[Q] Can't send or recieve texts!! APN?? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hey guys this is my first post. I flashed liquid smooth 2.5 and i started looking around through my settings and came across APN. I think I changed something that wasn't supposed to and now I can't send or receive texts, although I do still have a stable internet connection. Anybody know how to fix this?? Thanks!

If the reset doesn't work you can get the apn settings online and just re add the APN for your carrier.

[Q] Sending MMS Under Froyo FRX06, Tmobile

I know there's a ton of messages on MMS, but I've tried searching and have been unable to find a fix for this. I've got an unlocked TP2 from AT&T running on Tmobile, booting Froyo off of my SDcard. I've got an old Suncom sim card with a grandfathered in 2g data plan, it's not the fastest but it's free and unlimited. I've gotten data & mms to work with this sim in winmo, iphones, and every other phone I've tried, but this is my first experience with android and its giving me a lot of problem.
My APN Settings:
Name: Suncom Net
APN: mobileinternet
MCC: 310
MNC: 490 (suncom's old mnc)
APN Type: default,supl
the rest blank
Name: Suncom WAP
same as above but APN Type is blank
(got mms receiving & data working with this in there so I've left it)
Name: Suncom MMS
APN: wap.voicestream.com
Proxy: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Server: wap.voicestream.com
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS proxy: 216.155.165.50
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 390
MNC: 490
APN type: mms
I've got data working. I can receive mms perfectly, as long as wifi is disabled. But I cannot get it to work to send an mms. Took me forever to get the receiving mms working and that just turned out to be the naming of the APNs (which I thought was weird) but I feel like I'm missing something else small to get this working.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Forgot to mention I'm not getting an error message, it just hangs. Wifi is disabled. And the edge icon comes up and sends and receives data for a short period of time before it seems like it gives up.
If you are connected to T-mobile's network you should try t-mobile's network settings....
These settings work for me with xdandroid on t-mobile....

Looks like your setting are almost the same except for the MMSC.
IIRC, I couldn't send MMS until setting my MMSC to the address I posted.
Nope not the solution for me. If I use epc.tmobile.com as my apn I don't think I'm getting any connection out, probably due to my older sim I'm thinking, just from watching the upload/download icon, very little activity. Don't even get a notification for a failed download of mms picture with it.
Trying that MMSC with wap.voicestream.com as my apn I'm at least getting a connection out, a lot of upload/download activity, and getting a download failed notification trying to download an mms.
The only thing I think I haven't tried is changing the mms user agent, but I'm receiving pictures at 128kb, much bigger than what I would think an unrecognized user agent would receive. But so far most of the mms setup for android has been different than what I've seen before so maybe it'll work.
Also a newer Tmobile sim might fix it too, but I've had it working in other phones. It works flawlessly in windows mobile on the same phone. Again I'm thinking it's a combination of the sim card either the mms user agent of android or some other identification tmobile is getting from my phone showing up as android.
I think that with highlands new RIL, MMS works, you just have to enter the right APN settings.

GSM MMS worked in the original RIL too, I didn't change any of that. The only thing new regarding MMS in my RIL is for CDMA phones.

[Q] DATA not working after root on Rogers :( :(

Hi guys!
I rooted my phone by flashing the xperia play firmware from the uk with a tutorial and everything is working PERFECT except for I'm stuck on EDGE (ew..)
Can someone who is a lot smarter than me help me out?
Plus 25 internet karma for anyone who helps
You need to add in the Rogers APNs.
you need
to manually add the apn data as well as messaging
Google Rogers apn and enter then in the fields in network settings
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
The APN settings are;
Name: Rogers
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

This is not working for me. I did a reset and added this APN but still no Data.
My phone can make calls but no internet.
Then you're doing it wrong. Try it again. It works fine. Also, make sure you select the Rogers APN after you've input it. (Don't just input the data, save it and then not click on the APN.)
It is the only one I have.
I put exactly what is in the above post.
Edit: I deleted it and started over. This time I left out the Proxy IP and it worked.

[Q] unlocked T999 can't access AT&T network

I got a brand new T999, and had it unlock on ebay. It can make phone calls, but can't access AT&T network, and it can access wifi though.
I called AT&T a couple of times, and I think they had done everything they could, including input an AT&T APN manually, but still could not make it work.
Do you guys have any idea to fix it?
Thanks very much!

