MDA Pro -> Jasjar ROM Upgrade : T-Mobile UK Settings Help

Hi all -
First of all, this isn't a "Help - a ROM upgrade killed my baby" post.
All (seems) to be working just fine, and I'm getting email pushed to me very happily (hurrah).
I do, however, have a question about the connections settings, which I'm hoping other UK users can help me with.
I've set up the gprs/umts connection to use access point "general.t-mobile.uk" as my device previously had. I've set the username / password to user /pass, as I found out doing a quick search.
My problem is, though, that whilst the (U) symbol is shown, my connection rate is ridiculously slow (like treacle).
Are there any other settings I should be reviewing? Is that username/password correct?
Thanks for any suggestions

Okay - having rebooted the phone, I'm unable to make a data connection at all. Is this a known problem? Is there an issue with this radio stack (1.0.9) on T-Mobile?

the i-mate rom have wrong settings for t-mobile UK in MMS and data.
You need to set them up manually.
Best way to do it is read the manual on t-mobile site.. it has a step by step guide.
I did that and it worked..

the settings you might have found using google search on 3rd party sites don't work, I tried that already

O2 XDA Orbit UK with Voda SIM - GPRS Problem

Hi All,
Am sure there are many threads - did a search but came up with nothing like mine. O2 Branded XDA Orbit with Vodafone SIM.
Upgraded from Default ROM to WM6 Bepe version - everything seems fine except my GPRS Connection.
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
Rom 3.4.207.1 WWE
4/18/07
Radio 2.49.90
Protocol 4.1.13.25
Model ARTE200
I have tried connecting to GPRS using my VODA SIM - which I know for a fact IS enabled for it as I was using it on my XDA-IIs - Now I just cannot connect to the GPRS to access my gmail or anything whatsoever.
I entered all the details for Voda-GPRS manually and also from CAB from this site and still cannot connect - it starts to connect and says the "connection was disconected" check settings...!!!
I am at my wits end on what the problem is !
Any ideas?
Dev

A couple of months ago I had an HTC Beta of WW6 and had to wipe it as it would not connect, same as you. Afterwards, I found out that WW6 install resets varions Connections settings incorrectly (part of beta).
Go to Settings / GPRS settings and make sure you have CHAP selected
My install had PAP selected.

Sounds to me like the rom you have used has a feature/setting that disconnects GPRS connections for whatever reason - possibly to stop programs from auto connecting with GPRS.
Have you checked with the creator of the ROM to see if anything like this was implemented in to it? It may be fixable with a registry tweak or setting.

Mine worked both Bepe and B&B V2 ok.
GPRS:
1. Click on Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections
2. Under the heading 'My Work Network', click on 'Add a new modem
connection'
3. The settings you require are:
4. Name = Vodafone MMS
5. Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
6. Click 'Next'
7. Access Point Name = wap.vodafone.co.uk
8. Click 'Next'
9. Username = wap
10. Password = wap
11. (leave the Domain field blank)
12. Click 'Finish'

Thanks Guys - Worked fine - Seems I was giving the APN wrong...
Well finally atleast it's working now...
Now only to get the Blackberry connect to work and I'm on cloud nine !!!

Hi I was trying to set my dad up with my old wizard.
He's on vodaphone and I've been able to get the GPRS working using the above settings (I also had to add a proxy server of 212.183.137 - type - HTTP port 8799) but IE is now browsing the internet.
However when I try to connect to a imap mail account it just says connecting, then says failed to connect, check settings.
Does anyone with a vodafone account know if you're able to connect to a personal mail server?
Are there any more specific proxy settings?
(start -> settings -> connections -> manage exsiting connections -> proxy settings ->advanced)
Or any advice from someone who's been able to get this working.
Cheers
Matt

All Carrier UK Settings
I downloaded this from the HTC Site - It has the settings for all carriers...Maybe this will help.

Thanks tried this, but it has an APN of internet and these settings always give me the
'answering modem has disconnected error'

I used to get the sae error and then I called up Vodafone and told them. They reset the SIM from their side and things started working fine.

