Data settings: The option to add a new APN setting is missing

[peaceschool]

Hi I’m using Figo orbit II phone, android 8.1 Oreo Go Edition operating system (OS), on the APN screen there is no option to add a new APN so I cannot continue with my data setting.

Lol good to know.. A little freedom mobile workaround, makes things a little complex but at least it's an option

Hi @peaceschool try a network reset.  it might get the correct APN without manually update the APN

Another way is to factory reset with the PM SIM on the phone, the APN might come down  that way automatically

Can you update your OS to Android 9? If not you have 2 choices:

1. Borrow a freedom sim card which will allow you to add public mobile's APN.
2. Contact customer support and ask them to text you a configuration file to update your carrier profile to public mobile's APN.
