I think you need to reinstall your apn's.

Checked and they are ok.

Try doing a wipe data/factory reset, which should have been done after flashing back and forth between different versions of android. I'll bet where you took it didn't do it. Just because you have APN's, it doesn't necessarily mean they are correct. Speak to your network provider, they can send them to your phone in an SMS, which you read and then delete and then restart your phone.

Are you in Dominican Rep?
The 2 issues may not be related. Make sure you have the correct country set in your phone region as this may effect the GPS function. As for MMS, if you are sure the apn's are correct then check with your provider that the function is enabled on your account. Also make sure you have ticked the option to "use packet data".

I live in Puerto Rico and the compass apps used to work perfect until the i9100UWALP5 upgrade.

I understand that but did you check you were set to the correct region now?

Hi guys,

Recently I have lost my phone and I have all my contacts and confidential data in my phone.(Now I have changed all my details though ).

I have kept lock pattern for the phone to unlock everytime. Is it possible for anyone who finds my phone can access my data? or if they intend to keep my phone.. do they have to format everything so that they can pass the lock pattern or is there any other way without formatting????

Please reply

Cheers

I had the same issue when I was running a Polish ROM in the UK. Once I changed to a UK ROM all was well....
