[Q] APN Settings for AT&T? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

NOTE: I posted this in the General Section as well, but I realized that may have been the incorrect place to post my question, hence I am posting it here. Mods, feel free to delete that post in the General Section.
First off, I have a Desire Z (Bell Version) that I have rooted with stable version of CM 7.03.
I have been problems sending MMSes for a while now. I've looked up the various settings listed all over the Internet, but nothing has worked. I've tinkered and I rebooted the phone everytime I changed the APN settings.
Here's what's on my phone currently (this is after doing much tinkering from the various settings I've found on the Internet):
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: Not Set
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 69.209.11.32
MMS Port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: PAP or CHAP
APN Type: default,supl,mms
Now after deleting this APN and resetting to default, this is what I have:
Name: ATT
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: [email protected]
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Not Set
APN Type: default,supl,mms
After going to the default settings, I still can't send MMSes and it's driving me nuts.
Also, I noticed there's version 7.1 out. However, as far as I know, MMS supposedly works fine on the version I have and I do remember being able to send MMS in the past occasionally, so I don't know what's going on...
Anybody have any ideas?

Flash the latest nightly after a wipe. You could also try a third party texting app.

How to disable LTE?

Hello.
I just wondering, I create a new APN with information from my old Atrix 4G, do you think it will automatically disable LTE and will save battery?
P.S.
I'm in non-LTE area and in order for Nitro connect to internet I had to either change my plan to LTE or add new APN. I did the later and it seems to work fine, getting slightly better speed then on Atrix.
Just in case someone need this, here is APN data I've used:
Code:
Name: HSDPA
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: cingular1
Server:
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Auth type:
APN type: default,mms,supl,agps,fota,dun
Saw something similar on androidcentral, though the settings there didn't work. I think I will try to setup a tasker profile to change the apn when I am connected to wireless to see if it helps save battery?

[Q] T-Mobile USA MMS... Due to APN settings?

This is a problem that has plagued me since day 1 when I got my N1, persisted through my Nexus S, and now with my Galaxy Nexus and I have vowed to fix this...
Whenever I receive a MMS message regardless of the sender's carrier, the message comes in and says "Subject: no subject" before the picture is displayed. Small, trivial, issue yes, but I can not for the life of me get rid of it and have tried nearly every possible APN setting from Googling alternate options. I have also tried using replacement messaging apps and all have the same result. My current APN settings are:
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: Not Set
MMS Port: Not Set
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: Not Set
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Can anyone help?

Will give it a shot. Tested immediately after changing the setting and still received the "Subject: no subject", but I will give it some time to update and report back.
Some time later and still experiencing the "Subject: no subject" message...
Just chatted with T-Mobile online and was told the following:
_Braxton M: That is definitely strange. I believe this may just be something with T-Mobiles services.
Me: How can I go about fixing this?
_Braxton M: This is something that unfortunately cannot be fixed. This is a standard function of T-Mobile devices.
Me: So you're saying that ALL t-mobile devices when receiving MMS messages will display "Subject: no subject" when the sender hasn't specified a subject field?
_Braxton M: Yes, that is correct. I myself experience this daily.

The only thing different between these settings and my settings is that the Username for me was Not Set. I switched it to "None" and still experiencing the same issues.
hmm not sure.. those settings are working for me..
try a reboot after?

I'm experiencing the same issue and while its a small issue, its annoying.
Has anyone been able to figure out how to suppress the Subject: No Subject message during MMS?
Is not everyone experiencing this when a subject is not specified?
iOS has a setting where you can turn it off, I'm surprised Android does not have this functionality or does not just omit the subject when the sender does not set one.

[Q] problems with data, especially market

Just hooked up my new Galaxy Nexus on ST today. Talk, text and data work... except for the data sometimes
Data is slow and spotty despite good signal. When Google Play tries to access the network it fails almost every time. I've found other posts about this solution and tried these two APN settings with no luck:

Any ideas?

Do not Mess with APNs, the phone gets those from your carrier automaticly... Try flashing some other radios.. For me xxkk6 or any ug version wont work or barely works.. Only xxkl1 works great for me depends on your zone/carrier and several other factors.. So go ahead and find the basebands thread in the general section, download all the radios for gsm (Assuming you have a GSM phone) get the img files and flash them via fastboot and try until you get a Stable service

I appreciate the response. Straight Talk says you must and, from what I experienced, the APN was not set automatically and though I had voice and text data did not work at all until I did set it. That might be the case for phones that accept OTA programming but I don't think it's true for unlocked phones or when switching carriers. (I had to set the APN on my Evo after flashing it from Sprint to PagePlus because OTA programming doesn't work)
Thanks for the advice on the radio though. I'll try it

AT&T gs3 Signal Problems

I have searched here and google and tried about everything but I cannot find a solution. I have been having a problem with my at&t gs3 not picking up a signal, it will have bars sometimes with no data, then randomly drop all signal together. Sometimes I can get 4g after initially changing APNs, but it always drops out after a few seconds. I did get it to stay on edge for a little bit, but that also dropped out. This started right after I rooted the phone. I then installed Task's ROM, first the ICS then the JB version, to see if that would help, and it didn’t. I went through several APN settings to see if that was the problem, nothing gave a solution. So I tried returning to complete stock through Odin and that didn’t fix the problem either. I was getting full 4g before I rooted it, so know the problem was caused in the rooting process. I just want to know if there’s anything I can do to fix this, or should I just try and return the phone now that it is back to stock? Here are the APNs I tried, none of which fix my problem (the x in the hxxp are t):

This, can someone help with this?
Edit: the HSPDA one worked for me. It was the last one I tried...

Funny, I'm having the same exact problem also. I came across this thread looking for a stock image to return my phone back to stock to see if that helps.
I'm on Task's latest build. I even reflashed the modem to see if that helped but no luck.
Have you found a solution to this?
