Updating CM9 remove manually added APN setting? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I did a quick search but it didn't show anything, so sorry if my search fu was weak.
If I flash the latest CM9 daily onto my phone will it remove a manually added APN? I had to manually add my Rogers LTE apn today to get it to work correctly, and I want to know if I should write down the settings before doing my next update.
Thanks

ICS APN manager

Hello i would like to ask a fast question, how would i be able to edit the APN on a ICS rom for htc evo 4g cause i have metropcs and apn manager, or apn backup restore wont work, any help that would helpp me fix this will recieve a gift via paypal
ICS blocked 3rd party apps from writing the apn so your best bet would be to use GOSMS Pro and change the mms settings under advanced in the menu options since it doesn't write to the apn it just uses the apn thru the SMS app leaving the apn partition intact
We are legion, for we are many
oh ima give it a try if it works ill pm you
That's the only thing I can think of until an ics with epst is available and you can use the ## codes to access the apn partition I'm not sure why Google blocked apps from accessing the apn unless they are trying to prevent carrier flashing but idk why they would care since they aren't the phone provider

thats exactly what im saying like seriously why would they even care they just sell the phones. but thanks man im going to have to wait.
I found another fix but it will require a PC the rom zip, 7zip, Apk manager and notepad++ you will have to edit the apn recompile the apk push it back to the romzip with 7zip and the flash the modified rom, or flash it overtop of itself if you don't want to have to reset all of your apps and settings etc

You can use HiApn global from the market to write apn's
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
i got HIAPN working ill let u know if all goes good
If hiapn doesn't work if u send me your rom and the settings you need I can modify the rom for you to flash overitself and get your settings to stick it shouldn't take me more than an hr to decompile mod and recompile the apk you need

APN Settings ICS

Has anyone been able to edit their APN settings successfully on ICS? I used the widget and edited the default Sprint APN and changed it to what my APN backup xml had for Boost Mobile but my MMS isn't working. :/ Tried rebooting my phone and sending another and it says it fails to send and pops up a message saying "Service not activated" or something to that effect. Regular SMS and phone calls work. Help??
Also noticed my voicemail isn't working either. I guess I need to go back to GB ROM, lol.
ICS blocked the ability for 3rd party apps to edit APN so in order to do it you have to manually edit them in the ROM zip prior to flashing at least that's the only way I've been able to figure out so far since there's no epst for ics yet

Can you ecxplain how???
You will have to decompile an apk nod it and recompile it and replace it in the rom zip ill have to look at the exact Apks in a lil bit Im on sprint so I haven't had tto do it another option is to use gosmspro it will allow u to change apn without changing it in the rom so it bypasses the stock settings which is alot easier for ppl who aren't familiar with reading and editing code

U R Awesome!!!

I tried the gosmspro but it has some different firm of settings. All I Ned to do Ia add a 10 digit MdN number and Google.com...
But in the gosmspro app there are very different setting options.
I had backed up my apn settings from the apn backup and restore setting all I want to know is if I can use the generated XML file to get the
einga in the from file itself and if yes then how can one go forward doing that???
I found on the market "apn settings shortcut" links you right to the systems apn menu its not a 3rd party app or a widget so try that and let me know if it works please

Sorry man its just that I had tried many different solutions and yet couldn't get my 3g connection back so decided to just jump to the Clean GB Rom.
But the MIUI Beta v4 rom seems promising and I will be updating soon. Will let you know how things work out.

Hello, welcome to a great site with loads of info on our model, plus 100's of other android models!
1. Get an APN app from the google playstore, such as Tweakker or Offline Apn, use it to get access to the APN menu then manually add the APN settings you need.
2. You can make changes in that ##DATA# menu, you just need to get your MSL #, when you hit edit, a box pops up, enter the MSL and it will allow you to edit these fields, I only changed 2 fields in that menu MMSC and Multimedia to my carrier.
Hope this helps you out, best of luck!

Thansk for the quick response and welcoming me.
i had installed tweakker but there is not pakistani networks available in that app and about offline APN can you tell me the exact name of the app please.
Thanks
no problem, cheers..... it is called Offline SIM APN Database, use the free version and hit the "search APN settings for this SIM" button, then pick a carrier (any will really work, just to get the menu) , then hit the "Go to Android APN Settings" button there a menu will pop up and you can add a new apn, enter your needed APN settings.

Thanks i have tried this app and it's not saving the apn setting saying problem in creating apn setting
and also tried APN Manager pro.. not working anyone. i i have i think there is not any option are working
it's saying " you are using Ice Cream Sandwich. change is this version no longer allow for the direct writing of APN settings. the setting found will need to be manual copy and pasted. click go to android apn settings. and create a new apn entry then press back button on your device and press the copy button next to the value on the screen. return to the apn entry and paste each value into the new apn one by one" .when i am going there nothing works there is not any option of creating new APN or anything.
find YOUR apn settings for YOUR carrier, open the APN settings menu, add NEW APN, fill out required fields, then you hit the menu button on your phone and choose SAVE APN, it will save and you will have a radio button next to the newly created APN!

when you are in the android APN settings menu, you have to hit the phones menu button, the 3 lines, it will say add new apn

I would not upgrade to kk 4.4.2 to fix this issue, I personally would look into changing radios, you might also try doing the SIM unlock tutorial look for the part about making APNs stick.
Are you sure you have root permissions? confirm with root checker, root with ioroot if not

No mms

After update I can't send/recieve mms on mobile network only on wifi calling and I can no longer edit my apn. I can create a new one but the existing apn will not edit. I press the selection and nothing happens. Anyone else have this issue?

Can u also post a screenshot of your 'Tethering & Networks' and your 'Mobile Networks' settings please? I'm curious to see exactly what's going on in that section to be causing this for you.
Well I reflashed version M and I can now send/recieve mms, but I still cannot edit the apn. I can create a new one, but cannot edit existing apn. Like for instance if I want to change the name from T-Mobile LTE to something else I can't same with all apn settings. I press to edit but it does nothing.

TMOBILE APN is locked down. Just make a new one edit how you like and select it and you good
BAD ASS G3
It wasn't locked down on C because I was using @autoprime tethering mod. I wonder if they're trying to block tethering, but you can create a new apn with the exact settings and switch protocol from there so I don't know.
*Edit*
sorry I misread your post disregard
*Edit 2*
But I will say if you replace the apn xml with autos apn or the apn in Add 3g/ipv4 support + more you will be able to edit default again. Just replace it with a root explorer and reboot. you might also need to wipe dalvik

Yeah I just realized part of his mod made for the ability to edit default. I was able to edit my default apn on my first G2 which confused me a bit but it was an international model.

Unable to get LTE Data - Modified Stock ROM

Hello, I am running a Sprint Note 4 with the following ROM -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-stock-pg1-bloated-deodexed-t3447044
It is, as the name says, a DeOdexed PG1 version of Marshmallow.
I activated this device today with Sprint. After doing so, I was able to do calling and texting immediately, but I am unable to access LTE mobile data. If I go to my data settings and switch the setting to "CDMA", I am able to obtain 3G. But if I switch it to Automatic or LTE/CDMA -- I get no data whatsoever (The bars icon shows an ! in the bottom right).
I have no idea what could be causing this and could use some assistance.
check your apn settings are correct.
I can't modify my APN settings. When I try to do so, they immediately revert to the stock APN settings. This includes trying to add new ones--they just disappear.
What would cause this?
So I'm fairly certain the issue is related to the inability to update my APN settings. What would I do to remedy this? I can't modify the APN settings. When I try to, the settings don't stick.
