Help Unable to save APN

[ashman70]

Just picked up a used Milestone and I need to enter the APN so I can use data on my carrier in Canada (Fido) whenever I go to create an APN, when I am done and click on save, it disappears as if I had never created one.

Anyone know why this is? Milestone is 2.1

Are you trying to change either the MCC or MNC fields? These can't be changed hence the reason why you can't save.

Make sure you have your sim card is installed. And just double check that you're entering the right settings

The MCC and MNC fields demand that I enter values, no matter what I enter, it doesn't save the values. My sim card is installed properly, voice works just fine, just not data.

Maybe it's an Android OS bug ... I have a Galaxy, and my APN frequently goes MIA. It's fixable with a reboot, usually.

Turns out, so I have heard that is has to do with the sim card being old and not a newer 3G sim, will be getting a new sim card tomorrow and try it.
