Public bug reported:
Asda Mobile APN settings take precedence over Vodafone UK in MBPI. This
happens because both operators have the same (MCC, MNC) tuple and Asda
appears first in serviceproviders.xml.
This is a problem for ofono, as it always takes the first found operator
by default. This will be solved in the future as we will use the Android
APN DB instead of MBPI, and we will also provide a way to edit the APN
(see LP#1225174). However, for the moment we should move
<name>Asda Mobile</name>
<gsm>
<network-id mcc="234" mnc="15"/>
<apn value="asdamobiles.co.uk">
<plan type="prepaid"/>
<usage type="internet"/>
<username>web</username>
<password>web</password>
</apn>
</gsm>
to somewhere below
<provider>
<name>Vodafone</name>
<gsm>
<network-id mcc="234" mnc="15"/>
...
</provider>
in serviceproviders.xml, as there are obviously much more users with
Vodafone UK than with Asda Mobile UK.
