Additional Notes

What are APN Settings

Access Point Name or APN settings tell your smartphone how to connect to the Internet and send messages. If your APN is not set correctly, you may not be able to connect to the Internet using Cellular Data, Send or Receive MMS picture messages, or Send or Receive Group Text Messages

APN Settings will NOT fix problems making phone calls, sending text messages, get a 2G, 3G, 4G, or LTE connection.

Which APN settings Should I Use?

You can look up the APN settings for your Tracfone account here: Looking Up the APN Settings For Your Tracfone Wireless Bring Your Own Smartphone Account.
Note: This only seems to work for Tracfone customers using the Tracfone AT&T or T-Mobile network. If you are using Tracfone’s Verizon network, try the APN settings above.

Your APN Settings May Be Hidden

On some smartphones, you may not be able to see the APN settings page in your phone’s settings app.  For most phones using Tracfone’s Verizon or Sprint Networks the APN page is hidden but the should be set automatically. For Tracfone’s AT&T network, the APN settings on the iPhone are hidden.

You May Not Be Able To Edit or Delete the APN Settings On Your Phone

Some Android phones will not let you edit or delete your APN settings regardless of which network you are using.

    I just went through maybe 10 APNs listed on some other website with no luck (quite a long time typing it up and restarting every time). This worked right away for me! Huge sigh of relief… was researching other carriers and the possibility of returning my new phone. If I ever have problems with APN again, I’m coming here first.

    I have a ZTE majesty pro through straight talk. I know my son and have it set correctly. My problem is it seems that my phone is connected to a sketchy net work and it seems that everything I do on my phone is being transferred to some computer. My service is thru at&t. I have tried resetting my son several times but end up on the same net work. Is there anything i can do to correct this other than sticking it under someone’s tire? I do not have internet in my home or wifi. I think maybe someone hacked my phone and some how connected me to their server or home computer. Please help me if you can.

      I am not sure what leads you to believe your phone has been hacked but I assume it is possible. I am not a security expert but I think your choices are to either buy s new phone and transfer your service or do a full factory reset on the phone. A new phone would be safer. Is it possible you just installed a bad app?

    Do you have the T-Mobile APN settings?

    • Bob Thompson | |

      My guess is they the same as the ones used for Straight Talk, same company. See Straight Talk APN Settings. If you already have an active phone number with Tracfone t-mobile you can look them up here. https://www.tracfone.com/apn

      If possible, please let me know if they match the Straight Talk one’s so I can add them to the page here.
