I pushed the stock mms.apk from 2.1 to my sense hero and it resolved my keyboard lag but now i cant send pix, I can receive any suggestions?

Google really needs to fix the Software KB on their phones. Even with the auto-correct, it needs work.
It doesn't learn your typing styles like the iPhone does. If i type in a phrase or a word every time after a certain word, it still doesn't learn to correct to that word.
For example, it sounds like a stupid example but.
If i type in "hello" 10 times a day, and type in "yello" by mistake, it will auto correct to "yellow" because it predicts what I am typing, instead of going to "hello"
their is no way to have spell correction turned on with prediction on also.
And to everyone who is using the stock HTC Mms, I highly advise uninstalling it and downloading the android 2.1 stock Mms, it really fixes the lag, its virtually gone, I take no credit for this I am just posting it for more people.
step 1.
Enable USB debugging, Applications>development.
Connect to pc.
type:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
rm Mms.apk
reboot
Now keep in mind this will uninstall the Messaging app, so you will be stuck with the Mms unless you back it up.
then turn phone off, go into recovery and flash the attached Mms.zip and
now you have the stock messaging app.
I take no responsibility for any problems, but this all worked perfectly for me

Just restore the nandroid I'm positive you made before you flashed this.
Hi, I am the one who posted that, and sorry that for your pic messaging isn't working.
I don't send or receive pics very often and just sent myself a test pic message and it worked fine.
I would recommend turning your phone on and off, and then installing chompsms or handcent from the market and try sending a picture message using those applications.
I also can search for the HTC Mms.apk and attach it here, however when you go to install it from say astro browser it will locate the stock Mms.apk and think it is already installed. But you can try.
Also does it give you an error message or does it not give you the option to send?
Please give details on what it does, and I'll try and help ya fix it.
Do you have wifi enabled, the stock (AOSP) MMS.apk wont send or receive MMS (SMS work fine) while connected to wifi, disable your wifi connection and try it again.

I didn't know that..Hopefully that fixes it though
Hi:
After Froyo update my texts no longer send. To me, everything appears normal, sends normally etc, but the recipient never receives them. I am receiving sms normally though.
Any thoughts? I'm desperate to get this fixed.
Thanks so much!
EDIT: MMS seem to work fine, it is only standard sms which do not work.
Anybody? Any suggestions at all would REALLY be appreciated.
Thanks again!
thats weird, mine in ok after the update. but before I update to froyo, I factory data reset my phone. did u try it?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Check the message center number, I use the aosp mms.apk so im not sure how to do it on samsung mms.apk...att has a device tutorial on their website, might be able to use it and find out...I use to work tech for att and 99% of the time if you are able to receive but not send, its the msg center number...its something like +13123149810 ..if I remember correctly (might be wrong but check)
EDIT
here try this ... http://www.wireless.att.com/answer-center/solutionDisplay.jsp?solutionId=KB115194
EDIT 2
also make sure its not the recipients fault, (problem with their network..etc..try sending a sms to yourself, and try sending to different people on different networks) ..its probably the msg center number, but just to make sure...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
My wife was having a similar problem after upgrading to Froyo, but only when sending to certain contacts. Not all. We ended up noticing that some of her contacts numbers looked like +xxx-xxxx. When we added a 1 after the plus (so +1-xxx-xxxx), it started sending correctly. Kinda weird, but it worked for us. So check your numbers and maybe either remove the + or add a 1 before the area code and see if that works.
You can try taking out your SIM card, putting it onto an older ATT phone. Send the it a message and make sure you receive it , send one as well. Then put the SIM card back into the other phone. This method worked for me when I had similair issues.
Take all parentheses and dashes out of the contact numbers - 8001234567
Trust me, it will work.
If all of that fails, swap the sim card with a friend. See if texting works with his sim card. I know it sounds weird, but my daughter had a similar problem with her samsung phone. It turned out to be the sim card.
Hi Everyone:
Thanks so much for your replies. Sadly none of them seemed to do the trick for me.
I am going to try a hard reset, since nothing else seems to work. I just haven't had time to re-install everything, so I haven't done it yet.
Thanks again!
PS: If that fails, is there a way to re-flash the froyo update from AT&T, I originally flashed through Keis mini, but it will not let me do it, since I am now up to date as far as it's concerned.
Hi Again:
I just discovered that sms do send if I use Handcent, or any other 3rd party software to send them.
Is there a was to re-install the stock messaging app only?
Thanks!
whenever i download an app via android market web store, or send a link from chrome to phone, my phone will NEVER receive it.
it has worked flawlessly before, but seems to have stopped after i rooted.
any way to fix this?
phone: nexus s
Sending links to your phone requires an app called Google Chrome To Phone. You need to start up the app and agree to the terms before it will receive links, so give that a shot, even if you feel you have done that before.
Both sending links and having apps automatically installed rely on a Google Talk connection. You'll want to also check if Talk is connected as well.

