MMS?

I have an unlocked Nokia Lumia 900 from Rogers. As I'm sure most people here know, getting MMS to function on an unlocked [Nokia] Windows Phone can be a hassle. I've tried hard resetting my phone, changing the APN, etc, and so far I've had no luck whatsoever. Can someone guide me through a process that will enable MMS to work? It's fairly important considering the number of messages I send/receive every day...

Download Network Setup from the Nokia collection. That will configure MMS.

It's not available in Canada, for whatever reason.

Sorry, there's no way to configure MMS without Network Setup.

Are you sure you have Tango?

Tango doesn't let you edit MMS apn's.

Hi,
I had the same issue with Fido until another user on here helped me out. I called Fido and had them reset my data package. I believe the user called it re-provisioning. I have attached the link to the original thread. I just said I was having data issues which was not untrue because my data connection was extremely slow and that I had talked to someone who suggested reseting (re-provisioning) the data plan. After the re-provisioning the MMS started working and my Visual Voice mail (visiual voicemail through mms, not the windows phone as its not supported on Rogers from what I understand). In addition my data connection finally seemed to work correctly.
here is the link:

Hope that helps.

I'm trying to set-up MMS to work on T-Mobile USA. The problem is that the Network Setup app is missing some of the MMS APN settings fields, specifically, MCC, MNC and APN Type. Do you know of any way to work around this problem?

I ran the network setup app and everything works fine on TMo US. MMS & Data. The settings pane (Settings > Cellular > Edit APN info) remains blank, but the settings are there.

I don't know if u still care or not, but u can flash the Mexico's latest ROM (telcel or smth), you won't have LTE, but you'll have everything else functional (mms and tethering included)! And you'll also lose the rogers splashscreen... yay

Has anyone tried the Country Variant Mexico MX Black LTE V1???

Yes, I have. I tried both this one and the TelCel rom. Both of them allowed me to finally use internet sharing and MMS. I'm pretty sure LTE works on both roms too it is just shown as 4G instead of LTE and when you are on HSPA it shows H instead of 4G like with the stock Rogers rom (and probably AT&T too). When tethered and showing 4G as the connection on my phone, I have gotten 1.5 MB/s down and about 800 KB/s up so I'm pretty sure that's an LTE connection. When I went to the cellular settings and changed it to only use 3G data, I get about 150 KB/s down and 80 KB/s up.

[Q] Why Does my Korean N7100 think I'm roaming and not connect to mobile internet?

I bought my n7100 on taobao here in China, and it's a Korean version. I put my China Mobile sim card in, and it makes and receives calls, and text messages and can use wifi with no problem.
The only thing is the mobile data doesn't work. I rooted and tried tweakker, and HiNet, to reset my APN and MMS settings, but that didn't work. My phone still thinks I'm roaming.. it displays
this message "Data Roaming, You have lost data connectivity because you let your home network with data roaming turned off".
I've also tried updating the APN and MMS settings manualy with information i've found on the web.
I've googled and searched this forum and I can't find much. I thought it would be an easy APN settings fix but it seems not to be...
I took my phone in to the local China Mobile store they couldn't fix it. I took it to a local android expert here and they didn't know what to do.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

If you bought a Korean Note 2, you don't (shouldn't) have an N7100. I also purchased one through Taobao.
You should have an SHV-E250S, E250L, or E250K. Which one do you have? Check the baseband version under Settings > About device page.
No matter what, you're going to be limited to 2G only with China Mobile.

You're right, It's SHV-E250S, and I'm fine using the 2g in China on China mobile, but I'd just like to know how..any help?
Baseband Version is E-250SKSVLJK

Try removing all modifications to your APN settings.
Next, go into Settings > More settings > Mobile networks > Network mode and change it to GSM only. Also make sure that Data roaming is not selected. Run a new scan for network operators while you're in there to refresh your APN settings to the right ones.

In data network mode I only have 2 options "3g only" or "LTE Preferred" I have it on 3g only. I have now unchecked data roaming, but I don't see any place to scan for network operators. I have included a few screenshots here, sorry i don't know how to insert them.. http://tinypic.com/r/2198djn/6 http://tinypic.com/r/24dhfmx/6 http://tinypic.com/r/2zof98w/6

Now it's obvious why you don't have data. Is this the stock Korean ROM? Are you rooted?
I can point you to a decent ROM that will fix all of this, provided you have the patience to fix it. It's relatively easy.

