Ion with Straight Talk

Has anyone got this phone (stock or otherwise) working on Straight Talk? I have activated my BYOP AT&T sim, I have 4g, speed test app shows its beating out my Verizon 3g, so that seems about right for HSPA+.
Here's the issue I can't send MMS's (It goes to Sending then to Queued for sending then many minutes later will timeout), and if I send a MMS to this phone, I get a SMS with a link to viewmymessage.com which consistently gives me a "504 Gateway Time-out - The web server is not responding" when trying to view it on the phones browser. It loads fine from any other device or pc. (Side question: Is that really how MMS is implemented on ST?). I've tried almost every APN setting I could find on Google and ST customer service was painfully unhelpful finally telling me to "Talk to Sony".
Besides the speed test and a few web pages, the 4g seems really slow and laggy, I get the feeling its having trouble resolving addresses. Google Play updates will sit for a good 45 seconds before the 0KB/xxKB comes up, and then after that it will chug along at what I imagine 1x speed is like. Acting on this DNS/resolving theory, I installed Opera and put in a proxy, I was then able to load up the viewmymessage site without problems... Any ideas?

Sorry, I can't help much but I've been using straight talk for 2 months now with no problems. Data is fine and I have been able to send and receive mms. I used the apn settings that came in the book with the SIM Card.

Attached is the apn setting I use for ST they seem to throttle their data. I recently cancelled my contract with att and with hspa + I got 10mb/s. Switched to red pocket and had the same speeds as post and prepaid att
$45/st for 2mb/s data or $55/red pocket for 10+ mb/s

As of right now my sister only makes me pay $50 for the data on her VZ family plan, grandfathered in with unlimited data (w/ good LTE coverage), so $55 is going in the wrong direction.
Anyway, my settings are exactly like yours pictured and still the same. Its either got to be ST's servers or a bad SIM. While browsing XDA I found out my Bionic can do GSM so I popped in my ST SIM and same deal, only difference was I had EDGE for data. I didn't check if that pic site worked, I'll save that for tomorrow, along with figuring out how to get my bionic back on CDMA :laugh:

I just bought an xperia ion as well and had MMS working for the first day with the settings in the book.
Since that point I constantly get a "Queued for sending" and then an error when trying to send. When I am receiving messages I get "Message not downloaded"
I feel like I have search and tested for hours various MMS settings for stratightalk including the 66.209.11.33, mms2.tracfone.com, and proxy.mvno.tracfone.com all on port 80 with http://mmsc.cingular.com as the MMSC number MCC 310 and MNC 410.
If anyone with an ion could help it would be appreciated. Again it was working for one day so I am not sure what went wrong.

My phone apparently ended up being provisioned wrong, most reps told me my phone was broke and to contact Sony, but I finally got a ST rep that went through their system and found whatever error was on their side that prevented me from sending. I got the "Message not downloaded" error a few times too, but he said it was likely due to poor service, I don't know how much I believed that, but I did get most pictures to come through. I ended up returning the phone soon after so I can't attest to how it turned out long term (I felt like the data connection was very high in latency and the signal strength fluctuated too much). Hope that helps.

I just reset the APN settings to default, added a new apn with your settings and it is still queuing the messages. Really strange. I have never had a problem with the MMS settings on any of my other smartphones on straight talk. Interesting. I am not sure what to try next. Calling straighttalk customer service tends to not resolve anything. lol
Thanks for your support!

