Where are the APN settings stored? I mean the file or whatever. Can I backup them?
Thanks.
They are not in the phone. You should add it manually. You can contact your network operator to configure it correctly or you can find the settings on your network operator web page.

Actually, they are In some database, or something...
You can backup and restore them using an app on the market ("APN backup and restore", or something like that, not using it personally...)

Mine are set up automatically, I don't have to do anything
well, thx for that I will have a look in the market ... I thought they are stored in a file or whatever, on the phone.
cause I need to enter them after each flash
Edit: got the app --> http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore
File with APN is stored on "apns-conf.xml" somewhere, i dont know exactly where, sdcard or root (cannot serch, charging my galaxy with power off, right now). I have same file from cyanogen firmware, but dont know prepare for our device, always have some error. This file have APN data almost from all world operators.
Best regards

yes I saw those APN of the other operators. after backing up with the app I looked into this .xml file which is generated by the app and I got 60 entries. but i see only mine in the settings pane on the phone, how come
That was me strange too. But i think, maybe when you etc. go in roaming or chnging SIM card from other operator, connecting with this other operator, we got other APN points in Settings panel. I was make this, and have APN , hanging from wich operater sim card is in my galaxy...(T-Mobile Croatia, VIPnet, and Tele2)

The market is ok on wifi. In 3G, i can browse the net, but not the market. It always gives me the network error. Any idea why?
I get the same exact thing -- It looks like the 3g is actually disabled when the android market is open. The 3g logo actually disappears from the task bar when the market is open. I have to go in and kill the market in the task manager to get the 3g working again. It is really annoying. I am on AT&T if that matters.
The AT&T tech rep I spoke to told me that I would have to call Samsung. (I'm having the same problem with my Galaxy Tab).
i finally got my market working in gingerbread thru 3G! thanks to noxxious for the great help!
try this procedure:
1. backup your data and apps, and your network's apn settings
2. get the sec_csc JQ1.zip from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13936755#post13936755 (post no. 47) and unzip it.
3. overwrite the csc folder in /system with the csc folder you got from step 3 (use root explorer)
4. using your dialpad, enter *#272*your_tab_IMEI#.
5. select "XTC" and press "install" (XTC is the international sales code that works on any country).
6. step 5 will wipe your data. if it fails, then switch off your tab and go to recovery mode (press the "on" key and volume up key at the same time).
7. select "wipe data".
8. when your tab restarts, it will propmt you again for setup (your sim card should be in the tab). when you're asked to connect to packet data, click the checkbox next to it. after setup, when i checked the settings\mobile network\apn settings, the tab automatically created the apn settings for me (if not, then manually create apn settings). switch on 3G and access the market!
it worked for me! hope it works for you, too!
This is GREAT ! I had the same problem before and now it"s fixed !
THANKS to noxxious and to vince_junior ! ! !
Market Update
Does the above solution work even after the update to the Android Market is applied? Obviously, wiping the tab will return it to the default apps, including Market.
I can go in to the "App" manager and uninstall the Market update and then it works on 3g but as soon as the update reinstalls (automatically), then the 3g is disabled again.
Thanks
Strange. I have the stock gingerbread but i don'have that problem over 3G. Vodafone in my country have 2 diffrent data plan, "Mobile Internet" where i have no problem with anything, and "Internet on Mobile" where i can browse over the web, but i can't receive calls from Viber or Tango. Those 2 apps work great on " Mobile Internet", so maybe is your data plan who make that things. I have tryed right now on Mobile Internet to open and browsing the Market and is work like a charm.

the sec_csc file in the above post is for philippine carrier networks only. though you could do something similar with a sec_csc for your carrier networks.
Is there any other fix for this? I don't really want to start from scratch on my Glaxy tablet.
US based--at&t carrier.
same problem here. just flashed to overcome hermes and the market does not work on 3g. us att tab. im not really exited about reloading everything- i just finished. perhaps there is another solution?
i have an SGT-P1000N and flashed GB and now my dial-er does not work i am on US T-mobile, i was able to check my voice mail after i did the update, now it goes back to home screen when i hit the call button. any help. or or help going back to Froyo. Thank you

starting web server
Hi,
When I try and start the webserver I get an error:
"An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions"
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I used Version 1311 without Webserver (see Post 2).
Install XAP and start Navigon, download Maps...... be Happy
Got the same error, did you find any solution?
Anyway, downloading the 1311 version now.
Found the solution, I had my local web server running, i stopped it and no error message appears anymore.

