[Q] Is there a way to make/add your own smilies? - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Like let's say I wanna use those rage faces as smilies, is there a way to make them part of my smiley list or do I always have to attach them as an image?
Captivate seems to have a problem with MMS and never sends/receives multimedia messages...
Any help appreciated

Well you could change them.
BUT: You are the only one that will see them that way. If you want the person you are sending the message to see them you will have to sent them as an mms.
You could check the website of your mobile provider and see if your apn settings are set up correctly

MMS Question; Newb Question

I never send MMS and I actually find them annoying when I receive them and have always ignored them. However, recently my best friend had a baby (Im the godfather) so he has been sending me photos and videos through MMS.
Here is my issue with At&t. It appears every time he sends a MMS I have to go to some website, enter a msg ID, and finally a password. The most annoying thing is that I can hardly ever see the photo without pressing refresh and videos do not work!!!
What the hell am I doing wrong and why is it so damn annoying. I would like to just simply open his message and see the video why does it have to be so damn difficult. I am sure there is a solution whether it is paid or free. Will someone please. I searched MMS, MMS issues, MMS password and I receive a lot of information regarding Arcsoft, which basically allows you to compose MMS, I think?
bump, nobody knows a way around this? weird
You can normally tell At&T how you want to get your MMS. Go to a phone shop and ask them to change it.

Can't receive Pic Messages on FUZE w/ T-mobile

I have a Fuze that's been unlocked to work for t-mobile. I've been getting help from you guys/gals on here (thanks a lot), but I need a few more tips.
1. I can't seem to RECEIVE picture messages from people (also, I think that I'm getting in my "inbox" any message that I sent outgoing??). Is there a setting I need to adjust, or is it a ROM issue? any other software that I can use to change/update my text messaging management?
2. I don't know if I have a regular or cooked ROM, and I don't know what version I have, do you know where to find this info out?
I'm not very technical, but I'm trying to learn.. please explain very plainly if you can...
Thanks.
I am on tmobile also with an unlocked fuze and get picture messages just fine. Can you explain more as to what is happening? do you get regular text messages? and is it only picture messages that you dont receive can you receive voice text messages?
[on a side note] I'm not sure what has been done to my phone since I bought it used. it looks as thought the att bloaware has been uninstalled, and I also have a Tab in setting that says "xbmod manilla fro xda dev, TouchFLO 3D 2.0 3737395.3" whether or not that might affect anything. [end side note]
I DO get text messages, and I've never been sent a voice text (I'll have to test this). the weird thing about my messages is that they show up on the main TF3d screen, however they don't seem to be anywhere in the folders
When I tried to test getting an MMS message with a pic added, I had my sister send me 2 messages. one with only text (just saying "hi") and another with only a photo added. They both show up on my main MESSAGES TF3d tab, and the MMS message says "Click to view MMS", however when I click on the message it takes me to menue with my conversations with my sister and there is NO SIGN of the MMS message, only the one that says "hi".
Thanks for the response.. I really want to figure this out.
BUMP
Somebody please help me fix this problem I have ROM At0mAng V5.4, and I just need to configure/setup my phone to work on t-mobile. If you know how to do this or have any idea please help

[Q]Boost EVO MMS (I Can Receive MMS But Can't Send)

What's happening guys? I've searched through forum after forum trying to figure out why my Boost EVO won't send picture messages and have yet to find a solution to my problem. I did the ##3282# thing, went to Advanced & changed the MMS Server URL to http ://mm.myboostmobile.com (I put the space between the http & the ://mm.myboostmobile.com because I'm a new poster so this site wouldn't allow me to post it due to possible spamming) & still haven't had any luck at all. I can receive picture messages with no problem, but when I go to send them, it appears as if they've been sent out, but the phone that they're sent to never receives them. I've tested this out myself by sending a few picture messages from my Boost EVO to my Cricket EVO, which has no problem sending or receiving mms, and it never receives the picture messages from the Boost EVO. Anybody have any suggestions? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanx
i have same exact problem
Yea im frustrated it seems nobody knows how to fix this im running ultimate droid 3.3 and everything works flawless except i can not send mms can recieve sms and send but no matter what ive tried as far as apps deleting file and other fixes somebody with more experince please help htc evo on boost mobile oh and the data fix ##data#does nothing wont even ask for msl which i have i hit send and everything nothing /
I tried for 2 weeks to get mms on my new Evo (flashed to Boost). I finally found a solution! I had to post because 1) xda-developers is awesome and 2) I'm so grateful to the original author of the solution (sorry I don't have the name or link for credit) I wanted to pass it along.
Sounds like you guys are running CM ROMs...##3282# doesn't work with CM, but don't worry, you don't need it! OK, ready for the crazy simple fix?? Here goes:
Download and install GoSmsPro from Market
Open the app and go to Menu>Settings>MMS Settings>APN Configuration
Check the Fill APN Configuration Manually box
MMSC = mm.myboostmobile (you know the rest)
Leave MMS Proxy blank
MMS Port = 80
Reboot your phone
That's it! You should now be able to send mms. Still trying to find a fix to receive mms directly instead of having to use web browser. If anyone has a solution please post!

