I'm using an unlocked LG Optimus 7 phone (Mango, build 7720) on the T-Mobile USA network. Aside from a lack of 3G support on the T-Mo USA network, this phone is really working great*!
...*except for MMS support.
For whatever reason, the built-in profiles for this phone do NOT include T-Mobile USA, which is really a bummer. I was able to test with an AT&T sim card, change the profile accordingly, and test MMS -- and that worked fine -- but no such luck with T-Mo USA... even with adding a new APN.
Has anyone figured this out? Since we have access to the registry via the MFG app, can we get in there and change the necessary values? MMS isn't the most critical function, but it is awfully nice to have.
Anyone??
Try this basically you need to set a flag to re-get the apn settings from your network.

Wow. That did it! I've tried EVERYTHING *except* for those little registry keys that you mentioned, and honestly... I only needed to change the "ConfigurationStatus" entry. Crazy!
For the record, I....
- Launched the MFG app
- Went to the Engineer Menu > Other Setting
- Opened the Edit Registry item
- Chose HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE from the 1. drop down
- Entered System\AutoDataConfig for the Input SUB_PATH
- Entered in each of the provided four entries for the Input KEY (and chose DWORD instead of String)
- Hit Query to find the current value
- Typed in the proper value (if needed) for the Input Data field and hit Set
- Hit Query one last time to verify
When all was completed, I backed out, turned off the phone, booted back up and tested. Voila! Working like a charm.

Glad that worked for you. I looked all over the place and found that info on some other site and was like hmm.. sure why not. And it did the trick. Glad it worked for you to.
does this need a data connection to work?
i don't have a data plan atm, and tried this using wifi.
it doesn't send or receive.

MMS does indeed require a data connection. Or more accurately a mms plan and the ability to use your carriers data connection.
100% worked
i have tried many options, it was this one wich worked with me
i am using Etisalat - UAE sim card with LG E900
many thanks for all
Wow!! This little magical reg-key helped me also, tried for days with HTC 7 Pro, for some reason connection app didn't work but this did the trick, thank you!

It's been working great, but for some reason I keep "losing" my ability to send/receive MMS messages. I'll go through the four registry values....
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AutoDataConfig]
"RunADC"=dword:1
"ConfigurationStatus"=dword:0
"Attempt"=dword:0
"MaxAttemptsAllowed"=dword:3
....and I'm finding that "RunADC", "Attempt", and "MaxAttemptsAllowed" all seem to have NULL values when I query them. "ConfigurationStatus" has consistently remained with a "0" (zero) value.
Anyone else see this behavior? Any fix?

My values are resetting too, but it happens as soon as I restart my device, so I dont even get temporary MMS ability... ConfigurationStatus and Attempt reset to 1. The others remain as the values I set them too.
I also tried some recommendations from another thread. No luck at all.

Hi guys,
I have the Palm 750v unlocked with my T-mobile sim in. I have setup the Internet connection etc but the new MMS/SMS package sets up different and I cannot set up MMS .
Need someone who knows the password for T-mobile UK MMS
Anyone with any idea , even if you copy down the vodafone settings that would give me a guide of what is different.
Cheers
moved to treo section
Try this works for me
Thanks Chrisboy
Have you managed to get the device to send an MMS?
I havent tried to be honest but i did with my Tytn and it didnt work, i assumed it had to be switched on by Tmobile
Chris
mms I can't get working currently.
A network error (0x150) has occurred.
First things does anyone know where the automatic settings are linked too?
They must link back to a file in the registry or maybe in the windows file.
manual settings I have tried (same settings that work on my tytn still no luck)
The menu settings are different to the ones on my TyTN.
Menu,Options,Advanced
auto / manual
select manual then edit
If anyone gets it working on tmobile please post.
Thanks

