Can't set my APN settings properly (Public Mobile, Canada)

Hi. I tried the updated version you suggested, and I can confirm that I also still can’t access data. I will to find another sim card carrier, but in the meantime is there some other information I could provide to help you?

Hi @franknarf8 and @Faith_Jones - here is a new test build. Not much has changed - just a cleanup of the apns-conf file.

This is the only entry we have added:

<apn carrier=“Mobile Internet”
mcc=“302”
mnc=“220”
apn=“sp.mb.com
type=“default,mms,agps,supl,fota,hipri”
mmsc=“http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc”
mmsproxy=“74.49.0.18”
mmsport=“80”
mvno_type=“gid”
mvno_match_data=“4D4F”
/>

I just realized that gid is uppercase in your screenshots. We had added it as a lowercase. Let me know if the new build works or not. Can create a new one with uppercase “GID”

I just tried the newest update, but no luck. Data is still not working.

This is another attempt - Build #3.

Here is the apns file that is in there. apns-conf.xml (498.9 KB)

@franknarf8 - is it possible for you to extract the apns-conf.xml file of this phone and share with us? Typical location is

/etc/apns-conf.xml … OR … /system/etc/apns-conf.xml

I tried the newest build, still no luck :frowning:

We need a working apns-conf file. @franknarf8 - could you get that file from your Nexus phone or ask on the forums?

Hello Sharad,

Sorry again for the delay; I lent my phone to my girlfriend while here Teracube can’t connect to the internet :S.

So, you will find the full apn.conf.xml I found in my Nexus 5X here : https://github.com/ni-fgenois/teracube-apn
(I can’t link xml files to this issue, only photos it seems, so you will find them in this git repo)

There seems to be 3 entries of possible importance in that file :

<apn carrier="Mobile Internet"
      mcc="302"
      mnc="220"
      apn="sp.mb.com"
      type="default,mms,supl"
      mmsc="http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc"
      mmsproxy="74.49.0.18"
      mmsport="80"
      mvno_match_data="50"
      mvno_type="gid"
  />

  <apn carrier="Mobile Internet"
       mcc="302"
       mnc="220"
       apn="sp.mb.com"
       type="default,mms,agps,supl,fota,hipri"
       mmsc="http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc"
       mmsproxy="74.49.0.18"
       mmsport="80"
       mvno_type="gid"
       mvno_match_data="4D4F"
  />

<apn carrier="PC mobile"
      mcc="302"
      mnc="221"
      apn="sp.mb.com"
      type="default,mms,supl"
      mmsc="http://aliasredirect.net/proxy/mb/mmsc"
      mmsproxy="74.49.0.18"
      mmsport="80"
      mvno_match_data="50"
      mvno_type="gid"
  />

Hope you find what we need in there!

Take care

Hello @Sharad ,

Any updates on this issue?

Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks

Hi, I was just wondering if there was any more news on this issue?

Thanks, Faith

I’m sorry we have not made much progress on this recently. Somehow our modified apns-conf.xml is not being read at all. We have not given up though - give us 1-2 more weeks.

Hi,

Is there any more updates on this issue, or should I just be looking to switch provider at this point?

Thanks,

Faith

We are testing another build. Should have something for you in 1-2 days.

Hey Sharad,

Should I just change Internet provider? (This is kind of the 3rd month I’m paying for data without being able to use it…) (Lol, my girlfriend, our families and our friends are leaning quite heavily on the teasing as of late XD)

Can you suggest some Canadian providers that are supported by Teracube?

Thanks

Hi Frank - here is the new system image (with APN settings from Lineage OS - has updated Canadian carrier APNs). Try it out.

Here is a thread on Canadian carriers that are working for other Teracube users. One user reported via email about Telus being fully compatible with Vowifi and VoLTE.

I’ve just tested the new build and it works!!!

Sharad, you and your team are amazing! Thank you and please forward my thanks to those who worked on this!

Haha, just when I was starting to lose hope, thanks a lot for not giving up on us :slight_smile:

So, next, how can I set this up so I don’t have an unlocked phone anymore? (some apps require android not being unlocked)

Thanks again and have a nice day!

Great - thanks for testing and being patient :slight_smile:. Credits go to @robert :slight_smile:.

We will have to wait till our next official release for that. SW7 was released just now and we are in the middle of code transfer - hence might take some time for the next build. Hopefully this is not a big issue for you.

Thanks @Sharad and @robert, the new fix works on my phone too :slight_smile: Finally I can have mobile data again!
