Nitdroid 0.09 APN won't save
 
Hello i have a problem setting APN on Nitdroid 0.0.9

The APN won't save after i press "save APN"
I tried changing the values many times but it still doesn't work

I've only seen one similar problem in Nitdroid forum, but the solution (to input as few as possible) doesn't work for my case..

Anyway to fix this?

thanks

Even on gingerbread this still happens!:confused:

Let me get this clear,

1. I go to Settings > Wireless Networks > Mobile Network Settings > Access Point Names
2. Then an empty screen with "APN" on top left shows up
3. Options > New APN
4. I enter the values for the provider
5. Save APN
6. Back to the empty screen in #3, no APN just blank screen

what am i doing wrong???

I'm sure you checked the nitdroid forums but android forums might be another good resource. I know that some Vodafone guys were having problems and I believe they said something about leaving the settings as default (or part of it default) and it worked.
You might try to save any APN and then edit it later to reflect the actual APN values.

Even i did reset to defaults and then not able to add an apn. Lucky that I made a backup using backup everything app in nitdroid. Please install the app and then copy the following file into backupeverything folder in your sdcard (it should be mydocs folder in emmc). remove the .txt extension( I was not able to upload without the extension). open the backup everything app and select restore. select apn alone from the list.

Hope the apn should be added. Please edit the same as per your requirement. Let me know. This is experimental and I am trying to help you

Thanks, but i can't find the backupeverything folder anywhere.
I put it in MyDocs/backups/backup
but it won't work when i restore it in backpeverything so i guess that's wrong folder

Try to use backup everything and create a backup first. It will create all the folder structure(choose all the items to be backed up like sms, mms etc). Then go to backupeverything folder in mydocs
You can find the apn folder in it. copy the file atached by me in that folder.

No wonder i couldn't find it.
It still doesn't work unfortunately, the backup app restores the apn,
(it works because it doesn't say nothing restored)
But when i go to mobile networks > APN i still get the blank APN screen, there's no apn files that was supposed to be restored..

Isn't there anyway to do this manually?
Where's the folder where nitdroid stores the apn settings anyway?

Re: Nitdroid 0.09 APN won't save
 
Is there any file in the apn folder. If yes delete all the files. copy the file which i gave you. Remove the .txt extension and use restore. it should work.

Actually after i made a backup, there was no "apn" folder so i had to make one, the name is apn right?
Which is strange, because I'm pretty sure i already ticked apn ..all options were ticked..

Well, there were 4 minimum values that must not be blank.
Name, APN, MSC and MMC so i had to put a number on those 4 or else it gives me "..must be 3 character or less!" error
You can see it in my video.

honestly dont touch any other setting other than name and apn like i said before. leave everything else as they are mmc proxy port everything . just change name to vodafone UK and apn to wap.vodafone.co.uk and save this will work if on vodafone.in your video you change other things aswell as name and apn DONT JUST CHANGE NAME vodafone UK
APN wap.vodafone.co.uk lock slider on side and save

this works for me on 0.0.8 0.0.9 and gingerbread versions and i have 0.0.9 and gingerbread running of partitions 5/6 on emmc respectivly with maemo in a triple boot setup and can use 3g on both nitdroids with these settings

Wow at first i got "MCC field must be at least 3 characters!" error, so i put in random number in MCC and MNC (510 and 10), save it but it still doesnt work.
But after i reboot, IT'S THERE AT LAST:D

Thanks alot, i'm gonna try editing it now.

Aw man, still no luck, i tried to edit the vodafone APN that showed up, then save it, but it's gone :(

I've been trying to recreate the condition to make it appear but i can't seem to do it again...

look just set the settings as i said before and save dont try and edit it afterwards because it will disappear again if it's listed under apn it should work when i change my setting to those on the wiki page i lose my apn put it back to the one's i mentioned and its back and working again. so litteraly change NAME and APN and just leave the others as they are and save

Create new APN doesnt appear in my menu :(
Just a blank page, anyone know whats up there?

Re: Nitdroid 0.09 APN won't save
 
I do have the same problem...
One of my wild guess in permission on mmc where the file of APN is saved; could be one of the reasons that APN is never saved successfully.

Help anyone...

deny,
Try to add one accesspoint with "wap.vodafone.co.uk" as the APN save it, then Menu>NewAPN then create another APN based on the local operator. Then activate the corresponding APN according to your local network operator Menu>Save. Then Reboot.
