Root GPRS/EDGE not working for 1.6.3.4

[Leockyen]

Hi,

Just installed Galaxo 1.6.3.4, everything works great, except that gprs/edge capabilities seem to be switched off?? They used to work before the root. I can use wifi, but cannot get any data traffic outside wifi areas.

Help!

Thanks!

Did you check your APN settings ?

Sorry I am a total rookie, how does one do that? (check APN setting). What is APN? Thanks!

APN settings are located in Menu > Wireless Controls > Mobile Network Settings > Access Point Names

you should see your service provider there with a highlighted circle indicating that that is your APN. now, if you don't have one, there are plenty of threads on here and throughout a search engine (or just call your provider to get the APN details). if you don't see anything on that APN screen, hit menu and then "New APN"

good luck and that should be the fix. i had the same problem when i did the upgrade too and was crapping my pants until i found out why.

I also didn't have it (APN settings) in the previous versions of nightly build, but in the recent one it magical appeared. How weird was that?

Anyway like cagefighter wrote, you should input APN settings manually. Try asking your provider via calling them or sending them SMS.

thanks again!

I have recently upgraded to the latest version of Android on my HTC Desire. Since then the GPRS service is not working. I took my phone to the service provider and they tried with the APN settings. The Mobile Network option in Wireless & Networks is grayed out and the message say turning on. Can someone help?