i've used chrome to phone many times before, and have uninstalled/reinstalled on desktop and phone, logged in with another account, and nothing is working! i've also downloaded many apps from android market web store with no issues until recently when i rooted.
and it worked before without me being signed into google talk.
Try to reinstall the market can work in it
You may want to make sure you can log into Talk just to confirm the talk connection is working for things other than push. But if you know that already works...
I think it's time to go back to your Nandroid backup you took before rooting. If you're using a custom ROM, it may also be worth taking a backup and going back to stock to see if that improves the situation.
Then when you try rooting again, just test C2DM every now and then to isolate the step that causes things to stop working properly.

i had same problem try to reinstall market
lol I have no idea I'd my talk connection is working or not. when i launch talk, there is a little 'x' button beside 'Offline' under my gmail account, and when i sign in, the 'x' button is still there, although i have seemed to sign in. i dont have any contacts in google talk so i cant test if its properly working.
will try redownloading market to see if that works as well, thanks!
ill save unrooting to a last resort i guess :/
update:
ive tried redownloading market, but nothing changed. when i downloaded an app from the android market on the desktop, i didnt receive it on my phone, although the button said 'installed' on my computer.
i've also tried removing my account from the phone, and then downloading an app. the market (on desktop) still said 'installed' when there wasn't any phone linked to the email...
honestly i have no idea how to fix this.
Hey guys,
I just got my OPO today and have been loving every bit of it, but it seems that my SMS isn't working correctly. I checked the APN settings multiple times and even tried some of the preset ones with no luck. My issue is that I can both receive SMS messages as well as send and receive MMS messages, but when it comes to sending an SMS, I get a "Message note sent. Touch to retry" message. I've tried both the default app AND Google Hangouts with no luck from either. It's not a huge issue because I use mostly group chats and my gf can use hangouts, but it's still incredibly frustrating. Do you guys have any hints or tricks I should try out? I seriously love this device, but I am going crazy over the SMS issue.
I'm running the stock CM11S rooted with TWRP 64GB model on AT&T. Mobile data, LTE, everything else works. Just not actually sending SMS. I thank you for the responses ahead of time.
Hey @Bliznade.. .i see you posted about this sms issue. I am also having exact same issue now with my oneplus. Did you manage to find a solution of your issue? If yes, then can you share it with me? It is driving me crazy.
OR if anyone else can help me here?
Guys, basically you have to get the apn that is used by AT&T. Idk if you already have that apn, but the preset ones are made for the T-Mobile bands not really AT&T as I know it.