Connected to wifi and now pictures are sending again no sweat. Afraid to disconnect to see if they fail again. lol

Having issues with my Ion too. No matter what settings I use. Submitted a support ticket off their facebook page. We shall see... Never had MMS issue on any other Android with ST

Got MMS working GREAT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931586

Ok people... After searching and searching and searching some more... I now have EVERYTHING working on the Ion with Straight Talk. The current ROM I am using is MIUI, however, this should be the same clean across the board...
If I do not mention a specific setting here for the APN, then assume nothing, and leave it blank. Seriously. These settings for the most part are close to what everyone else is saying, but I was still getting a proxy conflict, causing Data/Web to drop out periodically. Until now. Now EVERYTHING works flawlessly...Data/Web/Calls/MMS, ETC.
So, here we go... We will be making 2 APN's CaSe sensiTivE.
APN 1
Name = Straight Talk
APN = att.mvno
Proxy = proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
Port = 80
MMS Port = 80
MCC = 310
MNC = 410
APN Type = default,supl
If you have the option for APN protocol, set it to IPv4
NOTE: Yes, there are two port listings in this APN, that is not a mistake
APN 2
Name = MMS
APN = att.mvno
MMSC = http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Port = 80
MCC = 310
MNC = 410
APN type = mms
Again...If you have the option for APN protocol, set it to IPv4
Now select the first APN as your primary, and you are good to go. (If this was done correctly, you should not be able to select the MMS APN at all)
Please remember what I said...If you do not see it listed for a setting, DO NOT change it.

If I use this ATT compatible micro sim card, does it matter if the phone is locked or unlocked ?
(will it work properly on Straight talk is it's locked)
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Straight-Talk-Post-Paid-Micro-SIM-AT-T-Bring-Your-Own-Phone-Card/21550826
Can I watch a couple of Netflix movies every day, or will they terminate my service ? ( I know this question has been asked before, but I always get different answers, even from Straight talk customer support)

Please keep in mind that my reply is based on my own experience with the company so far...
If you abuse the data, they "could" throttle you or terminate it until your next "refill" ... However, I have not had that issue. I have far exceded 3GB data this month, and no throttling of any kind. NO text or calls from them either.
My phone is rooted, but NOT Sim unlocked, nor bootloader unlcoked. And it works just fine.
You WILL lose LTE, but honestly, for what I was paying -vs- what I'm paying now... I feel it was a fair trade

So the straight talk AT&T micro sim will activate this phone regardless if it's locked or unlocked ?
Does unlocking the Ion enable lte or is it just a given that straight talk doesn't provide lte access ?

Yes, you can use the ATT microsim from StraightTalk without unlocking the phone. And StraightTalk just doesn't offer LTE...Yet... We will see what the future holds

Wanted to see if anyone has found the best APN settings for the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 on Straight Talk T-Mobile. Getting MMS has been a problem for me. Thanks.

also, I just ported my number from Straight Talk ATT to Straight Talk TMobile and my account still says "port in progess"....so Im wondering if that might have something to do with it....internet works fine...just not mms.

From my experience MMS won't work if you are on wifi.

Thank You,
Ill play around with that. I have heard sometimes when you port from ATT straight talk to Tmobile Straight talk some of the features take a while to kick in so im wondering if that might have something to do with it also. Did you just use the same settings Straight talk provided?

Att and Tmobile have different APN settings. They should have provided you one with your Tmobile sim card. If not then you can easily Google it.

try this: it works for me
APN Name. any
APN. wap.tracfone
proxy. blank
port. 8080
mmsc. http://mms.tracfone.com
mms proxy. blank
mms port. 8080
hope this works for u as well

Thank You Very MUCH!!! It's just good to know if/when someone finds "better" settings for the APN other thank the ones that were provided by Straight Talk...
Again,
Thanks Much.

That's basically the same settings on Tmobile straight Talk that they give you. Except for apn I put in straight talk and everything works just fine for me. I hope it works for you either way.

OH i definitly tried those settings I just encountered a problem with MMS when those reccomended settings were inputed....but I think part of the problem was the fact that I had just ported my number from Straight Talk ATT to Straight Talk TMobile. I thinik the MMS features get delayed a bit during this proces.....might be good to konw or keep in mind if anyone is trying to port Straight talk ATT to Straight Talk Tmobile or vice versa..

