Hello, I'm new to the XDA forum so sorry in advance if I'm violating any unspoken rules. I have read through quite many threads here, but I couldn't find a solution for my issues.
I'm trying to change my APN Protocol from ipv6 to ipv4 in order to get the PS4 Remote Play app to work over LTE/4G as well as wifi.
I found the instructions here , but I can't seem to find the "APN protocol" setting with the rest of the APN settings.
All I see in the list are: "Name, APN, Proxy, Port, Username, Password, Server, MMSC, MMS proxy, MMS port, MMS protocol, MCC, MNC, Authentication type, APN type, APN enable/disable and Rearer". But "APN protocol" is nowhere to be found.
I'm running the stock 5.0.1 and I have no interest in rooting at this time. My carrier is DNA (Finland).
Any solutions for this?

I asked this n another thread, but no joy.
I installed the latest Kavana ROM, works GREAT. Thanks for that.
But, some questions.
I'd like to understand how all the networks and proxy things work.
I understand how proxy servers work for the PC world, but I don't understand all the various connections and proxies on the smartphone.
I'm on T-mobile, and I used the connection wizard. But then MMS and SMS weren't working quite right, so I applied some other settings from some other posts and right now, it all (IE, SMS, MMS) seems to work.
But, I am not at all confident I could reproduce this if I had to flatten the device again. Is there something I can read to understand the relative significance of all the various named networks: "work" "TMobile MMS" "Tmobile Data" "WAP Network" "Secure WAP Network" and "The Internet" and also the various proxies that route to these various networks?
Do I really need all the connections - I have like 7 of them.
The new-inet:1118 proxy - what is that for?
That hostname, is it really meaningful?
I also have a new-corp:1159 proxy,
with a name of HTTP:{3F31657F... (etc etc guid)}
What is THAT thing for?
I'd feel better if I understood all these settings, when and why I need a proxy. etc etc . thanks for pointers.
Anyone know?
Anyone know the answer to this? anyone have any clues to offer me?
I'm also having trouble w/ the MMS after installing Ricky's ROM. Are you able to pull the MMS settings from your phone and share? Otherwise, does anyone else know all of the settings?

These cryptic settings come from active sync. I see them if I allow my DASH to sync with my office Windows XP machine with networking enabled. and my office trys to use the network my Dash is on. Once these entries are created, I can not use my t-mo net connection (cheap version). But it is all fine, once I delete these unknown entries.
My MMS Settings
Here's what I did to get MMS to work, in and out.
I am using Kavana 1.33 ROM.
1. set up 2 connections:
Start...Settings....Connections....GPRS
Now, either add a New item, or edit an existing one.
Description: T-Mo Web or T-Mo Data or something else similarly descriptive
Connects to: The Internet
Access point: internet2.voicestream.com
Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Authentication Type: None
Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0
Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0
IP Address: <blank>
Done
[the above gets you a connection to the Internet ]
Again, either add a New item, or edit an existing one.
Name: T-Mo WAP or T-Mo MMS or something descriptive
Connects To: WAP Network
Access Point: wap.voicestream.net
[everything else as above]
Done
[the above gets you a connection to the T-mobile WAP network]
Done
[you are in Settings...Connections, now.]
2. set up one proxy
Scroll to "Proxy"
[this is also reachable directly from home screen via: Start...Settings....Connections....Proxy]
New.... or Edit an existing (your preference)
Name: Tmo WAP->Internet
Connects from: Wap Network
Connects To: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP
Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Done
[the above sets up a proxy connection for your SMS/MMS]
Done
[you are in Settings...Connections, now.]
3. Set up SMS preferences
Scroll to "SMS Service"
[this is also reachable directly from home screen via: Start...Settings....Connections....SMS Service]
SMS over: GPRS Preferred
Done
[your are now back in Settings...Connections]
Pess the red "call end" button.
[you are now back on the home screen]
4. Set up MMS on the device:
Start...Messaging
scroll to MMS
Menu...Settings...
Menu (again)
MMSC Settings
Menu...New or Menu....Edit (your pleasure).
[the settings for this MMSC thing should be:]
Name: whatever you like, I used "Picture Messaging"
MMSC URL: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
WAP Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Connect Via: WAP Network
Max. Sending Size: 300k (or whatever you prefer)
WAP version: WAP 2.0
Done
Done
Done
HOME
5. set up IE
Start...Internet Explorer
Menu...Tools...Options...Connections
Automatically Detect Settings - This works either way for me, checked or unchecked
Select network: The Internet.
Done
Done
----
All of the above allows me to send out SMS and MMS messages, and receive in such messages, as welll as surf the internet from IE.
I have the $19.99/month T-Mobile internet plan in the USA.
If you have the $5.99 T-zones plan, then I think your settings may be different.
Search elsewhere for that.
ActiveSync creates new-inet and new-corp proxies?