Yes, I was! It was actually Google Voice setting itself up wrong or something and after I factory reset my SMS/MMS was working fine. I turned off Google's auto-app-restore and installed only the apps I needed and one at a time, trying SMS inbetween, since I knew it HAD to be an app if it worked after a factory reset but didn't after setting up my phone. I'd say if you have Google Voice to uninstall it completely. Some setting in there messed up my phone. If you don't have Voice installed, honestly the best thing to do is factory reset and makes sure SMS is working, then install each app one at a time. I know it sounds like a lot but that's what worked for me.
If that doesn't work, this is what OnePlus's customer service had to say. It was seriously a lot of back and forth, and they were incredibly helpful, even if it didn't fix my issue, it might fix yours, so I'll post out conversation below:

I got my device today, the 64GB sandstone black, and put in my AT&T sim card. The phone worked as usual-or so I thought. My data works. 4g LTE on the wireless network, group MMS works, and I even receive SMS fine. But I'm not able to send out any SMS for some reason. I get left with a "Message not sent" notification. I tried this first with the stock app then tried Hangouts and neither worked. I checked my APN and everything seems to be correct. I'm just at a loss, as it's odd that I can receive both SMS and MMS and even send MMS but I can't send out SMS. Is there something I can do to resolve this?

Hi Jacob,
Let's try a few things to help you solve your SMS problem.
First, turn off your OnePlus One, carefully remove the SIM tray, and then power on your OnePlus One. Let it finish booting up. Obviously it will say there is no SIM inserted, cause there isn't!
Next, turn off your OnePlus One again. Carefully put the SIM tray/card back in the same way you took it out and power on again. Give your phone a few minutes to register on the network and get settled. Now, try to send an SMS, see if it works.
If we are back to square one, I'm going to have to gather a bit more info. As you probably already know, this problem is typically APN related. Are you using the PTA APN on At&t?
Would you mind downloading an SMS app called Textra (free) to see if you can send an SMS using this app please? Let me know if any of this stuff works, or not. Thanks.

Alright, I tried all of the steps you gave me and it didn't work, so I tried again waiting longer in between each step and no luck. I also tried Textra and upon hitting the send button got an immediate notification that the message failed. I realize this seems to be a very specific problem because I've searched all over the internet and I've come up with no solutions. I posted in multiple forums with just one reply from someone else with the same issue. But since putting the ticket in I've also tried inputting the correct AT&T SMSC in all 4 formats to no avail. Every time I press update and re-enter it goes back to the old, which is in fact one of the correct SMSC's for AT&T (the one in quotes) with a ,145 tailing it (not sure what that's for). But any information you need I'll be glad to provide, and I greatly appreciate your response. I've been living off of Facebook messages and group chats the last few days, haha.

Hey Jacob,
Cool, thanks for enduring a little troubleshooting and glad you understand the language of tech. Just to remove another obvious layer of doubt, please make sure you have updated to the latest version of CM via OTA. The fact that you can receive SMS messages makes this an interesting puzzle to solve.
For our next attempt, we will try something a little more drastic before I ultimately suggest a factory reset, but lets put that on the back burner for now.
Go to settings/apps and then swipe right 2 times to reach the 'All' category
For each of these apps: Phone/Messaging Storage , Messaging , Hangouts , and com.android.smspush
Perform this process: Force stop, Clear cache, Clear data
Do a restart when you are done and fire off an SMS when you are rebooted to a stable state. Any luck?

Alright, no luck with that either, so I just sucked it up and did a factory reset. I tried sending an SMS immediately after and it worked, so I thought I was good. But then after I allowed Google to install all of my old apps, I tried it again and no luck. But I did notice when Google Voice installed, CM asked me if I wanted to use Voice+ (or something along those lines) and I said yes, chose my Gmail and allowed it to access my G+ info, but after that it asked me which email to use again and wouldn't go away until I clicked out of it. Then I had to swipe the notification away, so I figured Voice might be the culprit, uninstalled and voila, working SMS.
So maybe something in the Voice settings was messing things up, or maybe the CM Voice+ thing messed it up since it worked fine on my old phone. Not sure, but I'm happy to have fixed it. Everything works great now! And even though we weren't able to fix the problem through the troubleshooting steps you provided, I realize this was a difficult and very specific and local issue.

Well I got to know the real reason behind it. It is Google voice but you don't need to uninstall it.
When you install Google install, there's an extra setting of voice+ in connection settings. (click more in connection settings to get it). If you enable voice+ which then says it'll use Google voice to send all sms from handset, then your sms won't work. If you disable it, then sms work fine just as before.
So no factory reset or uninstall of Google voice is required. Uninstall of Google voice worked bcoz it removes that voice+ setting as well.

