  • HT4839 Why in the world can i not change APN settings on a no-contract, unlocked iPhone?

    i want to be able to change APN settings on my iPhone. !!!

    thank you      jstrohl  .
    I'm not sure if this will be of help to anybody.
    but I was able to bypass (or trick) AT&T restrictions on APN settings:
    by inserting my old net10 T-mobile SIM card, which allows me access to
    APN settings. While "inside"  the APN settings i SWITCHED from t-mobile to AT&T
    SIM card. the APN settings' window remained open and then I was able to change to my desired APN settings.
    i want to mention that the only issue I had was sending PICTURE messages.
    I had access to the web with Net10's downloaded APN settings:         iapnupdatetfdata.net10.com
    from this website:               http://www.net10byop.com/program.php

    iPad2 - no 3G signal

    Have restored iPad, have reset network settings, have tried turning on aeroplane mode and off again.  Changed apn settings.
    Tried another 3G card - same error.
    Tried this 3G card on another iPad - working fine - no problems.

    UPDATE #2:
    I chatted with Ashley from Apple Support yesterday and she suggested me to restore the phone and set it up AS NEW, NOT restore from backup.
    And it worked!
    Of course, you have to back up everything, but I have my contacts, notes, and pictures on iCloud. All I did was merge them back to the phone from iCloud Setting.
    One downside: you'll lose all text messages. But it's worth it.
    So, thank you, Ashley!

  • How do I manually update APN settings on iPhone 5C?

    How do I manually update APN settings on iPhone 5C please?

    Depends on the carrier.
    My personal iPhone is activated with ATT and not supported/needed with ATT.
    My business iPhone is activated with T-Mobile and the option is available with T-Mobile.

  • My brother used his Verizon Wireless SIM to activate my factory unlocked iphone 5s.  Now, I can't access the cellular data network option to change APN settings for my new carrier.  Already tried configuration utility and factory resets.

    So as the title says, after I got my iPhone 5s from apple, factory unlocked, my brother used his sim card in it for a moment to allow it to be registered and usable on WIFI until I made it to Japan.  Now that I have a data SIM card, I have to input specific APN settings, which are located in settings>cellular>cellular data network, however, cellular data network is not available as an option. I have reset the phone multiple times with and without backups and with and without the new sim in the phone.  I have also used the configuration utility to try to put the APN settings in the phone.  I contacted Apple and they didn't really have an answer as to what i should do.  My brother checked his Verizon account and my phone does not show up as one of his devices, so right now I'm stuck with and incredibly expensive iPod.  Does anyone have any idea what I can do to remedy this?  I am unable to contact Verizon via telephone myself as I have no phone service.  Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

  • How to change Network Settings on iPhone OS 3.1.3 on my iPhone 3G?

    I'm using the iPhone 3G locked with Bharti Airtel in India. Airtel, for a brief time was authorized to unlock the iPhone 3G after the completion of contract period of a year but, now it doesn't.
    Airtel has three network settings but I'm unable to change the settings. I need to change it to use unlimited data plan. Is there any official way to change it? and if not, will it possible to change the settings after I unofficially unlock it? Please suggest.
    P.S. I'm running the latest iPhone OS 3.1.3

    The ability to change the APN settings on the iPhone depends on the carrier file. Basically the carrier has told Apple if they want the settings to be enabled or not. In the case of the iPhone in Canada all carriers do not allow for the APN settings to be changed, and it would appear that Airtel is the same.
    If the iPhone is being used properly with the carrier that the iPhone is locked to there should be no reason to change the APN settings.

    As far as unlocking the iPhone goes the only way it to see if your carrier will unlock it for you. According to Apple you are correct in saying that Airtel does not offer unlocking, but you can always call them to double check.

    Hacking the iPhone is not recommended, and can not be discussed here on this forum. You can search Google, but if you are running 3.1.3 hacking your iPhone to unlock it might not even be an option.