Are you sure? Are you sure those things come from ActiveSync and are not just in the Kavana ROM? I use Windows Vista, and the Windows Mobile Device Center, which is the replacement for Activesync. I have never used WinXP and ActiveSync (on the PC) with this device, but I did have those weird entries. I don't see those odd proxy entries get recreated when I sync with Vista+WMDC.
I assuming that the odd proxy entries that reference "new-corp" and "new-inet", were just "in" the ROM by default. Or maybe they were set up when I ran the Internet Connection Wizard which is in the ROM. I don't know for sure. This is why I am asking you, ARE YOU SURE that those entries come from ActiveSync?
Do they return *every time* you sync?
In any case, lacking any real response from the board, I removed the proxy entries from my device, and for me at least, everything still works - SMS, MMS, Internet, etc.
I hate the fact that this still feels so mysterious.

Damn. I put in all of these settings exactly as shown and still get an "Error Synchronizing" message when I try and send/receive MMS messages. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on T-Mobile, $20 plan w/ Ricky's 6.1.
i managed to buy a desire the day they came out,but unfortunatly it was locked to tmobile.i managed to get it unlocked via htcode,but have not managed to either go on the internet or send mms messages with o2.i have looked through various answers to the question of settings for the desire and some people have said that they have managed to use it successfully.i have tried adding a new apn with the various settings found among these pages but now wonder if tmobile hide a default apn within their software that i cannot see to delete. any help please!
What do you see when you go to:
Menu - Settings - Wireless & Networks - Mobile Networks - Access Point Names
There should be a list of APNs - if so, list them here.
One of them should have a green dot to the right of it - which one?
Zippyioa
originally there were none.now there are 2 both of which i have created o2 uk mms and o2 mobile web (the green dot)
Ok that's a great start....
If you go back to: menu - settings - wireless networks check that Mobile Network is ticked. If it is what does it say below it?
turning on it constantly says that,sometimes connection failed
Can you untick mobile network? If so, try it, wait, then tick it again and see if it connects....
If not your APN settings may be wrong, so go into Mobile Networks - Access Point Names and click on the one for the internet settings.
List them here so I can check they are right.
Also, has this O2 SIM worked on the internet before? If not you may need to call O2 for them to enable it
the sim worked fine on an n95.unticking and reticking makes no difference.the settings i have are as follows
name o2 mobile web
apn mobile.o2.co.uk
proxy not set
port not set
username o2 web
password password
server not set
mmsc not set
mms proxy not set
mms protocol wap 2.0

apn type not set

Ok, they all look ok except one thing. Try editing the username - change it from o2 web to mobileweb and make sure you save changes!
See if that works.
Zippyioa
changed,saved,rebooted nothing,still says turning on under mobile networks
That's no good....
OK, just to make sure we have this right, delete ALL the current settings in the APN menu, then reboot the phone with the O2 SIM in it - this might pick up the settings you need.
If it doesn't, go here: http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html and use the GPRS settings for O2 to add the APN. Once done, save, then reboot and see if that works.
I assume this is a contract SIM, not pay as you go? From memory o2 PAYG wasnt setup for internet in the same way....
yes yes yes i was begining to think i would never see the internet on this phone.i can only say thank you.i went to the site you suggested and entered the settings provided and as if by magic!!!!
thanks again
Persistence always pays off in the end.
Glad its sorted now, enjoy mobile intetnet!