OK thanks for that. I'll just hand it over to my dad with GPRS working and see if he can get his sim card reset.
Cheers

Accidentally deleted APN settings and can't connect to Data

Was toying with random toggle widgets and 3g data stopped working. I accidentally hit reset to default in the hidden APN settings and it just deleted everything?
Can anyone help me with APN settings or a simple solution? Thanks mucho.

Did you try updating your profile by going to settings -> about phones ->system updates ->update profile ?
If that doesn't work do you know specifically what settings you need? For example, do you need dsa server, mmsc, etc? I might be able to tell you the settings I have.

Updating profile doesn't work, it just gives an error. Funny enough, my 4g works fine.
Need a whole giant list of things though I was hoping their would be an easier way
Name
APN
Proxy
Port
user name
Password
Server
MMSC
MMS proxy
MMS port
MCC
MNC
Authentication type
APN type

Go back to DI18 via Odin, update Profile + PRL, then odin back to DK28, then reflash whatever ROM you were using.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing Overstew... I'm on syndicate, so I don't have those options above. I tried looking elsewhere but couldn't find anything either regarding those"default" settings.

if you know your msl try doing a data restore, ##3282#, it should restore it back to defaults, but your device might not go through the ota programing

Does anyone know if there is a way to back up those pesky hidden settings just in case something bad happen to your phone?

Has anyone successfully done this?
Was going to give it a try, does anyone have the direct market links for the necessary apps--specifically apnbr and autostart?
PS Think these are the others:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.japps.apnbr
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

Yes, I have tried it on two phones, I can post video link too, and you can download them from market too

Links to apnbr and autostart, please?

its in the mmsfix.zip link

mms does not work and web way slower now
followed everything down to the whole page step by step and still no mms and web seem to be way slower now and also youtube do not work anymore. i tried the youtube fix and it still didnt work.
ok so when i tried to send a pic message its just stuck in "sending".

Are you sure you wifi is off, and the db files show your phone settings.

Please click thanks if this helps, install the sqlite editor from the mms_fix zip, and then using rootexplorer, check the telephony.db shows your settings.

Settings???...all I did was set checked all the box on permission for telephony.db and I use sqlite to go into that file and clicked on the second option and a whole list of carriers popped up and it looked like a Excel database file with metropcs on the very first main top of the page and i went and change only the username and password (which is my metro pcs msl).

I had that problem with a couple of phones...did you wrote the metro prl in the phone? If so then try manually programming (##yourmsl#)the phone after that then edit the mdn and msid. Just put your number instead and for the msid you need to get that from your old phone through the same process or in the "about phone" section.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

I have tried all the steps a couple of times and still getting the FC error on startup and when I try to go into the messaging app??

Delete all the database files and the mms app, make sure you use 2004 prl, it will give you better internet (yes 1x works better than 3g).

Try the new updated solution, different rom and it work guaranteed

thanks for the guide. but its ##3282# for that menu.

oh sorry, i dont know why i wrote that.

Do you have working mms, because other people are having problems

Do we have to use that ROM in the OP, or does any ROM work if it is flashed to Metro?
It'll suck to give up Cyanogenmod

try changing the apn settings, if it doesn't work then try changing mms app. use 2004 prl

!!!WORKS!!!
Hey it works now...i just came back to this thread to see if theres any updates or progress to make pic messaging work and it has finally work for me.
P.s. im using 3027 prl but ill give 2004 a try.

Easy Tether fix working (not a magisk mod)

this is a very easy way to mod any apn in your phone.i modded apn on OnePlus 7pro this is easier . All you need is a database editor i used sqlite editor. click apps on top tab (ive included pictures) find phone and message storage (com.android.providers.telephony). then click telephony.db then select carriers. then all apns will be displayed find your carrier mines 310260(T-Mobile) put a 1 on user_visable.done. on the tethering apn also put -1 on authtype and go to your settings look at apn. if you make user_editable=1 it wont work right well didnt on 7pro it needs to be like mms apn so when plugged in it works i changed mtu but its up to you guys on what needs to be its easy. im trying to find other ways to mod the new userspace and init that boots first hope this helps everyone if anyone needs help just ask

Can you provide more info please?? Can you take a screenshot of each of your APNs?
Thank you!

apn is in database when you open you'll see the apn for your carrier I'm on 12 now still works
