[Q] Unable to set APN after flashing cm7

Unable to set or change the APN after flashing cm7. The list shows up blank and while I do get a signal and can make calls I cannot use cell data. I did the process from scratch twice and even flashed down to .368 which did not help. I saw a guy using Telia with the same issue on CM forums. I use AT&T with LT15a, bootloader remote unlocked to preserve DRM keys.

It seems like a known issue for few people. Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102523

But you can MANUALY set this settings?

No you cannot manually set the APN. The problem has been acknowledged and fixed.
Fixed build is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18361893&postcount=1393

Hi,
this build does not work for me.
I´am the last with this bug?
I tried these builds
- update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaArc-LT15i-SELFKANG-RILTEST-signed
- update-cm-7.1.0.1-XperiaArc-LT15i-signed
- update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaArc-LT15i-KANG-signed.
Always the same with data connection.
My provider is t-mobile.de.
My sim-card is realy old, i think 10 years. Is this the reason?
regards haudegen

Yeah actually a sim that old will never work with 3g. I learned this on T-Mobile in the US. From what I understand there is a 3g component in the newer Sims. Just get a new card.

Whats your favorite wifi tether app for rooted phones, that's confirmed working.

For those using a windows computer that keep getting rerouted try this:
download ultrasurf (Google it)
Run it and wait till it connects.
Done. Enjoy browsing..

it doesn't work with T-Mobile, because there is the Mobile Hotspot app...If someone can remove that from the device, I tried it with root but it didn't work...but if you used the international version of your rom....then it works....between International has no wifi calling...in case you either live in the no signal zone, or you are traveling abroad....

That works with MYROM version 2.1 with the APN Fix. I using that combination for the past 2 weeks with no problems.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

Just use the treVee mod (if your rooted) that way you dont have to change or delete your apns and it even comes with a little widget to turn it on and off.
you have to change some of the settings in the app in order to get it to work properly, pm me if u wanna know the settings

easy tether app on the market
download chrome for your laptop/desktop
download user agent chrome extension
change it to a mobile browser
done.

[Q] no mobile data

I know this is not the US Cellular area but I do not think we have one so here it goes. I have US Cellular s3 and have run custom roms for sometime I flashed one the other day and now my mobiel data does not work, everything else is fine text, wifi and phone just mobile data. I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this, I have performed a factory reset and put the phone back to stock with the Samsung upgrade tool, flash counter 0 and status normal. Do I need to flash a new radio or modem and if so can I do it in download mode with the stock rom inplace or will I need to root and put a rom on.
Thank you for helping.

It's your APN settings. Check with your carrier what they are, then go into settings, more networks, mobile network (or something like that) and click on APN. You will have the option to add an APN.

Well I am on 10.1.3 and it is working is there someplace I can see what settings it is using, I go to APN and it is blank what file is it in do you know.
Sent from my SCH-R530U using xda app-developers app

If the other s3 is rooted from Uscc n works on uscc yes you can use the same settings. If you call Uscc they won't tell you BC its rooted. The techs don't even have that info.
You just input the mmsc and all the APN settings in and your data will work.

If you call your carrier, you will ensure you have the right settings. It doesn't take much longer than doing a google search for them.

Since you are using it on Rogers, You will need to root and change your build prop, or flash the panama rom to get tether working. Its the AT&T Rom stopping you cause each time you try to enable tethering it only knows to check with AT&T and no one else.

You should only have to do it once. So not sure about that. As long as your setting it to lte/wcdma/gsm

Yea there's no way around that but to use a name like LG with no security and that only occanlly works. I thought you flashed the panama rom?? The build prop changes are not required for tethering to work that's only for the att version.

[Q] Sprint LS970 APN Settings

I ported my phone to straight talk from sprint and my data is working but the speeds are very slow. Straight talk told me to manually enter APN settings they provided me but it's not where it is supposed to be under the mobile networks settings. LG support told me it should be there and if it's not that Sprint has removed, hidden or disabled it. Does anyone know how to access APN settings on this phone?

I'm not sure because Ive never had to do it on this phone. I know Sprint has removed/hidden/disabled it. Certain 3rd party messaging apps will allow you to change the apn settings but I dont think it's system wide. I'm not by my phone currently so I cant test this right now but we do have a hidden menu. From your phone dial 3845#*970# to access the hidden menu.
If apn settings aren't in there you could always try a different rom. You would have to be rooted and unlocked with a custom recovery but most of them will allow you to change the apn settings. If you go that route, head over to the original development section for our phone and read the root guide by engine95 found there VERY CAREFULLY. Sorry if this isn't much help but like I said, Ive never had to do this because I'm still on Sprint Stock.

I tried some apps but they don't work on android 4+ they say and I've tried some secret menus with no success. Can't remember if I tried that one or not. Ill check real quick. I am rooted but I've been hesitant to switch Rome since stock works so well but I may have to look into it. Can anyone recommend a hassle free rom?

Yeah I was worried it wouldnt be in there. Most roms have some slight issues, I prefer stock myself and have been modifying it manually. Cyanogenmod 10.2 is probably your best bet though. It's based on Android 4.3, CM 11 is 4.4 based and mostly smooth but still not labeled as stable.
EDIT: Just make sure you make a full backup of what you have now in TWRP. I'd use TWRP 2.5.0.0 btw. Backup all partitions so if something goes wrong you can restore it back. And follow the install directions for CM precisely. Good luck!

try thisOffline SIM APN Database Otherwise consider using a custom rom or even a stock variant.

I'm not sure that database will help me since Sprint is cdma, but also I already have the correct apn settings from straight talk. My phone just doesn't doesn't have the option to input them thanks to Sprint. Cell providers really need to stop locking people in at this point. If your services were good and your price was competitive then people would stay with you, without the gimmicks. Sorry to rant I'm just really sick of all the cat and mouse games of unlocking a phone. I think I probably will just use a custom rom since my phone won't have anymore limitations after that, but that is still more work than I wanted to do just to change apn settings. Thanks for the feedback guys!

I have heard of other apps not having much luck with changing apn settings for us. Even tho I dont currently need it, thanks for the heads up!

It didn't change it for me. It said ICS or later prevents it but it did allow me to open the menu which was good enough for me. Still having a problem where after a reboot it keeps creating the sprint apn after I delete it but I figure that's baked into this stock rom somehow. Prob still be switching roms but I will play with it some more. It also keeps trying to reactivate on sprint but I was glad to at least see the menu. If it were not for some clever sprint engineers that app would have worked perfectly.
