seeing youre from Vancouver, mobile DNA in Lansdowne has the cyan 920 in order internationally. they said its penta. call them and ask for your color
[Nokia Lumia 920] geoken:
I was under the impression that the network setup apps were no longer required because WP8 finally lets you directly edit the MMS APN.

If you happen to pick up an unbranded international 920 I'd be really interested in seeing if it picks up Wind frequencies.

Unlocking Tethering

Can you add a legit sim from Rogers and turn it on the first time and then use another sim after that? That was supposed to work for the 900.
[Nokia Lumia 920] AngelSpirit:
the network setup app isn't available for WP8 and/or the 920. I don't see it.

But you CAN edit your MMS APN.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Been trying to do that with the Rogers 920. There seems to be no entry for the MMS Proxy, so I can't get MMS working on my Fido account. I've got tethering to work, but can't seem to get MMS working.
[Nokia Lumia 920] AngelSpirit:
I didnt had to edit my MMS settings, and I'm on fido.

I didnt edit anything and was able to send mms and receive mms.

Tethering is working too!
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Really? That's strange - I can't send or receive MMS. I've tried with no edits, as well as with Fido MMS settings but nothing works for me.
[Nokia Lumia 920] AngelSpirit:
Yeah I just retested before replying to you to be sure. And it does work.

Have you tried having your Fido LTE sim in and doing a phone reset, meaning in the about windows phone, returning it to it's original factory set. I remember a trick like that for WP7 (which didn't worked) but I did it for WP8, and it's working now. I'm not saying that's what made it worked, but It's worth a shot if you tried everything else.

What settings did you input for your mms?
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Here are the settings:

APN: mms.fido.ca

MMSC: http://mms.fido.ca

MMSC Port: 80

I couldn't find where to enter the following proxy information in the MMS settings:

MMS Proxy: 205.151.11.13

Yeah, I tried a factory reset too but it didnt work.
[Nokia Lumia 920] AngelSpirit:
there a field called wap gateway url: type in : http://205.151.11.13

and for the port use 80. see if that works.

(I used : http://www.fido.ca/web/content/phonewarranty/configure_unlocked_device_guide&lang=en as a reference)

But again I am not sure why mine would work without customizing and not yours. Did you unlock it?

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

When I edited my mms settings on my interop unlocked focus I used the following settings:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1236103

see my post at the bottom for the provxml settings, took me a while to figure it out.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Mine is not unlocked. And I tried the WAP Gateway and Port settings without any success.
[Nokia Lumia 920] AngelSpirit:
have you tried using port 8080

or using the ip like this: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080

?

have you customized your APN settings too, to have data? If you remove all customized settings does something works? Have you had LTE enabled on your account? do you have an LTE sim card?
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Yup - LTE SIM card, LTE enabled, and I have put custom settings for my APN (using ltemobile.apn for Fido). I have data working, tethering working, but no MMS.

I'll try removing the custom settings to see if anything works and I'll also try the 8080 port.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Removed the custom settings for both the APN and the MMS, and now MMS works! Tethering works too as does LTE.

Just go back to the default settings (i.e. don't add a new APN or MMS settings).
[Nokia Lumia 920] BfA:
It looks like this is true as I can see every other colour offered for sale unlocked, but I can only see AT&T phones with Cyan. Expansys has an AT&T phone that's apparently unlocked according to their website, but I'm not sure if other sites may have access to unbranded ones or not.

http://www.expansys.ca/nokia-lumia-920-windows-phone-cyan-att-branded-239255/

Or you can see they have an unlocked white one for $200 more which I think would be unbranded, otherwise not sure of why there's a $200 difference:

http://www.expansys.ca/nokia-lumia-920-windows-phone-white-238632/

Interestingly enough the Lumia 920 cyanl, yellow and red appears out of stock via AT&T's website so they might be having stock issues as well. I'm wondering if Nokia produced enough? The limited availability is very disappointing considering it was announced two months ago! Anyway, if you're able to unlock the AT&T one it would be worth having a friend order it off contract for you and sending it up as it'll only be $449 plus I think you get a wireless charging pad:

http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/devices/nokia/lumia-920-matte-cyan.html#fbid=OnX4sdY3pXO

Do they have a website? I can't find anything online about the company so that's a little sketchy.

It would be awesome if they had that built in and I think as the comments above say it is. Just as long as no carriers can lock it or do any other bs to it. If the Lumia 920 is penta then they should all be penta whether branded or unbranded. Every carrier having different frequencies is gonna FUBAR everything pretty quick here unless the chip manufacturers can produce one chip for all bands, but that would increase costs and doesn't offere carriers any advantage so I doubt that will happen.
[Nokia Lumia 920] tai4de2:
Tethering works for me on T-Mobile USA, on my Rogers 920.
[Nokia Lumia 920] tokuro:
did you have to enter Tmo MMS setting etc? does everything work out of the box (with tmo SIM) ok?
[Nokia Lumia 920] tai4de2:
It didn't work out of the box.

