APN settings should be on your phone depending which service providers u get the phone from. In Singapore all android phones are unlock. But u may not have the APN settings if u did not get it from your service provider. For eg, the APN inside is e-ideas or IDEAS which means the settings is from SIngtel and only works for Singtel customers. If u are a Starhub or M1 customers, u need to get the APN of your service provider in order to surf internet, read email, mms.