There are just 5 posts in this thread and the first post spells out the mm.myboostmobile.com. I can't verify whether setting this in GO SMS Pro is sufficient or not. I did go and get GO SMS but I also did the ##DATA# >Edit>Advanced thing and changed the MMS from the sprint one.
I am getting MMS messages working in BOTH directions. IMPORTANT: At first I was having failures in sending. That was because I forgot to use the whole 10 digit number to send to. They appeared to be sent but they didn't go anywhere. Then I tried sending one to my own number which happened to be complete with area code. A couple seconds later I received it back. Shortly after that I got a message from Boost Mobile telling me that my Media Mail account was activated. So, it may be that simple. Half-working is not good enough.

I dont think boost will be willing to help if I tell them that I have an evo on their network... it sucks on the stock rom that my evo was flashed, mms works fine, and my data wont drop... but if i go with cm7 my mms will not send although it says it was sent and I can receive mms... ohhh and my data goes out every 10 min, so I have to turn 3g on and off to get it working again... but I dont want a sense rom, I love cm7...

OK so its a CM based problem. Make sure you don't turn background data off or mms will not send on CM based roms. The fact that your data keeps swiping is my mms won't send.
I am trying to solve this problem too. I have changed the address in the advanced ##DATA# menu but that doesn't do anything.
I have the 1/11/2012 Energy ROM installed, fresh install actually. Any suggestions?
EDIT: This seems to be related to the ROM, I nandroided back to my original rom and outgoing MMS works.
Not sure where that leaves me now though
if u would like to know the easiest way to do this message me and I will give the instructions. it doesnt require any other apps just your meid.

I think you solved this without knowing.
I just flashed my EVO 4G LTE to boost and everything was good short of being unable to send MMS over 3g (wifi was fine)
You posted to leave the MMS Proxy blank.
So I went into EPST and made sure that mms destination address as correct and then wnet nad set the mms proxy to blank and now I can send mms over 3G.

SMS Google Hangouts

Every time I try to send a text message, weather its just a text message or a text message with a picture attachment it will not go threw. It just stills their, then either says "Failed to Send" or it says "Retrying" . So far I really find this new Hang outs rather annoying. Do you have to modify something in your phone settings for this to work? I'm on Tmobile. The person I am sending it to, has an Iphone 5 and is on Sprint.
Is your phone newly activated? How long has this persisted?

I also have the N5 on T-mobile. Earlier today i couldn't send any SMS to a person, nor reply to group threads. Maybe there was something with their servers? It was really aggravating me. I thought it was the phone.
Are your APN settings incorrect? If they are, your picture messages will never go thru properly because of improper phone setup. I had this issue until I realized I had mistyped a character in the APN settings. Once I corrected it, everything worked fine.

Group messaging doesn't work correctly/Can't download MMS

Hi guys....I have a HTC One M8 which is unrooted and running Lollipop which is great for the most part but I can't figure out how to set up group messaging and more recently it won't download any MMS I recieve.
I wanted to try and change the settings for group messaging in ChompSMS but can't figure it out. Right now, when I'm part of a group text, each message shows as a single text from the person that sent it, and when I reply it only goes to that person, not the group. I have tried changing some of the settings but nothing seems to work. I am sure this is an easy fix and feel kinda dumb for not being able to figure it out. I tried my other sms apps as well to see if it was a chomp problem and it's the same for all 3.
When I was trying to figure out the group messaging problem on my own I apparently changed something in the settings because now whenever I recieve a MMS I get a message saying "Can't download MMS - Check your APN settings". Again I have tried messing around in Chomps settings and haven't gotten it working. Also again this goes for Textra and the stock app as well. Please help!
So....nothing?
Is this just a really stupid question or what? I don't know why no one responds to my posts. I've posted about it in 2 other forums as well and no responses anywhere. I have searched this problem as well and found other people asking similar question and haven't found any helfpul responses. I can't imagine no one knows how to fix the problem...someone help! Please!