Yes it seems to be the stock Korean ROM. I am rooted using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31801060&postcount=2 I'm more than willing to flash another rom. I've put about 20 hours into this so far, I imagine I can muster enough patience to finish it

Once they give us a damn Korean Note II section, this kind of information will be a lot easier to find.
Try this ROM for now, it's the one I've been using for a few weeks and I love it.

Thanks a lot the rom (715mb) is downloading now, I have tried to flash ROM's on my old galaxy nexus, and on this note II, but I never succeeded, can you please link me to a good guide, on how to flash this rom? thanks.

Odin is included in the download. If you're using Windows 7 you may or may not have the drivers for the phone, and can grab them out of the All-in-one Toolkit. Just installing the toolkit should install the drivers necessary.

The ROM you're downloading has two files and two pictures, as well. Open the pictures and follow along. All you have to do is click two buttons, select two files, then hit start. It WILL wipe your phone.

I installed that rom you suggested, I went into settings and did GSM only, and had it automatically find my network (china mobile) selected it, rebooted, and still it says i'm roaming so there is no connectivity... any more ideas?

Can you try somebody else's SIM?
There's no reason you should not be getting service unless something is not right with your SIM or phone.

I installed the rom you suggested, i went into settings and made it GSM only, also had it automatically correctly locate my network (china mobile) and it said "registered on network".. but it still isn't working, same problem, it says no connectivity cus i'm roaming.. any ideas now?

my gf will be home from work in a couple hours, I can try her sim card then.. my sim card was cut by me for my old iPhone.. is it possible or likely that the phone can still make and receive calls, but that somehow data connectivity was affected by me cutting the card? also one guy at the phone fixing store tried his sim card (from another company) and internet worked fine he said..

China mobile have various sim plans, from local to province to national. Are you using the sim in the same city in which you bought it? If not and you don't have a national plan, it could be why the phone is showing roaming. In China going from one province to another is already considered roaming unless you have a national plan. This is from my experience back 2 years ago. Also, you best check at a China mobile shop if you have data activated, gprs/edge is not activated by default, you need to ask them to do it.
I would advise you to switch to China unicom as they have 3g/hspa which is much faster than china mobile.

For clarfication, I am in Hainan, and the card is from hainan. I use the same sim card in my galaxy nexus without any problem. I tried my gf's card just now, it didn't say any problem with connectivity, and did not display roaming.. And it shows the G symbol (for 2 or 3 G I assume), and has up and down arrows next to it.. but it doesn't actually work for browsing the web or using apps over the data network.. I even reset all the APN settings and let it automatically find the China Mobile network, but it didn't help.. what if I try to set the APN settings manualy? and any other ideas??

Showing the G symbol is GPRS, which is 2G. You will not get 3G on the N7100, N7105, or Korean model Note 2 on China Mobile.
Sounds like you need a new SIM card. You can try to set the APN manually to make the data work with hers. I've never had to set an APN manually and I've used many phones here with all 3 carriers, so it's a bit odd to me. No clue why your card doesn't work, but since hers is working fine, it's definitely not your phone.

For the record, her card displayed G, but even after messing with settings, I couldn't get it to have working data network..
Today I bought a new card, and had it officially cut to size, put it in the note II and it's still telling me no data connectivity due to i'm roaming.. i'm so frustrated
edit: after restarting a few times and trying to automatically make it register on china mobile .. it worked on the 4th attempt.. it still displays data roaming, and I had to enable data roaming... but now it works, even though it says i'm roaming?? wtf

Ive the same problem with my Korean galaxy note 2 all voice service work perfect but when I tried to turn on data it says insert Usim Card to access network please help

AT&T Unlocked Note 5 on T-Mobile

Hello is anyone using the AT&T Note 5 unlocked on T-Mobile? I'm having issues with calls on this device and wanted to know if anyone else was having problems. When I went to T-Mobile they told me they had upgraded their towers and because my phone wasn't the T-Mobile variant it could no longer access the call service.
Any help is appreciated

Unable to receive calls whatsoever.
Spoke to Tmo and they said they've done some upgrades on the network and they're seeing this issue a lot more now with non-tmobile phones.
I'm now looking around to see if there are any radio/kernel/rom flashes that can help solve the issue.

