    Append APN data into ROM somehow?

    Hi,

    I've been wanting to use Eclair2Cliq to have pure stock 2.1 Android on my phone, but I'm suffering of not having APN, since we can't still read from the SIM card.

    It's a pitty, since I dont care much about any other thing stored in the SIM, so I'm wondering... Is there any way to edit a ROM so you can append your desired APN data into it, not needing to read the SIM card?

    Thanks!

    The APN is in two parts.
    1. the list of various service providers parameters stored in the phone that the phone consults in order to decide what parameters to set
    2. the reading of the SIM in order to see which item in the list to pick.

    On Blur phones (probably all android phones?) the list is apns-conf.xml and it sits in /system/etc.
    But as I said, the phone autodetects the service provider MCC/MNC from your SIM and then uses this info to look up the big list of service providers in that file to set the rest of the parameters. So if that bit is broken, then I am not sure how it can look up anything from apns-conf.xml...
    Regards
