Hello,
Could someone please help me out with the correct APN Settings for O2 (contract)?
I have searched the web for settings, but they don't seem to work and all are different from each other. Does anyone have the correct settings so that I can use the internet as well as send and receive MMS?
Thanks
Of course, I had exactly the same problem, took me an age to get O2 working OK.
Set up two access points (Seetings>wireless controls>mobile networks>access point names>menu) with the following settings
1st
Name: O2 Internet
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
MCC:234
MNC 10
APN type: default (actually type in default, don't leave it blank)
All others remain as "not set".
2nd access point
Name: O2 MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
proxy: http://wap.o2.co.uk
port:9201
username: o2wap
password: password
server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mmsc: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mms proxy: 193.113.200.195
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
APN type: mms
Save and switch phone off and on.
It is worth noting that I had an iPhone tariff as I changed my iphone for a magic. I spoke to O2 about it when it didn't work and they enabled MMS, still didn't work. We solved it by changing my tariff to a normal O2 tariff, same cost and freebies, just a different name.
That's excellent! Thanks, it worked a treat!
Would be good if people could start adding these in the APN settings on the new ROMS
hi i have been struggling for a week to sort my mms. have internet but not able to send or receive mms. able to bluetooth pics but not able to receive. called o2 and after trying all sorts still no luck. my x10 was unlocked from orange and aqpparently this was the prob. needed unlatching from orange code to access mms settings. bought phone from ebay unable to reach seller and oeange would not deal with me. did a repair of phone thro sony web site which meant was able to receive bluetooth pics but still no sending or receiving via mms. cut a long story short, just downloaded these settings and all working perfect. to me you are a god thanks so much for this info. searching the forum this seems to be a common prob and you have the answer. seen so many of these settings but all vary slightly. i am a very very very happy bunny. thanks again

Can anyone help me?! I got my nexus one today and love it but for some reason I'm not getting any data connection at all. Wifi works fine just no data.
I'm in the UK and on o2. I don't think its the sim card because I get hsdpa on my HTC hero.
Thanks in advance
You put in the correct APN settings?
Go to Settings->Wireless & network settings->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names
You should have one automatically put there called 'O2 UK' or similar (I have one for T-Mobile UK).
Otherwise you'll have to set one up manually:
Pay and go:
Apn: payandgo.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
Contract:
Apn: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
O2 may not have 3G in your area.. hence the value of an unlocked phone .
Also if you've not used that SIM before make sure you have selected a data tariff first.
Ahhh! Thank you so much that worked perfectly....full data connection now
Just thought i'd contribute a little
for those that want full o2 3g and mms working these settings should work:
1st APN
Name: O2 Internet
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
MCC:234
MNC 10
APN type: default (actually type in default, don't leave it blank)
All others remain as "not set".
2nd APN
Name: O2 MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
proxy: http://wap.o2.co.uk
port:9201
username: o2wap
password: password
server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mmsc: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mms proxy: 193.113.200.195
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
APN type: mms (type in mms dont leave it blank)
you'll be sending mms in no time
Oh yeah you might find that pics dont send full size via o2. That's because the o2 MMS servers wont recognise the Nexus so... You can download Handcent SMS and in the app settings you can change the phone's user agent to show as a Nokia N95 or Iphone 3gs.
That'll make picutres go through properly
Hope this helps someone
Dave
non of the settings seem to work with O2 pas as you go , i had similar tourble with HTC Diamond , since the connection was different compared to a monthly plan SIM. any suggestions?
oh i got it :
Name : O2 Pay As You Go
APN: payandgo.02.co.uk
Proxy: 193.113.200.195

leave the rest blank , and voila .
remember this is only for UK O2 pay as you go (Bolt Ons)

Hi all
Had my N1 for a little while now and two main issues remain: Voicemail Notifications (lack of) and MMS (not working). I'm on O2.
Voicemail: I've configured my voicemail number (901) which works when I dial voicemail, but I don't get any notifications through of new voicemails.
MMS: I've got two APN's configured (as per previous discussions on modaco/xdadev). The internet one is working (apn type: not set) but the MMS one (apn [email protected]: mms) appears not to work. Basically I get an error if I try and download an MMS message (download of message was unsuccessful). Doesn't work over GSM or Wi-Fi.
Can someone on O2 confirm what works please?
Thanks

Works for me to send - yet to receive (but this worked on my HTC Magic without any problem).
I also get the voicemail notification icon in my notification bar without any problems.
Have you reset the notification method using the voicemail options menu when you dial 901?
No I hadn't (as it's just worked before on previous phones). I've (re)configured it to display the notification icon so i'll test it tomorrow.
The MMS APN settings were close to what I already had but changing to exactly what you put above doesn't work. Same error.
Do you have the ability to screen grab your APN's so I could compare?
Thanks

No screen grab available for me I'm afraid but I cut and pasted the settings from an archived document I've used to setup a G1, Magic and N1 on O2 without issue. I've also posted them on here and other forums for people with mms problems.
Are you on a monthly contract? If not, settings will be different. Have you confirmed with O2 that your account has mms enabled?
I'll get a mate to mms me tomorrow and confirm that there's no problems for me with these settings.
Reduce the size of the MMS you're trying to send to <300kb... the messaging app doesn't resize them and a lot of networks have size limits.

forum .o2 .co .uk/viewtopic.php?p=144262#144262
I found this link on the O2 forum for when i got my N1. Iv used it to set up my N1 and my Wifes Magic. MMS works, although i remember reading a problem somewhere that because the O2 network doesnt currently support HTC phones, the image resizing is a bit pants. Recieving images come through at something like 160x160... terrible
Sorry for posting link funny, but all settings are right there!
These are the settings i've tried before, but i'll give it another go, thanks

Right - fiddled a bit with my settings this morning after running some tests:
These are definitely working for me (receiving and sending) - note small differences from my previous post..

