Re: [android-developers] Re: How to set the preferred APN through code?

Thanks Sayed for the sample code. But unfortunately even that didn't work.

The 'insert' i.e. the line:

========================================
getContentResolver().insert(PREFERRED_CONTENT_URI, values);
========================================

always returns null.

I'm using 2.3.3. Looks like there is something missing.

We can at least change the individual APN values, right.

 

i.e. use the following line of code:

========================================
getContentResolver().update(Uri.parse("content://telephony/carriers"), values, blah, blah, blah);
========================================

Otherwise APNDroid won't work.

 

 

Thanks

The permission still exists, but any attempt to write the APN will fail.

Presumably the carriers put pressure on Google to block this capability...    too bad.
