[Q] Custom MMS APN via Diagnostic application.

[thesmartguyy]

With their recent firmware update, Nokia has updated the diagnostic Application with quite a few new features/options.

Considering the widespread unavailability of the Network Setup App for custom MMS APN, the option that interests Lumia users the most is "APN Settings".

I have tried adding and saving new MMS APN settings with this application, which results in a prompt, "successfully saved". However, the moment you close and re-open this Menu, the settings go missing, and of-course they are not operational, if tested in the messaging app.

Has anyone else played with this New Diagnostic App/Menu? I am currently in the process of trying to set my unlocked Lumia 800 for MMS on Rogers. Strangely enough, the internet over 3G is fully operational without any manual intervention.

So, 68 views and no replies? I heard quite a few people crying about their beloved "giffgaff" not being included in the "Network Setup App". Why don't you try this?

Because it doesn't help.

Because it doesn't help.

And that post definitely helps. If it doesn't work for you, that is a good feedback. Something useful. Rather than me doubting the process that I followed.

Thank you.

Yeah that is a lot of stuff in the diag app that doesn't seem to do anything (there is an HSPA switch that is set too off be default, and HSPA still works for example) for some reason.

I have just flashed my unlocked Lumia with 11501 from navifirm. I entered all the correct settings within APN in diagnostics. I can confirm that my cyan unlocked Lumia still cannot send MMS. The only hope now is GG settings included in Nokia network setup or else MSFT giving all wp7 owners the functionality to set up mms

Hello Everyone,

The new Network Setup App has been released, and it works perfectly. MMS works like a charm.