Hey thanks for the videos, but I have no idea what they're actually changing in the 2nd one and I dont have the app/shortcut used in the first video.

yo need an app called shortcut master lite

I have idea which code you added to the app. Is it possible for you enable touch pointer in Developer settings to show where you're actually touching the screen? You move too fast to follow in the video.
And which ones you added? Or did you follow any guide online?

Thank you for everything. But I do not see any change and still unable to receive calls.
Guess I'll have to look for another phone.

Got same issue.. U guys found any work-around??

Yup I got the same issue in NYC area too, TMO is not helping at all

Yes *2263# and unlock all your bands. TMO likes to use dedicated bands for RX and TX

For me setting the bands to automatic was the issue, if I set it to GSM and LTE it works fine. *#2263# > [1] Band Selection > [7] LTE/GSM Auto [*]

It works thank you!

Thank you so much. It works! Spent weeks working with TMO support and their solution was to ask me to buy a new TMO phone.

By any chance, are you guys allowed to dial 911?

Yes

I'm also thinking of buying an AT&T Note 5 (they're easier to find than the T-mobile one).
Are you able to get Band 12?
What about Volte? I saw somewhere (I think it was some T-mobile support page but don't know if current) that without Volte you can't have Data and phone call at the same time.
Any advantage to the AT&T version over the T-mobile?
Thanks

Question OnePlus 9 Pro Unlock on TMobile US

Anyone has the problem with MMS texts, especially from iPhone users? Very often, almost every day I have to restart or turn off and on airplane mode to reestablish connection. Should I get the TMobile OnePlus version?

Question APN Settings?

Hey,
I've successfully added an unsupported eSIM to my Pixel Watch.
My issue is that my carrier requires custom APN settings, so currently I can only make phone calls, but have no data..
When I go to the mobile data settings on my PW, I can see an entry for APN, but it's just an empty menu.
Any way of customizing those settings?

Could you

Ordered an eSIM from Vodafone Germany online. After adding the eSIM I was able to add a plan to my watch via the app.

Same eSim now in the watch but no APN and I can't edit or add one.

A long time ago I had problems with APNs for my prepaid carriers not being in android's APN database and would have similar problems (calls only, no data).
At that time, Android stored a list of "all" know APNs in an XML files like this: /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
I was able to download an app on the phone itself, open this file and add whatever APNs I wanted. Then later in the phone settings, my newly added APNs would be available to choose from.
Of course, the main issues being the probable differences between android back then and today...plus differences with Wear.
Back in those days, I found that if I put in an AT&T sim card, android would automatically force the settings from the XML or .db file. If you could find out what APN is being used in that file, you could modify it's details. Does anyone know if Wear uses a similar APN file format as android in the past?

Actually, I just found another post where someone was able to access/modify the telephony database in Wear OS 2.0, but requires root.
How to modify your APN to support an MVNO (FreedomPop, etc)
This guide will cover enabling a custom APN to support MVNO's (FreedomPop, Ting, etc) on your LG Urbane 2 for Android Wear 2.0. Prerequisites: Root watch (I recommend this thread) ADB minimal and fastboot Linux system A little bit of SQL...

Hi @Shebee
I've exactly your same issue, I've add my no supported eSim to my Pixel watch using a VodafoneDE esim.
That was tricky but has worked!
The issue is that I found the apn setting page that is blank... have you find any solution in this weeks?

Yes i have abandoned this for now. I don't want to bother switching just for the smartwatch.

Hello. I activated LTE on the watch. But the APN is incorrect. LTE works partially. Notifications come, YouTube music works (without connecting to the phone and wifi of course). But google assistant does not work, writes: "No internet connection". Why can this be so?

I think I understand why the Internet is so bad. In the APN settings, a proxy server is specified, which is no longer used by the provider. Is there any way to edit the APN?
