Default Changing APN settings - not saving

Whenever I try to add an APN, if I change the MCC or MNC numbers from default, the APN automatically deletes itself when I click save.

Any ideas as to why? I know I have the correct numbers for my service as I've gotten them from multiple sources.

I'm with Bell Mobility, BTW.

its basicly the same reason why it does it in donut, the way the RIL works it isnt set up for CDMA, so changing those settings makes it disappear

did you install it as an update or just extract it, you have to reboot the phone with the androidupdate.tar in your andboot folder then press the D-pad button and update it that way then go into your apn's and change them that way
