Sprint APN for Motorola Photon

---

Why the heck are these so hard to find? I've googled, checked link after link and always seems they are for USCellular or Tmobile or whatever but not the Sprint ones. And when I fine some that say they are Sprint ones I now know they are wrong because they didn't match these ones I got myself today.

So the good news... I got the APN settings today from a coworker of mine who has a stock Sprint Photon. There were two in there and I recorded everything exactly. Also used APN Backup and Restore from the market to save an XML file of them but for some reason I get the feeling I cannot share the file here <correct me if I'm wrong and I'll attach>. Weird thing is the XML file has 51 listings, 4 say Sprint, but I only saw two in his Photon.

*** For the record this still doesn't fix my problem with receiving mms picture mail using stock messaging app in Jokersax CM9. I use GoSMS and it works just fine.

[edit] I found this mms.apk in another thread but didn't help me either.

When you use gosms, do you manually set this information in the settings? Or does it work by leaving default settings?

So is this confirmed to work? I currently have an APN that works, but if I can get mms's over wifi that would be perfect.

im frustrated as well.

the info listed here contradicts what is in jokersax's cm9 thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1914

and it also contradicts the CM9 fixes thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...32&postcount=3

im sure we'd all love to get this sorted out. eventually it will get done.

cheers mate!

what's your apn?

I wonder if I do a Nandroid restore of the Stock 2.3.4 img I have saved, copied the APN's from there (where I know for sure MMS messaging works) and then applied those same APN's in whatever other ROM I choose to use (currently Jokersax's CM9-unofficial-ICS build) that doesn't play well with MMS, if that would work...

Any thoughts?

I think I'm going to try it out here in a little while. I just got outta work, got a full battery, and plenty of walking to do. I'll test out my theory shortly and post my findings. In the mean time, if someone has any input on that method (or knows it won't work) lemme know!

I'm kinda hoping that works because I hate not being able to receive pics. I can send them out but can't download the ones I get sent. Weird if you ask me lol

Somebody found it for cybik's CM7 months ago and I've been using it ever since, always works except for when you can't edit APNs obviously.

I SBF'd back to stock. Im now on stock ROM, rooted, with DeBlur/DeBloat script - should I keep the APN settings or change to one of these?

Thanks

Can you receive and send pics? If your mms is working there's no need to change the APN

Tried those from cybiks post and they didnt work for me.

.
The ones I posted are from a 100% stock Sprint Photon.

.
Unfortunately they still dont allow me to download mms in Jokersax cm9 stock messaging app but it works fine using GoSMSPro (at it's default sesttings). At this point I assume something is broken in the cm9 build, but heck its not perfect yet anyways.

.
ICS doesnt seem to allow apps to write APNs (like APN Backup Restore app in market), need to enter manually.
