I’ve been searching this for a great many weeks. I recently purchased the new HTC Hero from Hong Kong. (not available in mainland China yet).
When I went to call up China Mobile to get some sort of instructions I was not given much help. With much messing around and finally a generous shop owner on Hongmei Road helped me figure out these details.
So, In your HTC Hero you need to go to your ‘Mobile Network Settings’ page and select ‘Access Pint Names’
Then, these are your details:
Name: (whatever you want)
APN: cmnet
Proxy: 10.0.0.172
Port: 80
Username: <Not set>
Password: <Not set>
Server: <Not set>
MMSC: <Not set>
MMS proxy: <Not set>
MMS port: <Not set>
MMS protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 460
MNC: 02
APN type: <Not set>
Once you have those details inserted and saved. Enable your Mobile Network and you should see a new icon along the top of the screen for the ‘Edge’ system. And if you’re anything like me, you’ll get excited.
Oh, and the new HTC Hero kicks ass.