  • Can't change APN settings (greyed out)

    Hi, I have been reading a lot about my problem on this forum and on other BB-forums. I hope someone can help me because the historic forum-answers were quite depressing. . . I bought my new BB Q10 - without a simcard - last week from a well known Dutch webshop. I inserted my Rabo Mobiel simcard that I used in my BB curve. With the BB Curve and this simcard I have been emailing and browsing the internet for 3 years without problems. I can call and text with the BBQ10 but I can't get the internet working. The APN settings were already filled on this BB Q10 - unfortunately not with the APN name from Rabo Mobiel. It says: portalmmm.nl which is probably 'pre-installed' by Blackberry Holland and it is one of the APN names of the KPN provider in Holland. I can change the "portalmmm.nl" into "Rabo" but then I need to set Verification Type to PAP and that is not possible. The Verification field is greyed out and I cannot change it. I tried many ways and even tried to access the escreen:// option (which I couldn't get working) . I made phonecalls to Rabo Mobiel (they say they didn't change anything and no, they use no username and password for APN, only Rabo as account name), to the webshop (no we don't know who installs our Blackberries) and KPN (they gave me the telephone number of Blackberry but I can't get any one on the phone there!). The webshop says: please return your phone. But I know the next BBq10 will probably have the same problem. So can someone - preferably a Blackberry Technician - help me? I would really appreciate it! kind regards, Angela

    hi (93) readers,
    I was wondering if there's anyone who recognizes this, or can make any suggestions? Blackberry helpdesk at Twitter is not responding anymore and only tells me to go to retailer or provider (and they remain completely silent after that)
    Thanx,
    Angela

  • Cannot change the settings on Iphone 6 Plus

    I just picked up my Iphone 6 Plus, and have been having problems changing my settings.  Simple things like ringtone, etc.  Each setting allows me to make a change, but it does not save/store once I leave that page.  Anything I try reverts back to the original setting.
    Has anyone else experienced this?  Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    Ttry a reboot press & hold power button & menu button until
    you see Apple Logo you will not lose any data
    if after reset you still have the same problems.
    i Would return iphone to Apple Store.

  • Why No APN Settings on iPhone 3GS on 6.1.3 ?

    NO 3G data activation!

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2283
    You can view the APN settings on your iOS device in the following location if it's permitted by your carrier:
    iPhone: Settings > General > Cellular > Cellular Data Network
    iPad: Settings > Cellular Data > APN Settings
    Apparrently being able to view the APN settings on your iPhone is not permitted by your carrier. If available previously, was your iPhone hacked/jailbroken?

  • How do I change storage settings on iPhone 4S?

    I set the storage settings to consume all but 4GB for music on my 32GB 4S... Big mistake. I'd like to adjust this limit but I cannot find a way to do so. Do I have ot reset the phone settings? If I do this will I lose my contacts and stuff?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • Change voicemail settings on iphone 4

    When I access my voicemail from a different phone I am stuck with a lengthy process of listening to -- voicemail received at [TIME] from [TELEPHONE NUMBER] -- I just want to skip the TIME and TELEPHONE NUMBER part and just get the message.
    Verizon told me they don't know how.  They sure DO know how to bill me though.

    Voicemail is a Carrier based feature and is thus Controlled / Set by the carrier.

    First are you sure that the phone can use the UK system, the radio frequencies for India and UK might not be the same for the data, I know that BlackBerry is not sending the same model to middle-east/asia or europe as the one for north america

  • Why are the APN settings unavailable with 3.1.3 and 4.0?

    I have an officially unlocked iPhone 3GS. The APN settings menu was available for editing with pre 3.1.3 firmware but has disappeared with 3.1.3 and 4.0. I have spoken with Apple where I was told to restore the phone to defaults and start over, this didn't work. The Apple support papers distinctly say that the APN settings should be available for edit with an unlocked phone OR when the telephone provider allows it. As this is an unlocked phone the APN should be available. I use the phone with 2 SIM cards, 1 AT&T and 1 Telstra (Australia) card because of travel hence having the APN available is a great help. The 2 other phones in our family have suffered the same fate so this is obviously a firmware problem, not hardware.
    Any ideas on our to get the APN settings menu back?

    I am very interested in finding out about this - I am in Canada, and here Apple is selling a factory unlocked iPhone 3GS. I just posted this as a question... You can keep an eye on my thread also...
    =================================
    This summer, I was in east europe with my unlocked google nexus one, and was able to happily use local SIM cards - to enable 3G internet functionality, I just needed to configure APN settings as per carrier spec, and - voila, Internet etc...
    This whole experience has left me with the idea, that for a factory-unlocked phone to be Internet 3g functional, it needs the ability/menu choices to set up custom APN settings.
    Apple Canada is offering an iPhone 3GS (8gb) that is factory unlocked, but unless one is able to set/change APN settings, it's kind of useless for internet...
    Does anyone know - does the Canadian Factory Unlocked Apple iPhone 3GS have the APN settings menu? My own Rogers-locked iPhone 3GS does NOT have the ability to set APN settings... Is the ability to view/set APN settings controlled by the carrier (whose sim card I inserted into the iPhone?)??
