Upgraded my Galaxy s2 to 4.0.3 Now I can't delete the t-mobile APN

Hey guys I use simple mobile and everything was working fine until I updated the firmware to 4.0.3 with KIES
Now for some reason I can't delete the T-Mobile default APN
I can't delete, or EDIT the t-mobile APN, even tried resetting APN's to default
I tried downloading APN BACKUP AND RESTORE but it says it won't work for android 4+
It keeps switching back to t-mobile APN! Please help me!
Thank's

Someone please help me I've been looking for a solution for like 6 hours now. I can't delete this damn T-Mobile Access Point Name
When I click MENU all it shows is DISCARD, it doesn't show DELETE APN
When I edit the APN that I added for SIMPLE Mobile, I can 'DELETE APN' on that one.. I can't even edit the t-mobile one
Please help, thank's!

Sorry to be unclear.. I did make a new apn, but the problem is, my phone keeps switching to the T-Mobile APN randomly...
So now I have TWO apn's.. One Simple Mobile, and one T-Mobile.. I need to delete the T-Mobile one but it won't let me.

I choose the Simple Mobile one and I have no problem but yes you are right it wont delete but its not a big deal. I just redid mine on Friday before switching to T-Mobile over the wknd... Fyi - I got to 2 gigs and they shut me down
So you have a new Simple apn and you choose it and then rebooted and on reboot it changes back to T-Mobile? Correct?

Yes. I have a T-Mobile APN on my phone just sitting there looking disabled and I can't delete it,,,
I don't think that's normal because on my Galaxy S 4G* I could delete the T-Mobile APN

My friend its ok if you load up CM9 it puts in extra APN's for you so its not a big deal to have it there or change it. Actually no real need to look at it after you make the change. I told you I tried to delete mine after upgrading and it did not allow me to so I just added a new one. I am not sure why just adding a new one and using that is bothering you or am I missing something?

I'm not sure if you are still having this problem or not, but I understand the problem you are having and I just found a fix last night.
If you download APN Global, it will let you delete the T-Mobile APN.
I'm pretty sure this has now fixed that hateful issue!
To everyone else that didn't understand the problem:
the t-mobile apn was not editiable, not deletable, and there was no option to make Simple apn the default
randomly and at times VERY OFTEN, the apn would switch back to t-mobile which would make internet unusable and you wouldn't find out until you tried to use it. Then you would have to go through the settings and switch the apn back. This might happen 10 times in a few minutes or 10 times in an hour or two.

To people who use Straight Talk

Guys,
My girlfriend has an S3 i747 AT&T model that she uses with Straight Talk. Shes been having nothing but trouble with it. We've checked the APN settings multiple times and everything seems okay. When the phone is booted it will connect to data and you can use it no problem. But after the phone sleeps and you try to use data again it just wont work right. Like facebook will load but it wont download images. Google play will work but only download like 300 kb and stop. This isn't normal and it's not the phone because she was using it fine this whole time on AT&T and it was great.
Can somebody please post settings or a different modem we can try to get her up and running?

Every phones different. I had a phone that sometimes wanted one APN then I'd have to use a different one. Straight Talk is cheap but its ****. Check this thread and play with APNs. (They could be throttling you too. They throttled me and didn't know and couldn't tell me why)

Thanks for the link I'll check it out. I don't think they are throttling her because if you reboot it goes back to good speeds.

Oh that's odd. Play with the settings, one should work

I use the included apn setings and never have a problem

So this sounds like a good alternative to att. Att is a scam. How do you guys like it? How are the data speeds? I'm in the so cal region is there anyone using it there?

I've used the same APN for over a year, and recently when I refilled, I lost data!! Called customer service, and they gave me a new APN and data came back. Apparently they have a new contract with at&t, and that might have had something to do with it... I would try different apns first, but it almost sounds like she is throttled!! Not supposed to go over 100 mb/day, or 2gb/ month!

Jellybread & cricket

someone could copy and paste their apn text in this thread that has Jellybread rom running on their EVO 4g on cricket or metropcs. I dont get how internet could work but not mms. Ive tried all sorts of apns from all sorts of cricket phones and this is the ONLY thing stopping this from being the absolute best mod ive found! so fast and stable!

Thank you so much! To make things even more confusing when I was using cyanogenmod 10 rom mms was working perfectly, however I found the rom to be buggy, VERY SLOW and all around confusing. So I figured if I used the apn-conf.xml from that and put it in jellybreads apn-conf.xml (despite cgm's being sprit) ot should work! No dice. Ill give yours a shot n let you know how it goes. Thanks again.