I tried everything: factor reset, check/uncheck data package, power on/off.
Do you think it may be caused by the unlock process? it was not through an unlock code, and somebody connected to the phone remotely and did some work on it.

The AT&T CSR told me to input the following (I am not allowed to input outside links on this forum yet) and it didn't work. But I will definitely try yours. I don't quite understand "Stock tmobile everything.. kernel/rom. ". Did you mean I need to replace tmobile ROM before I input APN? Thanks a lot!

What I meant to say was that my phone was stock with no modifications, just unlocked. Just punched in the settings and was good to go. I don't see why it wouldn't be the same for other roms though. Hope it works!

It won't allow you to send or the receiver just gets a blank message? (That was my problem using CM10 stable and the following nightlies) I never did resolve the issue before going back to stock.

Straight Talk APN Settings Help - Can't Receive MMS

Hey guys, been trying to solve this problem for over a week now.
I just got Straight Talk, with an ATT Sim Card.
I am using these APN settings from the ST website, which work fine for data and being able send MMS.
But I cannot receive MMS messages.

From reading over 30 threads on various websites, I have found some people doing variations of this with the following differences:
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS port: 80

Unfortunately none of these are able to let me receive mms messages.
I can get data and send mms messages on all of these however.
Thanks for the help.

What do you mean it was on Straight Talk's end? I kept saying that to them but they kept saying no. They also say there are no higher up management who they can transfer me to.
so stil....
Can't get my phone to receive MMS.
Every MMS message shows up as 32kb and it attempts to download, then just stops. It's impossible each mms message I receive is 32kb.
Straight talk just tells me its on my end and my phone isn't compatible.
Really annoying but I guess its just time to give up

I say "on their end" because after dealing with it for a month (calling Straight Talk and spending hours with different Reps, pouring over internet forums) I renewed my service for another 30 days and the issue was resolved...magically.
In regards to APN settings are you making sure to delete all existing APNs before starting a completely new one?

Yea I have done that many times. Also tried 5 different roms, the same result however.
You renewed using the same sim card or got a new one? maybe its the actual sim card number that is bugged on their end and I need to get a new one and a new number?
This is my first 30 days.
So I guess I'll renew once and hope for the best, who knows.

Believe me bro, I'm Soooo happy for you!!
I remember going through it and it was a Royal pain in the ass.
The reality is, when Straight Talk works property, it's the best out there (in my opinion anyway).

I cant get MMS. I had a month in reserve. After it was applied I still cannot get MMS. It was working on my full size sim card. I wish I had just cut it down to fit into my new phone instead of porting my number to a new small sim. They just say to me they cannot guarantee MMS. I told them i can Guarantee I will leave them if they don't fix it.
My mms is finally fixed. I can now receive MMS. I called them repeatedly for a month. Finally one guy finally offered to repush through the updates that they do when you change SIM cards. And that is what fixed it on my net 10 line.
On my other phone which was not able to send MMS on straight talk they offered me no such thing even after I asked for it. Of course they had me double check the APN settings. And lo and behold I had the setting inputted incorrectly. It was hard to catch this mistake because I had HTTPS instead of just HTTP I removed the s and now it is working fine.

I have a moto g with a Straight Talk at&t sim, and I had tried everything to get mms incoming working.
Finally I had them send me another sim card for a different problem.
The Original Sim card had a part number of TF64PSIMC4MB and was a micro sim.
The replacement was a TF64PSIMC4BMB and was a sim or microsim.
I switched over to the new sim, powered off the phone, and installed, and then started getting mms without changing any settings.
I'm using the tfdata settings from the straightalk site.
So it's a problem on their end, not on the phone most of the time.
I recommend asking for a replacement sim card if you can't get mms incoming working.
So, I found that if you remove port 80 from the APN...

... you get a better download speed. I was limited to less than 5Mbps on LTE with the port set to 80. I deleted that, and get a consistent speed of around 20-25Mbps. (Note: This applies to a SIM unlocked ATT hTC One X+, no idea if this works for a Galaxy Nexus)
Try adjusting your APN settings, first before this.
I had problems with my Nexus 5 not sending MMS messages and it turned out the pictures were just to big. I downloaded an app called Go SMS Pro (it's free) and it automatically re-sizes it, and it fixed the issue.
