apn/internet problems

[lioncat55]

for what ever reason i am unable to save an apn, i click save then it goes back to the menu and nothing is there. i know there is a way to sideload(?) a apn but no clue where to get the file or what code to use if any one could help that would rock

thanks

You must ensure all the information is correct for your carrier - the APN configuration will be ignored if it's not valid.

Plus, you seem to be on a CDMA carrier, which technically doesn't use APN's at all. There's some configuration changes that are taking place, are you using any of the testing stuff or just FRX06 unchanged? I guess I'm also assuming you're using FRX06.

yes using FRX06 downloaded it last night and i have the updated RIL no other changes..i know the CDMA dose not use APNs but it seems like there is no other way to get data working(i think have not beed keeping up) also it seems to be a mix of what is used for US Cellular

Don't use the new RIL then. You can put APN's in all day long in fake GSM mode. There's some frameworks/base changes that need to take place before you will be able to properly setup an APN in CDMA mode.

drats i had it set up then redid a bunch of stuff i was likeing the a-gps and the much faster lock

this had been discuss before, if you use CDMA, stock RIL, then MMC,MNC must be 310,995

Much faster lock? What do you mean by that? I'm guessing you're talking about netloc.

netloc (aGPS) is nice, I do like that feature... You can pull the frameworks changes and make your own system image I guess. I did this, worked out pretty well.

What do you need to configure an APN for anyways? CDMA doesn't use them, although we'll be using them for MMS config when it's all done & integrated.

Figured I would bump this, to point out highlandsun's fix. No need to compile, just push these files. What a nice guy!

[lioncat55]

easy enough thanks for the help...kinda i a noob in linux will have my brother help XD

Update: okay so after doing that i still have no internet....and really no clue why now....ugh

when you say "push this" it should look like this right?

mount --bind /sdcard/andboot/sril/framework.jar /system/framework/framework.jar
mount --bind /sdcard/andboot/sril/Phone.apk /system/app/Phone.apk.
mount --bind /sdcard/andboot/sril/libhtcgeneric-ril.so /lib/froyo/libhtcgeneric-ril.so

if not what do i need to do also before trying the new ril there was some thing under settings->wireless & networks->Mobile networks->Access Point Names
now i see nothing there and when i try to save a new one it dose not save it no errors it just dose not save and when i try to restore to default nothing happes

Your mount commands look OK to me, but if they took effect, you should have that APN menu still. I.e., the APN menu is always enabled in this new Phone.apk.

If you're saying the menu is there but your settings disappear, that means you didn't follow all the instructions. You have to set your operator ID in the system properties. Go re-read the posts...