I've tried various different settings, but I can't get MMS to work reliably, regardless of when wifi is on or off. I don't have wifi calling turned on.
Just by putting the SIM into my phone, it had three APNs: IMS, fast.tmobile, and TMUS.
Appreciate any help!
I've kept playing around with it, and it seems to be working now. Hopefully this works for others that may have problems. I'll update if I end up running into issues again.
1. Delete the fast and TMUS APNs. I left the IMS APN alone. Good news is, you can restore the three original ones by selecting "restore defaults" in the top right menu.
2. create a new one with the following settings:
APN "fast.t-mobile.com"
MMSC http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC is 310
MNC is 260
APN Type is default,supl,mms
APN protocol is IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol is IPv4/IPv6
MMS is and was working for me out of the box
When I go the phone and looked in APN settings and saw 3 of them there and the first one was pre-selected. I just went into each of them and checked the info out, but I have not changed anything.
Hi, I'm in Ireland, my Tesco Mobile sim card won't register automatically on the network for data. Would any of the UK or Irish lads have the APN settings for the Swift on Tesco Mobile.
The phone model or brand is not on their website yet for self registration.

You can expand the Android section below the input boxes, and get the details to manually set up the APN? (Just skip 1 & 2)
Can't post the link to Tescos APN settings, as I don't have enough posts, so just Google "tesco mobile apn settings ireland", it's the first post
Cheers, I tried that, it didn't work. I must have done it wrong, I'll try again tonight when she gets home from work.
Thanks for the help.

Direct from Tesco Mobile website:
From your Android Phone, select the Settings icon . In the settings menu scroll down until you see Mobile networks.
You should now see an option called Access Point Names.
Tesco Mobile recommend you reset to default all listed APN’s, you can do this through the top right section of the Access Point Names dialog box, in the below example click on the MORE button.
When complete you should have 2 NEW APN’s added similar to the picture below. This reset allows you to successfully browse the internet and send MMS messages. If you are still experiencing issues, please follow the details below.
Within the Access Point Names menu edit the settings for Tesco Mobile Internet, this can be done by clicking on the icon you will need to verify all settings match the one’s listed below.
Name: Tesco Mobile Internet
APN: tescomobile.liffeytelecom.com
MCC: 272
MNC: 11
APN Type: default
Within the Access Point Names menu edit the settings for Tesco MMS, this can be done by clicking on the icon you will need to verify all settings match the one’s listed below.
Name: Tesco MMS
APN: tescomobile.liffeytelecom.com
MMSC: http://mmc1/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: 10.1.11.19
MMS Port: 8080
MCC: 272
MNC: 11
APN TYPE: MMS
APN Protocol: IPv4
When you have entered all of these settings please reboot the phone to allow the settings to take effect.
I have an unlock VS986VK that I gave to my son to to use on his ATT account. They activated the phone and he can make and receive phone calls and MMS but gets NO mobile data. Beside the signal indicator there is an H... but anything that requires data says there is no data connection. I've Googled for about 3 hours or so and tried various APN's and I've also tried switching networks types and subtypes a few times with no success. Is there something I'm missing? Its my understanding that this particular phone will not be able to use ATT LTE 4G because of different bands being used... but he should be able to get some kind of data right?
APN's are a complete B****! I have VS982 and Straight Talk with Verizon, and even after a fresh factory reset AND stock firmware flash my phone wouldnt get data. Even with the APN typed in correct. I had to root my phone, and use a backup of my APN settings from my LG G2 with the app "APN BACKUP and RESTORE". Luckilly I had it backed up. It shows when I backup or restore that there are actually 33 APNs being moved. (For my phone atleast) and if I clear all APN's and just add the main one, it still wont work.
Anyhow, have you tried this one?
