As near as I can tell, CDMA doesn't actually use MCC/MNC, so this is just something that got hacked in to emulate it.

Anyway, apns-conf.xml just holds the defaults. When you add your own APN, it's the same thing as if it had read it from apns-conf. So whatever's missing there, it shouldn't do any harm.

I am curious how real CDMA android phones do it... do they even have an APN section in the settings?

I'll post the hero's apn's in a little bit i have access to one.
