Android APN Enforcement

Question

Someone know if there\'s a programmatically way to use a specific defined APN on the device which is not the default one?

Thanks.

I dont think there is a way, even if there is one, the carrier could wipe it out with a software update. Also, for some carriers like AT&T in US, using a specific APN provides specific functionality, like getting the Subscriber number of that user (its a unique ID, not the phone number). So it may not be a good idea to force this change, as it will impact numerous other apps installed on handset.
