I have been having problems lately after installing cm7 with being able to receive mms ... I can get some but most of them say that the media was not included due to a size restriction .. any ideas whats going on?

Just wondering if anyone else with no data is receiving mms with no data I've already gotten like 3 pic messages which I usually ignore because I can't download them, but somehow I can now, tried to send though and that didn't work, anyone know whyz, I'm on a g1 btw
I know if I try to send mms over wifi, it just sits and spins until I delete the message. But I noticed today, that if I forget that I'm on wifi and I try to send an mms, I will be unable to send mms even after I switch back to data...unless I do a hard reboot. Can someone explain why this happens?
I've never experienced this, try a different ROM maybe?
Are you using CM7 or a CM7 based ROM? It's an issue because it can't send over wifi so it switches to data to send it.
I"m actually running a rom based off ota 2.3.3
Hmm. Not sure then.
EDIT: duhh i should have seen your sig. HAHA dude you have 666 posts. Never post again.

I'm not sure why, but I totally know what your talking about. I'm using the same ROM as you & I tried couple others, but for some reason I don't have that much of a problem on EB 1.07. It still takes a while to send, but it doesn't require me to switch wifi to data & I don't have to reboot.
i am also using EB 1.7 and i for the life of me cant get mms to send when i am connected to wifi..
i know that mms cannot and will not send over wifi.. it actually has to switch from wifi to data to do the send. but EB 1.7 will not switch for me.. also cannot receive mms while on wifi either..
i really wish someone could get this fixed.. the rom is awesome!! but i do not understand why the creator thinks this is a problem that dont need fixed? it is a major pain in the arse.
either thinks its not an issue or it is a issue that hasnt been figured out howto fix? not quite sure what the scenario is? dont get me wrong really appreciate the time and effort on this rom! its bad ass! but wish the mms issue was fixed P
to verify this i got on my wifes stock phone and watchedit switch from wifi to data to send and receive a mms... my 2.3.5 with EB 1.7 JUST SITS THERE ON WIFI AND NEVER SENDS OR RECEIVES A MMS... oops sorry about caps.

Same here. I'm on EB 1.7 as well. Is there any fix for this??
I had to download the stock MMS from the WeaponG2x page to get mine to work.
The roms that youre using have the cm7 mms app installed on them. Cm7 mom's does not allow you to receive/send mms over wifi. You have to install the stock mms if you want to send/receive over wifi. The download link is in the weapon forum page 168.

or just on the main post, with the other downloads available, but nice dedication to find the exact page for them lol.
Hello everyone, wondering if anyone knows why I can't send MMS...I'm running liquid Rc9 and the MMS app that came with that would keep getting an error "Invalid Destination address" every time I tried to send an MMS so I switched MMS apps and its doing the same thing...any help please?
Try turning your data on.
Greetings,
My son has a Nexus 5 that I recently rooted for him. He is running the stock 6.0 rom. He is having times when he can not receive MMS messages. It will just sit there downloading. This was a problem before he was rooted. I had him try messenger instead of hangouts & that worked for a while but started again yesterday. After I rebooted, it seemed to work for now. Any thoughts? He also has a similar problem downloading torrents. Sometimes it works & sometimes nothing will work. Would going to a different rom help? Maybe Pure Nexus or CM13. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The obvious thing would be the settings. Have you checked the MMS settings with your carrier's website? And (unless I'm badly mistaken) MMS works on data (in the UK at least), so it needs to be switched on to allow the phone to receive MMS messages.
Or do you mean that it's intermittent ("He is having times when he can not receive MMS messages"), in which case it may just be the signal?

I checked the setting to make sure he can receive MMS. Also, data is on & working. As far as the signal strength, if it was low would not all SMS & MMS not be received?

Pat, I'm an end-user as I guess you are, so I can't talk sensibly about the technicalities. I do know from experience that SMS and MMS are separate functions - you can receive SMSs any time that you have a signal, but if your MMS settings aren't perfectly configured you don't get the messages. On a number of occasions I've had a pop-up saying "You have an MMS message" but it wasn't downloaded until I specifically enabled data (even though wifi was already enabled).
Actually, that last sentence raises a question in my own head. If both wifi and data are on, Android will prefer wifi - I wonder if it actually disables data, or would an MMS still arrive even though wifi is overriding data? Maybe somebody who knows what they're talking about can help us both...
You didn't answer my question about whether it's intermittent. Has the phone ever received MMS? If so, when did it stop? If it has never received them, I would really double-check your carrier website and look particularly for different advice - my own UK provider's forum has a number of pages, and there are several different MMS configurations, all of them claiming to be the definitive settings...
HI All, I'm looking for help with my Sprint Note 5. It's unlocked and im using it for MetroPCS, Everything seems to be working beside receiving SMS and MMS. It wasn't working on stock or custom rom. I get calls ,can call out and send SMS and MMS but for some reason i cant send them. Would really like some help if someone knows what the problem could be. I also tried different messaging apps. Thanks.