Make sure there are no spaces sometimes it puts in a space automatically after the commas. The spaces prevent sending and receiving pictures

What does putting APN types default,supl,mms do? Also, Straight Talk card says to leave MMS port blank. Is it supposed to be 8080 or blank?

i wish someone would figure this out and just write a step by step guide. i have tried evry apn in the book or on the web and once i go back to m ST APN there is no signal except call, text. cant delete t mobs pan but if i highlight it i automatically get a 4g icon. ive spent 20 days with the non english speaking rep that i cant understand and still nothing. i now have a useless marble white note 2 home phone
yea i know i need to change my sig lol

Finally it works!
I know this is an old thread, but the settings suggestion from Geet dated 11-16-2012 definitely worked for me on my unlocked STAR N9500 Android phone with the Straight Talk SIM card installed!
Also, putting in the APN types as: default,supl,mms helped too. BE SURE there's no spaces, just commas separating the definers.
Thank You... Thank You! :good:
I was able to delete the T-Mobile APN by going into all field which showed info and making them blank, now when I tried to exit I was shown a message stating: "Can't leave Name Field Blank". So I just pressed the "HOME" button then did a restart and only the Straight Talk APN now shows.
Again... Thanks!

Yes, I bought the STBYOP pack for CMDA phones. No luck with instructions from the box.
Went to the website, entered cell IMEI and whatever else it asked for. Response = Your phone is not supported. #BullS!#T GN2 = Unlocked World phone.
Went back to the kit, found T-Moble sim, trimmed/cutoff the excess plastic. Easy enough with Swiss Army knife.
Replaced VZW sim with T-Mobile sim. Reboot. Waited a little for network activation and synch.
!!Had to get around my Avast Anti-Theft software. Unlock / Found the phone then Trust new sim.
!!Googled how to get rid of "Non Verizon Sim found" icon in notification area.
BAM! Up-n-running. No thanks to STBYOP customer support. Don't even think to get help from them. They will not think out-the-box to help you get right.
Big Up!!!

there is an app in the market that tells you what apn settings should be for each carrier. Also check to see if straight talk has their own app. Simple is affileated with them and it has its own app that basically installs the right apn settings for you.

Once you have reached your phone's APN (Access Point Name) settings, create a new APN with the following values.
APN Name: Straight Talk
APN: tfdata
Port: 80
MMSC:http://mms-tf.net
MLSProxy:mms3.tracfone.com
MMS Port: 80
Delete the current APN from your phone.Reboot your phone.

at&t, I dont get why people don't post that theyre different -_-

The above setting posted by triniman06 do work exceedingly well. Thank you very much sir! I am running an unlocked GSM phone with a T-mobile SIM card and Sraight Talk monthly plan. One thing I would like to add is that it takes time for the phone to reboot in th o the new APN settings. So, after rebooting your device, turn off wi+fi, turn on your mobile data, and give the new APN setting a good 5 minutes to work. After letting the new APN settings "sink into" my phone, my mobile data service (which is 4G) seems to run about as fast as my Wi-Fi service. ?

FIXED! - No LTE

Hey guys. I'm kinda stuck here. I am getting no LTE service on my phone at all. Of course those idiots at straight talk keep saying im provisioned for it but nope, not getting it. I tried everything I can think of from factory resetting to apn settings and nothing. When I go into my network it bounces between HSAP and HSPAP but no LTE. I live in an LTE service area and was getting LTE up to about a week ago but then suddenly it was gone. Any ideas as to what I can do?

Can ask what are your APN settings?

I don't understand what's goin on. It just doesn't work anymore for some reason. And ST troubleshooting is non existent. All they tell you is to put in those apn settings and it should work. Well it isn't dumbasses!....lol

Also port :80 . I have straight talk too. Your apn looks right

My wife has the Optimus g and her LTE is working just fine. WITH the same APN settings! The last thing I remember doing was going through the hidden service menu but I didn't change anything in there. There is nothing you can change in there to make your LTE stop working. I know with some phones you can but not with the OGP.

Ok guys. I got the issue resolved. I used this method here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351041
The only issue I had was for some reason I couldn't manually edit the build.prop. I had to install JRummies Rom Toolbox Lite and that did the trick.It's so nice to have my LTE back!

