Hello all, I flashed my XA2 to Sailfish last weekend and I'm loving it so far, but I can't send or receive mms messages and none of my Android apps work when on data only. I'm on T-mobile in the USA. This wouldn't be an issue, but I also can't connect to my work wifi, even though the password is correct. My settings are as follows: Data: AP NAME: epc.t-mobile.com PROTOCAL: Dual AUTHENTICATION: None MMS: APN: fast.t-mobile.com (I have tried epc.t-mobile.com as well) PROTOCOL: IPv6 (I've also tried IP) AUTHENTICATION: None PROXY PRT ADDRESS: PROXY PRT: MMS MESSAGE CENTER ADDRESS: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

for one, mms is an issue, (search here and see - "problem downloading mms" is common); sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Besides that, I personally use Ting in the US, which uses the T-Mobile network, and data and wifi work fine. My data ap info is the same as yours, but without the "-", just "epc.tmobile.com". My mms info is totally different. See screenshot here - https://mega.nz/#!splzXapK!XHMhEuN0vB1N7uXAsGbMz37t3FUbQgKraWY7grZquto Note that I got these settings by automatically choosing network, not manually...

i can voice my experience. Don't use fast, use epc. Yes, the XA2 has LTE. Yes, Sailfish supports LTE. No, it does not work correctly. Spotty connectivity, Denied networking. Wi-fi hotspot won't work on the fast APN, but it does on epc.

T-Mobile doesn't need all the MNC and MCC stuff.

For Data, use epc.t-mobile.com and Dual protocol.

For MMS, use fast.t-mobile.com and Dual protocol.

Use http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc for the message center.

And use the -. If it does not say t-mobile then it will fail.

I confirm, same similar issue here on Bell in Canada .I am on ported Onyx and based on what I could read on T mobile reported issue , keep your IPV6 set. Some reported that some how active WIFI connection seame to block the mms trafic. Try also Nofono fom open repos. Somentime for me restarting the comple telephony services fix it but the issues are still random and due ton some of our provider specifics that Sailfish doens not keep up with.