Treo 750v chrissyboy6969. I love the device.
Dude how do you get 1.1mb/s on the device, HSDPA is not enabled the most i can get is 300kb/s
Not enabled a thing just did a speed test on the device and I am getting over 1mb always best so far is 1.1mb tmobile uk sim card. I know the phone doesn'y have wifi but I can live with these speeds over GPRS.
Very strange, i am on tmobile and i had the tytn before this and my speeds were around the same with the tytn but with this i can only get 300kb/s do you have the vodafone standard rom as well and what do you use to test the speed
Thanks

Guys Paul at Modaco sent me this . Its from the registery I guess the Vodafone part is hard set into the registry.
I have tried this and it doesn't work . If I open it with Notepad the Tmobile settings seem wrong . Is it simply just entering the correct values and you are done?
Treo 750 Clear MMS Settings
Today just got an "unlocked" Treo 750v (Vodafone Version).
The MMS settings are buried in the registry. Cannot get to them via typical set up options.
There is no way I can replace Cingular MMS settings with Tmobile (My carrier).
If I go and make change manually, the changes do not take effect. The next time I reboot/restart phone these settings disappear.
I have found registry import files in different forums, but none seem to make change properly.
Any ideas?
Yea , it seems an issue and it does come from within the reg. I have to date no none fix . Maybe some of the other more techy guys could help on the other forums.
I received my unlocked Treo750v yesterday.
So far I have been successfull in getting everything working except MMS messages.
Currently, I have aquired what I believe to be all the necessary information in order to send T-Mobile USA MMSs:
Message Center Number: +12063130004
Email Center Number: 500
MMS Gateway address: 216.155.165.050
MMS URL: http://216.155.165.050/servlets/mms
Network Profile: Default
Some people have stated they were unable to get these settings to stay after restarting their phone. I am not experiencing that problem. The closest I can get to reproducing that error is that when i turn off the cell capabilities, the Message Center Number disappears. However the correct number reappears when I turn the cell functions back on.
I've taken a brief look at the reg file in T_Mobile_750v.zip

I use the same profile as my GPRS Internet but some people just add one under connections called Picture Messaging or something along them lines.
I took a look at the registry file and changed it and got everything working but when you restart the phone settings default to the original ones which cause message to stop send and receiving.
I also took some pictures of some speed tests as I am getting over 1mb speeds.
I am so happy with my Treo 750v it was a good buy everything that I want is now working. more pictures in my next post.
Tried what yo have and still sits there at 10%
Can you put some screen shots up of your network settings
Hey Guys
Really hoping someone could help me out here as I LOVE this phone and do NOT want to return it.....I unlocked an HTC Surround yesterday and was able to pop in my Rogers SIM and start using the phone. However, off the Bat it would not browse. I had to configure rogers APN (rogers-core-appl1.apn) initially. This allowed me to browse ofcourse. Suddenly I noticed I was unable to send MMS or receive them.
However - eventually MY MMS's will get to the receiption although I will get a failed alert, I on the other hand will NOT get any MMS's from senders. All calls are coming in as UNKNOWN CALLER.
I had Rogers do a network refresh on my SIM yet nothing has helped. I also installed the HTC App which updates the correct Carrier Profile settings, yet NOTHING hass worked
These are my only 2 grips with the phone, MMS and CID. Other small quircks (such as wrong time stamp) I can live with...
If any experts have ANY advice - I thank you in advance.

MMS will not work on unlocked wp7 devices because it's mms settings are confirgured for the locked carrier. There is no setting in the wp7 atm that will let a user change the mms settings. Hopefully microsoft will fix this issue in the next update.

Ensure your have CLIP (calling line identity presentation) provisioned on your account (In the HLR). I would assume this is what was checked when you called, but it might be worth checking 100%
I once had mine drop off for seemingly no cause. This resulted in every call coming in as 'Unknown Caller'
If this has happened to you, swapping phones would show the same issue.
refer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caller_ID
(CLIP can go by other names)
I'm interested to know the cause of this, if you can post when its fixed.
hmm caller id should work regardless of which network the phone is being used on. CID is all dependent on the network provider you are using.
as for mms setting, I think it's not crippled, ms just didn't have enough time to implement this feature prob.

