Setup guide

How to enter APN settings

1
Open Access Point Names
Go to Settings → Network & Internet → Mobile network → Access Point Names. On some phones it's under Settings → Connections → Mobile networks.
2
Add a new APN
Tap + (or the menu → New APN) and set APN to data.lycamobile.co.uk. Fill any other non-blank values from the table above and leave the rest as default.
3
Save and select it
Save from the menu, then select the new Lycamobile APN and toggle Airplane Mode on for ten seconds so the change takes effect.
Tip
After saving, toggle Airplane Mode on and off for 10 seconds. This forces the phone to re-register with the network and pick up the new APN.
Troubleshooting

Common issues

Data works but MMS won't send. Check the MMSC and MMS proxy values exactly, including port 8799, and make sure mobile data is on. Lyca's MMS host configuration has shifted with its network host, so this is the most likely value to need verifying on a live SIM.

No data on an unlocked or imported phone. Enter the APN data.lycamobile.co.uk by hand and restart. Unlocked phones often skip the automatic setup, so the field starts empty.

Settings reset after an update. A software update occasionally clears the APN. Re-enter data.lycamobile.co.uk and the MMS values.