I had to do the following:

* Cellular Settings --> highest connection speed to 3G (was set to LTE). Without this, SMS and MMS have a variety of oddities such as limiting to 70 characters, not operating reliably, etc.

* Set Internet APN

APN --> epc.tmobile.com (all other fields blank)

* Set MMS APN

APN --> epc.tmobile.com

MMSC URL --> http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

Max MMS size --> 1024

tethering

I'm considering picking one up for use on Bell. Will it work? If so, will tethering work with a specific trick? I'm getting a bit confused by the replies here.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
So far, tethering has been shown to work only on Fido and T-Mobile. I'm not saying it won't work on any other providers, but I don't think there's any information one way or another.

Has anyone been able to get successfully an unlock code for the 45/2012 Rogers version?
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Only from Rogers. None of the third party stores have been able to get an unlock code as yet.
[Nokia Lumia 920] SomethingMore:
Thanks, that's what I thought. I'll probably wait for a 3rd party...

[Nokia Lumia 920] djloewen:
Question for anyone who has one of the original unlocked batch (43/2012): Does tethering work for you on other networks (Bell/Telus/Wind/whatever)?
[Nokia Lumia 920] BlackAura:
Urgh. So I went to Southcenter mall in Calgary and purchased a 920, $550 + tax, and am on the $27 month-to-month plan with no cancellation fees and no activation fee.

Just got off the phone with customer support and they are apparently not able to give out unlock codes until you've had the number for at least 30 days.

I'll try again and see if I can get someone else who can help me. (friend suggested I say the salesperson assured me I could unlock the phone right away for going overseas so maybe I'lly try that).

Edit: On the phone right now with someone different who informed me of the $50 fee and is transferring me to the unlock department.

Last Edit: When I got through on my second attempt this afternoon they wanted me to have a Telus micro sim card to make sure the unlock worked. Unfortunately I didn't have one (old phone was the standard sim size) so they suggested I call back. Setup the microsim after work and called them a little while ago. After 30 minutes or so of sitting on hold I was finally able to get it unlocked for the $50 fee + tax.
[Nokia Lumia 920] tai4de2:
Yes, on T-Mobile USA.
[Nokia Lumia 920] scorpion667:
I had 2 different Rogers reps tell me they can't sell me the unlock codes. Like a flat out no.

Screw it, if a company is gonna make it hard for me to purchase and use their product, they don't deserve my money.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Nebulaeus:
There were six Lumia 920's at Sunridge Mall today. They refused to sell me one EVEN ON A MONTH TO MONTH PLAN WITH DATA. They insisted that they are only allowed to sell the phone on a 3 year contract ONLY. I was in shock. I have never even heard of such a thing before. I went home after work tonight and called Rogers to order one. They again refused to sell it to me over the phone, even with their new $75 plan that has unlimited voice and 3GB of data. I'd rather take a bath in a vat of concentrated hydrochloric acid heated up to 10000 degrees kelvin than ever sign a 3 year contract with them. It is never going to happen ever.

Still debating whether the unlocked AT&T from Expansys will work well enough to justify the almost $700 cost. I am really discouraged at this point :(
[Nokia Lumia 920] BlackAura:
As per my post above, I was at Southcenter and they were willing to do month-to-month. They had a few phones when I called around 2:30pm and even put one aside for me. Hopefully they'll still have some tomorrow!

I had issues unlocking earlier today, but just got off the phone about 10 minutes ago with some great customer service reps (unfortunately you hit general service -> wireless customer service -> unlock department, and they can't skip a step, the first person tried) and they were able to get my phone unlocked for the $50 fee + tax.

Good luck!
[Nokia Lumia 920] oceansaber:
Oh really? I talked to 2 reps too and they both said they could unlock for $50, or just go to some unlocking store and have them do it for you (usually around $20 mark). I heard a rumour that it can't be unlocked until after today (Friday), but wouldn't be too sure.

I was surprised because mine is a Rogers Lumia 920 and I initially thought it was locked but other than the annoying Rogers bootscreen, it's unlocked. Maybe i got one from the initial batch of supposedly unlocked Lumia 920s.
[Nokia Lumia 920] NicholG90:
Unlocked 920

I went into the new Microsoft Store in Toronto today and picked up a locked 920 for $550. Came home and used cell unlocker . net and my phone was unlocked in 2 hours. Way cheaper than what Rogers was charging. P.S. Now running on Wind Mobile in Canada!

Does the "Rogers" logo appear when you turn the phone ON?
[Nokia Lumia 920] ultrabob:
Awesome! Good to know 3rd party unlocks are working. Did you just swap your sim for a micro sim at a Wind store?

And is your 920 from the second batch (45/2012 I believe it was)?

Did you try tethering and MMS - do those work? If so, what settings did you use?
[Nokia Lumia 920] BfA:
Were you able to fit the whole URL in? My stupid Focus S with the Samsung network app says that's too long so I just wanted to confirm there's no field length issues on WP8.

Yes the Rogers Logo does appear on startup. Not a big deal in my opinion

MMS is working using the settings in this thread:

I got my preorder in at $649 Ive been waiting forever though, im running out of patience.
[Nokia Lumia 920] tai4de2:
No length issues on WP8. The T-Mobile USA MMSC is much longer than the one being discussed here, and it can be entered just fine.
[Nokia Lumia 920] HLef:
It was probably an authorized reseller, which isn't actually Rogers. Girl next to me this morning bought a 920 outright and they gave her some dude's business card to unlock the phone. She's in for a treat I think.
[Nokia Lumia 920] denispage:
took me 2 hours to do the process. The guy in the store called 3 times to the customer service to reach a person who knew about the unlock.

it is,difficult but, it works.
[Nokia Lumia 920] rajeshr:
Maybe the batch from MS can be found in the database. I tried cellunlocker after your post, but it's been over eight hours and they have not found a code as yet. I got a note from them letting me that my IMEI (my phone is from the Rogers second batch) could not be found in their first database and that they were going to a backup DB to find it. Still waiting patiently. :fingers-crossed:
[Nokia Lumia 920] BfA:
It is a bit expensive but it looks like those phones are the unlocked unbranded variety. Since they don't have Cyan listed it might be true that AT&T has a worldwide exclusive on it which sucks. Has anyone had any luck unlocking an AT&T one yet because if so based on price that might be the way to go, especially if you can have a friend pick it up there for $450.
[Nokia Lumia 920] NicholG90:
That could be the case, further up the thread someone asked what variant it was and mine is a 44/2012 not a 45 so that might make a difference.
[Nokia Lumia 920] geoken:
I picked one up from the MS store in Yorkdale today. Cellunlocker just emailed me back a couple of minutes ago letting me know they cant unlock
[Nokia Lumia 920] Aryanos:
Has anyone gotten this to work on Bell? I thought I had it working before but now the internet is not working and I made a change on the Bell website to swap out the phone IMEI. If anyone has, what settings do you have set for the APN and MMS APN?
[Nokia Lumia 920] dazza9075:
has anyone tried doing it themselves? ive been messing about with a few tools for some other stuff, RevTools, QPST, CDMA Workshop etc and whilst ive not tried it as my Focus S is already unlocked, there do appear to be methods of unlocking phones...

food for thought, as I said though, I haven't tried it, it just looks like there are options for doing it on some phones
[Nokia Lumia 920] driftnut56:
The first batch of 920's are unlocked. I bought one that was marked 45/2012 and it's locked. That means week 45 of the builds FYI.
[Nokia Lumia 920] ultrabob:
Did they say to try again later? I picked one up from an MS store today as well - 45/2012 build. They haven't contacted me yet - not sure if there will be any reply until Monday since it's not a business day.

Cellunlocker couldn't unlock my 920 either - mine was from Rogers directly. They said to try again in a week as their database gets updated weekly.

Just unlocked mine today through cellunlocker. Bought it through Wireless wave and it's a 45/2012. Code took about two hours to generate but it worked.

[Nokia Lumia 920] Chilly2112:
Mine is a Rogers Lumia 920 from/built 45/2012. Was NOT able to unlock via cellunlocker(looks to be hit or miss from comments on this forum), so I paid the $50 and got it unlocked via Rogers.

LTE seems to work rather well. Internet tether works only occasionally (seems to be hit or miss when I go to toggle. Feels like a buggy feature), and while I can send MMS, I cannot receive any MMS at all (even with proper MMS APN setings).

APN Settings I use;

internet APN

APN: isp.telus.com

Proxy server (URL): 74.49.0.18

Proxy port: 80

Left everything else blank. Got LTE speeds of 29Mbps. :good:

Hey guys, besides the Rogers Logo on the boot screen, what "crapware" they putted in the phone?

Any of these apps build into the ROM so you cannot uninstall?
[Nokia Lumia 920] Chilly2112:
Only one application, which is Rogers "My Account" application. I was able to uninstall it without issues. There was some bookmarks in Internet Explorer as well, but they too I was able to delete. :good:
[Nokia Lumia 920] cao0215:
try it again, i still can not get internet sharing. :(:(
[Nokia Lumia 920] SomethingMore:
So I went to two Rogers locations in Calgary on Saturday.

Market Mall - said no outright sales whatsoever for at least two weeks.

North Hill Mall - said I could buy it outright for $650 (!!!) and Rogers would NOT be able to unlock it for me (???).

I may try Wireless Wave today, but this is getting silly.
[Nokia Lumia 920] ultrabob:
I also was unable to get an unlock from cellunlocker as well (took them all weekend to get back to me). Torn between waiting another week and hoping their database gets updated with my IMEI, or giving in and throwing $50 at Robbers :( Kind of avoided giving them any money already by buying it outright from the MS store :P

Chilly - did you have to go through all the hoops and set up an account, buy a sim and put in a certain amount, on top of paying the $50 to unlock? And did you just call Rogers or did it in-store? Thanks.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Lethbridge:
So I bought mine from Rogers as part of the first batch that was unlocked (43/2012).

When I first set it up, the internet sharing was working, but has stopped. Tried using the method by chilly2112 but sharing still not working. I am going to try and reset my phone and start over, will let you know what happens.
[Nokia Lumia 920] SomethingMore:
Does the MS pop-up store in Edmonton carry this phone?
[Nokia Lumia 920] ultrabob:
Yes they do. They came in last Friday night, and I think I picked up the first one on Saturday. They didn't have anything on display at the time - I think they said they were setting one up, possibly for display? They had to run to the back and grab me one. They also have the HTC 8X in stock, both Rogers and Bell models.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Lethbridge:
So I reset my phone and used the settings from Chilly2112, downloaded the keyboard but internet sharing still won't work for me on Telus. I was able to get 4g speeds and receive mms (didn't try sending one though), but I had mms working before, the only thing I am missing is internet sharing.
[Nokia Lumia 920] cao0215:

I did this and got internet Sharing working for a short time, but then lost Data shortly after.

When I first got the phone Internet sharing worked as well, but has stopped. I should also add that I was able to connect the phone to my Surface through bluetooth originally, but now I can't do that either, it will connect for about 5 seconds that automatically disconnect.

As far as the MMS settings, those are exactly what I am using and they are working for me
[Nokia Lumia 920] tomcahill:
I have mine working on Bell. Used pda.bell.ca for the data APN.

Tethering is not working for me.
[Nokia Lumia 920] tokuro:
hey, thank you. I ended up driving up to Vancouver to get a Rogers pay as you go SIM & obtained SIM unlock code ($50 CAD) today. After making changes above, all works with TMO sim.

I did noticed that 920 seems a bit slower to pick a carrier compare to 810. Other than that, all good.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Chilly2112:
Bought the phone on month-to-month couple days ago. After trying cellunlocker failed, I called into 1-888-ROGERS1 and went to the wireless customer service(account changes/information) option.

Asked to unlock, said they'd have to transfer me to "Customer Relations" department. A very nice gentleman just asked me for my account details and IMEI number to verify I was eligible to unlock. Once he verified I was, he 3 way called with the "Unlock" department, at which point I got my unlock code. I thanked them and then called back minutes later to cancel the account.

Oh, tether no longer works reliably on my phone. :crying: To be honest I think its a bug, because if I toggled it on and off, over and over again, eventually it started working again, but then it stopped. Also having issues receiving MMS (I can send MMS no problem). I can live without both features until I start traveling again next summer. That should give Nokia and/or Microsoft plenty of time to fix it :p
[Nokia Lumia 920] richhy:
Are you still using isp.telus.com or do you us sp.telus.com as your APN settings for data?

I was able to get tethering to work once using isp.telus.com and the foreign keyboard trick but then it killed my data after a while. Now I have to use sp.telus.com to get my data working.
[Nokia Lumia 920] cao0215:

[Nokia Lumia 920] SomethingMore:
How much did you have to pay upfront? I assume $549 + tax. Did you have to pay for the first month as well? Could you pick a plan with no data? Thanks!
[Nokia Lumia 920] ultrabob:
Thanks for the info, Chilly. I gave in and got Rogers to unlock. Simply could not wait to start using the 920! I ended up getting a friend to unlock mine through his account. Lots of waiting, but all the reps and unlock team folks were very courteous and including all the wait time it took about an hour.

All-in-all, $549 from MS Store + $50 (and tax) for my unlocked 920. Just a heads up for folks - if there's an MS Store or Holiday Popup Store near you, they'll give you the phone $549 hassle-free. My experience with many of the Rogers authorized resellers is they won't sell outright, but want to get you onto a contract or some kind of expensive month to month (smartphone) plan for the $549 pricing.

Same issues here - on Wind. Data and MMS works. Tethering does not. Tried the keyboard trick. Also seems a little slow to pickup the network as well? After a reboot, it takes a while before it connects to the network. Had no such issues with my unlocked HTC HD7.
