The Ultimate MCC-MNC List for the USA

Correction: 310-380 is still active in many parts of the country.

This is true, I can still connect to this network in Kansas City.

310-150 on Cingular seems extinct now. All of NC-SC is now 310-410

Former Triton PCS areas that overlap with existing CellularONE areas in Virginia have been renumbered into 310-15. For example out in Front Royal or Spotslyvania County/Fredericksburg you'll find the former Triton PCS operating under 310-15, the old BellSouth Mobility DCS MNC. This is probably due to Triton PCS reading 310-49 in areas they still operate such as North Carolina.

Also 310-38 is still very much alive in the Washington/Baltimore region.

310-38 is alive and well in Washington state as well.

sry this is noobish but what are these numbers for? do i need them? how would i go about adding them to my phone if i do need them.

thanks

You don't really need them but your phone does; what the phone does, if your area has multiple GSM networks, or if you are driving along and your phone has to change from one network to another. Well, these numbers are what the phone actually uses to look up what networks are available for it to use; Cingular for instance doesn't have it's equipment broadcast "Cingular" out over the air... it broadcasts 310-480. Your SIM card has a list of what network numbers are called what, and that's how the phone knows to show "Cingular" onscreen. Usually you can edit this at least a little through a debug screen... when I had my Siemens S46, when AT&T Wireless' towers here switched to Cingular towers, my phone just showed "310-480" on screen until I found a menu to type in that 310-480 should display as "Cingular". Interestingly, some other network ID was already in there to display as "CINGULAR" (all caps) but I never saw that come up.

I recently was just able to get into seeing My Network List on my RAZR. I would really like to add to my Network List but it tells me its full. I would like to add Eastbrooke since my parents live in their coverage area and its where I'm originally from I would like it to be displayed. Is it safe to delete any of the numbers in the list or is that possible? I just got this after my RAZR crashed trying to activate AIM and I had to reflash with a monster pack and I think this is a neat thing to have esp using CellularOne Dobson. When I leave my area it will say Extended Area and have the triangle when I enter Cingular when I enter Eastbrook it would stay as CellularOne but I haven't left my service area since my phone crashed which was this past Saturday. Just was wondering if it was possible to add thanks!

Yes, it's safe to delete the unwanted networks from the network list and add the ones you want, however if you turn off your phone for any reason the changes might/will be lost. I have removed entires on the network list without any problems and added my own.

310-250 T-Mobile <-- old VS MNC retired in favor of -260
310-260 T-Mobile <-- old VS MNC retired in favor of -260

310-250 is actually still used in Hawaii
310-260 is not retired.

[Parrot Squawk]

OK..I give up...
What are these numbers all about? and how does knowing them help me?

[Booot]

ok..

I have an unlocked ROKR E1. I get no service and it says emergency only. I go to settings < network < network list. I get cingular wireless at 310-990, Cingular at 310-410, 310-980, 310-170, 310-380, 344-930. I have many more, but I want to use Cingular or T-Mobile. I used to get T-Mobile service before this happened. I have a Cingular SIM and Cingular plan.

When I go to "availible networks" it says T-Mobile at 310-260. So I guess I need to use T-Mobile since its all that is availible. Correct?

My network setup is at Band - Automatic, Type - Automatic, Speed - Medium.

I dunno where I go from there. When I press register, nothing happens.

Please help me get A signal...I just want to be able to make calls for a change.

Thanks

Nobody can help you here since roaming is controlled on the network-side.
One of three options...
1.) Buy a repeater.
2.) Move over to T-Mobile.
3.) Move to somewhere with better Cingular coverage.

One thing you can forget about for sure is using the T-Mobile network to receive/place calls. The only call you can make is the call to 911 since that's required anyways by Federal law.

I still have warrenty...If I send it to Motorola, can they fix it? My phone works everywhere except my city...

Is there a map with these codes? I'd like to load up on some of these before I go to certain areas of the country. Or, at least associate each code with a state.

[ForeverUnknown]

310-170 is still very very active is SoCal.

That's impossible, because States may have more then one active GSM network.
For an example in California there are four GSM networks throughout this State.
Where are these certain areas you want the network codes for?
