APN Backup & Restore (v. 1.91) Разработано Ritesh Sahu |
A simple App to backup and restore APNs (Settings to connect to the internet with the mobile connection). The backup is stored in the /sdcard/APNBackupRestore folder.
NOTE: Starting with Android 4.0/ICS, 3rd Party apps don't have access to write APN settings, hence this app no longer works for restoring APN backups as a normal app. You can convert it to a System app using Titanium Backup on a rooted phone and use. Instructions:
- Open Titanium Backup
- Go to backup/restore tab
- Find APN Backup & Restore on the list
- Long press on the app when you find it
- Select Convert to system app
- Open APN Backup & Restore
- Click menu and disable ICS check
Thanks to Joaquín for the instructions.

|
[2012-12-19] A Google User: Great Make sure you use titanium backup to make this a system application if your using android 4.x. It won't work otherwise! |

|
[2012-11-06] A Google User: Please Let us see them |

|
[2012-10-10] A Google User: Works!!! Used on JB without any problems, was able to get MMS working. Don't blame the dev if you can't follow instructions and have no clue how APNs work. |
|
[2012-10-08] A Google User: Crystal I wasn't able to send or receive pics because I wasn't able to delete the factory apn's thanks to this wonderful app I can now send pics of my son thanks for this app |
|
[2012-09-15] A Google User: simple and it works i have sms backup from this dev, and this is as simple as that good job! wished it does wifi too.. |
|
[2012-09-04] A Google User: Can delete any APN |
|
[2012-08-27] A Google User: Excellent I use this app 2 fix my picture messaging settings on my galaxy s 3. It did the job and I got my picture messages going again. |

|
[2012-08-22] A Google User: Works! This app rules! |
|
[2012-08-18] A Google User: Not working Not working even with the written workaround |
|
[2012-08-17] A Google User: Worked like a champ! Great App! Too bad ICS is taking away freedom to control ones own phone - I suspect it's for "our own good" though... not! Thanks for the great app! |
|
[2012-08-15] A Google User: Wonderful Love this app, definitely will come in handy! |
|
[2012-08-06] A Google User: COMMON SENSE This is a great app if you need to send/receive pic messages for a custom rom that was made for a different carrier. (Flashing verizon rom on alltel in my case.) Just download apn zip file for your carrier and put the zip in this apps folder then delete other apns and restore the one u want. It does work for rooted phones and ics with instructions for ics above. Please study these things before putting negative comments. |
|
[2012-08-02] A Google User: Suggestion for improvement ? Would it be possible to add a 'Filename Date Format' option, like you have in your other very useful 'Backup and Restore' apps ? |
|
[2012-07-25] A Google User: Don't work Doesn't work with ICS |
|
[2012-07-24] A Google User: Apn backup and restore Good |
|
[2012-07-22] A Google User: Just follow the instructions. It tells you how to install it for ICS. I did it and it has worked every time. |
|
[2012-07-22] A Google User: Excellent works for ICS This works with 4.0, use titanium backup or root explorer push to system apps, open up apn backup and restore & hit menu, disable ics check. Must be rooted though! Excellent app! |
|
[2012-07-20] A Google User: Greatest Best thing since sliced bread :-) |
|
[2012-07-13] A Google User: says it can't read/write APNs on Samsung devices This makes little sense on my SGS2, cause its rooted... your software can just request super user access and read/write anything... Still a good idea, but support for rooted phones would make sense, no? |
|
[2012-07-12] A Google User: Awesome. I use it to get rid of my APNs everytime im on donut, since i dont have data. |
|
[2012-07-11] A Google User: Yah good |
|
[2012-07-11] A Google User: Absolutely marvelous Was desperate to remove apn this app rocks |
|
[2012-07-07] A Google User: Not Android 4.0 Compatible This app is not 4.0 compatible. Uninstalled for this reason. |
|
[2012-07-04] A Google User: Yep Yep |
|
[2012-07-04] A Google User: ICS google instruction to make it work on ICS. Wonderful. Root phone only. Any file explorer with root access will do. Easier than Ti-backup. Simply download the apk from the author site and place it in System/App folder. Change permission to the same as all other under system/app. U might need to reboot. I use ES explorer. |
|
[2012-06-30] A Google User: Straight talk love This app made it possible for me to use my custom straight talk Apn! |
|
[2012-06-30] A Google User: Works |
|
[2012-06-28] A Google User: Works on ICS Make it a system/app You should import make system app in the UI because the everyday user doesn't know how to do this good work |
|
[2012-06-27] A Google User: Gr8 for backing and restoring your apn's |
|

[2012-06-15] A Google User: Thanks Certain it would have helped but I have 4.0 so it didn't work |
|
[2012-06-15] A Google User: Does Like Droid, this does. Backup APN, check. Restore APN, check. Ad free, check. What more is there? |
|
[2012-06-12] A Google User: Nice Worked perfect if you flash custom roms like me. |
|
[2012-06-09] A Google User: Good but not enough This app should allow the user to select which apps to backup. I suggest that the publisher should modify this app so the user can select which apps to backup. |

[2012-03-13] A Google User: Ads ads ads Stop with all the permissions! |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Yeah Whats up with the permissions? |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Great Thank you ! |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Great app |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Adverts were OK! A good app. I had no problem with the adverts being added. The developer has a right to make some money from their app. At least they weren't push notifications (this would have been unforgivable). Oh well, the adverts have gone again, so everyone should be happy now (and grateful). |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Great app App does what it says tin, and developer is very responsive to issues/concerns. As a note, I don't mind ads in free apps, however there are ways of adding them without needing my phone's identity. :) |
|
[2012-03-13] Ciaran: Ads ads ads Stop with all the permissions! |
