So after the nightmare I had trying to get my Nexus 5 and previous Verizon account over to Net10, I decided I'd try out H2O wireless. The process is all great, easy to get on it, but can't get a hold of the correct APN settings for it yet.
Yet.
I've got a few, but thought I'd see what others are using and recommending.
I'm on the $60 Unlimited everything plan.
Here's what I've found.

So what is everyone else using? I've done some searching but haven't found much at all.
I just use the APN and MMSC and MMS Proxy, APN Type is all i put in there.
I'm pretty sure they have an app that will help with that.
How do you like the service and everything ? I will most likely be switching to them next month.

They do, incompatible with 4.0 and up because Google no longer allows 3rd party apps to change or as APN settings.
Been in it for one day, but so far it is as good as Straight Talk, but more data.
Well if you have root access you can convert that h20 app into a system app with titanium backup. Then it'll do its thing and get you the right APN.

Hmm, interesting idea. I might give that a shot, it's just nice to be able to see what the actual settings are since we can't see what they are in an existing APN. At least not in the ROM I'm running.
Is be nice to get what others are using too. My first day has been pretty good.
Speeds are limited on the plan i'm on apparently which is the $50 one. The $60 plan should be faster.
When I said I just use the APN I meant the same settings you have above but the rest of the fields are blank. So mine looks like this:
Name: H2O Wireless
APN :att.mvno
MMSC:http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
MMS Type: default,mms,hipri,supl (no space between then)
That's all.
Speeds I haven't tested as it's HSPA+ but prolly limited to 7.2Mbps speeds or something. The $60 plan is "10x" faster, whatever that means.
I don't know how good that APN is for the $60 plan, I did a speed test and had 5 megs on H+, then added your APN settings in and restarted. the highest I can get is one mag with those.
EDIT: nevermind, seems to be working fine now. Thanks.

I tried this but before and after I installed the app all it'll do is force close. Thanks though.
H20 APNs for Nexus 5
Hey everyone, I would like to see what APNs you all are using for the Nexus 5, I am wanting to use my phone to get one of the unlimited plans for the Nexus 5 via H20 Wireless, but I cant seem to get my phone number to pull up on the website when I'm on my account in H20, so if I could get the codes that would be a great help!
Thanks
Posh Titan e500a APN for H2O wireless
I recently purchased the Posh Titan e5000a dual sim phone. H2O has no setting for it.
After fiddling with it for a while I found setting that work for both internet and MMS.
There is no need to create a second apn for mms. It also doesn't matter if you have wifi on as long as data is enabled these settings work.
To get to the apn settings,
Settings -> More -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names -> new APN (touch the menu on the top right corner for "new apn" option)
Name: Internet APN

APN: att.mvno

When testing the MMS use very small photos, I thought the setting were wrong until I was patient and waited a few minutes. Next I attempted a much smaller photo and it only took 5 seconds.
I hope these setting help someone.

how do we get MMS without the t-mobile g1 data plan?
I dont think its possible. I guess you can get Chomp SMS and pay for it there which could be cheaper but i dont know if it supports MMS...
i cant really help you . but i can say that its worth the 20 or 30 bucks for the internet plan
Agreed with G-Fetus. Plus you can always tell people to e-mail it to your gmail and you can download the attachment from there.
ok this worked for me...
Goto
Menu -> Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names -> T-Mobile US
Make sure you go into T-mobile US and not any other settings.
Change the settings to the following:
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: wap.voicestream.com
proxy: 216.155.165.050
port: 8080
Username: not set (delete everything in this field)
Password: not set (delete all here too)
Server: not set (delete the *)
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.050
MMS Port: 8080
MMC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: not set
Restart your phone. Now your MMS should work.
*Troubleshooting*
1. If you’re having trouble still, go into mobile networks and enable ‘data roaming’ and ‘use only 2G’
- I've tried this and it seems to be working for me.. this is the only solution i know..

does this still work? i heard t-mobile blocked G1s from using this
it still works on mine..
I tried that on my phone because I am having the same problem. Doesn't work for me. Although I didn't edit the T-Mobile US APN, I made a new one, if that somehow matters.
If anyone has figured out anything on how to get mms messages to work without a data plan please let me know. Everything else on my phone works perfectly.
I figured my new friend [girl] had sent the picture to my gmail instead of text. I'd like this to.
Hey guys
I set up an APN for my Internet service which works fine.
I then set up a second APN for my MMS service which also works fine.
(running stock 2.2 Android on my O2X)
Here is the problem... I can only have one service operating at any one time.
The APNs have radio buttons beside their names which means you can only select one APN at a time.
I have to switch out of 3G to send and receive MMS.
My telco has informed me that I cannot combine the Internet and MMS settings on a single APN to prevent the need to switch APNs.
They have told me their must be a setting on the handset to make both APNs work at the same time.
Does this make sense to any of you?
To me it seems logical to have a single APN handling both Internet and MMS.
Is it a matter of setting the correct "APN type" in the APN settings?
Thanks for any help.
Just merge your them.
Apn type should then be: default, supl, mms