If that APN is what got you hot and bothered, lol, be certain to link back to it in other threads for other users to be able to configure their setup as well. I don't even use my Evo for anything more than a music player, so I could very well not be capable of much more here.

well that apn work specifically for jellybread. Ive been searching for as i said 3 days for a simple custom rom that was stable and fast and fully functional (Minus 4g :,-() . all of them seemed to have major flaws, slow and bloated, threw my phone in a loop, far too many options confusing me.
but for wimax I'm convinced that since I have 4g included in my plan for cricket if i could figure out the right settings in qpst I could get on 4g too. Id probably get a heart attack though from excitement. Ive seen youtube videos for it but i could only hope. ill try posting a new thread for that though.
bless you!

The other cricket users of JellyBread and Kendallc123 herself may be as ecstatic as you if you can get 4g working with cricket, but you should link to this in the JellyBread thread so that the cricket users there see it. Also I'd thank user/dev Wambo_Bomb, since he is the one who left me that APN when he gave me his old Evo.

i spoke too soon. my phone said the message was sent, which before it wasn't even doing that but they aren't getting the pictures on the receiving phone. back to trying out different roms :,-(

though i despise having 2 different numbers for messaging and despise having a app for text and another for mms i suppose i can just use my text free account from pinger for images and my phone for text. obnoxious but it is a work around i suppose.

Cricket 4g will never work on the og. The reason is simple cricket 4g is lte while the og is wimax. Now as far as mms that will work but you have to make changes to the apn. I have attached one that I know works but you will have to edit the username in the apn. Unlike most carriers each cricket user has a unique user name. It is your phone number here is an example ( [email protected]). Easiest way way to do this is get apn backup and restore from playstore. Backup your current apn and then copy this one into the apnbackup folder that was created and edit the username. Turn on airplane mode delete apn then restore the cricket_sprint.XML file. Reboot phone and turn off airplane mode.
As long as your settings are correct in qpst then this will get your mms working. If you need further help feel free to pm me.

thank you for the link ill give it a shot. as i said before I've tried MANY apn settings so i do know how to do it. every apn ive tried for cricket or metropcs though has had different numbers in the other lines. (NOT the MDN line, i know you have to put your number in the mdn line) My settings in qpst have to be correct or internet wouldn't be working as well, because as I said the cryogenmod 10 rom was the only rom that mms, (and everything eles worked) for even though the apn was set to sprit. (makes no sense to me but it worked) But the rom was pretty much unusable on my phone with how much battery it drained, (2 and a half hours and the batter was gone) how slow it was, (cpu usage was constantly at 998mhz) and the rom was all around confusing for someone SOMEWHAT new to this stuff with too many options i didn't understand.
I think its something other than apn settings because the cryogenmod rom worked for mms and internet though the apn was set to sprint. all other roms ive tried has had either sms not working and/or mms not working and/or phone not working and/or contact lists not working something for the basic phone functions causes force close errors with all other mods.

once again it didn't work. the pictures say sent but are not being recived by the person im sending them too. SMS that are too long and converted to MMS come arcoss as code to the person they are sent too. I dont understand why one rom with sprint apn settings would work but this one wont. is it possible for roms to change qpst settings? i cant tell anymore though as i cant enter diagnostic mode.

BTW i switched back to the stock htc sense rom.

no mobile data

i cant get mobile data to work after updating to cyanogenmod 10.2 or 10.1. i have tried several diff builds same problem every time. I can dial and and send texts just cant get mobile data to work. wifi works fine. can someone point me in the right direction.
i have tried messing with apn settings but dont really know what i am doing. do i need to flash new modem?.

Try flashing a different ROM and see if your data comes back. I just had this same issue with one of my S3 phones... no matter what ROM I flash I get no service. I am actually calling AT&T tonight for a warranty replacement.

Sounds like APN to me. Search your APN settings for whatever particular plan u have and make sure they are entered correctly.

Should be able to find them right on here, just search for your phone, your carrier, and whatever plan u have. I use straight talk, so I have to make a new APN everytime I flash a new ROM, its no big deal though, only takes a couple minutes...

I had a similar issue once. It turned out I had the ATT apn selected but not the ATT LTE one. Once I selected the lte one it worked (and it still worked when I was on 3g.)

[Q] Flashed custom ROM and now mobile data wont work (NET10)

I installed SHOstock3 ROM onto my I777 yesterday. After messing around with my phone, I found a few errors but the most pressing is no mobile data. My plan was through AT&T but now its through NET10. I entered in a new APN with NET10s settins (tfdata) but no dice. I have read on this forum that I might have to delete the 3 AT&T APNs that are listed but I cant delete them.
I triple checked my APN settings for NET10 but still no dice. Must I flash the modem?
Thanks.

do you have cell service at all

I had an APN setup that was close to that but I didnt have any proxies in. My OEM ROM didnt need them but I see that this custom ROM does. I need to do more testing but the quick test that I did showed 3G and H+. OEM ROM showed 4G all the time from what I can remember. Thank you!

I believe when sms is converted to mms, it then runs off the data line. I dunno what to tell this guy. If he says he checked his settings and they are okay then I dunno. Double check with net10, if not then just sick it up and move over to metro or redpocket, maybe another mvno.
He shouldn't get all prissy over forum rules. We're all dealt with it. Keeps the people asking for a hand out away.