Well I just popped the same SIM into my Desire Z which is also unlocked and CID is working..
I can live without MMS but to not have CID work will be an issue.
Do any of you suspect removing it and adding it will help?
This most likely is a silly q but with the Carriers is there a difference with iPhone CID and non iPhone CID?

Only 1 setting.
removing and re-adding will have no effect if its working in another handset.
Your phone is getting the 'info', but not displaying it.
Perhaps a hard reset is in order?
-- you can confirm a handset fault by placing in the original SIM and testing CID again
I've done a full restore through settings 3 times, is there another method?

toss the original sim back in it.
If it works its possibly due to the provider (i dont see how tho), or you were correct and its in some way linked (again, i dont know how this would be the case)
If it doesnt work, then something is wrong with the handset.
Im not sure if the hard reset from the menu is the same as resetting via holding down the volume keys (or whatever you do, method is in the FAQ thread stuck to the top of the forums)
Is the menu just wiping your personal data? or refreshing the OS Install?
How did you unlock it?
I'm in Canada as well...I wouldn't mind paying full ticket on a samsung focus and bringing it to Bell(wife can get a good plan with work), or a Dell Venue Pro or HD7 and go with Wind....

I have a colleague at work who also purchased the same phone and has not been able to get call display to work after unlocking it either. He is having the exact same issues - I do not suspect its a defective handset.
Over on the MSN forums - apparently it's caused by ADC which is disabled by default by Telus and it's locking to Telus's config, even if forced. Unfortunately, I need to get into the admin app but the method they provided is not for the HTC Surround

MFG is a hidden admin app on the phone. Here are the steps -- !!! use at your own risk !!!:
Go to the phone app
Dial ##634# and click Send
When prompted for a password type 277634#*#
You should now be at "Factory Menu"
Choose "Engineer Menu"
Choose "Other Setting"
Verify that "Set ADC" is set to Enable
From the "Other Setting" page, choose "Set network profile"
You should now be on the "Set network profile" page and in the bottom half of the window you should see a list of *.xml files. These appear to be the network configuration files.
Look at the filenames for the config files and take your best guess at which one to choose for your provider. I'm on AT&T and I fixed the MMS problem by choosing "_PROV_ATT_US_310_410.xml"
After you choose that *.xml profile, your MMS should be working.

you should be able to. i don't see why they would have an issue with this. most OEMs just reflash and refurb it.
Same CID issue here on Fido in canada.
Phone was sucessfully unlocked, data is working fine after APN configuration (don't care for or use MMS anymore)
But CID not working, is a biggie! Phone is going back as fast as it was purchased!
Sounds like it's a network issue. Rogers/Fido have problems but Bell (according to another post on XDA) did not. Bell and Telus have the same network.

Also - the MFG hack is not applicable to the HTC's apparently, it's only good for the LG's. I tried this already before returning it.
Ok guys, here is a temp fix for you to continue using the mobile hotspot. But I am not sure how long it will be able to work until it gets blocked.
Go to Settings
Mobile network
Access Point Names
New APN
set the name
set the APN to: epc.tmobile.com
save
after you save, select the new APN you created instead of T-Mobile data.
Anyone mind confirming?
yeah please confirm if this helped anyone

Bigger question is what is the new APN? epc has been the updated apn for a long time since the days of wap/internet2/3
ziddey just create the new APN with epc.tmobile.com and save it as is without any additional changes.