What tool are you using to install? What error do you get?
I had no problem to install it (v.1321) in BTTF rom. I used TOM XAP Installer 1.2. But double clicking .xap installationn failed, so I ran TOM XAP installer as admin explicitly and add .xap file there to install. It works that way.

Yeah I actually ended up getting 1321 to install fine.. it turns out my whole issue was trying to get the north American maps to work.. which didn't really work out at all so I've given up trying and will just learn to live with Bing.
you must change region in menu to get US maps working...
Which Code must be entered to get german language and maps?

is it possible to have Australian maps?
yes... simple change region to AU in Navigon
1. get AUS and NZ data filesets from Android Navigon V3.6.0 for Aus.
copy data,map,poi,sound from sdcard to your pc. use these files to replace all EU files(of course you also need to download all files of EU firstly).
2. install xap to your WP7, latest version is here, download data from kounadisk web server.

You have to get the correct APN (Access Point Name) for your provider to make data/MMS to work, you should not require the XT883 firmware. Just try google with your SIM provider followed by APN settings.. such as "Orange UK APN Settings" or check their website, or give them a call for the correct APN settings. Some SIMs have the APNs locked into the SIM, some of them do not include APNs (You might check a phone from the SIM provider for the APN).
When you find the correct settings, go to Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Create a new APN and enter the info you found. Also check Battery & Data Manager > Data delivery to ensure data is enabled.

I personally use MavRom (Maverick Rom) version 4.0, as version 4.5 has a battery drain issue with the overclock script. It's based on 906 with modifications and tweaks.

so i was going through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812 for flashing xt883 radio on my phone as the reception is very bad i had a few doubts
1) do you connect your phone to the pc while doing this
2) do you download root explorer on your phone from the app store and are there any free ones
3) and how do you go about doing this ( Use root explorer to push the build.prop into the system folder )
i am very sorry for being such a noob, its my first android phone

On Stock and Blur based roms, there's a little line in the build.prop that Verizon snuck in.. that makes any GSM network appear to have bad reception (only 1~2 bars) but if you check under status, the reception is actually good. You can fix that by editing this line in build.prop;
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1
Change the 1 to 0 and save, then reboot, this should fix the 'reception issue'
A free root browser would be JRummy's Root browser lite, or ES File Explorer (you can enable root browsing in settings).
Build.prop is in /system
IF YOU INSIST ON FLASHING XT883 (Only required for using AT&T/T-Mobile/Other USA GSM networks)
Open a root browser; copy the build.prop you have to the SDCard or somewhere safe. Copy the build.prop (after you edit the line I mentioned before on the PC, you can use notepad). After you put it in /system MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE PERMISSIONS. Most root browsers just long-press build.prop, then tap permissions (ES is Properties > permissions) Check only Read (on all three, user, other, etc) and Write on Owner ONLY.
Then use the fastboot instructions to flash the XT883 radio. THIS WILL BREAK VERIZON CDMA.
Hello to everybody. I'm italian and I have a problem with my XT890 stock (booloader locked, android 4.1.2, system version 91.2.26001.XT890.Retail.en.EU) and sim card by italian operator Noverca. Noverca is a Full Mobile Virtual Network Operator, MMC 222 MNC 07, working in roaming with TIM (222-01).
When I enter my sim Noverca, on phone: menu> Setup> Other> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names> APN cannot find any access point. If I try to create one ... > New APN> Edit access point> (insert the parameters provided by my operator)> ... > Save, the new APN created by me is not saved and the list of APN available is always empty. Similarly if I receive a message from my operator self-configuring and save these settings, I see a pop-up that the configuration was successful but when I go to see the list of APN find it empty again.
I tried to configure it with the data on and off, data roaming , but always no results. The problem also doesn't occur with sim of other carriers.
The sim card is new and works fine on my other Android phones (RAZR XT910, Galaxy i5800), making right APNs.
In system/etc/ apns-conf.xml file there is written the configuration for my carrier but it's wrong (there is written MMC 222 MNC 01)!
I contacted Motorola XT890 but the answer is that it was not released in Italy and may have compatibility issues. (But in Germany, France and UK has been released and the gsm/wcdma networks are the same as in Italy!)
Thank you for helping.
Same happens to me. Try reseting apn to default and edit the config that should appear.

Thanks but in my case doesn't work. Also at the reboot there isn't any apn saved.
I solved this problem unlocking the bootloader and making Root.
After I went to system/etc and renamed apns-conf.xml in apn-conf.bak (only to have a backup, i could delete the file and it was the same).
Then I went to menu> Setup> Other> Mobile Networks> Access Point Names and resetted APN to default.
Now I can write my carrier's APNs and they are saved without disappearing.