Thanks for the reply.
What would you set as the APN... internet or mms or something else?
Should work with whatever you want. Its just a name

Thanks again for your help.
I greatly appreciate any assistance.
Unfortunately, it is not so simple.
My telco is definitely using the APN field as more than just a name.
If I do not set APN as "internet", the 3G stops working.
Similarly, I need to use "mms" in the APN field for mms services.
So it seems to demand one or the other.
My telco (amaysim) gave me the following settings:
INTERNET SETTINGS
Tap APN and enter internet and tap Ok
Ensure Proxy is Not Set
Ensure Port is Not Set
Ensure Username is Not Set
Ensure Password is Not Set
Ensure Server is Not Set
Ensure MMSC is Not Set
Ensure MMS Proxy is Not Set
Ensure MMS Port is Not Set
Ensure MCC is 505
Ensure MNC is 02
Tap Authentication Type and select Not Set
Tap APN Type and select Not Set
MMS SETTINGS
Tap APN and enter mms and tap Ok
Ensure Proxy is Not Set
Ensure Port is Not Set
Ensure Username is Not Set
Ensure Password is Not Set
Ensure Server is Not Set
Tap MMSC and enter http://mmsc.optus.com.au:8002/
Tap MMS Proxy and enter 61.88.190.10
Tap MMS Port and enter 8070
Ensure MCC is 505
Ensure MNC is 02
Tap Authentication Type and select Not Set
Tap APN Type and select Not Set
So my telco requires 2 APNs to be set up, but the O2X only seems to use 1 APN setting at a time.
This means I have to switch to the mms APN whenever I want to use MMS.
Can the O2X be set to read 2 APN settings at the same time?
If not, I have to merge the settings into a single APN.
When I try to merge the settings into a single APN, I get stuck with the APN field.
The telco wants APN set as "internet" or "mms".
I have tried setting APN to:
"internet, mms"
"internet + mms"
"internet and mms"
...but this stops the internet from working.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Either to get 2 APNs working at the same time, or to merge the settings into 1 APN.
Thank you in advance.

Please differentiate between "APN type" and "APN name".
I have APN type as "default, supl" for internet and "mms" for mms.
The MMS one does not even have a radio option.

You have 2 separate APNs (one for internet and one for MMS) set up that work simultaneously on an O2X with Android 2.2?

Thanks for your help HerrKuk
I spoke to my Telco again today and they continue to state that the internet and MMS settings for their service cannot be combined into a single APN.
They told me that other Android handsets do not have the same problem and can manage two separate APNs.
At this stage I think I will just leave it on the internet APN by default and switch APNs temporarily whenever I have to send and receive an MMS.
A messy solution, but maybe this will do until the 2.3 upgrade is finally released by LG.
Hi I tried to look for my issue on the forum, but seem to have problem with my MMS, receiving or sending. I set up my APN, so I am able to get internet and data, but I left the MMS section alone. So I tried another APN setting with cingular info, but still unable to send or receive MMS. Any help would be great thanks.

Doesn't this mean I have to manually change my network setting to send out MMS?
Update: Okay tried what you said, so it automatically select the AT&T Phone. But still doesn't seem to work.
Thank Sebring5, finally figure it out after doing a little more research.
I guess APN is like you said and that should allow for all internet and data, which I already had. But for MMS portion, I needed to add APN: wap.cingular and finally started to get my messages. Thanks.
Yeah...these are my settings also. Gotta make sure you have an imei the system recognizes as hspa+ for these to work.
Btw... I don't have port 80 set, and I think it's faster that way.

sounds like your apn's arent properly setup. i have the grandfathered unlimited data plan. i have 2 apns. one for data and another for mms. if you have a tiered plan i dont think you need both. follow the directions in the sticky. i had to use wireless.cingular.com as opposed to other noted in the directions for mine to work.
sorry for the sloppy post. tired and cant wait to leave work
I'm sorry, what is sticky?
I have grandfathered unlimited LTE data plan. The cingular setup works for me but the mmsc.mobile.att.net setup MMS not working.
I want you two guys to try these settings....
then send and receive picture messages....
& POST back if they work for you... regardless what data plan you have...
jadeyedwolf says.....
>>""
The next APN generally offers slower data speeds, but depending on your area may not be any different in terms of speed after all. This is the old legacy Cingular APN, and you need to input these settings if you're on a grandfathered legacy plan, otherwise you may not be able to send/receive MMS properly.

So i just swapped over from an iPhone that was unlocked from Walmart and switched to a t-mobile Samsung Note 4. I have two questions here, one, does anyone know the correct APN settings for this phone? I've looked through numerous websites and have found too many different answers. The apn settings i have now work, but i feel like they may stillbe wrong. Two, why when i'm connected to wifi all of my apps load super fast but as soon as I disconnect from wifi none of my apps will load i.e. Instagram, Snapchat, Chrome. PLEASE REPLY IF YOU CAN HELP ME!!! MUCH THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!!
