Funny thing is I already made a APN list for everyone a while ago. And this particular one your referring to. If I'm not mistaken WISH777, posted this same one, or something very similar long time AGO!!

FYI : speed depends on your network, where you are at the time, area, city. Are you close to a tower. Those all come into play when checking speed!!

Just my 2¢ :cool:

Sure did LAST YEAR....thats when it wasn't popular as it's everywhere now...lol worked real nice back then too...I hit almost 100 likes it worked for a lot of people back then Probably had something to do with the balance of them and the modems at the time..hipri seems to have a impact as it's telling the network hipri = high priority


I never heard of that one and type up above called mas?...wth is that?
Most of the apn types I found last year I know a tech thru AT&T and he taught me most of those and a explanation of what each one does..as he used the ones I posted. ..so I just shared the knowledge to the family here..

i think that one is supposed to be mms - that is why the guy above was having trouble with that.

I'm on dicksteele's ROM and I can't modify or delete the default APN. Creating a new APN and enabling it did not do anything since it resorted to the default APN. I've tried deleting the APN config file out of system/etc and the APN apps don't work with 4.3. Is there any way to get rid of the default APN so I can try the one wish came up with or is this APN method so old that the benefits are no longer existent?

Thanks,
Jared

Isn't that -83 & -107? Could be wrong, but I believe -83 > -107. Please correct me if that's wrong. :)

Sqlite editor pro

If your rooted you can use sqlite editor to go into system files an delete your default apn's or once you find the apn change the vaule under default from 1 meaning its the active default apn to 0.....when you get app only paid pro version can change apns.....look around enough on this site you can find it free or google the apk cracked ones that work everywhere........to locate your apn you have to have a root explorer installed.....run sqlite....click file at top after you grant it super user permission.........follow.....data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephon.db/carriers......apns are all listed there.