Actually, this does work. The only difference I can see between the APN that was on the phone and the new APN created is the following:
Original APN
APN Type: default,supl,admin,hipri
Newly created APN
APN type: Not Set
I have no clue what this means, but that is the only difference I see and the newly created APN does in fact work and allow me to tether over 4G.
Also, I had purchased EasyTether a while back to use on Sprint with my HTC Hero (before I learned to root a phone), and easytether also works using a USB cable.
Thanks to the OP for finding this!!
remove admin from apn type.
Found a possible issue with this fix. When I have the newly created APN enabled, I cannot send an mms. When I select the original APN and try and resend the mms, the mms goes through.
Anyone have suggestions?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
thanks for pointing that out jtress, will try to look into it.
edit: jtress i was testing it out and it does work with the current settings. i'm not sure why you are having problems with mms. does anyone else have this issue with the mms not going through?
I have no problem either
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
Does this still work? I've tried it and it didn't work for me when trying to go to amazon.com. I've also tried deleting the default apn and removing the apn type. I've even tried using wap.voicestream.com as the apn. So far nothing works.
My issue with the APN and not being able to send MMS, may have something to do with me being on Tmobile prepaid plan.
I can live with it this way. I very rarely use the tethering. So, if all I have to do is go in to the settings and switch the APN for the few minutes I use the tethering, I can live with that
tethering workarounds
Regarding the new tethering block, there are a few other workarounds that worked for me.
1) Change your user agent string to something mobile on your browser
2) Browse through an encrypted proxy (work VPN works great for me)
3) Use the internet for things other than HTTP and you'll be fine. (HTTPS works fine)
Confirm that it worked for me. I entered the new APN and restarted the phone and now it works like it did before. Thanks!
hey guys, does the usb tether still works after the update?
Wow I feel both dumb and extremely happy all at the same time but I got it to work! I never restarted the phone before so I guess my phone never properly set up the APN.
The way I got it to work:
1. Selected Default T-Mobile Data APN
2. Delete all of the information from the APN type
3. Reboot Phone
Thanks for reminding me to do the simple things!
Looks like the fun is over...
I had been using Wifi tethering for root users and it seemed to allow me to use it just fine. All of a sudden this morning it stopped working and I got a push notification to my phone about mobile hotspot access being blocked. Came here, found the APN settings in this thread and tried it. Worked for about 30 seconds before the same thing happened again.
Looks like they are being pretty hardcore about it now...
Anybody else experiencing this or know how to get around it still?
Bought my G3 last week, rooted, de-loated and applying Straight Talk APN to run, everything works great with the exception of mms. Even though, I swtiched to hangouts text messaging but still cant able to download any mms. Any idea or settings that might have missed. Highly appreciate it.

I had the same issue. You have make sure that APN type is left blank. This fixed the issue for me. I had to use APN backup then SQLite editor to remove "default" from APN type and restore the APN.
Hope this helps.
Adblock Plus also blocks MMS if you added that.

What does it mean by APN type. Just so you know there is an additional APN menu on Google Hangout(default messenger for me). I did not touch anything there, it's there by default. I have added ST APN and 4g LTE is working fine and also receiving regular text messages. Not sure what else I could check for. I am not using ADBlock plus also..

In the APN settings you should have an option for "APN type". Mine was always defaulting to "default,hipri" whenever I would try to set it up. If you can leave it blank without it defaulting back, you should be good. I had to make a backup of the APN then change the database and restore it to make it stick. I will try to post some images for you.

Adblock Plus also blocks MMS if you added that.

That was my issue. Stupid AdBlock. Lol. Thanks.
Not having a lot of luck with this phone.
I had a thread here last week where LTE was not working with Ting (Sprint). I ended up moving to Page Plus (Verizon), and LTE is fine now, but I can't send or receive texts. I tried my SIM in another phone and everything worked correctly.
Is it possible there's something leftover in the phone that is still trying to use Sprint for texting? Is there some sort of carrier reset I can do or APN I can adjust? I'm hoping to avoid a factory reset but I may end up having to do that if I can't figure this out. Page Plus support was not able to find anything wrong.
Any help is appreciated.
Have made sure the APN settings are correct for your carrier?
I think so. It just has 'vzwinternet' in there and an MMS address and port, and MMS works fine.
Researching some more, it might be due to the SMSC? Mine is set to:
"+19037029920",145
Which is supposedly valid for Verizon. There's another more common value that I tried but it did not work and it gets reset to the above when I reboot.
SMSC matches what I have....
You can double check the APN config here

Hmm, that all matches as well. I think I'll probably just try the factory reset tomorrow, I don't have much on here yet.
Thanks for the help.
