[Q] Updated to Marvel Rom no data connection

Hi would appreciate your help with the below mentioned problem. I upgraded my LG P970 to marvel rom but have lost my mobile data network.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Check your APN setting, configure manualy or through SMS from your provider.

No data connection with Marvel 11 on P970G
I flashed Marvel 11 last night. I'm loving the ROM, but I'm having the same problem with regard to data.
I'm able to send and receive texts/calls, but no data connection.
Were you able to resolve this? If so how?

Bingo! The APN page was blank. I called my carrier and they supplied me with all the pertinent information and I'm back in business! Little by little I'm figuring this sucker out. Thanks so much for your help. You rule!

I'll thank you anyway!

I fixed the same problem
I had the same problem and fixed it just last evening.
Per advice I received on xda, I looked on: System Settings --> Wireless & Networks (more) --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names
The screen was empty.
While in the Access point Names screen, I tapped the menu button and selected --> New APN. I called my service provider and they gave me all the info I needed to reconnect - IP address, web address, port, etc. There were a good dozen entries, but they walked me through it.
Was rather painless, actually.
Hope this helps. :good:

Au contraire my good androcraze! pk76 is the embodiment of awesomeness!! pk76's wisdom, knowledge, assistance and amazing promptness is only outshone by my callous disregard for social niceties and utter failure at giving credit where it is well due and deserved.
My hat is off for your having pointed out my deficiencies. I stand humbly corrected.
Thank you in all sincerity, pk76!

How to delete AT&T APNs?

Have rooted TMo version with the latest update. The built in AT&T settings are acting up. Does anyone have a way to delete them? All options to edit are greyed out for me.
When I add the APN I need, the phone uses it for a while and then defaults to the wrong setting.

How-To Adblock Without Rooting (mobile data adblock working)

I didn't see this readily available and with many people not wanting to root and trip their Knox counter, I thought I'd show you how to get adblocking without root. This will work on both wifi and mobile data.
--First step would be to install Adblock Plus APK. I got mine from: https://adblockplus.org/en/android-install
--After installing, run the app once and activate filtering. It should now be blocking all ads on wifi only. To enable adblock on mobile data you need to add a proxy to your APN.
--Go to system settings>network connections>more networks>mobile networks>access point names. What you need to do now is go to you default APN and copy down all the settings. We only do this because you cannot edit the original APN it seems. Now create a new APN and enter in the copied settings. The only additional settings you add to add to the new APN is:
---Proxy: localhost
---Port: 2020
Make sure you set the new APN you created as active and adblocking should be working! I have done this on my T-mobile S5. Hopefully some of you will find this useful.

I can confirm this works, just tested it several times. Thanks!

Gonna give this a test.

I had to modify my proxy for wifi and the app seems to be working (I need to find something that has ads, ha)...but I'm unable to modify my AP on my sprint s5.

Yea, I couldnt modify the APN on my S5 either. I just made a new one and copied over the settings.

Not working for me...

Not able to create a new APN on my VZW S5.. Boo

Works with all my wifi, only added proxy and port. Android apps looks nicer now thx, still didn't tested it on mobile data
typed from dark room

Hi guys,
Sometime Adblock Plus crash... quite annoying.
I've decided to root mostly for AdAway ...

it works well on tmobile croatia , just added new apn

Thanks for this, it works, but have to manually add proxy and port to every single wlan network.

It is working for me.

It doesn't seem to work with Verizon phones. Anyone no verizon get this to work? Apparently you can't even create new APN's on verizons s5

Works great. Thanks so much!!!!!!

Works!
And we have to do this settings in every wifi network or just once ?
Thanks

Followed instructions exactly. Filtering says enabled, new APN selected. Still not working for me. AT&T variant S5.

Thanks, it worked like a charm. No root on AT&T and not having some sort of ad blocking was killing me. You are awesome and I hit your thanks button.

I have since rooted my phone so I forget. I think you might have to add a proxy to every connection you use

Back after health issues [GUIDE] [HOW TO] [FIX] MMS sending error on 5.1 to 7.1 AOSP and CM\LOS based roms

