Solavei APN settings for Android Phones


For my cell phones, I switched from T-Mobile to Solavei, a new T-Mobile's MVNO.
Basically it uses T-Mobile network, but offers a better service plan and very interesting referral compensation plan.
Most of T-Mobile phones will work with Solavei sim card, but to use MMS, you need to adjust APN settings.

Here is what I did for HTC, Samsung, and Huawey phones.


Name: Solavei
APN: solavei
mmsc: http://solavei.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc
APN Type: default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri,internet

Other default settings:
MMC:310
MNC:260
APN Protocol: IPV4

Except these, leave as blank for other fields.
Samsung phones may choose internet+mms for APN type.