Thanks for the link. Always liked to manually set to 2g or 4g when lte was weak. One reason I always installed custom roms and didn't stick to stock.

Personally I don't worry too much about it. Being on stock with this phone gets great battery life. So no need to turn off the LTE to conserve battery.

[Q] Help with APN settings

I want to start off by saying sorry for posting with a new account, I know that is frowned upon on forums, but I need help with a phone that isn't even mine and I've been trying to figure this out for a week now. I've searched everywhere and I figured it's time to ask the experts. Here's the story.
So my girlfriend got a Samsung Galaxy S3 (previously on T-mobile, model number T999) used and got a Straight Talk plan. I put in an APN for Straight Talk and everything was hunky dory. She didn't like the battery life so I rooted the phone and put cyanogen mod 11 on it (which is really friggin cool, so happy I did that) but it didn't save the APN settings. This is where I'm a dumbass. I didn't write down the settings and I didn't back up the phone (she doesn't have anything on the phone worth restoring, or so I thought, those precious APN settings were there) so now I'm trying to find the new APN settings. Everyone has a different set that worked for them, I can't get any of them to work. I know that the MCC is 310, but I don't know if the MNC is 410, or 260 (I believe it is 260 because that is a T-mobile MNC) if you don't have the proper numbers then it won't even save the APN settings. I have yet to get any settings to actually save which is very frustrating. Any suggestions?

I thought Straight Talk was an AT&T mvno.

I believe it is both. They use towers from Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. I think that whatever your phone was on originally is the set of towers that it uses. I've seen APN settings with 410 and 260. IIRC 260 was the MNC that worked before.

There are posts all over xda that have apn settings. Best I can say is to search them out and try them.
It could be a cm issue though. They updated their radio files to work with kk modems and its caused lots of problems for people who have older ones.

[Q] mms working with Cricket?

I've followed most of this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/help/guide-fire-phone-fireos-google-apps-t3206603) along with updating to 4.6.6, to set up my fire phone, and almost everything is working. I've activated the phone with a Cricket sim, and I can get internet and sms fine. I still can't get mms to send or receive. I've tried several different APN settings from the Cricket website and others. I've tried using the stock messaging app as well as handcent.
Is anyone else using Cricket with their fire phone and able to send/rec mms? If so, what are your APN settings?

My wife's fire phone is working with Cricket, including MMS. I think Cricket takes up to 24 hours to re-reoute SMS/MMS correctly. Maybe give it a day and see if it fixes itself.

So it does work. That's good news. Turns out my wife's BLU phone doesn't work either. It's been over a week since she switched.

I would have to wait until tonight to check her phone, but my Nexus 5 is working with those APN settings.

Well, it turns out the fire phone is set to use the AT&T APN. The Cricket APN is there on the phone, but the AT&T one is selected. And everything is working fine on her phone.

Also, I neglected to mention that I use Google Voice, so all my SMS/MMS gets routed as data. Which is why I thought the Cricket APN worked for my Nexus 5.

Well, it turns out the fire phone is set to use the AT&T APN. The Cricket APN is there on the phone, but the AT&T one is selected. And everything is working fine on her phone.

Yeah, thanks. I've tried all the settings on that thread. No joy. Maybe it's something wrong with my account since all four phones have the same problem

After u create APN are you setting the apn, I believe u click save and select, I missed that the first time around

Thank you more times than I could ever say! I have a carrier unlocked LG H830 (G5), and have spent more hours than I'd like to admit trying to get outgoing MMS to work on Cricket Wireless. You name it, I've tried it. I would never EVER have thought to change the Network Mode. That fixed it. Granted, instead of showing "LTE", it's now showing 4G (3.5G), and my data speed down is about 5MB, but Cricket throttles the down speeds anyway. And, at home on Wifi, it doesn't matter anyway. So again, thank you!
For the purposes of future Google searchers:
For outgoing MMS to work on a carrier unlocked LG H830 (LG G5), the Network Mode must be set to GSM/WCDMA.
Regards,
Mark