Why? a bit of background: With the arrival of Cyanogenmod 12.1 I noticed I could not send or receive MMS messages anymore. This turned out to be the case with all Lollipop 5.1x ROMS Cyanogenmod and AOSP and now on Marshmallow and Nougat. Something had changed in the way it was built that didn't work with my carriers APN. I figured out it was because my carrier uses a double APN so I thought i would try to merge them together and it worked, I now have to do this on every 5.1x ROM i flash so hopefully it will work for you too if your carrier uses a double APN . This seems to work for Telstra users but has worked for other telco users too I can't guarantee it will work for you.
UPDATE
Thanks to @erosco :good: for all his hard work, determination and troubleshooting to come up with a solution for all User's of the GT-I9305, and more than likely other Galaxy models (and possibly other devices) out there that use a separate APN for Internet and MMS. erosco has stated that he added
ro.telephony.mms_data_profile=5
to his build.prop and he was able to get MMS working. @rodman01 has stated he will add this fix for user's in the future rom releases for his roms to have it "out of the box" :angel: :good: ,also I can't thank @erosco enough for finding a proper solution, please hit his thanks button http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help-i9305/enable-mms-5-1-aosp-roms-t3183220/post69843704 for solving this for us. Also attached is a screenshot erosco took to show what the build.prop should look like.
The app used in the screen shot is BuidProp Editor by JRummy you can download it here from playstore --> BuildProp Editor .To make it easier to give support please use that app if you are experiencing issues.
Ok so Basically I have by default a APN for data and another for MMS like in the first screenshot, but the way my APN is set by default it turns 4g to ! (on Marshmallow data doesn't break but just keeps saying sending MMS) When I send a MMS . So what I did was copy the APN information in MMS APN to the MMS section which was blank in the data APN like in the screenshots. The 2 and 3 screenshot is my default MMS APN so I copied that to the MMS section of the data APN like you can see in 4 and 5 screenshot to merge it .leave it as is but just add the MMS stuff were it applies and add MMS to APN type for instance my APN type now looks like this default,supl,mms also don't forget to add MMSC address and do not delete MMS APN ( thanks to @Fritly for the info) or it won't work. If you are still unable to use MMS read and try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67711840&postcount=4063 thanks to @noc.jfcbs :good: and @Wood Man :good: If their posts help please hit their thanks button.
Hope this helps if anyone has anymore questions just ask I'll be glad to help. Thanks to @Anghirrim for testing :good:

Yes on optus a double apn works so you don't need to do it, its for people who can't send mms because of the way there telco (mine is telstra) uses the double apn.
Edit: updated thread with a clearer explanation

Do you have to keep the old MMS apn together with the merged APN? People only receive a link when i send an MMS

Hi, I didn't delete my mms apn but you could try, just make sure you write it down just in case you need it later. Could you post a couple of screen shots of your merged apn for me to look at? Is your data connection breaking? if it's sending than its working so it may be another problem.

Thanks the settings in apn are right. Before I changed mine my data connection would just drop out when I send an mms, but with the merged apn it doesn't and the mms sends but I'm not sure why yours is just sending a link if I figure it out I'll get back to you.

I tried it about month ago on 3 different lollipops roms. Didn't work unfortunately. My friend said the same.

No problem. I'm still working on CM11
And for your question - yes. I saved every time and I tried different combinations with APNs. I hope on Marshmallow it will work (or works yet, I haven't time to check it).
I tried it with CM12 and RR. Great ROMs, but those MMS... :/

OK. If you get sick of KitKat and you do want to use a lollipop ROM with working MMS try 5.0 ROMs like cm 12.0 instead of 12.1, MMS works on 5.0 the problem only started occurring on 5.1. My giude only works for 50% of people for some reason.

I just used this fix. I am also with Telstra. I had already tried using a single APN which fixed the 4G dropout issue however when going to the single APN I would delete the standalone MMS APN. Don't do that. Keep both APNs or else you still won't be able to send MMS.
Thanks

How to use Hotspot and USB tethering for FREE (Sprint, possibly more)

Go into airplane mode, then come out, directly after hit whichever one you want to do (wifi hotspot/USB tethering) and it should work without problems. I have tried and used both. If you have an easier way, please share!

Go to An settings and add dun to the end of the pan type. Works everytime. Not just Motorola, works on Note8 and V20

"An settings"? "pan type"?
Are these typos we have to decrypt? I don't have anything like this is my Network Settings.

Lol if he's typing on this phone I can understand it, I mistype a lot on this one. But I do look back and fix them. You should try the APN settings and see if they work for you. I still gotta stick with the airplane mode method.

No they don't. Maybe in one of them, but not mine.

If you go to sprint.com you'll see on the front page they include 10 GB of hotspot data. After those 10 gigs I believe it's throttled. I've had this for as long as I can remember.

That's not the plan we have. We've had our plan since 2007. Everything family plan I believe

I did mean apn lol. I also used 253gb of data last month.

WARNING about switching to a plan with free 10GB/mounth Mobile Hot Spot: Despite confirming with the Sprint phone jockey that Google Voice carrier integration would still work when I switched from my Everything to a Freedom Unlimited plan; it ended up breaking the integration and "cancelling" my Google Voice account. It took me about five days talking to Google and Sprint; and only after going back to the Everything plan, I was able to get GV working again.

I just acquired a stock Sprint Z2 Force on Oreo 8.0 and the usual Airplane / Quick Hotspot tap fix isn't working like it did on the E5 Plus and Z3 Play, both of which were also running Oreo - the hotspot never activates on the Z2. APN's are all greyed out and locked and there's no way to add another one as of now. I need Hotspot in emergencies only, but I do need it for those occasional situations. Any other workarounds? Thanks!
Update - APN's can be added (not edited or removed) when the phone first reboots, but adding the dun command to the default "internet x.ispsn" APN - under a new APN with all other settings duplicated (as was suggested) - doesn't enable the hotspot as of now.
