke to them several times on the phone.
Leading me to the conclusion it must be the new nano sim and the way its communicating with phone. I have bought a nano sim adapter to that I can try it in my old phone to see if this is the case.
As a side note - i had a bizarre conversation with HTC support, the guy tried to convince me my "Google Account was corrupted" and this was causing the issue. I said to him this is not a real thing and he is talking out of his backside. It also doesn't explain why I can't connect to spotify. But I humored him and signed in with a fresh google account - no difference. Just for my piece of mind - is there any such thing as a corrupted google account?

UPDATE
After much searching around I found an article indicating that Google play and Google play services may have a bug when your data and time is set to automatic.
I switched the date and time to manual and the play store, Google now, search all started working for the first time.
Does anyone know why date and time would be an issue?