I believe when sms is converted to mms, it then runs off the data line. I dunno what to tell this guy. If he says he checked his settings and they are okay then I dunno. Double check with net10, if not then just sick it up and move over to metro or redpocket, maybe another mvno.
He shouldn't get all prissy over forum rules. We're all dealt with it. Keeps the people asking for a hand out away.

Sounds easy to me, find the right MMS proxy. I looked at the link I gave him for possibles, no fricking clue which one he referencing as soft of working.
I saw four different ones.

So SMS works but not MMS ? With stock messaging app or third party from the ROM?

Stock messaging works (SMS) but if I try to send an MMS with the stock messaging program, it never goes through. I have never tried another program. I had hangout for a while but I got rid of it.

But web surfing works ???
You most likely need to find the right MMS proxy server and it's port. Most likely it's 80, I haven't seen one that's been 8080 in a while.

Is mms one if the things in the "apn type" field?

As soon as I get the privilege to post links, I will post what worked for me. The info I used is not in the OP of that thread, its towards the bottom of the page and was posted by someone other than the OP. The post has a lot of thanks for it was well.

What the hell try adding these...
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS Port: 80
And like mindmajick asked, is there anything in your APN TYPE? Most of the examples I see for NET10 say leave it as not set.

I set the MMS proxy as you said but still no dice. APN TYPE was MMS but is now blank. Still nothing.

When you flashed your custom ROM, you may have nuked your APN settings!
As the title says, I think your problem may be related to custom ROMs wiping out APN settings that may have come from the store (or put in by Net10 upon activation/initialization of the phone), and if that's the case, I think I can help you!
I've just gotten done activating (read: porting), configuring, flashing with custom ROMs, and setting up APN settings on 4 unlocked phones that we brought to Net10 (on AT&T's network, via the BYOP program, since these are unlocked GSM/WCDMA phones), I believe I can assist you here.
Rather than trying random combinations of APN settings to try and find one that works, if you call Net10 Customer Support (877-836-2368), all you have to do (once you tell them your phone number/SIM serial number) is ask for someone who can assist you in updating the APN settings for unlocked phones.
You'll be transfered to a different section of Net10's/Tracfone's Technical Support, and whoever picks up will likely tell you they can assist you once you repeat what it is you need help with. They'll tell you the usuals (make sure WiFi, Bluetooth, and Airplane Mode are off, and make sure Cellular Data is enabled, but not Cellular Roaming Data), and then they'll tell you to go down into your SIM/Mobile Network settings screen, and create a New APN. They'll read off the settings they should have, and they they will (or if they don't, you should ask them to "resend the switch and update the settings on their end" in those _exact_ terms, as they've cut the times for this from 3 hours to less than 30 minutes per phone for me).
Then they'll tell you to select the new APN settings, and reboot the phone (or turn it off and back on if your ROM doesn't have a reboot option); they'll have you attempt to open a browser and pull a page down (I highly suggest a mobile site of some sort, being that they're the lightest; it'll either work here or not, there is no "to what degree does it work"). If it doesn't work, they'll give you different settings (though it's not taken more than two APN setting tries for me, and that's mainly because of the area I live in), and then try the browser again. Once the browser is able to pull a mobile site, they'll ask you to try sending a picture message (again, I reccommend a small picture, as it either works or doesn't, so the size will only hold you up longer the bigger it is), even if it's just to yourself.
I've found that if you're simply respectful and paitent with them (as they sometimes have to spend 10 minutes putting various bits of data into other spots on their computers), they will be able to get it done for you within half an hour per phone.
I would highly reccommend that you don't mention your custom ROM however; so long as it doesn't interfere with the APN settings they will never know any better when you tell them you just have a "Samsung Galaxy Note II", and they'll be none the wiser as they fix it for you (because it realistically makes no difference in a problem like this).
If you mention it however, they won't want to help, because they don't know anything about custom ROMs (it seems they're all very terrified of them, and believe they are the spawn of Pewdiepie and Justain Beiber or something similar! XD)
Hoping I've been able to help you here, since I've extremely recent knowledge/experiences to do with the APN settings myself! (Also post whoring as I apparently need 10 before I can let the developers of my custom ROM know about some bugs I've found, go figure!)
If I'm incorrect on the issue, then I'm terribly sorry, and please feel free to ignore me -- I do not claim to be affialiated with Net10, Samsung, whatever ROM you have/whoever wrote/maintains it, etc., and am only trying to be helpful where your problem sounds like something I've dealt with before.
EDIT: I just realized I left out the most important bit! The entire reason for calling them instead of working through all the various permutations of APN setting combos is because your APN settings will be based on [A] your SIM, your phone (NOT ROM, just the phone's IMEI pairing to the SIMs), and [C] your home area/location you use the phone most often.
