    I have a Duos sent from Europe, and a SIM card with prepaid ATT from US. I am in US. The data wouldn’t work, and we found the APN wasn’t uploaded from SIM – it was blank – no APN. The guy at Radio Shack printed out APN and tried to install it, but it wouldn’t save. I installed the APN given here and it was slightly different than what he had. It DID save and I activated it- but still NO internet. One question I only typed “Internet” in for APN TYPE – I dont think that is the issue but it was the only thing I wasn’t sure of in the entering process. Also, I had another Duos from the same place (before I dropped it in the ocean) and had no problem. It all uploaded from SIM. Help Thanks

      Very easy to follow instructions, I was online within minutes on my Verizon gs3 unlocked and using go phone by AT&T.
      Thank you so much!

    Thanks for the settings, but I tried this just now (Jan 2014) and they didn’t work. Called AT&T and got helpful advice (although it would be easier for everyone if they just posted this somewhere obvious on their site). These did work:
    APN: phone
    MMSC: https://mmsc.mobile.att.net
    MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
    MMS Port: 80
    MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
    MCC; 310
    MNC: 410
    (Everything else just left ‘not set’ or whatever).

      Thanks Trevor,
      My internet wasn’t working unless I had WiFi. When I entered these values in my APN it worked like a charm for my Galaxy S3. Amazing how good it feels to see the “4G” show up when it hadn’t been there before.

    • Peter

      Awesome Trevor. AT&T store tech couldn’t help and push me to T-mobile my old provider and tmobile send me to Samsung and Samsung send me back to AT&T. I called AT&T tech support, the gale I spoke to is clueless. I was fed up and decided to do my home and found your info. And my S3 is working now. Thanks again!

  5. Stu Piddasol

    I’m confused…… obviously….? I have Samsung galaxy s3 Verizon phone, with AT&T Sim , trying to use Straight talk monthly data plan. At this point I have accomplished phone service to/from my phone without complaint, and SMS texting also seems to work. Internet works but only when WiFi is used. MMS text and web browsing is otherwise not happening. I have tried using APN settings listed on Straight Talk , several forums, as well as this site. Tell me the truth Miss Daisy !! I can handle it…. is it me? my phone? my settings? Please help!

  6. Dan

    I have a galaxy s3 sgh-i747. I have had st for two months. I have not been able to send or receive photos on messages. I have tried every apn setting I could find still nothing. Do you think it is the sim. I use this for business and it is costing me money.

    • apnsettings

      I Dan, have you tried setting up the APN Settings for straight talk? there is a post in the blog that address the issue you are mentioning

  7. Shirley Cunningham

    Need help, I purchased a off brand 3G, Note 8 online, having a hard time getting the WIFI to work, it only works when I am at home. also when I get a message with MMS in it, it will not download, what do I need to do? I’ve tried the APN listed above and nothing. I’m about at the point where I’m thinking of sending the phone back. I really like the size of the screen. HELP!