Thanks, still not working for me. In my list of APN's (two, one internet and the mms one), I have a green dot next to the internet one but nothing next to the mms one. Is that right?
Also what proxy do you have set underneath the APN address? There are two proxy addresses for the APN but you only detailed one.
The only other thing that may be different is that my O2 tarriff is a business one, not residential, but from searching around the settings aren't different.

I had to reset the phone after making these changes to get my mms messages.
Hey thanks a tonne man, my sick boolean search skills turned this up in the top few hits. Really appreciate it!
Thank you for the info when my N1 arrives this week i will give it a go thanks.
Ok these are the only 2 APN's I have setup. I can connect to the internet fine but MMS don't work.

I currently have a picture message in my inbox which says downloading even when I reboot but nothing is happening. Any ideas?
have you tried using the iPhone apns for it i have a hd2 and use em... worms a treat
and where do you find these?
ok after searching online I found a post with the settings for iphone android APN and the only difference I see is the username and password. Tried it and still don't work.
Have you managed to sort this yet, Im having the same issue, tried loads of apn settings to no avail
No still haven't got it working. I can use 3g fine just not MMS
There is a free program on the android market called APN Backup & Restore. It would be nice if someone with working O2 MMS settings could back up the APN settings and put the file on here.
Hey, in case you never got your MMS to work, I have just found these settings and they've worked for me, finally, after weeks of trawling :-

Hmm yeah these settings seem to have stopped working on my phone now .
After first entering them all the failed messages I had queued up started going through. But I just tried sending another one and am getting "Generic network failure" again.
It seems to sometimes send them OK and other times keep failing.
I just tried copying the settings over from my colleagues Dell Streak using APN Backup & Restore. Still not working properly. Those settings are working fine on the streak. I wonder if the problem could be somewhere else..
I am starting to wonder if this could be an issue with the o2 network itself?
Last night at around midnight I was able to send/receive a MMS with no problems both went through very quickly. This morning I try again and I jsut get "Generic Network Failure"
Guess I need to try on a WM build to verify whether is is o2 or an android issue.
I switched back to WM for a bit. Just tried it as you put the post and my MMS in WM works fine.
If anyone stumbles across this post looking for Dell Streak APN settings on O2 just text ...

I tried this and did not recive anything. Also read on O2 forum that carrier does not support Nexus One, so they cant send you mms settings.
EDIT:
I removed two apn settings and left O2 UK (mobile data) and O2 UK MMS (wap.o2.co.uk), dont know if anything is related to this but give it a try
Anyone able to help with this one? MMS not working since I flashed to 2.2.1. All APN settings default from sim card though.....
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Fixed this by selecting UK CSC setting for UK (XEU) as I had flashed with a multu CSC firmware. Lost all my old SMS though!

the main bug i have with android and o2 is that the apn setup loads too many apns by default. Its made more confusing because o2 is one of those networks that needs different settings for data and mms. some use combined servers and such.
When i flash android i get the following apns configured
giffgaff
o2 uk
o2 uk
o2 uk postpay mms
o2 uk prepay mms
tesco
giffgaff *
o2 mms postpay *
o2 mms prepay *
o2 uk mms *
the * ones are mms only apns, so dont have a radio toggle button on the right hand side.
The problem i think is that some accounts are set for data and mms, and others just for data, and some for just mms so i suspect they interfere. (my guess is the two 'o2 uk postpay mms' & 'o2 uk prepay mms' ones, because they are set to be used for data and mms, and ive tested them and they dont work... or the contract one doesnt anyway)
Im on O2 contract, and what i do is delete all apns except
the first 'O2 UK' (with the radio button, and username o2web)
and
'o2 MMS postpay' (without the radio button)
delete everything else, then reboot. mms settings sometimes dont seem to change till reboot, but data apn settings changes do seem to take immediately.
settings for 'o2 uk'
Name 'O2 UK' (anything)
APN 'mobile.o2.co.uk'
Proxy 'not set'
Port 'not set'
Username 'O2Web'
Password 'password'

hehe, yep, those are the two thaht work.
I need help configuring my unlocked HD2 from T-Mobile (US) to AT&T network. I have called HTC and they emailed me some instructions which sort of matched my phone and I was able to enter those settings but it still didn't work. I called ATT and the person I spoke with couldn't even give me their IP address! So I turned to the web... I am not very tech savy, and I just want to know how to set up my internet to use my ATT data plan! My text messages work fine, except I don't get picture mail - which I'm told is normal if you are using an unlocked phone. Could someone please talk me through setting this up! I would greatly appreciate it!
have a look for "connectionsetup.cab" from the regular hd2, it will set it all up automatically for you.

To make sure you have the right expectation, you won't be getting 3G on AT&T with a TMobile phone, just GPRS. So don't expect fast cellular.
Also, I have an unlocked Telstra phone which connects at 3G/H speeds and also gets MMS. I would think an unlocked TMO phone would get MMS too, just slowly. Here are the settings:
