I came across this entry while trying to solve my own "how to MMS without a data plan". I was able to send and receive MMS messages (which turned on the Edge network notification), but apps like Facebook, Google+, and the mobile web browser all complained that I didn't have an Internet connection.

On my phone, the original value for this setting was "default,supl,mms"Īfter this, I tested it.On my phone, the only APN here was named "ATT (wap.cingular)".Make sure "Data enabled" is checked (MMS won't work either if you disable it here!).So after a lot of searching around I seem to have found a way to disable the mobile network for all apps, but still allow MMS to be sent/received using it. But, if I disable Mobile Data altogether, picture messaging (MMS) stops working too. I don't want any random background apps using the Edge network and costing me usage fees when I'm out and about. But, my phone can still use AT&T's Edge network. but that's fine because my AT&T plan doesn't include data. My Nexus One was originally for T-Mobile's network, so it doesn't work with the 3G on AT&T's.

Today I finally decided to break up with T-Mobile and take my number and Nexus One phone to AT&T, as a prepaid phone (tl dr - I'm tired of cell phone ISPs locking people in to contracts and then they can't do anything about it when the ISP changes their plans around). And anyway, this blog post was written when Android 2.3 was current and the steps probably don't even line up 1:1 any more.
