Hello all,
The "edit access point" is greyed out for Public Mobile. I have not been able to download pictures when people message me but that is not as important as not being able to get messages in a group chat. It is showing the group phone numbers but no messages. It shows "not available"
The only option showing on the APNs is save or discard. I tried discarding but nothing happens. No option to edit or add new.
I think the settings are not up to date.
I am using an old Umidigi A5 pro phone if that helps to figure out what the problem is.

hi @ragingbull
as said above, try to get a Freedom sim card from a friend and you would be able to unlock the APN edit screen. Good luck.

Thanks for responding hTideGnow and Chalupa_Batman.
I tried a Telus and Speakout sim but it is still greyed out.
There is no option to add another APN but there is a "reset to default" option which I'm not sure if I should try as I still need a functioning phone for work.
I will try to reach out to Umidigi to see if it was locked down as part of production.

hi @ragingbull
so, you cannot delete the current APN and re-create a new one?
what phone do you have ?
some phone requires another sim card to unlock the ability to edit APN. Use a Freedom sim card, borrow one from friends. Freedom sim card can somehow unlock that
