Question
QUESTION: I just purchased an Unlocked and Unbranded Moto Q off of e-bay and would like to set it up to work on my existing AT&T account.  I have transferred the SIM card to the new Moto Q.  What do I have to do to get it to work on the AT&T network (it tells me it can't obtain the network settings and I have to do that manually, but doesn't tell me how). Help!

ANSWER: Hello Darrell,

Here is a link that will help you set the mms settings for your phone these mms settings will enable you to receive pictures and videos on your phone http://www.wireless.att.com/support/deviceConfig.do?content=KB83277.html

As far as the internet settings since At&t uses media net for internet access these settings should work if by any chance they do not work please let me know and I will investigate for you

QUESTION: Thank you, but you have sent a long list of values to enter, but I have no idea where to go, what menu items to select, to get to the place where the data goes, and don't know if it all goes in one place or several place.  Could you please explain?  Thank you.