Parvinder25: Could you perhaps elaborate on exactly where these "connection settings" are located? I could not find them anywhere within the Google Voice app. I'd like to keep using GV for its visual voicemail feature, however it seems to completely disable my ability to send MMS messages (although they do send after GV is uninstalled). I've located a toggle to receive text messages either within google or through the messaging app, however the messaging app was already selected. That would be the only toggle I could locate within GV that remotely relates to messaging. Thanks in advance.
Hello Parvinder,
It was glad that you have resolved this issue, i am also facing similar issue with my One Plus One mobile - MESSAGING. I am using AT&T network. I couldn't fine Google Voice+ in the apps or settings. I can just see Google Voice but, i am not able to find which setting needs to be disabled or Uninstalled? Could you please provide exact navigation for the same would be great help for me and other users on this blog.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Venki
I use Google Voice as my main phone number and I never had a problem just installing the Google app and having my calls routed through it, but on this phone a get a "Call Not Sent" error. I searched and it seems this is an issue with other Huawei phones, but didn't find any solution. Any ideas?
Can anyone test to confirm it's an issue? Would flashing a Gapps package help?
maybe, cuz flashing gapps package would make them system apps. just make sure u have enough space left on your system partition...

I deleted some system apps and installed open gapps mini. No luck, still getting the same error. Is it possible to replace the phone apk (not dialer), or is that too tied to the hardware?
I've been using the phone for a couple days now, and I'd hate to give it for such a small (but fundamental) bug...
I found a solution: make Google voice a system app

please explain
i still can't figure it out
Actually it may have been a fluke... I placed one single call and confirmed with the other party it was my Google voice number. Now it isn't working again.
I think I may have fixed it. I copied in some telecom files from AOSP. So far I'm like 5 calls and 2 reboots in and it's holding. I'm going to try to update to the new L-29 OTA, root and then follow the same process. If it works, I'll post the ROM. If it's like what I'm on right now, it's a very nice mix of EMUI and AOSP since most of the Huawei stuff is gone, except some of the handy features, and all the Google stuff is loaded and working.
maybe you could also include a howto, which files to add where so that others may cook up their own emui/aosp mix
Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
To be honest, I'm really not 100% sure, I kind of brute forced through the testing. What I do know: replacing a couple telecom framework and binaries from the 6P factory image (figured might as well use this), and installing Google voice as a system app, I have gotten it to work every time (for me) as long as it is set to prompt for every call. If set to "use Google voice for all calls", it breaks. My guess is it's a timing issue (emui telecom not giving Google voice the time it needs to make the connection).
I'll attach the ZIP file with all of the telecom components I used (NOTE THAT USING PRIV-APP COMPONENTS -IE TELECOM.APK, SEEMS TO CAUSE A BOOTLOOP).
Also, here is a link to my TWRP backup of my current system. It is 152 with a full Gapps package, Google voice as a system app and the telecom components Frankensteined in. Hopefully it will work on your devices, but just in case it bricks it I won't be giving out my address, least I get picketed

Still no real solution. The ask every time trick works without having to do anything with making Google Voice a system app and it only works 90% of the time.
Can anyone else confirm this issue? I'm discussing it with the vendor I purchased from, they're claiming it works perfectly

This is an old post with little activity, and yet I have this same problem. I have tried all the app setting and permissions, the battery setting etc, but the Mate 8 seems incompatible with Google Voice. The app install fine, sets up normally, and incoming calls to my Google Voice number work. It is just dialing out. All dials get the message "call not sent" and the dialer screen returns to befor the call was placed. The log also does not show an attempted call. I have tried alternative dialers from the play store, but none work. Has anyone solved this, or are there just very few people using Google Voice with this particular phone.
I've been having this same issue and have had the best results just setting it to "ask every time", no other tricks needed.
